What's up vape bros! It's your boy Andrei from Wisp Vape Lounge & Juice Bar!

Let's talk about myself today *wink* on why do I blog/vlog.

Almost a year ago, just like the rest of you guys, I was tired and gut-sick of smoking and I got scared on what will happen to me if I continue puffin that poison. My wife and I bought an RX200 and OBS Crius and my journey started. From variables, I moved to tube/mech mods and off to collecting rare/pretty/expensive/weird and unique mods/atomizers.

January 14, 2016. This is the first photo of my very first vape unit

Most of my knowledge are supplied by the almighty internet (esp. YouTube) then something came up, we are lacking pinoy reviewers! So, with a big guts and a thick face, I uploaded one video and poof there you have it.

After a couple of days, some positive response and a bit of haters, I've decided to give it a shot since it's fun and I get to practice my coms skills! Soon, hopefully, I'll transition to puuuure English lol and see where it will go right?

To my shock, people actually are trying to find pinoy reviewers. So I researched lots of stuff on how to improve my "reviewing" thing but with a limited budget, I sticked with my iPhone6Plus, a DIY tripod and borrowing a laptop from my brother (sometimes I upload raw :s).

The continued support of thousands of fellow vapers inspired me to keep going, building the channel, educating and informing fellow vapers, new and experienced whether online or in-person. Hearing how my videos helped people is heartwarming.

Unlike other international review channels, I am un-sponsored and not financially backed by anyone in the vaping industry. Though, there was one modder who really supports me on my career and I believe it's fair to give him a big shout-out for his help and trust! Thank you so much Neil Paguia of Vapebreed Philippines for helping me out. I am fine with these as I would like to provide un-biased reviews and experience so even though I receive a little bit of support from a modder, I review their product base on my experience and preference and I provide my own pros and cons...no exception.

Since I've become more active in social media in the past few weeks (both Facebook, YouTube & Blog), I set a goal to release at least 2-3 blog write-ups/reviews and 1-2 YouTube reviews.

Not only I review stuff but I talk about our advocacy which is my main goal. To help and open the eyes of those who are skeptic and to give vapers a fair right to be healthy.

VapeBro News: What's up PINAS! Anyare!

The Green Ribbon Movement

What's up vape bros!

As we all know, regulation is just right out the corner. In Mandaluyong (one of the major city here in the Philippines) our battle for our right began, but before we discuss that, I just want to rant about the ignorance of some "intelligent" government officials and their goons.

According to the smart people of DOH:

e-juice has been confirmed to contain cancer-causing chemicals. As of this writing, the FDA is still to make its official stand.

 F**k me! Cancer-causing materials? Bitch please... What do you guys think?

Okay, here's my vape story:

I started smoking when I was 16 years old, I was never a hardcore-chains-smoker, I smoke 3-5 sticks per day (0-3 if weekend). I smoke a lot when I'm drinking and if I'm bored af. I started vaping last 2012 with my pentype vape and got bored of it, maybe because of the weak vapor production and throat hit and I was clueless back then when it comes to vaping and eventually quit after 1-2 months. I go back to sticks until I have realized that I might die early. I was too afraid of that fact and I know I'm on my way there. December 2015, I've researched lot of facts and myths about vaping, educate myself on what products/device should I use and those stuff. Then come January, I consulted my wife (who is a smoker as well) and I bought my very first variable, RX200 and OBS Crius (plus other essentials) for php7,500 from UrbanMist. It was expensive back then (and is still is now). It's so expensive I've decided to use it by heart (sayang php7,500 men!). From that day, January 15, 2016 up until now (almost 1 year!), I haven't touch or tried smoking and the good thing is my wife is also converted as well! I love vaping and the community, I have decided to put up a shop Wisp Vape Lounge & Juice Bar and support those who wanted to let go of smoking, it became one of our sources of income and I admit, the shop really helped us a lot. But the real reason behind my switch to vaping is; I wanted to see my daughter grow, I want to retire with a good health, I want to be rich and give back to my parents. I WANT TO LIVE LONG!

I want to encourage all vapers to share their stories as well and let the non-vaping community know that we are not blowing clouds but we do it for a cause.

Okay, going back to my rant. Why can't the government support vaping? Why does "WHO" says that vaping is bad and much more dangerous? Why do stupid people exist? Where do ignorant people come from? I don't have the answer for everything but as the old saying goes, "Money is the root of all evil"...indeed.

Tobacco companies provide billions of taxes to the government and the government doesn't care if you smoke 1-10 packs a day, they only care on how much you will spend on your ticket to hell!

