some post in other forums other than this one because this place is run by an elite minority that most members feel obliged to follow. Being a very active member in the "new members" forum and doing all the "welcome to the forum" cr4p does wonders for recruitment...obviously.

might be of some value to point out that the person you speak of is not affiliated with any supplier/manufacturer or a "fanboy".

might also be appropriate to point out that persons' fairness, objectivity and concern for the safety and well being of other people, especially newcomers. for no other compensation than helping others.

anyone who's been here long enough to witness the conflict unfold between these two gentleman also witnessed your hand in it too.
you've always been there, along with others, behind the scenes. stirring it up at every opportunity, then running back to the cave to giggle and wait for daddy's hand to pat you on the head. the threads are all still there if anyone cares to do a little entertaining research.

i think it's great that you would go to such lengths to "promote", in a backhanded way, your favorite product. it shows great loyalty. as far as sales go, i wonder if people are so willing to hand over their money to someone who supports or even takes part in such practices to disparage and/or demean someone else who may or may not be a future competitor?

on a personal note, the "very active member" " doing all the "welcome to the forum" cr4p" has earned more respect and admiration for being a decent, caring human being than you will ever know.

what have you done?

(listens to the sound of chirping crickets)

i thought so.

I'm interested, but can't find what I'm looking for. - ECigScrewdriver

Apostle,

Imeo's mod is an innovation that builds upon the SD concept. Yes, Trog is the original modder who had the original concept of a bigger, more reliable battery and calling the atomizers disposable. I give him full credit for that. He was pioneer at that time. He did a great job building the SD, and no one is saying he didn't.

The GG is made so ALL parts are user-replaceable (no solering involved, all threaded parts). The SD is not. This is an innovation. To fix whatever goes wrong with the SD, one must wait while the whole thing gets shipped back to UK, waits for one of the Trog family to fix it, then gets shipped back - this could take weeks. With the GG concept, one must only email Imeo - he ships out the part in a day or two, and the user replaces the part in ten minutes or less. Imagine the difference between sending your entire car in to the manufacturer for repairs and simply driving to the parts store and fixing it yourself. That is a huge difference in the amount of time with the inconvenience of roughing it with another device.

Imeo is willing to make adapters for several types of atomizers - again replaceable by the user. It took a long time and a LOT of user requests for the SD to get a penstyle adaptor. If a new device comes along with a fantastic atomizer, one only needs to send Imeo the battery or battery fitting, and he will send them an adaptor that they can install and use with the new device. To get that same adaptor for the SD might take a few years and a few thousand requests.

I am not flaming Trog or his SD here, just making a comparison to illustrate where the innovation is.

The GG gives the user battery options as well - run on 3.7v with a 14500 battery, or run on 6v with 2xCR2 batteries.

This does not negate Trog's contribution or diminish it in any way. It builds upon a good concept with another good concept or two.

Imeo has refrained from saying anything negative about Trog since that outside thread was closed. Why does our exuberance over another mod bother you so? We are not stupid. We know that the original battery pack mod was the SD. That does not mean that no one can improve upon that.

Your car analogy suggests that the Screwdriver was the Model T. It wasn't - that credit would go to Ruyan.
no , that would be the Electronic cigarette. what I am comparing here is an e-cig using standard atomoizers and bigger 'off-the shelf' batteries concept, not the device.

and Nico , thank you for a great response and i do see it's possibly an improvement and where those improvements are. I have never argued that it's not a great bit of kit and a nice job. It's the original idea that was already there that Imeo is taking credit for. Without the Screwdriver he would never have thought of ever making the GG im sure, or maddog and his magnum or rob and his pipe or any off the other Standard battery box mods for that matter.

told you I'd get a flaming for speaking my mind, but what the hey , it's entertaining that's for sure.
It's funny how people see the screwdriver banner and automatically go into flame mode...

oh and candygirl ...my point exactly, hit the nail on the head there didn't I.

I love how you interpret this as flaming. Honestly, I am just trying to point out a differing view. I did not attack you. I quoted you. I pointed out facts to the best of my ability, leaving emotions and interpretations aside.

