Just think...how many years of life your advice have given all the people in this thread by helping them to stay off the stinkies??

I am sorry to hear about your work troubles. I have been there myself. Good luck and I hope things get better on that front. But you are making quite a difference on the world by touching all these peoples lives. Mine included. :)

I have actually applied to two of my local vape shops. One is a well-known, well-established shop which I assume has a full sales staff. The other one is just starting up and needs to begin to have more business before they can afford to pay me a salary.

It's ironic, but the people who run and work in these shops do not seem to have a high opinion of internet e-cig forums, so having a great reputation on one means very little to them.

that is interesting...I don't see why that would be so? if I was running a B&M, I'd be here all day to see what people have to say about my store. Did businesses forget that the best advertisement is still the 'word of mouth' ? The people here would be my customers, why would I not want to know what's being said here? IMHO that is not a good move.

I've noticed this, and I can't understand why this is. You would be a stellar employee at any vape shop.

In my short time as a forum member I also have found baditudes knowledge without compare. Precise and easy to understand, which is good for old farts (well steeped?) like me.

Thanks, you get my recommendation for any job related to vaping! Good luck and as some famous actress once said "don't let the baxxxzzs get you down."

I have read this whole thread and can say for once, I agree with every word!
Sorry to learn you lost your job, I think many of us worry about this every day. I do know how difficult it is and I am sending up extra prayers for you. I also think we need to educate vape shops! How dumb can they be not to be interested in ECF? They could learn much themselves and increase sales by staying up to date with what is happening here.

Common theme here is"he has been here since day one". You sir have steered many from day one including myself. I would hate to think of where I would be without your well thought out advice and for that I will be forever grateful! I know any advice coming from you is worth taking. You haven't steered me wrong yet. I don't consider you pushing brands at all but simply stating what has worked well for you. That is what makes a difference. I have no doubt you have saved me a small fortune not buying things I wouldn't be happy with. I hope this forum doesn't lose you when some smart company hires you!

Let me also add some appreciation from Belgium to Baditude.
I have to "tank" him.

His blogs are great, his advice is great, without pushing his opinion up to people.

He "learned" me all about cartomisertanks ( tankomiser sounds better), I still use my iClear30, but I started to use cartotanks, "tanks" to him.
And I love them all. I started with some cheap tanks, and yes, the flavour of the cartomisers combined with the capacity of a tank, this is really my thing.

I did not yet ordered an IBTanked or a Bella, but I gonna give myself a nice X-MAS surprise and order some of them, and for my daughter surely a Bella tank (they are so girlie-sweet)

What I like the most about Baditude is that he learns the people appreciate carto's in a tank, for me the best way to vape.

I do not say that RBA's are not good, not at all, but I love the simplicity of cartotanks versus RBA's, just put a new carto and vape again, and like I told before, those cartotanks looks nice, and the flavour is great (once again for me, everyone has his own opinion of course)

This forum is addictive, and a few days after I bought my svd, I had the "luck" to find a topic "pictures of your setup". A new world opened for me, and before I knew I was in love with some mechanical mods.
And in one month I bought myself a caravela 'replica' (sounds better like a clone), a nemesis 'replica', and I really feel the need of putting an IBtanked/Bella on it....

Second "tank" to Baditude is his Batt advice.
It cannot be told enough, we are working with batteries at a few inches from our face. I really appreciate the advice I was reading from him. It cannot be said enough, over and over again.... And I even think there has to be a regulation on batteries, and on chargers. If you see some of the batteries/chargers that some companies sell, well, I can tell I do not want to burn down my house or blow up my face....
... better be carefull then have accidents with bad or cheap batteries. For me a battery is THE MOST important part of the whole vaping thing, and only the best is good enough.
For me personal, I also will always use a kick on mech mods, just to be sure (I am not searching for clouds of vapor, I want a hassle-free good looking good functionating "vape-machine".
Using cheap batteries sounds to me like racing with a Ferrari after you let the oil flew out the brakes, not done. Another reason for me to use always a kick in a mechanical. The amount of vape does not matter anymore if you ruine your face because of the use of cheap batteries.

So, I consider Baditude as the most value member for me, he is the godfather of tankomisers, and the battery-angel.



"Tank" you for all your advice, Baditude. "Tank" you very much

I just had to add my voice to the rest in this thread because you are one in a million Bad! :toast:

Because of you, I am no longer intimidated by cartotanks... the best to buy as well as priming the cartomizers.

Also the best batteries and chargers to buy as well as those to avoid.

Following your blogs have been a blessing. Keep up the good work and don't ever stop! Please!! :)

Well, I am not so sure I can follow suit to what many have posted here.

I have issues with you....I will even take the time to elaborate.

Your blog, yes, its written like you have done lots of research and have experience under your belt. I get that.
But it does bad things for me, it makes me think about the subject at hand, then it makes me want to buy more things and spend more money. For this, I am not happy.

Your post, yes, they make sense, yes, they explain everything, yes, helps others including myself. But...it does bad things for me, it makes me think about the subject at hand, then it makes me want to buy more things and spend more money. For this, I am not happy.

ok, well, thats all I got. and who am I kidding.. I am just a smarta$$.

Like the masses, I do enjoy reading your knowledge and experiences and IF I make the jump to cartos, I know I can depend on some good advice from you when I screw things up and run into a jam. For all of this, I thank you sir!

:vapor:
