  1. In a few days it will be my fourth year without a cigarette. So I want to take this time to thank some people here at VT that helped me get started and gave me support and info in the beginning. First of course is Chris (the Godfather) for starting this forum with all these great people. If I hadn't found this place I don't know if I would have stuck to it. And of course there's a bunch of the veteran Vapor Talkers that gave me help, info and support along the way, like Ofortuna, Skruff, Mark, jeffb, Brian, Bird dog, Kitsune (the resident mixologist) just to mention a few. Thanks to all of you for helping me in this journey. I really don't believe I would have stuck with it if not for your help and encouragement. All those nights on the chat really made a difference, and I could never have done it without you. My love to you all for sticking with me and giving me your support and information. Thank You ever so much. Love you all!!!
  2. Let me be one of many to wish you welcome to Vapor Talk. You've come to a great place, Lots of friendly helpful people ready to answer any questions you may have. Good luck and happy vaping.
  3. Having used both I would have to go with the Iclear first and vivi second. I feel the iclear just wicks better, but my real money is on my new Pro Tank. Bottom coil and glass tank just makes for a better vape.
  4. why not just fill some cartos when you're just sitting around and put the little rubber condoms back on and you're good to go. Also, you can refill your cartos as long as you keep the flavors some what close. I wouldn't suggest starting off with say a peach flavor and then try to add a coffee or something. may take it a while till you can taste the change.
  5. Welcome and congrats on giving up the analogs. You've found a great place to hang out, lots of great people ready to help and answer and questions you may have. Good luck and happy vaping.
  6. First..Welcome to VT. I think once you get into vaping with a VV type device you'll never go back to stick batteries again. The kit looks nice and seems to be a good deal. If you're not a heavy vaper then the 650mah batteries should be good enough for now. But if you're a heavy vaper then go for the bigger batts. My other suggestion would be to get an evod tank or the pro tank when you get the chance. The bottom coils really make it better and you can use all the juice in the tank before you need to refill without having to do the tilt thing to get juice to your coil. The evod doesn't hold as much liquid as the vivi nova. but I find the flavor to be better and it wicks a lot better also. As one of the veteran vapers here says " back-ups back-ups back-ups". You can never have enough just to be safe, and extra tanks make it easier to have different flavors ready to change out when one flavor starts to get dull. As for the coffee e-liquid, the store here has a flavor called "Choco Java" that's a nice blend of chocolate and coffee. Not heavy on the chocolate and a smooth taste. Also try PinkSpot Vapors. They have a couple of nice coffee flavors as well. But remember that taste is suggestive. What one person thinks is great, you may think tastes like poop. So check around and try a few different places until you find the one that's right for you. Good luck and happy vaping.
  7. Well, you're going to get your best flavor with direct dripping, but I've been using the evod tank and the Pro tank mostly. I've kinda gotten away from dripping. Mostly because dripping and driving don't mix. It's just the ease of tanks more than anything, but they do tend to mute the flavor a little. Good luck and happy vaping.
  8. I recently ordered some of my old favorites from VT. Exotic,Mentha,Choco Java,Sweet Dawn and Macchiato. I haven't had any of these in a while and the experience was wonderful. It's kinda like coming home to Mom's home made pie. It brought back many pleasant memories from past VT days and the flavors were just as great as the first time I tried them. These were some of my first juices and I'm glad I came back for more. If you haven't tried any of the VT e-liquids I would suggest you do so. Exotic is a great tobacco (555) type of flavor and has a nice nutty taste. Mentha is one of the boldest menthol flavors I've tried. It will knock your socks off. Choco Java is just that. A nice mellow coffee and chocolate flavor. Not heavy but just a nice blend. Sweet Dawn...A really nice pear flavor. Tastes kinda like a pear "jellybelly". Macchiato is a nice creamy caramel coffee flavor. A very good relaxing type of vape. Well, that's my walk down memory lane. Do yourself a favor and give some of Vapor Talk's e-liquids a try. You might just find something new that really hits the spot for you. Thanks Chris!!!
