Gummy Blood is quickly growing on me after I emptied the OrangeZilla tank!
-
OrangeZilla is a crazy flavor (my wife hates it btw). The first draw I took was shocking. I wasnt sure. Massive throat hit even with 65vg.Then I took another draw, smoother. Now I have an empty Davide Mini in my case and will be ordering a bigger bottle as soon as I get home. I would rank them (and the top 3 are so close it should be a tie really) 1. Unicorn Blood 2. Endless Summer 3. OrangeZilla 4. WaterFelons 5.Gummy Blood (although I am halfway through a tank there too and it is growing on me) 6 Rasta Blood

My 18650s were 9 bucks at Veteran Vaper. http://www.theveteranvaper.com/efest-imr-18650-2000mah-3-7v-button-top/ I'm not saying pay B&M prices for stuff but there are plenty of US companies that are competitively priced and when you consider customer service, ease, shipping costs and time, I wouldn't order anything from China personally. Especially to save 5-6% tops when it is all said and done. I know that's where they mostly originate, hardware wise, but let them make the wholesale dollars and keep the retail dollars at home is my view point. -
I would imagine yes. When I clean my Davides and KPT2 I just disassemble them, rinse them with hot water, put them in a cup of alcohol and swish them around a few times over a couple hour period, then rinse them and let them dry. I would never "scrub" them. You bust a seal or an o-ring and its over.

Ok some reviews and some "initial impressions" on my new flavors. All I can say is they are my new #1 vendor. They blow everyone else I have tried away, seriously, in a big way. Unicorn Blood: This has quickly become my favorite of all. Smells just like Hawaiian Punch, very red in color, but to me, tastes like a tropical drink you would get in the Bahamas. There is a spice to it reminiscent of spiced rum, very good flavor. Amazing vapor production and great taste at their standard mix of 65vg 35pg 18mg as well as 50-50 18mg as I have tried both. I cannot tell that much of a difference so I will be ordering the standard form here on out, already ordered more since the tasting I went through that 10ml and half a 30ml since then. Endless Summer: This is a Strawberry Lemonade flavor, clear in color with a slight yellowish tint, that I am very very fond of. I am torn whether I call this or Uni Blood my #1 flavor. It is very citrusy with a sweet kick too. I have a hard time explaining this one, but I like it a lot and have already ordered more. It too has a very "tropical" feel to the flavor and is very complex. Another one I will have a tank of almost all the time. OrangeZilla: This is a first impression, but when I took the first draw I was like WTF is this? I was expecting sweet and got more of a spice and strong throat hit. Then I took another draw and was like, ok This is OK. By the third draw I had figure out I really like this liquid and haven't taken the tank off since about 8pm last night. It is orangish pink in color and I can taste orange with a cream but also a spice....almost like a slight hint of clove. WaterFelons: I have searched for a good watermelon flavor. Watermelon Drip fro VapeDudes and Watermelon form Sweet-Vapes, ECblends, and MBV all tasted like candy to me, not the actual thing. This one, at a first impression, is the best melon flavor I have tried. Not overly sweet, clear in color, great flavor and vapor. If you like melon vapes, this is one to try Gummy Blood: I am still not sure about this one. First impression is there is a lot going on with this one. Several fruits mixed with a bit of a spice taste as well. It is green in color and tastes good, but to be honest I haven't vaped enough of it to give anything but a first impression. So far a flavor that tastes good, but until I vape at least a tank it will be tough to know if I like this one a lot or just a little. Rasta Blood: Ok this is supposed to be a Strawberry and white chocolate blend with a hint of "Rasta". I do not get the hint of Rasta at all, and overall not a huge fan of this one. I can taste the strawberry, but not the chocolate, and whatever goes in there is emulate "Rasta" tastes more like a spice or something. Either way, this is the only Fuzion flavor that has gone into the "Give away, donate, or sell" box. Overall I really like Fuzion. My orders seem to arrive a day or two earlier than what is estimated, they are easy to communicate with and answer quickly, and their flavors are complex and pretty much on the money. Their standard base is 65vg35pg but can be changed in the comments section of your order. I have never had a liquid of any mixture from anywhere else that produces the clouds of vapor these flavors do. As always this is what they taste like TO ME. With liquids something can taste like heaven to one and like a turd to another, so its all subjective. They are not the most expensive and not the cheapest, but very very high quality imo and worth a try. Their 10ml bottles are $9, 30ml are $18, 120ml plastic bottles are $55 and glass in the 120ml is $5 more. I wish they had a 50ml option. They also offer a (3) 10ml sample pack for $19 which is a pretty good deal if you wanted to try them.

Funny what is too airy to one is too tight to another. My only complaint about the KPT 2 is how tight the draw is. Reminds me of the Vivi Nova, but I can take it with 1.8ohms.

