Uwell Caliburn G vs Vaporesso XROS wow, what a difference
I've talked to alot of friends who are on the fence between these 2 pod systems. Well being the genius that I am, I allowed myself to run out of Caliburn G coils and was stuck waiting for delivery so I headed to my local vape shop they had the XROS in stock so I picked one up and a couple of pods to hold me over.
Thank you everyone for the support!

I'm not thrilled by that research either, but if you have concerns, best to talk to your doc about it. You could print out the study for him to read and give an opinion on its methodology, too, I guess.
