Before you started vaping did you put the battery on a charger and let it fully charge? If you did then I'd say get in contact with the vendor and get a new one. If not, put it on the charger and make sure it's topped up. Even though they come partially charged it might not have enough oomph to work at its best. Just a thought.

The juices I buy from EC Blends all require steeping. Some longer than others. When they ship the juice they also include a good sized flier with information about steeping. They also have a long FAQ on their web site with more information than most probably want. I much prefer getting fresh juice that I steep myself than to get juice pre-steeped that I don't know how old it is when I get it. There's one vendor that many people here like a lot that I won't buy from anymore. Their juices are pre-steeped and most are pretty vile when I get them as they're not just "steeped", they're just plain OLD.

Congrats on your first 90 days! May you have hundreds more to come.

Keep all your gear together with the exception of the juice. Those go into the ziplock quart baggie with your other liquids. TSA are used to seeing e-cigs now so you shouldn't have any problems.

Every time I see prices go up on analogs I'm so thankful that I was able to switch to vaping.

I remember those. When I first started smoking cigarettes from the vending machines on base were 15 cents a pack. You put in a quarter and got the pack of smokes with a dime taped to it for change. Shortly after that prices went up to 25 cents per pack. I also remember saying that I'd quit when they got to a dollar each because I wasn't paying that much for cigarettes. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Me quitting, that is. Prices just kept climbing from there.

Just teasing you, kiddo. I don't tease people I don't like.

Did you mean "Bump every time you buy something new"? I like your version better.

See? Jeffb is truly the master of semantics.

Potato - potahto The "mouthpiece" comes out and looks like a drip tip. By strict definition, aren't all drip tips mouthpieces?

What Kitsune said! And you can buy a LOT of new toys and still not spend as much as you would have with analogs.

Sometimes it's a little difficult to figure out what people new to vaping are asking. I love a good mystery, though.

You're welcome, Christie. Click on this link: http://www.empiremods.com/category_s/48.htm All of the 901/510 drip tips will fit your tank. You can change them out to whatever you like. Stay away from the 306s as those won't fit.

Yep, just found this little gem: http://vapingguides.com/blog/breaking-news/anyvape-viva-bcc-mega-tank/ See how the pictures show that it all comes apart? I was right: you do fill from the bottom. Don't fill from the top as it won't let you get much juice in.

Thanks, Bebop. Looks like you just flip it upside down, unscrew the bottom (where it screws onto your battery), fill with juice around the outside of the center post, replace bottom, tip right side up, place onto battery, let sit for a few minutes to allow the juice to soak into the wick and then vape. If the drip tip comes off that just means you can replace it with one of your choice if you want. Clear as mud?

Would you please post a link to this vape viva mega bcc you're talking about? If we could see it we might be able to give you answers to your questions better.

It's not like we're talking 78s, Blu.

We're off topic here so I'll PM you.

"Heavy" flavors like the peanut butter ones are going to need to steep a week or more to get to the real flavor so it's going to be awhile. I tried the peanut butter cookie one last night and it's pretty good already. Give it a little more time and it should be delicious. I'm going through a "must have VERY sweet juice" phase right now so I keep a bottle of sweetner at 12 mg nic, 50/50 so I can add it in a separate bottle a little at a time.

Thanks, Bebop, but I've been a very steady customer of EC Blends for about a year now. I'd say around 80% of all my juices come from them and I've probably tried...easily 90 of their flavors so far. I love how I can customize everything and their customer service is most excellent!

WAS a bassist and lead vocals but that was many, many years ago. Now I'm just older than dirt.

Like I really needed more juice. Just in today from EC Blends: Create your own: Bavarian Cream with Malt, 12 mg nic, 50/50 PG/VG, 15 ml Dragon's Breath, 12 mg nic, 50/50, 15 ml Apple Pie, 12 mg nic, 60 PG/40 VG, double extra sweet, 15 ml Peanut butter, 12 mg nic, 50/50, double extra sweet, 15 ml Peanut butter cookies, 12 mg nic, 50/50, 5 ml Boysenberry, 12 mg nic, 50/50, 5 ml Strawberry Daiquiri, 12 mg nic, 50/50, 5 ml

LOL! Maybe back in the stone ages when I was much younger. Also, put an Ibanez Roadstar II 5-string bass in her hands... These days I look more like this:

How fun, I'll play. And I guess it's safe to say my music tastes run all over the place.

Just ordered another 10 ml of Strawberry Fields with extra flavor this time. I really like this as-is but I'm a little flavor challenged so before I buy a large quantity I'd like to see which one is going to be it for me. The flavor is really good, though. I've been vaping it all day.
