    What was your first PV, and what is your current set up?

    My first PV was a Smoke Everywhere set. It worked well enough for me to see potential and led me to research further. After landing here I bought a 510 and a 901. These were both much better than the SE. Then I landed on an 801. Loved the flavor and the battery life...but with all these devices...

    I am going to say it: NHALER CARTOMIZERS

    Glad you found what works for you. I think a lot of this is subjective anyway. I will say that I have had the same experience with V4L cartomizers in terms of refilling. I have been using these for about a month and haven't had one die on me yet (ok, except for the ones I mangled myself). I...

    Anyone have pics of how to refill cartomizer safely?

    Nicotine handling...there are tons of threads out there about this so I won't rehash. The opinions on how careful you need to be vary by individual with some just whiping off juice if they spill anything, and other wearing gloves, aprons, and goggles. Power through blackouts. I have several...

    Anyone have pics of how to refill cartomizer safely?

    I will try to help with some written directions since you can't view the videos, and I am sure others will come along. Refilling a cartomizer: Take the cartomizer off of the battery and insert the plug piece. Some also put on an end cap condom for stability while working. Hold the cartomizer...

    I've been unfaithful

    I bought some from another vendor or two as well. I sold them in the classifieds at a loss...Never again. I think the flavor at V4L is better, but I would have tolerated the difference in flavor since I refill mine anyway. I just can't get passed the color coding and labeling. I have so many...

    VK Car Adapter (USB)-not as advertised so will PT work with it?

    It sounds like you got one of the old ones. There was a screw up from China and they sent him 200ma ones instead of the ones needed to power a passthrough. The passthrough requires at least 800ma though I highly recommend 1000ma since I have not tried it on an 800. If you ordered the one from...

    I've developed VADD ...

    I use a caboodles organizer (this one from Amazon). This holds my juices, batteries, cases, tools, etc. I keep my cartomizers in separate little boxes in my desk drawer by strength. I like the unit JenJen has posted, it looks like I can get all my cartomizers into it and organize them a bit...

    Any other Vendors for Cartomizers?

    Just adding my reassurance to you Monkey, you did not offend anyone. We all need help sometimes and that is why we are all here - to help or be helped. I hope you see Steve's note above - ain't he great?

    Help with mixing

    I agree, the vodka is a better choice if you need the thin the liquid out a bit, but you only need a few drops in my experience. Fine print - I rarely mix my juices so take my input for what it's worth. I think there are tons of tips in the DIY forum though if you want to be a mix master! Those...

    New Stock

    I appreciate that you folks listened to the feedback that some had about the logo. I personally love the logos, but hubby will definitely prefer a white one. Now about this emerald green...just glad I haven't placed this week's order yet!

    VK haters in the general discussion threads....

    I also typically add the model designation number as well and I do think this helps folks make the connections. It can get cumbersome though so I only use VK/KR808D-1, rather than VK/KR808D-1/Nebula/E9/Long Totem...:D To be fair, I am not even completely sure that I have all those names right...

    Any other Vendors for Cartomizers?

    I should have also added, if you have become accustomed to the labeling and color coding of VK cartomizers, you will be frustrated by the other ones. All of them that I have purchased come in only brown or black and only have the Mg strength printed on the cartomizer. If you are like me and like...

    How many drops?

    I also agree with Leeshor. My white bottles of liquid from Steve drips monster drops (probably as much as 3 to 1 for most of my other bottles). What you are looking for is saturation with no pooling on top. To prevent yourself from wasting juice and mopping out overfilled carts, when using an...

    No vapor???

    Glad you figured it out Nancy! Let me know if you want to try some 16s, I would be happy to send some your way. If those are still too strong, you can order some 11s.

    Question for you refillers out there...

    I also refill from the mouth piece end. I use a dental pick to remove the white cap and the translucent O ring. Then I drop about 18 drops in while holding the cartomizers at a slight angle. I add a final drop or two to the side that still looks white. I also use the plunger method to be sure I...

    Vapor King Pomegranate 36Mg Cartomizers

    I am so with you! I placed my last order before I got the package including the Pomegranate cartomizers. I got them later that day and ran desperately to my email to try and catch my package before it left V4L to add some more on to the order! Unfortunately I Steve ships so fast I think I missed...

    Any other Vendors for Cartomizers?

    Normally I would agree with you. I think this forum is different though and Steve can spank me later if he disagrees. I think that a lot of folks have found this place to be more like a home and feel more comfortable here than "out there". We don't yet have a model specific forum and we are all...

    Cinnamon???

    Hmmm...I have some of these on the way too. I was looking forward to a more cinnamon roll type flavor. Oh well, with newness always comes a few misses. Steve, you might need to prepare to send me some of those new Almond Joys!

    Christmas in October!

    I don't think there can ever be too many of these. The more we share, the more new folks and lurkers can see how happy we are with vaping and with V4L. I imagine each of these threads is one more gentle push for the folks that are on the fence. Thanks for sharing your experience!
