but what id like to know is WHY you feel that one VV mod is so much better than the other. i own several different VV/VW mods and to be quite honest, to me, it doesnt make much of a difference which. when they are all set (mine that is) and ready to go, they all put out the same voltages/wattages. granted, some do go up higher in voltage/wattage, BUT do you really NEED that extra volt or couple of watts? all of my tanks are wound to between 1.5 and 1.8 ohms and i run them between 3 and 3.5v, so to me, it doesnt make any difference if a VV mod goes up to 6v. if you have 5 VV mods, and all of them when set put out the same volts and watts, what makes one so much better than the other besides look/fit/finish?.......when it comes down to brass tacks i cant tell much of a difference between ANY of the VV mods with the exception of the price. its like buying a shotgun. of course you ant something of decent quality and that patterns effectively, BUT when you come down to the wire on it, a $500 Remington will shoot as nice and pattern as well as a $3000 weatherby, only difference is do you want to spend $3000 on something real pretty that you might scratch on a barbed wire fence or drop in the dirt?the remington may not be the prettiest thing in the gun safe, BUT it is well built and will last many generations of shooters IF its taken care of. same way i see VV mods.
furthermore the price on most e cigarette stuff varies so much from dealer to dealer it pays to shop around. do remeber that just because this dealer or that dealer is 50% CHEAPER on the exact same item as the other guy, it doesnt mean its junk or a knock off. its like sometime back, a dealer tried to tell me that because the item i bought was so much cheaper it had to be a knockoff. it isnt/wasnt, it was just more realistically priced. it seems like some vendors feel they must make their entire sales quota on one or two sales. take the evic as an example. ive seen them priced from $149 all the way down in price to $60 bucks. does that mean that because one is $60 its "junk" or a "knock off"? no, it means that the $60 dealer is pricing their items a little more realistically. do remeber, if a dealer can sell an item regularly for a lower price ( and in some cases MUCH MUCH lower) than the other guy, it goes to show you what a huge mark up there is on most of this stuff. it still all boils down to 3 volts is 3 volts and 5.2 watts is 5,2 watts no matter what mod you buy or how much you pay for it. if some of these dealers would get it in their head to mark their items a little more inexpensively, they just might find out what the concept of making it up on volume is all about. another example. ive seen the single ego bubble pack kits sell online for between $50 and $9.99 for the EXACT same item, exact packaging, exact everything , with the exception of the price. ive spoken to a couple of people and the same kit only costs about 5 bucks wholesale. now at 5 bucks wholesale and a retail of $10, the dealers making a 100% markup.....but $50? thats a FIVE HUNDRED PERCENT INCREASE from wholesale price......
if you go to Kanger and buy, say, 100 protanks, the price drops to around $8.50 a piece, plus shipping comes out to around $10.53 a tank ( and keep in mind thats figuring theu their posted public prices on their website. id bet dealers get them even cheaper still). buy more, the price goes down dramatically. most places sell them for around $18.75 a piece, thats almost 100% markup. how many more would a dealer sell if they sold them for , say $13.50 a piece or even $14 bucks a piece?...of course there are some dealers out there selling the protank that cheap, its just an example of how much a dealer makes on some of this stuff. ive seen mech mods on fasttech as low at $15 a pop, and dealers selling the exact same mec mod for almost 100 bucks...
i been giving it alot of thought whilst shopping around online for this stuff, and i think that this winter im going to open up a web store and sell my stuff at a whopping 10% over cost+ flat rate priority shipping and carry just about everything on the market. i mean heck, if you have a decent inventory of items and price them realistically , provide fast shipping and good customer service, the customers will come, no doubt about that. already been in contact with a couple of manufacturers and got some info!

. however... It still works on my egos and I also get a resistance on my 510 ohm meter. Wassup with that?
