I didnt actually get anything new but a buddy of mine asked me to pick out a kit for him and i got: 2x 1300 mAh Vision Spinners 2x Kanger EVOD tanks with replacement heads 1 Black carrying case 1 eGo Charger 1 eGo lanyard. i got it all for under $100. I think thats a great started kit!

I have learned from experience to go with Brian at the Veteran Vapor because is only sells the real deal and if you are unhappy for any reason he will work with you to correct it. I had bought a bunch of CE4s and CE5s from a "good deal site". They sent me all duds. Now that would never happen with Brian, but if it did he would send you 10 working ones. Can you tell, Brian is my hero.

Update.. Dad went from 2 packs a day down to a pack every two days. After smoking for 60 years I think that's pretty good.

He moved out of their house and filed for a restraining order the following day.

I rest my case. Actually some of it is pretty good and some not so good. A person just needs to try them all and decide what floats your boat. I would just not put all my eggs in one basket and run the risk of having nothing to vape until the mailperson delivers the next shipment.

im the same as joe. I can kill an 800mAh batt in about 3 hours and i go through 3-4ml of juice everyday.... unless im dripping... them im more in the neighborhood of say... 5-7ml lol!

Buncha lightweights lol I get at most 5 hrs. from a 650 twist and ~10 hrs. from my 1300 mah spinners. I go through 4-5 mls. of juice a day,sometimes more.

I searched, but couldn't find this topic anywhere. I apologize if it already exists. This is my everyday carry (EDC): The small case on the left goes in my pocket. It contains: 1 x 900 mAh Vision Spinner 2 x T2 1 x T3S 1 x usb ego charger 1 x small bottle of juice The large case on the right usually stays in my car, unless it's very hot outside. It contains the following: 4 x isopropyl alcohol wipes (from first aid kit) 3 - 4 x paperclips (example: pull the center posts up when the backup batteries won't charge, NOT THE Spinners, a few other uses) 1 x usb wall charger 4 x q-tip (I moisten them with the isopropyl alcohol wipes to clean battery/charge threads) 1 x bread tie 2 x T3S replacement heads 2 x T2 replacement heads 1 x Iclear 16 replacement head 1 x iclear 16 (backup to the backups) 1 x backup usb ego charger 2 x ego 650 mAh batteries (these were my original batteries, now just backups) 1 x 2600 mAh rechargable battery pack ( used for charging cell phones. I was thinking of using it as a last resort to charge my Spinners if there was no other available power source. I'm not 100% sure how safe it is to use this for that purpose. ...maybe somebody with experience will chime in) 1 x micro usb cable (used to charge battery pack) Also pictured is a T3S on a Vision Spinner 900 that I keep attached to a lanyard. Well, that's my EDC. Now that I see it written down, I feel like it's a little overkill. ....better safe than sorry.

I went to visit my dad today and he's been vaping a bit for two weeks or so. He's 72 and been a smoker for around 60 years so he's been weaning himself off of analogs. He bought a regular ego kit last year (batts, Atty, cartridge and cone). It lasted about 2 months and it wasn't working for him. He recently went to the Dr and got a clean bill of health except for the start of emphysema and high BP. So now he's all about it. This time he got an ego with CE5's kit and 100 mils of 0 nic juice. He's excited and can't wait to quit analogs. I'm so proud of him. He said he wants to be around another 20 years so he's go to do something to quit.

Not sure that animal exists. You might also want to read in reference to the "dry herb" talk.

Found this a while ago on a forum. Very easy to reference when you want your ohms as exact as possible. This shows your ohms per inch of different gauge wires.

Do you fill them up and put them in your case or do you bring them along and fill them up as you need them? I have never carried them already filled up because I thought they would leak out in my case being bounced around in my purse. That would be nice though if all you have to do is take it out of the case and put it on the battery.

Todd did a review on one. They should be out soon.

Uma, that is a cute little bag. I wanted to tell you about this great bag I found on Amazon just in case you want something bigger. It is actually a makeup bag. It is Bare Essentials and can you believe it is only $5.99 and free shipping. It holds at least 5 50ml bottles, of juice,along with other stuff in one compartment and has rings on one side that was made to put makeup brushes in but is great for holding all kinds of stuff. I liked it so much I just ordered another one because my inability to control buying all the cool things I see and hear about on here has filled that one up. There is a pink one too but it is smaller and costs a little more. it would be great for you guys too if you can get over having a makeup bag. LOL

I use a tiny coin purse with 2 zippered pockets for carrying. It's slightly padded, keeping things nice. The large main pocket holds a 10ml bottle of juice, an extra eGo battery, extra mod batteries. The smaller pocket holds a paper clip, wire, mesh, and extra mouthpiece DT. Here's a photo... it looks huge in the pic, but it's not, it's really small. I also have a few eGo cases full of stuff, and a Volt case (my fave, because it is deeper instead of wider), The iTaste fits inside the eGo case great, complete with charger, extra clearomizers, and even the manual with all the extra languages ripped out of it. These are nice cases, but I do wish they were a bit deeper. But they're great if they're going into pocket instead of purse, that's for sure.

