PapawB, so you simply want faves, eh? The year of manufacture does not matter, nor whether the company still produces the device/tank?

If so, I may have to add to my little votey poll.

Yep, your favorite Power Source and favorite Juice Burner.
If you list one or two, I count that. If you list twelve of each, I count the first two (as they came to mind first).
When it comes time to do the Weekly Tally, I don't just list the most favorite - I post them as 'Links' so the reader can go to that site with a simple 'click'. If ProVape happens to make the list, instead of providing a Link I will simply list them as "ProVape (RIP)". Sorry, Provarinati, but it is just a reality.

I just noticed we have nearly 1000 views but less than 70 posts....
This is NOT a "Mine is bigger than yours" thread. If your are still using an eGo and a dripping atomizer, that's cool. There are plenty of quality starter devices that start at well under $100. The idea here is to get a broad view of vaping gear so that someone looking to start/ upgrade will get an idea of what all is out there. Last Year's most popular devices came from eLeaf, who makes multiple mods for under $50. So if you are 'lurking', feel free to join the party ! We do not judge here !

Now, where's my morning coffee....

Favorite that was released or continued to be manufactured this year or of all time? I'm seeing a lot of older stuff in here.

The setups that I used the most this year... Dun da dun dun..

Smoant Charon Adjustable and the Bellus V2 (keep in mind I had the Bellus V2 for 5 months before it hit the market) This setup definitely got the most use, I really love it but I want to keep them in mint condition because in my eyes it seems a bit more classy than my other vapes so I use it on special occasions.

And my second setup.

Noisy Cricket II-25 with just about any RDA, I have piles of them but this one matches so I put in on for the pic It's the Youde Skywalker. I picked up two of these mods this year and they are my at home/going to the vape shop setups.

Any finally my third place beater..

Vaporesso Revenger and I'm using the Eleaf Ello tank on it with Baby Beast Q2 coils, I only use this when I'm going out in public just because the simplicity of it and the fact that the revenger is so freaking comfortable in the pocket..

I'm another member of the Jac pack: the Jac Series B 75W is my fave mod by far. For a topper, I still love the Kayfun Mini v3 best, though I don't really like it with the Jac because it's sort of an awkward height. I think the Kayfun Prime will be the answer to this, but I don't have one yet.

I also use the iStick Pico 75W every day, and I like the Ego One tanks a lot for drop-in (yet rebuildable!!!) coils.

The Kayfun Prime is perfect for the JAC. I also love the KM3 but your assessment is spot on. Too tall for the JAC. The JAC/Prime combo is a very nice compact setup.

This is why the word "Unofficial" appears in the title ;).

Honestly, when I started this idea in the Autumn of '12, everyone was talking about their e-liquid. There was even an official poll for e-liquid of the year.
But very few people talked about their vaping gear. Well, except maybe the Provarinati :D.
Now this is more of an opportunity to review what is out there, and what options are available to the Vaping community.

Just an observation. There are surely many wonderful and deserving nominations in this thread. I commend them all, and they are all worthy of recognition.
Obviously Provari is not going to win. But I think the fact that a device that was introduced in 2010 and ceased business operations in Feb of this year is still receiving a fair amount of votes is a testament to what that company did for the vaping community. And the quality and durability of the units.
Some of the voters here, myself included, have recently switched to this device and are using it successfully. This is in addition to the “old guard” that never abandoned the Provari.
Congrats to whatever devices win, but kudos to Provari for making a hell of a product. Just my .02.

Provape's positive impact on the vaping community cannot be overstated. I own four of them and they remain at the top of the list in terms of quality and performance.
