Hi Fran, Well if you like KickBass, chances are I might too. Seems those who love Ms T have similar tastes. My order has shipped, so fingers crossed it makes it to me. I read on her site that she does use more VG than PG, but won't disclose the ratio. I often wonder if this is what produces the creamy kind of taste? Many say VG reduces the flavour, so she must be using bucket loads of flavouring. Don't care, I love her stuff.

Hi Dayvape, Yep, they've had long enough to steep now. I gave them another try last night and still pretty tasteless. It has to be ME and not the juice. So many people love Dayna's stuff - they can't all be wrong. I am just a flavour pig I think! Yep, trial and error and lots of $$$ I have found. I can't wait to start mixing my own. That could be a disaster though! LOL

Don't beat yourself up! Smoking has/had a HUGE hold on all of us. I know people who don't vape and gave up the sticks years ago and even now they say they feel like a smoke every now and then. I guess we still have vaping to 'get us through', so to speak. When I first began vaping, I was EXTREMELY proud and amazed at the fact that I immediately dropped from a very heavy smoker, down to just 2 a day. The very first one in the morning and the last one at night. I never felt like one through the day at all. Then I fell off the vaping wagon for various reasons and went back to the horrid things full time for a few months. This time around, whilst I am enjoying vaping (when it just works!), I have not managed to get myself down to those 2 sticks a day. I still have an analogue more often than I'd rather and I am very disappointed in myself. But I have figured that if I push on I will kick these horrible nasty critters eventually and that's my goal. Geez, you are doing far better than me, so just pat yourself on the back and remember these cravings will come and go for years perhaps. Ignore the little buggers and show them you are stronger than they are.

This is exactly how I vape and I've had many people say I am more addicted to my PV than I was to the fags. Not true! I'm over trying to explain, so no longer bother. Yeah, I do have the thing hanging from my mouth more often than not. But I am on a much lower nic level and I never actually have a 'vaping session' as long as what it would take me to smoke a cigarette. That's just the way it goes I guess.

This was rather obvious from the get-go, but to be fair... perhaps she didn't think things out before making her post? But seriously!.... sniffing juice? I just can't seem to get past that. LOLOLOL!!!

Hi Morfeeus, Thanks for that! I have looked at this supplier a couple of times and heard good things about their juices. Living in Australia means I don't have to wait too long for my stuff to steep.... it's usually in transit for around 2 weeks, sometimes not quite that long. I have placed another order with Ms T and am waiting to see if it gets through ( threats, bans etc in my state right now ) and if it does, I will give KickBass a go then. Am really keen to try mixing my own but again, I will wait to see if my stuff gets through customs before placing more orders. Do you have any thoughts on the stuff that is now being used to replace Diacetyl? Acetoin and Acetyl Propionly?.... Just my luck that it's the custardy type flavours that I happen to like which contain this stuff. Happy Vaping Morfeeus!

LOL! Looks like you've been well and truly told! I agree... who are you to judge? Heck.... you SNIFF juice? Ummmm, who has the real problem here?

Thanks Kitsune, much appreciated!

Thanks for being so helpful Kitsune! Yes, I know talk of bans are rife, and have been for ages. I just feel that I need to be prepared in the event that customs doesn't let my orders through. The threat seems bigger at the moment. I'm going to spend some time later tonight reading up on some of the great mixing threads and see if I can understand the process a little further. Just think right now I really want to get myself some nic, then I can go from there. I LOVE this forum.... always people ready to jump in, without judgment and help those less experienced!

Thanks so much Erika! BoXelder seem to be popular on one of the Aussie forums. I think they also sell PG & VG. Another dumb sounding question..... Are PG and VG just that? Is there any particular bad product that I need to be mindful of? Like if I buy milk anywhere, it's just milk. I have no idea what I need to do, so just finding out as much as I can before I jump in and buy what I may need. Then to learn all about mixing.

Hey, Apparently the importation of any nicotine products will be banned in my state in Oz. I didn't watch the article myself, but it is concerning. Media sensationalism? Scare tactics? Just not sure and now feel like I want to try and be prepared. The threat of an 8K fine and customs keeping my stuff is enough to make me antsy! I have zero experience in mixing. Have only ever used Geoff's doublers. Pretty sure I am able to get VG and PG here. I know I can also get flavours - we have a great supplier who is a licensed distributor of Perfume Apprentices gear, plus a few others. I'm looking for advice on where to get nic. Actually I'd also get PG and VG from the States too I think. Once I know exactly what I'd need to get, then I'll start looking into DIY mixing. All I really know right now is that it's not the best idea to get 100mg nic. What do I get? How much do I get? How long can it be stored? Hope I'm not bombarding you guys with too many questions!...... EDIT: I forgot to ask... most importantly..... who is the best supplier of QUALITY stuff? Thanks guys.

I have to say the Tank sent me right back to cartos. But then, I am hard to please. It's all about the flavour for me, and then the TH. Hope you are able to find what makes you happy. It can be a never ending adventure really.

