i hate when i'm running late and realize a mile down the road that i forgot my pv & supplies...AGAIN. :censored:

Add to that: The battery decides to quit on that little trip out to the store! Might be able to solve this though when I get my multimeter, IF I remember to CHECK the battery before I leave!

That's the worst but, I really miss the consistency of cigarettes. With a PV the atty can be too wet or too dry, the battery may be getting low etc. You don't always get the same thing and when you don't it's not satisfying. I'm not bothered enough to go back but, some more consistency would be really nice.

I think most would agree with you about the lack of "consistency" with many PV's and what is missed in comparison to smoking. It is inherent due to batteries losing power quickly along with the inconsistent quality of the atomizer/cartomizers. The battery problem has been solved with technology, specifically regulated circuitry and much longer lasting batteries. The "Darwin" is the best example of this. The first inhale is the same as the last with the Darwin due to the regulated circuitry that senses the resistence of the atomizer and adjusts the power automatically. Plus 21-35 hours on a charge is the best that I know of.

OMG...I have heard of the Darwin, but I had no idea of what it was capable of!! Off to research...

NOTE: Please in any rant do not be disrespectful

I really hate over priced shipping charges that use the excuse of handling for the high price. Nothing gets me more uspset when a item I purchase is cheaper than the cost to ship it to me.
I agree wholeheartedly. In fact, I will not purchase from sellers who artificially inflate the price of their products by adding ridiculous shipping charges.

If are experiencing inconsistent vapes, you are probably believing the self promotion in this forum. Same goes for expensive juices tasting like crap. Same goes for having to put a condom on your carto when all you have to do is break apart your carto and drop the filler in a 10cc syringe. I hate when people recommend e-cig accessories when they aren't necessary.

In general I dislike attempts to complicate vaping when it is so, so simple.

My biggest pet peeve is probably "steeping". Juice isn't good until a week has passed? You go ahead and have some week-old juice ready to ship, then. Second biggest pet peeve are the forum derps who are all like, "I lyk mah joose fresh, tho," as if it makes a difference whether it sits in your closet for two weeks or on a vendor's shelf. PLUS, the ingredients going into the juice probably have been sitting there on a shelf for some time, so "fresh" doesn't really mean fresh.

Oh well, so much for respectful.

ProVari + MAP tank... perfect. Consistent, never over filled, takes days to be empty.... mmm. 21-35 hour battery life would be great, but honestly mine lasts at least a day and I just drop it on the charger at night (and switch batteries, until the next night).

I hate it when I place an order and two minutes after it is confirmed I remember something else I should have added! I know this is just user error, but I can get mad at myself right?

A lot of vendors, if you contact them, will let you add it and use some hidden free shipping option. I was so bad at that for a while that Dave (FSUSA) would actually call me before they boxed it up to make sure I didn't have something to add (most of the time I did...).
