I'm new to vaping, one week in. Last week I got 2 ego twist batteries, 5 cartos, and an EVOD BCC.

The 2 liquid I got I didn't steep, and they weren't made to order or anything so I don't think it mattered.


Heather's Heavenly Vapes I think makes the e-liquid to order? Do I need to steep?


They just came in the mail today, and right now I have them steeping. Is there a certain period of time they HAVE to steep before I can enjoy them?

Or can I go ahead and start vaping, while letting them steep and they'll just get better?

help me!
Thanks guys,
super

Try them and if you love them, vape them. If not, put them up for a week or so and try them again. You didn't say what you got, but their NETs are more likely to need steeping than the simpler flavors.


Oh, sorry. Another newbie question, what are NETs?

I got 30ml of Blueberry Muffin , 70/30 PG/VG, 15mg nicotine
Mocha Java Smooth, 15ml, 15mg nicotine, 60/40 PG/VG
Pirate's Booty, just 6ml, 18mg nicotine, 70/30 PG VG

NET= Naturally Extracted Tobacco. Meaning these are not synthetic, lab-made tobacco flavors, but flavor infused by various methods using real tobacco(s) to create a typically wonderful, rich, and complex tobacco vape. HHV tobaccos, with a few exceptions (like Heavenly tobacco for instance) are NETs. Legend, Serendipity, Dragonsfire, Sludge, Jiggy, Shadow, all NETs, to name a few.

I recently got some Java as well and couldn't stand it, so I'm giving it a week or so before I try it again.

Well, I'm not going to try any of the three I got, at least for 3 days or so. I know it would probably be a good idea to try BEFORE I steep, so I have an idea beforehand and can adjust accordingly, but Im gonna wait for my kanger protank and new evod bcc to get here first (should be soon).

I have to say, when I took the cap off the mocha java one, it made my whole room smell like it;.....and I have a HUGE room downstairs where i keep my vape stuff. Hehe.

This is my overall experience w. HHV. The sweet/coffee/desert flavors pretty much are what they are right out of the mailbox. The NETs I've tried (Legend, Shadow) need at least a couple weeks (maybe more, but I'm not that patient) to really come together.

I love my Pro Tank & have been using a lot less cartos as of late. Try it the way it is and if it hits a bit harsh, remove 1 of the wicks. I always take one out & works great.

I have to slow down & stop acting like everyday is Christmas!
But to contradict myself, how is the Evod?
Wasn't directed to me but..i absolutely love my EVOD.. i vape like a freight train.. only some slight gurgling but nothing a blow through into a paper towel won't solve.
is the protank as airy as I've been reading?

Since I got my EVODs and my ProTank, My BCCs are collecting dust...

I have found using the beauty ring that comes with it instead of the topper for my eVic makes the draw much richer. I simply love my ProTank. I am still using my EVODs, too, but the ProTank is better.

It is a little airy, but it honestly doesn't bother me the slightest. My smoketech carto tank is pretty much retired now. I read a few posts on this forum that some people block the holes at the bottom to make it less airy. I'm in the freight train club and I love this thing. I would give it a try since there are ways to work around the airiness, but you may not find the need.
