25. I've been vaping for 3 years without a relapse.

I recommend either the Zeus or Dial-a-Volt.

The reason being, they both have lots of power comparable to an Ego (which means a good hit and they last all day before needing a recharge), while at the same time being extremely simple and hassle-free to use. Note: they use different chargers, but can use the same cartomizers. Get at least two batteries so that one can be charging, while vaping the other. One neat thing about the Zeus is that it can also be used as a passthrough (plugged in to a USB port while using, so it continuously charges).

The Smilomizers (big, long-lasting cartomizers on the same site; cartos are the screw-on end sections which hold the liquid) are excellent with either one, but for regular size cartos I much prefer those by Bloog, which also has good smaller/cheaper batteries, for when those are wanted (situations in which a battery might be "at risk" of being lost or damaged etc.)

As for e-liquid, a beginner should buy it, but learn to DIY (do it yourself) asap because it's very easy to learn how, and can save a lot of money. Detailed instructions are at the ecig forum referred to at the top of the thread.

As far as flavors go, I'm not into the tobacco ones but lots of people who are seem to like RY4. I really like Chocolate far better than any other flavors and have stuck with that for two years now.

I'm glad you finally won the battle. blue neen Apr 2013 #19
Cold Turkey is the only way but you need moral back up not scorn olddots Apr 2013 #14
