Hawaii ECig Critics Express their experiences

I spent about $200 on the Volcano Magma.  I have two PCCs and 5 batteries that I use to keep me through the day.  I had two of my atomizers go out in the two weeks.  Yesterday I was sitting with my friend and my battery died before she smoked 3 cigarettes.  I was kind of embarrassed that my electric cigarette died after she only smoked three cigarettes.  This is getting very irritating, and I can’t keep buying more and more batteries to carry.  I planning on getting that Fatty that I’m reading about because the battery is supposed to last long.  I like vaping, but this battery changing and atomizer replacing is getting out of hand.  If you want to know how good the charging pack ecigs perform, well, you will kill the battery before the pack can recharge it, so spend more money and get extra batteries.  Anyone else have this problem? Any recommendations? I already ordered the Fatty, I’ll let you know how it is when I get it.

Anyone who has used these probably can concur with me on this one.  I though I was upgrading when I got rid of my NPro.  I still wanted the cigarette look, but looks and size makes a difference with ecigs i guess.  Not much better in performance and the batteries suck ass!  I am really tired of these mini ecigs.  I guess I have to get one of those larger ones.  I sampled my friends Volcano Magma, and not much to say about those either.  I just don’t want to be carrying 4 batteries with me to use all day.  The Fatty sounds intriging.  Maybe I’ll try that, but just some advice.  If you smoke a lot, then don’t buy a mini.  Unless you don’t mind the hassle.  Plus if you think about it, if you are trying to quit cigarettes, then why use something that resembles one…hmmm good question!

Hi,

I got a 901 for my birthday.  It is ok, but I’m trying to find a better ecig.  Is this as good as it gets?  or is there something better?  I want to quit, but it is pretty hard.  I am looking to see if anyone knows about a better ecig.  There are so many damn ecigs now.  I want one with a longer lasting battery, not too big, and a little more vapor would be nice.  Thank you for your help!
How are the 510s?

Crap man, I should have done some research first.  I picked up a kit at the swamp meet from ecig hawaii.  I though I was getting all the fixings.  It comes in a red box, that kind of reminds me of elementary school and my pencil case.  I’m not saying it was bad, but I wish I got a better one, I still paid around $90 in items.  I didn’t know there was better ones.  They were nice people and all, but we all would rather have the best stuff.  Anyways, I feel so much more enlightened after reading the posts.  Thanks guys!

Hi, I have been using Green Smoke for a couple weeks.  It seems to be ok, but I have been reading things in different forums about them being bad.  I seems to work ok.  Sometimes it acts up, but I just bang it and shake it till it works again…lol  I kind of want a better one, I was thinking about getting the volcano.  Their site looks nice and I saw some videos.  But I don’t want to get another ecig that is going to be similar to the one I already have.  What is the point in changing, if it ends up being the same thing with the same problems.  I wish the battery would last longer, even with the charging pack, it really doesn’t help.  I don’t even use the pack to charge the ecig anymore because it takes too long and I get a better charge off the wall.  I’ll do more research, but I always love suggestions.  Thanks everyone!

Hey, Alex back with an update.  I got my Fatty today and I want to cry, this thing is so good.  The Vapor is killer and the battery is going strong.  I’ll update you when it dies, but I use it about every 5 minutes and it has been a champ for the last 5 hours.  Very nice look.  Small.  My 510 atomizers fit it, but the atomizer it comes with is way better and the cart holds more juice.  This thing makes some dense vapor, OMG!  I got 510 parts for sale.  Reply if you want them.  This is all I need now.  No more carrying them extra batteries, just as advertised, it is simply amazing.  Of course I’ll update you in a few days, things are always good at first.  But this thing seems pretty solid.  Definately a smart purchase.

Happy Happy Vaping!

Been vaping the 510 for a while now.  It was pretty good.  Definately, helped me quit.  I was a half pack type of person a day.  I personally like the Manual version better than the automatic.  I had a lot of battery problems with the automatic version, the juice would get in it and kill the battery.  I saw some posts about Sovereign and Volcano 510 models.  A friend of mine used a Volcano Magma (510), I compared the parts to my 510 and the atomizer looked different.  Mine seemed to generate a little more vapor, I think the ring in the Magma or Sovereign atomizer is the problem, but what do I know.  That seemed to be the major difference.  But now I’m actually over the 510 because the battery life is just crap.  It was good while it lasted.  Sorry 510, time for your retirement. lol  Now there are better ecigs out there with longer lasting batteries.  I’m here in Hawaii for the summer and just ordered a Fatty.  Can’t wait, the Fatty reviews are great…I’ve been waiting for an ecig like this.  Long lasting battery, and still a mini!  I’ll updat you when I get it!

Does anyone know how to get a hold of Sovereign esmokes?  I wanted to upgrade my atomizer but their site is not up right now.  I know they have the same ecig and the parts are cheaper, but I can’t get online.  Do they have a support email?  My magma pack doesn’t work anymore and I need a replacement, but I am not going to buy another kit from them.  They will not change my pack, bastards!  Any info would be greatly appreciated.  thanks!

Now you can’t have ecig complaints without Volcano being in the mix.  Where do you start.  Obviously the Blucig Look-a-like with the charging packs that were deemed unsafe by the FDA.  Packs that started fires, warning!  They have now changed that since Blucig cock blocked them, now selling sovereign esmoke look-a-likes.  Same design from the same factory.  I was livid, when I found out I could have just bought a sovereign for $20 cheaper than the Magma…I was more livid, when they wouldn’t replace my atomizer.  i read somewhere, they do not replace atomizers after three days of use.  lol  What kind of policy is that?  One that gets them on the avoid list.  I know atomizers die, but three days, come on dudes.  I also read that they tried to sue a moderator of a blog for not deleted posts of bad reviews they got from some of their customers.  wild!  Unfortunately, people get distracted by the flashy marketing.  A lot of ecig companies out there have great looking sites and videos, but their products don’t back up their advertising.  Disappointed is more like it.  I would rather pay cash to a street vendor if the product performed good.  Spend less money in advertising and more in development…So they get a big thumbs down from me.  But who am I.  Find out for yourself.  All ecigs work great for a day or two, but do they perform consistently after day three…? 

Good Luck people,

Sorry Folks, I noticed that Electronic Cigarette Hawaii did a redesign and my site looked a little plain, so I decided to try and redo it just like the other guys did, but my programming skills are not the best so I lost my database connection, so I consequently lost posts that were placed, so no worries, just continue to criticize the ecigs and repost if you remember what you talked about.  Remember your truthful critiques help others save time and money.  Sorry about that folks.  I’m no programmer, just a blue colar kind of guy.  Do drywall if anyone needs…hehe.
