I use "Simma Down Na!" on the wife frequently. Ever try it with @Hazel? Oh, and add it to the soundboard for streams please.

A wise soul suggested this topic for a thread and I think its a great idea! :100:

Vapers... I want to know what your first vaping experience EVER was like.
Who introduced you to vaping? What was your first impression?
What was your first time like? What vape popped your vaping cherry?

Tell me tell me !! :cool:

Carrying this over from the previous thread! Lol

This is the new official thread for discussions about Live Streams and Giveaways - the previous live stream thread with 2.4k posts can be found here.

The live stream recordings are unlisted on my youtube channel, here is the private link to my live stream playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVbe19x9sihBJu8Sb0YIRXJGQEyRtAdnz

LIVE STREAM ON YOUTUBE EVERY SATURDAY @ 6:00pm ET

Check this thread for the latest links to the current live streams. You can also get notifications from youtube when I schedule a new stream if you'd like.

There are also streams at random times during the week, and most of these are private and for forum members only, so I only post the links to them here when the streaming starts.

Giveaways every weekend on the Saturday streams

I try not to use this as a lead-in, but once a week I give something away on the streams, and it's usually pretty decent :100:

So come hang, and bring lots of bud :cool:

Delta 3D Studios coming soon to VPM :smile:

We're very excited to bring on Mike's line of American made accessories.

LOL I wish The form had the option to choose what sex you are. Not mandatory so people won’t feel weird and have to disclose, but it would be nice if there was an option so some people that wanted to could pick M or F... Sorry not including the option of X or yes or no for sex LOL

I too have hopped on the Milaana train! I love the overall simplicity of it and using it with water has been my favorite way to go so far. Easy to use, hard hitting, portable, and super pretty to look at it!

what a good guy.. guy right? Or gal? Lol if you’d rather not say that’s ok too lol

I stay out of the competitions, I would rather see them go to members. It's not like I need any more vapes :lol:

I like the idea of something special for OG members ... people who have been loyal followers of Vape Critic before the forum even and so forth. Maybe Bud will work it out so 1 or 2 of the giveaways are like this...

Btw- How sick is the black on black on black on negro! It’s like my soul ... tough, hard, and black ! :lol: (refrain from “that’s what she said” comments lol) I love the idea of the black mouth piece / tube whatever you call that thing!

@VapeCritic

Throwback to 5 years ago :scream:

Guess. What. Ladies ...:cool: :fire: :halo:



@VapeCritic @Baron23

DUDE thank you for asking, i completely forgot that i have an EpicVape code for the E-nano, the code is VAPECRITIC10 for 10% OFF

Hey guys,

Quick update that my Dynavap code STAYUP will now give you 10% OFF your entire order instead of free shipping like it did previously, which should work out to a bigger discount on most orders. :ok:

Splinter is not a whole vape because it needs a battery (mod). One could argue the MV1 is not a vape without the battery but that's kinda silly now isn't it?

In this case the mod battery you use can have influence on the overall performance so even more reason it's incomplete. That said if you just get a decent mod and a Splinter you can have some of the best bang for your buck in vapor taste/density. But still hot like many convection vapes out there. I personally have adjusted my technique to minimize the heat but it takes practice and the MV1 really shines in that department.

Starting at 12:30 ET:

My personal feelings are that all 510 herb attachments need to be grouped into somewhat of a single category, and they can really only be compared to each other.

All herb attachments work the same way in that you need your own box mod to power the heater, and you also need some kind of mouthpiece to draw out of or a glass rig to hook it up to.

So when you only compare 510 vapes to each other it's cool because you're really just comparing how the heaters work, since the power supply and vapor path will vary from user to user depending on what other parts they use.

Things get murky IMHO when you start comparing 510 attachments to fully developed vapes that contain all components inside of a cohesive unit.

For example my original comment was made when @evolve asked how the MV1 compares to the Splinter Z, which I feel is the wrong question to ask and the answers won't be helpful to anyone. Since the Splinter is just the heater, and the MV1 is the entire package, it's comparing apples to oranges. I replied and said "the Splinter is half of a vape".

I don't dislike the Splinter or any other 510 attachments for that matter, I just feel they need to be in their own group since they're not really complete vapes, and they didn't have to go through the same type of development.

