Both of those look good to me You're almost there!

The only thing I'd add would be some cartomisers as well: www.vapeescape.co.uk/boge-510-standard-resistance-%285%29~145

There's a video on that page showing you an easy way to fill them. Cartomisers are a lot easier to use than the atomisers that will come with the riva but it wont hurt at all to have the atomisers as a backup. The cartomisers simply screw ontop of the riva batteries.

It is difficult starting up with ecigs but you're almost there. It took me a long time to come to decision when I got my first one as well but I was glad I looked into it first

Oh you'll need some juice with them as well, it doesn't look like they come with that kit. The cheapest juice has to be here: vapourworld.co.uk/shop/category_8/Fuel-%28eLiquid%2C-SmokeJuice%29.html?shop_param=cid%3D%26

I just got some of their Ry4 today. It's not godly but for the price I really can't complain

You wont go far wrong withe the www.ecigsforyou.co.uk/ego-650-starter-kit but ask steve Site owner for advise on the relevant cartomizer (i used the bud st from him - easier to fill) but likewise most people here I'm sure can offer the best cartomizer for this unit. Steve at ecigs also does a rather nice decadent RY4 flavour kind of caramel/tobacco easy on the throat but still a hit with my wifee you will need e-juice with either of these and you-tube have many videos on topping up the cartomizers. I thought i would never like menthol but its a lovely refreshing change and freshens up the tatse buds too

[Perpetua]

It's an either or from me as well Daisy, as they're both great starter kits . . . I'd also add a pack of cartomisers and some ejuice to your order.

Both Supplier's have discount codes to use on checkout, I'll have a quick look for them >>>>>>>

Ecigsforyou . . . use allabout

Albavapours . . . use aaecuk

Hi Dasiy and welcome to the confusion that is vapeing lol

Some great advice above, I just wanted to add 2 things. Firstly, the Riva (the one I started off with as well ) is a good way to start, and I took the advice given to me on the forum of starting with the riva first. I wasn't sure if e-cigs were gonna work for me and wanted to make the transition as smooth as possible for my poor smoke ridden brain too lol. So I decided on the riva, but I went with a white one. Figured it would look more ciggy like out of the corner of my eye, than a black or pink one.

Secondly, the riva is pritty much the same as the tornado and ego batterys, so if you are lookign at any of those makes then your looking at the right ones. Same as with most things, it's just diffferent names for different companys.

Whichever way you choose to go, there is a wealth of information and experiance available to you on this forum, and I'm sure all the members would happily answer as many questions as you need to ask to get yourself comfortable with the choice you make. They had the patience of a saint for me lol

thanks so much ....im going to ring ecigs in the morning to help me in placing my order for everything i might need

im not going to look at anything else from now on - cos im vaping my brain cells with it all...... lol

I started vaping (this time around) with a smaller 510 because money was an issue. It was fine, I was happy with it and I had no problems at all, I guess I was lucky. I'm not a heavy vaper though. I have to agree with the others that the Riva is a good starter e cig, but it's down to personal choice at the end of the day, like everything else in life.

[Perpetua]

Great stuff Daisy, do report back won't you.

You're wise not to look any further, it just gets more confusing . . . taking the plunge is the next step now.

Hi daisydoo and welcome from me too. Some good suggestions already - I'll just add one more. If it is small and simple you want a good and very cheap option that has just come onto the market is this:

www.vapeescape.co.uk/the-sd-keyring-ecig~266

This is a standard 510 fitting, automatic (you just puff it), 300 mAh, so will last a few hours between charges and comes with a couple of pre-filled cartomisers that you just screw on. This would get you going while you think about all the other possible options and would always be a useful backup/ out and about option in the future.

Welcome from me too, there has been a wealth of advice from previous posters. I am a new ecig user and in the newbie section, if you look for my posts "threads started by my user name" you will see my journey in a matter of 2 weeks lol What I would say is go with what makes you feel comfortable for you, when most of us begin we are looking for that visual comparison but just as we are getting into it we realise that the battery life is not living up to expectations and start the upgrading process.

Everyone on here has been so friendly and a wealth of advice along my personal journey. Having said that. if I had listened way back in my first post, I would have saved some money, but to be honest the journey was worth it!

I say go for what these guys advice, the Riva, when you get your kit, come back and ask again, these guys and gals are wonderful at helping beginners.

[Chrissie]

Mrsmac, I'm just so pleased that your journey has been worth it
