I run a mech mod about 90% of the time, of course I'm home 90% of the time. I run tanks, sometimes, usually in bed. The majority of the time I drip or run a genesis tank. I broke from my usual routine when out and about the other day. I brought out my mech and my kraken clone, when I went to check out a local shop that I haven't been in yet.
I walked into a cloud, which didn't bother me, actually figured this was gonna be a cool experience. I saw cases of mechs, batteries, box mods and vw devices galore. This seemed like the shop for veteran vapers not the cookie cutter starter places, which anyone vaping for over a year knows we need more veteran aimed shops.
I spoke with a young woman saying I was just checking out what they had to offer. She walks away a bit and comes back. This is when I begin to lose faith in the shop. She asks me what I'm using, I explained it was an infected mod with a kraken clone. Then says that the kraken sounds familiar, and I explain it's a genny.
She then tells me I'm not getting enough out of it and need a vw (cube II she points to) and a sub ohm set up. I would enjoy it more, get more satisfaction. I hold my cool, and say I'm more into mechs, it's just the way I am. She then points out the mechs they have and offers me a deal on a mod that includes this awesome Imren 40 amp battery, since it is a better mod than I have ( I'm using the original infected and the mods they have are clones).
My inner a hole awakes and like the comic, I have the right to remain silent but not the ability. I go off, explaining there are no 40 amp batteries, let alone Imrens. I tell her I have drippers and can cloud with the best and that my genny produces awesome flavor regardless of clouds.
I then educate her on Chinese relabeled batteries, knock offs and real mods, and that big clouds do not equate to big flavor. I don't need to measure myself by clouds and am no old grump, I'm just 34. On the other hand I don't need a 20ish year old to tell me how to vape.
My point is big clouds do not mean big flavor. Mech mods are safe if used correctly and can provide the same satisfaction as a vw device. Genesis tanks can be awesome or a burden but for those that hang in there, the reward is something amazing. They both go hand in hand, as the genny wasn't designed for high wattage, since it didn't exist when it came out.
There is a lot of new stuff that is awesome but the dinosaurs built what is. The dinosaurs can still teach new and old vapers a thing or two. I see and hear people say this is hard to build on, really. I have a suggestion, try rebuilding the coil on an Evod tank at 8pm sunday after a few drinks, cause you forgot to buy more and no one is open. If you can build one of those, you can build anything.
Too many people think that to get the best vape, you need something made in the last 2 months. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against high watts, blue tooth, and calendars or subohm tanks. What I hate is when people say those are the ruling groups and that you are cheap, unsafe, and blah blah blah because you run a mech.
I suggest to anyone out there with the sales coming up, get a genny tank and get it to work. If you're on a high watt, just turn it down but try one of the flavor queens of days past. If you can stick with it and build it, you will be truly amazed.
Sorry for the rant, it's been a long day. I also thought since in the US, we are remembering our heros and past. We should remember our vaping past as well.
