  1. At least in 1st world countries there is no signs of e cigarettes slowing down. It's a new product not only sought after but demanded by the consumer. That's enough to raise eye brows. Big Tobacco has been in the back watching for quite some time. Here's a little fact most of you probably don't know, Altria (Parent company to Phillip Morris) owns 49% of Ruyans shares. Ruyan is lead by none other than Hon Lik....the inventor of the modern electronic cigarette. He holds the international patent to the electronic cigarette....
  2. 135 million is quite a large number, I have to admit if I was offered a 135 million all cash payout, I'd sell out. I'd' throw a massive BQQ and of course, beer is on the house. Hell I'll do it for 10! Pro Vari's for all (*Cough* your move Phillip Morris) Not but really, in all honesty the next few years are no doubt going to prove interesting.
  3. Now that's interesting. Anyone tried these?
  4. They are. They had two associates at Vegas Vape fest late last year. "researching what to research" They are definitely close behind.
  5. Just posted up and article on our front page: http://www.vaportalk...or-135-million/ This will no doubt help the industry in the fact that we've got big money now willing to protect the industry. However I see this pushing out the little guys no doubt. I suspect RJ Reynolds and Phillip Morris (Altria) aren't far behind. Most of us, especially suppliers knew this was going to happen at some point. The indsutry will no doubt start taking a more formal shape over the next couple of years vs the wild west that it is today. I assume patent battles are sure to follow..
  6. I always knew Africa was a large continent...but damn
  7. I skipped through the video only to see the mod, but it does appear to be quite nice looking and well put togeather.
  8. I'm locking this thread as you appear to be a supplier. Please PM if otherwise.
  9. I still get the relaxed feeling from vaping. Especially if I've had a long day and haven't vaped in a little while. But the light headed feeling I've never tried to obtain. Not when I smoked nor as a vaper.
  10. Though I think Pure Smoker had the necessary information in the manual to ensure safe operation, someone on ECF made a good suggestion. The suggestion was for suppliers to place a small piece of paper rolled into the tube of the mod. On the paper would be a warning "Use only Pure Smoker batteries" or something similar to that nature. That way the user must read the paper before placing batteries into the unit. Personally I think certain mods should only be purchased by advanced users. Back when we sold the Joker in our store there was an agreement and a check box that was required to be selected before checking out. (You could not add the item to your card with reading the information first) It ensured the user knew what type of batteries to use and what type of batteries NOT to use. It wouldn't be a bad idea for Pure Smoker (and other mod creators) to do the same thing.
  11. I think Vapers should do the same thing. Anyone for a naked Vapor Talk protest?
  12. Can you attached the photo here. It doesn't show up when I click your FB link
  13. (excuse the language folks, I forgot I created an exception to bypass the VT swear filter )
  14. This kind of **** is going to kill the industry. It really urks me when I see articles like this because I know it's a matter of time before mass media picks it up and spins it faster than a dancer on a stripper pole. It's why I recommend units like the Pro Vari or Lava Tube to new users. They're idiot proof. Now, my heart goes out to the vaper that was injured, but here's what I think... The Prodigy unit is a 3.7 volt unit. It states that the user purchased "batteries" I'm willing to bet he stacked non OEM batteries in order to obtain a higher voltage. (In a device not meant to be used over 3.7v) He wouldn't be the first to try this and it's scary how often this happens. I also wonder if the the vaper was using protected batteries. If this was indeed the case, well what did you expect. If he was using correct batteries (which somehow I doubt) then the fault lies in the hands of Puresmoker. But I have a sneaking suspicion some battery "stacking" was going on here. If you purchase an $80 mod use fork out the money for the correct $11 batteries. And you do NOT try to stack batteries. Especially if safety measures are not in place. If you buy a Mercedes requiring premium fuel and pour in some regular to saves a few pennies well... By the way I wrote up a quick article on the front page here: http://www.vaportalk...are-not-a-joke/ Comments on this would be appreciated. I have a feeling if this story goes mainstream potential new users are going to be reading. It's important people know this is an unusual case.
  15. Thanks Snubber Had a good day (and night) haven't gone to sleep yet, sitting in front of my monitors looking at code. (Such a geek!)
  16. 100 - 80/20 tends to work best in the eGo C
  17. Hey Modders, If you haven't been viewing the front page, do it, your missing girls and videos. I create post or 2 each day on the front of the site, "Vapettes, Vaping Randomness, Show your mod" etc etc I need some mods pics. So, if you want your mod up on the front page. Attached or a link a picture here. Clear and large is better I'll scoop em all up and post it on the front.
