A good $25 setup?

[Niteowl71]

OK so I was thinking of buying this kit that comes with a iJoy 1300mah VV with a Aspire ET S tank for $23.00 from My Freedom Smokes, but before I do since I'm still kinda new to the vaping world and I trust all you veterans options I'd like to see if there is a better setup out there, please remember while a MVP 20w with a Nautilus tank is in the future I only have a budget of $25.

25$ bucks is really slim, maybe you can get a decent clearomizer tank out of that but battery+tank for 25$ wont be that good, usable maybe but satisfying probably not.

I have to agree... It doesn't look like much of a performer, unless it's better than what you currently use?
What are you using these days?

 

[Danbrooks2k]

Kanger EMOW maybe or a BDC or BVC tank on an ego.

It would be hard to do much of anything for 25$, then you would need juice.

Perhaps the cheapest mech mod and dripper on fast tech... cotton balls and some wire... You will have to buy coils otherwise and that costs money as well.

Might be able to find a cheap MVP 2.0 starter kit on clearance somewhere which comes with a half-decent Innokin tank, but it'll be closer to the $40 range.

I would pass on that iJoy/Aspire combo, while it'll vape, it's really just a false economy because you'll be ditching both ASAP.

"Good" and "cheap" never go together.

I would say your best bet is to save up and don't waste the 25.00

Ok if your looking for $25 dollars it's gonna be a tough fit but the Eleaf istick is right in the price range and if you can squeeze out 10 or 15 more you got a semi decent tank. I have started 3 people on this when they said the most they would spend is 35 this device is well worth it and will probably outlast your Ijoy this is a solid save the extra 10-15 and get this it will save you frustration. I get the vaping on a budget thing. I have been there and a cheap shoddy device is not the way to go. cuz when it's dead it's dead. Please do not sell your self short.

Also they have the ce5 for $5 so 30 in total plus juice and you're good to go!

That is a good price, and the batteries in the iSticks last....!

Right now I'm just using a cheap $20 ego made by PIKE e juice

As others have said, if you can spend a little bit more you will get a much bigger bang for the buck.

But if the money isn't negotiable, perhaps two of these and some spare coils:

(Come in different colors, look at the list on the lower-right).

The H2 heads aren't bad at all, but these batteries will probably die or break within a couple of months.

We got plenty of juice so that's no big deal

As a long time vapor I would definitely recommend you get quality gear. Early on I found myself reverting to analogs every time I hit a bump and it was always a result of subpar equipment. I really wanted to quit smoking and in the end I ended up spending hundreds of dollars on cheap kits before realizing that just getting solid gear was a much better investment.

That being said, I would highly recommend an Atlantis or Kangertech Subtank mini with an Aspire CF Sub Ohm battery. Very easy to use and the vaping experience is just plain awesome.

The stuff available now is so much better than the 808 gear I started with.

That is a serious good thought

Thing with Fast Tech is I'm kinda of in need of a battery and waiting 3-4 weeks is a little long

I don't think you can get a decent starter set for $25. Heck, a 30ml bottle of juice is going to be half of that. You're just throwing your money, and likely, after doing it, you'll be saying "Well, I tried vaping, but it sucked".

I've saved a ton of money since I switched to vaping, since I'm not smoking 3 packs a day. The fact that I used to be a heavy smoker makes it easier for me to save than someone who didn't smoke much. I don't buy a lot of new vape gear these days, because I have good gear already. But when I first started vaping, I'd use one thing for awhile, and it wasn't quite right, so I'd try something else, move up the ladder a bit, get something a little better than I had before. I wasted a lot of money that way. Eventually, I bought a used Provari. Stick a good tank on that, fill it with juice you like, and you're set.

$25 is going to get you the equivalent of a gas station disposable ecig, and chances are, you won't use it for long. I'd really recommend against it.
