Looking for the best vape starter kits doesn’t need to be a daunting task. While there are a lot of choices available, some kits are more compatible with new vapers than others. Pod vapes are a great starting point; they have prefixed coils, some have pre-filled pods, and generally minimal settings, if any at all. They do all the hard work for you, making it easier than ever to use vapes to quit smoking.
Best Vapes to Quit Smoking
To help you on your journey, I’ve compiled a list of what I believe to be the best vape starter kits based on convenience, ease of use, video reviews and guides, plus scrolling through the hundreds of reviews – because our customers know a good vape when they use it.
VLTZ flex Pro – Your New Favourite Vape Starter Kit

First up is the massively popular VLTZ flex Pro Bar. This vape starter kit can work great with both the flex Pro Pre-filled Pods and flex Pro Refillable Pod. There are no buttons to press or settings to change, it’s a simple mouth to lung (MTL) draw which resembles that of smoking a cigarette.
The next on my list is the flex Pro Box. With this kit you can change the airflow which is a great first step into customising your vaping experience. Similar to the flex Pro Bar, the device is MTL with draw activated vaping, and the box shape fits nicely in the palm of your hand. The flex Pro Box is also compatible with both the Refillable and Pre-filled flex Pro Pods.

"lovely piece of kit"
"i thought that because it was a small bar that the intake wouldn't be much, but i was surprised! you take in a lot just from a single puff. let alone, the refillable headpieces you get have an atomizer that lasts a very, very long time. great stuff!"

Lumina

The Lumina vape starter kit offers a little more control thanks to changeable settings, but you don't have to. Firstly, you can change the wattage on the device, but it has a smart detection system that will reset back to the optimised setting every time you insert the Lumina LX Pod. It has an airflow control on the front to tailor your vaping style. Another addition in comparison to the flex Bar is the LED screen on the front. This gives a digital representation of the device’s battery level, current wattage, and a puff counter.
VLTZ Max 12

The VLTZ Max 12 is a game-changer for flexibility. What I love about this kit is the integrated 12ml refill bottle. You simply fill the internal bottle with your favourite e-liquid, like VLTZ Bar Salts, and it feeds directly into the pod. It's perfect if you’re out all day and don’t want to carry extra bottles around.
It's powered by a long-lasting 1350mAh battery that can last the average user up to two days. Plus, it's smart; it automatically toggles between 'boost' and 'balance' modes depending on your pod's resistance.

Tornado GTL – Best Selling Vape Starter Kit

The Tornado GTL launched in 2022 and has been a fan favourite for new vapers ever since. This vape starter kit does require a little more maintenance than pod vapes that use pre-filled or refillable pods with pre-fixed coils. But I wouldn’t let that get in the way of a great vape kit. In the long run, simply only replacing coils is much cheaper and allows you to choose from a wider range of ohm resistance, ultimately finding your own vape style.

Aeromax

The Aeromax is a rechargeable and refillable pod system that bridges the gap between simplicity and performance. If you want a bit more “oomph,” this device offers adjustable wattage from 6W to 40W.
I found the LCD screen incredibly helpful; it clearly shows your battery life and current wattage. It even has a wattage memory function that remembers your settings for up to three different pods.
- Customisation: Slide the airflow toggle on the front to find your perfect draw.
- Battery: 1100mAh for full-day use.
- Convenience: Side-fill pods mean you don't even have to remove the pod to top up your juice.
