Skold, if you're talking to me I started with a Kanger mini protank 2 and some pencil batteries. I bought a few bigger Tangers, a Protank and a Mega but they smoked to hot and harsh for me. I've bought some Eleaf Istick 20 and 30W mods and went back to the Mini Protank 2. I'm using 2 outfits at the same time because of heat build up when I only use 1. I have some Eleaf Isticks "in stock" and a couple of Mini Protanks also as back up. I usually refill the small tanks on the 2 Minis twice per day each.
I have a Curve 20w which is exactly the Same as istick 20w, just a different name and an istick Mini 10w. I use nautilus minis on both of them. Although i have high watt mods i still use my Curve an istick.
Handy for on the go too.
Hope your happy with your isticks, they are good for beginners and advanced. Cant really go wrong

Cool
It's ok. No circuit board, so less to fiddle with there... but you have to tailor your build to the battery. If you build for 4v you'll notice drop off when your batter hits about 3.8. Build for 3.6v and your .... burns up with a new battery lol
My regulated mods give me a consistent vape from 4.2v-3.6v (plus or minus depending on the mod and the wattage setting)
I love my REO, but usually have a regulated mod on me too

High end stuff was around, it always has been, it was just very hard to get and produced in a much smaller scale, sometimes by hand... we had to wait on lists on vw & the pit, f5 on crap websites, etc.
A lot of us were forced to buy high end back then bc it was the only way to get a decent vape. Personally I never fully quit till I got my first line atty on VW & my first mech mod was a GG slim that I got secondhand, don't ask, I'm too ashamed to say what I paid for.
but now that you can buy Chinese atty's that are as good or sometimes better than the high end stuff, it opens 's vaping up to more people, specifically those who don't have the money/time for stalking a $200 robot dingus.
Personally I always found it annoying, now I just think it's silly, but back then there wasn't much of a choice if you wanted a decent vape. Happily paying $450 for a caravela after waiting on a list for 2 years seemed perfectly sane to me at the time.

Your right it has and I shouldn't have said "it wasn't around " but nothing like it is now. I did buy some hi end stuff then, like the v1 penelope and bought a Caravela from the first list, and one of my first gennys was a DID, but now it's crazy. But even back then, I bought those not because I couldn't find a great vape for less, I bought them because I just liked the designs and wanted to support those designs so more could.

It's awesome that you are cancer free and have made the switch. As long as your not smoking and inhaling those bad chemicals your body is much better off. As for the nic, yes it's addictive but nowhere near as bad for you as all those other chemicals

While at a follow up visit with the lung surgeon he discovered an aneurysm in my aortic artery which he said was aggravated by smoking. Resulting in another surgery in less than 2 months. 60 years of smoking tobacco almost proved fatal.
I hate to be a nagger but when friends light up around me I tell them "those things will kill you"

I don't bother anymore, a bunch of my friends still smoke and I have helped a few of them switch if they ask for help, but for the ones who are determined to keep smoking, it's pointless. They can figure it out on their own when they're ready.
Like my cousin at first, I tried giving him gear, making him plenty of juice so he'd not have to pay etc. but they always come up with some bs excuse like, "this stuff has antifreeze in it", or "I don't like carrying around a giant mod" (which btw is the same size as a pack/lighter).
For him, it was me moving in to help with the mortgage, before I did he promised to only smoke outside, except it got real cold right after that.

My first mod that got me off smoking was a SMOK R80 with the TFV4 Micro tank. Threw the cigarettes away the same day i got it and haven´t looked back since.
I was not a fan of the Melo tank. I'd use it as a backup but not something I'd reach for out of choice. It's not terrible it's just not great either.
