Pulse squonk mod from Tony B & Vandy Vape

[untar]

Just as a drive-by-conspiracy theory... I was already wondering why gearbest wasn't offering a preorder on the pulse 80W. They have one for the berserker rda from VV, others like FT and 2F/3F had the pulse listed as well, GB usually are knee deep in the preorder business. I found that rather strange.

You think GB knew there would be no pulse 80W with Gene chip?

No Voopoo for me !

That explains some things over the last couple of weeks.

I've no reason to doubt Tony, and I've been around long enough to find his story unsurprising. That said, I'll never purchase a Voopoo product.

The AETHON chip from Ikarno (used in the innokin Oceanus) would be interesting to me. Hopefully the VV chip will be fairly accurate, with reasonably fast firing.

Tony B has always seemed to be a cool guy, so my heart goes out to him. BUT, I'm not convinced the blame is all on VooPoo. Seems like Vandy vape wanted to use their own chip from the beginning. Vandy Vape has their fair share of shady practices under their belt too. I come from a world where handshakes and commitments mean something but entering any deal with the folks over there seems, to me, to be an 'enter at your own risk' situation. With the exception of very few companies, I think all these Chinese companies are in bed together, to some degree. Maybe not Innokin.... but Vandy, VooPoo, HellVape....the list goes on... they'd all be hard to trust.

So what is going on with the pulse 80W??
FT has them listed with the gene chip still? Iyes I watched Tony's video and know what happened but what is up with the pre-order they have listed,are they Tony and VV mod,or are they the device VP stole??

 

[untar]

FT likely just haven't changed their page yet.

 

[markfm]

They likely haven't caught up with the announcement yet. In my case I ended up canceling my pre-order with 3fvape, will reorder once the stuff gets straightened out.

Link to a statement from voopoo in another thread
Boycot Voopoo?

I never liked the name of the company when they launched with the drag mod,and was never a fan of the gene chip. Now that Tony and VV are usuing there own chip (as they should have done) I will be buying one.
I wanted the mod but I just don't like that chip. Things have changed now?? I hope??

Sucks for Tony B. I have a couple of his atties and was looking forward to trying his regulated mod that had a chip that seemed to be widely well-regarded.

I'm a fan of his and feel bad that he seems to have gotten screwed by VooPoo.

I have requested a refund of my pre-order from e-ciggity for the time being (hopefully, there won't be much hassle). I'm going to wait until there are product reviews out for the new chip before deciding on purchasing.

Until then I'm good with my current regulated, and unregulated, squonk mods...

 

[t8kiteasy]

Yes it sucks what VP did but he and VV are still going forward with the original plan using there own chip?
At least that is what he said in the video. I know it's not what Tony wanted but at least the mod will still be made.

 

[puffon]

Give it a couple weeks...VV will clone the VP chip...

As this has turned into another "boycott" thread, closing. We do not bash vendors on ECF.
