Lost my way.

[lindsay]

Not a new vaper or forum member but might as well be!
I've been plodding along happily for years with my generic 510 batteries, dual coil tank with pre punched cartomisers, using a TW mega charger! it's been about four years since I bothered changing anything.
My charger is done, TW no longer sell them so it seemed like a good time to move on.
I have absolutely no idea where to start! I need serious help! I no longer understand anything!

Can anyone give me any tips on where to go from here?
A decent reliable kit maybe to get me re-started?


Many thanks from a dinosaur

How's about something like

Innokin Endura T18 or T22.

I'm getting the T22 (I think)... much will depend (for you) on the resistance of the available coils. They are designed to vape at 14 watts which is possibly twice as powerful as you might have been used to.

You could however put something like the 'old' iClear30S on it with a 2.1ohm coil instead. OR a mini Nautilus with a 1.8ohm coil would drop you back to under 10 watts.

Ideally, a variable power battery would solve those problems. (if a set watt device is a problem).

Hi and welcome to forum (again)
Yes there's tons of new gear on the market and at very reasonable cost so there's no immediate need to spend a fortune!

But there is so much choice, although many recent tanks/atomisers are very airey you can still replicate the style of vaping you are used to .... but it's probably fun to try new vape stuff!

I won't link specifics as i'm on phone but I'm sure many members will help

If you're happy with your tank then maybe just grab something like a 30w istick to put it on.

Charges via usb and not very expensive.

An idea of what you fancy, tube, box, built in battery, large, small, stock coil only, rebuildable etc. and an idea of budget will help the folks here to help you lindsay. Loads of great kit available at the moment.

[lindsay]

Thanks for the replies.
Might help if I give a little more info.
Size is important, really don't want anything too big, as for charging, do I really have to charge one battery at a time? or have various gadgets charging round the house?
I really hate dry spots, getting that horrible burnt taste, so something that avoids this would be good.
The mini nautilus looks good, but with what battery?
(Forgive me if I'm talking pants but I can't believe how far behind I've gotten with this stuff! remember when the TW Screwdriver was vape heaven lol)

[lindsay]

As for budget, cheap as possible, I would be perfectly happy as I am but I can't charge one battery at a time, certainly not when they only give me around four hours, also finding it harder to find such outdated carts and tanks.

An istick 30w and mini nautilus sounds like a good match i vaped with kanger protanks which were more prone to spitting and leaking than dry hits but the nautilus has a better rep, also the gs air might be worth a look see too?

Its probably a lot cheaper from FT or GB
£7-8 saving but a bit longer delivery time..
www.fasttech.com/product/2082304-authentic-eleaf-istick-30w-2200mah-variable

iirc the istick is 'pass through' which means you can vape with it plugged in and charging,
So if you can plug it into a puter @ work, or in the lighter socket if you have a long drive you shouldnt have any battery life issues..

gs air

[Perpetua]

EVS also have the iStick 30w available in Black lindsay as well as the Nautilus:

vapourandecig.co.uk/products/30w-eleaf-istick-full-kit-w-o-wall-adaptor

vapourandecig.co.uk/products/anyvape-peakomizer

Plus there's a forum discount code: AAEC10TY for 10% off . . . . and you'd have the advantage of purchasing from a well respected Vendor, if you didn't want to wait on overseas shipping.

[DiscoDes]

Eleaf Istick Basic kit includes the GS Air Atomiser here : www.ukecigcabin.com/product/istick_basic

There should also be a discount code on the forum somewhere, hopefully someone will come along with it.

The beauty of this kit is that it comes with everything you need, replacement coils are cheap, it has a battery that should easily last all day just plug it in to a USB socket to charge, no complicated controls just press the button and go. Comes in lots of colours even pink!

UK based vendor so it should come really quick and the whole lots costs around £30.

The only thing you may have to get used to is the form factor, it's not big (I can conceal one in my hand) but it is a different shape to what you had before. However I am sure you will get used to it quickly.

[lindsay]

Thank you all, the Istick looks good but a little too bulky, I work in a shop and don't drive so charging on the go would be a problem for me.
I'm leaning towards the Innokin Endura T18 (thanks djs) It looks nice and not too scary! I was thinking two and a pack of replacement coils would do the job? A couple more dumb questions though! Can I covert the T18 to mains, do I just use one of those mains adapter thingies like for phones (sorry, told you it was dumb) also I vape aniseed 24mg, would the tank on these be up to the task?

Pepperty - an airier vape sounds good, don't even like to think about the wrinkles I must be getting sucking away on my current set up!

[lindsay]

Oh, not so big after all? decisions, decisions! (sorry still typing when the last few replies came in )

[joeten]

Another vote for the Istick and the Nautilus if you prefer the tighter draw.

It certainly isn't . . . . quite neat in fact lindsay, if you did choose to go for the kit Des has linked to - then AAEC is Sadie's discount code for 5% off.

lindsay I was in the same position you're in right now a week ago, things have changed a lot. It's been a couple of years since I was last active on AAEC and decided on the easy route of just asking what the hell do I do now. I am really impressed with the mod @windows sold me a few days back and am just waiting on some Ti wire to use it effectively. Have fun
