    TMI - MTMI (Much too much information)

    Yup - exactly why, when I was dithering about what to get, I settled on the KGO. Which, BTW, isn't that large, about the size of a "Sharpie" pen, if you're familiar with those in Germany. The Volt looks really sweet, too.

    My head is spinning! Help me..you're my only hope!

    I ditto the advice you've already received. I liked my KGO so much I bought a second kit...they come in so many colors it's hard to decide which to get but with two kits I can swap the cones and batteries for a two tone effect. :) I bought mine from here (comes with prefilled cartridges, which I...

    Ms T's Order Status Thread - March 2012 through ?

    I can't wait! Due to a brain fart it appears I didn't order any more Snickerdoodle Cookie but I think this will occupy me for a little while. Your Order Contains: 1 x Banana Fosters Coffee (Bottle Size: 15ml (+$6.50)) 1 x Banana Fosters Coffee (Bottle Size: 10ml (+$3.00)) 1...

    What Flavor Are you Vaping Right Now?

    A mix of Ms T's 30 mg straight orange (very orangey flavour but not at all sweet) and Hoosiers 24 mg Pineapple Juice to make it sweeter.

    How to keep vape stuff organized?

    LOL looks familiar. I started with a small drawer in my office, but outgrew it quickly. Since I usually charge my batteries in the kitchen, I dedicated a kitchen drawer by the charger to vaping supplies. Since it's garage-sale season, I'm having fun finding tiny bags, old tobacco tins and other...

    Flavors....

    Yah, for many people there's a little extra up-front cost in experimenting with different flavors. Most vendors sell small or sample-sized bottles; that cuts costs. I'm going to echo those who like Backwoods Brew (they're on vacation for about another week, unfortunately) and I have totally...

    Hi i totally new to this...yikes

    Welcome fellow RYO'er! I've been doing Golden Virginia/Drum/Jester/Bali Shag for 37 years, about 50 smokes per day. ie, about one pouch per day just for me. Which lately has translated to about $8.00 per day. O.o So....welcome to the forum and spend a couple of days reading here (check the...

    WooHoo! Got my first PV!

    You're going to love your KGO, I have two kits. :) I agree the directions that come with the kit are worthless for newbies; I remember being baffled too. You can find good tutorials all over YouTube for anything e-cig related. The "condom" is the flexible plastic cap that probably came with...

    newbie:what should i buy first? "Answer-is-here"

    To be honest, were I still a rank newbie, the OP would confuse me even more - leaves the impression you have to buy one of everything separately. Which would be a baffling process, for someone who doesn't have a good sense of what a cartomizer is! I think most new vapers - in my case certainly...

    I need help. Just got my KGO 1100 mah and the cartomizers taste like a chemical.

    Have not a clue....my impression is that DCV is a reputable company; never dealt with them personally but see plenty of positive references to them on ECF. My thought is - if you have a problem with a service or product, contact the provider FIRST and give them a chance to make good or not...

    Did we really Quit?

    Absolutely this too - mind you we in the modern world breathe in all sorts of contaminants with every breath we take. Less would be better but absent allergies I'm thinking PG/VG, some herb juice and food grade flavorings simply isn't that scary compared to all the industrial outgassing we're...

    I need help. Just got my KGO 1100 mah and the cartomizers taste like a chemical.

    Is it possible to get a whole box of bad cartos? I'd call DCV and ask if they've had other complaints, maybe.

    I need help. Just got my KGO 1100 mah and the cartomizers taste like a chemical.

    Yes - what kind of cartos? The KGO kits I've bought come with pre-filled cartridges that taste nasty even when re-filled with something better. Edit: Sorry, we posted at the same time. Asked and answered (and I am sorry I can't be more helpful.)

    I need help. Just got my KGO 1100 mah and the cartomizers taste like a chemical.

    What juice are you using? I use the condom method to fill cartos, followed by adding drops as needed and have never had this problem. But some juices taste a little funky at first.

    Did we really Quit?

    I've smoked heavily for 37 years and during that time (crazy I know) have run 10Ks, been an avid hiker and occasional biker, pluws I have a very physically demanding job. I've been vaping (and still smoking the occasional cigarette) for about 10 weeks and my energy level and endurance is...

    Help, please

    Well as a hard-core heavy smoker, I'm at 24 mg - 30 is OK but quite harsh. Not familiar with your set-ups but with my KGO, I hear some "snap crackle pop" when I hit the button and it heats up - if that's what you're talking about yes it's normal. :)

    Help, please

    What nicotine level are you using? Higher nic levels make me cough unless I'm careful. Also....if you've quit smoking cigarettes, remember that coughing is a very common symptom of quitting smoking! It's your body's attempt to start ridding itself of crap in your lungs. Or something. I've quit...

    Recommend sweet ejuice.

    I haven't tried that many vendors yet but have been absolutely delighted with every one of the sweet/candy/bakery flavors I've gotten so far from Ms T's bakery; the flavors taste very much like their namesakes (Snickerdoodle Cookie, Cinnamon Roll, Peanut butter & Banana. etc): Ms T's Bakery...

    Review: Fried peanut butter and banana, aka "Elvis Special."

    Haven't tried the banana nut bread....but I did order another batch, included several peanut putter/chocolatey flavors. Can't wait! I've gotten my neighbor into vaping and he wanted to try hazelnut so I got that too. I'm not sure I'd like banana unless it was "cut" by the PB or something...
