Yes, I was watching the live feed. BTW... most of the mod hype was on the Eclipse, the Empire, and the Helix. Very little Darwin talk at the Vapefest. Must not be many of them out there yet? The Eclipse looks like the biggest innovation. But I can't get myself to part with that kind of cash until I see how the QC translates into a quality product. There is simply too much that can go wrong with a pv that is completely at the mercy of a computer chip and programming. Add to that potential issues with the autofeeder and I'm going to sit on the sidelines until I hear the "gotta have one of those" crowd chime in on ease of use and reliability. The Empire and the Helix are just big battery mods with the "shiny, shiny, pretty, pretty" thing going on. I must say though, that the Empire is one of the best looking mods I've seen and looks very well built. Additionally, just knowing Cisco's way, the Helix is surely a tank that will serve reliably. Be aware that the empire is a 901 native connection and get a 901-510 bridge and one of their super snazzy drip shields if you go with one.
There are also an insane number of new juices and juice vendors out there. I'm sort of getting to my "short list" of trusted vendors and favorite juices now, so I doubt I'll try all that many new vendors. My biggest worry with vaping, all along, has been being able to trust the people making the juices not to poison us, due to bad QC or cost cutting attempts that result in less than pure nic bases.
