Choice between 3. Opinions please!

[Cysefin]

Good day again!

So... I'm looking to get a starter kit and I only have 3 options. I don't have a credit card and I can't order online. These are the 3 units that I have found locally.

A "Smoke NV" kit (looks like k808 but the sellers don't actually know) $60 includes 1 battery, 3 carts, wall charger and usb charger.

A "Blu" kit (looks the same as above) $100 includes the "Case" which charges on the go, 1 (or maybe two) batteries, the wall charger and usb charger but no carts.

A "X-Hale" kit from 7-11 (no visible model number) $25 includes 1 battery, 1 cart, usb charger.

I really don't care about the "charging on the go" feature of the Blu... it's not that difficult to plug in a battery every night or every few days as necessary. The "X-hale" has the convenience of readily available carts. The carts for the first 2 I can only buy in a certain store in my town.

Mostly, I'm interested in your opinions on "Hit", vapour quality/quantity and flavour.

Anything you've got would be great! Thanks a bunch.

most canadian sites dont use credit cards, they use e-mail money transfers from your bank acount

No experience with any of them. Welcome to ECF!

Might be more helpful to post in Canada forums since they're more likely to give you helpful hints. If you where a light smoker some of those may be okay. If you where a heavier smoker you may want to consider a fat bat. A starter kit really shouldn't be so expensive, so I'm a little concerned for you there. The issue with gas station "7-11" kits is they're so cheap the performance is going to suck. Best of luck getting the answers you need! Hopefully you have a vape shop close enough to you!

To the OP:

I don't see that any of your choices are very good. I don't think that you will be happy with the battery life on any of those. I'd beg borrow or steal a way to get to a good website and get some good gear. For the price of that Blu kit, you could get a Lavatube.

Thanks folks! Cross posted to Canada Forum... hopefully someone on one of the groups has experience with these models.

All three are not very good, unfortunately. I would definitely stay away from the "Blu". One of the worst on the market.

I would use a money order or you can use paypal on the Liberty Flights site and pay from your checking account. That would be your best bet. They are very reputable.

From Liberty Flights, I would strongly suggest you get the Riva 510, which is a much better model than the three you listed. Warmer vapor and batteries that last 3 times longer than the ones you listed. Plus the whole Riva 510 kit costs about $35. Here is their site:

Like everyone else has said, none of those are very good.

I'd recommend perhaps picking up a Visa gift card? I don't think shipping to Canada is a concern...

I noticed that Crystal Clear Vaping has a money order option, which if I'm not mistaken that's where you send money directly to the vendor. That's an okay option.

+1, good suggestions.

I posted this in the Cdn Forum/ his other post:
"It would help if you revealed in your info exactly where you are in Canada. There are vendors country wide and I know many of the gear/ juice can be picked up/ ordered in person.
Good Luck, Vapoor."
Happy New Year.

+1, good suggestions.

it's not that difficult to plug in a battery every night or every few days as necessary.

Change "days" to "hours" and you'll have a much more realistic estimation of the battery life you'll see from the choices you listed.

DO NOT go for the Blu! You'll be sorry if you do. They spend more time on the charger than in your hand.
