Maybe you should move on from trying to push a cheap Chinese device on me....beside's, I don't even vape anymore!!

The reason is I purchased a quality device that was able to help me reach my end goal which was to quit vaping. That device is something you yourself has even mentioned to being overpriced, so lets just get over all this as Classy asked earlier and get back to the topic of the thread!!

Maybe you should Go Back and Re-Read what I have Posted. Because I'm not trying to "Push" any Mod on Anyone. Because frankly, it Doesn't Really Matter what Mod someone else uses (or in your case, doesn't use).

Just seems a Tad Silly for you to Keep Beating the "Cheap Chinese Devices" drum everywhere you go. Especially on Products you have Never Used.

Maybe you just Hate the Chinese?

They're made for vapers. Period. If a vaper chooses not to buy, that's on them. But they're not made for a soecific group or class.

And now, porn...

Yes, I definitely prefer to think of vaping society as class-free, though I know it's not. But then, I'm someone who puts Grey Poupon on Nathan's hot dogs, so what do I know?

"Better", as in Better Mousetrap, is a Subjective word.

I have had the Luxury of comparing the 2 Side by Side. Using Identical RDA's. With Identical Builds and the Same e-Liquid. As for Performance, just Didn't see any big Differences.

So to some, a Better Mouse Trap would be a Similar Mod at a Much More Affordable price that wasn't a 1-to-1 Clone.

I say if someone wants a High End Mod that perform Very Well, buy a CC. It was a Very Nice Mod. And if someone wants to spend 25 Bucks and get something that performs Very Well, buy a CV.

It all just kinda gets down to what One wants. And How Much they are willing to Pay for It.
Better is...
Simply...

Better.

Better for a particular individual might have to consider price and availability.

A mouse trap that sells more because it's cheaper isn't necessarily a better mouse trap.

It's simply a more available mouse trap.

My point exactly. CV didn't clone the CC. Whatever they did with the pics before release was wrong, but they didn't clone the CC. They didn't even attempt to clone the CC. They obviously could've....rather easily , but they didn't. They made a nice affordable aluminum squonker. Hats off to them for that....for the money, it's a steal.
The cc is a flawless, handcrafted piece of art. It's made for people who have an appreciation for very high end pieces and are willing to spend the money for one. The CV is made for people who want an aluminum squonker that works great but they don't want to miss a car payment for one.
I get it, "we're all vapers"....but what does that have to do with anything?
Not to mention performance.

My CC is always cooler than the battery and the atty even where there's contact.
Saying "They're not made for the same group of vapers." smack of elitism, and drives a wedge into community. That's all... not trying to start an argument...

CV isn't for me.

After my Grands I'm not willing to force another mod to work with my builds.

Does that make me elite?

Shawn, it is not elitist to want the best. I am no rich man, but when I buy something I try & get the best I can afford. That way I only have to buy it once. I have a Stainless Steel CC, & it goes with me everywhere. It has been dropped on concrete, tile (which it broke) and in the mud. Thing is it just keeps working like the day I bought it. If I had gotten a cheaper mod to carry around I who'll have had to replace it several times & spent more than I have on the CC. Asbestos didn't mean to hurt your feelings by his comment. Truth is the CC & the Pinches (& previous versions) are simply the best there is for squonkers. I started with a dripbox & when I learned that I liked squonking I saved my cigar money until I could get a reo. Then I saved for the sscc because I knew it would be a tough mod. Turns out it hits better than the reo too. Being a guy that loves to work with beautiful wood I fell in love with the pinches so I saved for one of those. I just like things to work the way they are supposed to.
Just a few cartons worth. ;)
It isn't "elitism" if the majority of cheap Chinese device owners won't buy a device because of price point as quite a few have that defend their purchase of said cheap Chinese devices!! Therefore it would seem that a CC, Pdib, or Big Apple mod would be for a different group of vapers as was mentioned!!
But obviously their "defense" isn't insulting to "the elitists".

I imagine my 13yr old playing his game cube and calling every one with an Xbox an elitist snob. [emoji38]

Yeah... Better can be Many Different Things to Many Different People.

In this case, the "Better Mouse Trap" was Not making a 1-to-1 Clone of another Product. But to incorporate Enough new design so that it Wasn't.

You know...

It's impossible to take the high road after hypocritically telling me how despicable I am behind the scene...

And asking me to never respond to your posts because you're such a better person than i...

And here after all this time I've gone out of my way to not even read your posts I'm dealing with this ridiculous, insufferable, relentless, petty, purposeful argument? :blink:

What a stand up guy!

Again!

You got the CHEAPER mouse trap BECAUSE it was CHEAPER.

THAT was better FOR YOU... cheaper.

OTOH I chose the better mouse trap BECAUSE it's better.

I just budgeted for it.

But if cheaper is your only criteria to define better then there's no room for reason.

Seriously?

You read way too much into things Beck. And seem to go looking for a Fight when there is No Fight there.

I'm Not Sure How Much Clearer I can make this. I Don't Care what type of Mod you or Anyone else Uses.
