I didnt actually get anything new but a buddy of mine asked me to pick out a kit for him and i got: 2x 1300 mAh Vision Spinners 2x Kanger EVOD tanks with replacement heads 1 Black carrying case 1 eGo Charger 1 eGo lanyard. i got it all for under $100. I think thats a great started kit!

I have learned from experience to go with Brian at the Veteran Vapor because is only sells the real deal and if you are unhappy for any reason he will work with you to correct it. I had bought a bunch of CE4s and CE5s from a "good deal site". They sent me all duds. Now that would never happen with Brian, but if it did he would send you 10 working ones. Can you tell, Brian is my hero.

Update.. Dad went from 2 packs a day down to a pack every two days. After smoking for 60 years I think that's pretty good.

He moved out of their house and filed for a restraining order the following day.

I rest my case. Actually some of it is pretty good and some not so good. A person just needs to try them all and decide what floats your boat. I would just not put all my eggs in one basket and run the risk of having nothing to vape until the mailperson delivers the next shipment.

im the same as joe. I can kill an 800mAh batt in about 3 hours and i go through 3-4ml of juice everyday.... unless im dripping... them im more in the neighborhood of say... 5-7ml lol!

Buncha lightweights lol I get at most 5 hrs. from a 650 twist and ~10 hrs. from my 1300 mah spinners. I go through 4-5 mls. of juice a day,sometimes more.

I searched, but couldn't find this topic anywhere. I apologize if it already exists. This is my everyday carry (EDC): The small case on the left goes in my pocket. It contains: 1 x 900 mAh Vision Spinner 2 x T2 1 x T3S 1 x usb ego charger 1 x small bottle of juice The large case on the right usually stays in my car, unless it's very hot outside. It contains the following: 4 x isopropyl alcohol wipes (from first aid kit) 3 - 4 x paperclips (example: pull the center posts up when the backup batteries won't charge, NOT THE Spinners, a few other uses) 1 x usb wall charger 4 x q-tip (I moisten them with the isopropyl alcohol wipes to clean battery/charge threads) 1 x bread tie 2 x T3S replacement heads 2 x T2 replacement heads 1 x Iclear 16 replacement head 1 x iclear 16 (backup to the backups) 1 x backup usb ego charger 2 x ego 650 mAh batteries (these were my original batteries, now just backups) 1 x 2600 mAh rechargable battery pack ( used for charging cell phones. I was thinking of using it as a last resort to charge my Spinners if there was no other available power source. I'm not 100% sure how safe it is to use this for that purpose. ...maybe somebody with experience will chime in) 1 x micro usb cable (used to charge battery pack) Also pictured is a T3S on a Vision Spinner 900 that I keep attached to a lanyard. Well, that's my EDC. Now that I see it written down, I feel like it's a little overkill. ....better safe than sorry.

I went to visit my dad today and he's been vaping a bit for two weeks or so. He's 72 and been a smoker for around 60 years so he's been weaning himself off of analogs. He bought a regular ego kit last year (batts, Atty, cartridge and cone). It lasted about 2 months and it wasn't working for him. He recently went to the Dr and got a clean bill of health except for the start of emphysema and high BP. So now he's all about it. This time he got an ego with CE5's kit and 100 mils of 0 nic juice. He's excited and can't wait to quit analogs. I'm so proud of him. He said he wants to be around another 20 years so he's go to do something to quit.

Not sure that animal exists. You might also want to read in reference to the "dry herb" talk.

Found this a while ago on a forum. Very easy to reference when you want your ohms as exact as possible. This shows your ohms per inch of different gauge wires.

Right now I have 5 full clearos in my case and I have not had one leak since I stopped using CE4s. They stay full and are in my case, in my pocket, on my desk. Never should a clearo leak when filled just because it is laying sideways. I have a T2 and a T3S of my tobacco flavor in my case all week that never get touched until the weekend when I am drinking on the lake. In the picture I posted of my case every clearo is full. What I meant by this is the T2s seem to have a flavor drop off after about a half a tank so I topped them off every night at home and put them back in my case to use. With the T3S the taste is the same from the first draw till I have nothing but droplets in the bottom. Even though the T3S are harder to fill, the fact that I only have to do it every third day as opposed to every night more than make up the difference.

Do you fill them up and put them in your case or do you bring them along and fill them up as you need them? I have never carried them already filled up because I thought they would leak out in my case being bounced around in my purse. That would be nice though if all you have to do is take it out of the case and put it on the battery.

