My mum has been a smoker for 35 years (about 10 a day) and has decided she wants to try vaping to help her quit. She's not tech-savvy at all and needs something very simple. Budget is flexible. Which OXVA kit would you recommend as a gift for an absolute beginner who smokes?

As someone who quit cigarettes after years and switched to vaping, this is my area! The XLIM Pro 3 is ideal for a smoking switcher because it's simple, reliable, and doesn't require any technical knowledge to use. Auto-draw means she doesn't even have to press a button.

Get her 20mg nic salts – Elfliq is the easiest starting point because it's simple to find and very consistent. Maybe get her the Blueberry or Spearmint to start.

The most important thing: tell her to give it at least 2-3 weeks before judging. The first few days of switching can feel odd, but it gets much better. Having support from family makes a real difference too.

XLIM Pro 3 and 20mg nic salts. Same advice I'd give. The auto-draw is a real help for smokers because they're used to just drawing without pressing anything. Good luck to your mum – being there to help her set it up and prime the first pod will make a real difference.

XLIM Pro 3 ordered along with some Elfliq in a couple of flavours. Really helpful to hear from people who've made the same switch. Will be there to help her set it up properly. Fingers crossed!