It isn't just the screwdriver banner that causes a defensive reaction when you post. It is what you post and where you post it. Ever since the great OUTSIDE, you have been following Imeo and his posts, posting things that try to question his integrity, his motives, his skills, and his character. You have been a 'doubting thomas' at best - but a vocal one. You take potshots at the very same individuals that Trog has troubles dealing with, even though they are not active in this thread. You take excerpts from these threads here and paste them into Trog's forum to laugh at all of us and how gullible we all are. You have acted like a fanboy for more than just Trog's device (this leads me to the interpretation that you really just want to stir up the compost heap).

I respond to apostle post and I explain everything, but he did not read it. AGAIN!!!
You said that the concept was there. Ok modders of the world, put your tools into the drawer and dont do anything. Only trog will make what ever he wants. But I wonder, some scientists 200 ago found
something. The others make something better knowing the past. Thats the way the history is written. So if Tesla found something, no one must do anything else? If we had stayed on Tesla's invention's, now we
had to take the telephone wires to shoulders and go to phone our friends.
Nobel price the most of the times is given to people who had not the first idea but the BETTER idea. The first idea still remains but only in the books. Do you know what is matters? Today. What can you do
for us today? they all ask. If you say "I was the best in the past" they will laugh and go.

Exept all these, the "erm..wasn't his idea ..been done already". I dont know anyone who has a mod with a lot of batteries and the most important: Where is the mod that can be fixed by his owner? Maybe
someone who will come later to the forum and will say "Yes it was my idea". And the other important thing. Who made the idea act?
Well, tomorrow I will say that I have an idea to go to mars. Do you think that if second son make it real they will remember me? Of course not. Secondson will be the master.
All these happens because the GG is perfect and as a friend of the forum said "the silence of ctitism's". The only thing you said and said and said apostle is "the idea is not yours".
Please stay to the facts, and say something for GG.
I see that if SD change his color from silver to black they all said: "exiting, unbelieveable, I want it. What, the color? Lets laugh. We are talking here about a whole new build from the begging like a
factory does, and we will stick to the color? Lets laugh again. Its so funny, so funny.
You said that the people here does not see that the idea was trog's.
I said that here there are very, very intelligent and funny and beautiful people with their minds open, and there are modders. In SD's forum there are people who have to agree with the chief and people who
follow like the sheeps. I dont talk about the people who they are here in SJ's AND there in trog's but only for those they ARE ONLY "THERE".

You said that "I have no Problems with Imeo". Yes I see it. I will tell you something. Go to trog's forum and speak like this. You will be banned and you will be fu...d. But you already know that, do you
Apostle?
All that matters is "today" and NOT the automobiles of 1960 with the maximum speed of 60 km/h. If I give you a porse you will reject it? You will stay with the yugo?

At last you said the UNBELIEVEABLE thing "Without the Screwdriver he would never have thought of ever making the GG im sure, or maddog and his magnum or rob and his pipe or any off the other Standard
battery box mods for that matter.". Maybe you think that trog is the most inteligent, creative and clever man in the world. You are sure about that, you believe it deep in your heart. But my question is:
HOW CAN BE SO SO SO SURE APOSTLE? Are you a augur? a mentium? I will tell you this my friend. If I was in the e-cig's game, I would have thought it first. You know why? Because I am a mentium!!!


Last think to close this long long post.
GG, IS YEARS OF LIGHT BETTER THAN ANYTHING IN THE MARKET TODAY, BELIEVE IT AND YOU WILL SEE THE LIGHT, YOU ARE IN THE DARK RIGHT NOW. STOP FOLLOWING ORDERS AND BE A MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nico , i wasnt refering to your post as being flaming , just several other previous replies.
I don't believe i have ever questioned his skills or his character. I don't and have never copied excerpts from this forum and posted in trogs forum, I have crosslinked but that's normal. I'd like to see where i have copied and pasted.
I have 9 posts in trogs forum I'm hardly a heavy user there.

I respond to apostle post and I explain everything, but he did not read it. AGAIN!!!

Imeo , It's not the fact you've made the bl00dy thing it's the fact you want credit for inventing the standard atomizer / bigger battery concept.