  9. God I hope not!!!` I'm a big fan of PinkSpot vapors, and Ahlusion. Roar vapors has a big following as does Elliquidplanet and Mr E-liquid. But my first love was always Vapor Talk "Exotic"
  10. If the flavoring is the only thing that has you going to this site, look around first. There are other vendors and one of them may have the one you're looking for. You might want to try Vapor Renu, or the The perfumers apprentice. Don't settle without looking around first. Besides, you might just find one that really fits your bill. Also there are many good places to get nic from.
  11. We use to have a great video chat here. As many as 9 people could be on cam at once, and there was still a txt chat to go with it. It was "THE" place to be on Fri and Sat nights. Joe2003 can vouch for that. Not exactly sure what cause it to disband. We just sorta dropped out of sight. People move on and start doing other things, lives change etc. I do miss it tho...made a lot of good friends here and I'm sorry it came to an end. Would be nice to try and get things back together again.
  12. Veteran Vaper sells VT "Mentha" it's a real kick-a** menthol flavor. One of my favorites. Also you can try PinkSpots Snowman's Kiss, it's a nice cool menthol flavor.
  13. Welcome to the wonderful world of vaping. I would also suggest that you try bumping up your nic level a little for a while. I started out with 48mg, waaay to much. Then 36, still a little too much, then 24mg and found it to be a good level for a while. Now after 3 yrs I'm down to 18 and it's a nice middle of the road level. The Veteran Vaper here on the forum sells VT liquid and it's a really good e-liquid. The "Exotic" is a really good tobacco (555) flavor. Also, try and get your liquid in a 50/50 or a 70/30 pg/vg mix. It makes the vapor heavier and that will help just a little bit. As you know, there is a crap ton of vendors out there. Unfortunately taste is very subjective, so what I may like you may think is really sh***y. I think as long as you stay with some of the bigger juice vendors like VT, Rawr, Clouds of Vapor, PinkSpot, and some of the others listed on the forum, you should do fine. I would also suggest Ahlusion, but I warn you that their flavors a little subtle. Well that's all I can tell you right now, like that's not enough. Good luck and happy vaping
  14. It's all in how you vape. I'm a heavy vaper. I'm usually vaping from the time I get up till I go to bed. So some days it's 6 or 7 mls a day, maybe more. " Your mileage may vary" My biggest suggestion would be to make sure that you always have enough stored up just in case..nothing worse than running out of juice, except maybe running out of batteries. As one of our long timers here always says "back-ups back-ups back-ups!!! Good luck and happy vaping!
  15. Welcome to Vapor Talk. You've come to a great place. Wonderful people just full of information and eager to help. Congrats on your switch from analogs. I and we here think you've made a great choice both for yourself and for others. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. There's always some one willing and able to answer or send you to someone who can. So good luck and happy vaping!
  16. As it's been said so many times before "taste is suggestive"..what one person just loves another may think it tastes like ***. The problem comes from the fact that you're not burning leaves and paper (and 4000 chemicals). So nothing is going to taste exactly like an analog. What you need to do is try several "tobacco" flavors until you find the one that's right for you. I've found several tobacco flavors that I like from different vendors. Each is a little different from the next. Some may have a hint of coffee, or caramel,and flue cure. I DIY a honey tobacco that I think tastes great, but it smells awful to others ( bad feet or burning burlap) VT has a great "Exotic" tobacco that I started out with and is still one of the best I've ever tasted. As far as vendors go I can suggest Ahlusion, PinkSpot Vapors, Rawr, Gourmet Vapor, and of course Veteran Vapor here on the forum who is carrying the Vapor Talk juice. There are hundreds more and most vendors of pv's also carry a line of juices. So do some looking around and taste tests and you'll find something I think you'll like. So good luck and happy vaping! p.s. don't forget to try other fruit and dessert flavors also.
