Despite the fact that I'm 18, my mother insisted I don't vape. It bothered her so much she snuck into my room, and took my MVP2, IgoW, and over $100 worth of juices. So, I need something new to vape on now. I want something of decent quality: at least equal to my previous MVP and rda, or better. I would be ok settling for a little less, if it saved a lot of money.

The issue is, I have little money to spend now. I wasn't planning on buying a whole new setup. My budget is $60. The less money I have to spend, the better.

So far, I've been looking at the eleaf Istick 30watt, and a vertex rda clone, which came to just about $60.

I'm open to every suggestion.

well the problem is, I have nothing now. My mother stole everything I had. And as far as what I'm looking for, either a cheap but fairly decent RDA (clones completely ok) or a good clearomizer (with airflow control preferably, but not necessary), and a cheap but powerful (20-30w) and somewhat long lasting vv/vw battery.

call the cops ..lol, how are you going to hide the new setup from her.
ya the istick 30w for the money is hard to beat, imo i would go for subtank mini, delta 2.
another is the egrip, its mo money but hopefully ur mom wont know what it is as it doesnt look like a normal vaping setup being an all in one device

Calling the cops is an option now that you're legally allowed to own and use vaping material. You're 18, you do what you want to your body. Is your mother one of those people who believe vaping is 10x worse than smoking? lol

I myself am 19 (been vaping for 5 months, smoked since I was 16) and I think my mother has no idea I vape (just as she did when I smoked, no idea how she never found out). I don't live with her full time, but I spend a lot of time with her and I never vape in front of her.

Anyhow, iStick 30w and any clone RDA you like (still new to RDAs, can't quite tell the difference between my Plume Veil and others beyond airflow and posts) if you're really into RDAs or get something like a Nautilus Mini.

She is indeed. She read one of those articles that says vaping is worse than ...........she started talking about "carbon monoxide" and "people dropping dead." I would move out but financially, I can't do that. So I'm stuck with hiding it for now. I never vaped in front of her, she found the juices on her own (by digging through my bag) and then always accused me of "my room smelling sweet." I don't have any other options so hiding it is.

Jesus.

Well, assuming you've tried to educate her on the subject, your situation is pretty hard. I guess the best argument you can give her is that ejuice is composed of 4 FDA-approved compounds that are known to be safe, and that cigarette smoke has over a thousand carcinogens + another couple thousand known toxic chemicals. Then let her rationalize by herself. This has worked on many friends of mine :D

When you work for a living and pay the bills you can do what you want in your own house. Call the cops? Are you serious? Is that what young people do nowdays when Mom or Dad do something you don't like? You may be eighteen but you are still under her roof. If she doesn't want you vaping than do it somewhere other than your bedroom in her house. It is called respect. Now get yourself what you can afford but please vape somewhere other than your parent's house. Better yet save some coin and get your own place.

Are you Asian? Cuz I am, and I find this funny because I could see my mom doing this. :rules:
