Tell us did it improve sound quality?

Sweet, but i don't diy, someone make me whichever one is best and tell me where to send monies

The following video shows you step by step how to rebuild a Kanger ProTank head, but the same method will work for other BCC (bottom coil changeable) clearomizers as well. This information will definitely help in cases where your ProTank's draw begins to tighten up, the coil burns out, or for when you're experiencing gurgling and/or leaking. Enjoy. PS - This isn't the best tutorial I've seen about how to do this, but I plan to make my own video that will include some improved (hopefully) methods. I'll post it as soon as possible.

I love 'em all! Cartomizers, atomizers, carto tanks, RBAs, clearomizers, glassomizers...you name it and I vape it! If it gives me problems, I just figure out why and correct it! In fact, if I could figure out how to get paid for vaping, I'd do it for a living!

Let's hope Kitsune sees this thread and makes us all a very happy BB camper.

Haha! See? So many evil people here! ;-). Rixter just got the HH 357 and he's raving about it

Great review of a controversial product, Blu! It's good to know they have come down in prices, and that a few of the flavors are enjoyable. I feel the same way as CE. If it weren't for Blu's advertising, the other companies riding on their backs wouldn't have it very far. Advertising is expensive, which is why their product was. We owe a lot to that company. Shoot, I just might have to buy a kit now, to show my support.

DIY Tips and Info I know this is a lot of information, but I hope it helps those looking at trying their hand at DIY. Keep in mind, This is just my own experience. PG- Propylene Glycol : It is a colorless, nearly odorless, clear, viscous liquid with a faintly sweet taste, http://en.wikipedia....ropylene_glycol VG-Vegetable Glycerin(Glycerol): In foods and beverages, glycerol serves as a humectant, solvent and sweetener, and may help preserve foods. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol PG and/or VG are both used as the base of the E-Liquid. PG/VG can be purchased from most E-Liquid suppliers with or without Nicotine. Unflavored PG or VG with Nicotine can be purchased for the purpose of mixing your own liquids and can be purchased is many strengths. PG/VG without Nicotine is necessary for mixing your own liquids. Glycerin can also be purchased from most pharmacies-over the counter. Humco is one brand of Pharmacy Grade (USP) glycerin. It is sold as a skin protectant. It is a clear, slightly thick liquid and has a sweet taste to it. There is also a Food grade VG- Wiltons- sold at Craft stores in the baking sections. Can sometimes be found at Walmart in the craft section. The information will have to be put into a couple posts--The server doesn't like the long version....

First off the Vision Victory looks like a cross between a Kangor Pro Tank Mini and a Vivi Nova Mini. They're about the size as my 900 mAh Vision Spinners and sit flush without sticking out. They have long wicks, everything comes apart so you can change things out piecemeal. They come stock with 1.8 ohm coils. I changed it out for a 2.2 ohm. Filling it is easy, take off the mouth piece, pour in juice and you're ready to go once the wicks soak up the liquid. Vision clearomizers have always leaked just a little for me but these haven't at all. My friend who turned me on to these hasn't had one leak so far despite laying on its side quite often. The draw is very comfortable, not too airy like the Kangor Pro Tank. There's also two holes at the base that you can cover with a finger or tape or whatever, to tighten the draw more if you want -- much like the T2. I haven't found the need to do that, though. The flavor of my juice is about as close to direct dripping of any clearomizer I've tried to date, and I've tried a LOT of different clearomizers and tanks. And did I mention the clouds of vapor this thing produces? I'm vaping 12 mg nic, 50/50 with a 2.2 ohm coil at 3.8 volts on my Vision Spinner and...wow. I got mine at a local brick & mortar store but this link will show you what it looks like. As time goes on I hope it continues to perform like it does now. http://www.thebestshop.eu/shop/clearomizers/325-vision-vt-clearomizer.html

hello I introduce myself, I'm 58, I'm french and I vapote for 1 year (sorry my English is not good) I discovered this frum by chance, I hope to find interesting information with you, good day and hope you can understand my English pretty mediocre

someone just make me some Boba's. pretty please.

Has anybody told you that you rock?

Same here, Blu. I loved it when I first got it. Swore by it. But after the carto died a few weeks later, I learned to hate them. Not all carto's are created equally, but come on, I went through a stack of them trying to get one that wouldn't either flood or dry hit. I tossed it, in disgust. I must admit though, I haven't tried the various styles/brands that have been created since I tossed mine.

Ditto!

