Yes, that’s true. There’s always haters out there. I could be going for a Smoant Battlestar, or a Kayfun Prime, and there’s going to be criticisms towards my choices.
Haters are always gonna hate, huh? LOL
This is the worst place to come for shiny-itis problems haha! I haven't tried it but I can give you some hatred if that will help? It's awful! It will die on you, explode and give you super cancer the first time you take a toke!
Not sure it's quite a guilty pleasure this one, but I often find myself tempted to vape the unvapable/unsafe substances. I make massage oils for my girlfriend, well, to rub on her - I make them for myself because I'm cheap and enjoy experimenting with aromatic things really. There's about 20 ml in a 30 ml vial - the same kind that I make test juices in before making full batches (having finally learned my lesson after throwing away 180ml of unvapable mint choc chip). You can probably see where this is going. I juiced up one of my rda's and noticed it smelled of lavender. I didn't vape it - just removed the wicks, burned the coils a bit until it stopped smelling of lavender and then some. Rewicked it and its fine apart from that new wick taste. But burning it off, oh my god it smelled amazing and I can't help but wonder how it would have tasted if I tried a hit before removing it.
Whenever I've worked with benzaldehyde...its hard to describe how gorgeous it smells. You know that harp sound played before a character has a nostalgic memory in a TV show or whatever? That's how benzaldehyde smells. Like dreams. Good dreams. Good dreams and amaretto, the nectar of the gods as I call it. The temptation to dilute some in VG and see how good it tastes nearly out weighs the monumental cancer risk.

I confess that I'm still vaping on gear from 5 years ago. I found my vaping nirvana (Super-T ELA + Art of Exhale Gryphon) and just kind of left to pursue other hobbies. Now that I'm no longer spending $100 a month on smokes I can afford stuff like home theater gear and expensive headphones.
Anyway, here it is 5 years later, and the vaping world has passed me by. Imagine you've been in prison for 20 years and just got out. Self-driving cars are a thing. Floppy disks are gone. Mobile phones can now access the entirety of human knowledge, but people use them mostly to watch cat videos and get into arguments. That's sort of how I feel with the vaping world.
Last time I stumbled into a vape shop I was so lost. All the vapers I see nowadays are toting a DNA mod with power equivalent to a kitchen appliance and some sort of tank filled with burnt juice, inhaling straight from the atty like an asthma inhaler and blowing out obnoxious clouds. How do people find that natural to go from cigarettes to puffing on a tailpipe?
I never see anyone with a mech mod when I'm out and about. Do people still vape on a single non-micro coil on a mech mod these days? Does anyone chase flavor over fog production anymore? I suppose I should be happy for them that they're no longer smoking though.

I've never understood that either.
I do -- nothing but -- mechanical squonkers -- generally with a single, barely sub-ohm (~0.75) coil.
I don't really care that the vape world has moved on. It's my happy place; it keeps me from smoking, and the gear I've got will last a lifetime.
I chase flavour but produce pretty large clouds too - not bro clouds but quite substantial compared to cigarettes. In my case I started using pens and then found that more clouds kinda helped reduce the cravings for .... hits too.
I think I'm going to have to experiment with that - although it smelled great I'm not sure how palatable it will be inhaled haha
I use jasmine, honeysuckle, and hibiscus to mix with. Haven't tried lavender yet. Love floral vapes.
Only using spaced high ohm coil ( 1.3ohm currently ), only using 22mm RTA for flavor, low wattage (6W-ish )
Still not interested by the current fashion of tiny ohm coil, big cloud, nuclear power box mod and so ^^
I suppose there's always been a divide among different vaping methods. In my day it was 510 vs. 306 vs. eGo and other mass produced atties and cartos, squonk or drip or tank, carto tank or RTA, armageddon-proof mech versus the great now but possibly dead on the side of the road after the government crackdown ProVari. Anyway, I guess spaced coil vs. jig wrapped vs. Clapton is just one more facet.
Umm. Speaking of ProVari, here's another confession. I completely missed ProVape's closing. What the hell? And vape inspections? Edit: I've been informed that my knee jerk reaction to assign blame for this was misplaced. I sincerely apologize.

Where his political rant belongs.
I think this point is safe to argue here:
Well, if Scott Gottlieb hadn't given us a reprieve from the previous administration's policies, we'd be looking at a near total ban come this summer. Instead, Gottlieb punted that into 2022. So...
I think you may have seen the original, a momentary attack of rational thought told me I might need to tone it down.
