Also if you read this you'd know I have a tendency to double post lol. At any rate grab yalls pitchforks we bringing down a company tonight lol
But then again hey half of these may be good. They all are until they're not so I'm all for recommendations baby
YES!!!! All this nannying is making the human race stupider and weaker! When you try to protect people from themselves, THEY DON'T LEARN ANYTHING!
I learned to ride a bike because I was tired of scraped knees from falling off it! And I didn't need no stinkin helmet! (kneepads would have been nice though

Really?
How about this...
If people don't flock to buy cheap garbage in droves, the market for cheap garbage wouldn't flourish?
I don't need no stinking nanny.
And I damn sure don't need you telling my nanny what I'm allowed to buy.
This is the problem with this society. The more complacent (stupid) we get with "protecting" the consumer, the more the consumer needs protecting.
30 yrs ago, you got your finger caught in a sprocket, you didn't put it there again. Witnesses learned without having to repeat the process.
Now... finger in sprocket? Build room around sprocket with dead bolts on the doors...
IE... nobody learns
Or better yet... let idiots do what they please and see if we can't continue to improve on human intelligence by natural selection.
Oof...

We had UL certifications 30 years ago.
UL certification is not Nanny state, it is just forcing manufacturers to make safer products.
I use mech mods and unregulated boxes.... I own at least 30, but haven't counted recently. They are perfect. I have never had issues with any of them that I couldn't easily fix myself.
But it is frowned upon to recommend that stuff to new vapers here, because we need to assume that anybody new to vaping could possibly be stupid.

My point is that industry will NOT regulate itself. That has been proven over and over for centuries.
Well I also happen to know what the standards for getting UL certification for electronics is. I have worked with Xerox, Intel, IBM, and several others. I am currently working for a data storage and management firm for legal data. To get UL certs you have to be able to plug it in. It must run a steady voltage and current for a period of time (last I checked three years ago it was 96 hours). With out any kind of issue. Oh and UL is a privet origination not government. ANIS is the gov standards.
You're absolutely right. Reverse Darwinism. The Nanny State is causing survival of the weakest. Which makes the human species more susceptible to extinction.YES!!!!

Idiocracy.
I watched that movie thinking it was going to be funny. It terrified me, because I saw the truth in it.

Amazing how that works sometimes. I've had that experience with a few movies
The Irony.
UL is an example of industry regulating itself.
Demanding their certs be mandated is nanny state garbage.

One of the main commentators on this thread was just recommending the Istick 50 to a newbie without saying anything about the issues disused here. I just feel this is so irresponsible. Even when I tried telling them to buy it from Eleaf if they decided to get one he says they're replacing them all and handling the situation so well. Then said nobody got hurt. There's no way you can say that when the old faulty stock is still being sold. Insanity
Yeah, I'm right there with you. "It's probably not one of the ones that catches on fire" should never be part of a recommendation.
Thanks. It was my second choice. I guess my first was already in use or something. It was Col. Custard ΩLove the new "handle"...
