By a show of hands, how many of you are nostalgic for 2013? Well, consider this your lucky day. Because Vision e-cigarettes -- one of the original “biggies” of the vaping industry -- has rebooted the classic Spinner vape pen, in the form of the all-new Spinner 3. Does a dial-driven, voltage-only vape pen have a [...]
Innokin Zlide 16W Tube Review - Wow. We’re never going to complain about not getting Innokin products again. In the last month, we’ve received no fewer than five brand-new kits to review [ED: With another one coming!] and suddenly, Spinfuel VAPE looks like an Innokin catalog. (just kidding) But we’re not complaining -- if Innokin was [...]
Horizon Falcon 80W Vape Pen Review - These days, when the vaping industry seems on the precipice of disaster, there’s something comforting about a good, old-fashioned tube mod. Or pen mod. Or stick mod. Or whatever it is that the kids are calling them these days. Even though there’s nothing really connecting this advanced pen [...]
The first e-cigarettes to hit the market were available in only one style known as the cigalike style. It got its name from sometimes being stylized as a cig-a-like. Today, e-cigs are available in a variety of different styles, providing today's vapers with more options to choose from. While more options can be a good thing, [...]
Intro and Specs for the SMOK NORD AIO 19 In the words of the well-known (and confusingly popular) DJ Khaled, “Another one, Another one.” Why the random pop culture reference? It seems the venerable SMOK has added to its ever-growing vape pen lineup with the NORD AIO 19mm – an all-in-one 1,300mAh pen style vape aimed at [...]
Intro and Specs for the Falcon Beak Kit Certain products lend themselves to being referred to like a nickname. “I’m gonna drive the Benz today.” “Fire up the Weber and make some burgers.” “Nice Ray-Bans you’ve got there, Reverend!” Well, that doesn’t seem to apply to vape products, because lord knows you’ll never hear me shout, [...]
Pen-style vape mods. You either love ‘em or loathe ‘em. Me? I’m usually bored by them, but occasionally one comes along that changes your tune. While there’s nothing groundbreaking or revolutionary about the all-new Innokin Plexar 100W pen-style mod kit, it does its sole job exceedingly well, which is statement unto itself. Light, but substantial. Sturdy, [...]
Freemax Twister Kit Review - Everything old is new again. After a few years where all we dealt with was box mods of ever-increasing wattage outputs, we’ve come full circle. Pod mods, MTL vaping, and now tube mods are all back in force. But you know what? They’ve gotten better… and the Freemax Twister Kit [...]
The mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping resurgence is officially in full swing. It’s not a fad. It’s not a trend. It’s the industry coming full-circle, bringing vaping back from the land of “sport” and placing it in front of ex-smokers, where these products belong. And maybe that’s the reasoning behind the name of the all-new GeekVape Flint [...]
It’s 2019. What could a direct-wattage pen/stick mod like the SMOK Stick V9 Max possibly have to offer? More battery capacity? We’ve seen better. Higher power output? This caps at 60 watts on a good day. Pocket-friendliness? The V9 Max is one of the widest, heaviest pen-style mods around. Smoother performance? Well… let’s get into [...]
SMOK SLM Intro and Specs Well, it’s finally happened, vapers. We’ve come full circle. A mere 11 years after e-cigarettes first hit the public consciousness, SMOK has taken the pod mod phenomenon back to its roots, delivering the “cig-a-like-like” SMOK SLM pod system to the masses. And unsurprisingly, not much has changed. The SLM sports a size-appropriate [...]
Vaping might be in society’s crosshairs, but that hasn’t seemed to get in the way of Juul Labs Inc., which just opened a new facility in Mountain View, California. Perhaps this move is a direct response to the negative response the company has faced in its San Francisco home. But it’s more likely it has to [...]
In October 2018, JUUL Labs announced that it was acquiring VMR products– maker of V2 Cigs – for $75 million. Although V2 Cigs was America’s leading online seller of cigalikes, V2’s sales paled in comparison to JUUL’s 75-percent share of the traditional brick-and-mortar e-cigarette market. V2 found themselves at an evolutionary dead end with their core [...]
At first glance the Aspire K2 Quick looks like a misplaced vape pen from 2013. And that’s not far off. The K2 Quick Start showed up more than 2 years ago, but I just decided a new review might be worth it since we’ve seen a resurgence of the vape pen this year.This type of [...]
Okay. Okay. I am convinced now that Mouth-to-Lung vaping will become a major segment of vaping community. I don’t know why, but more and more MTL atomizers, from RDAs and RTAs to prebuilt coil head tanks, mouth to lung vaping is, for many, an attractive method of vaping, and the Uwell Whirl 20/22 Vape Pen Starter [...]