Todd did a review on one. They should be out soon.

Uma, that is a cute little bag. I wanted to tell you about this great bag I found on Amazon just in case you want something bigger. It is actually a makeup bag. It is Bare Essentials and can you believe it is only $5.99 and free shipping. It holds at least 5 50ml bottles, of juice,along with other stuff in one compartment and has rings on one side that was made to put makeup brushes in but is great for holding all kinds of stuff. I liked it so much I just ordered another one because my inability to control buying all the cool things I see and hear about on here has filled that one up. There is a pink one too but it is smaller and costs a little more. it would be great for you guys too if you can get over having a makeup bag. LOL

Sounds like my first couple weeks lol, and my wifes first month or so. It is different, you are not burning a combustible plant matter wrapped in paper and laced with chemicals. It is fairly pure. I will say I also started with 50-50 because I didnt know the difference, both my wife and I found our satisfaction at a 24mg level nic and a 70%pg-30%vg blend. I would go 80-20 if VapeDudes offered it. That's what I get from Sweet-Vapes and love that mixture.

Welcome to Vapor Talk, sounds like your on the right track

I would just politely pull over, open the door, put her on the curb, and drive away. I thought my wife was bad when we have to leave the lake earlier than 5 or 6 on Sunday after being out all weekend without touching dry ground. I feel lucky now lol.

Hang in there answer a few questions and things will get figured out.

So if they are different whats wrong with having both? You need backups, doncha???

With clearos buy name brand only, I had some no name clearos from a shop about a hour from me and they suck. Either stopped working in a matter of days or they leaked like a water main with a blow out

Personally I have not used them but other members here use them and speak good of them.

questions.....did you just quit smoking? how long have you been vaping? what nicotine strength are you using? what type of cartomizer/clearomizer are you using? what type of battery? we'll help you get things sorted out !

A friend just got a Vision Victory clearomizer and sold me on it. Went to my local brick and mortar and...went a little nuts. One red and two clear ones jumped into the bag all by themselves. The Vision Victory's review will follow soon. He now stocks Vision Spinners in 900 and 1300 mAh in all colors. I've been looking at the forest green and burgundy ones but could never find them online. Um...those two (900 mAh) followed me home. Hey, I couldn't decide between the two colors. The green one had a squishy button so I took it back and got it replaced. BIG MISTAKE -- walking back into that store. Lol. One of the guys working the store started talking about a Vision Eternity RBA. Been looking at various RBA for awhile now. He explained how to recoil and showed me a few tricks and...it followed me home too. *sighs*

I bought mine from Bucky's for $28.33 shipped. It arrived really fast, too.

awesome! I almost bought that one... then i got talked out of it! lol! i will be picking one up then since it seems to get rave reviews!

well what percentages are you mixing at? i have tried to let some of them steep and it works a little bit but most of the time i have found that my flavors dont usually come through unless they are potent enough. I like the stronger flavors though.

I may have to try the T3s. I totally disdain the copy T3's I had as they leaked and were not precise fitting. Mine both stopped working at all. The T3S is name brand I guess?

I've been using the T2 for about 2 weeks now and love them. I just got a few T3Ss yesterday and think I love them more. I seem to be burning through less juice with the T3S. You are absolutely right though, they both have their own set of pro and cons. I had the original T3, but they just wouldn't stop leaking. It was very frustrating.

I've always been a paranoid pessimist. I over pack for every situation.

Another thing I am liking about the T3S is not having to top off my liquids each night. I pretty much switch up my flavors throughout the day primarily between 3 flavors. At the rate I vape and the fact that the liquid tastes the same from top to bottom I now only fill tanks every other or every third day. This makes up for the little bit of extra work it is to fill the T3S. With the T2s the flavor dropoff at a half a tank is significant enough I was topping them off every night when I got home from work.

I vape at around 8 to 10 watts so I too go through juice and batts at an alarming rate

2x 30ml bottles Druid's breath 12mg 70/30 from Greenman and 2 x smaller travel kits! Smaller 650mah batteries and clearo's with chargers and case. I know why they sent two chargers now. One of them didnt work! Nice padded case tho. I can fit my iTastevv/vw in it also!

Totally makes sense. That is why I love the T3S even with the occasional small leaks because I feel like I get all the flavor, if not more, than the T2s produce and the cooler vape a bottom coil unit provides without the metallic taste I get in the KPT. To me, the T3S is about the same unit as the KPT just not made of glass and metal. All the "working parts" are in the same place and work in exactly the same way. The first 1/8th to 1/4th of a tank on a top coil unit may have a tiny amount more flavor but not appreciable in my experience.

