Not counting a few people puffing unhappily on gas station e-cigs and a friend of mine who uses a Greensmoke, I've encountered exactly one other vaper besides myself. I was at a beer garden a couple of weeks ago and a guy at the next table was using a nice looking "box" style mod. I didn't go over and talk to him because he was chatting with his companions and I didn't want to impose.

So how's the scene by you?

I live in NY and only see people walking around with the gas station cigs...more within the past few months than I've ever seen. Saw one guy walking around vaping on a box mod. Went to Vegas last month for a bachelor party...saw mods galore lol. Was really surprised. People walking around the Casino and clubs vaping like it was the norm...got me a lil excited to see

I'm the only one I know of in my little Indiana town of 40,000 besides one friend of my wife whom I haven't met. The attendant at the gas station in my neighborhood said blus are selling well, but I've never seen anyone with an ecig. Frankly, I don't know many smokers anymore since graduating college. There's only one or two left in my social circle who smokes. I teach at a college and there are students and faculty who smoke but none I know of who vape.

Other than a friend that works at a vape shop, I haven't seen but a couple and neither one of them was friendly! Kind of mean actually. Maybe they need to re-evaluate their mods/tanks. I could tell one was unhappy with her burny vivi nova knockoff. Since they were mean, I offered exactly "0" pearls of wisdom. :p

Neighbor across the street vapes - he got me started with an old ego battery. One co-worker has an ego style setup, and a couple more are not doing so well with GreenSmoke setups.

Did see a group of guys in a parking lot vaping as they walked to their car. Only true in the wild sighting for me outside of a couple of vape shops I've been to in town. I've only been vaping for a few weeks, so I'm sure I have missed folks vaping before I was really looking for it.

I've seen a scattering of them, unfortunately most I've seen had The over priced kr808 from the mall, maybe they'll figure it out ($80 for a kit I can make without even trying for $25...) I am gonna go see what the attendant at the gas station had when I get a chance. Looked like some kinda rocketship :)

Funny, I live in a small town of just 1300 full time residents and know at least 10 people who vaped, my boss in fact got me to make the switch, and I have in return helped several others switch (most of them officers or detectives that work with my wife).

I've only seen one mod user, at a gas station, agitated on his cell phone, so I didn't approach. I think it was an SB with carto tank.
My family sees someone whenever they travel and enjoy sharing with me the type of mod used.
If I ever get to play Bingo again in this century, I hope to spot many.

Too much stalking up to do first though
