My uncle is dying so he's started smoking again. I hate the smell tho and want to get him a good vape for Christmas. What are some good vapes/flavors out there? Hopefully for a sane price but sometimes u gotta go all out for ur uncle

    I use this for nicotine, Geekvape Aegis.

    It has a rubberized coating and metal brace so it's durable. Less than $70 probably, only has 2 buttons so it's not overly complex.

        As far as good flavors that's probably dependant on what you/they will be able to get at a local smoke/head shop.

        I like Vapetasia's stuff, but that's what I like best at the place I go to.

        Big second to the Geekvape Aegis. I've used a bunch of different mods and the Aegis is my favorite.

        I have that mod too, and it's great, but keep in mind - you're gonna need a battery charger, 4 batteries, a tank, coils, and juice for this bad boy. You're probably looking at another $60 on top of the $60 for the vape itself, at least. And if he's too boomer-brained he might not be willing to futz with it if he doesn't like it, he might not try different juice or different strengths of nicotine or whatever. He also might not like carrying around the huge heavy box with a leaky tank in his pocket all day (and rare is the tank that won't drip if it gets upended for any significant period of time).

        I guarantee that there's a vape store near you that has a decent starter kit setup that might be better for him to dip his toes in, and a nic salts vape (basically a very fancy juul) might be easier for him.
