Device Review: Silverback Mod

 
If you're looking for a heavy hitting Filipino mod grab yourself a Silverback. Once you pick up the device you'll notice how pleasant it feels in your hand. The polished stainless steel and unbroken lines and 22mm modular tube makes it easy on the eyes. Running a 18350 battery, the Silverback is lightweight and extremely portable.

With a telescopic top pin and smooth locking ring, Vicious Ant made sure this mod was easy to use, and the bottom firing button has a short throw and is engraved with the Silverback logo.

Each mod comes engraved and serialized. 

Available for purchase in-store and online pick yours up today!

Name:

Lena because people can't seem to pronounce Marlena.  You're officially fired from Marlena if you pronounce it MarLAYna.

When is your Birthday?

02.26 Pisces baby!

Who's your favorite sport's team, and why?

If eating was a sport, my best friends, because we all know how to eat good!

What's your favorite flavor ice cream?

Mmm, ice cream.  My favorite would be vanilla because you can pair it with strawberries and brownies.  Ice cream sandwiches are my favorite. :)

What's your favorite movie quote?

Never thought about that... "Chocolate wasted!" Grown Ups.

Piercings/Tattoos? How many and where?

I have 4 ear piercings, 1 not seen unless I play Miley Cyrus, and a plumeria tattoo located on my left hip.  Will add more tattoos it's just a matter of finding the right artist to connect with.

The most embarrassing song on your iPod?

I don't have embarrassing songs on my iPod, but let's check my stations, nope.  I love all my songs.  But I know someone with N'Sync Holiday station on their Pandora! haha

What is the most memorable pick up line you've heard? Was it effective? Why or why not?

The most memorable, I'd say none.

What's the most dangerous thing you've ever done?

The most dangerous thing I've ever done was do the sky jump at the state fair with my friend Tram.  I was terrified at first and after a few curse words I had the time of my life.  I have a fear of heights, thank goodness I'm itty bitty fun size.

It's 4am after a crazy night of partying… What are we eating??

Marie's Donut!!!  Who doesn't like a whipped cream filled donut?  I know I do and my friend sure knows because I shoved my fur boots in his face until he took me! That was an awesome night I might add.

What is your go-to karaoke song?

Emmie and I love singing Alicia Keys - No One together. :)

What was your first job?

My first job, state fair cashiering for a crepe stand and OMG their chicken salad crepe with romaine lettuce, alfalfa sprouts, avocado and tomato was to die for.  I ate that everyday!

Tell us a joke.

I suck at telling jokes, but everything I find humorous tend to be sexual or someone getting hurt.  I love watching Americas Funniest Home Videos, I literally will laugh so hard even when I'm watching it alone.

Device Review: Ego C Twist

Joyetech has been hooking up people who are new to the vape game for a minute now so it's about time we give you our take on the Ego C-Twist 650.

The 650 is a great device to get started on. It's easy to use and maintain, light and portable, and extremely customizable. Between the different textures and colors, its compatibility with various tanks and accessories, the styles are endless. Unlike larger vapes, the Ego C-Twist has a compact look and provides discreet vaping for discerning public eyes.

If you're looking to blow clouds this device will get you there and is definitely enough for a new vaper to have some fun with.

Jezelle recommends the Ego C-Twist 650 to new vapers and we have to agree 100%!

Device Review: The Dominus Mod

What's up vape community! Planet of the Vapes will be presenting you with another brand new heavy hitter, the Dominus by Dominus Mods! This stainless steel mod is sleek with maximum airflow and great performance. A perfect addition to anyone's vape collection.

Check out VapeRev's review on the Dominus Mod:
Content & Photo source: http://www.vaperev.com/blog/dominus/ 

The Dominus design has been powered by function, providing you with a versatile mod that looks and feels as great as it performs! Presented to you in its’ 18650 mode, the sleek, stainless steel Dominus mod easily breaks down to house your choice of an 18650, 18490, or an 18350 battery. Similar to serving different purposes, both the 18490 and 18650 extensions are different in appearance; allowing you the option of placement. Since the Dominus can be broken down, the raised rings can be repositioned in whichever place that’s most comfortable for you.

The Dominus’ top cap has a 510 connection, with a unique air-hole design that has been perfectly spaced around the cap to increase airflow and performance with bottom fed accessories. The connections in both the bottom and top caps are made of brass; but the positive pin is adjustable for ease of use with different attachments. The bottom cap has a spring loaded, self adjusting negative pin to eliminate battery rattle, and remain fully functioning at all times. The bottom cap also has air-holes that match the top caps’, allowing the battery to breathe and not get too hot.

Planet of the Vapes will be releasing the Dominus Mod very soon. Stay tuned for an exclusive release date. For pricing and inquiries, please give us a call at (916) 399-5555.  

Device Review: Grenade by Emit

If you're looking for a beautiful mod that is handcrafted in America then look no further. The Grenade by Emit is a true testament of quality.

The Grenade is a heavy weight, telescoping mod which is able to fit all batteries 18350 to 18650. The body actually has cross gridded engravings mimicking those of an actual grenade. Each Grenade is laser etched with the serial number on the soft button.

This is a heavy hitting device that will blow clouds with any RBA. Not only does this device have top and bottom silver contacts, it also boasts six deep airway channels for those using both cartomizers and clearomizers.

When asked, RJ gave The Grenade 5 out of 5 stars and recommends this device to anyone looking to upgrade or add to their collection.

Joe Yupper is a familiar face at POTV and it's always a good time when he rolls through. You can usually find him lounging on one of the couches hanging out with the crew. Joe took up vaping when a buddy of his hooked him up with a twist and now his collection has grown. You name it and this guy's probably got it. Chi You, Diablo, MVP, a couple of Evics, a handful of Ego's, a decked out Bagua with Arrow, Zen clone, Cavali clone, Stainless Steel King, KTS, and the list goes on - Yup, he means business.
