  1. We need a little more info to point you in the right direction but this may help. There are several different classes: Mods: modifiable variable voltage models fall within that price range Vamo, Joyetech eVic but these are more for advanced users and allow just about any type system Cartridge, Tank, Clearomizers, Cartomizers...etc. But they are big in size and not at all like a cigarette in appearance. They provide the best vapor production and control over taste, vapor and system choices. Cartridge type systems: Joyetech eGo-C or eCab about 40 - 80 bucks these will provide a cooler vapor and work good as a common starter kit but these though smaller are not cigarette size either. They are inexpensive to maintain and operate and you use bottled e-liquid and fill and refill small cartridges. Smaller size cigarette types: Joyetech eRoll are an excellent starter kit good for medium smokers and they are pretty fashionable with the mobile battery charging case which looks a bit like the iPhone and keeps the cigarette charged while not in use. These have the closest feel in size and weight to a real cigarette that I have tried so far. They produce great vapor for such a small device and really only downfall is small battery which may not last long enough for heavy smokers but I don't hear any complaints with these so far. Clearomizers systems: Vision CE4's are common get a couple Joyetech eGo twist or vision spinner batteries and basic charger and some Vision CE4s or a Mini Vivi nova and you're good to go. These provide rich warmer vapor and have tanks that store enough e-liquid to last the day and are very common among e-cig users. They do occasionally leak, give a burnt taste if you get a bum one but overall these are good my wife uses these daily. These are not recommended for thicker vg based e-liquids because the wicks have some trouble absorbing the liquid if it is too thick. 50/50 60/40 mixes work well. A lot of this is available right here in the Vapor Talk store There are so many systems and types that its really personal preference. You may only find what is best for you with a bit of trial and error.
  2. Try some Marshmallow believe it or not it does help some, EM or cotton candy is good to reduce tartness only a few drops or Mike is right it taste chemically for lack of a better word. Distilled water can go either way it surely reduces burnt taste if your having a problem with that but sometimes it can go the other way and create harshness.
  3. ohms law love it...I also have an electrical background and ohms law is so fitting to this. I believe there are actually some charts floating around that will show the intersecting points between voltage and resistance versus the sweet spot in taste. I'll see if I can find it again...and post it.
  4. I also have seen various ohm readings in different clearomizers, cartos etc that are all supposed to be the same, Using the wattage setting might actually help in these cases because it should attempt to maintain the desired current output as long as its only subtle differences in the resistances. I believe this to be the advantage of using wattage over the voltage setting on your mods, giving you a little better control but thats a whole other topic PG and VG ratio will always make a difference but once you settle on a ratio its a constant and should be something you can adjust for.
  5. because I no longer have to ask for a smoking room at the hotel that smells nasty because it actually taste good because i don't have to paint my house as often because my pets will live longer now
  6. They have soft caps that you can use in place of the hard caps that come with the ego t cartridges. You simply buy a pack of these then use a small screw driver and pop out the original hard cap and replace it with the small soft caps. These seal much better and should cut down on the leaking.
  7. We are into chocolates, caramels, peppermint and as of late I am kinda liking an apple mix
  8. Welcome to the forums if you have questions let us know.
  9. No need to get a new one if its still working for you just keep them clean and replace the coils once in a while
  10. It Looks like a great kit though, these are no name brand products so its hard to say if the quality is there. Look for a real Vision Kit or get Joyetech Batteries and a Charger and use them with Vision CE4 Rebuildable Clearomizers. We tried a lot of different ce4 clearomizers and batteries but there really is a difference with the name brands.
  11. I know it will screw in as i just tried it but I don't have one filled with e-liquid to test if it will vape ok. We have used standard atomizers with them and they work fine so I don't see why not but its not a great connection. Get yourself either a joyetech twist or spinner battery and an adapter cone for a finished look and you'll be sitting pretty and the variable voltage will allow you to tweak the vapor and flavor a bit.
