ECF's Survey

[Poeia]

Well designed survey. (That was my profession for 20+ years)

One error - on question 37 there was no button next to "other" so it wouldn't accept a write-in. You have to select one of the pre-set answers in order to continue.

Minor quibble - when figuring out spending on non-devices, I couldn't decide if batteries were accessories or part of the devices/kits. With something like an ego, they are part of the kit but li-ion batteries are ??? (I ended up adding them to the accessories)

Where is this survey?

There is a notification bar at the top of the page with the link. I'd post it, but I already closed out that notification and can't remember how to recall it somebody else should come along and be able to give you the link


And I agree, it is certainly one of the best put together vaping surveys I've done recently

My only gripe--puffs. I really have no idea how many puffs I take, but I do know how many ml of eliquid I vape in a day.

Other than that, nice survey!

Top yellow bar--where all the major announcements are placed.

Not one of the best surveys, IMHO, but a passable / starter / bare bones one. Given the stature of ECF it could've been more detailed / dedicated / inspiring AND given an opportunity to be collated with a punch to the media, big-T, big-P and all other vape-distractors.

I didn't get a notification bar for any survey, but I keep getting one for a Call To Action on the California ban and I can't make it go away.

Same issue with #37......i had t to choose another option then add correct info in comments.....grrrrrrrrrrrr

 

[Poeia]

"Well designed" referred to the structure and the options given. There are always more things to ask but, if a survey is too long people get bored and quit.

A mantra is "never underestimate the power of people to misunderstand the question." Other than not knowing whether batteries should be devices or accessories, I didn't see that.

There were places for negative opinions (e.g. leakage, durability, etc.) Not a lot of them because this wasn't a random survey. The people who respond all come to ECF. Therefore we are all vapers so there is something we like about electronic cigarettes. In a random survey, if most of the questions are "why is it great?" your results are vulnerable to the opposition because they can say you were leading the respondents.

Like I said, well designed. Bravo (or brava, as the case may be.)

My only gripe will occur if I don't win some cash.

 

[The Ocelot]

Yes, #37! I didn't see a place to correct it in comments. I use 70pg/30vg, but had to pick the closest one.

I also had trouble with the question about how many devices I bought within a certain price range. My first purchase was a kit with two batteries and I wasn't sure if I should put the cost of the whole kit or approximately what the batteries in the kit cost (I ended up entering that).

 

[DC2]

I guess I'll go on a survey hunt...

 

[Cool_Breeze]

I opted out around 95% competition.

The question regarding supporting suppliers who supported consumers' interests was a bit broad...no real spelling out of that. I don't recall the precise wording as that was a couple of hours ago. I wouldn't give blanked support, nor denial without a bit more understanding.

The devil is in the details...

Last question cracked me up, why do I have to be happy about it?

 

[daPorkchop]

I went through only 3 questions before I couldn't click the answers anymore... they weren't getting checked.

Nevermind, finished it in IE. Chrome is starting to not be my fav browser.

I was confused by the same thing as I've only purchased kits - but I, too, just estimated what the battery cost.

My only gripe will occur if I don't win some cash.

If I win (highly unlikely, I NEVER win anything) I wonder if I could apply it to supporting ECF since I don't do third party services and don't have PayPal?

Why not? I wish u do. And when u do -- contact Oldsoldier to swap it in support.

I didn't understand where they were going with the health questions and dropped out there. I didn't want pre-ecig/unrelated issues to be conflated with cigarette and ecig-related issues and if that wasn't the purpose, it seems generally to be none of their business. Had there been an explanation (there or here) I might have continued.
