where to begin?

[libby602]

Morning, I am new here so please be gentle  .  So I have decided to give this malarky a go and just don't know where to start.  I know I like the look of the cartomizers but apart from that that's it!!  I am a girly girl (well most of the time) and so would like something nice looking but that works well.  I have been smoking for 20 years +, so ideally something very close to 'smoking' (if you get my drift??).  I am so confused with what's out there ??? so thanks for any help you guys can give

Morning libby
as you are a girly girl i suggest dealing with ukecigcabin she provides a lot of girly stuff and a great service il post a link below the riva 1100 kit is normally recomended to start with as the 1100 is battery life which means it will last you all day atleast before you need to charge it unlike the cigalikes which only last an hour or two.

As for juices and flavours i recomend buying a few different 5m samples untill you find the perfect one for you.
good luck i expect many more responses to follow:)
and a warm welcome too

Hello Libby and welcome. Do you mind if your device is bigger than a normal cigarette? You will find battery life and prefomance are so much better if you steer clear of the cig-a-likes.

hi and welcome so pink and with a little bling it is then
we all start with a cig look alike but quickly move away from them i moved away within 2 weeks and thus waist loads of money
i suggest going strait in for the kill maybe an ego (pink or chrome) 650 with maybe an atty on the top little more technical but better end results
would love to suggest a vv ego like a twist but they are big and you will feel so self conscious you wont use it out side
and you will probably end up using a cig look like
look at some thing like this its a sort of half way house :)not used them personally but its a good starting point can be upgraded easily and looks the part

and if you purchase from this store we have discount codes

ok wanted to add my reasoning behind this
1 looks lady like
2 spare battery easily hidden in purse
3 spair atty heads 5 for £16 although with in a few weeks we will show you how to clean your old ones save money
4 easy to swop between flavors insert different cart and vape through the flavor change
can still use it whilst charging other battery
5 empty carts are cheep so easy to carry 1 or 2 with you out and about never get caught out
6 you can get a lanyard hand around your neck so you don't lose it or scratch it
in fact i might get one myself lol
oh no i got a new VAMO on its way
but this would suit my wife if only she would try vaping out
i better shut up now sound like a sails man

[libby602]

thank you all so much for the help and advise. Tbh I don't want one that looks like a cig, I'm thinking that my psych would think I may aswell be smoking and so probably wouldn't bother (cynical but true lol). Thanks again, keep em coming

Hello & welcome Libby

So glad to hear you don't want one that looks like a real cig

All the suggestions so far are really good ones

[genguskhan]

Hello and welcome
Everyone is pointing you to good stuff have fun

[lobeydosser]

Morning Libby. I too have to agree with the advice you have been given.

[mybad]

Hi Libby and welcome to the forum , you will most definitely get bombarded with suggestions get this get that ect, my advice would be to have a look on youtube and take some time having a good look at what their is about, it will give you a good idea of the size of what ecigs are out there and what they look like and how to use them.

Hi libby. Great advice so far. +1 for ukecigcabin. Best customer service around and so helpful.
Welcome aboard.

hopefully we will try stear you away from the down side of vaping where im sure we have all been
dry hits,leaking or messy refilling running out of e juice or just flat battery all these thing make you pic up the stinky s again
your hardest chose is the liquid and its strength
you wont find a liquid that taste like a cig don't even try there aren't any out there
maybe cheq out few venders on hear they have been happy to send out samples or do offers
and nic strength is down to you trial and error i myself vape 4mg very low but i vape between 5 and 10 ml a day heavy usage if i use higher i get nic overdose head aches and the shakes

[libby602]

Thanks for all the great advice, I will take it all on board

Hi Libby, welcome to the forum

I would suggest you go for the new EVOD starter kit:

The latest starter kits from Kanger with bottom coil technology.The EVOD is a perfect device to begin your vaping adventure. Vaping this device produces an amazing flavor hit with liquid being gravity fed on to the coil it will wick time after time after time. Simple to fill easy to clean and maintain this device will suit both new and experienced vapers.

Available in different colours (the Stainless steel is really nice) from SAFERCIGS for only £37.80 (with discount code "save10" added at checkout) in a kit which comprises of:

2 x 650mah Battery

2 x Evod BCC tanks

5 x spare coils 2.4ohms

1 x USB charger

Very good quality at a fantastic price.

If you are after keeping the tobacco taste, i have found that the ONLY flavor i have come across THAT HAS A GOOD SIMILARITY cigarettes is without a doubt RY6 from Safercigs, it tastes very much like "rollies", I would suggest that you initially go for 18mg or 24mg strength (don't start at too low a strength or you will not get a suitable amount of nicotine to subdue you cigarette craving).

Good Luck, REMEMBER - we all had to start by asking questions, and we are all here to welcome you to the vaping community and help you the best we can.
