Help for a beginner in New Zealand

[Jamperdax]

Hey everyone this forum has been super helpful i now know coming from Cigarettes that i want a Mouth to lung setup and being a heavy smoker I am going to be getting 18mg E juice. But im really stuck on which device would be best for me. Im stuck between this one PockeX Kit
and X30 Rover Kit

The guy on this sites chat recomended the x30 rover kit but it is more expensive any help or other suggestions would be great

Hi @Jamperdax where are you in NZ?

 

[Jamperdax]

Hi @G-Fog Im in Wellington

 

[G-Fog]

Pity, we could have met up for some discussion on kit.
I'm in North Canterbury.

 

[Jamperdax]

Any recommendations for a newbie? I think im going to go with one of the setups from my first post

 

[G-Fog]

@Jamperdax it looks like the pockex is sub ohm so Of the two I would suggest the rover would be a better bet as it would suit mtl better

 

[Jamperdax]

Awesome thanks @G-Fog. Really appreciate the help

 

[G-Fog]

If you want Aspire my suggestion is the nautilus mini or the Triton mini, which are pretty much the defacto starting point for mtl

 

[G-Fog]

And pretty easy to get on with.

 

[Jamperdax]

OK great i will look into those as well

My son just bought the nautilus X with the coolfire iv fwiw @Jamperdax

 

[Jamperdax]

Yeah i was looking at the on the NZ Ecig Store site before i really like the look of the coolfire. I might just do that i shall reply here and let you know how i go tomorrow

@Jamperdax I use the vaping kiwi a lot, have a look at them too.

I had a right go at someone for buying the Rover kit the other day (UK - way too expensive, unproven) and we have had TWO threads about non-functioning Pockex.
It's got to be said, my lack of love for Aspire (in the UK) is quite serious.
Those coils are too expensive like every other item in the Aspire catalogue. Their factory coil tanks are completely stupid money.
Maybe the rest of the world doesn't have this problem, but I'm sick of it.
They are in cahoots with the rip-off shops, see themselves as 'above' Joyetech and Kanger and quite frankly the entire reputation is built on one or two successful products.
I'm not falling for it; they are pushing for $15+ coils (5) like all the rest.
and the kits are about 30% more than everybody else for no reason other than they 'can'...
(Depression alert...)
(apologies...)

@djsvapour I get the feeling you don't like Aspire
TBH if anything can help someone get off the stinkies it's worth the money IMHO

 

[medleypat]

I think the problem is UK prices are about average to a little cheaper in the US

 

[batteredwombat]

I would take heed of djs post as he has reviewed a lot of stuff. I have never really owned a starter kit before but research and reviews is key to finding a vape you might like.

@Jamperdax - IMO, the Innokin Coolfire IV is an excellent mod. I liked my first 1 so well that I ordered 3 more while they're still available to put in my vape stash. It fits/feels great in my hand (I'm a female, too), is VV/VW, easy to charge & pretty fast, and is passthrough capable...meaning you can vape while it's recharging. Innokin also has an excellent reputation. I use mine with any/all of these on it and it does very well - Nautilus Mini, Innokin 16D clearomizers, Protank 2 and 3 Minis, TopTank Nano, TopTank Mini, and a Kayfun Lite Plus.

Just a price note about Aspire coil heads for the Nautilus and Nautilus Mini (which is what I use): I get mine from Fasttech -- Authentic* BVC Clearomizer Replacement Coil Head (5-Pack) and order five packs at a time for additional discount, so the price at the moment comes to $6.97 (in US dollars) per pack of five -- or about $1.40 per coil head. Free shipping, though shipping takes a while -- maybe faster to NZ. That's versus 3.50€ per single coil head locally.

Important: Aspire doesn't allow buying with PayPal, and since that's all I use on Fasttech and similar sites, I figure out my total on any Aspire purchase, and buy myself a gift certificate from Fasttech [link] and use the gift certificate to buy the coil heads (or whatever Aspire product). It's actually pretty non-painful, hardly takes longer than making my regular orders. The only thing is that gift certificates come in preset amounts, $10, $20 etc. But whatever extra is left over, you can apply toward another purchase. So if you bought 4 packs of five, the price per pack would be $7.16, for a total of $28.64, and you could buy a $30 gift certificate, and apply left over $1.36 on a future buy.

I'm only buying RTAs at this point, against the future possibility of being unable to buy premade coils at a reasonable price because of any EU regulations that might come down, but I'll keep using my Nautilus Minis until such a time comes. They're just really great, easy, reliable, no-fuss mouth to lung tanks.

* be sure to get "authentic"

I get the whole buy authentic thing but sometimes the clone is better. There are time when a clone fixes issues on the original and turns out to be a much better piece of equipment. Tobecco makes great clones I have a goon RDA that is awesome. I just ordered a lost vape clone of the goon last night.
