New to Vaping!

[adreamersdaze]

Hello everyone!

My name is Leah and I'm pretty new to vaping. I bought a $15 ecig from the tobacco store a month or so back and it was great at first but now the flavor is dull.

I'd like to move up to better vaping so I need a few suggestions.

I'm looking for medium to big clouds but also want to maintain the flavor of the eliquid.

What mod should I purchase? Any specific piece?

Also, I would like to eventually wrap my own coils

Thanks!

Welcome to the Underground!! I would recommend you start with a Variable Watt device and a kanger aerotank mega. You can get good flavor and clouds are in the medium to large range when you use those. Coil building and mechanical mods are considered by many to be advanced, but start where you feel comfortable.
I love the Groove II by a company called SMOK, you can get one from MADVAPES.COM for under 40 dollars and you can get a KANGER MEGA tank from them as well for under 40 dollars, grab a couple replacement coils from them as well, then all you need is juice! You can get yourself going for around 100 dollars total, which is less than some of the other starter kits you can find out there. But that will cover you for a month and then you only need to buy replacement coils and juice!

Thanks so much Celtic!

This is VERY helpful.

That's all I really needed was a push towards the right direction.

Any suggestions on brands of juice?!

What is your price range for a complete set of gear?

As for E-Liquids I like this place.

There 5ml sample bottles actually have 6ml of product in them. And you can try a lot of different flavors reasonably priced before you order the big bottles.

I would suggest starting out with a 50/50 mix at 18 to 24mg of nic.

My suggestions for juice are Mount Baker Vapor (incredible prices and some great flavors), The Vapor Bars Forever e liquid (This company tested all of their juices and provide test results for us and their custard line is absolutely wonderful!) and Classified (an incredible flavor bunch!).

http://shop.vaperev.com/juice/classified.html (they have a few more flavors than these guys sell)

Can't go wrong with an MVP2 as a step up - and it comes with a tank already... not the best, but it will get you started.

 

[UncleRJ]

And the new Eleaf 20 watt is showing some real promise as well.

 

[adreamersdaze]

Price range $200-250 not including juice.

So taking all suggestions for pretty big clouds and great flavor!

Thank you for all the replies!

If you're willing to spend that much, I'd say get a few devices and decide which one you like most. You should be able to get a few box mods (and a few mechs if you're so inclined) with that kind of budget.

That is true! Then I could start me a nice little collection

I guess I have to really know what to buy first so I'm just taking specific suggestions then looking at my options.

hi leah, for juices i would suggest mushroom vapes and ITC vapes. very reasonable and yummy.

 

[adreamersdaze]

Thanks Kelli!


Vaporshark DNA 30- Is this too powerful? I love the clouds on this!

Thanks Kelli!

Coming from a $15 ecig? I would say yes. Not saying you can't handle it, but I suggest getting your feet wet first before jumping into the latest trend. You could easily get the most expensive, most cloud-producing, most powerful device available, but at the end of the day if you're not satisfied with it (or worse yet, don't know how to use it), then you would have just wasted both your time and money. You learn things along the way, and if you go straight to Calculus without going through Algebra, you wouldn't know what you would have learned in between. Does that make sense?

Oh, and welcome to The Underground, BTW!

if you have the $, i guess this is a nice mod. too pricey for me tho....i am still waiting to win one.

 

[VaporJoe]

Eleaf iStick for under 30 bucks ... Epic!

 

[VaporJoe]

.... and welcome to the Underground!

 

[VapedCrusader]

I second the Vaporshark rDNA since you can afford it.. If you decide you don't like it feel free to send it my way

Bahahah! Thanks for the advice

 

[VapedCrusader]

the Sigelei 100watt has been getting some really good reviews too.. and it would only cost you 100$ -(saw them available on ebay w/ free shipping) for that price you could get another mod and a bunch of tanks to go along with it..

 

[skocha361]

Personally, I think an eleaf i-stick and nautilus or aerotank (or minis) would be the perfect setup to start. That'd leave money for a mech and dripper, and give you time to read and learn about building/safety.

That'll give ya damn decent clouds while you prepare for the big leagues! And at least 60% vg for the clouds. Good luck.

I have to agree with skocha - it's easy to get carried away (I know I did) and end up with a pile of stuff that you don't need / use! Just throwing in my vote for JuicyVapor.com as a juice source. They and shopcoppercreek.com are my two mainstays! I try others but keep going back there. I did get "hooked" on Mother's Milk from suicide bunny but that's a "treat vape" for me as it's $22 a bottle!!!!

I can see that now!

I like what I've purchased so far

And I've heard great things about Mother's Milk!

 

[skocha361]

What'dya get? The rdna30?

 

[adreamersdaze]

I ended up getting the Groove II and Kanger Aero Mega.

It's prefect for what I'm looking for. Decent clouds, great taste and so far no issues at all

 

[skocha361]

Nice!
