I am in total shock. Just dropped my son off at school and did my little morning routine, sitting in my car in front of Starbucks. A huge guy came toward the car just as I got out to get my coffee saying "Be careful girl, you are to pretty for that". I said for what. He was talking aboutme vaping a Stealthwith a clearo on it. I told him it was an e cig and asked him what he think it was. He said nevermind obviously thinking it was a crack pipe. The staff at Starbucks toldme they get daily "complaints" thinking I do drugs in the car. I never saw it this way or encountered this kind of weirdness. Now I'm paranoid to drive just waiting to get pulled over while driving and vaping. I wonder how the Shockwave goes over. I never had a complain usinf the P 10. Maybe I need another and 20 batteries. This guy scared the crap out of me and he meant well. What could people possibly think I'm smoking?

:) You have never seen it this way? Wow, that thought crosses my mind all the time, though nobody has ever had the nerve to confront me. I always think that other people are under the impression that I'm doing drugs. I care what other people think in this instance because I think those drugs are stupid, so it bothers me. But I remember that what I'm actually doing is being very smart and only time and exposure will enlighten other people.

Ok, I have no clue what the EFC rules are and of we are allowed to "name"drugs but whatever; I thought crack pipes are little glass pipes (well, the clearomizer could resemble one). Pot is legal in WA. State but I don't think ppl think that's what it is.
I'm just a bit freaked out bc the guy was sincerely concerned (I'm almost done with my Human Servive/psychology degre) and he was ready to take me to a "meeting".
Man, yeah I got looks before but I even vape in the car with my son in it (window open) and was never fazed by"looks" of others but this morning was just weird. PS: My college wants a tabacco free campus banning e cigs and I am busy writing the dean trying to fight for my right to vape on campus. OK, sorry moving on.

I am what you would call unapproachable looking....:) Intimidating? Or so I'm told, as I don't smile enough...anyway, so I never get approached by strangers. I don't pay much attention, nobody pays me any when I'm vaping. I get asked at my nephew's soccer games by parents, (and even kids), but once I explain it they "understand" even if they don't really. Never been looked at strange by cops.

You can never account for what goes on in people's brains (although you're doing well trying Julia :) ), so they see something unusual, maybe they see a rocker and assume someone would just crack up in the parking lot? It is funny to me although if I found out people thought what you just found out today it would freak me TF out too. Maybe they do but don't wanna say. You just ran into a do-gooder today.

Yeah I got 4 E-Moli 26700 batteries from JR Custom Turning for my 26mm mods and they out perform my AW 26500 easily mind you the AWs are getting a little old. Hence the reason I stored 2 for the Shockwave. But you want a great performer without a kick they are the batts to buy! Plus they are made in Canada so maybe I'm tainted meat on this!! LOL


There is a 26700 IMR Molycell made right here in Canada. JR Custom Turning sells it as well. They have been tested and shown to outperform all others with a reported 40 amp limit. This is a link to the Data Sheet.

Vaped my SW all day today. Seems to be hitting the same as it was at 4:30 am. :)
Just switched to the 18650. Nice. Can't help but wonder what a P+ 26650 bottom button ShockWave would be like. ;)

I've wondered long enough...it would be completely unmanageable.

I picked up my 18350 earlier today and it seems so tiny and light. I had gotten used to it, but having used the shockwave exclusively for the past week or so, it really changed my frame of reference.

I keep thinking what it would be like to have an 18xxx shockwave, hehe.

You'll have to let us know how they compare to other 26650 batts, as I would assume they would outperform the AW's in 26500. Well not exactly assume, but expect? Cheers.
