I don't think it's USER SELECTABLE vv, anyway.
DaveP...Here's another link to an article. It includes a video that talks about the micorprocess in the battery and also the "memory" in the carto.....for the "digital vapor e-cig".

It's getting confusing because we have multiple threads on this topic. That link came from here:

It will be interesting to see if they incorporated a fuse that is popped by the MP (it looks like they have a counter that disables the carto after 200 puffs). I'm betting that someone will reverse engineer this thing and find a way to reset it VIA USB to refill it and make it work again. All those corporate manufacture inkjet carts do similar things, but refillers find a way or develop a compatible cart that the printer will accept. I'm big on Amazon sold carts for my Brother 635DW Printer and my Mother's HP 6100. I typically get 3 blacks and 2 to 3 each of the color carts for around $30. They work well.
ejuice is Ejuice. Someone will find a way to cheat RJ's.

If a carto really last that long. So.. what happens if some-ones changes the carto? Does the hit counter reset and start again? The processor in the battery picks up a new processor in the carto?
ETA: Ok, I've seen the video you added now Attypops - thanks.

They call it "V-Juice".
Who knows.....
BT has some of the best marketing on the planet. You have to concede that to them.
My wife has had an on and off relationship with ecigs. The cost is high, but she might be interested in this thing if it delivers 200 good puffs on a carto for $3. She has a 510 and an eGo. The eGo is not her favorite because she doesn't like the size. The 510 is iffy with a cart and too long with a carto on the end. I guess size does matter!
200 puffs might be economical for her. It takes her about 3 days to get through a pack of cigs. $1 a day might sell for people like her.

Who knows? Might be great for her.
Has she tried the 808's with small cartos? They've been around for years.
Just due to economic factors...If I wanted a cig-a-like, I'd consider the refillable cartos 1st. But that's me. Like I've said before, I vape for about 20 cents per day using refillable/rebuildable stuff (510 connectors). So all the pre-filled stuff is ....more expensive to me. And I DIY juice..so it's "fresh" too.
I caught that too. It started with wv2win's post. I see it so often. Conservatives are ALWAYS on the edge, always quick to criticize anyone who thinks outside of their box. Terrorist....Communist.....Liberal.....etc etc. All names branded by the elite, meant to separate the populace and make us weaker...........................
Government never solved anything. It is a necessary evil, and our very FOUNDING fathers UNDERSTOOD THIS. That is WHY the constitution was drafted. That is WHY this country was originally designed the way it was. By free masons, no less. They didn't want a bunch of wealthy elitists, dominating the media outlets, the government, the politics, and the lives of the average American person. They wanted our government to play a MINIMAL role in our lives..............................
Anyway, I've said enough
/rant over
First, this brings to mind the old term: "the kettle calling the pot black". I point out that a previous post ONLY singled out Fox news as being a "faux" news organization but ignored the bais on the other side of the political specturm in news organizations like MSNBC. And then you infer that I am a Conservative and that Conservatives are "ALWAYS" on the edge and quick to critcize. If you really believed your diatribe later in your post, you would not have been "one-sided" in those comments or inferred that I am a Conservative. But the incongruity of your comments have escaped you. If you had stated that BOTH extremes are quick to critcize, your later comments would have more validity. But I suspect we know why you didn't.
Second, if you really understood history and read the political beliefs of Washington and Alexander Hamilton and the actions of Thomas Jefferson (regardless of his writings) and John Adams, you would understand they were strong supporters of stong, central and intrusive government. John Adams signed into law the Alien & Sedition Act of 1798, no less!!
Your "rant" has many holes in it.
Another thing to pay attention to in the video is the battery and cartridge use a 'quick connect" and not the typical 510 or 808 threading. This would make 90% of the cartridges out there now unable to connect until an adapter is created. This is just one of the ways they are trying to make it proprietary.
Well, I dislike that this has become a political conservative/liberal rant thread that is totally off topic of the vuse.
However, the founding fathers are dust...and their views are.....subject to everyone's interpretation in several ambiguous areas. I love how both "sides" quote the "Founding Fathers" as supporting their views. As if things haven't changed and gotten more complex over time.
wv2win...I basically agree with what you just posted, BTW so I'm not slamming either point of view. Other than the fact that this political discussion can go on forever and won't help us understand the VUSE.

One reason I switched from prefilled to refillable was economic. I used Greensmoke for a while when I was new to vaping. They worked, but for a heavy smoker switched to vaping I wasn't saving money. Another was for more e-juice choices.
Some people won't mind buying proprietary threaded prefills tho. They are extremely convenient - just screw on a carto and vape.
It's unfortunate IMO, that college/university education has diminished the value of a "true" liberal arts education. An education that requires students to take a well rounded curriculum along with a specific major. When I was in college we were required to take a year of Philosopy (including Logic), Literature and Critical Writing along with our specific major. At the time, I didn't like those requirements but now realize their benefit.
Well yes Fox does tend to be biased toward Conservative values. But what those other channels are doing dosen't seem to have a true word for it anymore. Hard BIAS, cheer leading, the current administration can do no wrong and anyone the disagrees is a RACIST. Shoot, MSNBC came right out, as of late, and admitted that News isn't what they are about.
I want News, not biased opinions on a liberal/progressive slant, or Tingles up my flipping leg (for crying out loud!).
Yep!
If you think about it...cigs are...pretty reliable. Even with paper wrappers like that...how many cigs actually had holes in them or something wasn't glued properly? The reject rate was real low. Basically they all "worked". And were very convenient.
That's part of what they are...marketing...with this. "It just works" methodology. At least, that's my take on it. But "it ain't free", as they say. lol.
OH! OH! The recycle program! I JUST HAD A BRAINSTORM!. That memory in the carto could be used to track vaping habits and refine the product too. In other words....monitoring use. So they could get data back from those recycled cartos. Hmmmm........ Batteries too. Hmmmm.........
The eVic already has user data ports on it. You can pull up data about your vaping. The concept is not without precedent.
And it's a good way to monitor use and quality control.
lol.
Maybe in the future they will put a GPS microchip in them so they can report to the government who is using them, where they are using them and send all that info so your health rates go up. After all somebody has to pay for Obamacare.
I have to stop, I told myself that I wouldn't get into the political side of this.
You're NOT going to sucker me into the political debate! There's plenty of threads in the OUTSIDE sub-forum for that!
I did find it hard to take when the guy in the video said they would "legitimize" ecigs. Oh puhleeeze.
Legitimize = Have the FDA regulate e-cigs and nic so big tobacco can squeeze the little guy out.
There I go again, I have to stop the politics.
Thanks for the comments, Atty and I agree with you. It would be better if this was only about the Vuse. There are better threads for discussions on the political issues surrounding vaping. It would be nice if more ECF members would pay attention to the experts in the Harm Reduction arena and their inside understanding of which political persuasion is more apt to leave vaping as it is and which is more apt to restrict it. But many can't see beyond their bias.
