    Newbie here, have a few questions

    Blu is owned now by Lorillard - the company that makes Kent and Newport cigarettes. Please avoid them at all costs and do not support Big Tobacco's infiltration into the ecig market. They've made more than enough money as death dealers. If you have any questions that linger despite the many...

    Another Newb

    You may find that due to the positioning of T2 Kangers that the drip tip heats up and burns your lips. If this bothers you then try the E1-V from DiscountVapers.com. It is superior to the T2 Kanger, and the Vivi Nova Mini in many ways. If you care to see these three clearomizer mini tanks in...

    Dumb things you've done with your e-cigs?

    I've dropped it more times than I care to relate. Each time was not intentional and when I thought it was the last possible thing that could happen. The latest and worst thing I've done is I took a paperclip and spun it around the center post in the juice well of my KGO battery (my backup) and...

    Starter upgrade

    Save yourself a lot of heartache and pain. The eGo Twist is a battery that ALL vapers should have in your arsenal. The variable voltage it offers was previously only offered to those willing to spend LARGE amounts of money and now it can be yours for less than $30 per battery. The amount of...

    A world of knock offs

    Conformité Européenne. It's French for European Conformity. I like China Export better though LOL. Yeah I didn't mention that other marking because it would be hard to see in the tiny pictures that are posted on the vendors websites whereas the bright white lettering and the logo on the bottom...

    Comment by 'ShogaNinja' in 'The Vaper's Handbook'

    Thanks for the comment, and you are very welcome. Like I said before, this is a gift and I am giving it to all vaperkind. I want to be clear in my mission though, so please bear with me. I never suggested that WEP was the most secure. I was suggesting that it was better than nothing, what many...

    Comment by 'ShogaNinja' in 'The Vaper's Handbook'

    China - The Land of Knockoffs, and what it means for the E-Cigarette Business: I recently bought another eGo Twist after seeing the insides of many batteries and finding that many of them use the same parts, I decided to save a few bucks and get a knockoff. The voltage potentiometer knob on the...

    A world of knock offs

    There is a big myth going around that is fueled by ignorance in batteries. People fear the unknown. Before I attempted using a KGO charger on an eGo Twist I watched a buddy of mine go out and get the "official charger". I looked at it and it's the exact same as mine down to every last number and...

    A world of knock offs

    I wish you luck on your quest. Now I will paint you all a picture of China, and the ecig business in America: I have a buddy from China and they spend their days knocking things off and trying to outsell each other. A brand name to them is a means to an end. They are all about outproducing and...

    A world of knock offs

    You should still check out Orobas. Maybe you guys can trade tips. She's all about her zebra sales. They look pretty good too! Yeah that iHybrid you won. How do you like it? How's it treating you? (feel free to PM this to me so we don't derail this thread)

    A world of knock offs

    Well we learn something new every day, and unfortunately this time I put my money where my mouth was and got burned. I thought I'd correct my previous statements (which were 90% true) that knockoffs were made of the same stuff. It's the important things that count, like the voltage...

    A world of knock offs

    What are you talking about? If you look at my profile you will see that me and NancyR are friends and frequently correspond via PM. She doesn't mind that I called her "sweets", do you Nancy? Orobas is also a friend of mine although I don't remember if I added her yet to my list. SL =...

    A world of knock offs

    You can find that information on battery university. "In our test, the expected capacity loss of Li-ion batteries was uniform over the 250 cycles and the batteries performed as expected." That's where you got that number. In fact the Depth of Discharge (DoD) is the main factor that controls...

    A world of knock offs

    DiscountVapers.com has the best deal on legitimate Joyetech eGo C Twist replacement batteries right now. If any of you are considering getting one (I think all vapers should have a Twist in their arsenal) just realize that your old charger (if it's a 510 usb (with our without wall plug adapter))...

    A world of knock offs

    Thanks, sweets. I hope life is treating you well. I wanted to tell you there is another lady here on ECF named Orobas and she makes zebras to sell on SL. You two should hook up and troll. To clarify my position on this matter (respectfully): I don't read about that stuff, I own both. I am...

    A world of knock offs

    This is just my opinion based on real life experience, and a lot of research. I would avoid KGO for three reasons, two of which I mentioned earlier, but I guess I can repeat. 1: The airflow is terrible on a KGO. The Stardust is almost impossible to vape on with a KGO. 2: They are fragile and...

    A world of knock offs

    I just came here to tell people that I have seen the inside of a number of eGo knockoffs and most times they are the same, even down to the Joye brand battery (there are youtube vids on this fact if you care to look). Trusting in that I recently attempted to save a few bucks and get a knockoff...

    A world of knock offs

    I disagree NancyR, friend. The KGO has a terrible airhole system that makes it utterly incompatible with Stardusts (not that it matters because I hate stardusts). The other problem is the centerpost connection is incredibly fragile. I broke mine when I was cleaning it out with a paperclip. I...

    What am I doing wrong?

    What is the mah rating of the batteries? Can you give us a link to where you got them from? Most batteries range from 2-4 hours, depending on the mah rating, and they usually come about half charged. If a battery is completely dead (below 2.2v I believe the number is) then it will never work...