  12. Haha, glad I didn't fall for that one. But heres a techinical answer if you care: The nicotine level listed for e-liquid is the number of milligrams of nicotine per milliliter in the E-Liquid. That means a 10ml bottle of 24mg nicotine e-liquid would have 240mg of nicotine in it (24mg x 10ml). Likewise, a 30ml bottle of 24mg e-liquid would have 720mg of nicotine in it (24mg x 30ml). Different brands of cigarettes vary in terms of their nicotine content. Normally nicotine constitutes approximately 0.6-3.0% of dry weight of tobacco in a cigarette. Obviously a longer 100ml cigarette has more nicotine in it than a standard or king size 84ml cigarette. For the most part, though, here is, for example, the amount of nicotine that is in a typical 84ml tobacco cigarette: If you smoke Regular cigarettes, like a Marlboro Red, for instance, there are approximately 1.2mg of nicotine in each cigarette, or 24mg of nicotine per pack (1.2mg x 20 cigarettes). If you smoke Light cigarettes, like a Marlboro Light, for instance, there are approximately 0.7mg of nicotine in each cigarette, or 14mg of nicotine per pack (0.7mg x 20 cigarettes). If you smoke Ultra Light cigarettes, like a Marlboro Ultra Light, for instance, there are approximately 0.5mg of nicotine in each cigarette, or 10mg of nicotine per pack (0.5mg x 20 cigarettes). When you refill your e-cartridges with e-liquid, you may need to know how much nicotine is contained in your refilling e-liquid. There are approximately 20 drops of e-liquid per milliliter. So, using 24mg nicotine e-liquid once again as an example, there would be 1.2mg of nicotine per drop (24mg/20 drops). So, if you put three drops of e-liquid onto a e-cartridge (or directly onto the atomizer for those of you that direct-drip), that means you will be taking in 3.6mg of nicotine from the time you start vaping until you top off again.
  13. Your Welcome, Of course thats just information we have acquired over the years from reading and researching this on forums and online. There are different schools of thought so you will find some variations on the above and quite a bit more information as you read through different things. There is a lot of uncharted territory when it comes to DIY what is good to use and not. There are some good sites for recipes one is called the Vape Book here: http://www.thevapebook.com/ It's actually quite fun to start making some of your own flavors and cost effective. There are a number of good shops online selling the right stuff and everything you need to successfully do this. Good Luck
  14. Ok first off not all PG and VG is created equal it took us months of trying all different types until we found the ones that actually taste right and have no additional additives. Some of the VG brands out there can be sourced from the Jatropha Plant which can be seriously dangerous see the link below . http://www.fda.gov/InternationalPrograms/InternationalCommunications/ucm311479.htm You should only use a specific PG from Dow company as it dosent contain Diethlyene Glycol You should only use a specific VG from Procter and Gamble as these are sourced from palm plants only and will not cause peanut allergies. You use Sucralose as the sweetener because its not effected by the heat of vaping and dosent change into something else when heated. It exits the body the same way it goes in and will not effect your blood sugar. No one know if any of this stuff is safe to vape but this is a common sweetener that nearly everyone uses and has used for a long time See the link below: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sucralose You should only use water souluble flavors from reputable flavor companies who are aware that people are using these flavors for vaping and have made sure to remove diacetyl and related diketone and / or are indicating which ones have which so you can avoid them. Also they should be freely willing to answer your questions and have nothing to hide Read this article it explains all about it: http://shop.perfumersapprentice.com/flavorsworkshop/custard.html Read the safety section here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacetyl You should never exceed 25% flavor concentrations (preferably 5%-10%) and its recommended not to exceed 24mg of nicotine in any of your mixes. Never vape anything oil based it will collect in your lung tissue and cause damage. If any of your mixes make you cough or gag or cause severe sore throat you should toss it out and not use it. Stay away from that flavor as you may have an allergic reation to it. Hope this all help you and others
  15. Were not allowed to make any other claims other than it being an alternative thats why you see so many disclaimers on everyones sites. The FDA came down hard on Johnsons Creek some time ago because they had reviews that stated it helped them quit not even stuff they wrote themselves.
