Hi All,

I new to this forum, so bear with me if i will ask things that already been asked.
I'm also new to this vaping, i started 10 days ago to quit the real cigarettes, but i find myself keep vaping, ATM i have a Style cigarette, and i keep refill and charge.
So i was pondering to invest in a pipe mod and i was looking to:
Guardian III kit - SMOK® Being with you for all great vaping time! or ILINE : Electronic Pipe quality | J WELL™

So which one you guys suggest?

Thanks For your Help


PS: Sorry for my First and Long Tread

Holy crap, about a year ago there wasn't such a nice option for an e-pipe on the market. That thing looks very slick, and SMOK makes pretty decent products in general. Not sure if there's a better e-pipe option on the market, but someone else might be able to chime in.

If I didn't just buy a new mod I'd consider getting that thing -- it really looks nice. I can't speak for "ILINE" as I've never bought or known anyone to buy any of their products. SMOK is probably a more reliable/well-known company.

ok...

yeah, that looks interesting;
it's an 18650 tc mod.

Ok, yes, it looks like a good setup; comes with a tfv4 too.

Welcome and glad you joined.

They look to be somewhat portable (rather large device from photos when compared to a hand holding the assembled tank), on the go, devices. If that's the case, wouldn't you want something that is certainly shock resistant or better yet, at least semi drop proof? I would rather buy something like, 2 each istick 40 TC's for the money.
Suggest holding off until you get actual users feed back.

The largest difference between the 2 that I saw was the mah (battery life). The Smok will give you longer battery life using the 18650 battery. Smok makes some great tanks as well.

I wasn't too impressed with the bluetooth phone hookup with teh Smok products but I do have 2 of their TFV4 tanks (which guzzle the juice) and really enjoy them.

If it were me I'd look at getting a box mod and a nice tank, but whatever you get will make a nice backup for the next purchase after this one.

Welcome aboard! I was a pipe smoker/collector from 1974 until October last year. I started vaping with an e-pipe ( Kamry K 1000 ) which I still have and use of an evening.

When I started out I thought I would have to have a pipe-a-like and that nothing else would do. I found e-pipes too heavy to clench unlike tobacco pipes because of the weight of the battery and of course in most you have to hold the fire button to make them work.

I also bought an E Tecc rather beautiful full bent e- pie with a vacuum switch so you didn't have to press the said fire button. It shorted out after three weeks.

IMHO e pipes are for use at home sitting down relaxing and aren't really the ideal all day everyday vaping device. Previous posters have suggested opting for a couple of box mods and tanks and I would tend to agree with them.

My own suggestion would be to consider an iStick 30w topped with a Nautilus Mini. The Mini is quite good again in my personal opinion as it has variable airflow and wide open it does replicate the draw of a Peterson Pipe pretty well.

Welcome again and happy vaping with whatever you choose!

The Smok does look pretty nice, but not familiar with the micro TFV4 mini or whatever they called it. But I also believe holding a nice box mod would satisfy that "in hand" feeling. If you can, go to a vape shop and put your hands on some box mods and see how that feels to you.

And welcome to the forum where you will be exposed to a plethora of options on great gear. :D :vapor:

There is no comparison between the SMOK and the 'other' one.

The Smok uses an 18650 (so, up to 3,000mAh) and offers a wider power range. Up to an astonishing 75 watts.
The iLine uses two 18350s (700 mAh) so the battery life will be poor and it probably won't get much over 10 watts.

Chalk and cheese. :)
