Want to try e-cig, but don't know where to start.

If your head says that you want a white one Jemima, then thats what you should go for. The colour is irrelevant to the function.

The deal that Chrissie pointed out from Liberty Flights looks ideal.

Just with it being a present and £100 not over the top i thought you may as well go Rolls Royce as against ford Mondeo because you are sure to want to upgrade in no time at all .

lol this is very true I prob am going to want to upgrade and get the best that I can.

For me, in my head (never a good place lol) I'm thinking because I don't actually want to give up smoking, I want to make this as easy as possible to adapt to. To try and keep a similar experiance like I'm already used to, to get over that initial OMG!!!! feeling. I think if i wanted to give up smoking then any other colour would be the way to go, to break the cycle of habit. But first I have to adapt to the new way of smoking and maybe for me a white riva 510 is the way to go.

Atm, I'm telling myself that being a bit of a computer geek already, this is the way to go, who wants analogue when they can have digital

I want this to work, and I'm a little scared that it won't, I know I havent got the willpower to go to gum/patches or anythign like that and this is going to have to be my chance to finally give them up. Hence all the questions, I want to make sure I give this the best chance I possibly can. And that's why I appreciate so much everyone's fantastic help in this thread.

Once I get the hang of it, and accept that this is the way to go, I think that will be the time for experimentation. And to be honest .... can a girl every have to many choices or colours in her wardrobe lol. When this work's I'm prob gonan feel a bit like Barbie, an E-cig for every occasion and outfit lol

[collie2011]

I totally understand where you are coming from. I was determined to have a cig look a like and even after the advice off here I got one. I upgraded shortly after and then won a new one in a competition on here but I knew for me it had to feel like a cig at least for the first jump into e-cigs.

[Jemima]

Yes Collie, that's exactly how I feel. I know from my research and the wonderful help and advice I've recieved in this thread, that the Riva is prob the best for me to start out with to make the adjustment, specially as the smaller "lookalikes" prob couldnt handle my demands. I'd prob just get anoyed and give up and go back to analogue ciggys.

I've smoked small ciggys, long ciggys, fat ciggys. so size isnt the factor. I've never smoked a black ciggy, a gold ciggy, a titanium coloured ciggy lol I think with all the adjustments to take in, the white will take the edge of it just a little.

sounds good Jemima - let us know when it arrives and how your getting on

[Chrissie]

Jemima, go with your head & your heart hun I completely understand where Birdy is coming from but from everything you have said, a Screwdriver isn't what you are looking for at the moment

I know everyone is trying to be helpful, but could I ask you all to listen to what Jemima is looking for & at least make a compromise. Try to look back as Collie has done & remember that most of you also wanted something to replace your cigarettes in looks as well as performance. OK, we all now know that can't happen looks wise, so lets suggest a compromise eh?

Three years ago, I had very little choice when I was choosing my first e-cig, but guess what I went for - a super mini that looked like a real cig. Did I waste my money? Did I heck! It started me on a path that has saved me thousands of pounds. Would I ever buy the same e-cig again - a big NO

[Jemima]

Here I was thinking I had this nailed, now I have another problem lol.

I'm in the middle of prepareing my list of links and discount codes for hubby to head to to get my goodies, and I get to the fluid. And now I'm confused again lol

I want to order the LnB juice, from the site that Blakey suggested, but it asks me what options I want ? If I'm going from 25-30 Regal Analogues, I'm guessing I want 50/50. 20ml. extra high (30-36mg) is that gonna do the job ?

20mls of a 50/50 mix will be perfect.

I would go for something a little lower for strength though - something around 18-24mg. 36mg is usually just for the heaviest smokers.

[bel]

I agree with Dell, 18mg/24mg should be enough

[Jemima]

High is 20/26mg, I'll pop that one on my shopping list Thanks

[Jemima]

[birdy]

seems like you are considering riva with onlt 7500mah batteries when the last 3 kits i bought from Freedom Vape had 1100mah batteries ,Not sure if the difference is noticeable but mah keeps on rising with new models so i must assume higher power is better.

[Dell]

Blimey - seems like ur totally sorted

I've checked all your links out and they all look perfect to me.

I have one of those cases myself and they are great - perfect size to fit all you bits and bobs in.

The ego pass though is also great - u can use it whilst at ur computer and take it out with you should you need to.

I'm not sure that u'll need the syringe to fill your carts but it's a usefull bit of kit to have should you move on to other things like clearos or cartos ( u can find out about them later )

You're officially good to go - congrats and good luck - be sure to keep us updated.

[Jemima]

Yes those just seem to be the standard size that come's with the lite kit. There is a 1100mah available to buy seperately. It's the only place I found with the white style.
