What's up ECF? I'm JeffLambert1946, and I figured I would join the forum. It can't hurt, right? Anyway, let me give you some background.

I've tried vaping about a year and a half ago, but I didn't feel like investing my own money into it. About two months ago is when I started getting into it more. My first buy was a Kangertech Topbox Mini, never looked into the cigalikes, but the Topbox was bumming me out a little bit. It was always leaky, it would drain 2300mAh batteries in a few hours tops, and those coils were always a pain to setup right.

I began looking into other products. Specifically cigalikes, which I hadn't considered before, and I ended up enjoying the cigalikes more than the mods. Got myself a MigCig, and my current favorite, the Njoy Recharge. Guess I'm an exception to the vaper's progression thing. Any other cigalike fans on board?

Thanks for having this forum open for public use, and I hope you have a nice day.

Hello and welcome.:toast: I'm a mod and rba user, but like to try out some cigalikes(disposables) from time to time to see if they are improving. A good cigalike(disposable) at a reasonable price would be a huge step. Most of them don't last very long and the sellers seem to want to extract a bit too much money out of them.

I admit, the disposables are a bit expensive in some areas, but where I live the taxes are outrageous. A pack of Marlboro is $11, while a Blu or Njoy King is $6-8, so the disposables end up costing almost half that of a pack unless you're smoking a budget brand (which is still not that far off.)

Welcome and glad you joined.

That's how I started also. I have read quite a few sob stories about folks going into intermediate and advanced systems without mastering the basics. There are many advantages of certain "cigalikes" (I call them tube mods, although, nothing is really adjustable on them) that doesn't meet the eye. It drives me crazy when I hear disparaging comments on this type of vape. Good for you.

Hey welcome to the forums.
Yeah I guess those who appreciate cigalikes are few and far between but I may be on my way there.
I started vaping back in June and have steadily progressed backward into the 'retro' type vape gear. Very happy with Evods and low power VV Mods. I've become very curious about a cigalike with refillable tank called the 'Mistic Bridge' recently. Gonna have to get hold of one to try.

Never heard of the Mistic Bridge albeit a cigalike with a small tank is appealing. I ordered some Kanger tanks that screw onto an 808d for my MigCig just out of curiosity, also getting some tobacco juice from MBV since it's inexpensive. We'll see how it goes.

I read that the Mistic Bridge was available at Walmart. Full kit for $10 just the tank for $5. 3 tanks available to fit different cigalike batteries. Went to my local Walmart right after writing the post you quoted but they didn't have it. Walgreen's supposedly has them at full price $15. Haven't gotten there to look yet.
