I understand your point but I enjoy tasting the many flavors available. I don't understand why so many people dislike me doing it for fun. I enjoy just as much as anyone else, why should I be looked down upon because I don't need the nicotine ?

Nothing wrong with being a weekend vaper if you enjoy it. It's much better than being a weekend smoker.

I think vaping is cool too, and I also think it's awesome that you only vape for the pleasure of vaping, rather than just to get free of cigarettes. I wish there were a lot more like you. I smoked for 30 years and discovered vaping only when I was at the blood clotting, teeth falling out, hospitalized in the ICU, time to stop smoking or die stage. Vaping saved my life, and I think for many of us that's what vaping is for, which is why some might give you a hard time about it. But it's a pleasure just like smoking was, and I don't see any reason why it can't be enjoyed by the people who need it and the people who don't, equally. If anyone gives you a hard time about it, remind them that more vapers means fewer people fighting against vaping.

Very well said and thank you. I felt like I was getting ganged upon, in this thread, because I was vaping for fun.

To tell you the truth, I am 27 years old and I smoked for 6 years between the ages of 17-23, about a pack a day. I actually stopped from a electronic cig back when they were fairly new. I guess that was around 2009-2010, well at least new to me. I haven't had a cigarette since.

I recently got into vaping because I wanted to blow huge clouds for fun, with no nicotine. Since then I have calmed down a little, and just enjoy the flavors, but I do have a tobh atty and a kayfun lite on the way if I ever want to "show off", which I rarely do.

Well, I feel this thread is very long for a simple question, but since no one else has said it I will add my opinion ;)

I have a few different devices, but I Vape only, no regular cigarettes- but I keep different mods/tanks for a few reasons.

1. I keep my nice pricey stuff at home and take my lower quality items for taking with me when I hang out with friends. That way if it drops or gets scratched. I don't have to have a panic attack in front of my bros :)

2. I use box mods with built in lipos so no replaceable battery. I always leave one charged so I can grab one and go. Same with tanks, always keep one full just on case I have to leave quickly.

3. Sometimes I do t feel like lugging around my bigger box mod, so ill take my smaller OpusDNA which is very pocketable- or my 14500 Bagua mech and Kayfun mini, which will both fit in a change/lighter pocket of a pair of jeans.

Now, on all fairness one device is plenty for alot of people. But, in my opinion there are different situations for different mods. If I was out drinking and accidentally dropped a $250+ device I would feel pretty bad. Now a $20 clone? No biggie. Just my opinion though.

I don't know about your purchase, but my IPV2 came with a full year warranty. As long as it breaks during normal operation (I don't drop it in a toilet or something), I will send it back for shipping costs to be replaced.

Exactly, and that's one of the attractive buying considerations I likes about the purchase. In my experience, things that break usually happen around the 1-3 month mark.... At least from personal experience. Usually right after the 1-3 month warranty expires. Usually things that last over a year tend to hold up for a lot longer, if taken well cAre of. So a $100 device that has a year warranty was a big advantage to me. Maybe not to some others but it was to me. Not to mention that pioneer4you has a good brand behind their name, or so I have read.

I just don't see the point, in my certain situation, to have a second device when my new device can do it all, why use the VTR when I have the ipv2 now?

My $0.02

Better to have $500 in extra vape gear than risk spending $5 on a pack of cigarettes.
That's my motto.

Then again there's that second law of Thermodynamics thing......

I need a backup for my rider mower, but there's no more room in the little utility house out back! I'm itching for a Zero Turn mower, though. Gotta wear out the 18.5hp Craftsman lawn tractor first. It's been 12 years and it won't die!

I have a Sigelei Zmax V3 and a Provari V2. There are also a couple of slim 510 ecigs and 4 or 5 old 3.4v eGo batteries in my storage box. They'll work if they have to. I hope I don't have to resort to them. If I did it would mean that pandemonium has struck the country and people are scrounging for whatever.

There's also a plastic box mod that uses two 14500 batts with a thumbwheel to adjust the voltage. To tell the truth, I'm not at all tempted to vape that anymore. I've seen the picture of the buy who lost part of his cheek and jaw with a dual battery blowup.

To the OP, most of us have a junk box full of things we've bought and tried in the search for the ultimate vape. Read the reviews and make your decisions wisely and you'll save money in the long run and have a better collection than me of things you don't use anymore!
