Christmas present advice

[BiXLL]

My son is wanting to get into the variable volt scene since he is now starting DIY juices. I was thinking that it would make a good Christmas present for him but I know nothing about them and what all I would need to buy. I am hoping I can come in at $100.00 or less, but I don't want to buy low quality. Can I get some advice/opinions from you guys as what to look at at getting and what all I would need to get?

If you want to stay under $100 and Variable Volt I would recommend:

2 1300 Spinners ($25 each)

If he is into DIY juices without knowing what he is currently using then you can add charger/juice devices etc.

If you go ZMAX/Lavatube/etc you need to add on charger/batteries/etc.

but what about the actual battery or what ever its called?

OK, here is what I am thinking, is this a good product and am I on the right track?
*MINI* MVari Starter Kit
SMOKTech 510 Dual Coil Tank Combo
was thinking a couple extra batteries maybe too? (it does use 2 batteries?)

That is not a bad starter kit, it has everything you need. The 2 batteries that come with it should be enough. Be sure to get the 2.5ohm on the tank (minimum required by the MVari)

I was looking through some other threads and found this is basicly the same thing for a lot less so I went with it and a smoketech tank

That one uses dual batteries. Stay away from 2 battery mods. Every ecig that has exploded has used more than one battery at a time. What happens is that people put one fully charged battery in along with one that is partially charged. The fully charged battery tries to equalize the voltages by quick charging the weaker battery when you press the fire button. The result is a rapid heat buildup that results in pressure and venting of gases. This can happen really quickly, the venting results in the tube hissing and exploding within a few seconds. Dangerous ...

Stick with single battery mods that use electronics to achieve voltages higher than 3.7v. These are referred to as variable voltage mods. The Lavatube is one of those and there are many types and brands. Use the link below to see what's available and how much they cost. There are 1 to 5 star reviews on each model.

i see that you already placed your order, so i'm a little late. gift certificates are always a safe bet. keeps you from having to guess, and it assures the recipient will always get what they are looking for. trust me, my mom's idea of good fishing tackle is not the same as mine!

I know there are better units out there, but with what we have all ready gotten him, cost was a factor. He will at least be able to see if he likes the VV mod scene and go from there with this one.

OK, I was able to cancel the order so I am back in the hunt looking for advice from the experianced. This time I won't be so quick to pull the trigger.
