    The (polite) Clone/Authentic discussion! :D

    While I agree with the lack of ground breaking gear in the mech mod arena I disagree when it comes to RDAs as well as regulated devices but I'm sure you would agree with that. To me the best advancement, other than higher wattage, has been the cyclopse AFC caps. As a lung hitter those things...

    The (polite) Clone/Authentic discussion! :D

    Hmmm, interesting question. I can honestly say that many if not most of the clone RDAs I have I bought because I could not find the authentic in stock anywhere at any price. To that point, if there was better availability I would often if not always buy the authentic even though it is higher...

    The (polite) Clone/Authentic discussion! :D

    Funny how we had the same reactions to many of the same pieces of gear. I just broke out my Trident after I posted that and again thought, "meh, it's not all that" but again could just be because of expectations. I have been astounded by many clones though, the Stellare and Quasars are both...

    The (polite) Clone/Authentic discussion! :D

    Like most here I have a mix of both authentic and clone gear and have found, at least on my adventure, there are dog rockets in both camps as well as gems. I have been lucky enough to find some really great clones in both mods and RDAs (the EHPro EA mod, Quasar, Stillare as examples) but have...

    How often do you re-wick your RDA

    For me it's more of a weekly thing but I should try to do it more often I guess. I actually have an RM2 on one of my Reos that I will go weeks without rewicking and more than month before recoiling.

    This right here is for the Clone-user-haters

    Wow, that's super cool.

    Am I The Only One Vaping Tobacco Flavored Juice?

    I do enjoy a few sweet flavors from time to time but the majority of what I vape are bacco juices. I start every day with my DIY Desert Ship and then move on to other flavors later in the day. DIY Highway with a touch of DIY peach is always in one of my Reos, Boba's is in the other. Always...

    Is a REO or PROVARI really THAT good? 3rd 'smoke FREE' anniversary coming up!

    Can't imagine you could go wrong with either but as others have pointed out they are designed for very different vaping styles. If you only use tanks and can't see yourself ever using anything other than a tank, stick with a Provari. If though, on the other hand, you use any RDAs or have ever...

    New Shop in my area and need advice

    Wasn't directed at you at all, sorry for giving that impression. I just noticed there were several posts where people were saying they go in with a certain attitude and I understand why. Vape vendors still play in what I'd call a wild west environment with few restrictions other than state and...

    What would you do?

    I generally only vape where I used to smoke but, in your case, I'd probably stealth vape in my room.

    I made my own coil!!!

    Congrats Bamani, that's great! Sounds like you're off to a good start and working with reasonable resistance levels which is very good. Is the build a dual-coil? The reason I ask is that 12 wraps around a Qtip with 32ga my guess is that you'd end up with something in the 2.0ohm range. What...

    New Shop in my area and need advice

    I'm a bit confused by this thread honestly. You are a consumer, we all are. You go into local B&Ms knowing you will pay more than you will for the same item online but I for one am willing to do so, within in reason, to try and keep good shops around. You can tell a bad shop a mile away; they...

    clone vs Authentic: The Real Discussion

    Um, yes in many cases they certainly are trying to be even down to the logos and fake seriel numbers. Absolutely. I keep seeing people talking about the modder "gouging" us with pricing. Isn't possible that one of the reasons they have to set prices where they do is because they know they...

    Kayfuns lost their fun

    Hey Bad, do you use a mixture of cotton and rayon for your KFL wick set up? Sounds like almost a reverse fluff method, interesting. Would love to know how you set that nest up.

    Kayfuns lost their fun

    Ooooh...you dare question the Baditude? (queue the thunder and lightning) I've not tried the nest method in my KFL+ but honestly I've been in a vaping phase that has put that topper in a drawer for the last three months or so. It's just so cold and unloving.

    Why nicotine?

    I get that response from some of my family too Gitum, they don't understand that while vaping still delivers nicotine it does not deliver the some odd 4,000 other chemicals found in cigs. Sigh... Best way to position it is that vaping is a "reduced harm alternative".

    Help...resistance rising!

    Clean the contacts really well too, we tend to overlook those easy fixes.

    clone vs Authentic: The Real Discussion

    BTW, the biggest culprit of margin gouging is not with hardware but rather with the juice we buy. None of us complain about speding anwhere from $5-20 for a 15ml bottle but I assure you the markup there would astound you. Again, just sayin'.

    clone vs Authentic: The Real Discussion

    Go try to buy an authentic mod somewhere. The exact one you want. Right now. You can't. Authentic modders are simply taking advantage of a spike in interest to the hobby. This has been a driver for me in buying many clone RDAs, I get your point here. You sell 1,000 rare authentics and make...
