  1. I screwed up. Yep, in the holiday chaos, I didn't realize I needed to order juice. I have placed an order that will be here sometime next week, but I'll be out of juice by Saturday. Can anyone recommend a supplier for an overnight or 2 day shipment? I am usually the queen of thrift, but this time I'm not worried about cost, just speed.

  2. It was time to stock up on supplies so I decided to give Forever Vapor a try. I ordered 4 eGo-T XL batteries, some matching cones, and a couple of new chargers. I placed my order after 7 pm on the 15th, and my stuff was here today. I have NEVER had an order from China show up so fast! Everything was there, my package was in good shape, and my new batteries are happily dangling from their chargers...

    Great prices + fast shipping = happy me. Nice job Forever Vapor, I will definitely be a repeat customer :)

  3. I did, but I don't like it. It burns up my cartomizers like crazy, it took me a couple of weeks to figure out what the problem was...

    I ended up buying some from the health food store I was getting it from before, problem solved. Now I have a gallon of VG and nothing to do with it :/

  4. This year the whole family (21 of us) is going out for Thanksgiving dinner... our first time. Lord help the servers, lol. Then later everyone is bringing a dessert to my mom's so we can pig out some more :)

    I'm a vegetarian, so most of my Thanksgiving day consists of guarding my plate from my grandma & aunts, who spend THEIR day trying to convince me that I should "try a bite" of the turkey. I love those women, but if so much as a mince of meat touches my plate, someone's getting a fork in the nose! ;)

    Hope everyone has a great day with their family, friends, or coworkers...

  5. I use my cartos till they're dead, cuz I'm cheap, lol. BUT... I hate the way the flavor deteriorates, the longer you use the carto, the worst your juice tastes. I have been using vodka to clean them, but I think I stumbled on a better method. I have been simply putting 4 drops of vodka in my carto once a day, usually first thing in the morning. Leave it in there, refill, vape. So far I have experienced very little drop off in the flavor or the vapor. I generally top off once every hour or so, but only use the vodka once a day.

    Just thought I'd put this up, it might be something that works out for others too...

  6. I alternate between 2 cartos, each on its own tornado battery, & I use them for about a week. I guess that would be roughly 3 1/2 days each. I do that cuz I like to alternate between 2 dif flavors & I hate switching out the carto & between the 2 I don't have to change batteries the whole day. I haven't burnt one up since I first started using them, I make sure not to vape them dry, it only took once, yuck! btw, I popped in here to answer cuz I saw the ? in my twitter feed :)

  7. I just vaped the last of my Johnson Creek spiced apple cider, which is only sold seasonally. I have seen several places that carry apple cinnamon but haven't seen any apple cider. Does anyone here know where I can find some? It makes a good sitting-around-the-campfire-drinking-a-cold-one vape.

  8. I'm glad I stumbled on this thread! I wanted to order from the VT store but couldn't so I went ahead & ordered from ENS. 55 cartos, shipped out just hours after I ordered :)

    I don't order anything ecig related anymore without checking the forums here first... I love this place.

  9. These cartos are very "airy" meaning that while the flow of air is very good, the vapor can be somewhat light unless you really concentrate on taking a slow and gentle pull. On the very bottom of the atty is a vent on the poitive connector that is quite large. This is where the air is coming from (in addition to the holes on the sides of the connector). What I did was plug this with (unchewed) chewing gum, just enough to cover the hole. This resulted in a much thicker vapor and similar draw to a standard 510.

    OH! great idea w/the gum, I'm gonna try that... I love the cartos on my Tornado w/the cone, but on my 510 & passthrough sometimes it's like sucking on air - frustrating when you want a couple of fast nicotine hits between errands or on break.

  10. As some of you know, I won NeRo9k's createvapor url contest last week :) He shipped on the 28th & it arrived on the 1st, very fast... I won a 510 starter kit & 5 bottles of juice, but much to my surprise there were a whole bunch of extra's throw in too!

    Create Vapor has definitely made my list of suppliers to order from, thank you :)

  11. Thanks for the welcome everyone!

    Also wrote a couple guides on another forum about the care and use of the Joye510 and an awesome cart mod called PTB Made Easy.

    last month I started an luxury ecig carrying case e-store called VapeBoxz.com.

    ahh, that's where I've seen you! Those carrying cases are beautiful!

  12. Oh wow! I totally blew off hours of study time today to do that (anything to get out of homework) but I honestly didn't think I had a chance.

    I just got home from class & I'm lazing in bed posting from my phone but I'll PM as soon as I get back on PC

    *insert happy dance here*

  13. I think someone has had success cleaning the filler and reusing the carto's a while longer ,I think they used Everclear or Vodka.I suppose if you are one who replaces atties frequently these would be a good deal ,for us cheapskates who use our atties as long as possible they are not really cost effective.I am using it on my 18650 battery at the moment.

    :) I am the cheapskate who cleaned mine with vodka, I posted about it in this thread:

    Whats In There?

  14. That was both inspiring and amusing :) Congrats on making it thru the craving, I can tell you that after 13 months there are still times I want to light up an analog, but they are very few and far between now. As soon as I smell one the craving goes away.

    I totally relate to your feelings about the passthrough, I've only had mine 2 weeks and I can't believe I survived all this time without it!

  15. I haven't killed one yet! I thought I burnt one but decided to try cleaning it before I tossed it. I soaked it for a couple hrs in some Absolute, blew it out & let it dry overnight, then filled it... it's vaping like brand new, no burnt taste at all. I cleaned my other one the same way cuz it was getting hard to draw on and got the same result, vapes like new.

    Mine have the glued in caps but I used the boiling water method to pry them off so I can swipe them a couple times a day with mouthwash, I was worried about germs. I've been using the same 2 cartomizers since the 12th, so I'm on day 13 with them.

    Keeping them filled seems to be the key to long life for these. I'm using tiny 3.75ml glass dropper bottles from eliquidplanet to carry my liquid in, and the dropper tip is small enough to fit in the hole & makes refilling really easy. I just use 1 to 1 & 1/2 droppers of liquid whenever the vapor production seems to die down. No mess!

  16. Yesterday, a work day, my new tornado battery lasted me 16 hrs... that's an hour and a half driving time, an hour lunch/breaks, and 13 1/2 hrs of vaping between dinner and shopping. I put the carto on at 5am and it finally blinked out on me shortly after 9pm while I was watching tv. I'm impressed!

    I decided to be harsh with the second one today, I got almost 7 hrs of pretty much constant vaping off it before it died out. Vapor production only fell off right at the very end, I'd say about half an hour before it died out. IMO it works great with the cartomizers, but since I've never used any thing other than cartos, I really can't make a comparison.
