Which Vape Kits are best for beginners?

There are many reasons to make the transition from traditional cigarettes to vaping. The NHS website talks about how thousands of people in the UK have already stopped smoking through e-cigarettes. Perhaps you want to make the switch but don’t know where to start. Here at the Vape House, we can help you choose the best e-cigarette or beginner vape kit.

Our range includes pen-style kits, disposable vape kits and pod kits. If you are unsure what is best for you, give us a ring or drop into one of our stores in Caerphilly. You might also like to read our recent article about Choosing your first vape kit. Most people starting as a new vaper go for mouth-to-lung kits because it replicates the feeling of smoking a cigarette. Newbies also tend to prefer the simplicity of pen-style vape kits or pod-style kits.

Best Vape Starter Kits

But it’s important to understand that everyone is different, so there is no ‘best vape kit’ as such; it’s just a matter of finding the best one for you.

Here are a few examples of the best beginner vape kits we have on offer:

INNOKIN GO S PEN STARTER KIT

 The sleek and straightforward Innokin GO S vape kit is a low-maintenance kit that is ideal for vaping newbies.

ASPIRE POCKEX AIO STARTER KIT

 The Aspire Pockex Aio starter kit is an excellent option for anyone new to vaping because it is so easy to set up and use.

VAPORESSO XROS POD KIT

This Vaporesso Xros pod kit is extremely discreet and slimline. It’s the perfect pod kit for portable use and great for starting your vaping journey.

What are the main types of vape kits?

The main types of vape kits are pens, disposable vape kits, box mod vape kits and sub-ohm vape kits. With so many,  it’s easy to get confused! Here’s a short guide to the different vape kits you can buy.

Vape Kits

When electronic cigarettes first came to the market, they had a very low-power battery and a basic (often disposable) tank. You will be pleased to know that the technology has come a long way since then, and there are many sleek digital vape kits available.

The draw is the main thing you need to decide on before choosing your vape kit. This is decided by the amount of air that passes through the Tank and the Coil. A mouth-to-lung draw lets less air through and replicates the feeling of smoking a cigarette. For this reason, most starter kits are mouth-to-lung such as pens. The second type of Draw is called direct to lung, which means that a large amount of air is let through the tank producing more ‘cloud’.

Pens

Vape pens are commonly known as e-cigarettes. Users of vape pen style kits like them because they are so simple and easy to use. The starter kits are made up of a rechargeable battery that you charge through a simple USB wire and a Vape Tank. Maintenance is straightforward. Here are four top tips for keeping your vape pen working smoothly…

• Keep your vape device charged.
• Keep your Tank filled with your favourite E-liquid
• Change your Vape coil when needed.
• You can learn more about coils in our beginner's guide to vape kits.

One of our best-selling vape pen kits is the Innokin T20-S Pen vaping starter kit. At just £23.99, it’s ideal for vapers looking for a bit more power from their e-cigarette. It delivers smooth vapour and will last a whole day on one single charge.

Pod Vape Kits

Vape Pod kits are so-called because of the plastic pod you insert into them. When pod-style kits were first introduced, the pods were pre-filled with e-liquid and usually disposable. However, pre-filled disposable pods work out more expensive. It’s cheaper and simpler to use a pod kit that you can refill with e-liquid yourself.

Pod Kits have advanced since they were first released, and now you can even get a sub-ohm pod kit (more about sub-ohm later!) with larger batteries, digital screens and control through adjustable power. People like pod kits because they are easy to use and conveniently portable.

A popular option if you are looking for a Vape Pod kit is the SMOK IPX80 Pod kit. It is a hard-wearing and robust device that is designed to last as long as possible. Waterproof, rustproof and shockproof, this pod kit is as durable as they come! It is a popular option because it is so easy to use, and the adjustable settings make it suitable for both mouth-to-lung and direct-to-lung vaping. The kit comes with the mod, a pod atomizer, two RPM coils and a USB cable.

Box Mod Vape Kits

The box mod vape kit is so-called because it usually has a battery that resembles a box. These kits are popular with people who have been vaping for some time. They prefer this type of kit because it often gives you more control. Box mod kits are comfortable to hold and usually come with a vape tank that matches the kit perfectly.

