Help choosing an e-cig or vapor

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hey guys,
New to the forum. Me and my buddy are interested in getting some cheap rechargeable e-cigs or vapor. We usually just smoke hookah or cigars and black and milds every so often. We don't smoke that often but we both like the idea of having something with no nicotine that we can have to smoke whenever we feel like it. We usually only smoke maybe 3-5 times a month, if that. What would you guys recommend? We like flavored stuff as well. Something simple and just easy to use. I looked at Volts but not sure if that's what I want or not. Thanks for any help!

Well it all depends on where your comfort zone is and what kind of device you want.

Cigalike-

The Volt and the Eroll are what is usually recommended. These are cigarette looking devices.

Ego-

This is one step up from the cigalike. These are the ones I'm sure you have seen in the news and media and you press a button and vape.

Those are your basic starter ones. Some people get these and in time move on to something higher, or stay with them and that is perfectly ok if that is what works for you :)

Higher up in the "chain" we have ones like the MVP 2.0 that was previously mentioned. It's a smaller box mod (mod is the casing that holds the battery). The MVP is a great all corners covered kind of device. You have variable voltage, variable wattage, pass through capabilities, and a portable battery charger all in one. Long battery life too.

There are lots of devices out there but if you could provide us with more details as to what you would like I would be more than happy to help :) for instance are you looking for a cigarette looking device? Would you mind something bigger? Should it be a box or a tube device? Do you want fancy features or something you can just grab and be done with? What is right for you my friend?
 
Thanks for all the help guys! Can't believe how fast everyone is willing to help! Love that. I just want something that's not too big and that I can have with me on random days where I'll use it. I'm in college so I'll prolly use it on GameDays and just days where a bunch of us hang out. I don't really need anything fancy. I want something I can easily change flavors with and is rechargeable. Like I said our main smoking is black and milds so I kind like things like that but I don't mind trying something different. I don't know how hard it is to change juices and stuff like that. I read don't know much at all haha. At work we sell Blu and those seem simple. You charge the battery and spin on the flavor right? Anything simple and not too expensive for spare use is what I need Haha. Thanks again for the help!

How quickly do the coils on like a kanger die? Are they hard to replace? I just want something simple. Thanks again
 
Start out with an Ego or clone, maybe a Kanger EVOD2 or ProTank, replace the coil when it gets snarky, and keep reading. After a while, you'll have an idea how to clean, rebuild, then mod. Who knows where you'll end up? :vapor:

I haven't yet hit upon "the one", and am beginning to conclude that there's no "perfect" combo, just what's right for my mood at the time. :)

Unfortunately I have only used a pro tank one time and had terrible luck with it. The only disposable tank I have used is the iClear 30s and is still one of my favourite disposable tanks. Not to say the pro tanks are bad as I see a lot of people that like them, I can only give my experience with them. :)

So i am thinking the kanger like others have said. Since we both want one I was thinking buying the kanger evod starter from fitvape.
Would that work? Seems pretty solid to me! Cant post links but its 33.99

Yes that's perfect. I apologize I thought you meant the protank. The EVOD is a great tank that I have used. I highly recommend it :) you will love this. I just looked it up

You can get a 650mah "Value" evod starter kit for $20, or the 900mah version for $23, before shipping.... It is of course a clone of the original made by Kanger but it does exactly the same thing.

I'll refrain from posting the links here as I'm not sure if forum rules disallow it.

So where would you recommend buying juice from? Just standard e-juice? I want good flavors

Hmmmm... Unfortunately I DIY my juice so I haven't bought pre mixed juice in a long time. For that I recommend browsing E-Juice General threads. I hear a lot about MBV (mount baker vapor) as being a good one. They are known for there low prices. I see A LOT of people like Nicoticket. I recommend first figuring out what flavours you like then trying different vendors. Such as Tabacoo, dessert, bakery, fruit, soda, ect... :) when I first started out I wanted dessert flavours so I tried a vendor I heard about named bulldog vapor that had a great chocolate vape that helped me quit. (Forgive me mods if I'm not allowed to name that vendor)

I like fruity flavors and just crazy stuff. Someone recommend vaperite and I like my options and they have organic stuff. What mix do I want? What's pg and vg or whatever? Thanks for all the help

I'd recommend getting the ChinaBox30, which looks remarkably like a Hana mod, and performs as well too. Add a Sony VTC5 and you are good to go. This will give you as little or as much vape clouds as you wish, and would take one a long ways before they would be able to max it out.

Battery wears out, replace it. Beauty of a dna30 like device, it can do casual and serious vape. Best vape for the buck right now, for the entry to intermediate and advanced level vapers. And can wrap it with some kewl scinz's

And the Doctor will be back next month.!!!:D




Vape long and Prosper.!!!


p.s. my fave juice vender was alien vapor, best premade juice I've ever vaped. Almost as good as my DIY mixes.
