Good morning all.... Located in Gibraltar

I have been lurking around this site for awhile now. Nice to know there are people in Michigan that vape. I get the strangest looks from people but I love it.

/gives you a strange look......Greetings!.....

I know what you mean....went to Mackinac Island this weekend with the family......while they went into the umteenth t-shirt store I sat on a bench outside and vaped......had two people come up and ask me if that was one of those "fake" cigarettes......I was using a passthrough wired to a battery pack I carry in a pouch around my neck and that never fails to draw the eye.....

on a side note, why have some folks sold out and advertise their stores as MackinaW.....

CHM....I was going to take my family to Mackinac Island last week while we were in the Grand Traverse area. Kids didn't want to take another road trip so we cancelled. Maybe next year! Are they really spelling it Mackinaw now?.....LOL....Easier for the out-of-towners to pronounce I guess!

Welcome btng. I have a friend in the Carlton/flatrock area that I gave all my old 901 stuff to on memorial weekend. Gotta give him a call to see if he's still using it.
Hope you can make it to the next MI vapefest.

Would love to try to make it to the next meet. One of these days I'll upgrade but at the moment I'm just trying to find the right go to juice. Still on the original one I bought about a month ago. I think it's an m401.

Nuthouse? Sounds like I'll fit right in.

More warm welcomes....Thank you!

Yeah I know y'all are chucklin.....a 401. Well, it was a purchase on a whim cause I thought hmmm, cool little gadget. I have a tendency to like little gadgets. And, I couldn't wait for shipping so I went to the local smoke shop......jst a tad impatient too, go figure.

Yeah, I've been eyeballing those mods.....pretty cool looking. Maybe someday when the cash is flowing freely.....hopefully not in the too distant future!!!

My first kit was a 401. Branded "Health-e-Cigarette. Made good vapor, as good as the 901 I switched to. The batteries were nearly worthless though. First one stuck on and burned up 3 days after I got it. They replaced the one that was D.O.A.
I know folks who swear by those attys though.
Ain't no shame in that game.

I've had two batteries just up and quit on me already. The smoke shop I got it from has replaced them and so far no probs.......maybe it was operator error?? I drip my e-juice and those batteries quit in my learning curve. He says he usually stocks the atty's as well. I think I will pick up a couple from him. I think he said they're $7 each. I thought that was a decent price seeing as I don't have to pay shipping and he's close by. (instant gratification)......

I'm keeping my eyes open for the one that would be just perfect for me!

I don't know..... I had really bad luck with those and I was still using their prefilled carts

$7.00 is a decent price. Pretty much in line with online venders.

That could take a while. I keep finding new stuff I want all the time. The best factory made PV I have right now is my Riva. It's a 510 "eGo" type PV but I use a 510 to 808 adapter and run kr808 cartos on it. I like the 808 cartos better than the 510 cartos.
