Introduction

Shopping and buying an electronic cigarette can be confusing. With so many brands and starter kits, the choices are endless. Almost every brand claims theirs is the best, so who can you trust?

We have created this 2014 E-Cigarette Buying Guide to help you make the right buying decision.

There are lots of options right now in stores and on the internet, so there’s really no reason you should end up with an e-cigarette that doesn’t fit your needs perfectly. The industry is innovating, designing, and manufacturing the best products of all time right now.

Alongside this popularity boom, the competition between brands has never been tougher leading to reduced prices and better discounts, sales, and coupons.

So what does this mean for you?

There’s been a better time to try a new e-cigarette.

Whether you’re just learning about e cigarettes for the first time, or if you have been vaping for years and just need a quick refresher, the more informed you are about your options, the better your chances of buying an e-cig that you will love.



What are E Cigarettes?

Let’s start with the basics. Electronic cigarettes, commonly called vapor cigarettes or smokeless cigarettes are the latest and greatest alternative to smoking.

Their popularity is booming right now as more people are hearing about the benefits of switching to e-cigs and trying one for the first time.

To put it simply, an e-cigarette is powered by a battery, which vaporizes an e-liquid contained in a cartridge. The liquid contains just a few ingredients including water, nicotine, flavoring, propylene glycol, and/or vegetable glycerin.

Propylene glycol (PG) is what makes vaping e-cigarettes feel like you’re actually smoking. It gives you what’s called throat hit, which is a sensation experienced vapors have come to love.

PG is found in the vapor from smoke machines, asthma inhalers, and a flavor carrier in foods and beverages.

Vegetable Glycerin (VG) is what gives vapor its richness and thickness. VG is plant based, and is also found in a wide range of foods and medications. This is what helps food retain their water and moisture.



What are the Benefits of E Cigarettes?

There are countless benefits of e cigarettes compared to smoking traditional cigarettes. Here’s a list of the reasons millions of people have happily made the switch to vapor cigarettes.

1. No offensive smell and odor stains

2. No bad breath or yellow teeth

3. No smoke or tar

4. No ash or leftover cigarette butts

5. No risk of fire or burns

6. No lighter needed

7. No social stigmas

8. Cheaper than traditional cigarette smoking

9. Richer, smoother taste

10. More flavor options

11. More nicotine options

12. Free from most smoking bans

13. Easier to use

14. More convenient

15. Smoke almost anywhere



The Components of an E Cigarette

There are two main components of e cigarettes. It’s really not that complicated. The first component is the battery and the second is the cartridge (sometimes called a cartomizer). Screw these two parts together and voila! You have an electronic cigarette!

The Battery The battery is what powers the electronic cigarette. Starter kits come with rechargeable batteries that have an LED tip which lights up when you inhale and blinks when you need to plug it in the charger.

Batteries come in multiple lengths and often, longer batteries hold more charge and last longer. The longest and highest quality batteries last up to 600+ puffs, of about 3 packs of cigarettes.

Some brands offer automatic or manual batteries. Manual batteries have a button that activates the vapor production, while automatic batteries wait for you to inhale. We recommend automatic for beginners since they are easier to use and mimic traditional smoking.

You can also choose from various colors and designs. Choices include white with orange or red tip all the way to patterns with blue, green, or white LED’s.



The Cartridge The cartridge includes the flavor, liquid smoke juice, atomizer, and mouth piece. The atomizer is what heats up the liquid to produce the vapor. The newer models of e-cigs all include the atomizer in the cartridge, so you don’t have to worry about replacing or cleaning. Every cartridge has a fresh atomizer for fresh, smooth, thick vapor.

Cartridges come in many flavors and nicotine strengths. Most brands offer a few tobacco flavors to match the taste of Marlboro, Camel, or Winston and a few menthol flavors for Newport smokers. It gets fun when you get into the desert, fruit, or other exotic flavors. Some brands even offer custom flavors where you can create your own blend with two or more flavors.

Different nicotine strengths also come in handy when you want to match your tobacco strength. Choose 1.8% (18mg) for a full flavor, more for bold, strong, or extra and less for light or ultra-light. Almost every brand offers a zero nicotine option too. We have heard of smokers who have switched to e-cigs and slowly stepped down their nicotine strength over time.



Buying Your First E Cigarette

Now that we have covered the basics, let’s get into the details of what you want to look for when shopping for your e cigarette.

If you’re looking to save money with e cigarettes, the best way is to invest in a starter kit. You may be tempted by the low cost of disposables, but the cost savings really comes in when you can recharge your batteries and re-use your kit.

Starter kits come with everything you need to get started with e cigarettes.

You will get batteries, cartridges, and chargers. More expensive kits come with more of these items plus accessories like carrying or charging cases.

As we get into the options, it’s important to think about which kit will work best for you. Not everyone is the same, so use this guide to match your needs and make an informed buying decision.



Types of E Cig Starter Kits

Mini Kits These are the cheapest kits for each brand. They typically include only the vary basics with only 1 battery, a 1-2 cartridges, and 1 charger.

• First timers not fully committed to e cigarettes • Occasional or social smokers • New brand samplers

If you choose a mini kit and decide to join the millions of smokers who have switched to e-cigs, you can also add on with more components or buy another kit with more components.

