Hi Guys

Thirty a day smoker here.

I bought my Twisp is November last year and used it from time to time, but now decided it is time to finally let the stinkies go.

I'm battling to stop my twisp from leaking. I have tried everything, but nothing works. I am interested in getting something else.

I have the twisp edge, so what will you guys suggest I get if I want to get something similar to the twisp. I have no idea whats on the market and I bought the twisp only because it is sold at our SASOL garage.

Please Help

Thanks
 
Hey man i have/had the edge and i must say since i upgraded to my kangertech subox mini the twisp is a piece of crap even their juice so id highly recommend the subox mini or the topbox mini kits

Hi there. I'm also a bit of a noob but if you are looking for something similar to the twisp i would suggest the Eleaf Ijust2. someone may have a better suggestion but I have used one myself and it vapes lekker for a beginner device.

Welcome @PrinceVlad. From my own experience once this happens to a Twisp product it never stops. I would suggest looking at products like iJust2, Kanger Subvod or EGO - All pen devices.

Other devices to consider, but definitely larger than the pen type devices, Kanger Topbox Starter kit or Evic VTC Mini with a decent tank.

Also look around the forum and get an idea what people are using.

Here some links:

Depends on 2 things really..budget and form factor. If you enjoy pen style then yes the AIO is pretty good for the price. If you havr the budget and dont mind the form then I would suggest the toptank mini kit or a evic mini kit. Those two give you the option to explore temp control later on without upgrading again.
 
Thanks guys.

I quite like the EGO AIO and checked on Vapeking's site, but I can't seem to find the replacement coils for the EGo or am I just too noob to find it.

Nope, not too noob. They are just not available yet - the device is brand new on the market. The Cubis coil heads works perfectly on the AIO, but unfortunately Vape King does not have stock of those either. @Ernest prefers the 1.0 ohm Cubis units on the AIO and I tend to agree. These you can get from www.Vapeclub.co.za - cheaper if you take 5 - http://www.vapeclub.co.za/collectio...t/products/cubis-bf-ss316-coil-1-0-ohm-5-pack. Vapeclub should have the AIOs in stock by late next week.

VapeMob also has the whole range of Cubis coils and they are the same as the eGo all in one coils.
 
@Kolashnikov More like 230w, and the car battery you have hooked up to it can handle the 48A draw, no problem.

edit: calculation mistake. More like 700w and 84A. right, vape on.

Having read up a bit, I might just buy the Topbox Mini. You guys dont know if there are any retailers at the Rand Show. Im going tomorrow and might just shop a bit

Some very good advice in previous posts, so I can't add much there. I had a Twisp device with same problems you have described and managed to stop it leaking by throwing it into a nearby dam.

EXCELLENT first buy! It will set the standard for flavour for a long time. When upgrade time comes it is a GREAT kit to compare other setups to. I cannot think of a better choice. I am a huge fan of these clever little kits. Wish I started on something this nice. Excellent, EXCELLENT choice!

Out of your choices I would go toptank or the VTC kit. I prefer the feel of my Joyetech gear though. That being said, your research is solid, these are all very nice devices.

Your first option I have not tried other than the Melo2 tank, which was not bad, but not wow either. See you can get commercial coil units for it nowadays, but have not used same so cannot comment.

The Evic VTC Mini has more power and give you the full range of temperature control wires, which the iStick does not. Would certainly be my choice as a mod. The TRON my wife uses, but only with the rebuildable base. The commercial coil heads are not very good. Also, this tank is more for mouth to lung vaping - not very suitable for direct to lung hitting if that is your preference. I notice Vaperite also sells the Evic Mini on its own - bear in mind it can be upgraded via PC to 75W, do not let the advertised 60W mislead you.

So, the Evic Mini as a mod. Maybe with the Toptank Mini on top of it - a versatile tank imo. Otherwise the full Topbox kit.
 
Hi Guys

Havent had a stinkie since Friday Afternoon. Great.

I am still looking around in order to replace the Twisp, but I am very bad at making decisions. Everytime I see something I like something else pops up, so I need your help.

Some of the Starter kits I saw:

1. Kanger Topbox Mini Kit
2. Istick 60W kit
3. Evic VTC Mini
4. SMOK Micro One

Which one would you recommend or are there any other options. Im in your hands.

Thanks

I believe the vtc mini device is better than the top box mini. However the tron tank that comes with the vtc is not better than the one that comes with the top box.

So i would say vtc and subtank

For me it would be Kangertech all the way!
 
Seriously, please, just leave the Twisp. I have the Aero which is a piece of ....(I don’t want to get sued) The Twisp Edge is even worse. The best thing to do is to hook up with someone who vapes and gain some knowledge. Also, visit the online vendors as mentioned above and Google the items that attract your eye and heart. More importantly, jump in the deep end and swim your way to satisfaction. Everyone has to start somewhere. Try what the guys have suggested above as a starter kit.
