A few weeks ago I was walking down Queens BLVD and walked past this guy taking a huge throat hit on his APV. I didn't get a good look at it. But I wanted to whip out my Provari with AGA TD on top and say, "Hey! What you got there?" While I sucked on mine. But this is NYC so I didn't say anything. Talking to strangers, even saying good morning isn't a common thing in NYC...

The only ecigs I see out in public are usually just small basic ego setups with some sort of basic clearo like a ce4 or something like that. When people see me with my MVP2 (usually with an iclear30s) they are surprised about its size and think it's something really wild lol. I just tell them it's a more ''fancy'' ecig, even though there's MUCH more fancier ones out there. The only other person I ever see with something more than an ego is a friend of mine who also has a MVP2. We actually got them on the same day from 101vape. I sent him the link after I ordered one.

In the past six months in Miami (F.L.) I've started noticing a lot more mods around town. Everything from a Provari, with a Protank. To a Nemesis, with a sub-ohm Nimbus. Vaping has exploded here! Even the head shops have a.p.v's for sale! Not to sure about having mechs readily available for anyone who wanted one. Considering the clerks have little to no knowledge about battery safety. They usually ask me "what the he'll is this, and how does it work? " But im happy that vaping has becoming a part of the Miami scene!

Nice! Only time I have seen someone using something other than a pen or cigalike is when I have met up at the bar with guys from a local B&M. Normally I am the odd man out with my mod. Now not only do I get Non-smokers, and smokers asking me about it, but I also get vapers asking as well LOL.

Nice?

uh;; ok, you probably don't know what the coolfire 2 looks like:

A guy walks into a gas station with that?

He'll probably try going to a bank with it too.

And the no vaping icons are going to get added to the no smoking signs.
 
Only place I have ever seen anyone else with a mod other than me is the local pool hall. I go down there from time to time to play poker, and shoot some pool. Its also one of the few places here in Wisconsin that doesnt give a crap about people vaping indoors. I suppose its always fun hanging out with the smokers in the smoking section outsie and having to have the long discussion about what vaping is...I could go without the icky smoke however..

How about telling them it only costs about the price of 2 or 3 ego twists, but holds much more charge, AND its a passthrough, AND it has Power control (VW).

The average person wouldn't realise that it really is a big battery with features; when you do realise that, it makes sense to buy the big battery and not the small batter.

Egos are a good starter mod. I was happy with mine until I heard the "testimonials" about how much APVs make everything better!

i don't see many mods here other than b&m.. I don't go out much though... Grocery store occasionally. I pull out my pv (probably APV now) in the parking lot. Got some funny looks like "What the heck is that!?"
