Hi! I'm Aurora. ::: waves madly:::

In February, my BFF gave me a disposable hookah for my birthday. I enjoyed it a LITTLE, but preferred my analog cigs. Then I discovered disposable cigs, and enjoyed them a LOT, enough to dump analog completely. The constant battery recharging led me to websites with not only big batteries, but big tanks, big bottles of eliquid, promises of big vapor and big taste.

After brief research on youtube I went with the ego-T, then got the ego-CE5 upgrade, the Hitman passthru, and then got a big fatty 2400 mah battery, and then another cool looking 1300 mah one ... and I LOVE IT SO FREAKIN' MUCH I can hardly contain myself.

Still making mistakes ... I stripped some threads, flooded some tanks, and etc. However ... OMG ... I love this stuff.

Nice to meet you all, glad to have found such an informative and friendly vaping community. ::: hugs all ::::

At work, puffing my Hitman CE5 passthru, in my custom lanyard ecig purse.

Very interesting! Thanks for posting! I'm due to have some blood tests done soon, I'm looking forward to seeing if they're any different since I've switched to vaping!

Yes, I have a 1100 mAh Twist and, although I like it, I much prefer my Spinners, especially for direct dripping. The numbers on the Spinner are so much easier to see so I can figure out how many volts I'm at. The Twist? Not so much. I have to put it under a bright light and hold it juuuuust so so that the numbers might show up. The numbers are etched into the base so it's all the same color of silver. They're both good batteries, it's just easier to see the Spinner's numbers.

Don't feel bad about taking notes. I've got a whole notebook of scribbles myself.

I'm going to be getting my first Twist and my first Spinner with my next order. I'm feelin' pretty fancy about that!

Welcome !!! I promise you will have more flavors than you know of before you know what happened....and gadgets !!!

But why we were having so much fun bouncing between topics. LOL

Thanks for the thread idea and the pictures Steve, they're all amazing!

I got a bit of good reptile news a few minutes ago. I looked outside and saw that one of my box turtles has come out of hibernation. Kinda appropriate for Easter, right? It's always stressful for me until all 5 of them show up again.

Carpet Pythons: Male Irian Jaya (the one in my avatar) Male Striped Ivory Jungle...This pic is when I first got him. He's about 7-feet now, and one of my finest!!! Female Jungle (Will Leary line) Female Diamond x Jungle...we call her Pandora, because you don't want to open het box, and figure out what evil lurks inside, LOL!!!

I'll start with a few of my favorite things: "Splat" - female crested gecko I produced in 2011 "Pumpkin" - female crested gecko I produced in 2011 "Kitten" - my first crestie. Male, and will be paired with the two females above Another good pic of Pumpkin

Ok, everyone.... Just so we can get back to Vaping, I started up a reptile thread in The Lounge. Let's carry on this discussion there!!! Here's the thread:

I'm just starting my "collection". My husband walked by a little while ago and mentioned how much I already have, then saw that I have two vendor windows and VT open on my monitor. I tried to explain "Back ups, and back ups of back ups" to him. He just shook his head and walked away!

heh heh End of that problem.

UPDATE: I've been vaping for over a month now and my wife has jumped on board as well. Been a month without a cig for her and she has more vv batteries than I do already!!

My favorite juice as of now is French vanilla coffee from sweet-vapes. I've been exploring others but always got back to that one. Bout to try some raging b**** from rawr, I've heard good reviews on that. I've tried brass monkey from Kalamazoo and didn't care for it at the time, but after messing with some that were just horrible I might grab another bottle of it and revisit it.

Back ups. And back ups of back ups. You can never have too many!

You can't get better customer service than The Veteran Vaper. You've done your homework well.

The 1100 might be a bit on the long side if you plan to put it into a pocket, especially once you've put the Vivi Nova on it. Just sayin'. My 1100 with the Vivi Nova MINI measures out at 7.25 inches. If the regular Vivi Nova is a little taller and I don't know if it is or not, it could go about 7.5 inches. My 900 mAh Vision Spinner measures at 4.25 inches. With the Vivi Nova mini it would be around 7 inches. With the eGo 650 and the Vivi Nova mini it's 6 inches total.

Whatever you decide to get, you'll love dealing with Brian at the Veteran Vaper. I just got a package from him today. You may see some drama once I tell Jeffb that I got a handwritten note from Brian in my package though!

People on this forum are wonderful and very helpful too. All perversions (virtual and otherwise) aside. Welcome!

For me the boge/tank combo is just a stellar vape. The boge produces very saturated flavor which is delicious for warm flavors such as tobacco, coffee, etc. The vivi nova, when it works has it's benefits such as ease of filling. The heads also seem to last quite awhile so they become very cheap over time. For me a vivi is best for fruity or menthol flavors. It, for me, will never hit the spot for tobacco juices. You may feel different after you try them both out. For an excellent cheap tank check out valley vapes. They have a 3ml economy tank made of polypro for like $8. Great tank, I have a couple. Comes with one prepunched carto too. Great vendor in my experience.

