  1. Thanks for the replies guys. I'm waiting for mentha to come back in stock. Been wanting to try it for a while now. Will have to check out Geoffs blend when I order some more Atomic cinnacide. I also have been wanting to try the VT Grape Soda, does it have an intense flavor too? I don't think I could enjoy anything that doesn't now after trying the AC.

  2. Another tip, I ran across but forgot the details already, is to take needle nosed plier and gently pull or is it twist? the end of the cartomizer out a little tiny bit so that it will make a connection. Best bet though, is to get other cartos. Try the ones from VaporKings ...oh, and the ones VT store is getting in soon, the LR Boge ones.

    Which cartos did you buy that do not work btw?

    They were just 510 mega cartomizers and had gold threading. Just got them to try. I'll be sticking with the ego cartomizers, I loved everything about them.

  3. Look up "the reverse Taryn spin" by Leaford on youtube. If you don't have a lanyard, you can make one from a velvet bag or something. Sorry to hear your cartos don't work. Did you inform the supplier? Sometimes the carto won't reach the connection and the center of the battery has to be gently raised to meet it. Do you have an adapter? If you're using a 510 threaded pv, use a 510-901 adapter and then a 901-510 adapter to that and then put your carto on. If it works with the adapter set up, then it's probably the carto's are a tad too short. Which pv are you vaping with? Others, much more experienced than me, will be in to help you when they're free. Hang in there!

    Thanks Uma, I'm using the ego.

  4. I ordered a pack of 5 from a local supplier. And out of all 5 only 1 worked. I watched tons of video's on how to fill them, filled them exactly how it showed in the video, is there some little thing that I am doing to kill them? So damn frustrating. Any way to recover the liquid out of them. Cant believe I kept filling them.

    Thanks,

  5. Why are cartomizers so cheap compared to atomizers? Why would I use an atomizer when I could use the ego cartomizer at a fraction of the price?

    Side question:

    Why are most of the VT store liquids only available at low nic levels?

    Thanks,

    James C

  6. I totally agree with VT Midnight and I would like to ad wordup White Zin. Give those taste buds a chance to recover. I also am trying VT Dulcis, I don't like the tobacco flavors but this is incredible! Thanks to everyone who recommended it. Seriously the WU white zin is heaven, it's my top favorite. Comes only in 10mL so order the 20mL, 2 10's, wish I had on last order but am getting more this week-end. Jeffery is also having sale this week-end.

    What does it taste like?

  7. As a new member and also as a new person to vaping I suggest trying the ego cartomizers. I like them more then dripping and found they have made it all easier for me. I also found that 24 mg nicotine helped for the cravings more then 18 or lower. I'm only just starting myself but that's whats I've found so far.

  8. I am loving the VT midnight-nice sweetish blend, light fruit flavor--no tobacco taste--not much of a tobacco person anymore.

    for me--menthol is great for adding to my other flavors for a bit of a cool throat hit--usually only add a few drops to my liquids (I usually add to taste).

    I also really love the champagne flavor from wordup.......

    you will have plenty of trial and error ahead of you. 17 months later and I still love trying new flavors.

    Thanks, I'm 4 days in without smoking.

  9. I have no idea what I would like, the ones I thought I would really like didn't really do much for me. I now know I won't like anything that has a tobacco flavor in it. Does the vt mentha have a tobacco taste in it?

  10. Well, I found out I dont like menthol. The tabacco flavor in the menthol is not good heh. But I did find out that I like 24mg nicotine much better for handling cravings. So not all was lost. The journey continues

    What are some absolutely bomb proof flavors?

  11. Thanks, im finding the flavors arnt as bad as i thought. I had some flavors contaminating others in the atomizer. But still none I really like but there not all gross. Im hoping to find something that tastes good n makes this all easier. Ordered a menthol and a blackberry, see how that goes.

  12. Yea, I'm not going to give up. I'm sure I'll find a flavour that I'll like. I'm going to try vaporskitchen, they are close and will be cheap shipping. They have so many flavours its crazy, I don't know what to get. I want to try a menthol but they also have every fruit also in menthol. I think I'll stay away from the fruits for now though although it sounds good. If anyone wants to look at there site and give me any suggestions what to try that would be great, I'm so damn indecisive.

  13. another thought is that it might be the primer on your new atty giving you a bad first impression. Pick up some 510 carto's with soft tops and see if they taste better. Until then, blow out the atty, let it drain on a kleenex/paper towel, re prime with 2 or 3 drops of eliquid, prime puff it like a pipe, re drip... now inhale.

