That being said - since I often give away complete setups to folks who are interested in 'vaping' I like to save a buck or more. However, knowing these items are probably knockoffs I want to be sure they are "safe" at the same time. GOOD reports and BAD reports from long time vaping folks is discouraging AND encouraging at the same time. Same as fasttech ..... so I'll offer up my bucks when the time comes and see for myself. If I get a "Genuine Anything" I'll surely be shocked. Logic. Good old logic.
I do the same thing. Everybody wants to try vaping so FT and E5 come in handy so they can get their feet wet without spending too much $$$ on the starter kits that often end up laying around once the "pump is primed." Worst thing is I give them the stuff that works good while I deal with the defects. Still at $3-5 for an ego battery who cares if you never get around to getting a replacement for the occasional defective one. I still remember dropping $40 every week for a carton of Marlboro 72's (yeah they were that special price OTD for a loooong time here in Cali) and thinking what a deal I got. Now I refuse to pay more then $.30 per ml unless I really really like the stuff. Oh how times have changed.
