There are a lot of things to consider when you buy your first kit...
  • Do you want to MTL (mouth to lung) or DL (direct lung/subohm) vape?
  • Do you want a lightweight, all in one device?
  • Do you want a mod with a separate tank w/replaceable coils?
  • Do you want to have separate batteries/charger or an internal battery?

I dont really know. It was given to me. I took it to a shop and bought some coils for it. They were triple mesh. I do remember that. Sorry for not knowing too much. Just trying to stay quit from cigs.

Okay, triple mesh was probably around .2 or .3 ohm. That's a very substantial vape. Not sure how much more you are looking for.
More vapor?
More Nicotine?
More flavor?

I think more vape and flavor. Besides the stick doesnt like pockets and the battery dies very quick. I think it's just old

If you're looking for power and long battery life, you'll need a high Mah internal battery or a dual battery mod. eLeaf makes the iPower, it's an 80w mod with a 5000Mah internal battery.

High wattage mods is not really my area... I vape right around 20-25w, so most of my mods are only 50-80w mods. @CrazyChef v2.0 or some of our other members would certainly know better on higher powered mods than me.

As far as vapor production and flavor goes... the higher the VG, the more vapor it will produce when combined with higher wattages.

Flavor... this relies about 70% on the juice itself. If you have a juice that's light in flavor, that will reflect in the vape. Likewise if it has too much flavor. IMO, juice is at the top of the quality importance table for me. If you don't have good juice, you can't expect to get a good vape out of it. So be sure you are getting quality juices from reputable vendors. If you don't know of any juice vendors, there is a list on my blog of recommended juice and gear vendors. The link is in my signature, the lists are on the right hand side of my home page.

There's your problem... The Smok Prince Stick is designed to work with the M4 coils. Running the triple mesh coils (much more power hungry) would produce less vapor and a cooler vape than you might want.

I'm in no way trying to talk you out of buying a new kit. In fact, I highly recommend a new kit - internal battery mods end up as paperweights regardless of how they're babied - but, switching to the M4 coils in that tank will give you a better vape and a little more time to research and decide on what is best for you.

Sounds logical to me. Only problem I have is not knowing what kits I would like. I hear good and bad about different mods. So ultimately that is why I am here with people who know.
That's just it though, we cannot tell you what YOU would like. Everyone has a different style of vaping, different preferences. All we can really do is guide you to a solid purchase of a quality setup. Your best bet is to do some online shopping, post the links here and then we can tell you what we know about those devices/kits.

SMOK is one of those brands you either hate or love, I personally am not a fan.
I've never heard anything bad about the VooPoo Drag. I have one, but haven't used it yet other than testing.
Vaporesso is a quality brand.

I bet this this puts out some massive clouds.
It's a dual replaceable battery mod so you'd need to find at least one pair on good high drain 18650 cells.

A dual 18650 (Around 200 watts) mod / kit is what I would suggest for your style of vaping

You may only vape at 75 watts but if you buy a single battery 80 watt mod you are maxing out the chip and there will be horrible battery life.

Even if you vape at 30 watts i'd still suggest the dual battery mod because most single battery mods won't make it through even an 8hr work day.

Then you'd eventually want to get an extra set of batteries and an external charger so you can have one set on charge and one set in the mod.

Waiting for batteries to charge is no fun.

The Revenger is a pretty solid dual batt device. A bit of a finger print magnet but the board is pretty good and fires fast. Smok is hated by many but my experience with them is that they work fine. But they are mass produced so duds do get out to the masses. If you go with a dual battery mod I would buy 4 batteries of the Sony VTC5a or VTC6 and an external charger. Charging your batts in the mod is not advised by the majority of us due to the potential hazards of mods not always doing balanced charging well.

For a subtank the Falcon with mesh coils are pretty popular from what I can tell. I only use rebuildables so just going by the grapevine on that.

The above suggestion about getting the proper coils for your stick could be a way to go while you dig a little deeper into the rabbit hole to decide what will fit your needs.
