Update
I've been using this for 5 days now and I must admit I'm impressed.
I wasn't really expecting a lot due to the shallow resiviour and the simplicity of the atty. I do wish it held more, I get an average of just under 20 good hits before it needs more juice but man this thing hits hard and with tons of flavor.
And I don't know if I just got lucky or what but this thing really wicks.
I can tell when it needs juice because the flavor slowly goes away but I've never had a dry hit yet.
Here are a couple of shots, one when it's starting to lose flavor and one after juicing the reservoir. And this is only filling the reservoir, not dripping on the cotton or the coils.

wbeard1218 reacted to Tam in Time Flies... 5 year vaperversary
Even after year of trying everything that was available, I was never able to stop smoking. One day, five years ago, I saw a co-worker outside sucking on what looked like a pen (eGo T 650 mAh) and exhaling plumes of what looked like smoke but smelled so much better. I stopped and starting asking questions. That night after work I stopped by the B&M and bought myself my first vape gear: an eGo-T 650 mAh battery, two CE4 tanks with 1.5 ohm coils with a 5-pack back up, an AC adapter, a charging cable, and three bottles of juice.
Back then, it cost a total of $165.00
A few days later I went back and discovered that eGo had a new battery out -- a 650 passthrough! And Kanger put out a new tank -- a T2 with top coils/short wick.
I started vaping and collecting more back ups, more juices, never really looking back. The six packs of smokes I had in the fridge remained there for another two years until I finally threw them away. The first six months or so, I'd tempt fate and would light up just to see if I still liked it or not.
The answer would be... not.
Haven't looked back since. Around the first six month mark, I was playing on the internet and discovered a different vape forum. It was too big, the people weren't very patient with "noobs", nor were they very kind or friendly so I continued looking around.
Hey! Check out this new place I found! It's called Vapor Talk. The people were very friendly, very knowledgeable, and I felt welcomed here. It's where I call 'home' now. The people are wonderful, they are all about helping new vapers with their questions no matter how many times they answer the same thing. They enjoy derailing threads, but that only makes the conversation more interesting and the subject comes back around... eventually. Yes, we do periodically get some bad apples here, but it's rare and they usually get tired of our slower pace and go away. The good ones stay. Eventually, I was asked to become an admin here, and it was a scary thing, and I'm still learning.
This long-winded thing is my way of saying a BIG THANK YOU! to @Christopher for starting this forum, to my fellow admins and mods, and to all the wonderful members here (both old and new), who make the forum a place to hang my hat. These days, after all this time, I no longer have any doubts that I'll ever go back to smoking. Vaper Talk has played a huge part in helping with this. Happy 5-year vaperversary to me!

Lol, That's what I figure. It matches my favorite leather jacket real well!

Works great, like the day I bought it. It has changed appearance, however.

Oh and my half gallon of VG/Nic premix should be on my doorstep tomorrow. XD. Should have enough to get through the next 8 months minimum.

What tank/coils are you using? The baby beast that came with the alien? If so, smok doesn't make coils for it that are capable of temp control. They're all kanthal wattage mode only coils.

You'll pick up on quantity real fast. I started with 250ml bottles of VG/PG and quickly ramped up to liters and gallons.

Mmmmmm Vanilla bean ice cream.
Oh. You're talking about the flavoring. Now you've got me thinking about wanting real ice cream, lol.

Smok Alien 220W with Crown III tank, killer combo. While I really really like the baby beast that came with the Crown really produces the vapor and flavor I crave. Currently using the 0.5 coil in TC

I love my yappy little dog... except, thankfully, he's not so yappy.

New purchase/First impressions: SX mini Q mini.
I was so impressed with the Q Mini ML Class that I picked this up for extended battery life. The only aspect of the ml class that I was disappointed with. Unfortunately, much of what impressed me about the ml class is changed in this unit. It is light. I get it. People like light things. For me it just doesn't feel substantial. The ml class feels like a rock in my hand. The fire button is moved down. Not being on the curved surface, it is not as nice to the touch. The fire button is mushy. It does provide a positive connect and disconnect but I can't feel it in my finger. Last but not least, the custom ramp up curve is not working. I have a ticket open with Yihi. The bluetooth capability is a cute add on but without the custom curve function working I really don't need it. The menu system on the device works just fine.

Thought this would be a good thread to give us an idea of what we all use and what new stuff we all try.
Last night i bought a 30ml of TVR Ginger's RY4, and for my free 3ml i picked Strawberry Cheesecake. Both at 18mg and 75/25 vg/pg.
Love TVR juice, still the best i've ever tried, and they're prices (which are amazing) and the fact that it's 100% sourced and manufactured in America is awesome.

Absolutely love my Smok Alien with baby beast tank. The .15 coil will drink up some juice. Good flavor and nice vapor I guess that the trade off
