You should open your own shop,then I guess that would be time consuming

Funny you should say that, I am just warming up to open a local shop. No internet shipping just serving the local community. I have a nephew that lives in Beijing China and he is checking out suppliers of hardware for me. He works for the State Department as a translator so he goes in and talks to the suppliers I find by asking questions of people already in the business. The juices I will make right here with all USA made ingredients and I have my eye on a deserted store that closed down last year for a store front. The way I see it this industry is just getting started and before there are too many taxes and regulations there's some money to be made. Here in the back woods of Virginia about 80% of the people smoke and wish they could quit. Most have never heard of vaping so I'm betting the chances of success are better than most start up businesses. Most folks around here don't even have a computer or credit cards so I figure having a cash business and doing a service to the community should help me get going. We are looking at May/June to pull the trigger.

Mostly it's for the Club, I am well taken care of. We have several businesses but I think this one will be a good money maker and we will have the girls from the club run the store which the locals will love. I kinda live in a different world than most folks, it's a good place but not for everyone. I would try to explain but for the most part people just don't get our way...

Officer when it gets right down to it,IMHO it doesn't matter whether other folks get our ways or not. Way I look at it if someone doesn't like us b/c of our ways its their problem not us. They don't have to live our lives,they haven't walked in our shoes,and they sure don't pay our bills. Guess what I'm trying to say is I have you people on this forum,I have my family,and I have my animals and I have God and that's all the support system I need.

Well said, I couldn't agree more. I tell that to people all the time just not so eloquently. :D

Good Morning Volties!

Coffee is made for anyone that would care to partake. :)

Y'all are verrry quiet this morning. I hope that everyone is doing well. I hope that those of you that were in the path of the nor'easter are alright. Awsum? How are things in New Jersey? Nightfell? Everyone okay?

Blues says that the brunt of the storm passed them by, so everything is okay there.

Good Morning All! Thanks for the coffee Rave. LOVE your paintings!

I have been scanning through the ECF forum for the past couple of days and now I'm curious about trying a variable voltage pv. Mainly I have been looking at possibly trying a Vision spinner. Because most of you are experienced vapers, I would like to get your opinions about this or any of the vv pv's. Do any of you have different pv's? If so, what, in your opinion, is best or is it even worth bothering with? Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love my SI X2's but... I'm curious. :unsure:

I almost feel like a traitor to SI for even thinking about this and I love their products. Thanks for any input.

We accept all questions here. I am a long time Volt user and I still have a few other pv's. There are many options, some expensive, and others are more reasonable. If you want a dependable vv device for under $30, the ego twist is a good option. Altsmoke sells them. I like fruity flavors so I don't go much over 3.8v on mine. Once the Volt X2-T3 comes out, my egos will be gathering dust or waiting for the next thing I want to try that isn't an 808.

Sitting down, facing forward.
Thanks for the coffee, Rave, a third cup was just what I needed. Been up since 5:30 cleaning sidewalks and cars so my wife could get to work and I could get to the saw bones for a 10,000 mile maintenance. Sorry to hear you're not feeling so hot, Konstantine.

Well, we got about 4" of snow from the storm and no damage that I can see at all. On the other hand my sister called from Toms River, much closer to the shore, and they lost power as did my son, Bricktown, and daughter, Jackson, who are also much closer to the shore. The last time my son never lost power while my sister and daughter were without power for about a week. At least my daughter has a generator, but it's not set up to run the heat, yet (on my to do list).

Thanks. Dependability is what I would want if I decide to try one. I did get a T3 and 901/ego adapter in the mail yesterday but haven't tried it yet with my manual X2. I only got one and a replacement head to try out but really I want to wait for SI's T3. I'm such an impatient person sometimes.

I just got this last week for similar reasons, I wanted to try a quality VV setup and I wanted the option of having a 510 threaded setup. I read nothing but good things over in the modders forum about the Lambo so I decided to go for it. I have only had it a few days and rather like the tanks, I'm still playing with the VV part so I'm not much of a resource on that just yet. It is a top shelf PV very well made and looks and works very well. I got the kit which is a bit spendy but you can get the basic unit for around $62.00. I have an old Ego VV I got off Craigs List but it is not so pretty and junk IMHO but I only paid 20 bucks for it and it doesn't take the 510 accessories. There seems to be much more stuff available in the 510 thread so that was one of the main reasons I went this route. I still love my X2s and use them on the Bike always but I love to buy new toys.
