First of all, welcome to the Underground!

Sounds like you are off to a decent start.

First of all get plenty of spare coil head for the Aspire. Trust me they will not go to waste and without them you are not vaping!

Batteries? I like the LG 3000 mAh brown batteries.

The Samsung 25r batteries are also good.

Get an Xtar 4 bay charger. It will last forever and grow with you.

Ohms, amps and resistance. Save that for later.

Get to know your new gear first!

Nice starter kit! You have the option of Temperature Control with the cube. As far as batteries, you'll need 2 18650's. I would recommend getting 2 pair and "marry" them (use the same 2 batteries in that mod, so charge them together and use them together) I personally prefer the LG HE4's or LG HG2's. I get mine from "genuine cells" on eBay. Good prices and their batteries are authentic. I think he sells them in 4 packs as well and for each pair you buy you get a battery case. As far as chargers, I prefer the Xtar you can get VC2 or VC4. Nitecore is also are very good charger. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Me, I would go for the 0.50 ohm.

Why on earth do you want a headache?

BTW, you will be wanting some E-Liquids to fill your tank with.

As you are new, with the setup you have, I would go with a 50/50 PG/VG mix.

6mg of nic or 12 to start with.

I like this place...........................

And start drinking a lot of water NOW!

Vaping will dehydrate your mouth tissues to the point where you cannot taste your E-Liquids!

Found helpful and thx for ur helping for new vapors
some of informantion are very detailed and still don't know about like: duel core vs single core , ohm , amp , volt protected batteries vs unprotected , imr , li ion .....etc . And many more .
My only concern is being safe and not causing damage by not understanding and miss translation what other persons posts or comment , so I prefer step by step and I'm thankful for your help try to offer us .

I'm considering safety

The batteries you want are unprotected IMR - I know "unprotected" sounds like the opposite of what you'd think, but trust me until someone with better battery knowledge can jump in... @Jon@LiionWholesale ?

I personally recommend sticking only to Samsung 25R, LG HE2, HE4, or Sony VTC3, VTC4, or VTC5. These are all manufacturers and models well-known to be safe for vaping, though the Sonys are very often counterfeit.

With good batteries and a good charger (Xtar, Efest LUC, or Nitecore Digicharger/Intellicharger) you're set to begin using that Xcube and Atlantis - start reading up on Ohm's Law and coil building but don't worry if it takes you some time to sort it out while you're still using factory-built devices. You're safe until you switch to mechanical mods or start building your own coils.

Did not know they were out this week. Might also try liionwholesale. They are an approved VU vendor, and you can see his posts in the battery junkie forum.

I also go so far as to rotate the positions of the "married" set. I've noticed that sometimes the drain on each isn't equal.

@Markeoni: Start by putting both batteries in the charger and making sure they're both topped-off. Read whatever documentation that came with the batteries and charger, first. Understand your hardware.

WARNING! Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries can be dangerous! Treat them with respect. In particular: I never let high-power Li-ion cells like these charge unattended. So charge 'em up while you're hanging out-watching TV, reading a book, or whatever.

While the batteries are charging: Spend some time with the User's Manuals for your tank and mod.

Let us know when you've completed the above.

@vuJim .
Thanks for replying .
I read the instruction on the charger , there was no instruction for the battaries .
The good thing it said on the charger that it will turn off charging when battaries are full .so no overcharging .
I have problem with two things , what is the discharged battaries volt ? And what's mean topped off ?
My battaries are LG HG2 18650 . 3.7 v 3000 mah

You're quite welcome.

An 18650 battery should generally not be allowed to fall under about 2.7 to 3V with no load. Anything under that and the battery might be ruined. "Topped-off" means fully-charged. Put them in the charger until it says they're charged and you should be good to go.
