Newbie help - Still learning

[philb]

Hi all, I've been reading up on this forum and you all seem very helpful so I thought I'd join up!
My other half was smoking for around 8 years and managed to stop of her own back, due to stressful times she had started smoking again. Her cousin gave her a cheap e cig and it made such a difference, having no desire to smoke the real thing!
The problem is it was damaged and now shes back on the fags!  She does not like trying to figure out which one is best etc so its my job to get her back on the ecigs and away from the nasty fags.

I've been looking at what you all recommend on here and I'm looking at the intro-vison kit from Vape Escape. www.vapeescape.co.uk/Basic-Vaping-Kits/Intro-Vision-Kit/Intro-Vision-Kit.html

I can't help but think I could do a bit better for the price? I know its not that expensive but she's a bit skint at the moment so needs something good for the money.

I was thinking of building one separately from the vapeescape website which would be better for a similar price or a bit more?

I considered the Evod 650 battery and the Vision V3 rebuildable clearomisers or the innokin Ce5?

www.vapeescape.co.uk/Deluxe-Vaping-Kits/EVOD-650/EVOD-650-Batteries.html

www.vapeescape.co.uk/Vaping-Spares/Clearomisers/Vision-Ego-V3-Rebuildable.html

www.vapeescape.co.uk/Vaping-Spares/Clearomisers/Innokin-CE5-IClear16.html

I know the battery has less mah at 650 but that would then mean in the future she could upgrade to the full evod kit? The other benefit would be already having rebuildable clearomisers to start off with.


I might just be talking rubbish but any help would be very useful.

Hi phil and mrs phil. Welcome to aaec. You are on the right track there. As starter kits normally we say the riva kit here www.vapeescape.co.uk/Deluxe-Vaping-Kits/VE-Riva-1100-Deluxe-Kit/Vape-Escape-Riva-1100-Deluxe-Kit.html or over at ukecigcabin www.ukecigcabin.com/RIVA_1100_Deluxe_Kits/cat1893785_1878321.aspx in various colours. Sadie at ukecigcabin has some great kits in different guises. Well worth a look round her shop.

Budget kit i usually give out is this www.vapeland.co.uk/e-cig-starter-kits-10-c.asp official vision batteries and clearos all for £26.99 bargain.

Super-Shiny our resident vape god has a full list of various kits.

Just to add the vision v3 clearos are great my oh uses them. Have had a few leak now though. The innokin ce5 are spot on. Dual coil so more throat hit and vapour although they get through a lot of juice but the heads seem to last way beyond the heads of other clearos.

There is also the evod to consider as well www.vapeescape.co.uk/Vaping-Spares/Clearomisers/EVOD-BC-Clearomiser.html not to my taste but they do look smart.

There is more but i dont want to bombard you with stuff straight away.

Hi philb & Mrs Philb

Those Vapeland kits that Roscopecotrain linked to are very good value and very easy to upgrade as they have standard connectors.

As to the cost with 20 Stinkies costing nearly £8 a pack in 4 days you'll be saving money and the kit should last for many months, figure on about £10 a week to switch to Vaping for a 20 a day smoker rather than near to £60 a week for stinkies.

Wow thanks for your welcome fast response and help its very much apreciated!
She's cutting down to about 10 a day or less at the moment but she's not the friendliest to be around like this She does not mind spending a bit more but things are a bit tight at the moment, so i was hoping to find a kit that would be cheap enough with good quality.

roscopecotrain I like both of the suggestions above and also the evod clearomisers after having a quick read up on a few reviews they seem to go down well. Why don't you get on with them?

I'm thinking of making my own kit just because she already likes the clearomiser set up so does not need to trail carts and one battery would be enough charging each night from experience with her old one, also she already has the charger. Instead matching the same money on a better battery/clearomiser set for around the same price as the budget starter kits?

Please dont take this the wrong way but she has already gone back to smoking when her cigalike broke. If you just buy 1 battery and the same thing happens then she will just go back to smoking again. If you buy a kit or if you do up your own kit please please buy at least 2 batteries and at least 2 clearos and if you have the money a spare charger as well. That way if anything does go pear shaped with any of your kit you have back ups to keep her going until you order any replacements.

Ah the famous evod. Not sure if i honest just didnt get on with it. This was before i could re coil my own heads mind. I am a mini and vivi nova fan through and through and recently a innokin ce5 fan phil.

On another note try not to charge your batteries overnight or when you are not there. Way to many bad stories from people doing that.

That will be the vapeland kits then. 2 batteries, 2 clearos, a charger as a spare if your one fits the ego style batteries as a possibility it wont and a little case to put it all in. Cant go wrong phil.

Definitely not taken in the wrong way I'll definitely be taking on your advise, I don't know much right now! I understand what you mean with the batteries I will add another one if I decide to make up another kit.

Haha ok they do seem to get great reviews to.

[philb]

I'm just worried that the clearo's won't be as good at the better branded ones? Just a lot of horror stories with cheaper ones leaking.

Yhe vapeland ones are the vision v3's you were looking at on vapeescape and if i am truthful the batteries are the same as the ones in the intro vision kit on vapeescape buy just lower mah and a lot lower price, sorry jason

Hi philb &

Everything that roscopecotrain said

VISION V3 EGO Starter Kits I started on these a couple of weeks ago after a recommendation; added with some RY4 juice and you'll be good to go. The good thing about the kit is you have 2 x batteries so there is less chance to go back (as rosco already said)

also have a look for 10ml juice so you don't end up with a flavour you're not sure of

[philb]

Ah so it does come with the v3's. Ok i'll go with that then. Is the vapeland juice anygood or is there a cheaper/better place to order from?

I bought my RY4 & Cappuccino juice from there and they are very nice

www.ukecigcabin.com has some really good "testers" of 10ml and I am just trying a fruit one of those and it is good too

Have a look here as there are a list of discount codes and everything