I just never cared for carto tanks, the best one i used was in my avatar, that's a blue 808 stick auto battery with a 2ml carto tank on it lol. Gotta love this new generation of sealed auto stick batts. Anyway it was alright but i much prefer the ce4's/nova type tanks over a carto tank.

Hee. You waited too long and your dark storm clouds have rolled in. You really could've kept them up north and just sent us the rain...

I bought my first carto tank yesterday too! Grabbed one of the Bella's and hopefully I can find some prepunched carts before it comes in.

I purchased my first carto tank yesrerday. Love the consistent burn, but the 1st flavor I used I ended up not liking so now everything tastes like crap.

Please do Uma, that would be fantastic.

Blu's accessibility is the only reason I discovered vaping as a viable option to stop smoking. I owe them that.

I'm going to hunt down a DIY clone of BB. AlienVisions is always closed. AlienVapor is a forger (is that the proper term?). It's time to roll up my sleeves.

i would say no. She is talking about high discharge IMR batteries. The ones in the eGos arent high output. But if you wanted to err on the side of caution you could alway wait an hour.

Cart Tank tutorial Thats a great start for cartotanks. Full of all sorts of info and a few videos.

Patricia you could get a Bella tank and be just fine. When you buy the cartomizers that go in the tank just buy prepunched ones.

So...when I got the Vision Victory clearomizers I also got talked into my very first rebuildable atomizer. I've been looking at several for some time now but was intimidated by what I saw. Yes, I've rebuilt an engine back to manufacturer's specs but this looked harder to do somehow. Hush. Well, I just rebuilt my new toy a few minutes ago and it was so simple. I'm now wondering why I waited so long. I'm putting PBusardo's review up for those who want to see his thoughts because he explains things far better than I can. My own opinion is that this thing is a great beginner's RBA. Even with my sad excuse for eyeballs I didn't need to break out the magnifying glass or even my reading glasses to thread the wires through. The vapor I get is just as good as PBusardo's video at 50 PG/50 VG, eGo Twist 4.0 volts. The only reason why I had to rewick the Eternity is because the juice I'm using gunked up the last one, but it's the juice, not the RBA. Before buying a roll of cotton wick and wire I wanted to be sure I could do this. I'll probably go buy some tomorrow at my local brick & mortar. Haven't tried the tank option yet but I probably will before too long. Maybe. Right now it's just too much fun using the atomizer side of things. Mine cost $25, and it's a great investment. It'll probably save me some money in the long run if it continues to perform the way it has.

It looks like there are two good recs here, Aquatroy. Rixter's Youde's AGA-T2 is a tank RBA while my Vision Eternity is a dripping RDA. I guess it just depends on what you want and how you want to use it. I really like direct dripping so the Eternity is perfect for me. If you don't want to drip, then the tank system would be a better alternative. Either way I think it's a win-win situation.

I don't want to hijack Tam's thread, so I'll just say that for a good first time RBA, I highly recommend the Youde's AGA-T2. It is really the easiest RBA to get started with, and comes with everything you need to get you going. As for rebuilding a KPT (and other clearos), keep your eyes on the new content here at VT because I'm in the process of starting a new thread about just how to do it.

The vendor that sent me that bad batch of atomizers finally came through and sent me 10 more. I really do not know what to call them. When I posted about the problem I posted a link to what I received. They call them CE5s. They are different then any CE5s I hear you all talk about. It is wickless at least there is no visible wick and that is what it says on the description page. I tried to find where I posted it so the link would be available for anyone who would like to see it and read it's description, but I could not. Friday night I opened the first one to see if this batch was going to work and it does. I like it a lot too. Great taste, great vapor, it uses very little juice and the most mysterious of all, I have used the same battery that I put it on Friday till now and it is going strong. I have never had a battery last me this long. I have been off work so I have been chain vaping and staying up late. It is just an eGo-T 1100mAh battery. It's not new, I've been using it for about 2 months every weekend. I have 2 of these batteries and they usually do not last long, That is why I use them on the weekend, it is more convenient for me to alternate batteries when I am home and not at work. I think I paid $20.00 for 10 of them. It almost turned out to be a bad purchase, when I got the duds but I am happy now. I'm going to try to find these within our sellers so I will get good ones the first time. Also, they are not ones you can put new coils/wicks in. Like I said, I see no wicks at all and it does not come apart for replacement of anything. Just the drip tip comes off where juice can be put in. I will let yall know how long it lasts me.

