So what do you guys think of rip trippers and his reviews??

Idk I dont think he is a bad dude but still hiding a bunch of details from his reviews! Why not be open lol?

But he is a funny dude and very very informative which is why I watch him over the other guys

Rip= crazy but tons of knowledge

Vapping twisted 420= funny as hell but not much knowledge

Grim= a werido!!

what you guys think?

I go with PBusardo

Clear and informative. Covers enough that if something is amiss you may pick up on it. Has no problem calling Bad Product as it is and is politely responsive to information corrections.

Grimm is a wash - to befuddled to often
RIP Was one of my Favored informative reviewers until All the Bug EYES and Ultra Chopped Videos.

Vaping 420 - To new and trying to hard to prove himself as the new kid on the block. From New Vaper to know-it-all in a matter of months.

I kinda like Grim Green. He led me in the right direction as I made my way up the ladder of vaping. Never watched Rip Tripper cuz' he was doing rebuilds and I wasn't ready for all that. Busardo seems gruff but after watching a few of his long reviews he kinda grows on ya. I like the fact that Rip reviews clones as well as authentics. Guess I'll watch a few of his vids.

I watch them all, but only when I'm looking for opinions and exposure to new devices. Phil Busardo is my favorite reviewer and source for information. Rip is entertaining and a good reference for coil building on various devices. Rip does efficient video editing. I don't mind his aggressive, cut it to the bone editing. It gets to the point and doesn't take so much of my time. Grim Green gets my mouse click if he's doing something I'm interested in.

But that description fits about 99% of ECF'ers. He doesn't pretend to know it all....and that's why I enjoy watching. Always good for a laugh. He's built some ....ty coils, but at least he admits it. lol

I prefer grimmgreen. He talks very calmly and always explains everything and has a "teacher" kind of attitude that I enjoy. I also like twisted as he doesn't censor himself and tells it like it is.

I liked RIP trippers. He introduced me to vaping and it was him that got me to buy my first ego. So I will always be grateful to him for that. I just... In my own personal opinion I feel like his popularity is going to his head. And he only reviews very high end mods.

(And I wish he would do a follow up review on the reo because his review is very old)

Watch rip trippers for his rebuilding videos but I fast forward where he gets annoying. My question is how come my ejuice doesn't get my eyes all glazed like his do? When he's actually rebuilding he does great work

Twisted is good I like him. He keeps it real

Never watched Grimm.

I fast forward like crazy through pb

I prefer Twisted. He reviews authentics AND clones....and he keeps it real.

Not everyone can afford all the high end gear Busardo gets heaped on his doorstep for free everyday.

The main difference between Busardo and a lot of others are he will tell you if that free $250 mod is a POS.

I don't find he only reviews high end stuff. He's reviewed Vamos, egos and other low end batteries and clearomizers. Only the other day he posted a vid on the iPV 50 - which can hardly be described as a high end device.

I watch most of the reviewers mentioned. Rip Tripper is entertaining to me. All the reviewers mentioned have their use and entertainment factor. That being said. For me Pbusardo is absolutely my favorite and has the most up to date info, and he even takes the time to respond to people's comments on his you tube videos. That speaks volumes about his character. He definitely gets my vote.

Not sure what you mean by "still hiding a bunch of details from his reviews". What details are you referring to? And if you already know "ALL" the details why are you watching reviews?

I watch his reviews just for something to do. Since most of the time he reviews RDA's and Mech's. I have no real interest in either of those products. As far as I'm concerned one RDA or Mech is like any other, something I will never own or use.

All his videos are of products he likes. He does get product he doesn't like but never does reviews of them. Which IMHO is doing a disservice to his subscribers.

PBusardo does reviews of the Good, the Bad and the Ugly and always give you straight talk about them.

I do subscribe to RT but only so I am notified of new review. I usually fast forward through most of it. He's probably a very nice guy.

GG I use to subscribe to then unsubscribed as I found him annoying. Especially with the beer and music junk he inserts to some of his videos. Also I don't care for the way he does his giveaways. You have to have a Facebook account to enter. I don't have nor do I want a FB account (Had one several years ago and dropped it. No desire to go there again).

As to the other vape vid reviewer you listed I have no comment.
