    I have that problem all the time. I order a juice once it's great the second it's completely changed. IMHO not all vendors are consistent making their mixes... It makes me nuts!

    Good job little grasshopper. Menthol juice really does a great job adding that missing zip from other flavors!

    I can't believe a customer has to register at a forum before they can get help in returning the product.

    I received the product today and it's all corroded!!!

    I don't see anything on the store site that relays how to return the product, no print out return slip, nothing but to register here.

    I won't be buying again and I do expect a full refund. Perhaps I should call my credit card company to deny the charge.

    Absolutely horrible site, horrible product, horrible service.

    Ok so I just have to know what's doing in your PRIVATE forum???


    I've been meditating on this a for while and have come up with a theory.

    Oh no, It's not a nice one. I've seen those bouncers outside the door. Ive watched the foot traffic. I even tried getting in this morning and was told I haven't paid the man yet. So I know it can't be all nice nice in there.
    I just haven't decided what the business is........Illegal gambling, orgies, booze, loud music, fight clubs, easy women, human trafficking, I just can't figure out your angle. However, I am certain that the cash is being used to cover up the fact your hiding Elvis.

    That's my story and I'm stickn to it!

    I mix all my useless juices that just don't work with the random great ones I come across. I've had really good luck doing it too.
    I just tried goodphropets "samplers" 30 mls for $6 and got several good juices. Maybe hit them up.

    I'll try to make it short......

    3 am sometime last September, Hubby was sitting on the couch watching TV when hears. TWHAK on our front door. So he pops it open sees the egg, and hears a bunch of kids down the block.
    So he goes and throws his camo gear on and gets all sneaky....
    He starts following them down the street, slinking behind cars and garages, trying to close some ground on them. When they spot him (he's kinda of a big guy) and he figures he'll have a little fun with the kids... So he starts shuffling his feet real loud, snorting and breathing real heavy and walking kind of crazy. Just really looking like a horror movie freak. LOL
    They take off running for their lives, splitting up in every direction, but my guy he doesn't give up. No way he chases 1 kid 2 more blocks and grabs him by his shirt collar.
    Drug the poor kid back to the house and threatens him with waking up his crazy evil wife that will eat him for dinner if he didn't clean up the mess. LOL yes he meant me. Well when I got up this kid was finishing washing the entire front of my house, siding, shutters, doors, Windexing all of my windows and picking up some candy wrappers on my front lawn.... All at 430 am, LOL He about started crying when he saw me come out. I told him I wouldn't turn him into the police since he cleaned up my house, but never come around here again!

    Hahaha the power of being grown up.

    Yes, I'm sure Hubby could have gotten in trouble for grabbing the kid, but it was hell of funny to watch this punk clean my house, to see the fear in his eyes when he saw me, and hear Hubby tell the story.

    Makes us chuckle every time lol.

    Yes, the ones who wash hundreds of cartos and atties and spend hours bringing them back to life, just to save a few bucks!

    I have a good money saver. Many of you know i have lots of kids and that means lots of laundry. I was spending $20-30 a month in laundry detergent before i learned how to make my own. Here's what you need

    1 bar fels naptha or zote soap
    1 cup borax
    1 cup washing soda
    5 gallon bucket

    Grate soap (circular grater like the ones they use at olive garden work the best)
    Put soap and enough water to cover it in a saucepan and heat on low stirring occassionally until soap is dissolved
    Put 1 cup borax and 1 cup washing soda in your 5 gallon bucket and add dissolved soap. Fill with hot water and stir to mix. Voila! 5 gallons of detergent for under $2!

    Hi Morf, Thank you for sharing.

    My name is Sharon and I am a vapeaholic.

