NorthernGirl Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I've discovered I'm not really loving vaping the fruity flavors I've bought so far. They're ok, but just, meh. So last night I was desperate to find somewhere around me that sold the stuff so I could get some creamy, sweet stuff (that'll teach me to place an order before a holiday weekend). Then it hit me.... the head shops!!! There's one here in my town. I called this morning and he said he unfortunately had to stop carrying the stuff because the demand in the area wasn't high enough to make carrying e cig supplies cost effective for him.... bummer. That's me... always late to the party lol. Google to the rescue. There's another head shop about 45 minutes south of me. They carry Dekang juice, but what I don't like is there is really no customization. Their liquids are either 100% PG or 100% VG. The VG only comes in "high" nic strength. The PG comes in "high" or "Low" but only certain bottle sizes are available at the different strengths. They also don't specify what mg's "High" and "low" are. I'm gonna give them a call to find out what the story is before I brave all the dang leaf peepers and drive down there and cross my fingers that whoever is working the shop today actually knows what they're talking about. Gotta get my vanilla fix lol. Another thing that bothered my was their website was saying that VG offers more throat hit than PG... I thought it was the other way around? The fruity stuff is ok when I first start vaping for the day, but by the end of the day my mouth is just kinda irritated and blech lol. All of my juice is a 50/50 blend, so I'm thinking there's something in the fruit flavoring itself that doesn't agree with me. I'll just keep slugging down water I guess. I was soooo close to going to the store to buy a pack of analogs last night. Then I remembered that since I started vaping, I can't stand the smell. Probably won't like the taste very much either. Wish me luck! Uma and kitsune 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcquinn Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 When I first started I didn't care much for the tobacco flavors and used exclusivly Dekang frooty flavors.I found out I needed 2 atties or cartos going at a time with different flavors and switched off through the day.VG makes more vapor,other than that I like PG or a blend.Dekang low is usually 11mg or 6 mg. kitsune 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernGirl Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Just got off the phone with the shop. He said the high is 18mg (which is what I'm vaping now) and the low is 11mg. He couldn't tell me whether it was PG or VG though. He seems to know a little about vaping, but not like the fine people here Think I'm going for a ride today It's a little expensive, but I figure the $20 or so I'm gonna spend on juice is still cheaper than buying analogs for the next week until my order comes in. Not to mention it's worth it for me to avoid the step backwards in my whole quit smoking thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I believe Dekang's standard mix is 80/20 Christopher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernGirl Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Well, I'm back. The bottles don't say whether it's PG or VG or a mix. I can tell you it's very watery, so that leads me to believe it's either 100% PG or at least a large percentage of it. Got in the car, emptied the orange cream out of my clearo into a napkin and started vaping the vanilla on the way home. Haven't really been able to taste it but I'm going to clean out my spare clearo and try it in that. I also bought a 10 ml bottle of chocolate... smells like a tootsie roll. The experience itself was funny as hell lol. They keep the e-juice in the "18 and over only" room... you know, with the smoking accessories that are 'meant for tobacco use only.' So, they card me as soon as I walk in. The room is packed so I find myself waiting for a spot to open up at the counter... standing there between a giant rack of ...ehem, adult toys, on one side and a rack of several flavored 'things' on the other lol. I'm not a prude, but I do blush pretty easy. Needless to say, I couldn't wait to get my juice and get out of there lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitsune Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 What an adventure !!! Overall the dekang flavors are pretty mild (for me anyway), but they really make a good base for mixing. If you need to spice up your vanilla....you can use vanilla extract (french vanilla is good too), add a few drops to your bottle, shake well and vape. There are better brands of flavoring out there (online), but for a quick fix, grocery store flavors can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernGirl Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 Thanks for the idea kitsune. The vanilla really doesn't have much flavor, so I just might try it. I do kinda like the chocolate. It's nice and mellow -really does taste kind of like a tootsie roll. I got my shipping notice from the vapor room so I should have my order by Thursday.
