Pronouncement: KR808D-1 = Kreight!

[DonDaBoomVape]

NOTICE: It is a great device, but I am sick and tired of typing and saying "KR808D-1" (kay-are-ate-oh-ate-dee-one)!

And I do not choose to favor any particular supplier's brand name, as easy as that might be for a kingly ace ritevaper such as me (even when nhaling nebulous mist).

Henceforth, I shall call this the "Kreight!"

You may follow my fine example, using terms like kreightbatt, kreightomizer, and kreightjuice ... or you may let it flounder in obscurity and death.

 

[Raenon]

If for no other reason than replacing the "cartomizer" term (which gets inevitable shortened to "carto", ew), I support kreightomizer.

That's at least 5th level awesome.

 

[Guineahill]

I like it! And I can see that it will eventually become Kr8. And that will be even easier to type! Ah....

 

[fourplay]

i second the kr8

 

[ThaLadyD]

Kreight for speech is much better than KR808D-1, but i think it's too close to crate. But then, KR8 for puter use would be sweet!

KV for Kr808d-1 Vaporizer instead of PV? For speech maybe?


I dunno

 

[ProfessorDaffy]

I vote for KR8, too! I'm tired of typing it out. Even "Vapor King" is a handful. At least the Joye 510 has a cute nickname. But nobody calls it a YETI much since 510 is easy to type.

Reminds me of the movie Creepshow...

--Prof Daffy
P.S. KR8 idea!

 

[Drozd]

I like it...A LOT...and will commence to stealing and using it forthwith.. as I just ordered and received a kreight today..and have been getting tired as well as typing out KR808D-1.
I also do not favor a particular vendor's name for it as I think Vendor specific names help complicate things when newbies are trying to research different e-cig models..

Now all we need is a spokesman to help get your word out about the new name...Maybe Tony the Tiger holding one aloft and proclaiming "It's Kreight!!"

oooh and what marketing that could be..comes in a black and stainless crate with airholes...

 

[Kelemvor]

@DoDaBoVa, Kreight seemes ok, although whats the KR808 called then ?

as i see it, the "D" is for Disposable Cart for the cartomizer version, no ?

making that the Kreigh-dy or Craidy ~something ?

Well done, Guineahill!

...Now all we need is a spokesman to help get your word out about the new name...Maybe Tony the Tiger holding one aloft and proclaiming "It's Kreight!!"...

Great (scratch that) Kr8 idea, Drozd!

This, folks, is brainstorming at its best! It appears we have consensus:

• It is spelled: Kr8
• It is pronounced: Kreight
• Our mascot/announcer is: Tony the Tiger

Using your team's idea is not theft, Drozd, especially for a major contributor.

KR808, KR808a, KR808b are little known, little used devices. I often see KR808D-1 loosely refered to as KR808.

If you get back to me within 24 hours (so I can edit this), Kelemvor, I would be pleased to add you to the list a signatories. I just didn't want to presume.

 

[Kelemvor]

sure you are right Don i was only a bit nitpickung or is it nutcracking ? anyways, the KR8 is the way to name it

 

[Madame Psychosis]

You are the Sultan of Sly Sobriquets and the Czar of Clever Cognomens, Don, lord of BoomVape. We bow.

I almost kroasted my kreightomizer, I was so entranced by this thread.

Done! You are a Kr8 team player, Kelemvor!

No, no, no, Madame Psych! This was a team effort! I bow right back at ya!
[Cognomens? Had to look that up.]

Committee Members: Take a look at the new thread in the General E-Smoking Discussion forum.

 

[Katmar]

What a wonderful thread.
Here's hoping Kreight Kringle is good to you!!!

 

[Guineahill]

I think this is a Kr8 idea! I really hope it catches on. We must now carry this out and share with the masses!

 

[ThaLadyD]

KR8ers = the kr808d-1 ers

 

[40bikes]

If as a noobie I might be so presumptious as to proffer my enthusiastic endorsement, Kreat it is. (Sorry Don, using you as an excuse to up my post count toward 15 and become legit) bikes

 

[Joe81]

i just call it the 808, but kr8 would be good too...i duno about kreight though.

808 is good too; same number of characters. But it has three syllables. Kr8 is a short and sweet one syllable. It enables the use of a neat mascot/proclaimer (Tony) ... and it has been "officially" proclaimed!

It's Kr8!

 

[Taryn]

KR8 it is for me too then! Great idea!
