    New York Magazine Has it's Say...

    There are a few good comments on the article as well. But WHO is this electricman? Pops up everywhere. Clearly has too much time, an obsession, and an axe to grind. :-) Ande

    expensive mods

    Actually it's more like comparing a toyota to a refrigerator. ;-) Totally different purpose devices. One of the things for me- I'm hard on things. I CAN build, in my study, a 3.7 volt mod that will, in theory, hit about the same as a Precise. It's gonna break, though. I've never owned a...

    expensive mods

    Ummm...no. Not crediting mod builders with building the batteries. But I still haven't seen the flashlight with the button that takes 3.7, or 5, or 6.4, or 7.2 volts without oxidizing, without BREAKING, for 1000 button presses. Let alone the many many many thousands of button presses we expect...

    expensive mods

    Value is an abstract concept. My ecigs are ALL worth what I paid for them. (I'm NOT smoking.) Price, on the other hand, is just a market construct. Things cost what people will pay for them. If people will pay enough to justify what goes into making them, then things are sold. If people...

    The ultramax was the only mod the TSA questioned

    I've flown far too much in my life, and for getting hassled by security, Houston is one of the worst airports in the world. That said, as long as you're polite and patient with the TSA, it's usually just a case of hassle you, ask some really dumb questions, ask the same questions again, and...

    New e-cigarette tax bill - join Popvox and oppose it

    Wish I lived in your area- I want to trick or treat at your house! But seriously- this bill is what it is: An attack on alternatives to smoking. The party line appears to be abstinence or MAXIMUM health damage. :-( Ande

    Trigger pulled

    Couldn't decide- got both. :-) If the RES works for me the way it sounds like it works for others, I'm hoping it'll be my main vape. (I mostly drip at present, so it seems like it may suit me.) But I wanted to be able to use it with other attachments and cartotanks as well. How come it isn't...

    Trigger pulled

    My new Ultramax has been purchased. :-) I've been vacilating on a mod buy for a while, and this just looks...very me. I've heard that they tarnish fairly easily, so I was hesitant. BUt then I saw a photo of a tarnished one in the classifieds, and frankly, it looks badass. Nothing wrong with a...

    Need help to choose a mod!!!

    Do you need to know the voltage? The display just seems like a waste of battery to me. (admittedly a small one.) If it's not hot enough, turn it up. If it's burnt, turn it down. When it's just right, vape on. I don't know the temperature of the burners on my stovetop, either. But I can...

    Best Mod Value - CGTS, Megalodon, or Silver Bullet?

    In terms of value, I'm gonna agree that the SB is a good price for what's reputedly a great PP. The GGTS is reputedly a wonderful PV, but you pay for it. The Don is in the middle- not as cheap as the SB, but pretty close. Not as luxurious or flexible as the GGTS, but close. I'm gonna say...

    new & LOST on the RES part

    Semi-weird ultramax question- does the Kit (advanced) work only with RES, or could I also use it as a regular batt mod on other tanks and things. I'd like to try RES, but have a few other options that I'd also like to use on my next mod. Another way of asking, I guess- do the RES kits also...

    Best Mod Value - CGTS, Megalodon, or Silver Bullet?

    That one is on my list- probably more like a P+18500 or 18650 (When it comes out.) I'd like some input from precise owners on that- there's always some variation in battery dimensions between different versions of the "same" battery. Unfortunate but true. Where I live, I probably won't be...

    What's up with these batteries?

    BUt no matter the brand, this much you can be sure of: In a cheaper cig-looking ecig, the majority of the "white part" is occupied by the battery, much larger than a watch battery. And there's no way to replace the "battery" part, other than replacing the whole unit. My advice, frankly...

    E-cigs an Unethical Business? [RIT University News]

    Another thought- he KEPT the $11,000, right? Ethical my sweet patootie. Even taking his premise, that ecigs are unethical, his behaviour is even more unethical. IF you make a pile of cash doing something unethical, and then stop doing it after you've got a nice little nest egg... You are not...

    Best Mod Value - CGTS, Megalodon, or Silver Bullet?

    Buzz pro is on my want list. :-) BUT...for the next mod...I'm hesitant. The point of "all-mechanical" is that it doesnt' need complicated maintenance. (Read: Maintenance I cannot do.) If you read the notcigs forum, there are SO many references to how good the guy is about dealing with...

    E-cigs an Unethical Business? [RIT University News]

    Screwed UP. Not to put too fine a point on it, but is this what passes for ETHICAL business these days??? IF you believe that Ecigs are "unethical," (though I believe the opposite), how can you believe that an award winning "ethical" business practice is...to distribute them for a while...

    Best Mod Value - CGTS, Megalodon, or Silver Bullet?

    I've thought of getting a GGTS for a while- a friend has one, and it IS good. Really solid, well made. But the problem with calling it the "best" mechanical mod is...we're all different. The button on the SS GGTS just feels...to light for my taste, too small, too flimsy-feeling. (It ISN'T...

    Bottom Switches: the good, the bad and the ugly...

    If for some reason, usually related to a map tank or CE2, you prefer to keep your PV upright when not in use, a bottom mounted button is harder to stand it up on. (I like end-buttons. But if they don't lock, they drive me crazy.) Ande

    The Mark-T Infinity Atomiser - Coming soon to Cloud9Vaping!

    Right you are, of course. Being so far "out here" makes it hard, though. I won't actually run out, as there are local suppliers I can buy from, but the prices hurt. (things are heavily taxed here.) Shipping ain't cheap either, though, so I always wind up making largeish orders when I...

    The Mark-T Infinity Atomiser - Coming soon to Cloud9Vaping!

    I'm sweating here- ordering from overseas is pretty expensive round these parts, and it takes a while for things to arrive. I WANT a MarkT Infinity. But I'm running out of gear, and if I don't order something from somebody soon, am facing the danger of running out of something. Please get them...
