My Volcano ecig keeps dying!

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.

What is an ecig complaint without Volcano in it?

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…?

Electronic Cigarettes are Great when you got the right one

There is a sea of electronic cigarettes out there.  I went through about four different brands and models before I found the one I stuck with.  There are so many ranging from Free trial to $200.  How do you tell what is good and what is crap..?  Well, I put this site up to bitch about the junk brands I have tried and I hope you will too!  We need to cut down the amount of brands out there.  Well, like most people I stumbled onto the NJoy brand.  Big corporate type with cash for advertising etc…  It did the job, but I had to go back to the store about once a week to change a battery or check my atomizer.  I paid $115 for my kit and $25 for my cartridge refills.  I thought damn, not as expensive as cigarettes, but this is irritating always coming back to the store for parts.  Soon they wouldn’t replace my stuff and I had to send it back to the mainland company which took too long.  Then I read about NJoy and realized I was smoking on shitty ecigs.  Damn!  Not too long later I saw those Green Smokes on the web right next to Blucigs in the google search.  Thought it looked cool like a cigarette at FIRST, then when I later thought about it.  If I am trying to quit cigarettes, then why do I want to use something that resembles one?  Hmmm.  Good question to ask yourself.  Anyways, I then read up a little and apparently the Green smoke ecigs are two piece ecigs which are not that efficient.  Also the small battery doesn’t give you enough vaping time.  Another two brands bite the dust!  When I got my Blucig, I thought it was the bomb with the charging pack and little mini ecigs.  BUT I was wrong.  The Vapor was so weak and the battery didn’t hardly last even with the charging pack.  I was so disappointed.  I was still in teh 60 return window, so that was good, got my money back.  I saw the volcano ecig, but didn’t get one because my friend got one and his looked and performed exactly like my blucig.  Even more disappointing to see two companies selling the same damn ecig with a different name.  Plus I read some bad stuff about Volcano too.  They hype their product with youtube videos.  Well I tell you my blu and my friends Volcano did not perform the same as seen on TV so to speak…!  Read another Blog electronic cigarette Hawaii, one similar to this one, and found out about Vapor Tokers.  A local company here in Hawaii like Volcano.  Their site could use some work that is for sure, but their products looked ok, plus they had a lot of good reviews.  I got me a Toker 1 and FINALLY, an ecig that put out some vapor, however, it is bigger than the minis, but that is ok, I just wanted something that worked already.  Coolness aside, performance is what I wanted.  I used my Toker 1 for about 8 Months, then I recently got the Fatty, a newer style mini.  So far the best ecig I have ever tried.  Well, that is my story in a nut shell.  I spent about $500 bones before I got me a Toker.  Been using it since. 

Please share your experiences too.  People that are searching for the right ecig need your help to learn from your mistakes and mine.  This is meant to be a simple site to learn from, not those confusing and misleading forums out there, where all the hard core ecig druggies I call them.  Trying to invent the super ecig the size of a gas can…lol
