    I haven't. I'm pretty new to this. I'm basically looking for the best of the best on everything. That's why I ordered the Provari. I don't want to have to upgrade my setup in any period of time.

    I'm open to suggestions, but it looks like I'll be ordering the Z-Atty, unless I can find something better by the end of the weekend.

    Hate to say it, but the Z-Atty is far from the best and has a VERY airy draw, same with a provari. The provari isnt terrible, its a good VV device. The problem you will run into is that genesis atomizers require LOW ohms for optimal performance generally 1 ohm or less. MUCH different than your typical carto or clearo. The Provari has an amp limit and as long as you stay above 1 ohm, it will work, but maybe not to ones satisfaction. If you reach the amp limit it will error out. Also, because of the nature of metal on metal (coil on stainless steel mesh) you will have LOTS of shorts and it will become frustrating due to the circuitry on the provari. Next thing to remember.....hybrids must be in the vertical position when not in use otherwise they will leak out completely. So no, you cant put it in your pocket safely moreso because the top cap will come off easily.

    If you want to get into hybrids. I wouldnt go all out unless you have money to blow. On the cheap end, get an AGA-T instead of the Z-atty, its like $25. For hybrids, I would go with a mechanical mod, this way you dont get frustrated and have stupid errors. Depending on your budget, You can get a Kamry K100 (I think they are around $100) but I would recommend the EA-Mod (About $200), Nemesis (About $175) or an iHybrid pure that is due to be released soon (18500 battery tube and genesis atomizer all in one) which hits like a freight train and is only $99

    Remember, none of this is "the best of the best". If you want to talk about $1500 ecigs....you just let me know lol. Its all about what works for YOU. If a carto does the trick, awesome....dont buy for the "cool factor" or how something looks...buy what works.

    Do yourself a favor and do some research....dont just buy shit cause other people have it lol.

    Been vaping since I quit smoking 1.28.13.

    I've been using the less expensive brands.

    I kicked it up today, Joyetech eVic.

    Huge difference in the quality, IMHO.

    Sweet man! What flavors did you get?

    I've tried fruit juice, caramel, and a random tobacco flavor to start. They were all terrible lol


    Went to the local vape shop, and found Mt. Dew flavor. It's my current favorite.

    So gave up on the SMOK cartomizer tank...to much leaking and flooding all the time. Me and the wife went to the ismoka BCC mega tanks.

    After getting my Provari:

    4 cigs the first day owning it

    3 cigs 3 days ago

    2 cigs 2 days ago

    1 cig yesterday, when first waking up is the hardest one to not smoke for me

    Haven't smoked a single cig today. This is from a guy who has smoked two packs a day for 18 years.


    THANKYOU! To the OP for making this thread, and everyone who has contributed. I never would have known about these things if not for this. E-cigs are not a popular thing here in Alabama.

    Got a few new juices in while I was away on vacation:
    [​IMG]

    Cinnamon Red Hot, Root Beer, Get Razzled, Sour Yum, Lemon Drop, Hot Chocolate and Hawk Sauce. Letting them all steep for a couple of weeks but so far couldn't resist trying the Root Beer. Tastes pretty good without steeping - Anise flavor with a light aftertaste. This should only get better with a little time. I'll report on the other ones as I try them.


    @Randy - I'll get those juices sent out today. They came all the way to Palm Springs and Las Vegas with me but I wasn't able to get to a post office :D


    Also took a few moments during my vacation to order an eVic, Trustfire charger, batteries and a couple of K9 Protanks which look like a Kanger Protank knock-off but only $7/each. All from FastTech. Hopefully those will arrive early next week.


    I am keeping my eyes open for the iTaste MVP V3. It's all I can do NOT to buy the V2 right now...


    I did notice that the Protank was leaking everywhere when there is pressure change, such as in an airplane or when going up and down mountain passes. Travelling with the ecig upside down usually helped with my specific setup. For the airplane, I separated the Protank from the battery and leave the atomizer slightly unscrewed to prevent any vacuum effect.


    Still no analogs since starting my e-cigarette revolution :p

    Agree 100%. Nice Anise flavor after 1 week of steeping, hint of Root Beer finish. Expect this to transition to Root Beer as the next few weeks go on. Ordered Root Beer based on your review :)

    Nice! That's the exact same setup I am using. I just ordered an eVic for home vaping so this setup will be used mostly at work or on the road in the future. Totally happy with this setup. Once it arrived I poured juice in and started vaping. As a newb, it seemed to put out more vapor than I could handle. The new setup I got just because I'm getting sucked into this world of vaping.

    As I mentioned before, the NW WA Meet thread and my Taco are getting a lot less attention since I dove into e-cigs. I'm even spending a ton of time on the e-cigarette forums learning stuff and hardly any time on TW. :anonymous:

    I'll bring my focus back to trucks and firearms soon but for now quitting smoking is sure a lot of fun.
