Ok her it is so far 4 weeks and not a cig to my lips but my pocket book is taking a big punch

I stop by a store that sell only e-cig and juice and i tried it and i love it.
i know being a retail store they have to make there money working in retail business my self i know how hard it is to not loss all your sales to online.
but as its going right now i think smoking real cig is cheaper.

So i bought a ego-t type B from him and juice ( $1 a ml but i get to sample them before i buy ).. not a bad price about 20% over most online retail but to me customer service was worth it. The only problem is i am burning throw atomizers like crazy.. one ever 3 days and at $15 a pop you could see my problem.

I burn about 2-3 ml a day and need to find a way to keep them working
longer or a system with cheep atomizers i can toss and not cry over the price
edit.. ps looking for as strong or stronger then the ego-t as far as smoke produced

Narcosis, welcome to the forum.
Bummer, on the t-atomisers. Don't know where you're at but e-cig-city.com has a store in Laguna Beach.
Hit liquid.com gets $6 for the eGo T atties(atomisers)reasonable shpg. They are in Fountain Valley,CA. Kristin has some killer juice for $6 for 18ml. Recommend Dreams and RY4 juice.
LeCig.com and Electosmoke.com are having great sales right now and they have everything you need.
Any 510 type cartomiser(carto) will screw right on to your eGo. Cartos go for <$15 for a 5pk. and both stores should stock them,your local store should have told you about that.
Good luck,again welcome and any help you need let us know

I had about the same issue on Tank attys...not a fan for sure
cartos are much better IMO for longevity and less hassle vaping

Hi narcosis, welcome!
I agree with berger and bikes, cartomizers really are the way to go, IMHO.

When I first started, instead of buying 5 packs of all the different kinds of cartomizers that are out there, I found that madvapes.com and avidvaper.com both offer the option to purchase single cartomizers. I bought one of everything that looked like it might work for me, and then tried them out until I found what I enjoyed most, then started buying 5 packs. (I would suggest avoiding the G4 cartomizers though.... ) After you find what you like, there are always suppliers offering great sales and coupon codes here under "Supplier Hype!" A bunch have already started Black Friday sales, and you can find some really great deals.

Good luck! And if you have any questions..... Ask!

Kali

Welcome to the forum narcosis. That stuff can add up fast if your not careful. Ditto with both bikes and berger. I love hitliquids RY4 & Dreams and is at a great price. Hard to beat good juice like that at 6 bucks for 18ml. Lecig and Electosmoke both have great deal going on now also. I prefer cartos to attys. Much less hassle to me and last longer. If your really desperate to save money, you can clean out the cartos and reuse them but they are not as good as a new fresh one but cheap enough for you to just toss after a few weeks and still save a lot of money.

haha so when people were talking cartos and atomizers were the same thing.
so looks like i got 3 650mA battery don't ask why i got 3.

i see thing that some cartos say they produce 1.6 ohmz to 2.5 ohmz what rang would work best with the batteries i own.

2nd question right now i have my battery.. that goes to my atty then to my tank.
if i get the cartos will they screw into the battery (making sure i get the right size) do most need tanks or drips or all depends what i buy?

The carto is a heating element with filler material around it, while a atty is just a heating element, the main difference is how much one holds vr the other and what setup you want. I love cartomisers there a god send for me, but like i said not for every one..

The batts you own should have about a 2 ohm carto on them 510 threading for the egot kit, and you should love that lr vape..

You are correct on the components, battery atty tank, the cartos will screw where the atty would be and i would reccomend for any atty or carto a drip tip, for you.. But yes all depends on what is bought..

I think somebody should show narc some pictures to make sure there's no confusion.

I'd do it, but I'm just too lazy...y'all know that.

BTW, welcome to the asylum, Narcosis!

well if your using an ego T a 510 carto should screw right on to your battery
as far as ohms Id start at 2.0 ohms and try that as a middle ground...if too hot can step up to 2.5 or if too cool can step down to 1.8 or 1.6 depending
bear in mind lower resistance makes more heat by using more battery so the vaping times will drop off too the lower you go..
whos brand juice and flavors are you using now?

right now using rawr vapor

Going to take kali advise and buy 4 models for the 510 in 1.7-2.2 that i can find. still cheap then one atty that i keep buying.

Only problem is the boy side of my keep taking me to the mod's forms lol dam toys but fear i will be to over my head with those. some thing just says buy 1 mod that can run a full range of ohms and switch cartos till i find the right one i like. then be limited to options that fit the 510 in my right ohms...

Yep, after getting one, a reg battery like the egos would not get me through the day very well. My cig cravings I fought for so long drastically dropped after getting one.

There is nothing wrong with having spares. Because vaping supplies aren't as readily available as cigarettes or other tobacco products, you will find that having back-ups for your back-up's back-up is always a good idea. I am sure that more than a few of us here have at least 3 to 4 personal vaporizors (PVs) if not more, in rotation at any given time. Whatever it takes to keep you from going back to smoking an icky ciggie!

As far as juice goes look here for some really good deals on juice.

How much is a Darwin these days....$250?

Can you change the battery (at home) if it dies?

Does the warranty cover parts, labor and freight?

If you drop it and something breaks, like the display, how much will a new display cost?

Last I read, Darwins aren't being made anymore cuz too much time is being spent on warranty repairs....is this true?

Get a Caroline Mod it HAS to be the best LOL !!

J/K , starting out use the simplest thing you can like Cartos that do not have to be filled every 5 hits , also as you get into this more VV ( variable voltage ) Is an option you may want to look into , it allows you to TUNE the hit and flavor.

The battery has a 1 year warranty!! Opening the device actually voids the warranty. Though you can still use it as a passthrough.

Never heard of someone breaking it after dropping it. It is aircraft anodized aluminum. It may dent the floor that you dropped it on but it isn't going to hurt the darwin.

The darwin is still being made and it is in stock currently. Evolv is an american company which continues to bring GREAT products to the table.

The price on nhaler is 245 with the 5% discount it comes up to 232.75. That includes a 1 year warranty on the battery also, so no need for you to ever open the body or structure of the darwin.

So what does the 2 year warranty cover if the battery, the most important part, is covered for 1 year?

Very true I have to buy the best!! I have limited funds to spend on my pv's and vaping supplies, therefore I buy the best!!

Darwin is like an automatic calculator and does all the work for you. No matter what carto or atomizer I therefore choose I can get the full function out of them. Can you say that about any other pv out there??

The answer is NOO!! Most wanabe darwins out there you have to actually buy new cartos to accomidate to them!! The darwin simply accomidates to what you already have. When you can say there is another device out there that does that, let me know!!!

The entire device not including the battery is covered for 2 years. The battery has a 1 year warranty on it. After that 1 year warranty you can purchase another battery (or set of batteries) for $25.00 and get another 1 year warranty.

Thank you Hagstrom for my Infinity IPro and not making me have to second mortgage my home to get one. It has been a life saver for me. My cravings for cigs are nearly gone and when they do hit, within a few minutes of using the IPro, they are gone. This is the best hundred bucks I ever spent. Also just found out that the level I'm vaping at to keep those cravings gone exceeds what the provari or darwin can handle. It was very much worth the wait and I will be coming back for another one very soon.

The 2 years....is that manufacturing defects or does that also cover user "error"?

Does that $25 include installation?

Do you have to buy another 1 year warranty for the battery or does the $25 cover it?

And why would you want to purchase a set of batteries if you can't replace them yourself without voiding your warrant(ies)? That doesn't make sense to me...

Sounds kind of expensive in the long run.....hmm?
