Blu - sorry I got your first name wrong, lol - wrong J name (I think?) and too late to fix my boo-boos! I have a swiss cheese brain - so I'll stick to Blu whatever name is used - you rock!

Can I take a sec here to gush about Blu (Jeff) and his helpfulness? If there's a Super Great Guy award - he deserves it. Because of him, I went the Leo way and I haven't even looked at another setup other than adding in my Leas. He's always willing, in some way, to help those who need it and that, on its own, deserves some major kudos Thanks Jeff for all you've done for us Just to add: Leos/Leas are workhorses that look NICE. The Leo cartos & clearos (if you try one) are fantabulous. Leo/Lea is one of the lesser known, but best working lines out there - and they're amazingly inexpensive and if you stick with it, you'll find you can't beat the prices on accessories. I think Leo owes Blu some ad money, lol! I'm now converting others to Leos and Leas thanks to him!

I have a Leo/Lea charger to spare as well - and if it's Leo, I have a couple of spare cartos. I also have some extra Lea bits laying around, but that's a 510 threading so I think you'd be set there. Let me know if I can help at all. Blu helped me and I'd like to know if I can help. I also have a Leo to 510 adapter if that would help out? Let me know! Oops - just saw that Blu has the 510 adapter as well. Blu - if you want another one in the future to replace it, lmk! I'd be glad to send one to you!

If you're a dripper, like many people are (myself included) you can get tired of having to add a few drops every few mins as you vape. If you're not a cartomizer fan, you have to deal with cartos or tanks. Any one of those could get old/frustrating/not worth the effort - especially if your body is no longer craving nicotine.

I'll have to check it out...who knows, maybe I'll get lucky with the one on its way

I've got a question for y'all. I'm looking for a good pear. The first one I tried tasted like soap. I've got one coming from AltCig that has good reviews (but so did the first one and steeping didn't help it). I really want that kind of pear feeling in my mouth - like a pear jelly belly! Kinda like a good black licorice where the person who created the juice remembered to get the molasses taste as one of the notes that lingers and makes the perfect mouth feel afterwards. Any pear lovers out there with ideas?

Ick - pt in the rain - not fun at all! That sounds, erm, as interesting as my metholated cherry limeade, lol! Now *that* sounds heavenly! But, but, but you're my Leo hero! I'd never have fallen in love with them and found PV joy (vs joye...ugh) I understand it though, if you no longer need the nic, and everything becomes more effort than it's worth, time to move on. I hope you at least still come around the forums if you decide to quit the ecigs - you're funny and it would at least give you a place to blow off steam if you need the break

I understand exactly what you mean - you taste the waffle not just the topping(s)

Oooh diy waffle. Gotta have that buttery syrupy thing going for it, lol! Or a good banana pudding - the thought of that makes my taste buds stand at attention, lol!

BWB Malty Toffee (dang ordering limits!) and I'm about to try their waffle - a friend of mine said that the waffle was the one currently "blowing her skirt up" lol! Other than that, absinthe or licorice, blueberry, dang there are so many! Any good coffee or caramel flavor. I like savory flavors Oh yeah - I do talk a mile a minute IRL, ROFL!!! Makes it easier here too, when you can type 85 wpm! If it was my phone - it's qwerty but it slows me down

