10 Best Vape Mod Kits for Beginners in 2018

Compact, hefty, and entirely unique, the tiny PLY Rock Zilla kit not only gives beginners a potent, hard-hitting 60-watt mod, but also one of the finest enthusiast atomizers on the market, the Wake sub-ohm tank.

Powered by a 2,000 mAh internal battery, the PLY Rock Zilla is undeniably ergonomic – right down to a palm-friendly design, large, firm fire button, and easy to use menu system. But it’s also extremely pocket-friendly, while still offering more than enough heft to be reassuring in the hands and the pockets.

While the 60-watt power limit won’t be setting any records for cloud-production, the combination of the Zilla mod and Wake tank will give new vapers more flavor than they could ever expect out of a limited pod setup or disposable cig-a-like. And with a full-featured, but streamlined temperature control suite onboard, users can ease their way into more advanced use over time.

All of this is conveyed through a bright, easy-to-read OLED display, which not only makes things clear for users upon first firing the Zilla, but they’ll also learn more about the functionalities behind the operations, ensuring safe enjoyment throughout.

On its own, the PLY Rock Zilla is a fantastic, budget-friendly setup for new vapers. Packed with the Wake tank, users are getting a top-tier pairing that might even have some experienced vapers wondering where to pick one up.

I’d venture to say a high percentage of today’s experienced vapers got their start with an Eleaf iStick-branded mod. Hell, my first “high-powered” mod was an iStick – a mod that still gets some use in my house, more than four years after it debuted.

The ultra-portable Eleaf iStick Pico Baby 25W kit continues this tradition, offering newcomers a device pairing that perfectly bridges the gap between all-in-one simplicity, and higher-end performance and satisfaction. And it all comes in a stealthy, ergonomic setup perfect for pockets, purses and any situation where you don’t want to draw attention to your vape mod.

With a capable 1,050mAh internal battery, direct voltage format, companion tank and long-lasting coil system in the box, all users will need is some e-liquid and a quick read of the instruction manual.

While the battery is somewhat limited, and the 2mL tank capacity isn’t going to win any awards for longevity, the Pico Baby isn’t supposed to be a cloud-chucking machine. It’s supposed to bring new vapers to the party, through a tiny, welcoming package that brings strong flavor, and surprisingly powerful draws – even from just 25 watts behind them.

Plus, with the proven GS Air coil system in place, these newcomers can rest assured they won’t be buying replacement coils every 3-4 days. We’re still using the ones that came in the box, long after the Pico Baby starter kit arrived on our desks.

If the coils can handle OUR use and abuse, then beginner vapers are going to get a long life from each coil they attach to this ultra-portable setup.

One term you’ll see often in this article is “advanced vaping.” Now, “advanced” is a relative term, to be sure. But for beginner vapers, “advanced” likely means having a bit more control over the vape experience than a pen-style or cig-a-like will allow.

But some companies simply don’t start there. Take Voopoo, for example, which recently joined the entry-level vape mod market with its truly ADVANCED Mojo 88W starter kit. And believe the power-hungry vapers behind these desks – the Mojo is employing some seriously advanced technology beneath that durable, but decidedly “entry-level” exterior.

The Voopoo Mojo is powered by the vaunted GENE chipset – the same board behind the company’s fantastic Drag and TOO mods – scaled back to work with an internal battery. But don’t let the Mojo’s 88-watt limit fool you, because this mod ramps up as quickly as any other Voopoo device. In other words, it heats quickly, smoothly and effectively, every time you hit the fire key.

This is made easier with the Mojo’s ergonomic and beginner-friendly operations, which combine stealthy button placement and a simplified, linear menu system that’s easily navigated on the bright OLED display. It’s not the most-intricate system out there, but it doesn’t need to be. The important information is there, allowing new users to quickly acclimate to this level of vaping.

The included U-FORCE sub-ohm tank only improves this package, with a tank that can blow clouds or scale back for mouth-to-lung use, thanks to highly adjustable airflow, ample capacity, and long-lasting coils, right in the box.

VOOPOO MOJO 88W TC Box Mod Specs:

• Integrated 2600mAh Rechargeable Battery

If a mod kit like the Voopoo Mojo seems to be a bit much to take when just getting started, perhaps a streamlined direct voltage setup is more appropriate. And few are as simple and potent as the Joyetech EXCEED Box starter kit, which marries a no-nonsense, one-button control system with a litany of protection measures to ensure new users don’t push the mod beyond its limits.