Welcome to Vapor Talk, sounds like your on the right track

I would go with what you feel your going to enjoy more. At first the money kinda sucks but once you hit that sweet spot... it will start to become a return investment I personally like the idea of the EA over the SVD having read and watched the videos on the page.... it looks like it an insanely awesome mod right out of the box.

Happens to all of us....Had a pear/peach that was fantastic....for about a week. Mtn Dew tasted great for a month... Then went yucky...month later, tasted fine.... Mint seems to help some flavors, caramel helps others..just keep playing....

More than likely your taste buds are slowly coming back, so give the one juice a break for a bit and come back to it later on. Taste buds are a funny thing sometimes

So if they are different whats wrong with having both? You need backups, doncha???

With clearos buy name brand only, I had some no name clearos from a shop about a hour from me and they suck. Either stopped working in a matter of days or they leaked like a water main with a blow out

Saw this yesterday, I'd a thrown that thrash out way early...

Personally I have not used them but other members here use them and speak good of them.

Ah, not only does he have the patience of a saint, he also has good sense and isn't afraid to use it. That girl needs some tranquilizers. Stat!

A friend just got a Vision Victory clearomizer and sold me on it. Went to my local brick and mortar and...went a little nuts. One red and two clear ones jumped into the bag all by themselves. The Vision Victory's review will follow soon. He now stocks Vision Spinners in 900 and 1300 mAh in all colors. I've been looking at the forest green and burgundy ones but could never find them online. Um...those two (900 mAh) followed me home. Hey, I couldn't decide between the two colors. The green one had a squishy button so I took it back and got it replaced. BIG MISTAKE -- walking back into that store. Lol. One of the guys working the store started talking about a Vision Eternity RBA. Been looking at various RBA for awhile now. He explained how to recoil and showed me a few tricks and...it followed me home too. *sighs*

I bought mine from Bucky's for $28.33 shipped. It arrived really fast, too.

awesome! I almost bought that one... then i got talked out of it! lol! i will be picking one up then since it seems to get rave reviews!

well what percentages are you mixing at? i have tried to let some of them steep and it works a little bit but most of the time i have found that my flavors dont usually come through unless they are potent enough. I like the stronger flavors though.

Kanger is the brand name sheep. Its the kanger T3S here is a link for you http://www.sweet-vapes.com/shop?page=shop.product_details&flypage=vmj_color_plus.tpl&product_id=1943&category_id=69

I may have to try the T3s. I totally disdain the copy T3's I had as they leaked and were not precise fitting. Mine both stopped working at all. The T3S is name brand I guess?

I've always been a paranoid pessimist. I over pack for every situation.

I vape at around 8 to 10 watts so I too go through juice and batts at an alarming rate

2x 30ml bottles Druid's breath 12mg 70/30 from Greenman and 2 x smaller travel kits! Smaller 650mah batteries and clearo's with chargers and case. I know why they sent two chargers now. One of them didnt work! Nice padded case tho. I can fit my iTastevv/vw in it also!

Totally makes sense. That is why I love the T3S even with the occasional small leaks because I feel like I get all the flavor, if not more, than the T2s produce and the cooler vape a bottom coil unit provides without the metallic taste I get in the KPT. To me, the T3S is about the same unit as the KPT just not made of glass and metal. All the "working parts" are in the same place and work in exactly the same way. The first 1/8th to 1/4th of a tank on a top coil unit may have a tiny amount more flavor but not appreciable in my experience.

I ordered mine from Veteran Vaper. I generally default to 2.2 on all my stuff because they are good at both lower and slightly higher voltage.

Oooh, good to hear... My first spinner just shipped this morning!

I got a boge 510 carto, cheap, hugh flavor, excellent taste. It's easy to change flavors with a carto but they are temperamental. easy to flood but almost fool proof delivery device, I like the ease of testing a flavor but some linger for a good while.got to have q tips with you if you have a carto. Back to the original post, did you use the condom method to fill it? The coil sits on the bottom near the threads and if that filler material is dry it would burn it.

That may be an advantage the Spinner has. I can tell when my standard Ego Batteries are getting close to dying and they drop off in performance some but the Spinner always maintains until the light blinks.

