    Thanks for the freebies x2

    Free samples in my order(s).... Sometimes, they get vaped a bit and tossed, I admit. But other times, I get these gems that I probably would not have tried on my own. First it was the Kola; just tossed in with my order with compliments of the V4L team. I vaped it and loved it. i logged on and...

    Getting bored of fruit flavors.. Who sells good tobacco flavors?

    I just realized that you have the V4L sig and are in Chicago. Have you ever gone over there to get your stuff in person, or do you still mail-order? Just Curious.

    Getting bored of fruit flavors.. Who sells good tobacco flavors?

    Marlboro Lights, me too for 20+ years. With regards to tobacco flavors, I have vaped quite a few from several different vendors. Now my main tobacco vape is 555 (12mg) from MyFreedomSmokes. I does NOT taste like a marlb, which I only realized recently, is a (very) good thing. You may have...

    Wasted money?

    I feel like I have wasted a few bucks myself. Not on a PT, but on other stuff; especially juices. I have bought/tried juices that I never really cared for, even from the first vape. maybe it sounded good on a review, or was well described on a web page. Now, I have bottles of juices that just...

    can we get white premium blanks?

    I tried smilar stickers and they seem to "unstick" fairly easily. Let us know if they work for you please.

    Emergency fix...not so good

    I't be nice if there were local retail vaping stores; like tobacco or wine shops.

    Best Combo...Please Vote...

    I also juice elsewhere; but fill premium cartos (hardcap preferred) and mostly use auto shorties.

    Condom Fill Method

    I'm all about less time and hassle, sounds good to me. I have also added 1 additional step when working with my cartos. I swab the cartos and silicone caps with alcohol. When not in use, I always keep the mouth end of the cartos covered with these silicone caps. In my first month, I caught a...

    Amusing Tip

    I actually have come to rely on an EXTREME version of the spin; specifically when draining a carto with intent to refill with another flavor. As typical, I put the condom partially over the mouth end of a carto, and insert it into the battery bag. This is where it gets weird. Then I...

    Call Me Crazy

    Agreed. I just order 3 boxes of the Kant just because I know they are hardies. I was just reading similar opinions here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/vapor4life/76897-hot-carts.html

    hot carts!

    Unscientific? perhaps, but appreciated nevertheless. I will try this. It just seems kinda "hacky", to have to do this stuff. The hardies just work.

    hot carts!

    Not ciggies, I get that. But I treat the hardcaps and the softies the same, and get different results. I am doing an A/B comparison right now. I have a full 555 carto (harcap premium), and a softtip premium blank filled with the same 555 juice. Each is on a fully charged shortie. They...

    hot carts!

    Can't be a refill issue - I'm getting the same effect on BLANKS. I just got my order yesterday, 3 boxes of premiums (Cowboy, Apple Cinnamon, Blank); all have the soft rubber caps. So far the Cowboy and the Blanks get really hot; uncomfortably hot. So, I have been re-using some Kant...

    Xl pcc?

    A few thoughts: If you go already have a PCC, and you only go through 2-3 carts a day; then do you really need an XL? A regular battery should do you fine all day at that rate; and fit in the PCC. In fact, you could prolly get by with a shortie. The question is, would you still feel...

    An Ode to my Vapor King

    Everyone hates waiting, and I'm just the same The mail is so slow, and the tracking so lame So I spoke to the carrier, a round little man brought with me my dog, and exacted my plan... And now he is great, best in his class because I trained my big dog, to bite his fat ... Early this morning...

    It's official..it's the vaping

    Has anyone tried adding water to their juice? Would that not add humidity (water vapor)?

    Are we in Denial? Just kidding. How much do you smoke? Pack a day? More, Less? Lights? Ultra-Lights? Are you like Bill Clinton, or do you inhale?

    Boil and Refill Technique

    I'm with Skyler on this one.8-o Here's my variation on your technique: Vape a "disposable" cartomizer until dry. Refill with your flavorite (is that a word?) juice. Repeat 3-4x Discard
