Have you ever thought....
  • I want an E-Cig but don’t know which one is right for me
  • Should I use a clearomizer or cartomizer?
  • What is a clearomizer or cartomizer?
  • What is a 510 battery and how is it different than an eGo style battery?
  • What's the difference in prefilled cartridges/filters and buying bottles of e-liquid?
  • Is it easier to just keep smoking?
  • Does this sound like you?
  • Are all of the choices and options making things difficult for you to just pick up a pen/cig and vape?
I am willing to bet you have had some, or all of those thoughts run through your mind, I know I did. Don’t worry though, you’re in the right place for some help making an easy decision to better your life.

In addition to offering affordable electronic cigarettes and accessories,  I am also here to guide you through the confusing and somewhat overwhelming world of options and choices available.

Maybe you’re a  Marlboro Man or a Virginia Slim kinda girl. You might want a "mod triple z type x" or perhaps just a good replacement for that finger ornament, also known as a cigarette.

It is important realize there are different types of smokers and vapors and understand their needs as an individual. It’s easy to get overwhelmed with so many different choices and types of E-Cigs on the market.  
The same is true with traditional cigarettes. The same key features (Battery/Atomizer/Filter) and components (tobacco/liquid) are available in every imaginable type of combination.

We have done all the testing for you and are here to help match you up with the perfect E-Cig combination. 

So lets start at the beginning. Which Electronic Cigarrette should I buy? 
There are countless options available for purchase, and quite honestly most of them are more similar than they are different. 

When selecting your first e-cig the main thing to consider is how long you would like to be able to use it for without having to charge it. 

Your smaller(510 sized batteries) that use pre filled cartridges/filters are going to be cheaper, up front. Blu is one example of this type of kit. They are inexpensive in the beginning but turn out to be a headache, from my own experience. 
I actually ended up purchasing 2 complete Blu Kits before I just went back to smoking all together. I was tired of the frustration from having to charge the batteries constantly and the price of the cartridges/refills was just as expensive as cigarettes. 

This trial and error process led me to option number two, the second type I tried, which i believe is the best option available. 

A standard eGo style battery and a CE4 Clearoimier.


The eGo style batteries are available in various sizes ranging from: 4500mAh, 6500mAh, 8000mAh, 9500mAh, 1000mAh, 1100mAh, 1300mAh. What is mAh? mAh is a measure that represents milliampere-hour(mA-h or mAh) that essentially represents how powerful a battery is. 
I tend to say that a 4500mAh battery will last 4.5 hours, a 9500mAh will last 9.5 hours, etc. 

The eGo style batteries on the market are really all great choices. 


The other difference between their average charged life span is the type of tank that will work with them. You will see that 510 style tanks have what looks like a nipple(male end) that goes into the female end of the battery. An eGo battery actually has a female connector that screws into a male connection on the tank. Many, or most eGo threaded batteries can also power 510 tanks/cartomizers. 


The overall best buy for a beginner when it comes to a tank is either a CE4, CE5, or CE6. All are eGo compatible, inexpensive, and easy to use. Simply fill with fluid, vape, clean periodically and throw away when taste and perfomrance diminish. A CE6 cleaomizer offers the ability to be rebuilt. 
The atomizer, the heating element in the tank that vaporizes the fluid, will wear out over time and become clogged with fluid. You can purchase replacemetns and just change out this piece which costs approximately 25% of the cost of a whole tank. 

I started with an eGo style battery and CE4 and fell in love. The ability to go for a whole day or two without charging and just adding more liquid to the tank was great. Even after trying countless other models my father and I agree that you cannot beat the overall performance and dependability of the CE4.
