I've used the Vaporesso Zero, which is actually the "Renova" Zero (just one of Vaporesso's brands). I think I've had 3 or 4 of them by now. I don't use one anymore but I used to appreciate how small they are. My qualm with them though was that they leaked somewhat often and it was annoying enough that I switched vapes. They might have improved it but it seemed to leak pretty frequently. They'd leak both in my mouth and inside the area where the pod connects to the device. I remember regularly pulling the pod and cleaning the connection area with a paper towel to keep it nice and clean, which is frankly not something I think you should ever need to do with a vape. As if regular leaks weren't enough, I purchased one Zero that had a defective battery where the opening to slip the pod in was too tight for the pod to fit properly and it would squeeze the pod, which seemed to spawn regular e-juice leaks - it was awful.
Despite the problems I've had with the Zero, the worst pod vape I've probably used is the Juul. And the best one to date is probably the Vaporesso Xros, which is kind of surprising seeing as Vaporesso is also behind the Zero that I've come to despise lol.
If you need a good reason to choose one vape over another, you might consider what I consider: can you buy it and replacement pods at your local smoke/vape shop? With both the Xros and the Zero I know I can always find pods at at least one of the local shops here so I'm stuck searching online and then waiting for my pods to arrive in the mail.

Hey Vapor Talk..... It's been YEAR'S !  I joined this site way back in May 2010....glad to see it's still going!  It crossed my mind this morning to check in and take a look at my banner I started all those years ago (11years).  What a SHOCKER!!  Over $47 thousand in savings and more than 4100 days without a cigarette!  I still vape...but I must say, I wish I could shake the e-cig monkey off my back now.  Still.... better than smoking 2 packs a day I guess.  Ok well..see ya all in another 2-5 years! 

Great site keeping track of all the current bans and what you can do to stop them

Ah man I tried that, couldn't pull it off (the 0 nic). I kind of just went from whatever it was at the time, probably 5% straight down to zero and it just didn't do it for me. At the time I thought it was just cause of the lack of nicotine but I've started to wonder if it's the lack of menthol because I was using (and still use) a lot of iced juices and when I picked up some 0-nic it was a non-iced flavor, some kind of dragon fruit something or other from I remember. I think the throat hit from the menthol is a big part of vaping for me after smoking cigs for so many years before switching. I might have to try it again but I feel you on the "but I'm in no hurry" cause that pretty much sums up my thoughts on quitting nicotine/vaping since I switched from smoking. I feel so much better now that I don't care much if I continue to vape, just figure it'd be better if I eventually quit but no compulsion to do it anytime soon lol

Caffeine is not absorbed by the body the same way Nicotine is.  Nicotine can be absorbed by the skin, aerosolized, liquid, solid, and is absorbed at 99% rate, regardless of method.  Heat increases the absorption rate to increase perceived effects...  Caffeine is best absorbed in liquid form, ingested into the stomach, and processed into the blood-stream by the kidneys/intestines.  Ingestion has an absorption rate of 99%, but takes up to 45-min to feel the effects.
Caffeine gum and sprays are absorbed into the bloodstream through the mouth and throat, but only at the level of 50-75% the rate of an equal volume ingested into the stomach.
Caffeine "could" be added to e-liquids, but to get the equivalent of a cup of coffee, you'd have to vape 300mg (or a liter of 33% solution), and it would take 45-min for the effects to be felt.  Basically, you'd have to drown in the stuff, and wouldn't get much benefit for the effort

Now imagine that in a enclosed in a mod, in your pocket or in your car while your shopping. Battery safety is no joke.

Hello, and welcome to Vapor Talk! Glad to hear you've picked up vaping and put down the nasty alternative. How do you like your new pod system? Is it working well for you?

For me, I didn't notice any difference at all, but that was some time ago. Since then I've cut down the nic amounts and now I vape 0 nic - when I vape at all. Working on putting that down as well but I'm in no hurry. 

I'm really excited to be a part of this community. I've been vaping for a little while now and have already discovered a few flavors I enjoy, but I'm curious to know what your favorite vape flavors are.
