Hey guys, My first ecig was the volcano unit, but I'm looking for something more powerful but equally as portable. I was looking at Volcano's "Magma" just because of all the stuff you get with it seems like a good deal. It's handy to get all those carts and such for the money. My main thing I'm looking for is stockpiling; enough carts, or juice with refillable carts, or whatever, just enough stuff to last me a long time. I want all this from one site, for under 100 bucks. If anyone can help me out with this it'd be great. :laugh:
Hopefully what I'm asking isn't unreasonable.

Hi there. There are so many ways to answer and all may be equally valid. I don't think what you're asking is unreasonable. I'm mainly reading this as "how can I stretch the dollar as far as possible". If you're not too worried about brands or looks and just want something that will give good service, my suggestion would be:

A 2xAA (14500 battery) box mod from, for example, Madvapes. Not pretty, but quite small and very effective. Advantages to this are - rugged build. Cheap to buy. Cheap replacement batteries with good capacity. Should be user repairable (switch etc.).
A Trustfire multicharger
Some 14500 batteries
A selection of 510 atomizers (try some low resistance ones etc. if you want). You might also want to try some 510 cartomizers.
A drip tip or two and some blank cartridges.
A selection of 50ml bottles of Dekang juice (each one will refill around 100 510 cartridges). The USA Mix, 555, Desert Ship, Menthol flavours are pretty safe choices IMO.

This little lot should give good service and last you for quite a while.

Great advice, as always, from Papa!

Picking up on your "I want all this from one site" comment. I suspect you specify this in order to avoid duplicating shipping costs. Another approach is to order from suppliers who provide free shipping (for a low minimum order). They include LiteCigUSA, Rocky Mountain Vapor, and Good Prophets. All have broad selections of well-priced hardware and e-liquid.

Also, a box mod like the one Papa recommends, is indeed the least expensive way to go for a 900 mAh, true 3.7V experience.

But, if you had in mind something more tubular in shape, consider either an inexpensive tube mod or a fat batt:

  • The least expensive tube mod I know of is the Sparkplug, currently on sale for $40 (full kit including bottle of e-liquid). It uses an inexpensive 750 mAh, true 3.7V 16340 battery and penstyle atomizer.

  • Of the fat batts, two of the most cost-effective are from BreezEsmokes (selected because of models carried and price). They both use the same 510 attys and cartos as that box mod. The JSB VGO-900 (900 mAh, ~3.4V): $30 for a one-battery kit, $18 for additional batteries.

Since I am a penstyle man, I would get the one-battery 800 mAh Leo (in fact I did), currently on sale at Vapin' in the Cape for $40. With the possible exception of the EastMall 801 atty on a 3.7V mod, the Leo is my favorite vape to date.
