HAS MIKE (ZEN) OFFICIALLY LOST IT? :-)
Has Zen (The House Of Hybrids) officially lost his marbles? Better question… has he ever had them in the first place? 🙂
He has released the worlds first (and probably last… pending sales of course) $1600.00 PV that uses Nautilus BVC (or BDC) Coils… the Sekushi…
The premise is completely outrageous… to intentionally ignore the commercial demands of the marketplace. To head down a path where economic feasibility is completely ignored… to create art for arts sake.
At least he’s being somewhat realistic about it…
I hope the lucky few people that will eventually own one of these (and trust me, there will be very very few of them) will hold the object as proudly as I present this device on behalf of my team. It is truly a thing of beauty that will stand as art in it’s own realm for generations to come.
He’ll be sending me 10 of them to review and giveaway… and of course… I kid.
So if you’re a Zen fan or collector, this one may be right up your gold laced alley. Find out more HERE.

The Post Review Follow-Up
- 7/31/15 – Many people have asked about the resistance fluctuation shown when using the Triton during the review. I verified that it was an issue with the tank itself or the coil head. I tried using several other attys on the device and the resistance locked and stayed within +/- .02 ohms.

- 7/21/15 – Response from the Good Ohm Boys… the folks who brought in the pole dancers:
Hey all. I wanted to address this as I am one of the co-owners of the Good Ohm Boys. First and foremost, if we offended any vaper, we apologize for that sincerely. We as a company, value this industry more than anything. We participate in advocacy here in NJ and we fight for our rights to vape in NJ every day. For those that know us, we are passionate about vaping and what it has done for all of us.
It was our first expo and wanted to have fun and spread the word about our e-liquids. Every person that helped us out that weekend are friends of ours and our two shops here in NJ. They all came to support us. They were proud to provide everyone that attended a good time including the dancers. The dancers were not strippers and that’s not what they do for a living. They dance for exercise and as a hobby. The derogatory comments towards them are quite outrageous. They are people too with feelings, emotions and pride. The outcry of hate on them has been quite atrocious.
We as a company will take the heat on this and if anything gain awareness to others that the industry should take a different direction to marketing. We weren’t doing anything different than what may have occurred at other expos or conventions to market companies’ brands. The squabbling or hate amongst us as vapers needs to stop. Let’s direct our efforts to more pressing issues at hand like advocacy on a national and state level for our rights to vape. If we exerted this much effort on talking about this incident, then why not direct all of it to our unified cause.

WELCOME TO THE FAMILY! MOUNTAIN OAK VAPORS – WAY OF THE DRAGON SERIES – WHITE LOTUS
I’d like to congratulate and welcome White Lotus from the Way of the Dragon Series by Mountain Oak Vapors to my list of favorite liquids!
I was originally told by a particular person not to mention this liquid because of what people might say. That person being Dimitris as he works for Mountain Oak. Personally, I don’t care what people may say. Liquids are added to this list because I enjoy them, because I vape them, and because I think they’re something special, NOT because of who they come from. After vaping as much of this liquid as I have been recently, I thought it time to add it to the list.
A delicious fruity cocktail of Apricot, Papaya, and Nectarine. There’s a bit of cream in this one that shines when a little more heat is applied. Apricot is the predominant flavor and is well rounded by the other two. It almost comes across as an “interesting peach”. Really tasty stuff here.
White lotus is a velvety blend of tropical fruits and cream that will leave you floating in an island breeze. This line of e-liquid was produced in collaboration between Vintage Vapors and Mountain Oak Vapors. We have come together to bring you the quality and knowledge from two great e-liquid companies.
THIS JUST IN… THE HCIGAR VT200
HCigar has just sent me a photo of their upcoming VT200 powered by a genuine Evolv DNA-200 board. Looks pretty good IMHO.
They’ve promised a review unit. Maybe we’ll incorporate a look at a few different DNA-200 devices into the DNA-200 review itself. That should make for an epic 4-hour long mini-series. 🙂

The Post Review Follow-Up:
- 7/16/15 – Something I missed in the review and was caught by a commenter (thanks waynecervantes). The coil needs to be removed from the RBA section to be re-wicked. A pretty big thumbs down for many people, including myself.

NEW IN THE QUEUE – THE NEW STEAM CRAVES ARE HERE – 7/14/15
THE NEW STEAM CRAVE RDAs & RTAs
I just received the entire batch of Steam Crave Aromamizer V2 RDAs and new RTAs.
A shout out to the Nobacconists who supplied a set at the Vapor Expo UK! The entire set came in again from Steam Crave. What does this mean? More giveaways for you! 🙂
Touted as “The Most Flavorful RDA” they feature a unique cyclone airflow system which is supposed to increase the flavor of your liquid. They also feature a “spit back” preventing drip tip design.
They’re available in hexagonal (22mm flat side to flat side), cylindrical (22mm), and cylindrical glass (22mm) designs and include tools, spare parts, and a 510 drip tip adapter. They’re $39.99 each on the Steam Crave website.
Now, they also have the Steam Crave RTA in a 6ml and 3ml version. They are also $39.99 each on their site. These I’m really looking forward to building and trying out!
