So where to start!?

[svegad]

Hello All!
Am new to all this e-cig malarkey and have no idea where to start on finding the right ecig for me, so any help would be much appreciated!
I smoke about 10-15 cigs a day - richmond superking menthols!!

Hello & a warm welcome to the forum Svegad.

Are you looking for an ecig that vaguely resembles an ordinary ciggie or are you prepared to entertain something a little more adventurous in design?

[Chrissie]

Hello & welcome Svegad

As Perpy says, let us know if size matters

[svegad]

thank you for the replies and hello to you both :-)
hmm, well I have been thinking and for me I don't think size matters, as long as it does the job that's all the matters to me!

A big welcome to you swegad but believe me bigger is better.

Take my advice and buy a Tornado as you will eventually.

[Perpetua]

In that case Svegad, I'd suggest a Tornado or Riva - there's a demo video here of how they perform.



Suppliers, I'd suggest Liberty Flights using the discount code ECR69 at checkout for a 15% discount

Or Totally Wicked who are having 25% off for a few days

For juice, I'd suggest our James - buy a few small bottles of flavours you fancy at first, as your tastes may change as your taste buds adjust to not smoking.

thank you for your advice, it's much appreciated as I really had no idea where to start! Thanks also for the links, shall check them out now! Can't believe how excited I am about buying one!

[Chrissie]

Svegad, I remember how excited (& unsure) I was when I ordered my first e-cig. Part of me thought it might just be a useless gimmick - but it wasn't, far from it!

As well as checking out Perpy's excellent links, have a look at our photo & video thread to help you understand a bit more about some of the different models & how they work

ok so after a quick look i'm thinking the Riva sounds good, but which one - 510 or 901 - i can't seem to work out what is the difference??
Also have i got this right...I need the ecig, atomisers and carts, and then when the carts are used up I can refill them? sorry for all the questions but I want to get this right so I stand a good chance of quitting, who knew there was so much to know about buying a ecig!

[svegad]

thanks Chrissie, will have a look now!
would also like to say what a refreshing change it is to come across such a friendly and informative forum!

[Chrissie]

Svegad, it's sort of a million dollar question as to whether the 901 or 510 versions are the best

The only difference is the atomisers they use the 510 version tends to burn hotter so gives a better throat hit & on the other hand the 901 is smoother & you get more flavour from e-liquids with it.

A good starter kit comes with everything you need to get going - to begin with (But it's best to also buy at least a small bottle of e-liquid as well).

Yes, you can refill the cartridges many times over with e-liquid (juice) of your choice of flavour

Hello Svegad!




You shouldn't go wrong with a "Zentornegoriva" (There are so many versions of it we've amalgamated the names.) Whether you choose a 901 or a 510, you can buy adapters so that you can use either atomiser if you're not keen on the first or if you just want to try a different one.

I believe that if you are a menthol fan you could be in for a treat with James's (Paradise) minty juice - haven't tried it meself, but others here have raved about it.

Totally Wicked's 25% off sale finishes Monday night But their prices tend to be higher to start with, so a calculator is advisable

[svegad]

Well I've done it!! I have ordered the 901 and also some menthol, drum and mary jane from Paradise! Scylla, I take it the menthol flavour is the minty juice you're refferring to as that was all i could see?
Thanks for the advice all, now the long wait for it to all arrive!!

[Chrissie]

Well done Svegad - you shouldn't have too long to wait

[Scylla]

What a shame it's a weekend - James delivers like lightning usually, and most suppliers are pretty fast.

Whenever a newbie orders for the first time I'm on tenterhooks in case anything goes wrong or in case they don't like their e-cig - but we've had wonderful reactions from members over the last few months especially.

No-on could ever have been a heavier smoker than me, and I've not smoked for a couple of years so everyone must stand a good chance of success.

Actually, I'm dropping cos I've been up all night, excuse the ramble.