A Box Mod Vape Kit has a built-in battery that would have a larger capacity than most vape pens, or they can be compatible with removable rechargeable batteries.

There are several advantages of using a box mod kit:

• Larger capacity batteries, meaning more time between charges
• Digital screens to see your settings and usage
• Adjustable power, meaning you can dial in the vape experience to your personal preference.

A popular choice for box mod kit users is the Innokin Coolfire Z50 Zlide kit. It is a compact and stylish box mod vape kit with a simple setup that makes it great for newbies. The slide tank is easy to top up and mess-free.

Disposable Vapes

Disposable vapes are pre-filled with e-liquid, and the battery is pre-charged and ready for use. Disposable vapes can be handy for a night out or for those who want to try vaping without buying a complete kit. However, it can be an expensive way to vape compared to using e-cigarettes or a box mod-style kit.

We highly recommend the QIS Disposable vapes. They are compact and simple-to-use draw-activated pod-style vaping devices. Each bar will provide enough e-liquid and battery life for 20 e-cigarettes. Some of the popular flavours are pink lemonade, mango ice and spearmint.

Sub Ohm Vape Kits

Sub Ohm Vaping is all about high power. We sometimes refer to sub-ohm vape kits as sub-tanks. They are preferred by long-term vapers rather than newbies because sub-ohm vape kits offer a direct-to-lung vaping experience. This means they let more air through the coil and produce a bigger cloud. If you’ve ever walked past someone who is vaping and surrounded by a massive cloud, then they are probably using a sub-ohm kit!

If you are going for a sub-ohm vape kit, you should probably get a high-VG liquid. This means that rather than choosing a 50/50 PG/VG ratio, you might choose a 30/70. These thicker High VG Shortfill E-liquids are the perfect consistency for your Sub Ohm Kit, and the extra thickness of the liquid helps create more vapour.

Looking for an excellent sub-ohm kit recommendation? Why not go for the Vaporesso Gen Nano Sub Ohm kit for £47.99? It is a popular choice because it allows vapers to get a degree of control that you just don’t get with other kits. It comes with a Vaporesso Gen Nano 80W vape device, 2ml GTX 22 tank, two GTX Mesh Coils and a USB charging cable.

What is included in a vape kit?

If you have chosen to buy a Vape Starter Kit from our online store, your kit will include your Vape tank or Vape pod, a replacement vape coil or pod, the vape battery or vape box mod, and a USB charging wire. The only thing you will then need is your E-liquid.

Which e-liquid should I choose?

E-liquids come in many different flavours, and it’s fun trying them out to see what you prefer - whether it’s tooty fruity or menthol fresh. However, we do need to make sure that we choose the correct E-liquid for the Vape Kit we are using. Generally, those starting with a starter vape kit will go for a 50/50 e-liquid. 

We recommend 10ml E-liquid for Vape starter Kits or Nicotine Salts for Pod vape kits. They are the perfect consistency for the coil in your vape tank, and your kit will run more efficiently. If you would like to know more about choosing the correct e-liquid for you, then hop over to our recent article - ‘What is an e-liquid? The complete guide'.

Some popular e-liquid brands include Zeus Juice, Dinner Lady and Decadent vapours. We stock all of these and more. If you want to read more about the best brands of e-liquids, check out our blog.

Setting up your Vape Kit

We recommend that when you receive your new kit and fill it with E-liquid, Leave it to rest without vaping it for 10-15 minutes. And then, before you turn the device on give it 4 or 5 puffs without pressing the fire button; this will ensure that the vape coil in your new device is fully saturated with e-liquid and primed, ready for you to use.

Hopefully, you will now feel more educated on the different types of vape kits and vape starter kits that are on offer, and you will now find it easier to make your choice.

Remember that our friendly staff at the vape house are all ex-smokers and vapers, so if you are unsure what kind of kit you need or how to set it up, just give us a ring or pop into our store. We will be happy to help with all of your vaping needs.

So come along….and get your vape on!
