That sux,sorry you have been having bad luck.I guess you checked a couple ?Whats the point of the ego top if you need an adapter is it for some other reason ?
I think some of my bad luck is due to my own personal ignorance, I did not ask specifically for a version that allowed a CE4, so perhaps I was taken advantage of and given something older. I just don't know.
Not sure about why they would make it like this, seems pretty ignorant to other devices. I am sure there was a reason for the design, just not sure what it is. It's an awesome device to be sure, works extremely well, so it's not a quality thing, just a "ce4 well" issue. an adapter takes care of that.
Eric do you think will be getting kanthal wire and wicks perhaps SS mesh. I know you had kanthal and wicks before I had them in my wish list along with some flavoring I wanted to try out. So will you have any of it back.
To be completely honest, I have had to stop spending, (on new stuff, not sellers, T2 innards are due this week for instance) but there are lots of things I want to get but working for no realized profit is very difficult, if I hadn't had a recent spate of bad products it wouldn't be a problem, but it's been a really poor 45 days, I have 160 DCT tanks with primer liquid in them, I have 800 replaceable coils that do not fit anything, 100 batteries that are crap quality and the list goes on. There have been a few late nights where I was in a "throw in the towel" mood. One of my best friends in my vendor circle just gave up and packed it in, that's depressing because he was a lot like me.
I have two new items I really like in front of me, one a new rebuildable "K2" (just as a reference, not it's real name) that has vaped really well and not leaked at all and a elips type dual carto tank (two cartos in the tank) that is also leak free and has great flavor. (It's not an elips, just looks similar)
But I can't buy them, I am over extended already.

I also found a manufacturer that has sent me some really good versions of my most popular products (I hesitate to say "copy" or "knockoff" because they are actually better). This manufacturer is so far honest, on time, helpful and determined to get my business. He actually went out an bought a packaging machine and poly to pack them how I asked them to be packed. (note: I know that sounds like a load of bull, but in this case, I actually believe him) first sample packing was cheap thin poly, second after I asked for a change was professional good packing. He's also the first one to ever send me anything without paying for it.
The only problem is the "name". I can't sell them for what they are not, that wouldn't be honest on my part but at the same time I know they won't sell nearly as well (or at all) as the "name" product so I cannot support this manufacturer as much as I want to. I know just based on what he's done so far that the Nova, the Mini and the new rebuildable CE4+ (thor, vision) would all be equal or better than the "original"
One of my most popular products is the CE4+, here on my desk sits an item that is exactly the same, even with a magnifying glass I cannot see any difference at all, I think maybe the under side center ring on the connector post is a hair thinner but that could be my imagination. I can't tell you how impressed I am, to the point of thinking it's better, maybe it is, maybe it isn't it could be my desire to believe it is better, not sure. But I haven't tested a bad one yet, they all vape certainly as well as the name brand.
But what do I do? Stop getting the "name" brand to support this "new to me" manufacturer? Potentially lose sales because of the name? Try to start support for a new one?
In my opinion, I think this manufacturer is the one that supplies all the parts to the rest and is just now getting into direct distribution. I can't be sure of course, but I think so.
I think my best course of action is to brand them "DV" and be done with it. See what happens.
I've put them on the website here:
DV eGo CE4+ Clearomizer - V2 - Clear
I'd appreciate any advice about this from you all, I don't pretend to know what's best or what will work or not work. But I have to do something, I can't keep rolling the dice with manufacturers. It's killing me.