Good review Tam, I will pick one up and try it!

I don't know why I haven't tried rba's, always seems way over my head, and then you guys make it sound fun.....

So is it safe to say if your not suppose to use a battery at least an hour after charging is complete does this also apply to ego batteries?

Which bridgeless atomizers did Rixter talk you into? We all have to be careful, Rixter's very good at pushing shiny, new, wonderful things at us. I can't resist him, either. As for the $25 atomizer... I just got one of these as my very first RBA. *evil grin*

Well just thought I'd note it because I bought 2 from another site for $8 something. :-P. That's alright though I was kinda jonesing for some new stuff. 'Course I also bought 2 bridgeless 510 atomizers and a couple more drip tips. And now Rixters got me thinking about that $25 atomizer.....

I wonder if it'll ruin the gaskets in my AGA-T2, AGT, or AGI RBAs.

hah! good save Uma! all i could remember is it was alien something when i googled it and that was the first thing that popped up when i searched. probly a knock off. and of course alien visions store is closed. i'm getting kind of annoyed with how hard it is to get ahold of this juice. granted it is my favorite but it way too much of a hassle to get ahold of.

Thanks for the heads up, Bebop. I think I'm set for now with all the extra coils I've bought. The coil I have in one of the units is about done so I'm going to find out if I can just take out the coil from the bottom and replace, or if I'll lose all the juice inside with the change out. :P

Oh, and while we're on Battery safety, I'd like to add: NEVER ever leave your battery operated anything inside a hot car, or in direct sun. It's that time of year again, when things overheat, especially batteries, dogs and Grandmas.

That is the right VG ,I have vaped that stuff straight while waiting for my next order and it is not too bad by itself.

Just a quick update on the other flavors that came with the starter kit. I had previously given a brief review of the cherry and vanilla flavors. The kit also came with 2 prefilled tobacco carto's and 1 prefilled menthol carto. Tobacco: Just plain awful. This is one of those flavors i think they tried to make it taste like a cigarette, and i just can't even describe how bad it was. I tried to vape it for about a half hour or so to see if the taste maybe grew on me or was some type of acquired taste. No. It was awful the whole time, ended up throwing out both carto's. Menthol: Not bad. That's about all i can say about it. I'm not a huge menthol fan to begin with but i do like a menthol here and there. This is one i could easily vape here and there. Nothing to write home about but it wasn't bad at all. So, all i can really say is that for refills i'll probably pick up a 5 pack of the menthol, and the normal vape for these units for me will probably be the vanilla. They have other flavors available in the 5 packs but $15 is too expensive to try a flavor knowing i may end up just throwing away the other 4 if it sucks. Vanilla and menthol are where it's at for me as far as Blu ecigs go.

this is a true statement mostly. some of the people over there are nice enough but there is more of a family style orientation here.

Yeah man, for sure. I also got a vivi nova 3ml . It makes the ce4s that came with my kit look like a joke. The only thing I don't like so far is the tip. I really liked the tip on the ce4s. I don't think I can use them with it because it doesn't appear to be threaded :/

Just playing devils advocate here, but you will most likely find yourself vaping a lot more than you smoked due to its acceptance in places where smoking is not. For example, I am sitting at my desk vaping as I type this instead of waiting till I have time to go outside and smoke. Just advice, take or leave it lol. I do not think you will be happy with a 400mah VV but maybe I am thinking of myself.

Why not just get the 1300 and not have one on the charger all the time? Veteran Vaper and Sweet-Vapes both have 1300mah for the same $24.95 as the one in the link above.

Better buy two, so you can get thru a half a day...

Looks like a good eCig to me! Congrats on finding one that works for you!

Ya, the liquid can't wick fast enough to keep up. Its a common problem we had many years ago when all we had was cartridges and filler. let it rest and it should pick up again. not great for chain vaping.

that explains my daily erotic dreams... oh wait im a guy...

FlavourArt: Food Flavoring. Very wide selection of flavorings. Not as concentrated as Lorann, but has a wider variety of flavoring and less artificial coloring. Variety of Tobacco flavorings. Freedomsmokeusa and liberty flights both carry a very good selection of FlavourArt flavorings. Freedomsmokeusa :Liberty-Flights Decadent Vapors/Totally Wicked: The Decadent vapor line is produced in the UK. Decadent Vapors There are other products and suppliers out there. These are just the ones I use most often and am familiar with. Schilling and Mccormick flavorings will also work--they are just not as concentrated.
