NEWBEE here to ask an opinion,as I've narrowed my choice.

[Water 4 Fuel]

HI,
I've been looking at E cigs for awhile.
Haven't bought yet and have been trying to do my reseasrch.
The only ecig that has been in my mouth is: a Blu disposable that I got at Walgreens.
I bought it,to see if I could really go the E cig route.
It wasn't real good,but I can definately live with it.
I know there are GOOD ones out there that I'll definately like.
I plan to fill my own and try different Juices.
My wife is going to do this with me.
She wouldn't want something Big,like an Ego,so I'm probaly going with a 808.
I hope I said the right one.
Definately don't want anything made in CHINA !!!!
I would be scared to even put the E cig in my mouth (who knows what is in the material.
I wouldn't vape any of their juice on a DARE or a BET !!!!!
I've been leaning toward the V2 or the Halo G6.
But now I'm leaning toward the Bloog.
So that it; V2,Halo or Bloog.
What's your opinion??!!

Better forget about e-cigs then.

There are always these.

Heh...ummmm about that China thing. Yeah, pretty much every electronic device in the world has components from or is assembled in China.

There are quite a few juice makers who are based in the US...however, whether the bases they use are made in the US or not is another story.

I think your kinda stuck with Chinese electronics. Close your eyes and enjoy!

 

[dearme]

All the ones you listed are made in China. You would have to at least go to a mod to get made in USA, at least I think so. Nothing smaller than a mod comes to mind that made in the US.

Unfortunately, unless your going to purchase a tub mod, most likely the ecig you pick was made in China.
Thats okay though, and their not all garbage if you make the right purchase.
The V2 is very overpriced and I wouldnt get that. If you want a slim ecig, the Volt from SI seems to be the most popular and gets pretty good reviews, but the Halo g6, Bloog, and ones from Vapor4life are decent too.
I would consider getting a bigger battery PV though if its not an absolute necessity that your ecig looks like a real cig. Even the best slim ecig has small batteries and needs to be recharged frequently. Also slim ecigs can only use standard resistance attys and cartos.
A bigger battery PV will give you a LOT better battery life and will give you alot more options for things you can use since bigger battery PVs can use low resistances and standard resistances. The E-Power, Riva, eGo, and kGo are all solid bigger battery PVs that are alot better. They are all similar in size and provide much longer battery life than a slim ecig. They are also the same price if not cheaper than most slim ecigs.

Still fairly new myself, but I agree with others, most ecigs are made in china or at least the circuitry was, but you can get U.S made juices if you feel safer that way. You have a good little list narrowed down there, they all look good to my newb eyes. Perhaps the Halo, have you looked into Cig2o? they are a nice kr808d-1 (or similar, i've heard that if you open the battery it is not a 808d-1 but very similar in size.)

 

[dearme]

There are quite a few eliquids made in the US and that are made with US tobacco.

+1 for the Volt. Solid pen style PV and liked by many here.

WOW that's really helpful.. Look true most stuff is made in china (is what it is) The device you choose will come from China, The juice/liquid is a different story. And also the device you choose is just the beginning of a endless road.. I learned just as the rest of us have. We all started on something like what your looking at. Myself I still used the bluecig I love it.. But that's also a point what you like some hate ect. Read around and ask questions before you buy, that will save you money. Here is a link to a great group of people that will help and they make the juice in-house E Cig : Joye eGo & eGo-T | Boge Leo | Cartomizers | E-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes | eGo Tank .. I also have the Halo and Crown 7 kits. In my opinion they both really aren't that great. You pay shipping and I'll send them to you as soon as I get home.. Your really better off looking for a kit that gives you options to grow with.. Ego T style kits let you do just that.

 

[dearme]

Some of the US made mods that come to mind are the Reo, Provari, Darwin, GLV, and I'm sure there are some more.

All my PVs are US made except for possibly some of the innards......

You are going to have to give a little on some of your requirements before we can make useful recommendations.

 

[Los Marauder]

I'm sure its made in china, but the SmokeTip brand has 350mah batteries available. A little more than 1/2 the battery life of a small Ego(650mah). It is not in their kit though, you do have to buy it alone. It would be slightly bigger than a reg cigarette. They have a life time warentee on all cigs, so you don't have to worry about quality. For your money you can do better but for small size and long smoke time this is a great option. May check out PureSmoker as many of their products are made in the states. Good luck. there are some amazing people here that can help you out.

I agree about the Volt. A very good an reliable KR808 device. You could also look in to Vapor 4 Life and Elite Vaporworks. Both have had great reviews.

Hitman1914- That so such an amazing offer. 77 posts and aredy fully commited to the ECF comunity. Hope you win the lottery, or get a wish come true.

 

[Sweeney Todd]

If you're interested in a Bloog, get a Volt instead. Great reviews, significantly cheaper. The units are indistinguishble.

 

[Hittman1914]

Thanks man................

That some vendors claim USA liquids means nothing to me. They are completely unregulated. I always picture some folks sitting at a kitchen table with the dog at their feet. The ones that claim to make each bottle as you order it should definitely be avoided.

 

[Hittman1914]

Really unless you are standing in front of them as its made.. Surely my eyes aren't going to lie to my brain!
