Battery Life Smoke/Vapor Cust. Service Cost/ValueMaintenance is important with any ecig kit that you buy that is not the pre-filled disposable. Just plan ahead on your needs if you cant purchase the liquid locally and keep an extra battery and atty around too. Your savings will be tremendous and the product is much better. I was spending a fortune weekly on the cartridges with mistic and metro around 50 to 60 per week for just me, not including my fiance, he was about the same ... now I spend about 35 a week on both of us. I saved enough money the first week of smoking this brand to cover the cost of the starter kit!! To me that is incredible! |

There are a few variations of Starter Kits, Gift Sets, Disposable E-Cigarette and accessory options to choose from when electing a purchase from NS. All kits utilize a three piece system or an individual Battery, Atomizer and Cartridge to create your vaping experience. Each unit has a plastic LED tip that glows Blue with inhalation. NicStick vaping units are initially sold in Black and use Black colored plastic cartridges that are not wrapped in a paper covering unlike other brands of e-cigarettes. Of the electronic cigarette kits available through NS, I've had the opportunity to review both the Starter Kit Duo and the NS Tank Duo.
The NS Duo is a Basic Starter Kit that includes 1 Atomizer, 2 140 mAh rechargeable batteries and your choice of 3 pre-filled cartridges in USA Mix or Menthol. This kit includes 1 USB Charger that fully charges batteries within 2 hours but doesn't have an automatic shut off, so it's imperative when charging these batteries you're aware of the time. Leaving a battery unattended for over 4 hours may cause irreversible damage. Batteries for the Duo are rechargeable up to 30 times each before they will need to be replaced. A reference card providing directions for usage and how to maintain the units' effectiveness is also included. Nicstick's Duo is simple to use and creates billowing clouds of vapor with each inhalation. The length of NS's Duo completely assembled and ready to use is 4.5 inches long. One full cartridge is equal to one pack of traditional cigarettes and the throat hit is comparable to that of a traditional cigarette. Once a cartridge is empty it may be safely refilled up to five times or topped off with your choice of e-liquid. Using this method will extend the life of your cartridge and stretches your dollar for maximum value. Empty cartridges compatible with the Nick Stick Duo are purchasable through Nicstick's website and may be used with any e-liquid of your choosing to create a customized vaping experience.
NS's Tank Duo is slightly more pricy but well worth the extra cash. This kit arrives in a padded Black presentation box that emanates a feeling of sophistication. NS's Tank Duo kit includes: 2 rechargeable, 5 volt Lithium-Ion Batteries; one 220 mAh (4.5 inches long, fully assembled) and one 340 mAh (5.3/4 inches long, fully assembled), 2 Atomizers, 1 Black mesh carrying case, 1 USB Adapter with a built in automatic shut off sensor eliminating any risk of overcharging, 1 Wall Charger, 5 full tank cartridges, an instruction manual and a mini reference card listing tips for proper care of the unit. The Tank Duo utilizes the latest microcircuit airflow switch which provides an effortless pull and a crisper flavor sensation. Cartridges are clear or a semi-clear Black enabling the user to view exactly how much e-liquid is remaining, consequently removing any guess work when it's time to refill. One full Tank Cartridge is equal to approximately 300 puffs or about 1.5 packs of cigarettes and will hold 0.7 ml of e-liquid. The NS Tank does exhibit consecutively large vapor similar to the NS Duo and provides a smooth throat hit that is both realistic and not overly powerful. During use the Atomizer on this device may get noticeably warm. Don't be alarmed, there's a safety mechanism that will temporarily shut off the e-cig if overheat heating occurs.
Nicotine cartridges for all NS Starter Kits are available in two standard choices of either 24 mg or 18 mg. Additional Nicotine choices such as 0 mg, 7 mg, and 11 mg are available by request only. Flavored e-liquids listed on the NS's website appear to be limited to just a few flavors such as USA Mix, Coffee, Turkish Blend and Horse Power an actual energy infused e-liquid. However, if it's a sweeter vape you crave NS has you covered. Sweeter flavors such as Grape, Fruit Mix, Cherry and Blueberry along with similar fruit flavors are available by request. E-liquids are available in different size bottles that vary in price range. E-liquids are available in 5 ml, 10 ml and 15 ml options. When ordering an e-liquid not listed on the NS website it's best to engage the Live Chat option or email customer service to find out which flavors are available and in what size bottles. NS is partners with Dekang, one of the top e-liquid providers in the electronic cigarette industry. So NS dose have the ability to provide many of the flavors you might be seeking.
An invaluable amount of information is available when engaging NS's Live Chat option. Upon choosing this feature, a well versed Customer Service Agent quickly connects with you making help available. If utilizing a Live Chat option is not something you'd prefer, NS lists a Customer Service number on their website. Or if researching your own answers is better suited to your needs, NS supplies a Help Section that walks customers through commonly asked questions.
During review of NS products, I'd have to honestly say that they have gone beyond my personal expectations in performance, appearance and service and I highly recommend their products to all e-cigarette users.
