What vape should I buy for beginners?
Here at VAPO, we offer plenty of high quality and easy to use beginner devices that will suit the needs of anyone looking to give up smoking once and for all..
The first style of devices we recommend that have a proven track record of helping smokers transition is a closed pod vape such as the alt. Pod Kit or the HAIZ Pod Kit. Closed pod systems are extremely easy to use and the most successful way to transition from cigarettes to vaping. The alt. and HAIZ products provide ex-smokers with a similar satisfaction from smoking but without all the thousands of harmful carcinogens within a cigarette. The devices both consist of a battery and a pod (filled with e-liquid), and that’s it! Simply insert the pod inside the battery and puff away – no batteries, no mess, this makes it the ideal and the very first option to consider when purchasing a first vape.

The second style of vaping devices we recommend is a pen-style starter kit such as the Alpha Starter Pen. Vape pens also simulate a cigarette with a mouth-to-lung draw and gives ex-smokers a similar feeling as when they draw from a cigarette. The Alpha is also refillable which means you’re able to fill it with any juice flavour of your choice and allows you to dictate the nicotine level in your vape. The Alpha Vape Pen also has replaceable coils, unlike closed pod systems, so that means you can keep your tank and replace only the coil. This device is ideal for people who want a classic mouth-to-lung draw and be able to control what flavour and nicotine strength they prefer to kick their cigarette habit!
The next vape we recommend for beginners is the Flow Vape Kit – this is for someone who is looking to get more intense flavour and big clouds. This simple one-button device makes it ideal for someone who wants a portable kit that provides a fantastic direct-lung draw and amazing flavour production.
How do I choose the right coil for my vape?
A coil is the piece responsible for heating up the e-liquid and vapourising it. A coil is a fairly simple mechanism. It’s constructed from a coiled wire which is surrounded by cotton.
There are plenty of coils that VAPO offers which will suit the needs of all customers! Every tank is different which means different tanks use different coils but most manufacturers generally follow the same rules.
The tank that you are using requires you to select coils that are designed specifically for that tank which means that there are no universal coils that fit every tank. The manufacturer for your tank will generally provide more than one option of coils that have different resistances which is an electrical measurement and is measured in ohms. In simple terms, the resistance of your coils determines how quickly/slowly your coil will heat up. Low resistance coils (for example 0.15ohms) produce warmer vapour and larger clouds which are better suited for direct-lung vapers, whereas high resistance coils (for example 1.2ohms) produce a cooler vape which is more ideal for mouth-to-lung vapers.
We recommend high resistance coils, such as 1.2ohms, for e-liquid which contains high strength nicotine such as nicotine salts and low resistance coils, such as 0.2ohms for freebase e-liquid.
See our Coil Compatibility Chart for more info on what coils work with your device.
What is a good vape for beginners?
The VAPO team highly recommends closed pod systems for beginners looking to kick the habit of cigarettes! The alt. Pod Kit has a proven track record of being one of the best solutions for anyone looking to switch from cigarettes.
The alt. Pod Kit and Replacement Pods are easily accessible – available in over 2500 stores throughout New Zealand. You can find the alt. Pods and kits in most places where cigarettes are available, including, but not limited to; Pak’n’Save, New World, Four Square, Liquorland, Countdown, Fresh Choice, Z Fuel stations, BP Fuel, Mobil and Caltex, along with dairies/convenience and liquor stores.
The alt. Pod Kit is one of the easiest vapes to use. Simply insert the pod in the battery and inhale! No button, no mess, no fuss. The battery simply charges via Micro USB. When the liquid in your pod is finished, simply replace this pod and vape on.
What is a good wattage to vape at for beginners?
Wattage is a simple measure of the power used with an electronic cigarette and with some devices you’re able to adjust the wattage to your liking. The adjustments made will determine how much power your vape will use and how warm and dense or light and smooth your vapor production will be.
Wattage will vary from device to device and most people will have a different preference on what to set their wattage to on their device. Generally speaking, it is recommended that you say in between the wattages the coil manufacturer specifies. For example, the Vaporesso GT Core GT2 0.4ohm coil recommends that you the wattage is best for this coil between 55w-65w. This recommendation allows you to understand which wattage gets the most out of this coil, however you may wish to use this coil at 25w for example which is completely fine, as it does not go over the recommended 65w. Adjustable wattage allows you to completely customize the heat and density of your vapour production to your liking!
Different nicotine levels will help you determine which wattage to use as well. For example, nicotine salts should NEVER be used with sub-ohm coils as those coils will provide far too much power and will provide an unpleasant experience. Nicotine salts should be used with high resistance coils such as 1.2ohms and the recommended wattage will generally be between 11-14w depending on the coil. Sub-ohm coils with a lower resistance are suited best for freebase nicotine such as 3mg which can be vaped at higher wattages such as 55w depending on the coil.