Exept all these, the "erm..wasn't his idea ..been done already". I dont know anyone who has a mod with a lot of batteries and the most important: Where is the mod that can be fixed by his owner?
I can fix my power e-cig as many other users have done. Got spares sent and fitted them at home, all depends on the user in the end.
Maybe
someone who will come later to the forum and will say "Yes it was my idea". And the other important thing. Who made the idea act?
Well, tomorrow I will say that I have an idea to go to mars. Do you think that if second son make it real they will remember me? Of course not. Secondson will be the master.

Ok , look . all it is is a different shaped screwdriver..there i said it..you say people can fix this at home ..jeez some people can service their own cars doesn't mean anybody can. you say about diferent batteries. But that was another aim of the SD no more 20 different type batteries to charge.
Please stay to the facts, and say something for GG.
I see that if SD change his color from silver to black they all said: "exiting, unbelieveable, I want it. What, the color? Lets laugh. We are talking here about a whole new build from the begging like a
factory does, and we will stick to the color? Lets laugh again. Its so funny, so funny.
I'm missing something here..not sure what your getting at ..
You said that the people here does not see that the idea was trog's.
I said that here there are very, very intelligent and funny and beautiful people with their minds open, and there are modders. In SD's forum there are people who have to agree with the chief and people who
follow like the sheeps. I dont talk about the people who they are here in SJ's AND there in trog's but only for those they ARE ONLY "THERE".
Follow like sheep, wasn't you calling people to "follow" you back in this thread somewhere.......

You said that "I have no Problems with Imeo". Yes I see it. I will tell you something. Go to trog's forum and speak like this. You will be banned and you will be fu...d. But you already know that, do you
Apostle?

Like i said to Nico , I have a 9 post total in trogs forum , so I'm not a regular user there, people must assume i am without even bothering to look.
All that matters is "today" and NOT the automobiles of 1960 with the maximum speed of 60 km/h. If I give you a porse you will reject it? You will stay with the yugo?

Like i said before Imeo , It's a great looking mod and I hope it all goes great for you and yes there are some improvements over the origianl idea but that's what im saying is the original idea was already there , you just improved on it.

At last you said the UNBELIEVEABLE thing "Without the Screwdriver he would never have thought of ever making the GG im sure, or maddog and his magnum or rob and his pipe or any off the other Standard
battery box mods for that matter.". Maybe you think that trog is the most inteligent, creative and clever man in the world. You are sure about that, you believe it deep in your heart. But my question is:
HOW CAN BE SO SO SO SURE APOSTLE? Are you a augur? a mentium?
lol , this forum was and still is the best source and most used e-cig forum on the internet. If there was a bigger battery , standard atomizer mod available , it would have been here. you have yet to cut your teeth on this forum so I understand you may think your the pioneer here.

I will tell you this my friend. If I was in the e-cig's game, I would have thought it first. You know why? Because I am a mentium!!!
that's the problem , the superiority complex.

Last think to close this long long post.
GG, IS YEARS OF LIGHT BETTER THAN ANYTHING IN THE MARKET TODAY, BELIEVE IT AND YOU WILL SEE THE LIGHT, YOU ARE IN THE DARK RIGHT NOW. STOP FOLLOWING ORDERS AND BE A MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like i say , I'm not following anyones orders Imeo..just because I have trogs forum in my banner doesnt mean he is my commander in chief lol..funny

send me a GG and I'll give an honest answer :rolleyes: lol

who knows , maybe I'll have your website in my banner signature someday ;)


The question was not to compare the mods. All we know what is going on. My intension was to see if you are a honest man. You gave a very clever answer, I must say that. You will see the compare by others who have SD and GG to their homes:D

Well guys, I wanted to post some tests about the mod but I was busy with ...........other things.

The last tests show me that GG works best with 2xcr2 batteries. But it works well with only 1 cr2 3v!!!.

I want to test it with 2xcr123A and with 2xcr2 3,6v=7,2v. I believe that the smoke will be better (if the atomizer will not be burned). Today the post office informed me that something came from China. I have order many things from DX but I believe that they are the batteries.

I will post the final tests tomorow.