You're both making me anxious to put together my beardie setup! I think I've spent too much money on e-cig stuff though, I'm probably going to have to force myself to wait awhile!

Welcome to VT! Good idea and nice of you to put together a reference of what you have tried and liked!! I'm sure that could benefit those that are looking for that information, I know it would have helped me.

I guess I'm lucky I started out with GreenSmoke. I didn't mind them at the time, I thought they were great. They got me off cigarettes, I'll give them that much. But yes, they are expensive - $17+ for a pack of 5 filled carts!! They really don't last as long as they say, I don't think any of those do.

Thing is...hang around here a while - you'll have this maddening urge to buy, buy, BUY all the different types of *real* e-cigs and the things that go with them!! It's fun - and confusing - at least it is for me. Everyone seems to try several things and be able to find what they really like. I had no idea what I was missing until I bought my first eGo! I often wonder now if I would still not be smoking if all I had was the GreenSmoke.

LOL again, the dragon in the video is to blame. It was so fun to watch him eat...
One more pip... 13 so far and a few more eggs to go. That was a very fertile first clutch for the momma.
In a week they are going to the local store and other homes.

He should...considering how fast the reptile lovers jacked this thread, LOL!!!

Ok, I stopped in today to see the new vape store and I had an excellent time. They carry a whole bunch of supplies from the Totally Wicked line and I got one of these (in black) Novas:
http://www.totallywicked-eliquid.com/products/replacement-coil-systems/replacement-coil-systems/rcs-stv-nova-kit-2-product.html
I also got a Kanger T3 in smoke color. Had to walk away from the Zmax mod, but it was nice to see one there. The juice they carry is flippin' awesome, they make their own juice there. The juice setup is very original. They have a menu like when you go to a restaurant. If you want to sample, they have pre-filled cartos and give you a drip tip to use and keep for free. I tried RY4 but ended up buying the French Vanilla Cafe because it was such a unique flavor. I put it in the Kanger and haven't been able to put it down since... I was correct in the previous post regarding their hours and the people there are uber-friendly. Overall I give them 3 thumbs up and will definately be re-stocking that juice. They said they were purposely waiting to get the online site finished until they first had the store in order. So soon that will be available to anyone out of the area that is curious.

I can't believe how awesome this juice is... wow I can't leave it alone!!!

They are normal, I now have 6 in the tank and 6 more are pipped in the incubator. It must be spring time, our female (the momma) is gravid again!!

:-) YAY reptile lovers!! We have quite a collection. 3 beardies, 1 uromastyx, 1 Savannah monitor, 2 ball pythons and 1 eastern milk snake.

All juice 65/35 pg/vg 12mg. Dripped with Vision Spinner 4v on a 2ohm unbridged Atty. Steeped - Overnight no caps on bottles. Keep in mind my juice bounces across the US in the back of a truck so may be steeped a bit more then yours.

Price and Shipping - The prices are great! That's all i can say. Shipping is fantastic as well. You receive email notifications every step of the way following your order from it being received to your juice shipping. I ordered on Wed 3/20, order was shipped Thu 3/21.

Packaging is good. Child resistant caps. Printed labels with juice specs and manf date, except the sample, which is handwritten. Not a big deal with that as it's probably what do we have extra to give this nice guy who ordered from us at the time they are filling!

Moo Juice - Definitely get a Strawberry Milk taste out of it. If i think about about while vaping it i can almost feel the milk consistently in my mouth. The throat hit isnt that great, but its strawberry milk! Flavor is good, and vapor is on par. Pretty tasty right out of the bottle with the short steep.

Double Apple - Good tart crisp apple taste. Small acidic hit right at the first taste followed by the fresh apple.Throat hit is average, flavor good, another day or so. Vapor is good. Be good to find a Mild-Med Tobacco and make a Applewood!

Peach Tobacco - Well it's peach and not the fresh fruit kind. Almost like Peach Snapple, can almost taste the artificial peach flavoring. The background tobacco taste is nice tho. Hopefully the peach flavoring issue will fade with a little more steeping. Throat hit is small for a tobacco flavor. Vapor is good.

RY4 - Tobacco is very nice, needs more steeping will come back to this one in a few days.

Cantaloupe (Free sample) Its cantaloupe alright. Not much throat hit, again fruit. Flavor is there and vapor is good. Not my cup of tea.

Caramel Candy - Yes! Exactly what it is. Reminds me of the kraft caramel candies. Sweetness and caramelly goodness. Will be a great mixer. Throat is ok and vapor is good.

Overall rating - Thumbs up from me. Not one juice that tasted bad or chemically in anyway. I will order again from Mt baker!

Oh nice, I like those!! I think I need some of those! LOL

You are welcome, Lyrical. The eggs were a surprise when we first found them but I have been breeding Leopard Geckos for years and know exactly what to do when I find eggs. So the incubator did it's job and we will see how many hatch. I have 4 pipped out of like 15 total eggs so far. Glad to see yet another reptile fan here on VT.
