Have you any experience with gennys? If not - there is a steeper learning curve, to attain a solid build, than with a Kayfun type atty. By comparison, the only thing (marginally) easier to build than a KF, is a sQuape... due to the thumb nuts and high resistivity of the ematal deck.

If you're on a budget, FT just started carrying a glass tank sQuape clone for around $20. No personal experience with whatever mystery brand FT sells (Hcigar, Tobeco - not a clue)... only the genuine Stattqualm and the EhPro clone, which is on the higher end of the clonosphere.

Saying that, you'd probably be better off starting with a KFL+/Russian 91% clone... FT carries 2-3 variations, all under $27.

You can pick up Efest IMRs for around 6-8 bucks, and a Nitcore i4 Intellicharger for under $20. These are the least expensive batteries and charger that I feel comfortable recommending.

I agree strongly. I have had great results with the Fasttech Kayfuns.

+1 on the Kayfun / Russian avenue. Great devices, and although I haven't messed with all the clones, I have heard very good things about many of them as well. With the ease of use of the Kayfuns / R91%, I cannot convince myself that I want to deal with a Genny. Keep in mind that as soon as I say that, someone will come along with the exact opposite opinion and crow FOR the Genny's...and they will be just as correct; the ability to get a good vape and device preference are just as much about the user as the device. I think that it is easier to get good performance out of a KFL+ / R91%, but the possible vape quality after all the learning and fiddling required is likely a bit higher with a good Genny and a good build. Agree with the above, if you know how to build Gennies, go for it. If you don't, KFL+ or R91% is easier.

+1 on the Nitecore Intellicharger i4. I just bought one for about...$17, I think. I have been super happy and impressed with it as a charger, and I can't imagine myself ever buying anything else in the future. Very solid and inexpensive devices, check Amazon and you'll find bunches of em for pennies.

Batteries? There's a lot of right answers here. I am using Orbtronic NCR186500PD 2900mah's, unprotected, and I picked them up from the Orbtronic store on Amazon for $20 / set of 2. These have a 10 amp limit, so if you want to cook some serious subohms, I might look into the Sony US18650VTC4's. They are 2100mah and have a massive 30 amp limit (so 15 amps continuous is definitely doable). Those will also run about $11 each on Amazon. I don't know much about the E Fest batteries, as I specifically wanted the high amp limit cells I purchased (my device has a 5 amp limit, and electrical safety says have twice the limit / protection that you anticipate at maximum), but I know a lot of folks here will swear by them, and they would know.

Hey Dan...

Well, I don't know about all FT Kayfun/Russian clones (I understand that some aren't even good enough to qualify as paperweights )...
... but the one I linked to is toward the higher end of the FT / Tobeco quality spectrum, one I've actually laid hands on, and it is a (semi) R91% clone, so a bit better in that regard than what I've seen of some of the lower cost FT / KFL+ variations.

I seldom order anything from FT... but a good friend is an FT junkie, easily ordering a few hundred bucks a month from them. It's often a hit and miss proposition - but as I'm the one who builds all his rebuildable attys (he has fine motor control issues) I get to see what's well done and what's crap... without investing my own cash.
