I agree, Ken A - if any of these vape-supplier companies have a marketing/research department worth its salt, they will be (or should be, lol) cruising the forums to see what their customers want!

Up late today (slept until almost 7!!) and sat outside on my own back porch with my cuppa and said good morning to the mist lady (I love foggy mornings). Need to do some laundry (which will get done), need to clean the house (which may get done, lol), and I'm off to Home Depot to look for drill bits a wood and chalk pens, lol (hey - it's not a vaping indulgence, it's a NECESSITY. Can't possible clean the house with all this vape stuff cluttering everything. Hence, I must vape first, and clean later :D )

I'm not up on all the different gear out there, but so far I don't think there has been a lot of gender-targeted mods. As fast as vaping related "stuff" is moving/progressing these days tho, I wouldn't be surprised to see more of that kind of thing soon enough... hope so, my wife just started vaping... I'd like for her to see the Lily when it debuts, if she wants one I'll be happy to get it for her.

Thanks for the heads-up Kim B.

Awww, what a good hubby you are. A new device could be a good incentive to spark her interest to stick with vaping.

Feminine devices? I thought that's what JWraps were for. They do have some beautiful ones. I recently got some for my devices and it makes it easy for us not to get our gear mixed up and also helps me to remember what flavor is in each one. Usually women have smaller hands and purses so they tend to like the smaller devices. Vendors could build to that idea and put pretty designs on them and appeal to the growing number of female vapers.

I got mine yesterday. They had shut down for three days because of the catastrophic snow-storm :facepalm:. I am going to wait, because I have a fresh duc-wrap. It is pretty, though.

amoret Said:
But, but, but...I really shouldn't be spending any money right now with all of the house confusion, right?....So they should get here before we can close on the house.

Get yourself a post office box. Get all your mail forwarded to there, and you won't miss a thing. I got one a year ago, and have never regretted it. Different reason, but for some people, it is the best option, temporary or long-term.

Besides the Innokin MVP in the Petals design I haven't seen a from the factory mod that I would consider feminine. You can get basic ego batts in feminine designs, the G series are covered in different colors of crystals, they're pretty, but again, just your basic batt. I don't know how comfortable they'd be in the hand, seems like all those crystals might be kinda rough feeling, ya know? Anyone here have one?

I'm hoping that the Lily will be a vv/vw style mod.

They look pretty, but don't look comfortable to me so I don't have any. I don't like the crystal studded pens for that reason, but they do appeal to some people.

I fully admit is suffer from some "personality disorder" sorts of things. I have a pretty extreme form of social anxiety disorder. Just going out to the grocery or to drive the hubby to and from work can be a terrifying experience for me. I for one a grateful for this board. Here I can talk to people and work through the fear without the extreme panic attacks I live with in real life.

If that offends anyone. I will bow out of the thread. I certainly never intended to offend.

Don't think you've ever offended anybody here and NO you don't have to bow out. We'd be very upset if you did.


Doesn't Blu have a social feature that tracks other Blu users nearby? Maybe Blue is really NSA. They could track use through our ecigs! :shock:

That's a voluntary feature though right? Like a way for people to contact other users if they want to get together or need help?

Update - after a bit more research, lol... wow - they make peel-and-stick (like contact paper) chalkboard labels to go with those chalkboard pens (like coffee houses use - cute colours!!). These labels would be perfect to label each hole in a vape-organizer. Just wipe off the chalk and re-name when you change juice! Also, I'm thinking now that instead of buying wood, sanding it, etc., I could get two cheapie large-size breadboards from WalMart, drill out the top one then glue them together!! They'd only need a minimal of sanding and just a quick light oiling - no painting needed.... (brain continues to churn..... must get more coffee....the possibilities are endless....)

I looked at the petals "I" battery set-up. I like it, but I am just not sure how a box would feel in the hand??? Maybe one day, but I don't think I'm quite ready to venture THAT far from familiar-cigarette-shape yet, lol.
It wouldn't be too hard to make a mock-up to see if you could cope with the form factor. I assume you use an eGo type battery with a tank or clearomizer. Just find a friend who still uses analogs, preferably box 100s. Poke a hole in the top of the empty pack (box) near one end big enough for the threads of the battery to fit through. Battery goes inside the box with the fire button oriented to the side of the box so you can squeeze the box to make it fire. Screw down your topper and you have a setup that's close in size to the MVP. If you can't screw down the topper far enough to get the electrical connection needed to fire then make the hole big enough to push the topper through after its been connected to your battery.

Just snarfed a Hunter for less than $30!

BTW, da coupon code I used was 200C12010.

You guys are a bad influence:laugh: Seriously for $30 the Petals will be a perfect mod when I don't want to risk injury or loss my more expensive gear. Thanks for the heads ups...

Question: This morning I decided to try and get my batteries back in some sort of order so I put a PT2 with the air flow control on one of my eGo 1300 Spinners set to 4.1V. Took a drag off of it expecting to get the same taste and vape volume as with my Zmax V3 Tele. Didn't happen......the eGo gave me much better taste and a lot more vapor. Curious about this I changed the same topper to a Vamo V2(?) and got the same great results. Both mods are in 350 mode set to watts comparable to the Spinner volts. Changed the mods to volts instead of watts and the juice tastes slightly scorched and does not give even close to the Spinner vapor volume. What gives?

Thinking more on vape-organizzing..... I was googling hole drill-bits and for about 30 bucks I can get a set of several and drill a hole for a bottle of juice and a hole for the tank/carto next to it that has that flavour in it. But I think that will get too nutso as the size of bottles and tanks will vary. I think the best way to go will be multiple sized holes and those liquid-chalk pens that will erase from any non-porous surface. They'll be easier to use than regular chalk which is very thick....

You probably know this already, but these bits work very good for flat bottom holes and the price is about $20 at Home Depot (7 bits in the kit). :)

The dial adjust on the spinner types is an indication, and may or may not be what you set. Of course, even on a higher end device, it's hard to say how well calibrated they are. The digital readout makes us think they are :)

So 4.1 on the Spinner may not be the same 4.1 on a tube mod.

There may also be differences in the type of circuit used to regulate the voltage, that can make a difference.

Girlie mods - hmmm - just saw this in the Billetbox forum
Warn me to put on shades, I think my eyes exploded. Just the thought of seeing something like that first thing in the morning makes my eyes water. ;)