This smoothly curved, unadorned box mod keeps things user-friendly by limiting the functionality to a large, round fire key and an intuitive LED display on the top of the device, which dictates battery life, warning messages and other key information. Because of this, users can grab their EXCEED Box Mods and go about their business.

And they can do so for quite a while, because the EXCEED is equipped with a highly capable 3,000mAh battery, and the companion EXCEED D22C sub-ohm tank, which has 22mm of diameter, an ample 3.5mL tank, and a pair of ultra-long-lasting coils, right in the box.

While the Joyetech EXCEED BOX doesn’t quite have the full customization of other devices on this list, the direct voltage output can be changed to constant voltage, for slight differences in power and performance. But more importantly, the vape quality is tremendous for a mod limited to 50 watts of power – so much so, that our test team found themselves revisiting the EXCEED BOX, long after our research was complete.

• Dimensions – 115mm by 41mm by 25mm

We’ve covered the Limitless Mod Co. Marquee before, in our best AIO device article. But this innovative multitasker just does too many things well – and easily – to not be included here, as well.

As an AIO mod, the Marquee features a built-in 2mL juice chamber, internal 2,400mAh battery and an internal coil system. But this is the first AIO vape mod on this list that features adjustable wattage and temperature control. That’s because the traditional AIO functionality is only one selling point of the Marquee.

The Marquee box mod also comes with a 510-adapter allowing you to put any 510 atomizers on top of the mod, to take advantage of the 80-watt power output, and even a comprehensive temperature control suite, with all the usual bells and whistles. And, for the purists, there’s also a bypass mode, allowing the Marquee to operate as a direct wattage device.

And, the Limitless Marquee also has a patent pending pod adapter, which can accommodate the company’s own Pulse Pods (alongside several other companies’ pod cartridges), and even salt nicotine e-liquid!

For beginners, options are paramount, making the Marquee a tremendous value – one that also offers a wide range of use scenarios, so newcomers can find their preferred style of vaping without breaking the bank or driving themselves nuts along the way.

Limitless Marquee 80W AIO System Specs:

• All-In-One Design – 3-in-1
• 2mL Maximum Juice Reservoir
• Built-In 2400mAh Internal Battery
• Wattage Output Range: 7-80W

For “beginners” who might not have a lot of experience using vape mods, but also know what kind of experience they want, comes the more-targeted Smoant Battlestar Nano RDA 80W starter kit. We say “more targeted” because unlike the barrage of low-wattage tanks you usually see at this level of device, the Battlestar Nano is equipped with a pretty solid rebuildable dripping atomizer (RDA).

Make no mistake, the 80-watt Battlestar Nano isn’t quite a competition-level cloud chucker. But with a streamlined, display-free approach, external 18650 format, and uber-low atomizer resistance level, the Battlestar Nano can put out some ample vapor with the included RDA.

Now, don’t worry – Smoant set this mod up with considerable protection measures, including low resistance, draw time cutoff, reverse polarity, overheating and more, so newcomers don’t need to worry about pushing the device past its capabilities. However, with no control or operation system in place, they’ll also need to learn battery and coil-building safety before moving forward.

That said, the included Battlestar 24mm RDA makes that pretty easy, with a simplified, two-post design that leads to easy, secure coil builds, and proven dripper flavor and vapor.

The Smoant Battlestar Nano might be the odd duck on this list, but for beginner vapers who want to move a little closer to the advanced performance they’ve seen from other mods, this kit is a sensible, well-spec’d option.

Smoant Battlestar Nano 80W Box Mod Specs:

• Dimensions – 81mm by 37mm by 24mm
• Single 18650 High-Amp Battery – Not Included
• Wattage Output Range: 1-80W

With so many mods on the market, it’s no surprise to see SMOK make this list, as well. But the SMOK Stick Prince kit is a classy, understated option for beginner vapers who want the power and performance of a mechanical tube mod, but with the safety and regulation SMOK is known for the world around.

This 148mm tall tube stays true to the classic mech mod format, but in a compact design that is portable and pocketable and feels good in the hands. The Stick Prince is also reassuringly hefty, thanks to a sizable 3,000mAh internal battery, and a chipset that provides a full slate of safety measures, including cutoff, temperature and resistance protection, so newcomers won’t get in over their heads.