Totally agree there - but it's definitely not in the cotton candy at least - it's one of those tastes that once you know it, you can taste it anytime you come across it - ie, Good Prophets caramel has EM in it, subtle but makes it nom nom, lol! So glad you got the Boba's! I knew that good karma would follow you! I've just ordered my 2nd Lea thanks to you, lol! My ex-husband was so happy I quit that he let me spend money on a credit card that I have left over from before the divorce (in 2005) that he pays for - not looking that gift horse in the mouth! I'm also going to be trying the 800 tank system, but I really want to find an actual *tank* to put on it. Someone else I know tried and said I'll probably have to get a 510 extension to get it to work - so I'm game to try that! As for the kurig - man I love those things! I had a senseo when I lived in VA and loved - it somehow (along with all but 1 kitchen appliance) got left behind when I moved because I didn't get them in boxes fast enough for my brother and cousin who were driving the moving truck. Keurigs are *so* much cooler though! I used to play Airsoft and the manager had one and only I was allowed to use it, lol! Ugh, I used to do night audit for a hotel - I feel ya! I also used to work in a computer lab for the same hotel's main office from midnight fri to noon sat, midnight sat to noon sun, midnight sun to 6am mon, and finally mon midnight to tues 6 am. I pulled that nightmare off while taking classes at OSU (Ohio) and there were days I just wanted it to ennnnd - super long overnight shifts will either make you insane, or very happy if you like squeezing in the extra hours to get another day off! I think I love you for that nugget of knowledge! nom nom nom!!! That was probably the best surgery I *ever* had. Even the surgical pain and recovery is less painful than the gallbladder itself! They told me I had a "marble sack" in mine, complete with a giant shooter. I wanted to see them, but the hospital I was at didn't allow it Hope your wife is doing well Jeff! Brian - my fiance had his out about 10 months ago and he had the kind with sludge in it - that may be what you have. Lots of people have the gunk instead of stones and it's not visible on the ultrasounds and stuff - good luck! I'm about to try my first LR306 - I've seen so many raves about them that I grabbed one and a drip tip while ordering from Backwoods Brew a couple days ago just to see how I like it! Sorry this all went so long, but I guess it's better than 10 separate messages! Blu - I really do still thank you for the path you got me on with the Leos! I still use the one from you every day! I am getting a Leo to 510 adapter, but it's more for emergency back-up in case something else fails horribly. The Leas with the Leo adapter on them aren't bad - but there's a bit of vape leakage at the threading point so I like using the Leo better for the cartos. The LR cartos are nice too - I killed one though, by putting non-steeped caramel coffee flavor in one - oops? Tasted like watered down burnt coffee - like someone rinsed out the burnt stuff and turned it into a flavor *gack*

Just an FYI, James doesn't use ethyl malto for his cotton candy. I ordered some and got it last week and it didn't taste like EM so I emailed him. He said he's thought about using EM, but for now there is *no* ethyl malto in the MtBaker Vapor Cotton Candy. The flavor's still not bad, and he himself said to let it steep and that the best of the flavor is on the exhale. I'll use it as a sweetener for things, but I'm still going to buy some EM somewhere as I want that spun/burnt sugary taste James was really fast to reply to me and was super nice - just wanted to throw that tidbit in! He also makes a helluva black licorice if anyone else loves it like I do

OK - PIF question. The friend I was going to send my pink TW titan 510 set to has already got a friend who vapes. It was recommended to her that she starts out with a V2 - is that a good idea or should she start with something else - ie what I want to send her so she figures if she even *likes* vaping (she hasn't tried her friend's, I think it's an online friend) or tell her to find a quality, fairly priced V2 and go for it?

oops - I was sort of writing that while you were laying out the new rules - sowwy!

I feel weird asking this here, but I've had some, erm, not so good interactions in another thread so I'm going to ask here. Is ECF down? I bounce back and forth between the two while I'm online and I can't seem to get it to load - anyone know?

Awwww - all alone wif no one to chats wif I'd have visited but the last couple days my timing has been bad for finding people in here who are alive! If I had the parts you needed I'd gladly send them to you - but I'm pretty sure since mine are original 510 things and not ego, etc that I don't have what you want, lol! I think I'm finally going to go to bed now - it's after 4:30 am and I have to get up sometime in the next 10 hours!

I respectfully disagree - have you missed the PIF discussions blu and I have been having - not to mention his PIF to me which is allowing me to PIF 2 other people? It's also shown another new member that there are inexpensive kits to try. Just knowing info like that is paying it forward because with him telling me that - another person already had learned of the kit and is very interested. I think that discussing some trades is fine - because some allow people to pass along equipment they no longer use if they can trade something they no longer need allowing them to pass their old/other equipment to someone else. Many trades/swaps lead to PIF's - they just aren't always mentioned later by the people involved. Just my 2 cents daisy

No worries! It's Blu's thread and in the "rules" that were set up - swapping was one of them. So you're doing nothing wrong, and I guess Deadpool didn't read the rules? Welcome to VT and one of the nicest threads on the board - really awesome people here, even when it's not PIF or swap talk daisy

There has been plenty of PIF talk in here even with people looking to swap. I personally don't mind, it's not a huge thread and people are (mostly) either chatting, which I don't see as an issue, PIF'ing, or asking if people would trade - again, not so much an issue. I, personally, have PIF'd in here and been the recipient of a Leo, which is allowing me to pass things along to other people, as well as finding new things I can use to help others because I don't have much, but want to help family or friends in need. Here, everyone already has or has moved past the equipment I have to PIF with, so I like getting ideas on what I can suggest to people, etc. I guess what I'm saying is although people have looked for trades a few times (which is ok'd in the rules), and we've gone OT a couple times, the thread is OK PS - for anyone who is curious - go read the rules, Post #3

I think that would be perfect! At least it's a known type and bits and parts are available everywhere for the model (well, at least a few of the big ones). I think he'd be able to use it quite easily and if he needs help ordering parts, I can help there as well. I'll definitely tell him about it after he tries either my mistic or my joye510. Thanks so much! daisy

Oh poodle poo! I just typed out this great long post, lol - so here are the highlights: 1. Love love love the Leo and that ALL of them are passthrough - amazing! 2. Also love that the batts are amazing and only like $2 more than 510 batts! 3. Can't wait to try the attie & carts 4. Getting 3 LR cartos from E-Cig-Arsenal for 3.75 each 5. I love E-Cig-Arsenal because the lady who runs the shop is super nice and sent me a free carto with my charger! About the brother: I'm going to have him try the mistic - I was originally going to send that off to the friend in Cali, but I should send her my pink joye510 stuff. If he likes the mistic, I'm going to show him where to get the stuff that fits it (although a little awkwardly) so he can get carts or cartos and not be stuck buying their stuff. I think my brother would die if he had to go out in public with the 510, but I'll have him try that too. I also considered getting him a Q kit - some people say they're awesome to start with cause they're $10 or under. I'm highly open to suggestions if that isn't the one - we don't have much (Colin - cause I'm tired of typing other half, lol) and I live on $700/month but we'll find a way to get him set up because he deserves it and he definitely doesn't have the extra money around either - but we want to help him - if that makes sense? We're lucky to have amazing parents who wanted us to move closer to home so they got us each small houses and they pay the utilities for us until I finally get disablilty (OT but explains some of our situation without going on and on, lol!) I wish he WOULD join the forum, but he's got severe dyslexia - 2nd grade reading/writing level - *170* or higher IQ - (I remember when he was tested.) and I think he'd get frustrated here trying to keep up or even short messages - but I'll ask him. He gets embarrassed because he writes the way he does and people think he's just to lazy to spell things or use proper grammar. I don't know how he functions sometimes - that amazing brain trapped in there Gonna buzz for now - spend some quality time with Colin and also because our internet is dropping in and out because of some weather going on! I may be back later, not sure Toodles for now - and thanks for all the help and advice blu daisy

Get this - I may be paying it forward to my BROTHER! I had no clue he had any interest in e-cigs. He thinks they're all too expensive and I told him next time he comes over to try my joye510 and see what he thinks. I think if I hand him the Leo to try he may be scared, lol!

Good to know about the cotton candy, i know it's important to have that spun sugar taste which is why i'm going to try some. I'm going withcar Mt. B because it is inexpensive and i may be able to tweak some flavors a little bit if they need a nudge. It'll also be the second black licorice to try, from him - first was top vapor, we'll see how it compares. I'm also doing a one bottle order here and getting a couple of LR cartos super cheap for the Leo. I managed to scrimp it back to $65 which is about 15 less than when we smoked...progress!

Hrm, I tried to put in "VAPORTALK" in the promo code box and it's telling me that the coupon is invalid - am I doing something wrong? Thanks! daisy

OMG that sounds good. Is Em the ethyl malt that you mentioned before? I've decided that I'm going to get just straight premade juices this month - then start really going mad scientist as my collection of flavor extracts gets larger. Right now i only have vanilla, almond, lemon, orange, banana, coconut and anise (i actually add extra anise to my black licorice depending on how i'm vaping it). Until i get more extracts i don't want to get overly excited...ok, it's too late...about making my own recipes i figure i can pick up a few extracts with my juice orders (i think i settled on MtBaker and TVR juices for this month. If i can figure out a way to sneak it in somehow, i'm gonna order a 60 ml (67 actually) of Malty Toffee for only 32 bucks! i think i can do it
