New E-Cig Study Reveals Crisis in Journalism

Kangertech Aerotank Mega

Just unpacked my new Aerotank Mega from Kangertech purchased at Exhale Vapor & Smoke Shop

At just under $30 (including sales tax),this unit is extremely handsome and seems very rugged. The tank allows for adjustable airflow to customize your vaping experience. If it is as durable as it seems, I should get years of use out of it. I made sure to get a 5-pack of coils since I wasn't sure how long they would last for me. I will post that information after using it for a while.

I currently have 1.8 ohm coils, as I was hoping to conserve on juice, but I think I would like to try a lower resistance just to see.