Here's an example, COUNCILOR Alexander Sta. Maria;

From LNTV.ph;

Ayon kay Konsehal Alexander Sta. Maria, ipagbabawal na ang paggamit at pagbenta ng mga electronic cigarettes at may kaukulang penalidad sa sinumang lalabag sa ordinansa oras na maipasa ito bilang suporta sa kampanya ng Pangulong Duterte na may anti-smoking drive sa buong bansa.

Let's stop it right there, he said the ban is to support President Duterte's anti-smoking drive in the Philippines? What-the-actual-f? Seriously?

But on a serious note and to clarify shit things up, vaping is NOT banned in Mandaluyong (for now). PECIA and the newly formed MCVA (Mandaluyong City Vapers Association) are currently on the frontlines to fight for our right. As they said, IT'S NOT A TOTAL BAN BUT A REGULATION. But look at this alleged draft by the city council of Mandaluyong.

 

You'll be the judge, is this what you call a FAIR REGULATION?

Here's my proposal:

• All vape shops and those who are planning to start a vape shop needs to register and complete all necessary documents to run a business whether it be online selling or physical.
• All juice makers/laboratories and those who are planning to; are required to get necessary permits.
• All vape shops, modders and juice makers are required to pay their taxes in accordance with Republic Act No. 8424 (“The Tax Reform Act of 1997”) --OHA! Please correct me if I'm correct.
• Prohibit vaping in a non-smoking public area (e.g. Public Transportation, Public Parks, etc.)
• Require private business owners (i.e. Restaurants, Cafe) to have a vaping sign for designated vaping areas.
• All vape shops, modders and juice makers should require ID and/or birth certificate to allow verification before purchase.
• Penalize sidestreet vendors that sells vaping product.

If only we have a transparent / NOT MUKANG PERA government official. Oh well. Let's do our part, let's not wait for them, let's bring the fight to them.

If you support vaping please join PECIA. Let us protect our right to vape, educate the ignorant, teach the stupid and vape with a cause. I laugh at those who said "I support vaping", changing their Facebook shit and stuff but they don't do shit in real life. Come on guys, yes we need your like and share but do you think the government will go to Facebook and see how many likes and share we have for them to stop this nonsense? I don't think so. PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL VAPESHOP AND MESSAGE ME IF YOU SEE VAPE SHOPS THAT ENTERTAINS MINORS!

We're just getting started!

REVIEW: Vapebreed 24mm RDA by Vapebreed Philippines

What's up vape brooooo! Andrei here from Wisp Vape Lounge & Juice Bar!

How are you guys doing?

For a very long time I've been using my Vapebreed v2 RDA and hands-down it's one of my favorite RDA of all time then this awesome RDA came along. Introducting the Vapebreed 24mm RDA! Yeap you heard it right! 24*freaking*mm!

Some of you will think "Ah, it looks like the Vapebreed v1 RDA (22mm)" right? Hell no! Let's get down to business shall we?

First of all, size...everything were upsized like crazy! I'll give you the basic specs:

• -24mm in diameter
• -2 Post
• -2mm coil holes
• -2mm x 7mm 4 Holes
• -Bottom and Side Airhole
• -16mm (inner) Wide Bore chuff cap
• -Spitback protection
• -304 Stainless Steel
• -Peek High-end Engineering Insulator
• -5mm Deep Juicewell
• -Deep-engraved
• -Silver coated, Non-adjustable copper positive pin (protruded +.5mm for Hybrid)
• -Cotton guide in atomizer base

Alright, the numbers are crazy, let's start off with the diameter of the RDA. Three words...BIG-ASS-BEAST! With the 24mm dome, you'll get to create monstrous coil styles and alot of space for airflow which means big damn clouds! Speaking with coil styles, to partner the monstrous space, I present to you, the deck...

Right?! So those holes are 2mm wide each, meaning, parallel all days or any crazy stuff that you can think off! As you can see on the preview, 5mm deep juice*freaking*well? How deep is that shit? Enough to keep you off dripping every nth time! Look at the traditional bottom airflow, this will allow flavor to build up so even though you have yourself a cloudmonster it can still give you a well balance for both flavor and vapor.

Another look at the deck

As you can see, they have carried over the v1's look but upsized everything. Look the f---- at that big ass wide bore chuff cap, 16mm to be exact, armed with the spitback protection.

Another artistic shot of the deck

You will probably notice those holes in the bottom deck. It has total of 4 base holes, what's it for? It's a wicking guide for those first timers who will use this atomizer. They don't have that in their previous versions. It was because of the number 1 feedback from them, the spilling. Though they have a troubleshooting from their page, some folks are really having a hard time (they said) to prevent this. So there you go, a hole where you can align your wick! (ugh!)

Black Version

Alright, so the snapshot above is the black version, as you can see, the AFC (Airflow Control) is gold, the gold version has a black AFC and the SS version has black AFC as well. The pin is silver coated copper pin and is non-adjustable BUT Vapebreed decided to protrude it by .5mm more for hybrid users.

