Another New Member, recommendations

[Phoenix1984]

First post!

First and foremost, I really want to thank all the new and veteran members out there! I have spent countless hours researching and if it wasn't for all of you taking the time to help us out, I'd be so lost! Thank you

So from what I've gathered, the istick 30w, MVP 20w, and cool fire IV would be great for a beginner.

I'm assuming I'd be more of a throat to lung type starting out, to get me off the analogs. So far, I've only tried the cheap blister packs. They were not satisfying at all. I really don't want to waste my money on those or the other starter kits. I'm really liking the box mods. I've researched tanks as well. I'm thinking the GS air m or ms would be great. Also, the nautilus mini. But my budget right now sadly is $45. So I guess my question is do you guys have any other suggestions than what I've mentioned including other tanks and mods? Also, if the $45 won't cut it for those types, are there any better starter kits you'd recommend?

Thanks again everyone, for taking the time to read this, and all the help you've given! You're genuinely appreciated!

Welcome!​

I can't help with your questions but I am giving you a bump to keep it near the top!

It looks like you can get what you are looking for for about $45.00.

My other suggestion would be the K1 tank. It vapes just like the Nautilus, but without air flow control. You can always drill out the wholes to taste though.

Sweet-Vapes | Electronic Cigarettes & Hand Mixed E-Liquids

$60.00 for everything below minus shipping. It is always nice to have a spare tank. That way if you get sick of a flavor, or have problems you can just put the second tank on, and a way you go. you will want to get some coils though.

What I would suggest is getting the iStick 30W ($34.49) , also order a 5 pack of Nautilus Coils ($10), at Mount Baker Vaper using the coupon "beefcake11" (11 percent off) or "couponism" (10 percent off) and then send me your address, and a copy of your order from them and I'll mail you a used Nautilus Mini in great condition with tracking number. The BVC coils will fit and you're good to go.

I did some browsing around. At that price range to get an authentic Aspire Nautilus Mini and iStick30w, you'd be looking at buying at fasttech and waiting for the snail boat from China if they didn't have them at one of their US warehouses, so would be between 2weeks to 3months shipping time best to worst case.

One more thing. I went with the iStick full kit because it comes with the 510 to Ego adapter. you will need that for the above tanks.

i'm sure if you shop around you can find an istick or mvp3 kit for $45.

For around $45 you can buy the istick 30W and an Aspire Mini Nautilus or Kanger AeroTank 2. I've been vaping for well over three years and these are what I use now. Get some extra coils and you'll be set.

I hear these aren't the best, but are decent.
coupon code "10percentoff" might still work there too.

Thank you! I may have to wait a little longer, but literally stinks cuz I'll be wasting my money on cigs ugh. But I'll get there. I've never tried to quit in my life or really even wanted to, but that day is definitely here now, errr soon I mean, once I buy that stuff

@Phoenix1984, hello and welcome to ECF. As you can see there are a lot of friendly people here willing to answer any questions you may have about vaping. Now that you have your required 5 posts you can post in the other areas. Take care and keep on vaping.

Instead of wasting your money on cigs or those disposable e cig types, try these Equate Mini Nicotine Lozenge Stop Smoking Aid, 4mg, 108 count - Walmart.com

When I was teaching and it was hard to sneak out for a smoke (before I started vaping) the lozenges really helped curb the cravings.

Hmm I didn't even think of that. That is a good idea. I may look into it if I'm unable to purchase what I want right now. I am excited to start my real Vaping experience/journey Thanks again
