Default Ok ready to buy help me please

Ok, I think I am ready to buy and I would like the following if you could lead me to a source and what to purchase I would be very grateful.

Throat hit is important to me, not harsh but I need to feel it.
I do not want menthol.
I would like something feminine if that is an option, but not neccessary.
I am a Marlboro mediums smoker now, so do not know what strength to use.
I would like the option of having buying some prefilled and some I can fill, so that if I cannot or do not like filling them myself it is still not a waste.

I would prefer VG if that is possible, or is there really a difference, PG is actually a laxative seems odd to me.

How often do I need to change the cart? Once a day once a week, every ?? what?

I am very serious about going to vapor instead of smoking I really want to quit or least VERY seriously CUT back on analogs.

Can anyone lead me into the right direction so once I do quit I wont be stuck with nothing, and go back to them.
Thank you in advance.

As a general rule of thumb the higher the nic level the better the throat hit.

Not sure what constitutes feminine, when it comes to these devices. This is something you will have to decide for yourself. Start out with the highest nic level, you can always cut it but you can't increase it.

I would like the option of having buying some prefilled and some I can fill, so that if I cannot or do not like filling them myself it is still not a waste.
Refilling is only a matter of adding some drops to the cart, heck I can refill a cart while I drive, not recommended though.

I would prefer VG if that is possible, or is there really a difference, PG is actually a laxative seems odd to me.

VG produces a thicker heavier longer lasting vapor than PG, but is generally too thick and requires thinning. I typically do a 60/40 or a 50/50 mix with PG and VG. PG is widely used as a preservative, it is used in gel tab pills, even in the sodas you drink.

PG and PEG are commonly used as a laxative, but in the way we use it, I have never found myself on the run, as a result of vaping.

Carts are reusable and can last for a very long time. The filler material will wear out which is nothing more than polyester fiber fill. A $3.00 bag of it is enough for thousands of cartridges. It depends on how much you use and the type of e-liquid. When the filler material starts looking dingy and no longer wants to accept liquid, take it out and wash it with water, ring it dry by rolling it on a paper towel and reinsert it into the cart with some tweezers, then refill with e-liquid.

One of the best and most popular e-cigs on the market is the Joye 510.
Check out the Ego, it is a Joye 510, only with much bigger batteries and is visually appealing. The e-go starter kit typically sells for around $70.00. A bit more than standard starter kits, but that is because of the bigger batteries.
Jason of Electronicstix is one of many who sells Genuine Joye products and the Ego, you can check them out by following the link on his forum here. If you decide to buy from Electronicstix, use promo code "ESF10" (without the quotes) to get a 10% discount.

Royal hit the Vape on the head written better than i would have wrote it. i'll add a few thing being both an ex vaper and Marlboro red smoker. the nic juice i liked the best was from avejuice . com the flavor was gamel which was supposed to be a camel knock off but to me it felt more like a red. you may enjoy there marly which is a bit milder but i like that one as well. str is really up to personal preferences but you can't go up like the man said.

The domestic VG liquid I didn't care for but a lot people like it.The kit should be awesome.I do like the liquids on this page and have tried most 18 MG Niquid you just have to try a variety of liquids until you find what you like ,sorry I can't be more help than that but everyones taste is different.I liked the frooty ones at first because the tobacco ones didn't taste like the ciggerettes they were supposed to taste like.Now I am liking the tobacco flavored ones for what they do taste like.

You sure. Those laxative suppositories are pure VG.

I believe you are correct BB.
It has been awhile since I looked in to this, but if memory serves,
VG and PEG (Polyethylene glycol) -not PG are common laxatives. PEG laxatives are usually in powder form to be mixed with water. While VG would be a suppository.
The PEG used in some e-liquids usually has a molecular weight of around 400 and is in liquid form. The higher molecular weights for the powdered PEG laxative is usually around 1500.