The deck and the variants

The atomizer is made of 304 stainless steel and the logo is deep engraved so expect your logo to not fade because it's TOP NOTCH! And hey it's available on my shop and the price is php2,000 wtf! Grab yours now! 

Here are my pro's and con's-

PROS:

• Big deck/dome for building
• Max vapor
• Spitback protection
• Cotton guide
• Very good technical support/after-sales service
• Adjustable airflow
• Budget friendly

CONS:

• Some will say it's a hassle to adjust bottom AFC (I beg to differ)
• Also heard that some wanted a v2 style deck (but meh)

That's it lol! Can't think of any cons! Anyway---

Most Amazing Atomizer 2016

That's it for me bros! It is indeed one of the best atomizers out there in the market, price is good and the quality is the best. I give this atomizer 10/10 stars!

Again thank you so much for reading this! Please support me on all of my channels and remember, vape responsibly bros! Ciao!

Stealthy Beast! Pisces T by J2M Mods

What's up vape bros! Andrei here!

I haven't had a pre-order list for a while aside from the successful Loki RDA (for a whooping 50 pieces!) and now I'm back but this time it will be a awesome, stealthy yet powerful high-end mod from one of the best modder out there John John Fruto of J2M Mods......*DRUM ROLL* It's the comeback of Pisces T!

Let's start up by giving you some sneak peek of this beautiful beast.

J2P Mods

Look at that size?! This setup is for the 18490 Battery but it can house the traditional 18650 FFS!

It can be disassembled in 5 parts! I call them the atty base, firing switch, top adjustable cylinder, bottom adjustable cylinder, and the center base (fancy).

Look at that? Isn't she beautiful?

Too much eye candy eh? Buuut! Behind that beauty and package, it's a sleeping beast! Partner it with a good 22mm atomizer and you got yourself a badass princess!

Here's some specs:

• Telescopic Style
• 304 Stainless Steel
• Copper Contacts
• Floating Positive Pin
• 18650 Batteries
• Spring Loaded
• Resin Firing Switch
• Deep Engraving
• Locking Mechanism
• Outside diameter of the mod = 21.7mm
• Height (using AW 18650 battery) = 83.43mm
• 4 vent holes
• Reverse threaded switch
• Adjustable throw on switch (Tight or Loose)

You can actually use 18490 on this baby but those kind of batteries are hard to find nowadays. Looking at the firing switch, maaaaan, you will be vaping for days because resin is high heat resistant.

Resin firing switch, sexy right?

There you have it guys! Hey! My pre-order is up on my shop, 20 slots! This beast costs php3,000 only! What the f....!? High-end mod for that price? Why not! Here's the link for the pre-order list. ETA is 1st week of December 2016, so yes gooooooo reach out!

Once again this has been Andrei from Wisp Vape Lounge & Juice Bar, stay safe, vape responsibly, see you next time vape bros!

RANT! Ang vaping ay para sa mga nag yosi lamang?....NOT!

Kamusta mga vape bros!

Ating talakayin ang isang nakakaasar na paksa ngayon sa industriya ng vaping, ang paksa na "Ang vaping ay pede lamang sa mga taong naninigarilyo or nanigarilyo". Ito ay isang malaking kalokohan! Bakit kamo? Ang pag vavape ay walang pinipiling estado sa buhay, kung ang layunin mo ay hindi matukso sa paninigarilyo, vape! Kung gusto mong umiwas sa pagyoyosi, vape! Kung di ka naman nag yoyosi pero na eenganyo ka sa usok (at maaring maging mitsa ng pag subok ng yosi), vape!

Gusto mong masampal?

Mga kaibigan, ang pag vavape ay hindi dahil gusto mo lang maging sikat or mag mukang astig, bagkos gusto mong makaiwas sa #&@*^$(@# yosi na yan. Kung sino man ang naka imbento ng linyang "ang vape ay para lamang sa mga nanigarilyo", isa kang malaking bayag!

Paano tayo magiging maganda sa paningin ng non-vaping community kung pati tayo ay nag babangayan? Wag tayong maging maramot! Kung gusto ng isang tao mag vape regardless if he/she is a smoker or not, instead of criticizing them, why not educate them? Diba mas makakatulong pa yun?

As a friendly reminder guys, image ng buong vaping community ang nakasasalay sa pag uugali ng bawa't isa satin. Katulad ngayon, meron nagaganap na COP7 na maaring maging mitsa ng katapusan ng vaping industry kaya sino sino pa ba mag tutulungan? Tayo din right? Let's act mature and educated. Yun lang!

Stay tuned for more!
