If you like ritual and complication RDAs might actually be the best choice for you. They will have the advantage of saving you lots and lots of money long term as well as the ashes and smell problem.
RDAs are also known as “drippers” because they hold very little liquid and you drip a bit in at a time. They use old style coils and cotton making them very cheap to run. Changing out the cotton and coils and replacing it can be ritualistic, as can the dripping.
I’m tempted to point you at a profile RDA and some sort of fairly simple mod to run it on. The profile has little screens instead of coils and can do FROM very airy MTL to full fat DL
I’ve been
vaping for a long time though and I’m not as up on the newer systems as I might be though. Others may have better suggestions.
You will probably get acres of “buy this pod system or that pod system! They’re awesome!!” Pods ARE the simplest way to vape, and the entry cost is very low (unless you buy from a gas station). Their continuing costs are so high though they frequently actually rival or exceed smoking. They may be worth starting on to see if you like
vaping at all. But if you keep it up youll want better stuff.
