Newbie seeks advice

[lynxkat]

Hi There people. Was just going to buy an e-lites starter kit, but thought I would do a bit of research first and eventually found "you".
After reading for a few hours or more, on your Forum Posts, am I right in thinking the best route would be a Riva 1100 starter pack ?. I currently smoke a little more than twenty a day menthol super kings. Any advice welcome, thank you in advance.

Hello Lynx, nice to meet you

The Riva would be much better and work out much cheaper than the E-Lites!

Where are you thinking of ordering from? There are discount codes on this thread

The Riva 1100 kit is FAR superior to an e-lites kit, worlds apart in fact.

Hello and Lynx

[griffon10]

riva is a good kit

www.ukecigcabin.com/product/riva-1100-deluxe-kit-e-cig-titanium

or basically any ego kit will do to start
advantage of a kit is you get 2 batteries and 2 clearos plus some liquid to get you going

finding the right liquid for you is essential and i would suggest you but the small sample bottles until you find what you like.
and it won't necessarily be a tobacco liquid.
i smoked a pack a day for 45 years and gave up Jan 5th this year. Vaping worked for me straight away and have been cig free since then.
some just cut down and vape and smoke.
whatever works for you buddy.
Anyway good luck and welcome.
any questions just ask there are loads of knowledgable people on here and they will be happy to help out

Hi Lynx

Riva is the way to go. I (and many others) can recommend VapeEscape as an excellent vendor

www.vapeescape.co.uk/the%2Dve%2Driva%2D1100%2Ddeluxe%2Dkit%7E151

And, as griffon says, get juice

www.vapeescape.co.uk/grizwald%27s%2D5ml%2Dsamplers%7E292

And if you have any questions, just ask. They are a friendly bunch here

Hi, thanks for the welcome and advice. Yes I think I would get one via Vapescape.co.uk. Sorry if this sounds stupid, but does one buy the starter kit and some juice also, and then one fills up so to speak and is ready to go ?

[sleepyduck]

In a word, yes

Super-Shiny put together an excellent guide to using the Riva kit:

Exactly!!

Hi @lynxcat &

Hello & welcome Lynxcat

So glad you came to us before you bought an e-lite e-cig. A Riva or eEgo is so much better & works out far cheaper.

Hi Lynx welcpme aboard.
I started off on a Riva but now use an Ego twist with a Vivi Nova tank. Just keep reading and learning. You'll soon get the hang of it.

[lynxkat]

Thank you for all the advice and links, the Riva it is, now what colour and flavour shall I get ?, I am presuming the flavour should be menthol as I smoke them. Any ex menthol smokers please?

[sjs]

Hi and welcome!
The Riva is a great kit and a million times better than Elites!

If you're ordering from Vape Escape the code allabout will give you 10% off!

As for juices I hated menthol cigs but I do like the odd menthol juice! Don't buy huge bottles til
you know what you like and your tastes will change a lot in the first few weeks!

From Vape Escape I really liked Griswalds Artic Cherry and Artic Lemon menthols but don't be afraid to
try something away from menthol. I thought I wanted tobacco flavours when I started but never touch
them now! Griswalds Banoffee is lovely too if you fancy something different.