The same dilemma happens with desktop vapes that you have to use with a glass rig, in those cases I'm really just reviewing a heater because everything that happens after the vapor is produced is not up to the vape, you choose your own vapor path.

As we all know, the style, shape, length and materials used in the vapor path can largely determine how comfortable the vapor is when it hits your lips, which will influence your overall experience of the vape.

Using the MV1 as an example again, they put a lot of time and work into the heat sink area which is where a lot of the magic happens, and this is one of the most important aspects of this vape that makes it produce higher quality and more comfortable vapor than most others.

So when you try and compare vapes like these two it really starts to create a mess, just IMHO.

The closest competitor to the Splinter would probably be the StemPod right?

That's what I'm talkin about Ghost! :100:

Btw guys here is the main Stealth MV1 thread: https://forum.vapelife.com/discussion/4057/new-ghost-mv1-stealth-edition

Hey Guys,

Our new MV1 Stealth Edition is already making waves but we want to make it even easier for VapeLife members to get their hands on one.

Nothing beats a free prize weekly giveaway, so we are sending Bud 4 X Stealth Bundles for a few very lucky subscribers.

Each giveaway bundle will include a Stealth MV1, Fast Charger, Spare Battery and Crucible Dispenser, so stay tuned for details on how to enter once he returns from the vape cave.

We will also be announcing a very special trade in program later this week that will allow existing MV1 owners to trade in their original device for a new Matt Black Stealth model - for only $169.

By trading in your original MV1, you will also be doing your bit for a very worthy cause.

All trade in units will be refurbished, upgraded and then fully tested, before going out to Vitolo for his ‘Pay It Forward Program’.

The refurbished units will be gifted to pre-qualified, low income medical patients and veterans suffering from PTSD and other conditions.

Vito has been running this program tirelessly for the last few years and we are honored to contribute to this truly worthy cause.

More to follow shortly but we do promise to make it widely available with very few restrictions.

A few of you have also been asking about the latest Firmware update.

For the avoidance of doubt we will indeed be releasing a new Firmware Update very soon but we can’t give a specific day and time just yet - please stay tuned for a separate announcement.

The Team @GHOST

Sick giveaways comin in hot :fire:

I cant be the only one to think @VapeCritic needs a code for @PuffItUp naturally only one code would work...

Cool beans. I want that version regardless!! Matches the track car

@Magicman will tell you guys what he thinks :100:

Few more pics:

Sup dudes,

Ghost just released their matte black Stealth Edition MV1, same price as the other colors but this one is not shiny and is completely blacked out :death: :fire:



As of today all units (all colors) are shipping with the updates this Stealth unit has, which includes:

Updated Heat Sink assembly - if you still have the original heat sink and mouthpiece there is a new version that is a little more consistent and has less issues.

Updated door latch - some people reported problems with their latches over time and they worked on fixing any issues, it now opens and closes very smoothly right out of the box.

Tightened tolerances - they've been making slight tweaks over time to "tighten" the feel of the vape and all its parts.

New firmware version - I'm pretty sure they will be rolling this update out to everybody real soon, but I'll let them give the final word on that.

New UV finish on back side - The "soft touch" finish that some of us had problems with has been upgraded to a highly durable matte-UV finish that will not peel.



Trade-in program for forum members:

I'm going to leave the fine details to Ghost, but they are going to be doing a "trade-in" program for you guys with this new Stealth model.

If you have an original unit and you want this new one they will sell you the Stealth one for almost 50% off, then send you a prepaid shipping label to return your used unit to them.

With the returned units they receive they're doing something really cool and admirable, they teamed up with Vitolo from FC and will be donating all of the returned units to veterans and other low income people with disabilities who are in need.

Please standby for more details from @ghostvapesofficial

SPAM you're done we've all had enough of you

No battery wood vapes yet hopefully one day.

