You do get an atomiser with that of course, and a spare tank means you can have more than one flavour current.
But if you want the batteries, you can get those separately, as you can the atomisers. There's no need to go for a starter kit each time.
EVOD 650 Batteries [VE506] - £13.99 : Vape Escape
Kanger Protank Spare Heads (5) [VE515] - £8.95 : Vape Escape
Although personally I prefer the Joytech batteries. The buttons are easier to find without looking:
Joyetech eGo-C 650 Battery - Price £13.95 : Vape Escape
In fact my starter kit wasn't a starter kit:
1 x Joyetech eGo-C Twist VV (VE367) Choose Your Twist 1000mah Steel £24.95
1 x EVOD BC Clearomiser (VE505) Colour Stainless Steel £5.95
1 x Ego/Riva USB Charger (VE144) £4.75
1 x RY-5 10ml (VE587) Strength 18mg (Medium) £4.95
Sub-Total: £40.60
Only one battery, but it was VV. I had a mall-bought 510-type thing for backup. It wasn't long before I got a second battery and more clearomisers though.
Thanks.
I'm relatively set up for now. I've got three batteries, three tanks and about 10 atomizers. I've just been looking on google at how you can clean and change the coils. However when they are only £1 each I don't know if it's worth changing the coil rather than just buying a new atomizer, it really depends on how long they last. I've just cleaned the one I took out and it was filthy. I'll try it when my tank is empty.
I do quite fancy having variable voltage/wattage. However that's more because this is like a new hobby for me at the moment. I'm not really sure how much use I will have for it though.
