congrats on the 31 days, I have a lava tube I've had it for about 3 months I use it every day along side my provari's it has a few issues but I think it's a good way to try VV without dropping a lot of cash this site has a good price and a 1 year warranty VTube Kit and I have a j-tank it works really good too

LavaTube is a good starter VV, especially considering the price. (not good with 1.5ohm cartos though. Use 2.5-3ohms)
I have one and I'm very satisfied with it. You just need to have realistic expectations.
I was not impressed so much with Smoketech DCT, so will be getting a J-tank for my V-Tube (Lavatube).

I suggest looking at Pbusardo review on both the Lavatube (the model he reviews is called something else, like VVM(?)) and the J-Tank. Pbusardo has some of the best reviews on YT and is very thorough.

Of course, if money is no object, you could jump in with both feet and get a Provari or Darwin. They're way better than the LavaTube, but costs 4-5X as much. Someone will recommend them soon, so I figured I'd mention it.

For a little more than a LavaTube, you can go with the Tox Cannon. It's like a Lavatube with few more bells & whistles, but it's a new product, so relatively untested in the field.

I also bought the VTube from this site and absolutely LOVE it. I use it constantly. I use a DCT with triple-punched carto on it, and have yet to be disappointed by it. I did a bit of research on VV mods before buying it, and suggest you do the same. It may not have features you're looking for, or it may be your dream come true.

congrats on the 31 days, I can't help ya with the lava tube, as I am on my 34 day mark, and don't know much myself yet. Blu was my first ecig ever, and currently still using it, but am waiting for the e-power to come in the mail, going to use that until I can save up the $ for an ego. Just now venturing out into the bigger models...good luck with the lava tube, and happy vaping!

I use the Lavatube daily it had some issues early on like one battery failed after 2 days though I heard that issue is resolved. I also had the plastic cap on the bottom battery cover fall off early on. I used some rubber cement careful not to plug up the hole and all has been fine. The only issue I have really been annoyed by is the occasional need to pull out the battery and put it back in for some reason it needs to reboot now and then.

all in all I am happy with the choice to get one of these and by making my own juice and cleaning my cartomizers I think I spend pennies a day now instead of what I used to spend on analogs or even njoys.