Do-over stream in a few mins

The people that are upset should get over it.. bud doesn’t HAVE to do a stream, he also gives away stuff all the time, hooks everyone up with little weed picks (that he pays for and ships), and shirts etc.. he’s a regular guy who is passionate about vaping just like us.. it’s not like if the president had an important speech and showed up hamboned.. it was a small livestream.. bud has also been a huge help in the vape community. His reviews are very informative and has helped me not waste a bunch of money on the wrong vape. I quit drinking 4 years ago and still found that entertaining. The nectar collector “table edition” was pretty darn epic! Lol

Wow! It was definitely an interesting stream. Or at least the first couple hours, i worked 11 hours and didnt get home til 2 a.m. so i fell asleep b4 the end. While I agree that last night may not have been the most ideal way for a stream to go, i think peeps should lay off a lil. So bud was a bit drunk... He had been celebrating his dads B-day (happy bday Vape Dad). As far as I'm concerned as long as Bud didn't drive home from their dinner, there isn't a problem. Bud gives us countless hours of live streams all week long, and now people want to unload because he was drunk? Give the guy a break. Again I agree this is not my prefered approach to a stream, but seriously, lighten up on the guy. I imagine most of us have been in a similar situation. For those who are sober I both applaud and respect that you have chosen to make a change in your life for the better, but not everyone is in the same position, and it should be OK for others to have a few drinks if/when they want too. Thanks for all the entertainment @VapeCritic and @Hazel. You guys rock! Now to finish watching the stream. Hope you don't feel to crappy this morning bud.

I know for a fact many people who vaporize or smoke weed do not drink. — PAM

And many people who vape or smoke week do indeed still drink.

why did i watch or keep watching — PAM

A question I asked myself after reading your comments

sorry for being harsh but I'm blunt — PAM

Ok, so you are sober. .Have you come across the idea that being honest and being brutally honest are not the same thing? One is a virtue, the other is an excuse for what can be rude, boorish, and aggressive behavior.

That and, from first hand experience, there seems to be a bit of a pitfall where many who quit something, former cig smokers and drinkers principal amongst them, due to circumstances in their personal life and then seem to develop a certain degree of self-righteousness and have a tendency to universalize their experience and project it to others. Just something to consider.

@Hazel - it was a LS....so, you guys were lively. Where's the harm. Seriously, girl....do not worry about this crap and please don't obsess over any negative comments. No matter what you do, there will always be negative comments. IMO, you are outstanding and deserve to feel that way.

Cheers

I found it entertaining! Bud was hammered and y’all were having fun! (Well, probably him more than you lol).. I don’t look at the live stream like the reviews, they can be more relaxed. Do i wanna see “schwasted bud” every stream? Probably not.. but it shows he’s just a normal guy hustling through life and likes to let loose too.
But I did learn 1 important thing last night..
FUCK ROSIN!!
Lol

:: FULL DISCLOSURE ::
Happy to hear some of you enjoyed stream. Feel bad .. not everyone gets my sense of humor & I come off a little too serious :groan: or bitchy :zip: What the F. That SUCKS! :yikes:

Also, I’m anxious to be on camera bc of work (even tho the wigs & lighting really change what I look like), but I want to be able to come on cam & interact normally with you all. It’s an internal struggle. You’re all so amazingly fun! And I seriously want to shill the shit out of how awesome you are all day/night long.. without being a shill lol (was that even used in the right context?)

I’m totally not used to being on cam tho! I kept looking down to read your comments & then up at Bud bc he was talking (naturally) & then at my phone, & then up at screen comments on computer, & then back at Bud, & then I was too quite or too talkative... & I guess I wasn’t a great sidekick yesterday. Sorry!!! :cry:

I’m really not a bad wife or sidekick!! I love you all & all the support. And I love Bud & his spills, & slips, & burns, & breaks, & drinks, & hair, & all of it. We don’t really fight for reals..we just bicker sometimes.. but it’s all in good fun. We hug it out! I’ll have to take my intensity down a notch somehow. Can’t be having so many dislikes. :down: It’s gotta be because Hazel ruined the show. Whomp whomp. No one dislikes Bud. He da man.

Hopefully you all still love Bud (which I’m sure you do!) & enjoyed someee of your time with me. It was fun being in the big boy seat. Long stream for me tho lol iz get tired. And cranky when I don’t fumar el green. And at the very least... if it was a total shit show.. at least...I SAVED THE DAB GLOB that flew off the paper & magically stuck to the desk.. completely .. AGAIN... I was able to salvage a decent amount & well... the rest... he salvaged with the honey suckle off the desk himself! :joke:

So hopefully you don’t hate Mrs. Hazel or any of her alter egos (Hashley - red head) or (Spliffany - blonde). :pray: :heart: And if you do... then that sucks cuz they love you all! Xo
