Hello, please point my in the right direction!

New user, looks like a fantastic community.

I have tried various vape kits but only the ones you can buy at convenience stores and honestly they never made me happy.
I want something that's going to be low maintenance, easy to maintain, I don't want to go through several atomizers/batteries to keep vaping. Last of all it has to be affordable. What is the most reliable, and yet cheapest vape kit I can order online?

hi Adam and welcome to ECF,

The kits at the convenience stores leave a lot to be desired. You might want to look at the kgo kit.

Hello, Adam. I started with a KGO (still use as a back up). They fire every time, can last a couple of days, and are affordable.

I highly recommend the Biansi iMist. I've been vaping for 2 1/2 years, been through quite a few different models and it's the best eCig I've tried so far. It's super easy to clean but it wicks and tastes much, much better with the stainless steel wick mod. Just make sure you look up how to properly make the wicks or you will end up shorting out the atomizer if you don't get lots of oxidation on there. There are better eCigs out there but this would be my recommendation for a beginner to intermediate vaper or one with limited cash to fork out.

I would say ego/kgo and if it's affordable enough get an ego twist. At least if you get an atty or carto that has a higher resistance you can "twist" up the power a lil bit.

Ego twist kits at vapors choice for 50$. Or plain ego kits for 35. Don't think you'll find a better deal for great equipment.

Neilmd, while I am a fan of rebuildables myself, I would never suggest them to someone getting started as a "low maintenance, easy to maintain" set up. They have a learning curve that is not something everyone can handle.

I'll add my name to the many people suggesting a Kgo or eGo Twist kit.
They're solid reliable systems, innexpensive, easy to use and can take a variety of tanks or cartomizers.

I also agree with the rest, ego/kgo kits are "ole reliable". The ego twist is nice for increasing voltage to your liking. It's a nice beginner kit and will eventually be your back up if you grow into vaping mods.

Thank you everyone, I think I am going to go with the eGo.
Other concerns are of course:

1. No mouthful of e-liquid. I know this is my fault for trying to refill disposable e-cigs.

and

2. Avoid dry/harsh hits with proper maintenance.

I have a XHALE o2 disposable, and it has a cartridge inside the cartridge, I fill that and put the cap on the inside cartridge and put some in the battery end with condom method, then I blow out the excess and I'll be lucky to get 3-4 good hits before it's dry/harsh again.

The ego with either a stardust type of CE2 carto or some normal cartos like boge both will provide a good vape time before it begins to dry out and both do not put juice in the mouth as long as its not over filled