    I wake up every morning swearing that I will not buy more juice, attys, batteries, cartomizers, or cartridges. Not even if they are 50% off. The first thing I do, once my feet hit the ground, is to check my order status in hopes that at least one of my orders will come that day. I check the forum to see if anyone has posted a thread about a sale at one of the 15 vendors I deal with. Or if someone posted a thread about a new devise I just can't live without. Somewhere in all of this I manage to make a cup of coffee and let the dog out to take care of his business. I also check COV and GotVapes to see if the MAP Tank, clearomizers, or Fluxomizers (by some strange chance) are back in stock. Just checking of course, not that I am going to buy anything because I have make a promise to myself not to buy anything else!!!! Then, someone from Timbucktoo, starts a thread about the best ????? ever. Just out of curiosity, I go to the mentioned website, just to check it out. At that point I lose all my will power. I have to have it, its only $???. Thats not too much, I tell myself as I try and remember where I hid my credit card yesterday. Oops, I forgot the dog outside. Run and get him. Now I remember where the card is. In the oven. Seemed like a good place to hide the card, its not like I use the oven anymore. Who has time??? Between tracking packages, reading posts, checking web sites, deciding what juice I am going to vape next, and filling the juice vaping container of choice! The dog starting barking, I look at the clock, it's the mailman. Heaven help the dog or the cat if they get in my way as I dash for the mailbox. YES, there is a package there. I feel my head starting to spin, quick get the box cutters! Aww, its the 50 cartos I ordered. Aren't they beautiful!!! I must get my storage container out and rearrange everything to the 50 cartos I just got in, plus the 20 I already had, will fit perfectly in their designated spot. Then I sit and look at all my vaping supplies. I am a happy vapor!!! Oh, my coffee is cold. What time is it? Noon??? No wonder I am hungry. But wait, I was in the middle of ordering XYZ when the mail man came. I must finish that first. Oops my tank is empty, what do I want to vape now? Let me go get my two large plastic containers of juices out of the cool dark closet. Hummmm, one large container is filled with all 30ml of juices, the other misc. size containers of juices. So many to choice from. Ok, I've got it. Let me fill up this puppy!!! Mentioning puppy, did I feed the dog???? First things first, fill the tank with juice, then go feed the dog. Its been a few minutes since I checked my emails. I must see if I got any emails regarding vaping. My daughter comes home from school, she stands at the kitchen door just staring at me. How was your day honey?? Fine she says, along with "have you done anything today besides your daily vaping routine"??? Well, I did let the dog out and fed him, you act like I've done nothing all day!!!!

    I think everyone get the picture. The Gods honest truth, I don't want to change a thing about it. I just want to say that I do!!! I pray to my Higher Power to help me find the perfect vaping devise, the most perfect way to vaporize my absolute favorite juice and still have money left over for my living expenses. Do you think there is hope for me!!!!!!!

    Beans reacted to Howiroll in Affordable E-Smoke   
    Welcome to VT. I haven't been a non-smoker that long, but I vouch for the eGo. Before the eGo, I wanted to to look more stylish and have a device that was about the size of a real cig. I went with Blu and hated it. 4 different prefilled cartomizers to choose from and I didn't care for the flavor of any of them. I didn't want the hassle of filling my own cartridges. I didn't want to spend time learning 'dripping', mixing flavors, DIY juice, or all the other fancy terms that are foreign to a non-vaper. However I wanted to quit smoking more than all of the other 'not wants'. I gave it up after a week seeing the short battery life, weak throat hit, feeling like it was doing virtually nothing for my cravings of cigs.

    I got the eGo and didn't look back. Refilling cartridges is easy. Choosing and mixing flavors is great. I thought I would only like cartos, but I'm one of the few on here that doesn't like them. There are youtube videos for anything you want to try. There are the forums for any questions that you might have. If you really want to quit smoking and not waste any money on a stepping-stone type product, get a 510 or an eGo. Good luck to you and welcome to the community.

    Beans reacted to egoluvr in Struggling With Direct Dripping/carts/ Or Cartos?   
    Spent all nite testing this out. I am crossing my fingers that this will help those that are struggling. This example uses 510 fittings but would probably work for other models as well just adjust your supplies according to your model.

    What you will need -other than your e-cig (PV) of course:

    working 510 standard resistance atty (not tested on LR'S)

    * drip tip

    * blue foam filler - your only going to need a tiny square of this - you want it cut to about the size of the opening on your atty (or M&M candy) only square- no need to make it round

    * your juice of choice

    * pair of tweezers


    Directions:

    * attach the atty to your PV

    * using the tweezers gently place the square of blue foam directly down on to the bridge(the peice that sticks up) of the atty.

