Heaven Gifts EMS is $14. I usually 'build up an order' first to justify it. And with each purchase you gain 'points' that can lead to lifetime discounts at the silver and gold level that will more than make up for the shipping.
eGo,Riva,tornado,Maxx? How did I make my Choice? Ask me!!

I didn't forget anything. That's just what I paid for my last two orders (actually more orders than that). Pretty much what everyone here in the US would pay, which I'm assuming is what 'markimar' in Orlando might want to know and to whom that was addressed.
Looks like HG shipping differs depending on destination - for me it costs $28!!!
So my only choice from them is to use regular mail and I can only risk getting small parts - attys and converters, which for me is fine.
Well, looks like I am sold (almost
) - once I finalize and get it I will check the voltage and let you know (unless someone beats me to it - might take 1 month to reach me) But if it is 3.7, great, since it seems that all M401 run at 2.8v and the M401 PT runs at 3.2, so 3.7 will be a much better deal.
Just ordered my Maxx with the killer e liquid deal.. that should keep me going for like 9 months...
Including what I have now, I should be safe for over a year, yeee!!
cannot wait to
Edit:
Added some converters, 2 LR attys and a 510 manual PT from HG...
Used regular mail though, only 4 bucks - the other shipping method is just too much for me.

Well I shot off an email to Smoore/Absolutely to see if they actually build the MaxX and their new 510 atties. I also asked if the T-Rex is just a re-brand.
There seems to be quite a few posts of folks having button/battery problems with their eGo/Joyes. Let's see if Absolutey has addressed some of these issues as they infer, and the 4.2V claim is probably their way of saying the device will operate at the standard 3.7V loaded voltage like most USA mods.
Smoore has been at it awhile, and if the 510 atties are their own I'd like to try them also.
That said, without long term reviews (to see how they hold up), I'd be much more prone to buy a new Smoore product than one from EM or Hello.
Alright just got a response, my questions:
The response:
Clear as mud.

Not a surprising tactic. Most reputable ecig manufacturers are keeping everything hush hush now. Joye refuses to sell within China for fear of their products being copied. EM says their model is not a Joye but refuses to reveal the manufacturer or whether they are the manufacturer. Some chinese sites i visited that carries the ego are not allowed to ship to certain countries.
Its getting competitive and when you have something good and improved (possibly), you wanna keep it to yourself and recover whatever investments you have made + profits before ever letting anyone know.
However, judging from the reply, it does seem to be a Smoore product or at least, an Absolutelyecigs.com product, which should mean the same thing.
other way around I expect....the T-Rex is made by Shenzhen Mingjietong Technology Co., Ltd. and I doubt there were two companies coming out with identical stainless steel switches in the same week.....

Ah now I see why Smoore was so vague. It's interesting their other products are a 401, 402, 403 (Smoore clone), a 510 (Joye clone) and a 701 cigar (SLB clone).
electronic cigarette/ Shenzhen Mingjietong Technology Co., Ltd.
So many players these days.
I'll just put this out there -
Totally Wicked Tornado, 1000mah
Electronic Cigarettes and eLiquid / Totally Wicked eLiquid / electronic cigarette eliquid nicotine fluid products
Totally Wicked Tornado, 1000mah
Electronic Cigarettes and eLiquid / Totally Wicked eLiquid / electronic cigarette eliquid nicotine fluid products
Could be some sort of a collaboration/ OEM partnership/ marketing strategy? Just throwing it out there as a possibility. They did mention that it was their own product though.
If your hope* turns out to be reality, the Hello 016 seems the only way to go.
* That is, not only the advertised 1300 mAh, but also a true 3.7V (starting at 4.2V fully charged).
Otherwise, I will continue to be torn between the true 3.7V T-Rex** and the 1300 mAh Hello 016. [The new 1000 mAh Tornado batts are too little, too late.]
** I say T-Rex rather than Absolute MaxX, because of shipping costs from U.S. supplier like eSmokerOnline vs. a China supplier like AbsolutelyEcigs.
Please let us know the reality.
