Holy cow those are some high prices.
-
I am not a fan. Has the same funny taste I get from Dekang.
-
I have 500-600 ml at all times I keep in my bar where wine would go.

Just popped on the Candy Cane after about 36 hours straight of Strawberry Fields. Figured I better switch tastes since in a couple hours I will be in the cove sipping Bourbon and discovered last weekend Strawberry Fields goes very nicely with Makers Mark. My tobacco flavor may just sit now lol.
-
American Standard is the strangest flavor I have ever tasted. It is supposed to be tobacco, but tastes like stale pancakes and for some reason, the vapor would hang around the room like smoke does. I mean several minutes later where would still be a cloud of vapor in the room. I have seen no other flavor do that. Also dont think you are getting the maple taste out of your wicks lol. Just change the coil imo. Wasnt a huge fan of Hazelnut Coffee but I do not like coffee anyway so thats most likely why. I cannot wait for my sampler to get here! I didnt like Blue Honey either, too sweet. I think the only two flavors we both got in this latest sampler are Key Lime Pie and Fruiti Stripe Gum. Mine should be here Monday and I will start posting reviews.

Curious as to what the resolution on this was with Sweet-Vapes for you. They are letting me return some dripping supplies for in store credit as long as they are still in the packaging.
-
As soon as I sent this message I received a call from Chuck. He said it had shipped Friday but I can return the package unopened and get full in store credit. I am satisfied with this resolution.
-
Yea, like anything else what works for one is not necessarily what works for another. I am keeping the ones I got from Brian just to taste liquids in before committing a tank and coil to them. I am hoping Sweet-Vapes will let me cancel my order there or substitute it. They only ship M-F and I made my order after hours and have sent a reply email to my order, a contact us email on the site, left a voice mail at the store, and sent both Chuck and Dayna Facebook messages. I have ordered a ton of stuff from them, hopefully they will get it. I even told them instead of a refund they could sent me a comparable amount of T3S coils and deduct a reasonable repackaging fee if necessary. Haven't heard anything yet but not surprised since they are a M-F place. AND as I type this i get a shipping confirmation. If they are there to ship, why can someone not listen to the voice mails, read the e-mails I sent, or reply in some sort of way. I mean, I placed the order its not like its their mistake but any other time I have sent in correspondence I have gotten an answer and have been satisfied.

I never even attempted to use the drip shield. I cleaned out the attys with a tissue and blew the primer out as instructed. I put a drip tip on, dripped 3 drops in, vaped until I got a metallic taste, dripped 3-4 drops in, and repeated. I think the problem is I have gotten so used to the draw off these Kanger tanks and the attys are a lot tighter draw like the Vision tanks I cant use without getting a headache from sucking so hard. It felt weird to me, my battery got very hot to the touch, and it was just overall not something I liked. I will file it under a "to each their own" kind of thing. I got it to work, its not that. I just found myself wanting to get my tank back on the whole time. I did with two flavors and on each there wasn't an appreciable difference in the taste to me, not enough to make me want to continue. I guess its not for everyone. Its not that I couldn't do it, its that I prefer my tank.
-
Im hoping they will cancel my order of extra ones lol. I also let them know if they just wanted to substitute a comparable dollar amount of T3S coils instead if they don't want to cancel the order this is an acceptable solution. I order a lot, I expect they will be helpful. Gonna keep the couple I got just to try this again at some point. I am sure I will want to, just got disgusted last night never could get a good draw but it is so tight, especially when used to Kanger tanks. The way you hit it seems to be more like an analog, take a pull and inhale as opposed to taking a long slow draw with the Kangers.
-
I use 24mg all the time, do not even own any other strength of liquid. I have had those symptoms at first but it was solved by drinking more water. Classic signs of dehydration IMO.
-
I do not think dripping is for me. I never really figured it out last night and finally just screwed my T3S back on and aaahhhh. In theory it sounds good but in practice not so much for me. I never got anywhere close to getting a draw even comparable to my tanks. I had ordered a couple more attys of different kinds and drip tips from Sweet-Vapes and sent an email to please cancel the order. I hope they do, the last thing I need is more stuff I'm not gonna use lol.
-
2.0 ohm and vaping around 3.8v on my spinner.
-
Should the atty and battery connection be getting noticeably hot? I never even felt the power button get warm with a clearo on there. Boy this is different.
-
I'm not using the shield, apparently I put too much in. I already can tell the flavor is infinitely better. Brian sent me a 306 (I think) too gonna try that one next. Not using a drip shield since apparently the ones I bought require a 510-510 adapter. Good thing I ordered two more today. Learning lol. I'm getting decent vapor now but still a lot less than with my clearo. I am still figuring this out haha
-
Something is not right here lol. I dripped about 3 drops in and got a couple good hits. Then I dropped a few more drops in and all I get is gurgling. No vapor. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Battery and button getting super hot too.
-
Ok cleaned primer out and understand the concept. When I slide the drip shield on I can't get any air to get a hit. It is literally like sucking on a straw with my finger covering the other end. Gonna try it later when I get back home from this damn birthday party we got committed to go to. With or without the drip shield.
-
My understanding is the drip tip is so you can drip into it. Then gently blow into it to make sure the liquid makes it down to the coil. The Atty is screwed on the battery, shield slipped over it, then the drip tip is attached. Drip a few drops into the drip tip, give them a few seconds to reach the bottom, and vape until you get a metallic taste then redrip. I have also been instructed to keep fruit and heavier flavors separated into separate attys.

Help me get through to my doctor! And one other thing.

Soon you will be where most of us are, preferring the e-cig. Even if it were discovered both were equal in their health ramifications I would still vape if I continue doing either. It tastes better, I dont stink, I can smell and taste things, and its cheaper (for now). I am on a boat in a cove every weekend with mostly other smokers. I have broken down and tried one and immediately gave it back and grabbed my Spinner. I feel more satisfied form it than I ever did a cigarette and my work productivity has increased immensely. -

I was on blood pressure medicine for hypertension that went away once I quit smoking. I was in the hospital having tests done before my DR took me off my medicine and my cardiologist welcomed me to vape away in my hospital room. Nurses said nothing. He said he is trying to get all his smoking patients to switch to electronics and that they were "Thousands of times better" than cigarettes. He also said by me switching I may have not only added years to my life, but possibly decades. -
Strawberry Fields since this morning again lol. May stay the course today, its tastin pretty awesome. May switch to Candy Cane at some point but right now the SF is gettin it done!

Attys I got: http://www.theveteranvaper.com/joye-510-atomizer-matte-black/ Drip Tips http://www.theveteranvaper.com/510-short-delrin-drip-tips/ Drip Shields I got http://www.sweet-vapes.com/shop?page=shop.product_details&flypage=vmj_color_plus.tpl&product_id=1537&category_id=63 Pretty basic setup before I jump in with both feet lol.
-
Yea, and I do not use cartos I use clearomizers and I have never been able to wash wicks and get the taste of the prior juice out so if I end up not liking a flavor I have been throwing away the wick, soaking the tank in alcohol, and putting in a new wick. This should save me a few $$$ on that too. I can know what I think of a flavor before committing one of my 30 odd tanks to it lol.
-
When you change flavors, do you just wait until you do not get any vapor from the previous flavor, then just drip the new flavor in with no cleaning or anything?
