Newbie about to take first steps ..

Spinner is a no, normal e-gig battery charger for the spinner

[dhansak]

Think I am just going to order one battery for now - taking too much time to sort out my backup! Given that initially I will be smoking rolys and vaping, the lack of a backup shouldn't be critical in the first week or so.... When I find a juice I really like, will try going vaping only and kick those rolys! Will get my backup then.

Will be going for:
mvp2 (comes with iclear30 & USB cable) - £35.99 from myepack
mini protank 2 (not the kit) - £9.99 from myepack
random tobacco flavour 10ml - £2.49 from myepack

Will carry on checking the web for deal comparison prices etc then order end of day today! As always - all info/comments welcomed! Thanks

When it arrives and I've got it up and running, will hit Smoke Rainbow and their T-Juice samples!

Sounds like a plan to me lol. I use the itaste vv/vw and a mini protank 2. I love the shape of the itaste in my hand and charge it with my kindle lead any micro lead will fit best to charge via a wall plug USB though as it takes a long time from the computer

[dhansak]

Hey folks - just saw your replies re charging and the spinner etc. That would make my backup the vv3 then! Phew - got through the "what do I actually buy" phase! Thank you, thank you, thank you

Will hunt round for the "where-to-buy" just in case I'm missing deals etc. Really looking forward to the "have-a-lie-down" phase

the iTast is a fab price from here at the moment dhansak

That's a great price because you get the 5 clearos as well.  The only thing I would say is if you're going for that too, myepack are doing the same kit for the same price so if you add it to your MVP order, you'll get the lot shipped for free.

[dhansak]

Thanks Karma and newdawn - looks like myepack is the front runner at the mo!

Hello & welcome dhansak

The only thing I'm going to add is that you will need more than one 10ml bottle of e-liquid.

[xs2man]

Got to agree with Chrissie there. Like I said, I'll send you a couple random flavours, but you should probably get a few extra yourself. I was addicted to Blueberry with a hint of mint when I first started (so I'll send you some of that, as I have some spare), so maybe try something other than a tobacco flavour.

[dhansak]

Hi Chrissie & xs2man

Absolutely will order more juice! Was thinking of the 10ml bottle from myepack as a test of the kit plus a tiny intro to vaping. Do you think I need more in that context?
Will order several samples of t-juice from Smoke Rainbow this week (I gather it's about a week to get here?) then order larger quantities later based on how that goes. Will also try JooseJuice - are they on par with T-Juice?

Lol - promised myself I wasn't going to bombard you with juice questions till I'd ordered the hardware!

meanwhile .... have put the mvp2, protank2 mini and ejuice in the basket at myepack! Will hold off the vv3 as it puts the total over £50 - which takes it beyond insurance offered by free postage for orders over £40 (have to pay £6.95 for insurance above £50 order value - or risk it!). In any case - as xs2man pointed out earlier - not sure if its best to get the vv3 kit with extra tanks yet - maybe just the battery on its own later.

If i like the cooler vape will get more of the protanks. If I like the warmer iclear 30 (that comes with the mvp) will get the vv3 pack with those 5 iclear16s. That's the plan anyway - sounds logical - hope it makes sense in the real world...

Just thought - are some juices better warm and others better cool? Or do experienced vapers tend to settle in the warm or cool camps generally for most juices. Aargh - so many questions

Thanks again for your generous offer xs2man - I'm not very forum literate - I think I successfully PM'd you earlier but I can't see any trace of it now (aka prob not looking in the right place!)

[xs2man]

Yeah, got your PM. Will look out some liquids tonight and send them off tomorrow. Well that's the plan anyway, lol.

T-Juice and joose Juice aren't on a par with each other. I'm not saying that JJ is bad, but T-Juice is exceptional, lol. But they will both be good places to start. Wish I had found T-Juice earlier if I'm honest.

Sounds like a good plan with the hardware, getting one of each with the initial purchase, and see what you like before ordering your back-up. Nice thinking. Remember, you can order you back-up device from China (Fasttech for example), if you can wait, and that'll save some pounds. I generally order my clearos and heads from UK though, to make sure they are genuine.

[dhansak]

Thanks xs2man - whenever you find the time will be great - much appreciated Will focus on T-Juice - thanks for taking me to a good place without me having to walk round the houses like you have had to! I know juice is subjective - but from all that's been said, this really puts the odds heavily in favour of a Happy Days result!

[babs]

www.fasttech.com/products/0/10004594/1363600-authentic-innokin-itaste-vv-v3-0-variable-voltage itaste vv/vw about £16.50 from fasttech including postage and insurance. I bought one of about 3 months ago and it's genuine but takes about a month to get here and China is coming up for a weeks break (end of month) so if you go this route will need to be ordered soon

[newdawn]

The protanks are glass tanks and you'll need those for tank cracking juices anyway, regardless of the warm vs. cool preference. Iclear 16's are easier to fill when you're out and about. You won't go wrong with your plans posted above so go for it.

[dhansak]

Order made at last (with internet problems spicing up the payment process lol)

One mvp2, protank2 mini + juice inbound courtesy of myepack. Also ordered 10 t-juice samples from smoke rainbow.

I can't thank you all enough for your help - really amazing folks
