Did they fire their design team or what?

It's sad to see them stoop to this level when they used to be a great company, but as they say things change.
So true. Geekvape used to be synonymous with innovation and quality.
It's worth remembering that two of Geekvape's previous head designers went on to build other successful, creative Chinese vape manufacturers:

Stefen Z, designer of the Avocado rdta (amongst others) left Geekvape and started Vandy vape in 2017.
His replacement at Geekvape, Justin Lai (designed the Aegis line and the Zeus range etc) became the founder/head designer at Oxva.

I don’t know if anyone else pays attention to the Geekvape forum or gets emails from them but now they are trying to push all the same old mods but now they are red and white. Seems rather ridiculous to me. Instead of coming up with something new they think “ hey, let’s release the same old stuff but change the color “. Did they fire their design team or what?
I've never found the GeekVape to be anything special in terms of design.
After the first Aegis it's pretty much been the same mod just with some ultra minor changes.

    Just posted my latest review. It's a nice little pocket size kit.

    I think their best designs were pre 2018. Do you remember when the first 26650 Aegis came out? Nobody had mass produced an IP67 rated mod before. It was a brilliant move.

    Morning shinies ;)

    Okay, most of these show up for me. Just wondering if they'll ship to the US. Someone mentioned that they don't.

    Just make an account, stick something in the cart and see what it says under shipping.

    Right now gas is $2.66/gallon and diesel is $3.86/gallon. I live in a region where fuel is cheaper than average, cuz there's not as high of state taxes. $2.70/liter is expensive, not even taking into account the exchange rate on the dollars. That would be a touch over $7 per gallon here, figuring the exchange rate and liters to gallon conversion.
    $2.78 a gallon here where I am currently stuck. The armpit of America. Dallas GA. But home in Burbank CA the average is $5 ish

    From qp I ordered 2 jk mini mr rta along with 10 spare glass. From sourcemore I just got in spare glass for the Hellbeast 2 and gti coils as well as an eleaf i80 stick. Really nice little mod, worthy of its predecessors in performance. Tested for my uncle, my mr was heavier than the mod. lol
    And if you didn't know I have 3 think vape Cratons. Another great mod.
    I love the looks of the Craton! Now that you’ve given the thumbs up I think I’ll try to find one hopefully at a decent price.

    You’ve got some serious vape mail heading your way.

    Thank you for reminding me of backup glass for my RTAs. Since day one if I REALLY liked a RTA then I always bought backup glass. This past year I haven’t bought my glass so I need to figure out which RTAs I’ve bought this year and if I bought replacement glass. I don’t use RTAs as much as I use but I’d absolutely hate not having a supply on hand for some of my favorite ones.

    Happy Caturday Shinies!!

    Now since I’ve got the Blaze Solo RDA up and running I want to get the Nitrous something RDA built as well. Anyone have any experience with the Nitrous RDA?

    I like the blaze a lot but I still need to fine tune it. However my MOST favorite RDA is still the Dead Rabbit v3 RDA. I blows most RDAs out of the water for flavor and clouds. Still haven’t made up my mind which of my RDAs single coils is my favorite. I have several that I like plus a few still brand new and waiting to be built.

    So that is on my To Do list this weekend.

    I got vape mail. I preordered this quite a while back and it finally arrived today from 3f. Now I need to dig out a blue tank to go with it.
    Would love to know your thoughts after using it for awhile. At first glance, It looks a little too boxy for me.

    She is so damn beautiful - but not amused by the camera! I saw somewhere that they have a Nitrous RDTA due out soon.
