  1. Wait, VT has a $99.00 510 kit? I have looked all over the store and not seen it, or are we talking about a mod with 510 adapter?
  2. Yes, I can say "bogus". It is made easy by sites like that one. I can claim all day that something is registered for a patent, doesn't mean there is one for it lol. But good catch for us to reply to and warn others about , ty
  3. Sorry, maybee i mispoke myself, the fitting I am refering to will need to be custom machined to adapt from my "yet to be announced size and diameter/thread coarseness etc",... down to the common 510/801 fittings of which the threads/coarseness/diameter have already been well defined.
  4. You will never hear from them, they have a strict "never reply to anyone with a brain" policy.
  5. you know the phrase " if it weren't for bad luck,.....) Yeah , that is me. Someone else may have coined the phrase, but I am the living proof. $20 says I do not win,..... (wait) um,... quick calculation here,......... never mind,... that would be a lose either way bet lol. no deal.
  6. What about Li-Po (lithium polymer) batteries? they are the new rage in model aircraft.
  7. My second ever review, with an actual webcam this time
  8. I have had exactly 3 bumper stickers on my vehicles in the past (1 current) my favorite one was " Don't steal! The government hates competition" next favorite,.. " Sure you can trust the government,... Just ask an Indian" and last but not least " Therapy is expensive,.. poppin bubble wrap is cheap,.. You choose" and yes I want a sticker please pm'd addy.
  9. Ok, WOW, I understand stage fright, but seriously? With that kind of response to a simple question I think she will probably be the next president
  10. Well, I checked out your site and I gotta say I love "Danny's skinning axe" so is it really mine? joke. But seriously, really nice work
  11. Ok, I guess I was refering to the part where he said "Pasturized tobacco, processed in sweden to food standards". Still not sure what processing tobacco to "food standards" is.
  12. Will get back to you about that once I am anywhere near finnished lol, did I mention I am making this myself on a shoestring budget? and I will see once I have settled on the final dimensions/thread coarsness etc,.. about getting some adapters machined down to 510 and 801 sizes since these are the most common sizes from what I can tell.
  13. Hmmm,.. Well I guess he is not actualy burning the tobacco and I do not know much about snus, but he says it has been pasturized to food grade(not real positive how that affects all the other ingredients in tobacco) but it would seem that he is just vaporizing the vg that has soaked the nic and flavor of the snus pouch into it. Hmmm,.. this may be a viable last ditch effort to get around a e-juice ban, but I do not see it being a very efficient alternative to e-juice unless e-juice does get banned (which I do not see happening since vapers are becoming a force to be reconed with). All in all, I think it is kinda silly, but in a worst case scenario it might work.
  14. TY for the support, like I said it will be a significant ammount of time before I have what I will call a satisfactory prototype. That said,.. I will try to keep updates in this thread as I hit new milestones in my effort. I will not release any prototype for production until I have personaly done testing to make sure it exceeds all my requirements, so testing will take a long time in itself since I will be making sure that I can consistently make them last more than 6 months since I do not want to have to replace a bunch for free, which will be my personal guarantee if one fails in less than 6 months. Also, once I DO have it ready to my satisfaction, I will not be bothering with patenting it since my primary interest is not the money. Instead I will just keep the intelectual copyrights and then offer a prototype and a complete engineering breakdown to any person or group (IN THIS FORUM ONLY) who is interested in producing them. P.S. If the person who makes the juicebox atty starts selling just the attys in a form adaptable to other mods, and with a 6 month guarantee, then this may all become a moot point. Power to the vapers.
  15. Welcome to the VT forums Operator Just a thought on having a 12v power supply for recharging/passthrough or whatever,.. would one of the rechargable jumper pack for starting dead car batts fit in the cab of the dozer somewhere with you? Most of them have the utility of a 12v cigarette lighter plug or 2 as well as the jumper cable utility and would last for TONS of recharges for an e-cig, and very long usage for a passthrough (like 36hours or more). just a thought.
  16. I feel exactly the same way, I don't see ANYTHING else out there with the potential to save over 400,000 lives a year. Seatbelts?(nowhere near) Lifevests?(can't come close) Surgery?(doesn't even save that many) Diabetic medications ?(still not as many, but closer) With over $8,000,000,000 a YEAR spent on cancer research nothing they have come up with is saving over 400,000 lives a year. So it begs the question,... If they took 1/2 of that 8billion and spent it on promoting and producing better e-cigs do you think they would have a whole lot less cases of cancer? And if you never get cancer in the first place isn't that alot better than getting it and then them having some half a$$ed cure? just my $0.02
  17. Since they are so close, have you tried their juice? Is it good?
  18. Yeah that would be fine Chris I kinda thought about posting it in that area but wasn't sure.
  19. You know, I haven't even thought about that poor guy I think I am now trying to put him outa business unless he changes his business to e-cigs from reputable suppliers.
  20. @dave Heyas, can ya post the link to your knife site? I am a knife aficionado myself and would love to see what you have. I believe that if 2 people are within 15' of each other and one has a gun(that is not already aimed) and the other has a knife, then the person who has the knife and knows how to use it will most likely come out on top. link the site please
  21. Well I got my order from them today and they are not bad. I boiled the attys right away to get rid of the packing grease or whatever it is that always comes on the attys. After drying I used the atty with my previous 520 batts and they produce great vapor from the start, time will tell if they hold up well. So for pros and cons,... first the pros,.. They arrived prety fast (ordered 2 days before christmas and they arrived the day after, next, nothing was DOA, also they look great and the paint used is very tough and with the great price and free shiping over $20 for now they are seeming like a prety great deal. Also the single e-cig cases I got from them look great and work well, you can fit 1 full (normal size) 510 in them with the atty and mouthpiece assembled with a cap over the batt side of the atty and the normal 510 battery (gotta make sure when you close it the button is sideways) and they clip in shirt pocket. So on to the cons,... Well,.. you do have to be carefull with the cases since if you put the manual batt in wrong the button will be pressed, other than that they are great on first impressions. Time will tell if I am completely satisfied but so far so good
  22. Instead of just calling it a pv or personal vaporizer, I add the word nicotine therefore "personal nicotine vaporizer", it says all I need it to I think.
