How much does he smoke a day?
For how long?
Does it need to look like a cigarette?
Is he satisfied with his current set up?

Boodle asks because most pvs people get at gas stations aren't all that... So you may want to get him something different/cheaper/better.
Their website barely works and doesn't even take online orders... They claim their battery lasts two days!! and don't even show a picture of it... This doesn't seem to be a reputable vendor at all.
Edit: I started with one like this too--bought at PB in CA. They can be okay but my point is that for much less money ECF people can help you find a comprable model w/accessories from a great vendor. That's why we are asking these questions...

Looks a lot like this Green Smart Living thing I've got. Honestly, it's really not that bad for something to start with. Heck, it got me off smokes in less than a week. It also landed me here so I could make an informed descision on what product to go with next.
As for the OP question......listen to these guys. They know what they're talkin about.

Mistic carries no really useful information about their cigs on the site. Another thread suggests that Mistics might be rebranded DSE-901s.
VaporKings carries this item: DSE 901 Joye 510 and RN4081 e-Cigarette PCC (Personal Charging Case)
It's kind of cheap crap though, and I'm not positive about it being compatible with the Mistics. Good luck.

A nicer PCC kit would be something like this one from Smokeless Image: Smokeless Image | Only The Best Electronic Cigarette | Volt - Pro Starter Kit - Starter Kits. It may be compatible with the Mistic atomizers bought from the gas station (assuming Mistic = 901). You would just charge the batteries you get with the kit in it. It might fry the Mistic batteries.
I think you'll have a hard time finding that. They look like they are rebranding a cheaper e-cig version, similar to the mall kiosks. My bet is these guys won't say what they are compatible with. If they did you could find cheaper refill parts on-line.
My opinion.
Switch him to a ego-t kit, The battery life will be 3x what he get now (just guessing, but this looks a lot like the mall kiosk rip off types typical 180Mah batteries), and he'll be able too select from a ton of on-line flavors. Check out ivape.net, or myfreedomsmokes.com, look for ego-t start kits, and pick up a 30ml bottle of e-juice.
You'll be son-law of the year, and maybe he'll lighten up on the grandkid talk for a while.

There is no way to tell what it is - since it comes with cartomizers I doubt DSE901. If it is slightly thicker than 9mm it MIGHT be KR808D-2 (not well supported - sold be rebranders like Greensmoke and Smoke 51 Duo, I don't know if any have PCC) or the more supported KR808D-1 (flat PCCs available at vapor4Life.com, SmokelessImage, Bloogplanet). or it could be something else.
If it is slightly under 9mm diameter then it may be some random Chinese wholesaler model like E8
but sorry - no way to tell for sure unless Mistic will tell you (I doubt it)

I have one of these Mistic ecigs... not bad for someone who is just starting out... but I only got it to advise my brother who found it at a truckstop. at first, I thought that it was a 901 thread... It is slightly longer than my 901, but the thread is otherwise the same. the batteries and cartos are not compatible with either 510 or 901. I haven't been able to find anything else about the devices other than their reference to 601 (a number that is prolific among e-pipes.. possibly due to the connection?)
the charging unit is a standard 5VDC input (USB) and has a 4.6VDC-120mA output... just in case anyone has any ideas.

If the battery is male and it is not 901 compatible, then my guess is E9 aka KR808D-2 - you can get some cartomizers at AZSmokeFree or VaporKings.com or Greensmoke or Red Dragon of Smoke 51 (Duo) and try them. I do not know if they sell a PCC
Just got off the phone with a rep for Mistic. The reason that you can only find them in travel centers, is because their parent company in a reseller to Travel Centers. I'm still trying to find out who their manufacturer is, but the initial claim is that they are made and tested in USA. more to come when I get more.
There is an M601 (S'Moore) model. Another forum thread suggested the M601 was thread-compatible with the RN4081.
I picked one of these up on a whim at a truck stop. $15 for a bat, 2 carts, and a USB charger. I got the "traditional" flavor, which I think means terrible because that is how it tastes. I have only had it for a day so I can't say how long it will last yet. I plan to try to refill it with something palatable when it is empty.
That said, it does put out really good, very warm vapor. The throat hit is really good too. I also found that the battery is really responsive, yet not at all sensitive to sound.
Not sure what model it is. 808 (V4L) carts fit on it with a gap and they do work, however the Mistic carts do not work with a V4L bat. The thread is much longer on the Mistic.

You best bet would be to check out the suppliers on the main page and get your dad a decent starter kit with a pcc, MyVaporStore has the KR808 starter kits and pcc's. That would be a simple one to start with and then maybe move on to a more advanced one.
Yep, I agree with the posters above. The best thing to do would be to look into upgrading him to a better PV.
A nice PCC present would be an 808, M601 or (my favorite) a 901 PCC like this one from Sharp Smoker
Another great present that I hope somebody in my family will give me for x-mas is a 601 e-pipe.

Thanks for all the advice, I would upgrade my farther in law but he is a little technology phobic. The only reason he's using the ecig he has now is because it's just as easy for him to pickup a pack of refills at the gas station as it was to get a pack of analogs.
Good luck. I would think he could handle a KR808D-1 like the Volt (with maybe a XL PCC) if the Mistic refills will fit on it, but whatever works.
I saw the Mistic at my local Truck Stop and since my partner is a truck driver with a fuel bonus points card for that truck stop (2 pennies per gallon of diesel purchased) I bought one on TA points, making it free, as will be cartomizers for it. I have had it 3 days, good warm vapor, nice TH, reasonable battery life. Does take 4-5 hours to fully charge but lasts 6-8 hours. (they claim 2 days but that depends on use) The biggest negative is refilling, the cartos are sealed units so, it's syringe or condom method ONLY.
I normally use a 510 with cartos, vapor wise it is comparable. I'll see how long parts last. for the price (15.00 cash) if it lasts and performs well for 90 days I'll be satisfied it's worth the price, beyond that and it gets to be a better value for an entry level PV.

To refill, I just popped the mouth piece off, took out the o-ring inside, and dripped around the edges. It holds a good amount of liquid and works great.
