Still on the look. So far Classic Tobacco from VapeDudes is heads above the rest. Waiting on Original Tobacco from Sweet-Vapes to come in but the Denver Dusk from VaproLeaf and Dekang Turkish Blend both have a very bad "chemical" aftertaste and I cant use them, in fact I can hardly tell them apart. I dont like overly sweet flavors, cannot stand the taste of coffee in any form, and am still looking for that flavor that will satisfy my craving for an analog when on the lake drinking beer. So far a mix of 75% Classic Tobacco from VapeDudes mixed with 25% Juicy Peach from Sweet-Vapes has been the best combination but it is a long way from satisfying in this situation.

What tank do you use and why?
bcartervol98 replied to bcartervol98's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I think I like the idea of a tank like the mini nova over clearomizers, but as it is I still haven't figured out what my all day vape is or is going to be. I think once I find what I like and dont like I will switch to a tank like the Mini Nova or Vivi Nova. As it stands now I can have 10-12 clearos filled with different flavors. What is funny is some flavors I like at first I end up not liking as much as I thought I did. Funny how taste works lol. -
After ordering from numerous suppliers I think they are top on my list. My clearomizers are on point, the exact same model from Sunvapes had the same vision logo but twisted unwraveling wicks while Sweet-Vapes came in perfect condition. I have only tried 7 flavors but all are my 7 favorites so far. Shipping is fast and easily trackable. Overall of the seven suppliers I have used their liquid is superior to the rest, their hardware is in stock and not "private label", and their shipping is cheap and dependable. Got my Spinners there too. 5 stars and will most likely be my go to supplier for everything going forward.
-
Second this! Read reviews and get a better setup cheaper than the Blu was if you intend to keep vaping. It's a whole different experience with high quality hardware! Congrats, I am 3 weeks analog free in one hour!

Sweet-Vapes have great taste and service. Still waiting on the tobacco flavor but everything else has been spot on. Will be a regular supplier. Quick to ship and good liquids. Plum, peach, strawberry, all awesome. Vape Dudes are spot on in their flavors. Strawberry Fields is both my and my wife's favorite flavor so far. Their classic tobacco is the best tobacco I have had yet even without steeping the recommended two weeks. Cherry tobacco is mediciny and if you like maple the American Standard is very good. Watermelon drip is awesome as well. Will be a regular supplier. Eliquidmarket: I was looking so forward to trying the Turkish blend as I smoked camel lights but it is chemical tasting and barely vapable. Their cherry is disgusting and going in the trash. So much for Dekang. Great price but a wasted $25. Vaporleaf: only tried Denver Dusk tobacco flavor and it is pretty good but nowhere as good as classic tobacco from Vape Dudes imo.
-
Denver Dusk is "ok" and the Turkish Blend from Dekang is just bad imo. Still waiting on Original Tobacco from Sweet-Vapes but so far Classic Tobacco from The Vape Dudes is miles ahead of everything else for my taste even without steeping as recommended. Will be sticking to Sweet-vapes and Vape Dudes from here on out.
-
After trying the Dekang garbage from eliquidmarket I appreciate the Vape Dudes even more.
-
They arrived. Turkish blend is "vapable" but nothing like i expected and the cherry is just south of disgusting and going in the trash. Lesson learned, you get what you pay for.

