Topeka is something of a black hole for vaping gear above the eGo level. A few tobacco stores have juices, hugely overpriced of course, but there are no vape shops worthy of the name of which I am aware.
Hello Proranch, yes Big E's. I've got to get over there soon. Thanks for stopping in and saying hello.
Hello Supersang913,
Yes it does get expensive. What I do is sell my older equipment on ebay to help buy the newer stuff.

Hows the parking at Volcano? Big enough to park a semi (no trailer) or anywhere in walking distance? I usually head to KC Vapes cause I can park in the side of the parking lot.
Nice to see a fellow 680 driver on here. I can't tell you about KC but if you Make it to Wichita or Tulsa let me know, I can direct you to places where you can get bobtail in Wichita and even with a trailer in Tulsa.
Here's my 680 on her very first load on August 3rd. I like the color of yours, same as my 2013 Volvo I just got out of.
I started out a little over 3 years ago. Did a bunch of research then ordered my devices and liquid and I did well until I came down with a case of what I call laziness. Back to the cigs I went.
This last summer I returned and have been going strong thanks in part to the new shops around town. No longer needing to plan out my next orders and wait by the mailbox for vapemail to arrive. I can have the best of both worlds now (there is something about the vapemail that is so rewarding). Also the options as far as devices has greatly improved.
I don't know if this is closer to you than the one out east, but they opened a west side Big E's just east of 21st and Tyler.

Hey Catalinaflyer,
I looked at all your pictures, I like them. I see your into R/C quadcopters also. I have been flying R/C for 30 years, love it! Its a hobby that never gets old. Really like those overhead shots from the quadcopter. Those Volvo rigs with oversize sleeper are very nice. How do you like hauling oversize loads? Must be a challenge at times.

Both of the Big E's are about the same distance from my house. Is there any difference between the two stores. I will have to check them both out.

I will definitely let you now if I get a chance to stop in Wichita. Always hunting for vape shops on the road. I love my 680. Got her March 1. The second 680 in TransAm's fleet and I will be the first to pay it off. I came to this company specifically for this truck.

Went to KC today and boy what a disappointment. Started at KCvapes, I tried about 40 different flavors. There were two that I liked OK. Most were either way too sweet for me or just didn't taste like what they were supposed to. Very few Cheaper PVs to look at. I was wanting to see an Itaste 3.0 or a Vision Spinner. Nope they had one ego style VV and then about 4 higher end mods. One of them looked like a damn light saber and about that size as well. Sorry, while I can see why people buy them. I don't want something that large. Then I went to a store in North KC and they were very nice, but they specialized in Mech Mods only and did not have any juice above 18 mg and some stopped at 12 mg. Very pleasant people Tommy was the guy behind the counter. I left without buying a thing though because I don't want a mod. It's unfortunate that no attention is given to products for newbies like myself that may, later, get into the mods. But it's their business. Third and last store only sold cigalikes and their proprietary cartridges. I turned around and walked out before he was done saying hello.
Was the one you went to in North KC The Vapor Room? I haven't been there, but I have heard they focus on the mech mods and rebuildable stuff. I honestly didn't check out much of the hardware at KC Vapes when I went there. I was more interested in juice and picking up a Kanger T3s. I think they had just gotten in the Itaste 134 when i was there, as they were opening one that looked like a lightsaber and that one would fit the bill (I was still a noob then and had not seen it before).
Volcano on North Oak would be the place to go up north IMO. They carry a few ego twists and some other ego-style batteries, quite a few Innoken products, Kanger tanks, and Volcano products, at least for now. Bought my vv there, and a couple of clearo tanks as well. Good guys working there - lots of knowledge and pretty laid back.
I went to McVapours in Derby yesterday, they have a good selection of hardware. They don't make their own juice. They do have a big selection of flavors (54). I tried 20-25, didn't really like any of them. I do buy all my flavors from Big-E's, they make them in house and their selection is amazing. Both places offer a military discount. McVapours (10%) Big-E's (15%). McVapours is new and will get better over time but right now Big-E's rocks.
Anyone up for a vaping gathering? I would like to meet some where that allows vaping and BEER drinking. I think it would be fun to meet fellow vapors and discuss vaping war stories. Maybe we could get the local vape stores to join us and give us some pointers and great discounts. I live in the Southeast part of town so maybe some where around Rock or hell any where would be fun.

The Vapor Room was the place, if your looking for some nice Mods that is one place to check. And yes the light saber lok alike was the 134. Sorry, but it was just not my thing. I wanted to check out volcano but I didn't get a chance. Maybe next time.

Loving the idea of a vape gathering in Wichita sometime. I will have to do some calling around the Wichita area to find a place that is comfortable with a bunch us vapors filling the air with harmless water vapor and not offending fellow patrons. Should be fun! For those not aware of the new e-vaping culture, I'll bet we would get a lot of attention, looks, questions and comments from those around us.

Anyone tried the Kanger mini t3s? I just bought one. I'm really liking it. It's like a micro Version of the Protank. Even uses the same atty. Great vape, good taste, maybe a bit airy on the draw, but still good.