These will still save you money compared to traditional cigarettes, but more expensive kits are a better value in the long run.

Basic Kits This is the next step up from the mini kits. These kits will include 2 batteries, which is highly recommended so you can always have a fully charged battery ready to go. They will also include 5-10 cartridges and more than one charger.

• Lighter smokers • Budget starter kit shoppers • At home only smokers

These kits will get you set up nicely, but you will still be restricted by your options for charging and you won’t get any of the accessories that make the e-cig experience a little more enjoyable.



Full Size Kits Full size kits are the most popular selling kits for most brands. You will get 2 batteries, at least 10 cartridges, car, wall, and USB chargers and a few accessories, like a USB (non-battery) e-cig or a carrying case that charges your batteries on the go.

• Smokers ready to fully switch to e-cigs • Moderate smokers • Smokes outside of the house

These are our recommended kits, unless your budget allows for something more extravagant. At this level, your starter kit that will give you a nice variety of cartridges to sample and keep you satisfied for a while without any additional purchases.

Top of the Line Kits If you want nothing but the best, most brands will have a kit that comes with just about everything in their store. These kits are the best deal when you consider how much value you’re getting with the package. Usually you get several hundreds of dollars of components including the best of everything in the store and lots of cartridges to last you a while.

• Moderate-Heavy smokers • Car smokers • Frequent Travelers • Value maximizers

These kits are a great option if you think you’re going to eventually want most of the accessories. The most complete starter kit packages are a great value for those that are ready to dive in the world of e-cigarettes without looking back.

Couples Kits Our top ranked brands also offer a unique kit that includes everything you need to get 2 people set up with e-cigarettes. A lot of smokers have a close family



member or friend who shares their same habit. If you can find someone who is ready to join you switching to e-cigarettes it can be a great way to stick to it and strengthen a relationship.

• Couples making the switch • Friends looking to save money • Stocking up on supplies for later • Always losing or misplacing your things

Even if you don’t have someone to share with, these kits are usually the best value and can be a great way to stock up and have lots of cartridges to try and backup batteries when needed.



Customizing Your Starter Kit

When you find the right level kit for you, the next step is to customize and select your battery and cartridge options.

Cartridge Options Your first step is to choose your cartridges. We recommend choosing a vapor flavor that matches your traditional e cigarette flavor. If you’re buying a kit with more than one pack of cartridges, it’s always a good idea to try something else. A lot of converted e-cig vapers now like flavors that aren’t even close to their old flavor. You may be feeling adventurous with something sweet like a vanilla or maybe just wanting to try another unique tobacco or menthol flavor.

Choose your nicotine strength carefully. Heavier smokers should go with 1.8% or higher while lighter smokers who usually smoke lights or ultra-lights should choose 0.6-1.2%. We recommend not going to high on your nicotine strength at first to give yourself time to adjust.

Battery Options Some brands have more options than others with batteries, but you can usually choose form at least two lengths, a few colors, and automatic or manual.

If you’re a heavier smoker, you should lean toward getting a longer battery. Shorter battery are nice since they fit in your pocket and can make it easier to sneak a puff without being seen. If you’re an average smoker, we like the idea of getting one of each so you have more flexibility depending on where you are and what you’re doing that day.

Color is all about your style and preference. Plain, white batteries with red or orange LED’s can be helpful if you’re trying to mimic a traditional cigarette. On the other hand, if you want something that won’t get mixed up and confused with regular smokers, get something like sleek black or a stylish pattern.



Top 5 Ranked E Cig Starter Kits

Now you’re ready to choose a brand and your new starter kit. At this point in the buying guide you should have a good idea of what you’re looking for, so it should be smooth sailing from here.

One thing to keep in mind is lower prices often mean a lower quality product. We hate to see someone try a cheap disposable from their local gas station and get frustrated with gross flavors and batteries that don’t last. The worst thing you can do is make a decision about e-cigs based on your experience with a junk brand.

By trying one of our top 5 ranked e-cigarette starter kits, you can be sure you’re getting the best e-cig experience possible.

How To Use Your New E Cigarette

Once you have your new e-cigarette, there’s a few things you need to know to get started.

Step 1 – First, things first. Open and unpack all the contents in the box. If you’re interested, you can read the user’s manual that’s included with your starter kit.

Step 2 – Your battery probably has a partial charge right out of the box, but it’s best to fully charge your new batteries before using. Just screw the battery in to the charger and plug it into your computer USB or wall outlet. As soon as you see the LED start blinking, unscrew from the charger. Your battery is now fully charged.

Step 3 – Unwrap the freshness seal on a flavor cartridge and screw one into your new battery. You’re now ready to take a puff. You may want to start charging your next battery at this time to make sure you’re always ready to go with a fresh battery.

Step 4 – Start off by taking a few quick, short puffs followed by a longer, slow puff. This will warm up the heating element to produce thick, consistent vapor for your next puffs. You will see the LED light up when you inhale. Sit back and enjoy your new vapor, smokeless cigarette!

Step 5 – When your cartridge starts running out of flavored vapor, it’s time to switch out. You should expect to get the equivalent of about 1.5 packs of traditional cigarettes from every flavor cartridge.

Step 6 – When the LED starts flashing on your battery, you know it’s time for a recharge. Just unscrew from your flavor cartridge and replace with your fully charged battery.
