What is the best vape starter kit? It’s a question that can be difficult to answer, especially with the sheer amount of kits currently available. In this blog we will explore some of the best cig a like alternatives which offer convenient usability for beginners and a satisfying nicotine hit.
What do you want from an e-cig?
Size, battery capacity and draw are all important elements of any device. Before you start looking at e-cigs you need to decide what you're after. Mouth to lung (MTL) kits are more like smoking a cigarette, where you drawn the vapour into your mouth before inhaling it. Whereas restricted direct lung (RDL) kits are a bit airier and you can get larger clouds from them.
