Yeah the straight up TFV8 is huge (As opposed to the baby beast). I have an authentic. Not a big fan of that RBA or tank (TFV8) It is another leak magnet for me though I know people it works beautifully for. FYI I dont remember which tank it is but there is a Sense tank that takes the same coils/RBA. I want to say the Blaze or something like that. I picked one up 2nd hand at the local vape shop in 2016. Never use it. Same problem with leaking for me.
I don't have any smoke tanks other than this clone, I'll have to see if it leaks too. I was shocked how big the RBA is.

Very similar beginning . . . Found ECF . . . 1st purchase Halo G6 . . . And then, thankfully, found Smokeless Image Volt - less expensive for the same product (KR808) just different name and Great a customer service. More importantly, found many ECF Friends in the excellent community threads. . . . Just Sayin' . . . :thumbs:
Yep me too, quit smoking on a Halo G6 and Tribeca :) We sure were persistent to quit on those cig a likes! I still have some Volt cartos in my Vintage Vape box.

All my on-line vape purchase confirmations and receipts are properly filed. Priorities, ya know.

My first purchase was from Halo. I found ECF the day after it arrived. :oops:

Rossumz, you inspired me to look for my first purchase(s). My very first was from a guy named Shawn whose company (still) is Zeecigs.



I had watched several of his videos and decided that I needed an e-cig case. Of course, I DID order a couple of 510 eGo kits that same day (January 10, 2011).

I'm not entirely sure if this was the case, but maybe.

That day I also order two of these, from Vicki at Cignot.

I was trying to clean up some emails at work. I have almost 8,000 in my inbox. :blink:
I have all of my email dating back to the early 90's... currently 103,680 emails as of this morning (not including my gmail accounts). lmao... but during that time I had over 1,000 websites and at least 30+ had active email accounts.

LOL... I just found one of mine like that and decided to make use of it and toss a bunch of small pod systems I had into it.

How did you keep track of it all!? I'm impressed

I still use the case too. Sits on my home desk, and I can throw it in the briefcase if I need to rebuild at the office, or when I travel.

But I didn't buy it. Confiscated from my teenage son, before I vaped.

I loved those eGo cases, still have them :)

I still have quite a few new ones in several sizes and colors. Even the smaller ones will hold an iStick 20W or 30W, a small tank (PT2 or 3 Mini, K1, etc.) and a 10mL bottle of eliquid. I use one of the small ones, too, for rebuilding supplies and tools when I go on trips.

I was trying to clean up some emails at work. I have almost 8,000 in my inbox. :blink: I was deleting some email directories and found my very first ecig purchase from July 2012. It was for eversmoke and they had cigalikes with flavored cartridges and a monthly subscription. They only lasted a few minutes and then I found ECF and realized there were much better choices. I ended up sending it all back for a refund and promptly bought an ego. :lol:

I keep all my vaping emails in a separate directory. Everything I ever bought except for the first batch of Egos and some small bottles of china juice that I picked up at a local headshop. There's 627 emails in there now. Lots of duplicates though, delivery notifications and so forth. It's nice to be able to check them sometimes to see when I got something or check how much I paid.

Almost all the emails I get these days are from people wanting to sell me stuff, a lot of them are for vaping gear. I feel like an old hermit sitting in a cave guarding what's left of my hard earned gold. And the vultures are gathered outside figuring out how to get it away from me before I croak.

Mah quitting tank was the N2. I SWEAR I will never knock that sucker ,even though Aspire Tina was ENTIRELY upset with my review of the Plexus and N2S even though I was ENTIRELY honest about the N2S's VIRTUES even if it had a few liabilities. IDK what I did wrong, other than say they should market it with the mesh coil because it was awesome.

Still debating theta Talifum/Aspire N2 coil tank? It seems like such an odd pairing but the N2S did not really take off. Shame. .It really is like the Nautilus SHOULD be.

I'm considering it. LOL.

Also came to say , "YOU All are not stocked yet? How many pages?" and here I am considering another tank,.

This thread is DANGEROUS,

Lots of directories. lol When I had over 30 email accounts the amount of daily spam I had was overwhelming, usually several hundred spam emails per day. I ended up using a separate anit-spam program to pre-filter things and it still took quite awhile to get through my emails.

I am realizing I really like drop in coil tanks. I don't mind rebuilding but I still like the ease of drop in coils :) I am so glad I bought a bunch of coils on sale :) I don't mind rebuilding drop in coils either as long as they are fairly easy to do.

The EXO-S fits the Ello tank (ello regular, not sure about the other ello models) but the problem is that the rubber oring seal for the glass covers up/seals up the wick holes completely. The solution is to get a drill or a manual nibbler tool and extend the wick holes of the RBA up into the chamber of the RBA, past the seal. How large you make this hole depends on the thickness of the juices you use.

I loved those eGo cases, still have them :)


Me too. I have a good many of them and I'm always on the look-out to buy more of the large ones if the price is right. They can be used to store and transport small mods, tanks, batteries, etc. They aren't just for eGos and cigalikes.

I know this isn't going to be popular with a lot of people as the USPS seems to largely have a bad reputation in the USA in general.

But I have to make a shout-out to my local USPS. They are very good at helping me when I have a problem with a package (sending or receiving).

My latest problem was with a FT order. After tracking showed it reached US customs, it went to a "metro" distribution center. Then it showed "moving through the USPS network and on it's way to it's destination". Was like that for 12 days. The tracking was also doing weird things like showing expected delivery dates that kept on dropping or changing. Usually, after tracking shows it reached US Customs, it's delivered to me in about 4-7 days.

So I put in a request through USPS.com, asking where the package is.

The same day, I got a call from someone at my local PO about it. They weren't much help because they still hadn't investigated, just wanted to tell me they are working on it.

2 days later I got another call from the same guy, still not much help but was calling to say they are still working on it and gave me some tracking information (yes, they have tracking data that doesn't always show on the consumer end). Made me feel like things were getting done.

The next day (yesterday), got a call from a supervisor telling me that he reached out to the PO where it was last scanned (not showing on the tracking on my end) and are waiting to hear back. But also told me that he hopes it's not a case where the label was destroyed (insinuating that there would be little to nothing they could do). Fingers-crossed.

Today, I looked at the tracking and lo and behold the package is now found/unstuck and reached my regional DC, about 5 miles from my local PO! No expected delivery date showing, but I expect it will be delivered tomorrow. It was scanned at the DC at 7am this morning, which I suppose was too late to get on a truck. No biggie. Not worried unless it's not delivered tomorrow. My only worry is that the package is all mangled up with missing items, but I'll just have to wait and see.

This isn't the first time my local PO has helped me out with sending or receiving issues. It really comes down to your local PO. I happen to have a very good one (for the most part).

Just a FYI/WARNING to everyone

Bank just stopped 2 fraudulent transactions on my card and I am hearing rumors of a breach at Nicotine River. Weather mine came from there or from the big data break a few months ago I do not know.

Watch your transaction histories folks. Sometimes it can be MONTHS before someone tries to use your stolen info.

Up to now I avoided tanks because I don't like glass and my SV rda's were getting the job done. But an MTL tank with 4+ ml capacity is an option I might want in the future. The Berserker 24mm has not leaked a drop so far and there is an accessory kit with a PEI replacement tank for the 4.5 ml option. These are reasonably priced from FT, not bargain priced. So, 4.5 ml capacity, MTL, PEI tank checks the boxes for me.

$12.66 Berserker MTL Styled RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 4.5/2ml / stainless steel / 24mm diameter at FastTech - Free Shipping
