New member :) open to suggestions on hardware!

xantivenxm - hi and a warm welcome to you from me too! You have already received some great advice, and I won't offer yet another alternative to confuse you.
My journey has been long and experimental - I started with a very simple clearomiser which you are already ahead of in terms of output and flavour, and I started with a 650mah battery which needed charging twice a day!
Any cheap 'box mod' will be eons better than my starting point, and the iStick 30W is a worthy purchase, and should last enough time for you to feel that you have got your money's worth from it.
As far as tanks go, there are so many choices now. If you really want to go down the sub-ohm route, be careful, but something like the Subtank , Atlantis or the Innokin iSub would be a good buy.
Keep us posted, and if you are in any doubt please ask here first before spending hard-earned cash!

Hello and welcome to the forum! It has been my one and only information source since I started for both hardware and mixing eliquid and it is awesome!

1) it's kanger - I guess I'm biased because I started with the evod, my tanks are kanger due to their great airflow control etc. Just feel happy with their brand
2) it looks pretty sharp lol
3) I can still use my aerotank mega with it if I don't go for the sub tank straight away - and at £50 it's not too bad!

Will keep reading and reading before spending!

I wasn't even aware of the subox before you posted it here but it looks amazing and love the black Subtank mini too!

Can deffo vouch for Kanger products too and the Subtank mini is a game changer imho - at least it has been for me. that and my MVP3.0.

Good luck trying not to go crazy. After two years on twists I now have or have en route, 2 MVPs, a Vamo, an Istick and an SMY60 box mod. Word of warning - don't look at the classifieds on here - it is too dangerous to the bank balance!

Hello and a very warm and hearty AAE-C xantivenxm to the forum of the future and the future is sadly one of poverty and ruin if you catch the dreaded SHINYITUS. This terrible affliction will leave you a broken wreck very quickly, moneyless, homeless and friendless, forever doomed to wander the back alleys and slum areas of our great metropolises in constant search of the NBVT (next big vaping thing). Dressed in torn and tattered, e-juice stained rags and accosting strangers with the plaintive mumbled cry of "gie's a couple a ton for the new bleedin' Provari mate, I have a terrible need". A sad but true vision of the future.



This warning is brought to you by the "Society of Shinyitus Sufferers" or "SOSS" . Remember our motto "Spread The SOSS"

to the money pit xantivenxm. You better book some overtime in if you are going to start shopping for vape gear. It's addictive. Good luck

[xantivenxm]

Yeeeaahhh I can see that...
Already a few things I want to get, liquids I want to try..

That's what we're doing isn't it, transferring our addiction to cigs over to vaping gear lol! It's cause of the money saved.. or not in this case haha

Regardless of how much you spend on Vaping gear it's still better for you than smoking and at £9 for 20 tabs you'll be going well to outspend your tobacco habit. If you break even you'll still be better off so get tore in and find yourself t,he perfect set up and vape on!

I have spent a fair bit on vaping, and I'm still spending more now. But I have kept all the reciepts for my spending sprees, and I'm still quids in!

Note to self: Must try spend harder

ETA It's more a hobby than an addiction........




















OK!!! It's an addiction!

xantivenxm welcome to theNext Big Spend.
I agree with the istick 30, or the 50 which is even better for battery life. I use the 50 whenever I'm out for a couple of hours and it does the job nicely.
Separate battery wise the Cloupor mini had a few worries but I think that's sorted now and I use mine every day, love 'em.

It's already happening.. after doing my I'm pre-ordering the subox mini, 2 samsung 25R's..
it says it can charge batteries and will switch off when they are done charging (also allows pass-through for vaping while charging) but I'm now looking into a proper intelligent charger, charging bag, and some boxes for liquid/battery storage..

I have to stop myself buying both colors >_<

xantivenxm, remember that the resale value of your gear exceeds what you'll get for a ashtray full of fag ends

I've been here for almost 2 months and have just broken even, mainly thanks to robby not being as active as normal for a couple of weeks! 5 battery devices, 7 atty's and a shelf full of ejuice, mixing gear and various bits of hardware

It's easier than that. Buy anything you want, however much you want, any price  is ok. The main is thing that you can't put a price on is your health. So anything you spend is a bonus, as long as it keeps you away from the poison.
