Help me spend my money

If they used high quality plastic I wouldn't mind I want glass fiber reinforced polypropylene not crappy abs.



Imho zinc is tough enough, the Aeqis is Zinc Alloy and can survive getting run over by a car. Like you said it depends what alloy they're using because they're is quite a few.

So can plastic. I’ve got plastic chock blocks for my car. The problem with zinc alloy is it behaves more like concrete than like metal. It doesn’t bend, it cracks and crumbles. Again there are a lot of different mixes with different characteristics. The problem is the ones that cast like plastic (which are the ones used in ecigs) generally have problems in other ways. Zinc alloy. IS better than plastic. It’s vastly more vibration resistant for one thing ( not that that matters much with ecigs). It’s just not as good as other metals . Whether it’s good enough for you is a choice you make of course. I’m speaking generally

My order of preference is Stainless Steel > Aluminum > Zinc > Wood > Plastic. Although there aren't a whole lot of wooden mods. I wouldn't mind having one made of bone or animal horn of some sort just for coolness factor, but not sure that would be feasible.

Thanks for the suggestions, comments, and entertainment everyone! I just felt like I should follow up - I ended up going into a brick-and-mortar store near me and mentioning the Innoken and the Smoant specifically... But because of price and stock, I ended up walking out with a Smok T-Priv and a TFV12 prince tank.

While it might not have been mentioned at all here, it's been awesome so far. No spitting, huge power, and it's metal and seems pretty durable except for the screen, which is kinda cheap. It can hit like a hammer though! I actually had to switch from the 12mg juice I was using to a 6mg one - I was getting headachey lol.

A bit of a side-note, this forum has been an amazing resource. I steered my dad this way since he's a pretty heavy smoker, and now he's asking if he can have my aio haha. I've also got plenty of good suggestions next time I feel like splurging.

Preciate y'all!

Awesomely awesome.

Fair warning, beware the green smiling emoji.

Just as an FYI/Followup, I told my wife what I said back on page 1 about how he should "talk to my wife, she spends money like she is the US government". She laughed and said "Yeah I'll help him spend ALL of his money."