Shoulda Got a Vision Spinner a Long Time Ago
bcartervol98 replied to Bebop's topic in e Cigarette Reviews
Lol I bet we were thinking the same thing Troy. Seriously I am convinced the Vision Spinner 1300mah is the best Ego style battery on the market all things considered. -
Still on the Orangezilla since last night about to switch to WaterFelons

Just going to chime in with "There is no way in hell I would ever order anything from a Chinese company". I support American companies and cannot see supporting a Chinese company over an American company over a few bucks.. This could become a rant but I'm not going there. Just my 2 cents. -

I am stoked to have found some flavors I like. Switching between Straw Fields, Spearmint, and Candy Cane was growing old! -

Yes my technique of swishing the parts around in a small cup of alcohol and pouring them out into my hand to rinse has since been replaced with pouring then into a strainer to rinse -

bcartervol98 replied to blucavvy's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I have probably tried 90+ but only 8 I like enough to vape. Guess I'm a juice snob haha -
Their 3 bottle sampler is a pretty good deal given the quality. Just don't be mad if you dont like it lol. Unicorn Blood is my favorite overall and Endless Summer is right there with it. These three new flavors are all great too, but not at the level of those two for my taste although I try to not rank a liquid until after a couple tanks. I plan to break down my initial impressions of these three new ones and full reviews of my two favorites tomorrow at work lol.

Until I tried Fuzion it was number one and still is when I drink. It's what I keep in the only KPT I own and is my at the lake unit on top of a spinner 1300-lanyard. I miss R2D2 on the lake but its literally party cove every weekend so I know it would get destroyed in short order. -

I'm Spending Too Much On Vaping!
bcartervol98 replied to Rixter's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I also am 100% online. I was looking forward to Vintage Vapors opening literally on my way to and from work. Get this, they do not offer 18mg liquid. Wat? 0,6,12,24 And get this, people that go there told me their 12mg is just as strong as the 18mg you get online. I was like, huh? Did someone just say that when scientific measurements are involved? -
My new Fuzion flavors Orangezilla WaterFelons Gummy Blood Will post reviews tomorrow but there is no doubt in my mind at this point Fuzion is a better quality liquid and has unbelievable flavor profiles far superior to anything else I have tried and I have tried a bunch of places. I now have 6 Davides in rotation and in my case and 5 are Fuzion flavors. About to over nic from switching them to try and identify all the flavors in them.
-
Yea I can't see myself doing all that.

The weird thing for me with this is the first draw never tastes burned. I pick it up after sitting for a while and take a draw, always fine regardless of how old the coil is. The next draw, a little burned. The next more burned. I let it sit for 4-5 minutes, another fresh draw, then repeat. Thats why I go through so many coils as I usually change them every 2nd or 3rd time I fill my Davide Minis and KPT2. The exception is Spearmint and Peppermint. I still have the same coils in those from a month ago. Its only the sweeter fruity flavors that do it. I once thought it was Strawberry Fields only but all my Fuzion flavors are the same so far. First tank with new coil, awesome, second not as awesome, 3rd or 4th tank the first draw is awesome then burned taste.
-
No I haven't dry burned anything. I dont understand the chemistry and reasoning behind it is my reasoning for not doing it. If i am experiencing a burned taste from putting heat to a wick-coil soaked with liquid I would think it would be worse if I dry burned it. Maybe I just do not get the concept Its really not that big a deal to me personally, the coils are cheap enough. I may try cleaning some coils, I may not. I may just save all my old ones and trade them to IMedic the re-builder for liquids lol.
-
I didn't get this at first. I wanted throat hit and a good one. It was important to me. Now approaching 5 months in I am only concerned with flavor, vapor production, and getting this at the lowest nic level I can stand to use. Right now that is 16-18mg in 50-50 and even some 65vg 35pg depending on the supplier but the drop from 24mg to these levels resulted in a staggering improvement in flavor.
-
How do you "clean" your coils? I may want to try your method and I am sure OP wouldnt mind hearing it as well. I just have not had much success at getting flavors out of the wicks and if there is a way to do it, then I am game. I thought about just keeping a cup of alcohol in my "tank maintenance area" and tossing the coils directly in there once they get a burned taste then when I get 7-8 in there rinsing them several times with hot water, adding more alcohol, letting them soak for a day or two then lay them out to dry. Is that a decent plan?

Davide Glassomizer and Mini Davide by Anyvape on sale now
bcartervol98 replied to Tam's topic in General Vaping Discussion
A warning of sorts. A lot of people are buying these now, and when you clean them you have to be very careful with the rubber gasket that sits inside the piece the drip tip slides into. Usually when I disassemble the tank, that round gasket is stuck to the top of the tank, and is usually loose floating around when I take them out of the alcohol wash. I imagine it would be tough to replace if lost, and I have come close even knowing to watch out for it. -
Mine shipped today!

Easiest way to explain it ever is that Big Tobacco is losing billions to the E-Cig industry, they have both politicians and doctors at their disposal, bought and paid for. If there were ANY WAY they could prove they are harmful, they would have done it already. Instead, they are trying to find ways to invest and buy into the industry as they KNOW once reputable long term studies are made public it will show e-cigs to be a much much healthier alternative to smoking combustible leaves and stems.