  17. Welcome to VT. You've found a great place to learn and wonderful helpful people to answer your questions. Congrats on making the switch to vaping. Once you get into the experience you will enjoy it. I was a heavy smoker and my vaping has been even more. I use it more than I ever did analogs, but it's so much more healthy and enjoyable. Good luck and happy vaping
  18. Okay..so I'm late to the party as usual. Yes I hear it all the time. And it only gets worse the longer you keep vaping. Dammit I have to agree with Jeffb and Brian also...just enjoy your vape, and know that it's better than the analogs.
  19. Congratulations on making the switch to vaping. But I should warn you that it's a very consuming habit (I mean hobby..lol). And the health benefits will be even better. E-Smokeytreats was one of the first vendors I used when I first starting vaping. They were always a great company to deal with and Phil was more than helpful. I use to order from them when I was out on the road and I had very good dealings with them. Back then I was using their 801 kits and if something went wrong they helped correct it as quickly as possible. Even sending free replacement batteries. I'm sure you will enjoy what you've gotten and before long will be looking into even bigger and better things. Also, don't forget to look into other vendors for great e-licquids and pv's. There are tons of them out there and VT has a good selection of quality vendors listed on the site. Good luck and happy vaping!
  20. It's been a while since I was last here, but I wanted to stop bye and thank all my old friends here at Vapor Talk. I'm coming up on my third year analog free and I wouldn't have made it this far without a lot of help and support from the folks here. Chris, this is my forum home. I know I haven't been around as much as I use to be, but I haven't forgotten where my friends are. Without this place in the beginning I don't believe I would have lasted this long. For this I give you a big thank you! This forum and the support you give people is a big asset. "O" ( iamofortuna), Skruff (skruff77), your love, support, and friendship has meant the world to me. All those nights at first on the chat were really a lot of fun, and I got a lot of information at the same time. Love you guys. Mark, you've been a great friend and a big help in my getting where I am today in vaping. Having someone close to go to is a big help when someone is just getting started. I thank you so much. Jeffb, BD, Brian, Kitsune, Uma, Joe2003, and so many others, thank you for being there when I needed answers or just someone to talk with. The friendship you all have shown me is greatly appreciated. All in all this place is the best place for any one who is just getting started with this vaping thing to be at. The help and support you all give is something you all should be very proud of. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Much love to you all!!!! Snubber
  21. Happy belated Birthday Chris.....sorry I missed it. Guess I should stop in more often. Hope you had a great day.
  22. I'm not a regular reviewer but I'm going to give this a try. I received the VmodXL from Vapage.com this week and I must say I'm kind of impressed. It came in a nice presentation box. The kit included the body, two soft 10ml bottles, two drip tips,a "silo" cartomizer and an atty. The internal body is made of abs plastic, and the outer shell is made of aluminum. Now I wouldn't suggest dropping it too many times, but it feels pretty sturdy and fits nice in your hand. This is my first feeder mod and it takes a little learning but in no time it all comes together. The original version used dedicated atty's, but this newer version will use any vendors atty's or cartomizers making it more serviceable. All in all I would recommend this to anyone who is looking into trying a feeder mod. It's not a" REO" mod but at only $ 85.00 it's a good mod to get started with. Use the code "vapin15" for an additional 15% off making it an even better deal. So if you're looking to try a feeder mod head over to Vapeage.com and check out the VmodXL. It's a nice 18650 feeder for a reasonable price. (they also have a 14500 size)
  23. Not really I don't think. Last time we were back by the dart boards. We will probably be back in that area again. Looking forward to seeing you there.
  24. Sorry to hear you've had trouble with them. They are usually pretty good with their orders. I've been to their warehouse and I know they fill a ton of orders a day, so some times I guess they get a little messed up. they're pretty good with service so if you give them a call I'm pretty sure they will make it right for you. Maybe they were just out of what you wanted and sent you what they had so you didn't have to wait for them to get stock back up. Either way..like I said give them a call and see what they can do. Good luck and happy vaping
  25. Well, the second of hopefully many meetings of the DCVapors club will be on February 18th 2012. We are meeting again at Fast Eddies in Springfield, Va. Hope to see all you vapors from the Md. Va. and DC. area for an evening of chat..friendship..and fun.
