Hello all, a question or 9

[smellybutt]

Hi,
I`m a smoker with 25 years under my belt (lungs) and after lurking for a few days have decided to take the plunge.
It`s very confusing but I`m getting there.
I`m in no hurry to start so equipment coming via the slow boat is no problem. I`m also a skinflint

Oh, before I go on, can I just say what a refreshingly friendly place this is. I`ve not seen the word TROLL once !!!. I guess we are all united in the same desire. Hats off to all that share their experiences.

I`ve pretty much settled on an Ego T 1100mAh with a CE4+ clearomiser. The `kit` comes in at £16.90 via Zainy.net

Now, the questions :-

Long wick or Short wick ???
How easy to get spares quickly (UK)
Any major advantage of CE4+ / CE5 / CE6 and CE9 ?

I`d really appreciate any input.
Cheers, oh and my username is not a reflection on my personal hygiene !!!!!.

Hi smellybutt, Welcome the answer to your question the wicks is realy down to preference,
the longer the wick easier capillary action as the wick is further down the tank if that makes sense,
shorter the wick the more you would have to tilt the tank when you take a vape,
as for to get spares I think pretty easy as most vendors in the UK stock these.

Long wicks for me , pain in the smelly butt rinsing the juice . seriosly you can get visions etc from zainy but I think they are crap too low res and it burns the juice . Since my last buy from zainy I have stuck with rebuildable visions from vape escape .. a bit more expensive but quality assured . saving a few pence isn't all worth it to be honest . Quality is much better .

Hi Smellybutt, Welcome to the Forum.

As Storm says, buy your stuff from a decent Vendor, like Vape Escape and you will save money in the long run.

I did and I am still using the same Clearomisers 6 months down the road.

Hi SmellyButt (like the name mate).

Dunno about the details of the clearo side of your kit as I don't really use them, but aside from saying welcome/hello the delivery service from vendors is amazing. Everything I've ordered has arrived within 24 hours (and I've used several). The service is top notch and they don't half put in the hours.

Hi & welcome to you !

I would personally advise you get your initial equipment from a reputable UK vendor like Vapeescape. At least then you can be pretty sure you are getting quality stuff.

We do all get stuff from China occasionally but most of us always have some spares to fall back on should they be DOA.

Hello and welcome - cant add anything helpful that's not been said - but I HAVE to ask - where on earth did you get that name from?!

Probably best not to ask

And Hi and welcome Smellybutt
As others have said, UK vendors are a better idea, it may be a few pence more but you get next day delivery and customer service as well as better quality as the vendors generally only stock good quality items because they want to keep their reputation in tact!

Hello and #welcome2# Smellybutt

As others have said you can'y beat the UK venders for service. There are a lot of good deals out there for starter kits. My mate just got one of these:

At £25.95 can't go wrong

Hi smellybutt!

I would also suggest that you would be better advised to support your local(ish) UK dealers

And yes, I love the name too

Hi and welcome

I would also recommend you get all your stuff from the likes of Vapeescape, I do and not only do you get faultless, speedy service, support UK vendors but you can use the AAEC discount code too!!

I use these...great quality and easy to replace

I find long wicks better, less chance of burning.

Good luck and congrats on your adventure into the vaping world.
