Can anyone recommend a simple mod where the variations and controls aren't too convoluted? I've done research but I don't think I'm ready to fiddle with so many settings and be confident that I'm not messing up something on the device. Not just yet anyway. I'm not interested in building coils either. And please, no more smok. Lol

Most pod mods have no adjustment at all. Generally that’s the problem. Some times you can’t even pick nic levels and there are only a few flavors. You want a zero options pod mod then?
Can you give me an example of an “overly convoluted” pod mod?

I’m confused too, about too many settings. I wonder if you actually mean pod or mod? Because as @bombastinator said, I’m not aware of many pods that are anymore complicated than ‘fire button’ and there are a couple that don’t even have that.
What devices have you tried or looked at and what features do you not want?
Please reply @ShrubOhm and give us more info so we can help you.

I have got a pod that I won from a contest here. This is it and where it came from.

Very simple, only one button. Refillable, with replaceable coil heads, and adjustable air flow. The only thing I didn't like at first was the 1 ohm coil that is available for it. Bit too hot for me, but I've changed my vaping style for that particular device. I just take smaller, shorter, but faster, tokes. Overall, I'm pretty satisfied with this device. I don't use it exclusively, but it's always close by!

There are a couple I’m aware of. The Orion comes to mind. It’s got a whole 3 settings and two coil choices. The most dumbed down vapes I know of are disposables. One piece, no options at all. Put it in your mouth and suck it till it dies. If it’s not the vape you wanted that’s too damn bad. Oh, and in the long run they’re reeeeally expensive.
Because if you're MTL style, Smoant Battlestar Mini comes to mind.
But it's a single 18650 battery mod that's well made, is relatively simple and is cheap. Then couple it with something like the Innokin Zenith tank.

Welcome 
Yep I agree with @Letitia you actually need a simple to use mod or pen device. A tank with drop in coils and you will be away...
The suggestions above are good or something like the Geekvape flint kit...it has three power adjustments and you can get different coils which will also help taylor you experience. Here's a link...

If not something like an iStick, a few mods give you a few preset power levels. Innokin has one, Aspire is about to release one. The Geekvape Flint is another.
But iSticks are very easy to use.

Some that I have used:
- Kanger Evod Kit
- SMOK Nord
- Boulder Rock
- Juul
- Wismec MyJet
- Joyetech Exceed Edge
- Suorin Drop
- Suorin Air
- Aspire Nautilus AIO
None of which has any adjustment to fiddle with.

That one looks pretty complicated. It’s got TC AND custom curves
$26.91 Authentic Smoant Battlestar Mini 80W TC VW APV Box Mod - 1-80W / 100-300'C(200-600'F) / 1*18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
There used to be a kanger that was VW only. Didn’t even have a screen. Just a series of lights in 5w increments and an up/down button. Had other problems though so it died iirc.
The secret to overly complicated options is to just ignore most of them.
If you don't mind minor adjustments, the Vandy Vape AP kit gives a very good MTL vape. It has five output power settings (voltage, I believe) that are very easy to select via two buttons. To me, that's a good thing and simple to use.
Most mods are very simple to run if you just keep them in power/wattage mode. Set watts and vape. I would advise you look for hand feel and battery life rather than settings.
No need to worry about complexity with Smoant Battlestar Mini @bombastinator, most users will use wattage mode. Menu system is basic compared to lots of other mods.
Even set my Ma up with one and a Vaporesso Drizzle MTL tank, and she's not tech savvy.

I'm still using my istick, but I did see this pod kit advertised in a contest from Heavens gifts https://www.heavengifts.com/product/Desire-More-Pro-Kit.html

According to their website it's on pre-order for $19.80 and has a 1000mah battery. That has been my only complaint about pods is the battery life. Though they are in China, my experience with them has been very good. I'm tempted to go ahead and place an order for several and give them a try.

I see the old iStick 30w has had a couple of honourable mentions already; they really are easy to charge and to use - I've had then for three years and they are only just beginning to die. I'd still recommend them, and being honest though I have Picos, when I get back to the UK I will stock up with a few more iSticks.
The Kanger device without a screen was the K Box - I've a couple of them, which along with the iSticks have given great service and have never even hicuppied with me. Sadly they are out of production now and though I did try to source some earlier in the year I couldn't find a UK supplier with any left.

Vladdin RE. There's absolutely no customization except the juice you fill it with. Does a good job delivering MTL satisfaction with draw-activated firing. For best results use 30-50mg salt nic.
Be careful about leaks though. Some pods will leak, and doing so can mess up the vacuum switch. There were some posts on the Vladdin forum giving suggestions on how to keep that from happening. I got a dead one I lightheartedly hope to take apart and find out exactly why.
