    Thanks, I will do some more research and check those out as well.

    Looking to move up from my Sigelei zMax

    Oh bummer...would I be better off just splurging on a regular Provari? I admit to not having been on the forums in a while, so I'm not sure if that's still one of the better PVs. Considering that I've been using the same couple of zMaxes for a couple of years now, I think I've gotten my money's...

    Looking to move up from my Sigelei zMax

    I've been vaping for a few years with a Sigelei zMax. It was the first thing I upgraded to after eGo's. I just bought an Aspire Atlantis tank, not realizing that the zMax can't handle it, so now I am looking for a new setup. I am not looking to make my own coils or anything; I'm more of a plug...

    Sigelei Zmax V3 and V5 Telescopic: User's Group

    No, the caps from the blue one are larger on the outside and vice versa.

    Sigelei Zmax V3 and V5 Telescopic: User's Group

    Ah! The caps DO interchange! Maybe it's just a matter of one being aluminum and one something else? The blue one is definitely heavier than the Fasttech one. So the inner diameter is the same, the outer diameter is larger. (See why I come to these forums? All the smart people are here;) )

    Sigelei Zmax V3 and V5 Telescopic: User's Group

    Thanks. I'd pretty much come to the same conclusion. The blue one definitely feels like it's better quality!

    Sigelei Zmax V3 and V5 Telescopic: User's Group

    Hm. I don't have a decent ruler here at work to measure the diameters, but there is definitely a difference. Here's a picture of them side by side standing up: http://99shadows.com/images/20150324_122533.jpg I know the blue one has a different body design and that it's a rounded top, but...

    Sigelei Zmax V3 and V5 Telescopic: User's Group

    I am wondering if anyone else has noticed a quality difference in Zmax v5... I first had a v3 and had the problems with the lopsided display and the flukey button, but I loved the mod, so I bought a v5 from Fasttech last year. All's been fine until recently, when the display/power would...

    Where you started... To where you are now?

    A friend convinced me to give them a try. I read up on them a bit (not here) and started with a Volcano cigalike kit. I knew right away it wasn't going to work for me, so I moved up to an eGo-C kit about a week later. I was happy with those for a few weeks, tried an eGo Twist, then I got a...

    Do you see yourself quitting vaping?

    I quit smoking after 27 years, cold turkey, for 7 years. I started up again during a stressful time, saying I'd quit when the stressful situation was over. When the time came, I didn't really WANT to quit. Yes, it stunk; yes, it tasted horrible; but I actually enjoyed smoking and didn't want to...

    MVP iclear 30 youre crazy if you dont agree

    I actually like the iClear 30. I tried a Kanger ProTank and it was like sucking air, which I didn't like at all. I don't want anything rebuildable, other than having to buy replacement coils that I can just unscrew and switch out, haha! I recently got an iClear 30S and an iClear 30B. Tried the B...

    Looking for Apple.

    I second Mister-E's Absolute Apple. Their Pure Michigan (apple/strawberry mix) has been my No. 1 ADV for about a year. Can't get enough of it!

    I Have No Desire to Upgrade

    Not to mention, I'm helping my friend pick out the right kit for her dad, who wants nothing to do with anything other than something that looks like a cigarette, doesn't want to have to mess with juice, etc. And if he does use them to quit, it's likely he'll never "upgrade" to anything more than...

    I Have No Desire to Upgrade

    Nothing wrong with being happy with the basics! I used eGo's for about a year before I finally bought a VV/VW (zMax) just out of curiosity...and confusion over ohms lol (with the zMax, I don't have to worry about it, it adjusts to whatever I put on it). That said, when people ask me about...

    What are your smoker friends reactions to you vaping??

    I have converted 7 friends, including my friend's husband, who is now adding a vape shop to his mobile phone store:) My brother called it "gay" and he continues to use snus. I don't push. If people ask, I tell them about it. People who tell me the juice is full of chemicals, I tell them exactly...

    Anybody get it right the first time?

    I started with cigalikes then moved up to eGo's the first week and an eGo Twist a month or so later. I used eGo's (the regular ones AND the Twist) for almost a year. Liking the variable voltage of the Twist and curious about variable wattage, I bought a zMax, and I'm hooked. I really don't...

    Using eCigs to Remain Smoke Free

    Ha, I can definitely relate to your coming to the conclusion that you just like to smoke. That's me too. I smoked for 27 years, quit in 2004 (cold turkey), then started up again in 2011 (why, why, WHY?! I thought I could have "just one"--didn't work!). I knew I should quit again, and I knew I...