I second tam, I know when my twist is going near dead. Vapor production gets weaker and weaker once it nears quarter charge.

Personally I'm not fond of the dct, they can be messy to fill, lose juice when the carto goes bad because you have to remove it completely from the tank along with all juice. The vivi nova or kanger protank is less hassle, less messy, easier to maintain. As far as the battery I use a ego c twist also variable voltage. Can't really give advice on the battery you are asking about because I know nothing about it.

Before you started vaping did you put the battery on a charger and let it fully charge? If you did then I'd say get in contact with the vendor and get a new one. If not, put it on the charger and make sure it's topped up. Even though they come partially charged it might not have enough oomph to work at its best. Just a thought.

That's why I didn't bring it up in my original reviews because I am in the vast minority, but not alone in my dislike for the KPT. I do believe the T2 and T3S deliver better flavor than the Vivi Nova for a better value overall. I have one Mini Nova and one Vivi Nova and I do not really use them anymore either. I think the flavor comes through the T2 and T3S much better. Again, everything is subjective when it comes to "taste" but when it comes to other intangibles like ease of use, maintenance, cost of ownership reviewing can be valuable tools. Just typing this for myself made me realize I will probably use both at times without switching solely to one of the other. Its good to have two choices like that that are so close together. Strawberry Fields, Traditional Tobacco, and Juicy Peach have never tasted as good to me in anything I have used as the T3S but not a huge difference with my minty flavors.

Well, if you don't have any takers I sure would love to have it. I love mine, even better then my Mini Nova and I thought that was impossible. I have never tried the T2s and the T3s that you are talking about. But that is some great information.

Hi, Synther. My double-unit kit came with a sample pack of favors. There are eight, 3.7ml bottles, and the favors are as follows: Cool Mint, Tropical Breeze, Coffee & Cream, Mandarin Mango, Cherry Slush, Berry Pomegrante, Vanilla Cupcake and USA Tobacco. I smoked my last cigarette, a little earlier in the day, and then went about filling my eGo Twist. I powered it on, gave it one pull, and powered it back down. I just wanted to see that it WAS a functioning unit. I have to say that I was quite impressed. The flavor was a bit different from what I have been used to, from analogs, but that was to be expected. I got a good hit, but there was an aftertaste left in my mouth, which wasn't too bad, but something else that I will have to get used to. The flavor that I tried was the USA Tobacco one, due to thinking that it would be the closest to what I had already been inhaling. I had also bought a larger bottle of the USA Tobacco flavor, but will eventually get around to trying all of the flavors out. However, no complaints. I know that change requires transitioning, and that is a passage which can (in THIS situation) more easily be traveled when focus is kept on the extreme benefits to be realized.

To me, the KPT is the worst ranked of all the delivery devices I have tried based on taste alone. I cant review it because of how much I didn't like it, and since most everyone here loves them I am marking it up to personal taste although the person that sent it to me agrees it makes the juice taste like liquid metal. I am most likely in the vast minority and this is why I didn't mention it in this review. I was so excited when it came in the mail, and was a gift from another member and friend here. When I first loaded it with liquid I thought maybe it was just the "new" taste. Then I changed coils and alcohol-Vodka washed it and put in a new coil and the same taste was there at the same level. Its a metallic taste, probably due to the metal mouthpiece, but am going to try and trade my KPT and 10 coils for something of equal value at some point and if I cant most likely I will give it away. I offered it back to the person that gave it to me but they also feel like it gives liquid a, and I quote, "vile" metallic taste and didn't want it back. It has been sitting in a shot glass on my bar for a couple weeks now. It works, looks great, doesn't leak, and is easy to use but if you cannot stand the way it makes things taste its not really fair to review it imo.

Actually, atomizers predate cartomizers by quite some time, but they did have a lot to do with the birth of cartomizers. The very first e cigs were fed by poly-filled cartridges that you filled with e-liquid and slid into the end of an atomizer. The saturated poly-fill in the cartridge pressed against a stainless steel "bridge" above the atomizer's coil to transfer the juice into the atty's internal wick & coil. It didn't take long before some more adventurous early vapers tried dripping juice straight onto the atomizer's coil (bypassing the use of the cartridge) and found it to be quite tasty. Later, the atomizer & cartridge were combined into one unit for convenience and the cartomizer was born, but due to the excellent flavor it provides, the "dripping" trend remains alive (and very popular) to this very day. Sorry...I got off topic.

Patrica dear, let me know if those juices end up being sweet and usable. I usually want candy sweet but never get anywhere near it.

Excellent info, Uma.
