Vivid Vapes started as a conversation among my family Thanksgiving of 2014 on our trip up to visit my brother and his family in New Jersey.

As I scanned the dinner table and noticed 3/4 of my family all had a vaporizer of some sort sitting next to their plate, I laughed a little to myself. My Mother asked me what I thought was funny, so I told her that if we were all still smoking a pack or more a day like we had been for every Thanksgiving up until that point we would all be outside freezing our asses off on the front porch as we slowly kill ourselves, she smiled and said, see aren't you happy I got that you mod now? My brother Brad chimed in and said, here.. give mine a try, as I went from my gas station vape pen to his Nemesis tube mod with a Tobh Atty RDA and coughed my ass off, his reply was, "Don't worry bro, ill teach you a thing or two about a thing or two". we sat down after dinner and I did my first build.. Looked like shit, but it worked. he said not bad, with a little youtube and some practice you might even own your own shop one day and chuckled. It was that moment that started it all. 

April, 15th 2015 Vivid was born after a lot of research and sleepless nights, after a few months of building searching for the right location we had found it. I felt that the people of Radford, VA and surrounding areas deserve to have a place they could depend on to provide them with a better alternative to tobacco products. Cigarettes kill hundreds of thousands of people every year in the United States and take years off your life, but it can be difficult to stop smoking them. If you want to finally quit smoking, I can easily provide you with a better smoking alternative at Vivid Vapes.

​

I keep a decent variety of starter kits, E-liquid refills, and several types of mod kits. Whether you are unfamiliar with vaporizers or have been using them for years, everyone is welcome at my shop. I just want to help as many people as possible make the switch to vaporizers, as they allow you to continue to enjoy smoking without exposing your body to harmful chemicals like tar and arsenic, plus it keeps you much warmer come Thanksgiving time. ;)

 

My company slogan is “Stay Vivid, The Healthier Alternative” because I really do believe that vaporizers are a far better alternative to tobacco cigarettes in my opinion and the research I have found.

My store is open every day of the week, Monday through Saturday from 12:00ish p.m. to 9:00ish p.m., and Sunday from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., and I will always be happy to answer any questions you might have about vaporizers day or night via our facebook page or come speak with me at Vivid Vapes if you want to make the switch to vaporizers!
