I live in an town best described in O Brother Where Art Thou.. "A geographical oddity.., two weeks from everywhere." So it's concept of just having a bunch of backup supplies and being able to rebuild when needed, is rather appealing.

I'll more than likely pick one up when I order a backup ProVari next paycheck just to try out. I might hit you up asking for the links to those supplies for it if I can't find them when I get off work in a few hours lol!

I really thought RBAs were beyond my level of patience until watching that video and the vapor production on it looked incredible.. The more I watch it, the more I want to try one lol

Let me know, or go check out the rba section, it's a bit slow until the evenings (just FYI) but a great group of guys to work with!
I thought rba's where above my level of eye sight, I'm 40's, after the Vivi, but it's really not that bad, just takes some effort.

I'm 30, just turned lol.

But I work doing quite a bit of precise things with my fingers and hands. Until watching that video I was under the impression the RBAs would just be more complicated.

I think what I'll more than likely do is continue my search for my true all day vape.. After I find that, I'll more than likely invest into the ZAP to use for it (or them if I'm fortunate enough to find several lol)

Kind of curious if the leaking problems you're having will apply to the ZAP as well. I don't carry my Provari around in a pocket, but I'd rather not have anything leak all over the inside of a carry case with all my tanks and batteries.

LOL.. Could just be the RBA ... Most of them were talking about other models it seemed.

In general I can see where even the ZAP could potentially leak but I guess the same could be said for every type of liquid delivery..

My old boss told me he'd never use a tank cause all they did was leak. My reply was, "what kind of cheap DCT set ups did you purchase???" lol.. Not implying your RBA is cheap or anything like that, just going with the overall theory of it depending on the user preference through experience.

I mean even Busardo claims to like the Vivi Novas and I think they're horrid from my experience thus far lol

No, my AGA-T is CHEAP! I know that, and that's why I bought it! This was a "make or break" type deal and I encourage people to either buy the cheapest they can get ahold of or the best they can get ahold of! Either way they aren't out much! The cheap one can sit in a drawer and not hurt anything, the expensive one can be sold for most of what you paid for it!
I used carto's for years, that's all we really had, I've tried dripping several times, all it does is piss me off! About the time it gets good you have to fill the thing up again! It's still the same thing now.
The mega carto's were a God send, I could go a half a day on one, this was HUGE back then! Now with the carto tanks and RBA tanks, it's pud!
I remember having to plan an evening just to sit around and fill carto's so I would have enough, what a PITA! Now I spend two min a day, at most, filling a carto tank, and 10 min every week or so (depending on the carto) filling up a fresh carto and redoing my carto tank! When you chug 10ml a day like I do, it's a major deal!

Oh I know that feeling and I've only been using ecigs and vaping 8 months lol!

I started convenience store brand just to see and went on to V2.. I was going through like 3-4 carts a day with them so I started filling my own from them. Bought a large gauge syringe and would sit there every few days filling up like 15 cartos lol..

Then I saw the Inferno in a YouTube vid using the Volcano tube tank set up, bought it 3 minutes later... After two months with it, I saw a need for VV so went for the Provari..

I just love watching that ZAP vid seeing just how much vapor it can throw out there. I might look into the costs of that Cobra one a lot were mentioning in your thread. Just to see if I, personally, can use RBAs and if I think the vapor production is worth it like you mentioned in testing. If its not much cheaper than the ZAP I'll take your advice and just sell it if it doesn't work out for me LOL!

A TRUE Cobra, not a clone, will cost almost as much as a ZAP, and not look as good on the Provari. If you really want to save a few bucks, watch the classifieds for a Line SS or V2, around $90 used and look good on the ProV, but are a bit small and some leak! (Ask before the purchase!) There are tons of clones out though that can be had for $30 or less if you look in the right places.
I'm on the fence, do I spend more on the cheap ones to see if it works for me, which I already know I can make the AGA and Trivveca work, or just bite the bullet and get what I know I'm wanting and be done!
I swear, it's a disease!

And yeah, once I get that liquid that just hits the spot as an all day vape, I'll go ahead with the ZAP.. if it turns out not for me, like you suggested, just sell it.. Thanks for that link to OKC Vapes, btw.. found them right away when I got home and got on the computer. Very intrigued with the whole RBA concept now, but at the same time, I'm still waiting for the tanks and cartos I ordered with my LAST paycheck to come in, LOL!!

Yeah, there's some on here that you really have to wonder about! If you don't like what they like, well............. Seen it a lot more of late, it's unfortunate, what works for me, may or may not work for you, and that's fine!
Not sure what to tell you on juice, I've only used Vapor 4 life, but they are really overpriced especially with shipping, and my freedom smokes, and I didn't like the Parliament they made. I've found a local vendor that I can get 64ml for $17.50 so I'm going through him anymore, just have to find something to settle on. My taste buds are wigging out and I've got this viral crap that is going around so nothing tastes good right now! I've got a BIG bottle of his "New analog" mixed with peanut butter, which I really liked, but now it's a burnt flavor to me, so I've switched to his "grape koolaid" for the time being.
Hang in there, I've had more than one tift on here, with one member in particular mostly, but there are a few I really have to wonder what realm of existence they are living in!

That's not bad at all for 64ml.. I've got an order still processing through Heathers and another order from EC Blend in the mail.

At some point if my work schedule allowed I'd like to try a couple of Ahlusions blends.

There aren't any local suppliers or retailers within probably 5 hours of where I live so cheaper to stick to websites lol

ahlusions is all i use but since they became really popular...and busy, it takes awhile to get an order in and shipped. if you can catch them its worth it.

That's an issue I'm worried about. I'd have to chance it with my work schedule and/or get lucky ordering over my phone LOL!

I understand stopping orders to keep up but I wish it was more of a weekly basis rather than daily just so I could possibly get an order in when I'm at work from 8am-??? most days
