They normally range from \u00a37 &#8211; \u00a350 for a refillable e-cig or around \u00a36 per device if you go the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/disposable-vapes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">disposable<\/a> route. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Single use vapes like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/brands\/elf-bar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Elf Bar<\/a> 600 V2 or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/brands\/lost-mary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lost Mary<\/a> BM600 are great to begin your journey but are the most expensive way to vape. Each one contains around 600 puffs, so will last most users a day. If you&#8217;re buying a few to see if vaping is right for you, it&#8217;s not too bad. But, if you&#8217;re using them as a long term solution then it becomes quite costly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Starter kits range from simple devices to ones that are bigger and have more advanced features. At the lower end of the scale, we have options like the Eleaf IORE LITE 2. These use disposable pods, which are swapped out when the coil starts to burn. As there&#8217;s no messy swapping of atomisers, they&#8217;re a great choice for new vapers. But, pods generally cost more than just coils on their own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Starter kits for under \u00a315<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Eleaf IORE LITE 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/eleaf-iore-lite2-ecig-kit-swatches.jpg\" alt=\"eleaf iore lite2 ecig kit swatches\" class=\"wp-image-21390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/eleaf-iore-lite2-ecig-kit-swatches.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/eleaf-iore-lite2-ecig-kit-swatches-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/eleaf-iore-lite2-ecig-kit-swatches-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/eleaf-iore-lite2-ecig-kit-swatches-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/eleaf-iore-lite2-ecig-kit-swatches-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Battery<\/strong><\/td><td>490mAh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Resistance<\/strong><\/td><td>1.0ohm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Price<\/strong><\/td><td>\u00a39.99<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/eleaf-iore-lite-2-kit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shop the Eleaf IORE LITE 2<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Joyetech WideWick Air<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/widewick-air-swatches-1.jpg\" alt=\"widewick air swatches 1\" class=\"wp-image-21391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/widewick-air-swatches-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/widewick-air-swatches-1-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/widewick-air-swatches-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/widewick-air-swatches-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/widewick-air-swatches-1-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Battery<\/strong><\/td><td>800mAh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Resistance<\/strong><\/td><td>1.2ohm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Price<\/strong><\/td><td>\u00a39.99<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>VOOPOO Doric Q<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/voopoo-doric-q-kit-swatches.jpg\" alt=\"voopoo doric q kit swatches\" class=\"wp-image-21392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/voopoo-doric-q-kit-swatches.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/voopoo-doric-q-kit-swatches-360x360.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/voopoo-doric-q-kit-swatches-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/voopoo-doric-q-kit-swatches-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theelectroniccigarette.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/voopoo-doric-q-kit-swatches-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Battery<\/strong><\/td><td>800mAh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Resistance<\/strong><\/td><td>1.0ohm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Price<\/strong><\/td><td>\u00a36.99<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Coils &amp;

It&#8217;s available in 30 extreme flavours and a variety of strengths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The VLTZ bar is a disposable that&#8217;s extremely easy to use. All you have to do is remove it from the packaging and remove the bungs. Although it&#8217;s the easiest way to vape, it&#8217;s not the cheapest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The VLTZ flex is the next step up. It features a rechargeable battery and uses pre filled pods. This allows you to quickly change flavours on the go. Each pre filled pod contains 2ml of e-liquid, which is the same as a disposable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The VLTZ re:fuel adds even better value for money. The re:fuel is a disposable that you can recharge and fill with e-liquid.  It can use at least 2 bottles before it needs to be replaced, meaning that you get the value of 10 disposables. It comes with a bottle of VLTZ e-liquid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, VLTZ e-liquid has the best value. It can be used with most MTL and RDL kits. Also, it has the most variety of nicotine strengths. It&#8217;s available in 0%, 0.6%, 1.0% and 1.6% in all 30 flavours.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s the cost to start vaping!
