I love Halo. I started with the G6 cigalike and even though I have ego's now, I still use the G6 as well as the triton. I like their tanks, their style, the quality. I actually don't care for their juices at all, but I love the hardware. Their products are great for people like me that have no interest in vv/vw, building coils, etc. I just want the simplest fastest way to vape.

I quit smoking with a Halo starter kit. Their equipment is very good for an eGo style set up. The tanks work well, batteries charge quickly and last. Their juice is also fantastic. When I was new to vaping, I wanted a 1-stop shop, where I could get a starter kit, not have to mix and match equipment and get great juice. I wanted something that worked, as I was tired of BLU and needed something more powerful than my VEAs. Halo was the only one I found which had great reviews- from Smoken Joey, especially. Their sample tins were ideal for a new vaper. I still use my Halo batteries and tanks, along with ProVape gear and IBTanks. Millions of Halons can't be wrong...

I hate Halo! Spent so much on their start up kit just to find out the batteries would only take ONE charge. I figured bad batch and they sent me 2 more, same thing. In the meantime I spent a bunch of $ stocking up on their cargos. Spent around $200 just to have them still sitting in a box. Anyone else had this problem? I finally got a way cheaper kit from Puff and love it. Costs have really come down in last 4 years!

I know a lot of people disagree with me, but I think Halo juice is TERRIBLE!!! It all seems to have an off-taste, very chemical. Even after a lot of steeping, it still tastes bad. Their gourmet flavors are bad, and their tobacco flavors are horrible. I don't like menthol, so I haven't tried them, although I hear a lot of people say they're good.

I quit smoking using the Halo Triton. I have friends and relatives who also quit using the Triton.

I've moved on: iTaste vv, Vamo, and Provari. ProTanks, AeroTanks, IBTanked, and Kayfun. DIY liquid.

My friends and relatives are still happy with their Tritons and use them exclusively. I've let them try my cotton-wicked micro-coiled cloud machines, but they have no interest in upgrading, even though they can afford it. I think there's some loyalty there, much like with cigarette brands.

And there's also: "Why fix it if it ain't broke?" I'm a naturally curious type, so I felt the pull to explore the range of vaping hardware. Can I rebuild coils? Can I get these devices to work better? Not everyone is like that. My Triton crew is just very happy to not be smoking, and they should be.

I recommend the Halo Triton to all smokers. You can get eGo kits cheaper, and you'll be able to try the dozens of lousy clearos available on the market. The Triton system is limited by design. It's high-quality and reliable. The last thing a new ex-smoker needs is a new source of frustration.

Couple of months ago, my wife and I took our daughter to Disney World. I left the Provari in the hotel room (too heavy), and carried my Triton around in the park. It was like bumping into an old friend. I'll never sell it or throw it away.

A Halo G6 was what I moved to after disposables (can't believe the money I wasted on disposables!), and between the small/easy form factor and the sample packs, it was a good introduction. Adding their clearomizers took me to the next level, and got me interested in moving away from cigarettes and to more advanced vaping.

Their gear is good quality, to be sure, but nothing to write home about. The "sweet spot" on the G6 shrank quite a bit over a couple months, but they still work (I mostly loan them out). Anyone could do a lot worse starting out, but the limiting factor of the 808 threads makes them a bit of a dead end.

I really do love their juice, however. They make some of my favorite tobacco flavors (Tribeca, Torque, and the-not-really-tobacco-flavor Voodoo). I don't get the perfume-y thing that others complain about at all. That's why I like them - I've tasted a lot of perfume-y tobacco flavors, but not from Halo.

Their prices seem fairly average for premium juice, and they have sales every few months. I just stocked up on my faves during their recent 20% off sale. :)
