1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    Hi everyone. It's great to see a vaping forum focused on Thailand! I'm on the lookout for a new kit, and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. I've been using an Ego-C ever since I started, but I'm getting fed up with it now and want to upgrade to something better.

    Also, any juice recommendations? All I can find locally here is Liqua, and I'm not too keen on it. I like a nice throat hit.

    Hey.

    I would probably fail miserably as far as a juice recommendation goes but for an upgrade kit.
    "iStick 30 and/or iStick 50"

    IStick 30 or 50 with a Kanger Mini. its all you will need for a long time. Wont stop you buying too much though, we all like shinny new things lol.
    **Updated**
    If you like small and are not afraid of Cloupor, this is nice. Cloupor Mini and Kanger Nano, I would say that though as Im selling one lol.

    Hi Mack, I replied to your PM again but I think I'll give the Cloupor a miss, just in case. It would probably be fine but I can't help but read all the stuff about them being fire hazards and stuff. Do you guys have a recommendation for a place to order something like an iStick here in Thailand?

    I don't know of anywhere with the 30 or 50 (don't bother with the 20) but they'll be along within a week or two I imagine.

    Yeah, you'll have to wait until China reopens and starts shipping again after the CNY celebrations...

    The iStick looks brilliant, but bad timing with CNY here because I really want one now! With the tanks, do I just want to buy one? How easy is it to buy and replace the wicks when they start to taste bad?

    Easy, just simply unscrew (this is the kanger you're talking about right?)

    The Kangertech Subtank Mini comes with a couple of coils (0.5/1.2) and an RBA deck which you might prefer dues to the reduced cost every time you need to change wicks.

    You've lost me a bit there, Rick. I'm not too sure what an RBA deck is! I was looking at this tank: Authentic Aspire Nautilus BVC Clearomizer and Authentic Aspire Nautilus Mini BVC Clearomizer Replacement Coil Head to go with it.

    Would that be all I'd need? The iStick, plus those two things I've linked? (and liquid, obviously!)

    EDIT: I'm not allowed to post links yet apparently, so I just copied and pasted the names.

    You'll want to buy some replacement BVC coils, too. Changing them is easy.

    Takes 5 posts...you're almost there.

    Yeah that'll work. I'd go with the Kanger Subtank personally due to it having better options.

    Apart from the Cloupor the next smallest box mod that is available is the SMOK m65.

    Or the VS rDNA 30...if Micky has any still available. A bit pricier but a great piece of kit that will last a long time (as long as you don't install the battery incorrectly ;)).

    I know someone who's selling an Innokin ITaste.
    Ha ha.
    Actually there are a few half decent mods in the classified section.
    If its sub- Ohm then the Subtank, then you probably will need to go for a higher output than 15 watts. I guess.

    I got my iStick 30W and an Aspire Nautilus from Micky yesterday. WOW is all I can say, it's like night and day compared to the old ego-C I was using before.
