    Hardest hitting China clone; out of the box

    That elititst bull..... attitude about mods and RBA's is what turns me off about this place. Hell, I'm surprised no one's fighting over stupid stuff like lanyards and cases. I'm currently using a Provari and K-100 (kicked)... at the same wattage with the same tank/clearo they hit the same...

    How Can You Tell Which Flavor Liquid Is In Each Of Your Clearomizers?

    No doubt. I just screw one in and ask myself "wonder what this is?". After a few hits, I figure it out LOL.

    suggestion on decent/cheap clearos?

    I like the Kanger EVOD. The mini Vivi Nova (and the Discount Vapors-branded version) is OK. Going to get an iClear 16 very soon... Also, take a look at the CE4 (what some call the "stardust").

    Kanger Protank vs Vapeonly BCC

    Here's my $.02, for what little that's worth... and because I can, I'm using bullet points (take that, anti-gun people!): -I didn't like the Protank. I own a SS Ming tip and multiple chromes, but as hard as I try I can't like that metalic taste. Couldn't get rid of it after rinsing in...

    Which ejuices are really safe?

    Very well said. There's this thing some people don't realize called "manufacturing tolerances"... On a small scale, like a one-person shop, those can be easily eliminated. On a large scale, they're allowed, especially if we're talking about companies looking to make big profits. Anything...

    What are the top mechanical mods?

    A lack of patent protection comes to mind. EDIT: "Every mod I named can be found in the classies on a somewhat regular basis. As for the GUS vs the Paps, I listed them as I did because of quality and reputation. They are different is very subtle ways in the design of the switch. Why would a...

    Michigan residents

    I only know of KVS (Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids) and EcigBestSave (Three Rivers)... nothing in the DET area. Great Lakes Vapor may be your closest bet.

    E-Cigarettes Have A Coolness Problem

    I'm still PO'd that I was "dark and brooding" before that whole Twihard crap came along... I was an innovator!!! :D Never did get any residuals from it, though... LOL Anyway: My friends and I have basically started a revolution where we work. We were the first to switch to ecigs. People...

    I'm seeing e-cig commercials earlier in the day now....

    Me, too. I work 2nd shift and have seen that same commercial at about noonish.

    Great TV advertisement for e-cigs

    I don't know how people feel about the Blu ecigs, but the commercial they play (with Stephen Dorf... I think that's how you spell it) in the States is at least a good start. The more education we can get out the better.

    What's Your Best DIY Recipe

    Giving a recipe and a bump: Paradise Strawberry- 8% Melon- 8% Pretty simple, really. I use TFA flavors mostly, but don't hesitate to use others.

    Fully Mechanical Switch For the Bombshell Stinger

    Looks good to me, and the different color of the button makes it unique. I'm not much of an electrician... how does it work? The two posts is the connection between the 510 (top) and battery (bottom), but how does the switch and screw interact? In the link it says the screw completes the...

    Mechanical mods, what is the point?

    Currently own three PV's: 1. A black Provari w/blue LED 2. The Bamboo/Vamo v. 2, with the brass body 3. A 5v-regulated "mechanical" mod that a friend machined out of 6061 aluminum. And before the complainers start, I know it isn't a true mechanical- that's why I used quotation marks. All...

    Giving a bump, because someone must know something here and can help.

    Why are mechanical mods so expensive?

    In my opinion, you're paying for what a person feels their craftsmanship is worth. I have a very nice 5v-regulated (which was done at a special request... the others don't have that) mechanical mod that a friend made. It was lathed out of 6061 aluminum, has the 510 connector, a <$2 regulator...

    Vivi Nova (and / or Vamo???) problem. What's going on here?

    I'm having the same problem as OP. I have two regular Nova's and a mini, all with factory heads (I've had 2 5pks I've been plowing through, trying to figure out a solution). They work fantastic on my ProVari, but don't work on my Vamo. The only thing I can get to work on that is cartos. If I...

    American E-Liquid Manufacturers' Standards Association launches

    I have to agree... though I could care less if I get banned from an internet forum- it definitely wouldn't be the first time and likely won't be the last. I don't have that "oh my gosh, I just got banned from <insert internet forum's name>! whatever shall I do?" mentality. If you don't like...
