question about disposables

Status
Not open for further replies.
First off, I want to thank everyone here for helping me to get started vaping. This site is an invaluable resource and I have lurked here for a month or two before deciding to get my own starter kit. I love it and I am never going back!

Now to my question... I work at a bar and my customers and co-workers are all insanely curious about vaping, but not quite curious enough to drop 30 bucks on a kit. I would like to stock the bar with a good disposable option... what brands are good and where can i get bulk rates? I need to get the cost down so I can make a dollar or two per unit or my boss won't let me order them.

Thanks!

I bought an 8-pack of "disposable" 510's from Madvapes.com

As far as I can tell, they are only "disposable" because they aren't true Joye's and are only guaranteed for 3 recharges. However, they come in a decent analog pack size box and are a fantastic way to introduce people to vaping without a huge investment. I've been giving them away as Christmas gifts: 8 for $68 and I'm Saint Nic. ;)

Fast shipping and good customer service too: I'd ordered an 8pack of menthol because that was all that was in stock, but Mark held my order for a day and gave me a mix of menthol and "western" (aka MLB)

How is the atty on this thing?

See this: if you haven't already:

YouTube - Madvapes 510 Disposable Kit

It looks like a regular 510 atty and he says it works on regular 510. The battery charger is proprietary - ie if you bought a manual batt (and an atty) along with it to '"complete" a kit, you'd need a regular charger.

I'm impressed and bought a 5 pack for travelling, emergency... Probably throw one in the glove compartment even though the Bartleby looks like a fixed appendage these days :)

Check this disposable too:

Starter Kits - *NEW* M9 - Disposable E-cig - Electronic Cigarette | Electronic Cigarettes | E-Cigarettes | E-Cigs from Smoore

Seems very affordable to me. You can perhaps get a better price by ordering in bulk. Shipping is $15 no matter how many you purchase anyway. Shoot them an email for wholesale prices or some rebranding work. You could get them to print a company logo on the ecig to please your boss.

I got one of these for $6.70 from heaven gifts during their free shipping deal. It's a 401 and the vapor is weak - better than a supermini but not a 901. Good for puffin' though. And the flavor was good - ry4.

I like your logo idea :) That might sell him.

I actually have not tried this disposable model yet. However, if it is an M401, i fail to understand how vapor might be weaker than a 901. The M401 outperforms the 901 in every department in my books. Of course, having been at the forums for this long, i understand that individual experiences might differ.

Perhaps it's in the disposable aspect. But that was my take on it. It took a bit to get started which is reasonable and after that it was ok but the vapor production wasn't great. I have a 901 on an adapter with the 510 batt and it did better than I expected it to do actually. I was planning on trying a 401 regular. Might just get the atty to start. And yeah, on the individual experiences difference - these are in terms of my experience only. Well, some are regarding the wife's, but she didn't try the disposable.

Is it me or is it the disposable ecig? I have tried a lot of dis. e cigs and tbh its not as good as the real ecig. It does not taste as good and its very wasteful...cant see myself throwing out the hunk of metal every time im done with it!

Again, just talking from my experience with the M9 but the flavor was rather good. I certainly wouldn't give up any ecig I have for it but like has been mentioned - for travel or throwing on in the glove box, I can see that.

Let me say this about the madvapes "disposable" 510. I ordered 5 to start and about 3 weeks in, 3 of 5 batteries are still going and all 5 attys are going. They are a very respectable 510 automatic clone and are hardly "disposable" One battery that went took the stated 3 charges and died... One battery was flooded out by my ex and that was not the battery's fault, 3 of the other batteries are well over 30 maybe a couple closer to 50 charges by now. They vape like a 510. Almost indistinguishable in performance. They are auto batteries so dripping is a little dangerous. I just got 8 more and plan on keeping these around. I am thoroughly impressed with them and madvapes.com which has tons of mod stuff. The friend I gave 2 of them to stopped smoking and exclusively uses them and loves them. I make no distinction between them and my Joye models other than auto vs manual.
They come packaged like a pack of cigs with a very respectable and cool looking box. If you can sell these for anywhere near 20 at the bar go for it. They work and perform more than respectably in my opinion.

Arvidx Your probably one of the people that I had caught talking about these awhile ago. I bought 2 for gifts and plan on getting more after the holidays.

We should probably mention that the box does state: The Battery is At least 3 times rechargeable. Are there 2 carts in the box? It's not listed on the box, but I think their suppose to be there??

Also madvapes has a "how to" section and you can make your own nicostick 900mahs
