All our recommended starter kits support MTL vaping and work perfectly with nicotine salts.
Why Choose a Starter Kit?
Starter kits are specifically designed to make vaping simple, accessible, and enjoyable from day one. Here's why they're the perfect choice for beginners.
Unlike advanced vape kits, starter kits require no technical knowledge. Most devices are draw-activated with no buttons or complicated menus.
Simply charge, fill (or insert a prefilled pod), and start vaping immediately.
Starter kits offer excellent value compared to disposables. While the initial investment is slightly higher, replacement pods and e-liquid cost significantly less than buying new disposables weekly.
Designed specifically for smokers transitioning to vaping, starter kits provide a familiar MTL draw and satisfying throat hit.
Pair with nic salts for fast nicotine delivery similar to cigarettes.
Compact and lightweight, starter kits fit easily in pockets or bags. Their discreet vapour production makes them ideal for vaping on the go.

How To Choose The Right Starter Kit
Choosing the right starter kit depends on your vaping style, experience level, and personal preferences. Here's what to consider.
MTL (Mouth-To-Lung) vaping mimics cigarette draws with tight airflow and works best with nic salts. All our recommended starter kits support MTL vaping perfectly.
RDL (Restricted Direct-To-Lung) offers a slightly looser draw with more vapour. Devices like the OXVA Xlim Pro 2 support both styles.
Battery capacity determines how long your device lasts between charges. For all-day vaping, choose devices with 1500mAh+ batteries like the Vaporesso XROS 5 or OXVA NeXlim.
For lighter vapers, 1000mAh devices like the Vaporesso XROS 5 Mini provide ample power.
Refillable pod kits offer more flavour variety and better long-term value. You control your e-liquid choice and nicotine strength.
Prefilled kits like the Lost Mary BM6000 eliminate refilling entirely for maximum convenience.
Check which replacement pods your device uses. Popular systems like OXVA Xlim and Vaporesso XROS offer multiple resistance options.
