Do you get bugged by people about your mods?

[rzil]

I'm going to switch to a mod soon and I'm a bit worried that people are going to be annoying , approach me every single time and ask me what is it while I'm only into having a good vape alone without people bothering me.

with my ego twist and ego-c it happens every once in a while , but probably the mod is going to attract more attention , especially in a country where you have only 5-10K people vaping.

Nemesis in 18350/hybrid mode, no. Nemesis in 18650 mode people think I have a weapon haha.

Norway is not the country of bugging strangers. It's the country of giving the evil eye

And the "home of giants".

I get a dirty look now and again as I exhale. But really, no one cares, unless they are a vaper. But I'm in the US in an area with a lot of vape shops, so I think people are getting used to seeing this stuff a bit more.

It's the same living in the south. No one says a word…to me. The chatter goes on behind my back. I'd prefer people ask questions that I'd happily answer but I think it's more entertaining for them to poke fun at something they don't understand.

here it depends , the older folks might give me the "That young dude is doing drugs" look but i think people my age stare at me and think "I wonder what that is" .

even so , sometimes I just want to vape quietly without people bothering me and asking questions , I do explain it to smokers just because it's the decent thing to do as an ex-smoker but when non-smokers bother me it's annoying , I don't want to justify myself every time I'm going to vape .

You could just use your mod when at home or when visiting friends and use your Ego-T when out in public.

Carrying mods around is dumb. Just use eGo-Cs on the go, use your mods at home.

yup I guess you are right , I'm a bit concerned about the ban that might be enforced here and it's 1 of the reasons I'm getting a mod , in case my ego-twist stop functioning.

perhaps the best thing to do is also buy few ego type devices in case my ego twist will go bad.

I've used a mechanical mod one time around a lot of people in public. It was at the beach, only one person asked what I was using and where I got it (Caribbean 266550) and he had a v3 flip in his hands when he asked.

Depends on the size of your setup. I use short 18350 mods with gennies all the time. Most of the setups are less than 10cm long plus drip tip. Shorter than my old 900 mah non-VV eGos.

I carry my 18650 nemesis/KFL everywhere I go. Let them stare, I don't care...

Says who???

I haven't carried anything OTHER than a mod in almost a year. I occasionally get questions about them. but usually from people i know. I've rarely had a random stranger ask me anything about them. The few that do have usually been polite, and more just curious about them.

 

[CloudsinCrowds]

I truly feel that as a human its your birth given right to do what you please.
So in other words carry a mod and if you are not blowing clouds in peoples faces then who cares do what you want. I carry twin 18650 box mods when im out and about

 

[tj99959]

Almost all of the mechanicals come with the ability to use them with different length batteries. So you can make them as small or large as you wish. So while my Kicked Nemesis with a KF 3.1 looks like something Luke Skywalker would carry, my Caravela with a 18490 battery in it easily hides in the palm of my hand. (it's smaller than a 650mAh ego battery)

I live in a smoking town. No one vapes, we have no vape shops. But I use my Reo everywhere I go. I don't use it in stores of course, but I vape in parking lots etc. No one has given me a second look. Actually I was using it one day in a parking lot, an elderly man walked up to me and said, "Thank you!" I figured it had something to do with my mod. Then he just said he was worried about getting looks for wearing a jacket on a warm day, then he saw I did. Again, paid no attention to my mod. If they feel that way here, your safe anywhere!

 

[wheelie]

My mod with a long curved drip tip, everyone thinks I am carrying a butane torch. Everyone asks me about it. Wife said to me one day that she always wonder why everyone always stares at me, then she remembers my vape mods. Go big or stay at home! LOL

 

[HauntedMyst]

I have a custom mod that I take when I go out. It looks like a Ruger 357 and when I suck on it, it looks like I am ready to commit suicide. I get a lot of looks but no one asks questions and everyone clears a path. My buddy is the police chief and he gives me a good talking too at least 3 times a month while laughing

 

[GinnyTx]

OMG yes! where ever I go, smokers what to puff on it, either my mod or the eGos, I carry those little mouthpieces they have in the store now (haven't ever had a cold sore in 50 years and don't intend on getting one *lol*)

we were coming home from supper last night on the motorcycle at a stop light so I whip it out for a few puffs and some kid yelling out out of his window "Hey!! Can I have some of that!!" I'm a granny so I naturally assume it's the vape (and it was *lol*) NO you can't! get your own!

It's like when I was preggers and total strangers would come touch your stomach! It's the weirdest thing and it goes in your mouth?!!

but yeah I find they bug me ...but I find it funny and have fun with it.
