What's the cheapest kit to get started on?

[vaperature]

With all that's out there, my head is spinning. I want to just start with a very minimal kit, just something I can plug into my computer to charge up, preferably that uses e-juice rather than disposable cartridges that I would have to continuously buy. I just want something to help me get familiar with the real thing (been using store bought disposables so far), without making a huge investment, as I continue to research what would be a good, top quality kit to invest in. Any advice would be appreciated. (Not asking about the juice; it seems easy enough to find juices.)

Visit some of the Forum suppliers for some good kits.

Discount Vapers - Evod kits
Reasonably priced very popular as start up kits and great as backups later if you move to APV's

Sorry. What's an APV?

That's $70. That might be something I'd invest in sooner or later, but isn't there something out there that functions for less, just to get a feel for it?

Hmm. Thanks. I'm going to bookmark that.

I'm looking at that page and am wondering what are the benefits of the different mAhs. I'm assuming the larger the mAh the more power it has, the better the vape?

 

[KjAthena]

larger mah= longer battery life

The first upgrade most have made is to buy a glass protank to the set ups...then it just blooms from there. Please be aware that Fast tech sells both original and knock offs ...it is a really good idea to know what version you are buying. IE Kanger Protank vs protank. Some of the knock offs perform well (others are garbage read reviews and suggestions on FT site and ask questions here)I strongly suggest purchasing coils/heads/and Mod Batteries here in the USA.

Right. Ok. I'll get the hang of this soon. Thanks!!

Here is one from FT has passthrough capability and variable voltage. Looks good to start with but may be 10/12 days with shipping.

Just googled variable voltage so I won't trouble you with it, lol.

I bought this kit for my friend who was just starting out, and one for me because it's a great deal
Here's a bonus, one of my friend's batteries wasn't holding a charge for very long, so she ecig best save. com. They sent out a replacement with a postage paid envelope to send the other one back. I Love these Kanger products.

Also, Fast Tech is having issues with customs and batteries being held up there. Not sure if they have caught on that eGo type devices are batteries but as KjAthena said, it's best to buy from the US until you get familiar with everything.

something I can plug into my computer to charge up

This is usually not endorsed. A lot of ecig chargers require more power than a computer USB port can provide and serious damage can ensue.

To me more helpful, I second the Discount Vapers kit using the Joye Twists and Evods.

Just moving off cig-a-likes something in the 650mah range will generally last a full day or more. For more seasoned vapers it may only kast 6hrs.
VV makes a nice experience difference allowing you to decide on Vape temperature rather than being restricted by coil resistance. I would suggest moving to 900mah or higher in a VV simply for reserve capacity. Higher output will reduce usable time.

ETA - with a decent charger and reliable PC - USB charging it not the terror some may think.
I build my own PC gear and i have used port charging for over a year without issues. It is not the same as demanding power for a pass-through setup.

Damage to what?

I'm getting psyched. Decisions decisions . . .

OK in one of the comments at the kanger site says:

My husband and I both switched to the Kanger eVod and are loving it. The battery life is great and it's been a whole week without needed a coil change.

Could someone please explain the "coil change". When I get a kit, does it come with extra coils, do I need to purchase extra coils, how does that work?
