darn it! I wasted all of these thousands of dollars when i should of just got one of these!!!! ;-) it dose look cool some people really like auto bats it im sure it will have a following.
I just ordered a aero s yesterday it activated when tilted so its kind of a automatic mod.
it's not about wasting thousands, it's about now investing in the best!
What happened was this buzzzlove: I joined here in february 2011. My intention was to buy an e-cig to quit cigs. Back in late 2010 and early 2011, the e-cig phenomenon started to really catch on big. So, i decided to become a member here and learn as much as i could about e-cigs and find a company to buy from. I learned quite a bit from a lot of helpful members here and i am thankful for all the variety and choices i had to be educated on.
After a lot of reading, research, and asking questions, it became clear i wanted a kr8: It was the only 2 piece system (at the time, that has changed maybe now?) of a battery and cartomizer, it was fairly affordable and inexpensive in the long term, it was fairly universal because you didn't have to just stick to one companies proprietary products, and there were many options and vendors to choose from to get carts, batts, and flavors that could be swapped and interchanged with other companies products. Imho, the kr8 is still the best for its 2 part system, ease of use, universality, and options.
Next was the find a vendor. I read a lot of great reviews on many places, and my top choices were vapor4life and smoketip. I went with vapor4life because they had a really good customer base here on the forum and also because they had (and still have) the most prefilled cart flavors and juice flavors with excellent all around ratings. One thing that caused hesitation was, as some of you have made the point, the price. They are a bit pricier than others, but when you spend the money, you know where it has gone. They have without a doubt the best customer service there is, hands down. I can say that matter of factly after two and a half years of being a member and e-cig person. I think part of the reason they are a little more costly is just because of that. They also are one of (if not the only company i know of) the only companies that is american through and through, and before you disagree, let me clarify: They obviously have a chinese factory, but they own it and besides having their own unique product line, are completely involved in the product and manufacturing, which is true to the best of my knowledge, if im wrong, i have no problem with corrections.
So after initially quitting e-cigs in 2011, i had a few hard times staying on the wagon and eventually i went back to analogues after my batts died. As of last week, i had enough again and i wanted to really give it a shot to quit totally again. I decided to come here and find out how things have changed as i had taken a year off and thought the technology and products had changed. I was right, they did. I was going to just order some kr8 batts, but i was hesitant because i was disappointed with my last batts. I came here to ask around and people recommended the dial a volt. Like you, the price urked me and i did not want to make such an investment. You know what, im glad i did!
I have never been so happy with any e-cig product in my life. It truly is amazing and v4l has set themselves apart from every vendor ive ever ordered from with their amazing quality and customer service. After expressing my hard time with my last purchase and with analogues, they really took the time to care for one of their own, as i was pretty much exclusively a v4l customer, though i bought from a few others, a very close second being madvapes who i still think is an excellent choice. They really took time to show they cared with the order extras they sent me, partly to motivate me and partly to make up for any past issues i had with kr8 batts. They really listened to my concerns and took time to look into my past issues and make things better and right for me this time, and i really think they wanted to help me with my resolve in quitting.
Whatever the reason, with the auto dav i have been won over completely. I like auto batteries and my wife does not like manuals at all. Since it is the first and only auto adjustable volt battery on the market, and thank god its a kr8, my interest was high. Since it was v4l, it became higher since i spent so much money with them in the past. And of course, i knew the quality would be good. Again, the price did scare me a bit, but once you get it, you know where your money went. You gotta understand, the higher prices go towards making better products and the best customer service there is. I feel customer service and appreciation is very important, and they definitely don't just take your money and run. Part of their profit goes back into caring for their customers, and they showed that to me this time.
If you ever need any help, the member on here from the v4l forum section named "bham" is here to listen and help. I recommend v4l with all my heart and if you ever need assistance, please pm or post a thread with bham addressed, and let him know what you want and need. He will take care of you with the best service, i assure you, and if you tell him it's from a v4l family member such as myself that sent you, he will know its because someone else cared enough to let you know