Is the E-Cig soppose to stay in the upright position
bcartervol98 replied to Patricia's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Not sure the "correct" but I lay mine down, put it in my pocket, stand it up, just depends on the circumstance. My case holds my 2 egot 1000mah and my 2 spinner 1300mah, 4 tanks and some Qtips and it is always on its side. If your clearomizer-tank leaks it is faulty. -
Definitely on the bottle size, of the first 20 6-10ml bottles I have bought there are only 3-4 that will be regular vapes for me. Still searching for the tobacco flavor I like.
-
I gotcha, that's what I was thinking without heating or use I cannot imagine it would do anything except sit there and steep. I wasn't sure if it steeps when sealed in a container. When steeping the liquid I was told to remove the lid to allow steeping, I just didn't know if the clearomizer would allow it to steep or if it would be sealed like in a bottle and not steep any further. Everytime I learn something it brings on more questions lol.
-
In the disposable CE4 or V2 (same thing I think) is it bad to leave juice in there? Say you fill up one with a flavor you find you really aren't fond of, but do not want to waste it and save it for a rainy day, is it ok to just set the clearomizer on a shelf with liquid in it? Will it damage the clearomizer to do this? Would the liquid continue to steep while sitting?
-
As I get further into this, I can see most people use some sort of tank system. I am currently using the Ce4 V2 disposables and am fairly happy with them, but until I found this forum I was fairly happy with the garbage I wasted money on at the mall lol. Simple question, what tank-clearomizer-atomizer-cartomizer do you use and why? After I run through the Ce4s I have I think I may try a rebuildable system as opposed to the disposables. When I ordered some juice from VapeDudes I ordered a couple T2 (I think) that are 2.0ml and have a removable head but I do not like them at all. They have two breather holes at the base and I do not feel like I am getting near the vapor I get from the CE4 V2s. Is there a consensus that the Vivi Nova or Mini Nova are the best tanks out there right now?
-
Oh that is helpful and easy to understand. For a VV device it looks like something with higher resistance would make for a better option, especially if using over 4v regularly whereas the lower resistance might be optimal for a standard 3.7v device. Would explain why the 2.4ohm coil heads always seem to be on backorder when I am looking at these since the VV devices seem to be the model of choice for so many.
-
Most of that is over my head, but at the end of the third one you posted it says an inherent advantage to lithium ion batteries is no battery memory, so that answers that I guess.
-
I pretty much vape constantly and am getting about 24 hours out of my eGoT 1000 mah and roughly the same out of my 1300mah Spinners. I think the eGoT runs at 3.7v and with the variable voltage of the Spinner it pretty much levels the battery life even though the Spinner is 300mah higher. I just always have a charger in my office at work, a couple at home, and one on the boat so it makes it easy to charge when one dies. Having 3 in backup always fully charged ensures I never run out or am without one. I have killed a lot of other types of batteries by creating a memory, I wouldnt think these would be different. Thing is, as cheap as they are now, I am not sure it is that big a deal because for the cost of one carton of analogs you can buy 2 1300mah spinners. I can tell now when it is getting close to dying. Last night I told my wife that mine was about to die, then about 3-4 hits later it blinked at me.
-
I have another question. Currently we are using the CE4 V2 disposable clearomizers and they have worked pretty good, Havent had any issues, using the light resistance model from Vision. Only issue is a slight burnt tasts above 4.3 on the Spinner but I find I like 4 and less anyway for my flavors I currently have. Once I go through the 20 CE4 V2s I bought for the wife and I to start with; I am thinking about switching to a tank style system that has replaceable heads. I think I will probably go with the Vision Mini Nova tank but am certainly open to suggestions. We both use Vision Spinner 1300mah with eGo T 1000mah backups. My main question is what is the difference in the vaping experience with different "Resistance" numbers? The kit comes with 1 2.5ml Clear Tank tube 1 Vivi Nova Tank Base & Cap 1 1.8ohm Coil Head 1 2.4ohm Coil Head 1 2.8ohm Coil head What is the difference between the 1.8, the 2.4, and the 2.8? Also with the tank do the tubes and bases-caps-drip tips make this all that much a better choice than just sticking with the original CE4 V2 disposables I am using now? Are there benefits to the Mini Nova Tank other than a slightly lower cost due to being able to replace the heads? I got a couple T3 tanks with replaceable heads thrown in from VapeDudes because they were out of the CE4s and I am not a fan, I get too much air.

First Week new to Vaping and the Forum
bcartervol98 replied to Skeeter's topic in Introduce Yourself
Just be glad you came here first to avoid the mistakes most of us make at first, buying $100 mall kits, $15 bottles of 10ml juice, etc... If I had found this forum before starting my vaping experience it would have saved me at least $200 in garbage. -
I let mine completely die before recharging but my case has 2 1300mah Spinners and 2 eGoT 1000 mah at all times, 3 of which have a full charge. Everything I have read leads me to believe it is best to let the battery completely die before recharging due to memory issues but I am interested in what others more experienced than I have to say.
-
I have been analog free for 3 weeks today and pretty much chain vape lol. If you don't drink enough water you will get heartburn, that's the only thing I have seen personally. Just drink water.

80/20 pg vg ratio vs 50-50
bcartervol98 replied to bcartervol98's topic in General eLiquid Discussion
Yea I am a bit disappointed in all the 50-50 liquids I have ordered to date. There is no throat hit at all in anything but the one classic tobacco flavor I have. Looking forward to getting the Dekang 80-20 and if I like that it will be my regular. Would it be a good idea to order some unflavored 100% PG in 24mg to mix with my current flavors to improve the throat hit? Only a 3 weeks off analogs and its the biggest thing missing for me. -
Bump Everytime You Buy Something New
bcartervol98 replied to blucavvy's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Like my 1300 mah Vision Spinner so much I ordered 2 more! -
It seems most places have 50-50 as their "standard" mix. What difference will I see from a 80/20 over the 50/50? I am noticing I do not get much of a throat hit with the 50-50 mixes, will 80/20 have a better hit?
-
I am looking forward to getting in my Turkish Blend Dekang. I need a good tobacco flavor to smoke with beer on the lake on weekends. I like a lot of different flavors but when drinking beer I need tobacco flavor. You ever tried the Turkish Blend? When I smoked analogs Camel was my preferred brand.
-
Agreed, to each their own. I have now ordered juice from Vaporleaf, Eliquidmarket, VapeDudes, and Sweet-Vapes.
