Help an old vaper find a simple kit for a friend

[mlinky]

So I have been vaping since 2010, and still use my original REO's with a rba. Back in the day, I would gift a new vaper with an ego to get them started because it was cheap, simple, and had just enough battery life to not have to recharge constantly. Also, it was easy to switch out attys and try different flavors without worrying about leaky tanks.

I met a young man who smokes 2 packs a day menthol, and is really open to switching. I have a pretty good supply of various flavors of 24mg 80pg/20vg liquid. What can I get him that will make it easy for him to start now (and isn't beyond my ability to help)?

Take a look at the VooPoo Drag X or another PnP based device.

Thanks Shawn. Would he need to go with a lower nic strength?

The Univapo Kipo refillable pod system is a great modern alternative to an ego setup and performs a whole lot better. I highly recommend it for a smoker. I's very simple to use and works very well.

Unfortunately, you will have to order it directly from the manufacturer. They say they ship US orders from a US warehouse so it may not take long at all to get it.

The downside is your friend will have to buy pods from Univapo as it is unlikely a local store will carry them.

Careful buying a smoker a box mod or other larger types of kits. Many smokers are not "hip" to something that isn't small when they first start on the vaping journey. All that money you spend may just go to waste and they will just stick with the cigarettes - total waste. Best to start small (unless the smoker specifically expresses interest in a box mod) and let them upgrade to a larger system if they wish.

There are a variety of PnP coils available as well as a couple rebuildables... choose a higher resistance coil with a tighter draw, and it should be fine. There are also MTL pods available .

I would go with the Innokin Z-Biip. It's not a pod it's an AIO, has a long battery life along with an assortment of available coils, and is a good mid-range device (in between a cheap pod and an actual mod) with an affordable price.

As an experienced vaper I have 4 of these on top of my regular gear (I'm a squonker myself) for using when out and about. I would have loved these when I first started vaping.

@mlinky - If you want to get 1 of the Innokin Z-BIIP Pod Kits talked about above...the US vendor below has them on Sale for just $6.99 per kit, instead of the $27.99 price at Element Vape. You can also click on the Get Coupons button (next to where you select the quantity of kits) for a coupon code to save even more. They also sell the replacement Z-coils, too.

Great feedback, Thanks! If he sticks with it, I'll gift him one of my REOs, or he may just want to try other things.

Thanks OP and JC! This looks like a great option, and I'm really glad to see such a reasonable price. May get one for myself.