Thanks to a subtle, non-intrusive LED indicator, users can determine battery life, warnings and more, without sacrificing the “pure” mech mod experience offered by the direct voltage setup. Indeed, the Stick hits smoothly, ramps quickly, and brings flavorful vapor in every draw, without having to fiddle with endless menu trees or temperature settings.

Perhaps the most-enticing part of the SMOK Stick Prince kit is the included TFV12 Prince tank, complete with a pair of direct voltage M4 coils, which last a good while, and offer unparalleled performance throughout. This was one of our favorite tanks from the last year, and it sings with the format-specific coil system.

Perhaps the most adjustable, full-featured device on this list, the iJOY Elite PS2170 100W starter kit combines the portability and usability newcomers desire in their first advanced vape mod, with the extended battery capacity of larger 21700 cells. The result is a 100-watt vape device that could potentially appeal to power users and vape newbies alike.

The PS2170’s slender, tall design allows for a compact device that felt good in our hands, but was also truly portable, sliding easily into our front pockets whenever the need arose. And thanks to iJOY’s trademark firm, oversized fire button – still the best in the business, as far as we’re concerned – you can stow the mod away without worrying about inadvertent firing or adjustments.

Another carryover from iJOY’s more advanced vape mods is the clean, highly intuitive operating system, based on its bigger brothers, but streamlined to accommodate newcomers without confusion. That said, don’t confuse “easy to use” with “dumbed down” — the Elite PS2170 offers full customization, temperature control, TCR settings, and firmware upgrade ability, presented in a way that invites new users in without scaring them away.

The complete kit also comes with the proven and popular iJOY Captain Mini sub-ohm tank, which has a respectable 3.2mL capacity, and high-performance CA-series coils, which offer good longevity and category-leading flavor.

Again, the PS2170 might be a little too “advanced” for some new vapers. But for those who learn quickly and want a full-featured mod that will grow with them, there are few options more appealing than iJOY’s potent, pocket-friendly kit.

For similar levels of customization and scalable performance, in a more compact package, newcomers are strongly encouraged to check out Vaporesso’s beginner-friendly but top-performing Revenger Mini 85W starter kit.

First off, despite the reduced size and internal 2,500mAh battery format, the Revenger Mini maintains the series’ striking design aesthetic, right down to the simplified but detailed display and beveled edges. More importantly, the Revenger Mini also comes with a variant of the top-performing OMNI Board 2.2, which has powered its highly successful big brothers since the series launched last year.

Vaporesso packed a lot of technology into this tiny, but durable aluminum chassis, evident through the Revenger Mini’s full slate of features, including temperature control, bypass mode, customized wattage and temp curve control, smart wattage detection and TCR. It’s a fully fleshed out lineup of customizations that’s not only rare for mods in this category, but also for mods with twice the supposed power.

Included in the box is the fantastic NRG SE sub-ohm tank, which has a respectable 3.5mL capacity, easy-to-use top fill cap, strong airflow control, and a fantastic lineup of GT Cores, which can appeal to any type of vaper, new or experienced.

As a result, the Revenger Mini is among the strongest performers on this list, and – if not for a showing from FreeMax – could very well have been the breadwinner in this category.

As I wrote in my review a few months back, “…the FreeMax Firelord 80W starter kit is a thing of beauty. It’s not the most powerful setup in my collection. It’s not the most compact. But the shiny resin Conqueror mod, and the matching Firelord tank, might be the single-most beautiful pairing in my collection.”

And this beauty comes paired with beginner-friendly usability and top-tier performance throughout.

The resin-based Conqueror 80W Box Mod features an onboard chipset powered by a single 18650 battery, with a wattage capability of up to 80W with full temperature control in tow.

When vaping the kit, the Conqueror’s 80-watt maximum was easily achieved and maintained on a single 18650, with surprisingly good battery life, even when maxed out. And the easily adjusted temperature control settings worked well, with no resistance jumps or odd heat limit warnings. It was all simple and user-friendly, even for beginners – a group we knew (even then) would be well-served by the Firelord kit.

One reason for this was just how easily the Conqueror ramped up, even at lower wattages, offering measured bursts of flavor and vapor on every draw. Having tested so many devices, I now realize just how rare and special this is for a low- to mid-wattage mod.

Paired with the fantastic Firelord tank, this kit is a perfect pairing. Not only do the Conqueror and Firelord just lookbetter together, but the combination also makes for a beautiful, high-performing vape device that will appeal to newcomers and veteran vapers alike. Not only as a first “advanced” vape mod, but one that will remain in a collection for years to come.
