    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    Hi nancy! :wub: I can agree with that, however, at the price point one can not really go wrong with a genuine JoyEtech eGo C Twist. It's a heck of a lot easier to endorse that over a product that costs 10x as much. It's probably the best place for newbies to start in the present day. You...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    And like I said, how many people point to the superior durability as a buying point and then don't put their money where their mouth is and not get the warranty. I know if I bought a provari I'd get it, so I am not faulting it. I'd do it because I'd be so over budget that I couldn't afford to...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    I appreciate that. I put a LOT of work into the Vaper's Handbook and addressing noobs on almost a daily basis, so thank you. What really upsets me is when fanboys in opposition to my beliefs come 1 star my blog because they didn't like what I said. Address me in the thread, don't come terrorize...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    Exactly, you already had almost everything. If you don't, or you want a less than perfect device, it's $250+. Why would you spend that kind of money to go halfway? That's my question. The differences you mentioned were what put it closer to $250 than $280 (if you get the warranty, battery...

    NAE: I can't help but feel slightly responsible for the epic journal entry sizes. Sorry Kia. :) At least we've had a good read up to this point. I am going to bump this thread right now and I will repost it in the contest thread for some last minute entries. Edit: Mattiem the shifty-eyed...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    The Slap Yo' Mama tool huh? You're a carto tanker then? I am thinking about trying it since I still use my cartos sometimes (sans tank) to see what all the fuss is about, but I do despise the Bogegate situation. As I have said numerous times before my Boges are 7 months old by now and running...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    As the oldschool rappers of the late 80's would say, word. It is for this exact reason that I am good friends with Tim Campbell of Vaporbeast. He was a product developer before he started Vaporbeast and he came up with a (semi) well-known product that donates to charity called the Doody...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    I saw a guy on youtube done nearly burned his leg off doing that and carrying it around in his pocket. He made his own DIY stacked mod though. It wasn't a SB. Word on the street is that the Kick has an amperage limit which doesn't give it the full range (I'm sorry I can't find the exact...

    Not what my eyes and the old taster tell me. My experience with a Twist and a KGO. It's 4.18 guaranteed. Under different loads it's closer to 4. See for yourself. hoosierecigsupply.com 1100mAh eGo battery whips AW 18650 IMR - YouTube and here for more clarity on this: SLB Ego voltage...

    And if you haven't figured it out by now Vapoor Eyes Er is the nicest guy you will ever meet. I've seen him send batteries to total strangers in need. Sup squirrely?

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    Counterfeiting is a way of life in China. I wrote a whole article on it in my blog. It's so bad. That is the worst "Provari" I have ever seen lol - it's only $900 for 30 (the minimum order), at least 2 weeks boat ride before it even hits the shores and a parcel service (such as DHL) gets its...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    The OP is confused clearly as they are asking for help and all over the place. There is nothing to not like about the Twist except that it's not a Provari. :) I never attacked you personally, I was just letting the audience at home know that your estimate of the price is incorrect. A REAL...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    No, showing a price of $160 when you need all the things that come with it and then nickel and diming the customer on what SHOULD be standard for what is often considered the best APV on the market to raise the price $100+ over sticker IS a valid point. It should be noted that Vaporbeast...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    I will look into it, thanks. I like to read stuff like this to add to my blog. In any case, if you are right, 20% is better than 1.6% by many times... Edit: Okay I just looked into it. The AJPM (first link) study was an anonymous internet poll = not science. The second was done with disposables...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    It's really not. It's $250-285 once you buy 2 batteries (even more for 3), end cap to fit 18650s, charger, warranty, and also extra for any other color than blah silver satin, and extra for a blue led. Go ahead, add it up. That 160 is to get you in the door. No one in their right minds would...

    About to pull my hair out picking a pv mod.

    There's this myth going around that more voltage is better for everything. This simply is untrue. When you get a variable voltage PV you'll find that you aren't pushing the limits all the time in most cases. I started with a 4.2v PV (The KGO) and when I got a Twist I went DOWN to 3.8v where most...
