Strange. I've ordered my Hangsen juices and various hardware for years from madvapes. I just placed an order Saturday and got a transaction notice quickly. I usually get a shipping notice within a couple of days, but Memorial Day apparently slowed things down. madvapes is a slow site that sometimes gives me script errors. Newegg is another.

You'd think that we could just stop by a bank branch and verify our age so that a code would be transmitted with the card verification. The card could reflect that with some kind of approval code. I've had the same checking account for over 40 years, but how do they know it's me that placed the order? How do they ever know that it's me? It gets shipped to my card address, but it could be another family member. Dang FDA meddlers.
From my interaction a week or so ago, I understand that for many who use credit card, the age verification is automatic through the CC. I use debit card, and had to jump through a number of hoops to get age verification. However, once it is done, it is done. madvapes may be getting primarily into their vapeshop franchises.

My three kicks for my stash arrived yesterday. They were individually boxed, in a large box. LOL.

I like Hangsen Tobacco and USA. MAdvapes only has a half dozen flavors in the Hangsen line.

If you like Dekang, then try E Liquid Market in Birmingham, AL. They ship quickly and the prices are in line with Madvapes for 50ml bottles. They have a sampler pack with 5 10ml bottles for about $13. It's a good way to try the flavors.
Iv been meaning to grab some Hangsen Reno from Caterpillar Vapes, Madvapes used to be the only people that carried it and then they changed the Flavoring or something.. They wouldn't tell me the secret lol

It all kind of makes you think that once the vapor controversy clears we will be left with nothing but products like Blu and Vuse. That's kind of like going back to the Joye 510, except you have to buy prefilled carts.

Yes, that IS what they want. No open systems, no refills. Easier to tax...

I'd used a regular credit card over the weekend when I was attempting my MadVapes order. I'd contacted their Help Desk/Tech Support the day I was having trouble (Sunday, I think). Haven't heard anything from them. Emptied my shopping cart.

I didn't want to pass up that deal for $2. But Memorial day, the three would have cost 1.50 less, even, but kicks seem to last quite a while, and I didn't want to buy too many. Ah, well.

Maybe a good idea to jump through the hoops and make a small order now, so that you will be ready to go for sales on the 4th.

Ultimately, the message was positive, but she left a impression that vapers are all wannabe biker types...


Hey! I resemble that remark...

KZ's are sweet. I'm done with air cooled in Texas, though.

Almost burned up a mint '81 CB650 Custom getting stuck in rush hour hell on a 110 degree day.

For you non-riders, when you see those Harley guys cutting across the grass to get out of standstill traffic, it's usually because their air cooled motors are about to melt down.

It's worth the risk of a ticket to protect the $7000 motor from thermal damage. Air cooling only works when moving.

Clouds, Bro. But not the good kind....

I almost bought a Voyager back in the day. I believe its motor is basically a smoothed out KZ13, isn't it?


Jay :headbang:
The voyager has fuel injection and a slightly different top end. A little more grunt for the added weight. The rest of the motor is the same.

So, was looking at the thread, but... TLDR.

My better half has recently decided that she'd like to try vaping. I've been at it for a few years, and haven't done any tootle puffing in a long time.

However, she'll probably be more comfortable with tootle puffing to start, doesn't want any of the direct lung (clouds, bro, clouds) stuff that I use.

So, looking for an RTA for her. No worries with building, I can take care of that, but looking for a good flavor RTA that works well for MTLers. Recommendations? I've been eyeballing the Serpent Mini and Goblin Mini V2 - probably not great for MTL, but a restrictive lung hit might work. It's gotta be rebuildable and handle high VG. She'll be using my IPV D3, so no worries on a mod.

I could dig out an old Lemo, but looking for something discreet, preferably with top fill. With the amount of stuff that's hit the market in the last two years, there's gotta be something new and improved since big airflow cloud checkers started coming out. Personally, I'm happy with my Billow V3's and Griffins, but some vape otherwise.

BOOM!

Can't go wrong with Kayfun's or Russian 91%'s. Best Tootle Puff devices in MHO.
