With closed and open pod system vaporizers on the up-and-up and no clear end to the trend in sight, companies have been pushing out new devices seemingly every day. While we love to have as many options as possible, it can make stepping into the average vape shop an overwhelming experience. For someone new to the vape world, choosing one among hundreds can leave you wondering whether you made the right choice.   Another universal problem among vapers is the inevitable sticky mess we're faced with whenever a pod needs to be filled. Unsheathing a pod, unplugging the stopper and refilling can...

When SMOK released the TFV4 tank in 2015, it was a pretty big deal. Until then, you basically had two coil choices at the most for any given tank: a single-coil head for regular vaping and a dual-coil head for cloud chasing.
