Let me preface this review by saying I am doing this as a way to give back to all the people who have helped me find this product and have given sage advice/encouragement along the way. This is my way of giving back to the community and saying thank you for all your help/support. I don't work for or am paid by ECI in any way (just added disclaimer for GP) 
I recently came back to the e-cig world after a long hiatus. I started with cig-a-likes and they helped until the stress became overwhelming. I am working in a combat zone and getting mortared every day got me started smoking again. I got my Vapor King Storm 3 4 days ago and havent had a cigarette since!! Enough of the preface, lets get to the review:
The Vapor King Storm 3 is a product from Electronic Cigarettes Inc. It comes in the standard starter configurations ranging from $39.95 to $119.95. I purchased the midrange starter kit for $59.95. It shipped with 2 batteries, 2 Cleartomizers, a USB type charger and a plug with a USB connector. It was shipped in a cardboard box, well packed with foam inserts inside the box. The top part had the e-cigs, assembled and in plastic covers and below the top foam was the charger, a bottle with a syringe type top, a carrying pouch and an instruction booklet showing how to assemble, fill and charge the e-cig. The kit includes a free bottle of ejuce as well which is in its own box. I ordered an extra bottle so I had enough. This is what I believe is an E-Go clone, tank type e-cig. Shipping was fast. I ordered on 17 May and it came 9 days later (for those who think thats long, move to a combat zone and have stuff shipped through and APO). They shipped the product the day after I ordered.
Since this is my first tank type e-cig, I did in fact read the manual (strange for a male) and then proceeded to fill the clearto. I purchased this product with a 10ml bottle of ejuce (included in the kit) and got their cappuccino as I have always liked this juice. The batteries are already fully charged so I fired her up and the volume of vapor was impressive to someone who only used cig-a-likes in the past. The product doesnt leak in my pocket and had a rubber top for the mouthpiece to help keep it clean/protect it from breaking. This is a handsome device, flat black rubber coated battery, 7 color cleartos to choose from, I got the clear, and chrome accents. The volume of vapor easily mimics analogs and is satisfying to a long time smoker (40+ years). The tank and mouthpiece are plastic and the top twists off to fill. The mouthpiece has a metal band with the threads to screw to the clearto and a rubber o ring to keep it from leaking. It screws into a metal top on the clearto to keep the plastic from cracking. All in all this is a solid constructed e-cig and I would purchase it again. The only problem with the kit is that one of the cleartos has stopped working after only 3 days. I have ordered three more though and will order a replacement coil for the broken one.
As for the juice, as I stated, I like the cappuccino and theirs does not disappoint. It has hints of coffee and cream with a nice sweet ending. This is not an overly sweet juice as I dont like those. Their juice is a little more expensive than some other companies out there, $7.99 for a 10ml bottle, $19.95 for 30ml, but it is good so far. My personal all time favorite is Hilton from V4L (now called Hilltop) but I am a sucker for Hazelnut!!!
I hope this helps anyone who is thinking of purchasing this product and is on the fence either way. I am pleased with my purchase and have ordered more from this company. I have notified them of the clearto problem but their website says they are only guaranteed if DOA and mine worked for a little while before it died. They have a one year warrantee on their products and a 30 day no questions asked return policy on their products.
