So I first bought a spinner two and it didn't make enough vape for me. I was then talked into getting an yilong fogger and fancy battery which ilove, but have no idea what I'm doing. Are there any smaller mods, that have higher watts and make more vape then a pen style? I'm not looking forward to learning how to build coils and changing cotton, and was hoping there's a happy medium. I'm using a nautilus tank on the spinner and it's still pretty weak.

I have same fogger V4 as you using it on a Joyetech epic supreme and it absolutely epic in both taste and vape, paid 95 euro for mine but would budget for a couple of extra batteries, only using the fogger since yesterday but am seriously impressed with it, bit of a ..... to build the coils on though or maybe I just shouldn't have been half drunk doing it

Look into the Vapor Shark high-wattage regulated box mod. Its small in size yet has plenty of power, if somewhat on the expensive side. Hey, you should be saving money by not buying cigarettes. This is an investment for your health and future.

Using the new BVC (bottom vertical coil) in your current Aspire tank should provide a better flavor & vapor experience. These coils will likely revolutionize clearomizers. Some say they give a vaping experience just short of rebuildable tank atomizers.

I second your thoughts on bvc.coil coils in the Nautilus, they're really good and relatively inexpensive to use but they haven't a patch on a well built and we'll wicked dual coil RB, I only did my first yesterday but got it bang on and mother of God the difference is something else, I'll be keeping my Nautilus one for back up as they are probably more reliable but just get in the with the RBG thing it's defo worth it

The new Eleaf iStick goes up to 20w and is about $40 with shipping. I found my aerotanks put out a decent amount of vapor and flavor is pretty good, but I love my rebuildables the most. Depends on your comfort level at this time.

When I first started vaping my biggest concern was that my equipment worked easily and well because going back to smoking would have been easy. Hence the aerotanks, spinner and mvp. Now I am very much into rebuildables and have several. If one or two need rewicked and I don't have time right then, its ok because I have others until I can get to them. My cig cravings are pretty much gone, but those first 3 months I needed no nonsense equipment.

I was a 'newbie' a year ago, and used 'vaping' to quit my 30yrs 2pad smoking habit.

I went through all the various newbie 'junk', like most of us have. I also have bad hands so even if I wanted to learn to rebuild stuff, I can't.

If you want to keep costs as low as possible, either the MVP2, or the new iStick will honestly do the job for you power-wise. Yes, you can always spend more and get more power - only you can decide what your goal is. The Nautilus with 'BVC' heads will make a very good topper for you. Gives you choices on how airy a draw you like as well.

Then, the key is finding a juice that you really like, with a NIC level that works for you. I am still at 24mg NIC (which is on the high side) - but it's what works for *you* that counts.

You could also go the carto/tank route - you're buying new cartos instead of new heads. There is about as many power choices as there are opinions. I have and really enjoy my ProVari. But when out and about I use the MVP2, and I just ordered myself a iStick.

Again, you can spend as much as you want/can afford, or go cheap with a few good items and still get a very good vape. You need to decide what your goals are here? I vape rather than smoke. My goal is simple, what is the easiest way for me to vape without having to carry spare this and spare that around with me all the time?

A Nautilus with an MVP2, freshly charged and filled with 5mls of nice juice will keep me good for 6-7hrs - I only carry a spare head, as while they usually go bad slowly over time, rarely, one will just poof! Stop firing, rare, but it does happen.
