E-Pipe Recommendations for my Father

[Pjump]

Ok so a little bit of Background. My Dad has been smoking a pipe for the last 36 years, I've recently started getting my mum (a cig Smoker of 30 years) onto e-cigs but i'm now looking to see if I can find a reasonable good value e-pipe for my dad to try. He is in his 60's and so isn't going to change to an e-cig, box mod or cloud chasing any time soon.

I figured a few must have points :-

1) It must be around £50 or under (in case he doesn't like it)
2) It must be simple to use (no fiddly coils to change etc.)
3) it must look like a traditional pipe.

My Dad worked in IT for his whole life and is up to date on tech etc. But getting him to try this will be a big step as he is so used to his pipe so it has to be quite rugged as well.


Thanks in advance for your help

1) Might be doable
2) not a chance, how is he going to vape w/out coils to mess with?
3) not going to happen if #1 is a must

With #2 I meant he won't cope with an rta or rba style tank kanger or aspire style coils would be OK but he wouldn't get on with the idea of winding and cotton ingredients his own builds

As to #3 I meant that it can't be the metal space age looking type as he has always used a wooden pipe and didn't like the metal framed styles.

As for #1 I'm reconsidering that too as if he doesn't like it I'll probably take it back for myself so thinking reasonable pricing but 510 connector so I can use my own tank

I looked at that but my dad has always used smaller pipes so that would probably be too much as his starter kit, I don't want to push him straight away so I need something more like a pipe-a-like with a re-fillable tank right now. Also if I did go for that knowing I'd get it back for myself the other half would kill me because I've currently got a dna 40, a subox an Nebox and a topbox just in the last year lol

Kamry k1000 kit? Can be found for 40-60$

I've seen bad reviews of the kamry pipes saying the solder melts and I want something definitely safe and well made because it's for my dad.

Thanks anyway
