They make a lot of tube Mechanical mods, and RDA;s over their which is usually high cost to us in the US.
yeah the philippines a couple of years ago made some of the best gear in vaping...actually the whole cloud bro fad was born in the phillipines, they were the ones who started cloud chasing...JD tech and the Stingray were one of the most popular mods there was...one of my personal favorite atties is the Pulse G was made in the phillipines and I consider it in the top 3 of the best genisis atomizers ever built.The Phillipines contributions to vape gear is on the same levels as those of say Greece.This was particularly true in the early stages of the vaping industry..I think chinese cloning had more of a disasterous effect on the Pinoy modders than anywhere else, and the Phillipine goverment started targeting vaping which also contributied to vapings development there...The phillipines grows tobacco and I'm sure the tobacco growers there put pressure on the goverment to protect their industry.

I've seen a bunch of their stuff on sites here in the UAE which has a very large Filipino population. It's all mech mods and tubes with lots of nice looking rdas. It does look like top quality stuff, but as Smokie pointed out it's expensive stuff. The problem I see is getting feedback from users, I can't find much at all, so I'm hesitant to buy anything.

I second that.
I have a small collection of pinoy gear. it isn't cheap, but it's also worth the price. @r055co

So, all the stuff you have is quality materials and workmanship? From what I've been able to see, it seems as it's almost all low volume, hand-made gear. That justifies the price especially if it comes with an expectation of lasting longer than most of the vaping gear on the market.
I've got a number of Pinoy Gear, I'm a big fan of it. as @CashNVape said it's not cheap but worth it. There are a few that don't live up to the hype but most do. I'm a huge fan of MCV, the machining and materials are exquisite along with outstanding performance. 2JNT is also on the top, they make pure Silver Mods and RDA, they really kick ass but are expensive. Then there is Gatub Crafts, his work is artistry. There are others like Silverwolf Customs and El Diablo which most of the time are good to great but they have also had some misses.
Here's where I get most of my Pinoy gear

When I can't get it there I'll hit
For MCV if I can't get it from Pete at Dragons Den

Last resort is The Serial Vapist, excellent site with outstanding selection with fair prices. The downside is they're in the PI so they can only ship DHL and it's very expensive. I couldn't find my Anubis anywhere so I got it for around $100 but shipping was $65 with DHL.

Only time I've been really disappointed was when I bought a Silverwolf Customs Marley Box and it turned out to be a Clone which I promptly returned.
Like anything though you just have to do your homework, I've yet to be disappointed. I stay current with Vaping Bogan and Matty Ice w/ Convicted Vapes, they do a lot of reviews of Pinoy gear and they have yet to lead me astray. Actually over 90% of the time they've been dead on for me.
Wow, thanks for the info. I was just looking at the Dragon's Den and they have the Nuke RDA for $130. I can get it for $80 in Dubai. I contacted the owner and he assured me it's original, but how would one verify that? I have bought a few things from this guy and it's all be legit. There is a huge Pinoy population here but how would that warrant that price. I have to say that from the pictures on the UAE site, it looks appealing.
That's great info. I'll look them up and see what I can find. Thanks a million.
If you're in Dubai then check out The Serial Vapist, shipping shouldn't be that bad than what it is to the States.
Check out the Fuel V2, it's probably my favorite RDA

I'll do that, thanks.

I have a white delrin squonker coming in from Ground Kloud Innovation. Will post pic's and let you know how it is. There are a lot of folks in the FB group that I'm a member of that love the mod.
Here's the latest one I've been starting to drool over. I've been debating on pulling the trigger on it, it's either this one or another Custom Classics squonker ............... Oh I'm so torn!

I'd like to see it. Do they make many squonker's? I don't think I've seen any on the sites I visited.
I'm so torn, got to decide which one to choose.
I've really been eye balling the squonker but kinda leaning towards the tube, IT'S BEAUTIFUL!

Here is the Dos Equis by JDTech - will vouch for it's performance if you can find one
Vicious Ant makes a gorgeous squonker - no opinion how functional it is (as in I don't have one) but insanely beautiful Regulated Mods
Wow, it's gorgeous. I just gotta put the picture up here. And it has one of these

Just got my laugh for the day, notice Vicious Ant's free shipping threshold at the very top, lol

Looking for Christmas present to myself, wish I could afford all three but damn!

It's a work of art. I vote for that one.
They should throw in a bottle of juice while they're at it.