    Its not the atomizer, I wasted a couple cartomizers with some bad tasting liquid too. Its just too sweet tasting. Like a bad fake sweet. Its hard to explain but I dont like it. All the fruit flavors dont taste like fruit, they taste like a candy version of the fruit. Everything besides the fireball are flavours I absolutely love in the real world. My tastebuds are getting tons of flavor, they just arn't liking the flavors. The fireball isn't bad, it tastes like the fireball liqour. I just don't really like that liqour, thought it would be cinnamon flavored.

    Should I start looking toward tobacco flavors? Or what kind of flavors would you suggest since I'm not really liking the candy/fruity flavors.

    Thanks for everyones help, who ever suggested the ego cartomizer to me a big thumbs up. Liking it more then dripping.

  14. Please don't give up yet. I honestly believe that vaping is for ANYONE who smokes. It took me a few months to totally quit the analogs, I thought that vaping wasn't for me either, but I just kept trying and now I'm a vaping fiend, LOL. Check out www.juicyvapor.com. This is where I get the majority of my e-liquids. They're not in Canada but they're close, New York. I always get a PG/VG mix. What flavors have you tried? I had to try all kinds of flavors to find my faves. My friend who introduced me to vaping swore that I would ONLY like tobacco flavors, since I smoked Camel Lights. As it turns out, my husband and I both prefer the more fun fruity flavors.

    I got 50/50 vg pg

    BlueBerry, Dr. Pepper, Rootbeer, Bubble gum, watermelon, fireball, mint, redbull, kiwi, pepsi. They are all gross in my opinion, mint tasted the best. I wanted to stay away from tobacco flavors but maybe I'll try a menthol. The mint would have been great if not for the weird chocolate after taste. All this wasted money on liquids I cant stand to use kind of bums me out.

  15. Thanks, I did a whole lot of searching and found a Canadian supplier with tons of choice. Vaporskitchen.com. They have too much to choose from lol, I don't even know where to start.

    liquid order came in from wordup today. Got 10 sample flavors and dont like any of them. Little worried vaping might not be for me.

  16. I'm in Canada also and after first order within Canada - due to lack of choice and high prices I have been ordering via the USA. First order was with BlueMist Vaping - and received order in 9 days from east coast US to Vancouver Island, 2nd order has just cleared customs on Friday (Toronto) and will be here tomorrow - 8 days. This was ordered from Litecigusa ($15 shipping) and have just ordered from here - Vaportalk and order is en route. Did not pay any postage for order 1 and 2 as orders were over required $$ for free shipping. I'm a happy camper so far with flavours and DIY supplies. Hope this helps.

  17. Thanks to your guys help, I got my ego and everything I need, however I need to find a good place to buy liquid. The shipping cost from my order from wordup just killed me. Won't be ordering from them again. Is there anyone who ships to Canada at a reasonable price that you guys would suggest?

    Thanks

  18. Thanks, could you suggest somewhere to get the mega drip tip?

    Welcome Jamesc and congrats on making your first purchase!

    As soon as you can afford to (time and/or finances), I would get the Mega (XL) ATTY and the Mega Drip tip to go with it. You'll love it! (well, I sure do mine).

  19. Thanks Lily, but will it safely cross the border?

    Hi, it seems like you can purchase the eGo for less from the States. As for e-liquid you might want to start out at the Vapor Talk Store (link is at the top of this page). If I or someone else hasn't mentioned it there is a How Do I section that covers the basics of vaping, direct dipping, filling a cartomizer which you may want to try when you get settled in with your eGo. VG - vegetable glycerin or PG - propylene glycol is the e-liquid base to which nicotine extract is added. Many will say that VG produces more vapor with less flavor while PG has less vapor, more flavor. I vape all PG and I get lots of vapor. Some of us complain that VG is thick and can gum up an atomizer before its time. It really will boil down to preference. If you can budget it, try both or you can try a mix of VG/PG like 80PG/20VG. The Suppliers link is also at the top with a variety of vendors who sell e-liquid. Hope this helps. Gluck!

  20. Sorry, not sure how to edit. This looks like a better deal think I will go with this http://www.nicfitnation.com/buy-the-ego-ecig/

    Ok I messaged the happervapor people about the happy ego and within a minute they replied to me saying it is manufactured by joye. Crazy customer service lol. So this is what I'm going with http://www.happyvaper.com/Happy_eGo_E_cigarette_Starter_Kit_p/ego-kit.htm

    I'd like to get everything I need in 1 shot. Should I also get a pack of atomizers? Should I get the xl, regular, or lr ones? Should I get the mega battery? I'm going to take dayvapes suggestion and order those carto's, to bad they are out of stock though.

    As for the liquids, all of the ones from the happyvaper site contain no nicotine? That seems weird to me. I read about problems from people ordering liquids from the States to Canada. How big of a gamble would it be ordering from the states?

    And for ordering from the states what mg nicotine is recommended? propylene glycol or vegetable glycerin?

    Thanks again for all the help
