Newbie needs Advice

[X&Y]

Hi

Been lurking around this forum for a couple of days now and finally took the plunge.

Straight in with questions i'm afraid.

Been reading posts on here and MSE and need some advice on what products to purchase.

I'm currently smoking 20 Stirling Red King Size a day but really want to give up.

I'm looking for two models really one small ciggie lookalike for nights out etc and one of the bigger units for at home and so forth.

I'm looking for something that gives good draw and probably in the bigger one to be able to try different juices (be nice in the smaller one but happy with tobacco flavour if need be)

I'm desk based at work so have access to mains and USB and obviously have the same at home

Some models i have come accross are

Smaller - SD Keyring or Intro Vapour Pro

Larger - Titan or Riva

Can anyone advise on what would be suitable for good draw and good vaping

Thanks

Richard

SD Keyring and Riva would be a good combo.
The keyring comes with prefilled cartos, but they won't
contact properly on a Riva battery.
So grab yourself a box of standard resistance Kanger
or Boge cartos and a couple of 510 drip tips too, and you
should be good to go.

Oh, and some juice...

Hello & welcome Richard

For the smaller choice the SD key ring has good review, though not tried it myself.

Off to find some links for you In the meantime, I'm sure others will also come & help

Welcome to the forum Richard

The SD keyring is a cracking little device. It packs quite a punch considering it's small size. It also has a standard 510 screw thread, so you can use quite a few accessories with it. I got my one here:- www.vapeescape.co.uk/the-sd-keyring-ecig~266.

Thanks for the prompt replies

I'm used to being ignored on most other forums

Two questions

What do drip tips do?

If on a normal cigarette you take say 15 draws do you do the same on an ecig?

Thanks

SD key ring from Vape escape - use discount code allabout for 10% off anything from them-

If you go for the Riva from Vape escape, ask Jason to replace the atomisers/cartridges with caromisers - either the Boge or Kanger LR's for a good draw & lots of vapour -

As you are desk bound, I would (if funds available) also go for an e-cig city passthru -
www.liberty-flights.co.uk/product.asp?id=58
But don't plug it into your PC, use it with a hub like this - (& only with SR cartomisers/atties).

Whatever you go for, you are going to also need some e-liquid, but that is so hard to recommend as it's down to taste.

Hi Richard and

You've done your homework!

SD Keyring and Riva with some Kanger cartomisers is a GREAT combination for your requirements.

Get a couple of bottles of e-liquid as well to try, if you don't like em you could sell or swap them on here later. About 18mg or medium strength would be a good place to start, though you may find initially that 24mg is better to stop the cravings.

One last IMPORTANT thing is to use the discout code ALLABOUT to get 10% off of your order.

Oh and it's mandatory to keep us updated with how you're doing

[Chrissie]

Lol Richard, you wont be ignored here - in fact you'll most likely get lots of crossed posts like my last one I'm so slow at typing

Thanks Chrissie

It's a minefield out there of choice and actually understanding what's what

I've not got a sweet tooth so i think it's going to be the tobacco flavours for me not the caramel etc.

Are the refills better than the prefilled?

Hello and welcome Richard

Sounds like an excellent combo, i have the keyring and its got a good throat hit for such a tiny little thing, and the riva is very good with a battery life to last you the day.

I found it so strange when i started vaping as it doesn't finish like a real ciggie does, i was puffing away on it for about an hour before i put it down

1. you'll NEVER be ignored here.
2. Drip tips just go on the end of the cartomiser they can be plastic or metal and just feel better in the mouth that the blunt end of a cartomiser.
3. You'll find you use a e-cig differently to a nasty. You can pick it up and just take a puff or 2 if you feel like it, or just sit there vaping away until you're ready to stop. They are more flexible that way than nasties.

I hope this answers your questions, keep em coming.




PS. WHUFC, never mind


COYS!

Yes done a bit of homework

Mainly thanks to you guys here and on MSE but boy i'm still a little confused with it all

Hopefully with some of the recomendations here i can build myself a good little starter kit.

I will update. that frustrates me with other forums people don't come back and update so no one knows if the info or tip worked or was any good.. It's all about helping others i believe.
