My first eGo (cheap knockoff before I knew better) bit the dust.

So I opened my vape bag yesterday and my cheap knockoff eGo was in two pieces, wire guts hanging out all over the place. I pushed the wires back in and vaped - no problem. But everytime I touched the thing it would pull apart. I thought about gluing it but I have a thing about mixing toxic glue with electrical wires. I was even worried about charging it while I was gone. So, I picked up its broken body, thanked it for turning me onto the vape scene and knew it had served me well. Then I dumped it into the trash, landing inside an empty tomato soup can. I felt nothing as I returned to the rest of my (genuine/authentic brand) collection of vapes and sent out a cloud in memory of that poor knockoff. I did not cry. I was strong and brave. RIP cheap knockoff.

Perhaps a decent burial and a quiet celebration of its life and the profound effect it had on you is in order.

Where do you think the ones with the stamp came from ?
Mine have split into too pieces and I put them back together used a pare of pliers to crimp them a little ,very little
Haven't split again .from what I have seen the real ones and the nock offs come from the same place ??
I mite be a bit jaded I love my nock offs
