Well, I've been here since August of 2009 and was on a serious quest to find something that worked properly for me. Although many of these have gone bye-bye in The Classies, I have used:

801's
510's (standard atomizer with virtually every atty mod, atty debridged for dripping, carto, tank, clearos, pump carts, smart carts, G3's, etc., so on),
eGo's, eGo-C, eGo-T, eGo mini's, eGo-W (with standard atomizer, cartos, various tanks, Giantomizers, Mini Vivi Nova, DCT, & prolly others),
DSE 901's,
DSE 601 Pipe (for late husband),
KR-808-D's,
DSE 701 Gemini's,
Leo's (standard atty, tank, clearo, and cartos),
Lea's,
GoGo's,
XL3,
Greensound SOLE eLips,
Silver Bullet,

- and finally, what I use darn near all the time -

Volt (65's, 78's, and X2's with cartos, clearos, CE3's & Nano's)

Waving the white flag and in full retreat... Damn!

I just looked at the VG website and boy did they have nice eGo twists. If I decide to try it, this will be the place. Gorgeous and very unique. What can I say... I'm just a girl too. :) Thanks for the info.

Just be forwarned: You only have 48 hours to test your product and report any defects to that outfit if you want to return an item. I've had issues with that. Test it well. The Twist that I got works quite well. :)

To be quite honest, JoAnn, I have the lavatube because it was given to me as a gift. The thing behind VV is that you can tune into the prime voltage for your tastes. It kind of makes sense, because everyone's taste is different. You can also match the voltage to the resistance of the carto, clearo, or whatever.

Personally, I'd rather feed an animal than to buy myself something.[/QUOTE]

I HEARD that !!!! Definitely HEARD that !!!! EXCELLENT !!! :thumbs:

In my defense, I've been vaping just about since these things were new. They were extremely difficult to coax into playing nicely. That's why there were so many mods that were implemented to try to get 510's to cooperate. The first thing that ever worked right out of the box without modding is the Volt. That's why I'm so darned loyal. I was able to get rid of almost everything else; however, I do still love my Leo's and some of my eGo setups.

We just feed the Deer and the feral cats that have taken over the old barn along with the racoons and possums that showed up as a result of feeding the cats. I don't have the skills to do a rescue operation but I know the Deer population has lost so much habitat in the last 20 years due to urban sprawl in the Shenandoah Valley they are literally starving themselves out. We spend about $400 a month feeding the local wildlife with Alpha pellets and corn, several salt licks and we buy a few hundred pounds of wild bird seed all from the local farm store ( Southern States/Agway). I know I am fighting a loosing battle but I do it none the less. I have been blessed with a trust fund and a pension from 27 years of working as a design engineer for the largest aircraft manufacturer in the states and I have a sizable income from the Clubs businesses which I helped grow over the last 30 years. My Girls want for little and my house is paid for so I try to give a little back to Mother Nature. My property is always full of Deer and god knows what else but it makes me feel useful even if I am only delaying the inevitable. I live in one of the most beautiful places on earth and I love to sit and look out the front window and watch the Deer just hang out. Most of them will let you walk right up and pet them. The locals think I am a crazy Hippie Biker, they may be right!

ECF really is a wealth of information and my head was overcharged with "too much information" at once. After settling down and taking long slow breaths, I realized that I started with the best and will stay with the best (Volt). I love these X2's and now that I've added the T2's and T3's, I'm satisfied. Adding these larger tanks is the icing on the cake. One thing for sure, I haven't given tobacco one single thought. That is very far behind me.

Sitting down, facing forward.
Time for my usual monologue.

While I was getting ready to comment earlier, like about 1:30, I got a call from my son-in-law telling me he had cable and plugs to hook up his generator so he could turn the heat on in the house. From his voice, I could tell he was very nervous about it and wanted help but didn't want to ask. So I made a run up to his/my daughters to "help", aka do it safely for him. They got a lot more snow, as in about a foot. Trees and lines down everywhere. The traffic lights, power, were out along the county road I use to get from Mount Holly to Jackson, about a 15 mile ride, about 3 miles from where I live. They're happily enjoying heat in the house now, but have to worry about getting gas for the generator, it's rationed in the county they live in and dumb me never thought about taking a spare 5 gallon can with me.

I've been thinking about trying a VV, too. I am very happy and totally satisfied with the Volt, 4-X2/650s and about a dozen 78mm, all in auto and one, lone, 78mm manual. I saw the Innotek Itaste and it's very intriguing. It uses a magnet to hold a custom tank/carto, 510 or 808 adapter onto the battery. To me, that would be the best of all worlds since everything I have now would fit and anything I might buy in the future would also fit. It's a little pricier than a Twist, but far more versatile. Unfortunately, no one has it in stock. One thing does bother me about it. The charging connection, apparently, is not mini or micro USB but some type of coaxial connector like you'd find on a CD player, casette player or so on. I'd love to know exactly what kind of connector that is. With all the collectors and experts here in Chit Chat, maybe somebody here can answer that. I did ask a vendor and got an "I dunno" answer.

Watch out for the Witch on the bicycle! Sounds like you need to get in the storm cellar and hang on...

That was me on the bicycle you saw going by. Fortunately, Hubby wasn't home so he doesn't know what kind of a fowl mood I was in earlier:)

Safe and clean, what you trying to do give me vapor lock? One or the other I can do but both at the same time may take another visit to my therapist. Ok I'll try but it will take some work... Ok a lot of work, who am I kidding! :evil:

I think Blues will agree with me on this,IMHO your already running a rescue. You love those deer and other wildlife,you feed them,you make things as safe as possible for them.

Today was an adventure,coming back from the Dr's office there were two pups dumped out on the side of the road. There were three but one was killed. So they are at Dr Click's office getting checked out. Looks like they have mange. Cutest little things solid white with brown faces with little red/pink noses.Look to be 6wks old. Breaks my heart.
Oh well they are safe,and they'll be spoiled like everything else around here,maybe I can talk Millie into babysitting. She needs a job other than keeping my lap warm and helping me type

It is mind boggling at first,I'm so thankful I found this forum and the Volt. I noticed that you are new to vaping CONGRATULATIONS but you still have some trials ahead more than likely,we all go through tastebud changes where you wake up one day and can't taste your vapes. It doesn't last forever but it sure seems like it.

I'm not sure what you find so amusing but maybe you should lay off the coke? I'm just telling it like it is, I have authority issues in fact I don't just have issues I have a lifetime subscription. This is all your fault anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! See what I get for agreeing with you? Trouble and I was just minding my own business and along you come and get me in violation of the rules, you led me down the path and then pushed me off the cliff. I need my Xanax, I hope you're happy now. I'm so confused, Oh well it's all good. BTW how you doing tonight ? :D

Well - I think you haven't met "Our Own Little Rodent" - "Threadkiller" then . . . :)

"1st Officer" even given all his talents, would be given a run for his money if "TK" would pop his head in Chit Chat again . . .;)

Just Sayin' . . . Any one else want to agree or disagree . . . :D


BTW: Still need that "bulldozer again and the scuba gear" . . . :confused:
