Ok so I'm still waiting on my kGo from hoosier e-cig. All my 30ml & 15ml e-juice has been delivered but my kgo is sitting at the local sorting place. Which means, I have to go all weekend still smoking ciggarettes ugh! Well I'm coughing real bad & i need to get vaping asap. So I called a local head shop & they apparently have the "Eclipse". I'm thinking that it is a version of the Ego (from my google search's). What do you guys think about having a Eclipse as a back up? Is it worth it? And what type of accessories am I going to need to buy at this smoke-shop so I can get vaping this weekend....I just can't wait! Right now I have vapor room: Cinnabon, Mt. Do, Blue Cotton Candy, 555 Menthol & from myfreedom smokes i got Camel + Menthol TFA, Cotton Candy, Vanilla Ice Cream. I mean i know its probably going to cost me a premium buying it from a local water-bong store lol.....but the thought of going 2 more days smoking 2-packs a day is killing me!

Yup so i ordered my KGO, it got shipped today......can anyone suggest what part/part's i need to buy for "dripping". I'm definitely going to want to try that. Right now I've ordered abunch of 5-packs of Cartomizers. However I know I'm gonna wanna try every style there is. I figure if I order some dripping stuff now....I'll be familiar enough with the process & how to use it....to be ready 2 drip when it finally shows up.

Yea i'm definitely going to at least give it a try it just sounds like fun. Have my own little "nicotine lab" haha Right now I'm looking into finding some caffeine additives so I can cut out my morning 3 redbulls, which are as bad for me as the smokes! Here I posted this in my juice thread, maybe I'll have better luck getting it seen here... Where is a good place to get some E-caffeine additive? I found some here http://www.buy-elect...ffeine-addative And another one here with rockstar energy flavor (has a drop down to add a % of caffeine) and shows actual intake per hit http://www.vipvaporc...tar-energy.html But like most things, a google search turns up the most expensive stuff! Has anyone tried adding a caffeine mix to their morning vapes? I'm definitely interested in doing this.

I can see that you all agree you've really got to be a "creative person" & enjoy that type of thing. I'm totally with you guys on that & I appreciate you letting me know that up front. I work from home, so I've got lots of free time + I like to consider myself a creative person. Plus I'm just never happy with things the way they are sold. I'm always modifying/changing/adding to just about everything I buy/use. But I will take it slow...I won't just go out & blow a bunch of $ on stuff! Thanks so much for your expertise guys!

Excellent all good info guys! Thanks much

Wow just wait till the mega-corporations come into the game. All these businesses need to hire more employees ASAP, leaving $ on the table seems a bit ridiculous to me. This is what happens in the first 5 years of any industry. The people that are making good $ and stay small end up being forced out of the game, while the people that get greedy & expand quickly end up becoming the Apple's & Ibm's. Unless of course she's simply using the "My stuff's so awesome I gotta shut down for a week" ploy, like the resteraunts that are fully reserved-booked until August of 2013, that I always see empty seats in :-) I think south park did an epsiode on that....oh yea...CartmanLand! "there's so much to do at cartmanland..........but you can't come! ....especially you stan & kyle" :-)

Ok so I've ordered about $65 worth of juice today from 2 different distributers & I've only got about 75-100ml of juice on the way (roughly). I can see how this is going to become ridiculously expensive for someone that is going to constantly be vaping (and works at home, with it right in front of them). So how many of you make your own E-liquid, there are hundreds of videos on youtube, but I'd rather take the word of some real enthuasiast that have been doing it for a year or so ya know? I'm sure these designer juices are going to be great & nothing I could make would compare. But eventually that's going to become cost prohibitive for all-day vaping (I am guessing anyways). So how safe / easy / cheap & labor intensive is creating your own Juice? For those of you already doing it, what does 10, 15 & 30ml end up costing you when you make your own? How much do you spend per month on your self-made e-liquid (nicotine base + flavorings + tools factored in)

Yea I just assumed there was no real accurate nic amount per cigg that could be done with e-liquid. Especially considering the widely known difference in nicotine amount per analog ciggarette. I would imagine that using a vape (outside of a patch) is the closest I'll ever come to measuring my nicotine intake, so that's good for purposes of slowly reducing intake! Now when you say steep...do you mean just leave it in the bottle for 3-4 days (up to a week), or should I take off the top, then replace it loosely, or top off etc? What's the process you follow in this "steeping" method. I will definitely take your advice & allow it to reach its full potential, I want to enjoy vaping, not just get my nicotine fix. I'm the same way with romancing the ladies :-) Hahaha Jk @MIKE Can you provide a link to Mrs T's shop? I would definitely like to order from at least 3 shops to find out who's got my favourite. So I will order & try out some of her stuff, I don't mind waiting, as I already have 2 other orders incoming.

Thanks again for the suggestions blu, I just ordered two 10ml bottles, I am trying the Cinnabun stuff at 75/25 (24mg) & Mt. Do at 75/25 (24mg). I left a comment on the order form asking to try that 555 blend (menthol) for my free 15ml, & blue cotton candy for the 3ml. Not sure wether or not they will allow you to pick what you get for free...but I certainly hope so...considering I'll probably be spending thousands of dollars with them over the next few years :-) The reason I didn't order any 555 is that I already ordered some of that Camel blend from freedomsmoke via Breal's suggestion. And I got like 30ml of it! Not sure how long 30ml will last me, but from my internet search's they say 30ml = about 2 cartons...not sure how accurate that is though? *update* Just got this e-mail from the vaporroom Because of high order volume shipping is delayed for 2-3BD. Thank you vapers for your overwhelming support! We hope to be back to normal shipping times very soon. Ouch... good thing I already ordered some juice from another provider! Hopefully my kGo from Hoosier E-cig doesn't take over a week to show up too

I just made an order from myfreedomsmoke, i got the camel tobacco flavor (24mg) and some menthol flavoring to drop into it. Then I also ordered some cotton candy & vanilla ice cream to test out. This was my first order of e-juice btw. I already know that this will become an obsession so my question is...where can I find the very best in gourmet flavors? What places sell your favourites. And can you suggest a great flavor? (I love almost all foods/drinks) So i would say I have a very eclectic sense of taste...and I am always willing to spend more for the very best. Can't wait to hear all your favorites :-) Thanks!

Just saw this post I missed it before. I am curious what setup/rig are you currently using (if you have multiples, then which do you use more frequently?) As far as wether or not vaping is going to work for me. Just over the past week I have bought 10 of those 2-pack disposable & I've cut back from 2packs of analogs per day to 1/2 pack. So I am definitely sure it's going to work for me. Not only that, I am 100% sure that i will FORCE myself to use a vape, if nothing else, because if I produce any more of this brown junk in my lungs, I won't be able to breathe (I'm already having big problems). This is basically my last ditch effort to survive past my early 30's. So yea I would say I am sure it's going to work for me! If that means blowing a lot of $, so be it.....I've blown $ on far dumber hobbies in the past, haha However I really appreciate you looking out for me dude!

Ahhh ok, see now....just from this one forum post, I now know 1,000% more than i ever learned from my search engine/youtube research. Considering I'm an expert researcher (as its my job) that's really saying something IMO. Now I've got my perfect little starter system ordered up & all the stuff I need. I will definitely try the VG mix next time, as I definitely think I will love to see those "plumes" of vapor btw. Really nothing better than the combined knowledge of a community forum. So many times people will say "google it". I laugh at them! Btw i think i read somewhere about VG creating hardware failures, or perhaps "gunking up" or otherwise screwing up cartomizers/atomizers etc. Is there any truth to that? Also, I ordered $27 worth of Cartomizers, 4 of the 5-packs as she suggested above. Will I also be able to try "atomizers" with this KGO system?

Awesome thank you for the shopping list. I'm getting a 30ml thing of that camel juice, and a few 10ml things of cotton candy/vanilla ice cream etc. I left the other options at default. As i am not sure what the 15%/40% VG means etc. But i am ordering now....sure hope it doesn't take forever to get it

I work at home, so with the exception of 3x a month, when I take 10hr & 5hr road trips for dr's appointments & family visits....I am at home, with access to power. I also though have a power converter in my car I can plug in almost anything.

Ok I smoke 2-packs a day currently of Camel Silver Menthol Lights (basically camel light menthols, but with the extra menthol crush ball thing in the filter) Some days I smoke 50 ciggs, some days 30...but avg 2-packs.

Why am I on here? I'll try to keep this short. Well I grew up in Richmond, VA, exposed to ciggarettes (for free) at the age of 13....everyone worked at Phillip Morris so us kids stole the free cartons constantly. So we smoked for free for years. Well now i have almost reached middle age & it's time to put this habit to rest. Not to mention the fact I'm coughing up brown crap almost constantly. No doubt the beginnings of Chronic Bronchitis/Emphasema etc. So I've tried all the e-cigs available at gas stations and I know they are JUNK. I want FULL MASSIVE VAPOR HITS that make my lungs beg for mercy! Now I've done my basic (3 hours) of research on youtube & google and found out about all these awesome "modified" vapor systems etc. However, nowhere can I find a simple "here are the parts you need to buy, and it's simple to put together & get vaping!" It's all broken sections of information. There are no real sites with full "impartial" information, except for the actual e-commerce websites which are selling them & I prefer not to get my information from the salesmen. So I am here to ask questions/listen to you guys...in order 2 find out the best way to get vaporizing before thursday night. I have a $100 to $160 budget set aside for everything (including the juice to get started & the shipping). I might not know what I want yet...but I do know what I don't want. I don't want one of those heavily advertised v2's that look & feel exactly like a ciggarette. I want the latest/greatest....the "inside" hook up that only you big time afficianados can point me to! I appreciate any & all welcomes, help, links etc. you guys can lay on me! Please forgive all the gramatical error's my spell check doesn't work in this post box :-) Thanks! - Deja Vu the Atlantic Coast Vapor 'newbie' Beachfront residing Pirate -
