VapeCon starter kits budget options: budget edition (70 W)
VapeCon starter kits advice for Austria, covering budget options, what to look for and where the trade-offs actually sit.
Local availability in Austria shapes the practical answer more than the marketing does. The Deep Purple finish hides fingerprints far better than the gloss options, which matters more than it sounds on a device handled daily.
Local availability in Austria shapes the practical answer more than the marketing does. Vapour production is more than adequate at 120, and pushing beyond that adds heat rather than anything worth carrying.
The 8.0 ml capacity is a genuinely useful middle ground: enough liquid for a long session without turning the device into a pocket problem. Expect roughly 1775 full puffs from a charge at 12 mg/ml, based on average session length in our testing. Delivery across Austria is typically two to four working days with tracked dispatch, and returns are straightforward within the standard window.
In Austria, availability of the 0.8 Ω mesh coil is the practical bottleneck, not the device itself. The standard bore mouthpiece is comfortable over long sessions and resists the condensation that gathers on narrower tips. Comparing this against a 70:30 PG/VG setup shows the difference clearly: one favours flavour, the other favours volume.
Materials are unremarkable on paper and feel reassuringly solid in the hand, with no flex in the body at all. The instruction booklet is thin, but the diagrams are clear enough that most people set the device up without further help. The build quality on Beipu B2 is a step above most of what sits in the same price bracket, and the finish resists the chipping that usually shows after a few months of pocket carry.
Build quality is the quiet differentiator here, with tight seams and a connector that has not loosened after repeated removal. Charging over Micro-USB takes about 84 from empty, and the pass-through means the device can be used while plugged in on the smaller batteries. Two things to check before ordering: the Micro-USB socket on the base and whether the 0.8 Ω mesh coil is the newer generation.
Worth noting that the Q-Plus takes a small amount of care to keep clean, which we cover in the maintenance section below. For first-time buyers, the learning curve is shorter than the specification list suggests, and daily use is straightforward from the first charge. Flavour tracking stays consistent from the first day to roughly the 0.8 Ω mesh mark before the profile flattens and a swap makes sense.

Flavour and performance notes
A representative profile is Strawberry Cream: creamy, sweet, described as smooth strawberry custard with a light dairy note. On a 70:30 PG/VG ratio this reads clearly on the first day and holds its character to roughly the 0.8 Ω mesh mark before the coil begins to mute it.
Practical considerations in Austria
Availability in Austria is the factor that decides most outcomes here. Confirm the 0.8 Ω mesh and the Micro-USB are both in stock before committing, and check that the Q-Plus matches your existing device if you already own hardware. Duty and EUR rates move, so treat prices as current rather than fixed.
If any of the above addresses what you were trying to solve, the rest of the pages in this section cover it in more detail.