  23. Thank you! There is alot more to the story but it got long as it is lol
  24. Ok, I guess I will start at the begining ( this may get long) It started out with me and my wife going to a local smokeshop in richland washington to get me stocked back up on my tobacco supplies. I was a roll your own smoker for many years because of the cost savings and we went there to get another 6 oz bag of tobacco and 400 papers that usualy lasted me 2 weeks and cost around $40.00 for the cheapest I could get. I had picked out my usual stuff when I noticed a sign for the "envy bliss" electronic cigarette. Well I got very interested because I have been feeling what tobacco has been doing to my health. It was in a green and black cigarette pack like box and was selling for $36.00 +tax and claimed that each of the 5 carts included lasted as long as a pack of ciggs ( I am sure we are all now familiar with this lie). and they had 5 packs of carts for $12.95 or something so it seemed like it would be alot cheaper in the long run so I decided to give it a shot. Well at first after charging for the appointed time I took my first drag and thought ,. Huh, but continued to fiddle with taking longer drags etc,.. untill I actualy got a decent lung full of vapor and started thinking " hey this could be alright". After about 10 - 15 drags (what I figgured was a cigarette worth) I set it down and thought that it was prety much curing my nic fit. Well I started using it when I normaly wanted a cig and it was working fairly well but Before I had vaped what I considered equal to about 5 cigs the taste started changing and getting wispy. I pulled off the cart to investigate and the thing was dry. Started to do some calculations and got bummed since it was going to be almost twice as expensive at that rate as what I was spending on rollies. Then I decided to look online to see if I could get carts cheaper or something and discovered some reviews talking about refilling with juice and even though the envy bliss said using anything other than their carts would void the 30 day warranty I decided to try this route since it seemed it would be less expensive and ordered some grape and capuccino as well as a couple tobacco flavors from freedom2vape, and started anticipating the day it would arive. Well I decided to sit back and relax with a vape and since the first cart had dried up I put on another and started to vape for about 5 drags before the battery led started blinking longer than when the cut off had been reached and with some testing discovered the battery was already dead. I was upset, ( not even 6 ciggs worth and the single battery in the kit was dead) back to analogs while I waited for it to charge To shorten this up , after a couple days of fiddling with this thing I was looking on the net again to see what I was doing wrong or if there was better versions out there or at least more batteries for this one. Well there were no extra batteries available, I would have to order a whole nother kit. While looking around I came across wordupecig.com and saw they had kits that seemed like larger better made versions with 2 or more batteries in the kit for not much more than I had paid for this kit. I wanted to be sure of my choice this time so I called the phone # on the site expecting to get the usual 15 minutes with a machine before even hoping to talk to a real person or possibly just get a message machine, but wait! Some actual human was answering the phone, I thought "this is strange" but proceeded to talk with the person who introduced himself as Jeffrey. after a lengthy conversation he had convinced me that a 520 kit(510 with megga battery) would be right for me. So I hung up and thought about it a little more and did some more research and decided to do it, got the kit with 2 big batts and 2 attys and a case and some e-juice from him too ( 10ml was included in the kit). Then back to waiting for stuff to arive and smoking analogs whenever the batt on the envy ran out. well by now 4 days had passed since I got the first kit and ordered the other juice from freedom2vape, and 1 day since I ordered from wordup, checked the mail and the package from freedom had showed up and I tried refilling the dinky stupidly designed cart ( made alot of mess at first) and discovered I like using other flavors besides tobacco and every time I had to resort to analogs they tasted horrible now. (ok this is getting way too long now so I am gonna chop it prety drasticaly from here out) got my package from wordup 2 days after order and was amazed at the customer service and delivery. Well this (after charging etc,..) turned out way better than the envy and I was a happy vaper now and never touched a cigg again. Thought to myself, hey my sis 70 miles away smokes as well as her husband and my nephew. Drove out ther and insisted they try the envy and my 510, They liked it and I let them keep the envy since my 510 was doing well for me with 2 batts. Gave em some advice since by this time I had gone through some trial and error I could help them avoid and had become a VT noobie, I suggested they talk to Jeffrey at wordup and get "real" kits since I knew the envy would not cut it for them either. they now both have 901 kits and have not had a cigg since they got them, and my nephew now has the envy and is looking into a better kit for himself. I also thought my brother in the mental hospital smoked, I wonder if he can get approval to try one there, I talked to him and he talked to his doctor and got the goahead. So now I am sending a kit to him and hoping for the best. Well at this point If it continues to work for all mentioned then my entire immediate family will be off cigs for christmas praise GOD and joy to the world and may everyone opposed to e-cigs recieve a labotomy for christmas and may every smoker recieve an e-cig kit for christmas. My family is all on their way to being healthier and they are all telling me that introducing them to the e-cig was the best christmas present they have ever gotten from anyone. And I am thanking the e-cig for my family and myself having a new lease on life and for bringing my immediate family and myself closer together. I am also thanking everyone in the VT forum for contributing in some way to all of this. Thank you all and merry christmas, I love you all!