    * squeeze 3-4 drops of liquid onto the blue foam

    * pop on your drip tip - and vape

    TIPS:

    1. be gentle on the first draw or two- this way you can avoid taking any liquid into your mouth if you put a little too much on the filler, likewise if it was not enough you can avoid a huge harsh hit if the atty is too dry.

    2. to re fill simply place 2-3 thru your drip tip which will work down to the blue foam whenever you start to loose flavor


    Notes: Awesome flavor and vapor production, hits much more consistently than DD without the foam, better flavor then using carts, chance of flooding the atty greatly reduced.

    The foam does not burn or stick to the atty after doing this method all night.

    Flavor changes are simple - use the tweezers to take out the foam -squeeze with a napkin, tissue , or paper towel, replace and do the same process with your new flavor.


    ***** I sincerly hope this helps someone - if the method your using now is working well no reason to try this, but if your struggling please give it a try and let me know if it worked for you.

    Yep, She won't be in pain anymore or starved for love. Umm, I've got this picture going on in my head, Mike Todd, Eddie Fisher, and Richard Burton meeting Liz at the Pearly Gates. All three men standing there with their arms crossed on their chest and each have one foot tapping. Then Liz walks through the gate, puts on a devilish smile and says "How have you gotten by this long without me?". She throws an air kiss to all three and says "Well, who is going to show me around?".

    I tell ya, I think its going to be a neck to neck between Todd and Burton! I guess we are just going to have to wait to find out "the rest of the story".

    No problems, I want you to succeed!

    1. Always have backups. The Atty may last you a day or a month. You can just never know.
    2. Vapor Renu sells juice 30 mls for $7 Their TH throat hit isn't strong but higher nic levels tend to give better TH. I don't know how much you smoked. Me 1-2 PPD 27 years. I use 24 mg nic my self. Also to get a better TH. Put it in your mouth, push the button for 2 seconds then draw into your mouth slowly for 5-7 seconds release button then inhale into your lungs. This greatly helps.
    3. Yes, you should be fine. However you may want to invest in an extra charger. Mine seem to break after a month or so. Back up of everything is very important for success. If your charger breaks it ma take a week to replace. Then your back to the nasty sticks.
    4. I prefer cartomizers myself. I have several tank set ups, however the flavor isn't the same for me. What you need to understand is that what works for some doesn't for others. I have tried attys and carts like you have and hated them. The tank is ehe as far as I'm concerned, but other people swear for by them. I worship my Boge cartomizers but other members can't get them to work well enough to keep buying. It is all subjective.

    Remember your on a journey and have to figure out what works best for you. It may seem pricey at first and very confusing, but once you find what works, it can all be found cheaply.

    The Boge cartomizer is a name brand, I like them some don't. I get mine from Vapor Kings their link is on the front page.

    I have a hard time my self finding a juice with great TH. Try reading the juice reviews, that may lead you to something you like. I get the best TH juices at my local shop. They are expensive but when I need that kick. Other wise I get the rest of my juice at Vapor Renu, however many think throat hit is lacking from them. I agree, but their prices are really good, and Im cheap.

    Congrats on the quit! I know what a challenge it is.

    Hi birdievk, Your talking about Polly fiber / filler. You can get it at the craft stores, I have blue filler too. You can find that at the pet store in the aquarium area.It's all very inexpensive.

    As far as I understand the filler goes bad quickly (2-4) fillings, but you can throw it out and add your own. The carts are plastic and can be rinsed and reused indefinitely as far as I know. Are you refilling your carts? How often you change or refill all depends on how much you vape. I find that I vape a lot more than I smoked. You may find the same.

    If cost is an issue like it is with many of us, there are a lot of great companies with very low prices. As soon as you get your method down and know what you like you can find just about everything you need for cheap. Just let us know what your looking for, and we can help you with that.
    Good luck and please let us know if you have more questions.
