    New FDA regulations and effect on DIY?

    Do the new rules potentially have an impact on our ability to buy the ingredients for DIY? I only live about 20 minutes from Wizard Labs and am wondering if I need to rent a UHaul and stock up for whatever time I have left on this planet?

    Griffin came

    I was excited to get my Griffin and bought an authentic one from an eBay seller in China (it looks like an authentic Geekvape at least) Upon opening, I noticed one of the velocity posts is loose and the tightening screwdriver is missing. Before returning and buying from a US seller, I am...

    Does anyone have info on these guys? i ordered some Grumpys Hooch, tracked it, and was ready to vape it and saw it was returned to sender as they apparently sent to the wrong address. Since then, emails are coming back and the website seems to be down, indicating either I am doing something...

    Finally found something besides AVE I love

    I'm a self confessed Bobas Bounty junkie and for 6 months, I have tried so many juices that I just put aside after reading great reviews, but not finding them something I would order or frequently finish. The only other juices I alternate are Gorilla Juice and Havana Gold with any frequency. I...

    Giving this a serious look. I'm currently using a Kayfun with cone and like the look, but am wondering how the Taifun GS fits with the smaller base diameter?

    Does this AW appear to be counterfeit

    Normally, I buy my AW batteries from RTD Vapor, who I see frequently used as a trusted vendor, as well as ProVape, which I have no doubt about. I was reading about counterfeit AW batteries and compared an 18650 that I had purchased off EBAY (I know!). I had this before becoming educated enough...

    Noalox

    So, I've always tried to treat my things well and follow the manufacturer's advice on maintainance. Because of this I used a small dab of noalox on the threads at the cap. my Provari is less than a month old, so I guess it was preventative maintainance or OCD. while the threads are still...

    Vape with a cold

    I've had a cold for a few days with mostly congestion and haven't been able to stop vaping. Aside from not really being able to taste much, I'm wondering if anyone know of any harm?

    Tatroe Kayfun cone

    I was having a hard time finding Provari Kayfun rings in stock in the US, except for the Tatroe cone. while it is about 1mm off a completely flush fit, I feel it was an improvement.

    Vape shops popping up everywhere.

    I'm not sure if this is global, but in Central Florida, it seems like every week there is a new shop opening. Just today, I stopped at the grocery store and one of the empty storefronts became a vape shop which had some nice mech mods and tanks, as well as the normal selection of ejuice I see...

    Battery question

    I'm a few days into my Provari ownership and haven't touched my MVP since as I am very impressed with the Provari. My experience with batteries has been limited to mechs, where I changed out 16500s quite frequently and charged the MVP every 2 days and never worried, even with heavy vaping. I...

    Provari with Russian 91 question

    After much research, I am going with the Provari over the Semovar. For me, the Semovar wins on looks as far as matching with the Kayfun and Russian, and possibly on some features, but Provari is getting my order due to the proven quality and customer service record, which is most important. I...

    about to buy Provari, quick ?

    I am fairly positive I am getting a Provari. I am using a MVP and used to long battery life which is my only concern as I am not used to doing anything but picking up and going. I am curious as to whether it is advisable to get the cap so I can use 18650 batteries? Lastly, is the mini worth...

    Russian 91 problem

    After liking my Kayfun clone so much, I went ahead and got a Russian 91 although much is the same, I noticed the deck where the positive screw goes was moving. after taking off the center pin, there is a screw that comes out and allows you to tighten up the deck. After doing this, the center...

    Russian 91 or Hcigar Kayfun clone

    After a second week on my Tobeco kayfun clone, I am so impressed I am looking for a second tank. While I have had no problem on my Tobeco, the whistling is the only minor annoyance that was corrected by taking out the af screw. I am seeing reviews that the Hcigar clone is slightly better or...
