V2 was one of the first ones I started with, too. I really did enjoy it, the flavors are great. I really did like the Vanilla, especially. What nicotine mg did you get, and if you don't mind sharing, how much did you used to smoke? What brand?

I used to use these all the time. It takes a little less than 3 ml, and you do have to let it sit for a few minutes. If you are not using a needle to fill it, it will take a lot longer to fill. Even using a needle, it's a little tricky, but you get the hang of it. I would say they are definitely worth it if you can get used to it.

I've had a pretty bad experience with ecigexpress, as well. Just cheap quality.. I never ordered from them again.

Yes, definitely.. I would use a 306 to try out flavors, and when you find a flavor you really like, I would use boge cartomizers. I have found my all day vape and rarely swictch flavors anymore, so I pretty much just stick with my 306s unless I'm driving long distance. I had a terrible tank experience when I first got my provari. It almost put me off of vaping as well.

YES! It does get better. It gets so much better. There are many addictive chemicals in cigarettes other than nicotine--harmful, dangerous, insipid chemicals the cigarette companies don't talk about. Your body is flushing it out. But, in about a week or so, you'll notice that you can finally breathe, you'll have more energy, any coughing will cease, you'll no longer feel congested in the mornings, you'll sleep better.. and not long after that, you'll start to taste things.. even bread (if you eat bread) will begin to taste delicious. You can do this. And you are not alone. You'll find, at least at first, that you will be vaping more than you smoked. This is natural. What nicotine strength are you vaping? And how much did you smoke before?

Mega!!! So glad you're back! Miss your recipes.

Stealth vaping into a hot coffee cup in an airplane... someone here taught me that trick.. and it worked! lol!

Kitsune, I'll never forget the time you said you brought a very strong waffle like vape to work, spilled some on your clothes or something, and people were asking who had waffles. lol! I love that story.

It's been my experience that increasing the nicotine content above 18 mg diminishes the taste. Nicotine is the 'peppery' taste you get from a vape. That said, decreasing it under, say, 12 mg may also have the same affect. At least that has been my experience. I do only vape PG these days, however.

I'm not in the medical profession, but I may be able to venture a guess. My guess is that having smoked 2 packs a day, there may have been symptoms such smoking had masked... numbness, for instance. I know that when I quit smoking and switched to analogs, I began feeling sensations in my fingers and the like that I had not experienced before.. a certain extra sensitivity (perhaps due to the lack of carbon monoxide, fomaldihyde, or some similar chemical found in analogs). If you feel numbness or tingling of any kind which you had not previously noticed, I would advise that you have your fasting blood glucose tested. It may be that you are exhibiting symptoms of pre-diabetes or diabetes. (Perhaps, kitsune would have better knowledge of this). As for seeing in HD, remember, you have deprived your body of much of it's required oxygen for a long time... again, I'm just guessing, but this may be attributed to that, as well. Hope this helps.

I really love that banner. Just sayin. There is definitely some sort of fermentation thingy going on at Alien Visions.. not just the Bobas. They don't seem to 'keep'. Maybe it's the affect of the VG over time?

Excellent. Vaping is amazing. Let us know how it turns out.

Then you have a large selection. libertyflights has some very good menthol selections ( menthol smooth--PG is best).. myfreedomsmokes.com has a great menthol sampler pack... nwvapors has a really smooth Menthol Tobacco.

Alien Visions juices have basically the same tastes.. just a bit of banana for Gorilla juice, some molasses tasting graham for the Bobas. I think I've tried at least half of their flavors. They are also all VG. I would recommend another vendor and something close to all PG. Remember VG is vapor and PG is flavor. I steep Dunhill from myfreedomsmokes.com for a month and it tastes exactly like an analogue.. absolutely no difference. If flavor is what you are going for, I recommend their sampler packs.

I'm not sure what a Cig20 Menthol tastes like; what did you used to smoke?

Bobas Bounty.. Oiy.. the neverending ugh. lol! I did like Bobas for a few weeks before I was cured. Ha. Try the sampler packs from http://www.myfreedomsmokes.com . It's a good place to start. Some other vendors (like Halo) also offer group samplers. I suggest you try something close to what you smoked before for starters. I used to smoke Virginia Slims or Misty or More, so myfreedomsmokes' Slims worked very well for me to begin with. But, then I wanted more of a tobacco flavor. Someone on here (mega) turned me on to Dunhill. myfreedomsmokes has a tobacco sampler pack and a menthol sampler pack (about 6 flavors each). I would start there. It took a few months to find the right flavor. Be patient and try to enjoy the process. You Will find a wonderful and satisfying flavor(s) that work for you.

I'm not generally into fruity flavors, but Strawberry-Kiwi and Pomegranate from myfreedomsmokes are super nice, if you're into that. Other than that, I've been vaping Dunhill almost exclusively. I have about 30 flavors that I just never vape anymore. Waiting for the tastebuds to change.

lol! Don't feel bad.. quite a few of us made the same mistake.

Yes, that actually helps, A LOT. I've never heard of the Clear Bud Repetitious Tank Atomizer. I'm going to check it out. I've been experimenting with higher voltages on my Triple Coil cartos, and it's very interesting. I wouldn't dare try it on my lr306. Afraid the whole thing would just blow up on me. Ha. I love that there's always more to learn. And, it's really helpful to know that tastebuds continuously change. I appreciate the info. Cheers

Nice. I can see it now. I like elegance and simplicity.. that's my sleek black ego or kgo with a lr306 when I'm home, and a black triple coil cartomizer and matching cone when I'm out. But, I also like power.. during such times, my Provari serves me well.

I feel you. My tastebuds seem to be a bit shot of late. They said it was going to happen, I knew it would happen, but when it really did happen, I was surprised. Just wondering how often this has happened to people and how long does it last? I've been vaping strictly Dunhill this last month and a half now. I have about 25 other flavors (at least), but nothing appeals.

I have very limited atty experience.. Lately, I've been vaping lr306 and use that as a basis of comparison. I was wondering how they would compare in flavor, because the lr306 has great flavor, better than any carto, imho. It's just a pain (only sometimes) to have to continuously drip in order to get that flavor. I've also tried the regular 510 attys that come with the kgo (lr 306 wins hands down).

LOL! Ok, I've definitely at least thought of that. Was having strawberries and cream and a wonderful restaurant and thought, "Now This would be a good vape." Kudos, Mike.

Welcome to the Forum Haaris! How long have you been vaping?

AHA! So, that's what that was.