Oooh, good to hear... My first spinner just shipped this morning!

Vision Spinner 1300MAH. I started using it Sunday morning about 10am and it just blinked dead literally 5 minutes ago. I feel like I vape a lot, but maybe I don't vape as much as I thought. I see some saying theirs last all day, but mine last 2-3 days.

I started using the one I am using now Sunday at the lake and it still is performing fully right now. I am amazed how long these things last.

I second tam, I know when my twist is going near dead. Vapor production gets weaker and weaker once it nears quarter charge.

Personally I'm not fond of the dct, they can be messy to fill, lose juice when the carto goes bad because you have to remove it completely from the tank along with all juice. The vivi nova or kanger protank is less hassle, less messy, easier to maintain. As far as the battery I use a ego c twist also variable voltage. Can't really give advice on the battery you are asking about because I know nothing about it.

Before you started vaping did you put the battery on a charger and let it fully charge? If you did then I'd say get in contact with the vendor and get a new one. If not, put it on the charger and make sure it's topped up. Even though they come partially charged it might not have enough oomph to work at its best. Just a thought.

Well, if you don't have any takers I sure would love to have it. I love mine, even better then my Mini Nova and I thought that was impossible. I have never tried the T2s and the T3s that you are talking about. But that is some great information.

Hi, Synther. My double-unit kit came with a sample pack of favors. There are eight, 3.7ml bottles, and the favors are as follows: Cool Mint, Tropical Breeze, Coffee & Cream, Mandarin Mango, Cherry Slush, Berry Pomegrante, Vanilla Cupcake and USA Tobacco. I smoked my last cigarette, a little earlier in the day, and then went about filling my eGo Twist. I powered it on, gave it one pull, and powered it back down. I just wanted to see that it WAS a functioning unit. I have to say that I was quite impressed. The flavor was a bit different from what I have been used to, from analogs, but that was to be expected. I got a good hit, but there was an aftertaste left in my mouth, which wasn't too bad, but something else that I will have to get used to. The flavor that I tried was the USA Tobacco one, due to thinking that it would be the closest to what I had already been inhaling. I had also bought a larger bottle of the USA Tobacco flavor, but will eventually get around to trying all of the flavors out. However, no complaints. I know that change requires transitioning, and that is a passage which can (in THIS situation) more easily be traveled when focus is kept on the extreme benefits to be realized.

To me, the KPT is the worst ranked of all the delivery devices I have tried based on taste alone. I cant review it because of how much I didn't like it, and since most everyone here loves them I am marking it up to personal taste although the person that sent it to me agrees it makes the juice taste like liquid metal. I am most likely in the vast minority and this is why I didn't mention it in this review. I was so excited when it came in the mail, and was a gift from another member and friend here. When I first loaded it with liquid I thought maybe it was just the "new" taste. Then I changed coils and alcohol-Vodka washed it and put in a new coil and the same taste was there at the same level. Its a metallic taste, probably due to the metal mouthpiece, but am going to try and trade my KPT and 10 coils for something of equal value at some point and if I cant most likely I will give it away. I offered it back to the person that gave it to me but they also feel like it gives liquid a, and I quote, "vile" metallic taste and didn't want it back. It has been sitting in a shot glass on my bar for a couple weeks now. It works, looks great, doesn't leak, and is easy to use but if you cannot stand the way it makes things taste its not really fair to review it imo.

Actually, atomizers predate cartomizers by quite some time, but they did have a lot to do with the birth of cartomizers. The very first e cigs were fed by poly-filled cartridges that you filled with e-liquid and slid into the end of an atomizer. The saturated poly-fill in the cartridge pressed against a stainless steel "bridge" above the atomizer's coil to transfer the juice into the atty's internal wick & coil. It didn't take long before some more adventurous early vapers tried dripping juice straight onto the atomizer's coil (bypassing the use of the cartridge) and found it to be quite tasty. Later, the atomizer & cartridge were combined into one unit for convenience and the cartomizer was born, but due to the excellent flavor it provides, the "dripping" trend remains alive (and very popular) to this very day. Sorry...I got off topic.

Patrica dear, let me know if those juices end up being sweet and usable. I usually want candy sweet but never get anywhere near it.

Excellent info, Uma.
