Hi Bit-vape, I am interested in purchasing for my uncle, who has never tried e-cigs before, and since he's been smoking 20+ yrs I'd like for him to make a transition to the healthier vaping alternative. What would you recommend for the complete novice?

I would get him an eGo starter kit and a couple bottles of e-liquid in some flavors he likes. I would also snag a drip tip, because most vapers quickly get frustrated by fiddling with refilling cartridges and eventually move on to 'dripping' straight into the atomizer - this gives a much stronger/more flavorful hit and lets you forget about cartridges forever.

You might also get a low-resistance atomizer - in these the atomizer coil gets a lot hotter and therefore give a much stronger hit. The starter kits come with regular atomizers, I can't use them anymore because they aren't strong enough so I only use LR attys, but it might be 'too much' for a beginner.

The Joye 510 starter kit is also good, it uses the same standard 510 atomizers as the eGo, but the battery is much smaller and therefore only lasts a few hours before needing to recharge, while the eGo batteries last me all day. Also a regular 510 battery isn't recommended for use with low-resistance atomizers because they put more of a drain on the batteries.
