Help me find a starting kit for my dad

[mrdeltoid]

I've been vaping for a little over a year now and i've only used mechs with rba's for the past few months and so I have no idea what to buy for a new vaper. I'm pretty sure i would have a hard time selling my dad the idea of a fiddly rba on an unregulated device or even a clearo on a huge mod like the SVD or Vamo. I think the largest he would go for is an Ego type device with a matching clearo.

Any advice on what to get?

If it were me I would get something like this: http://www.myvaporstore.com/Vision_Spinner_Joye_Ego_C_Twist_Combo_p/vvs-c.htm

Two variable voltage batteries, two clearomizers, a charger and an A/C adapter all in one package. Pick up some spare replaceable coil heads and some juice and he'll be good to go.

That's probably not the best vendor for you but I'm sure there are several European vendors who sell similar kits.

 

[mrdeltoid]

Yeah i should have specified i live in europe allthough fasttech is fine. I would'nt mind the slowboat if the price is good.

You can't go wrong with the kit at MVS above. The 1300mah spinners last all day and you get a choice of clearos with top/bottom coils to see which you like best.

FT has a new twist showing at 1300mah but it looks just like the spinners. Will have one in my next order.

So a couple of spinners and clearos would be my best bet? Which clearo would be the most user friendly? Protank mini perhaps?

I would go with the iTaste V3. Its smaller than the ego's but is variable watt which is closer to "set & forget". It is also a pass-through so he would be able to vape and charge it at the same time if necessary:

Some like a warmer vape with the top coils but a lot prefer the protank with the bottom coils. Everyone has a preference, you'll just have to see what your dad likes best. I'm a long time smoker and I prefer top coils I find the bottom coils too airy for me.

That's a good suggestion as well (I have one and use it daily when out and about), but you would definitely want to get two of them if having to vape while plugged in will deter him from using it. It's only an 800mAh battery so keep that in mind.

The Spinner ego and clearomizer route would be my suggestion. If he has access to a computer, send him this link. It will have pictures of the devices and video demo's of both the battery and the juice delivery devices:

Start him of simple, get an Ego starter kit, you go throwing VV or VW at him and he'll give up.

Yeah i figured easy is better but seeing as he is technicaly savvy i think he could handle it.

Baditude: Thanks for the link. I'm definitely sending it forward to him.

I just wish they had that itaste 3.0 with more mah than 800. I tend to go through mine too soon. I like the kit but really there should be 2 batteries.

Another vote for the Innokin iTaste VV 3.0. It has VW so your dad can adjust the warmth of his vape with a pushbutton and not have to worry about doing any oHms math. It comes with iClear 16s, a twin top coil clearo. The iTaste VV 3.0 also has passthrough capability so your dad can charge the battery while he vapes.

You might want to aadd a mini Pro Tank for him to use with juices that crack plastic tanks. It is a bottom coil which will allow your dad to decide whether he prefers a warm top coil or a cooler bottom coil.

Fast Tech has the iTaste VV 3.0 kits for about half of retail and they also have a mini Pro Tank.
iTaste VW V3.0 7-in-1 Variable Voltage Rechargeable 800mAh Electronic Cigarettes Set - black
iTaste VW V3.0 7-in-1 Variable Voltage Rechargeable 800mAh Electronic Cigarettes Set - white
Kanger Mini Protank Clearomizer with Pyrex Glass Tank (1.5mL)

Todd gave the iTaste VV 3.0 a good review.

If you go with the spinners, he's gotta be careful with them as a lot of ppl say they break if you drop them a very short distance. The ego twists seem to hold up better against drops.

 

[klynnn]

I have 4 spinners and have had no problems in the last 8mos but my joye twists button sticks. If you have older eyes the spinners are easier to read also.

If he likes the "kiss" principle, then the CigEasy Elite or the Halo G6, both 808d-1 batteries (cig-a-likes). Start with cartos and clearos. If he like the hobby, then he can go crazy like the rest of us!

 

[Gernav]

I would make him try some Joyetech eRoll! Good vaping experience with style and discretion.

I bought one of these and it works real nice 2 batteries, tanks and charger Jet Black Triton Tank System Starter Kit

I am very satisfied with my Kanger Evod BCC starter kit. It comes with 2 cartridges, 7 atomizers, 2 batteries and a charger.