I must mention that:

I have found a very nice and expensive led with an real-real beautiful case, but the led if it goes in line with the atomizer, takes all the volts, so it must be in paralel. If it goes paralel I will need a wire to connect it. But I said no wires, so: Maybe the led (it was the first surprise) will not be on his position. I will try to think of something but its very dificult:)

hehe , didn't think that would work.
Well I've said my piece here , and i hope i havent upset anyone to deeply.
Imeo , honestly good luck with your GG . I was an engineer for 12 years and in my proffesional opinion it's a nice looking bit of kit and I'm sure it will be succesful for you.
Who knows , I'm not ruling out buying one in the future ( if that choice is available to me). Just for perspective here, when trog first introduced the Screwdriver here on the forum , I was one of his biggest sceptics knowing how it was made also made me question it's value , read some of the early screwdriver reviews and threads and you'll see , I was once Trogs and the screwdrivers biggest doubter.

Imeo... For crying out loud.

You joined this forum in Feb '09. You have over 450 posts. I'm willing to bet 440 of them are in three threads:

1) This one (all about your generic battery box mod)
2) The last one (which was closed because the mod didn't appear in over 10 pages of self-promotion)
3) The Trog Bash (which was closed because all it did was stir up muck and drive off a good supplier)

*A more suspicious person might think you bashed Trog thinking you were clearing the way for your G.G.*

You make completely inaccurate (or at least misleading) claims such as the "immortality" of your device (batteries die, atomizers die, switches fail - yes a metal tube is immortal), your credit as the "inventor" (this mod has been done innumerable times), the self-serviceability of the G.G. (is ANY soldering required?), and about the superiority of the G.G. to any mod.

Yes, you modded a 901. Forgive me for being underwhelmed. You have completed a task people have been doing (with even better results) for years.

I am now prepared to receive your standard attacks. Please let me know if any of these points are incorrect.

All of them. I believe that some people write posts without reading
the previous. Ok lets start:

1) My posts are my posts and I dont give a dam where they are
posted, because I want a issue to completed. The matter is not the
number of posts but what are writing
2)I wrote before but you did not read it. I have enough money to
live well, me and my family. If trog had not annoy me and my
friend,
I would sit on my desk, smoking my SD. The GG is a result of this.
3) imortality is not the case. The case is more powerful than all
the others of course but its not that. It is:
a) the battery connector. Its not an atomizer witch has his threads
out and wired and rebuild. You will understand when you see the
video. I made things from scratch but much better than Chinese. The
connector is one thing with a hole inside and a threaded cylinder
inside, not little pieces with plastics and pushed the one inside
the other.
b) The case as we said before
c) the button would be imortal but it was heavy enough (I will show
it to the video to see what I made), so I put a very good button,
but the way I build it, its so easy to replace it (for 2 euros), so
it is imortal in a way. As for batteries, maybe you are the only
one here who believed that by the word "imortal" I meand the
batteries!!!
d) As I had post 1 day ago, the imortality is for things I made and
not for chinese things, but I said if you had read that maybe I
will make an imortal atomizer.
So I am not inaccurate at all.

I never said that I am an inventor (read all the thread). You say
it now.
As for the self-serviceability of the G.G it exists. What do you
ask? We have said it a million times. No soldering, no wires, no
glue, nothing at all.
Superiority is unanswerably. I have said so many things about this
mod. Please read and tell me if a today device has all these things
that I mentioned before. If there is any, then ok the GG is not the
best.
You said that other people have better results for years. Did you
see my video and understand that the others had better results? I
have not make any video yet!
After many posts from the forum people to this thread, you come and ask the same things. Please tell me honestly. Did you read anything from this thread or you came here only to flame?
As my standard attacks: If you afraid of me, dont post here.

This is to new for us to be arguing among our pioneers. Are we ever going to learn that we need to work as team to establish e-smoking as norm. The fight is not among ourselves but to make e-smoking a large scale hobby replacement whatever you want to call it to damaging cigarettes. I have a SD and I like some points of what he is making at the end some people will like durability some people will like the SD for its futuristic design. Some people will like the GG for its work horse possibilities. At the end what we have is more options of better products and more refined replacements for the bigger picture to enjoy smoking without damaging ourselves and others. Focus on the bigger picture please.

I am absolutely agree Vapor but some people think that their product will be here for ever. Exept that, they afraid for their customers. But this is capitalism. If you dont like the competition, you go.:)