I really wanted to also TroopX. Such a pity. I guess this is one of the consequences of being an extremely heavy smoker for many years.

Um DOH!!!!! I am blaming the fact that I hadn't long been out of bed! LOL

Thanks for your replies guys. It can be so frustrating at times huh? Nice to know I'm not the only one. I sometimes think it's just me behaving like a brat and tell myself to just get the hell over it, but it persists. I think the most difficult thing for me is being in Australia. Shipping isn't cheap and to continue trying suppliers gets a bit pricey at times, but that's just how it goes. I was crazy about TV juices for a long time too. Again, great service and prices. Geoff rocks. But I still keep craving Ms T! I received an email this morning from them and they think they've solved the credit card issues, so I'll try to place another order. Fran - you are right. I ordered 4 bottles from Ms T last time. Should have ordered when I got down to 2. So keen to try her German Chocolate Cake. Have you any idea of her VG?PG ratio? Her juice seems a tad thicker than others. I've not yet had any gunking problems, but I know lots of people do with too much VG. Are you using her juice in cartos? I do. Also, who is VT? Aimme - Thanks for the positive. I wasn't aware I had been given a neg. As I said, I am in no way at all bagging Sweet Vapes. I just thought there was a good chance this juice might satisfy my silly tastes. It's obviously ME and not the supplier. I would still happily recommend them, and as I said, Dayna is just lovely and I will probably place another order for some different flavours. Asleep - thanks for you opinion. Taste really is subjective. For anyone new to vaping..... PLEASE don't let my comments put you off Sweet Vapes! I am just one person, and these are just my thoughts. And I guess it was dumb on my behalf to expect one vendor's juice to taste like anothers.

I know so many of you guys are mad crazy Sweep Vapes fans, which is why I bit the bullet and placed an order. Vanilla Custard, Starbuckets Latte and Blueberry Shortcake were my choices. Can't say I'm feeling the love for any of them. Really disappointed to be honest. I am one of those who has dead taste buds, so really thought that given the rave reviews here, Sweet Vapes might put me in heaven. My absolute all time fav vape is Ms T's Vanilla Custard.... can't get enough of that stuff. It's just that there always seems to be issues with placing orders on her site. Have to always end up emailing what I want. Something to do with being an O/S customer apparently. Anyway, I was SO hoping that the Sweet Vapes Vanilla Custard would be as good as Ms T's. Not so. It certainly smells very similar, but the flavour is just not there. I even ordered double flavour. Grrr! So annoyed at my stupid taste buds!!! I am in no way bagging Sweet Vapes! The shipping was great, considering we had 5 days of Easter holidays here. Prices Ok, and Dayna was lovely to do business with. No complaints there whatsoever. I know a couple of you have rotten taste buds like myself. Nanna I think is one? Can anyone recommend a truly sweet/strong flavour? Also, I very rarely see any Ms T fans around. Anyone out there?

Thanks Morpheeus. Starting to think my taste buds are playing funny buggers. Carto probs now. What a drama queen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I recently had the most EXCELLENT 48 hrs of vaping that I've had in 2 years and now it's all gone to cr@p again. I'll survive.

Thanks! Will give that a try.

Shipping will cost me more than what the bottle of juice is worth. Been there, done that.

Hi Elayna, A 'cool, dark place' basically means away from heat and out of direct sunlight. A dark cupboard at room temp is just fine. Definitely no fridge or any kind of cooling system.

It's a pity I live so far from you! I have a full bottle of Geoff's blend here that I don't like. Would have been happy to pass it on to you if shipping didn't cost a bomb.

Thanks for being so helpful guys, much appreciated. I must have spoke too soon though........... it's been a temperamental **** today, so have switched back to cartos for now. I'm still pretty new to cartos ( have always been an atty & cart gal) and seem to find they are giving far more taste at the moment than the tank. Mind you, yesterday I was enjoying the tank! Go figure!

Slowly starting to like my tank better now. Just curious if anyone can tell me how long the atties last? How long before you find you need to clean/change them out? How long before they seem to die completely? How many atties do you have/use? I only got the one to start out with, in case i didn't like it. Pretty expensive compared to the normal 510 atties, but would you treat them just the same way? Many thanks.

Yay for you! Awesome.

I have been using these on and off for about 3 weeks now and I have to say I FAR prefer regular cartos. While these are great for seeing how much juice you have (which I do like), I have found that MOST of my juices don't taste as good as they do in regular cartos. Too many times they've given that burnt and also chemical taste. It's also a real pain to top off.... having to use the syringe is always a messy process and not always convenient. I've also found a few of them broke. The plastic came away from the metal at the thread end and the whole lot fell apart..... everything came out of the plastic tube! I was able to put them back together and they still worked, but I just find them too unreliable, so they are now kept for emergencies only. Also, there is a disclaimer that says they can melt/burn easily due to the thin plastic of which they are made.
