Vaporesso makes good stuff.
Personally, I'm not a fan of SMOK products.
The SMOK coils generally require a lot of power from your batteries and the manufacturing quality of the coils leave much to be desired. They are also a DTL (direct-to-lung) tank and juice guzzlers. I would think with your limited vaping history you would benefit more with a MTL (mouth-to-lung) tank (more like smoking a cigarette) like the Innokin Zenith or Aspire Nautilus tanks. Just my

I vape direct lung already don't know how to smoke mouth to lung very well .
In that case, it's usually best to stick with what's already working for you. DL it is. I second the warning about SMOK. Their quality control seems to be non-existent, so you sometimes wind up with something that works well but are just as likely to end up with a failing device. I'll leave it to someone else to suggest an alternative as I'm an MTL vaper myself. Even so, between SMOK's Prince and the NRG, my instinct is to avoid the Prince.
The most powerful DL carto tanks these days I hear are the larger mesh tanks. I’ve heard good things about the freemax mesh. These tanks like high voltage and suck down large amounts of juice both electronic and bottled. As such they want multi battery mods on them, or perhaps a very large LiPo battery. I am an RTA/RDA user myself so my experience in coil cartridges is limited. Hopefully someone will be along with more knowledge in this area. GL 
If you are interested in a wick and wire device I may be able to help of course. The main difference I see in wick-and-wire vs cartridge coils these days is long term cost vs convenience. Modern DL mesh cartridge coils can produce a vape as good as any wick and wire. Just at higher wattage, and of course the cost of coil cartridges starts to add up eventually

The Revenger kit surely is nice, especially when sold with the NRG tank (which can use all Smok TFV8 Baby Beast compatible coils btw = HUGE selection, including mesh coils).
The TFV12 is a wattage monster, something I'd prefer to put onto a 3- or 4-battery mod.

Vaporesso makes some really nice mods in a decent price range. The OMNI chipset is just a step under the Gene Chip in Voopoo. The NRG tank is an excellent starter sub-ohm tank and has some GT Mesh coils available now. I agree about the Smok and being low quality. I sale a lot of Smok product because a lot of people want it and there is no talking them out of it! Some weeks the Smok coils I sale are great and I have no issues then the next batch arrives and people are coming in to get coils every two days due to frequent burn out. Some other good mods to consider are the Vaporesso Luxe 220W, Voopoo drag 2 177W, Geekvape Aegis Legend 2 200W very durable. In smaller 100W or less, Aegis Mini 80w internal battery, vaporesso swag 85W? External battery, VooPoo Caliber Pen 110W, Vaporesso Cascade one plus(wattage varies depending on coil choice). Etc. feel free to ask any questions!

I would choose Vaporesso over SMOK everytime. The GT coils are excellent. I would also add the Armour Pro mod with a Cascade Baby tank to your list.
Welcome and glad you joined.
I found vaping is a little like the learning progression when you first get in to drive a car. The more basic the car, generally, the easier it is to learn on. I recommend purchasing an economical simple vape.From your description above, this is all you need for now. For me vaping is mainly all about the atomizer(juice delivery system) and the expectations of the e liquid you vape.
The information below may help you to obtain a good foundation of vaping knowledge.

Hello and welcome to ECF.
Since dl is working for you I would stick with it. Are the NRG and prince tanks the only ones available or just the two you think you might like? Personally I think the coil quality will be better with the nrg. If you are considering a power tank you would be better served with a Freemax Fireluke or Pro imo. The coils are very good and you can get longer life from them.

It was my 1st external battery mod and I love it so much I bought 5 of them! One in each color. And a year later I still ALWAYS have one in my daily rotation.
It’s a great mod.
The tank in the photo is the original Cascade. The Baby SE isn’t as bulky.
I would also avoid SMOK - when they work they are fine but the coil life is apparently awful. Never owned one but read so many horror stories about them, I will never own one. Not that all SMOKs are awful - just the QA is non existent.
I am relatively new to DL vaping having started on an airy MTL setup. Currently loving the Voopoo Drag mini with a Horizontech Falcon tank. Have also read brilliant things about the Freemax Fireluke Mesh tanks - the coils for them are excellent as they also work in my Voopoo Uforce tank.

I like Vaproresso's stuff and the Cascade combination would probably be better, honestly.
I don't vape sub0hhm though so take that for what it is worth.
