Hey,
I'm still vaping my 808 and I must say it still does its job
However, I would like to know whats your favorite model? With which did you get started?
I'm still vaping my 808 and I must say it still does its job
I vaped almost a year on 808 models, starting out with a V2 starter kit. Not a bad kit, as far as "cig-a-likes" go, but I found the Halo cartomizers were absolutely excellent. Easy to fill, and really consistent, they perform rather well. I fell off the wagon for a while, and just picked up vaping again recently.
I stopped at a local e-cig shop, since they opened recently and I was curious. Tried some of their flavors on an Ego setup, and was impressed. Eagerly awaiting my Halo Triton tank system, which should be here tomorrow. As I said before, I was very pleased with their cartos, and the Triton seems to be a good product; read a lot of good things about it. As a Ego-style setup with 808 threading, it'll limit my choices, but I think given Halo's reliability and consistency, it won't be a problem.
Sadly the most popular are Njoy or Nano.
The reason is more often than not an e cig is an impulse buy. You are at your local slurpie mart buying a pack of smokes and look up to see and ad for e cigs on sale and how the high price is equal to two of your packs. You buy it and end up with a meh experience. At that point you can either try to see if there is something better than meh or light up. I did the former, but only after smoking for another week.
Brick and mortar shops scare new people away often. When I walked into one and saw $75 for a starter kit I walked back out. I hit youtube and made some better choices. I also found a Fin starter kit at Sam's Club for $10. The Fin gave me a better idea of what vaping was about at a price that was $2 more expensive than slurpie mart's disposable.
This is what vaping needs! There are not enough of us to tell all of our friends and family. That impulse buy is where things have the biggest impact. I encourage vape shops to sell a few decent cheap kits and take a lead loss if needed....hell, or just break even. I sell that $10 kit to anyone who wants me to pick on up. I lose $.21 along with my time and gas. Even if 1 in 4 thinks to go to the next level that is better than no one.
I have moved on from the fins, but still buy kits. I have parts on the way to sell to those who want to move up. Those I do profit on some, because I am not crazy, but the price is always reasonable. My hope, in time, is that one day we will see posts here from them.
