    G6 Mini-tank

    I wouldn't say that the G6 mini tanks are much like the Triton tanks, however, they both perform well. They are both top coil clearomizers, however the Triton tank has replaceable coils, and at $12.50 for a 5 pack from Halo, that makes the Triton tank an economic choice. Sometimes though I...

    Recharging a Triton Battery

    Doesn't matter, you can charge the battery whether it is "off" or "on". It does not affect the length of time to charge either as best I can tell.

    Coupon?

    I am hardly wealthy and like to save a buck as much as the next guy, but if the coupon code doesn't work I can always decide if the price then is too high or not. I am a new Halo customer, but from what I have already bought, and how they appear to operate, I wish I knew about them before I...

    Getting a Triton? What setup?

    I have the Triton 900mah battery with 2 of the Triton tanks, charger, small cone, and blank G6 cartomizers. I am going to add to this as I go along. I like the cartomizers with the cone, to make an easier "out and about" solution since I carry it in my shirt pocket. Nice thing is even the...

    Triton tanks

    I have found that having the coil screwed in snug...but not too tight makes a noticeable difference in performance. This is the good/bad to having replaceable coils and not unique to the Triton tank. Once I found the right touch between snug vs tight, they have been very, very good.

    Best alternative to blu cigs?

    Although a PCC is not an accessory, I would recommend the Halo G6. Much better battery than blu, and although you can start as easy as you want with prefilled cartomizers, you can step up to manual batteries, fill your own cartomizers, and even a decent little clearomizer. You can even stay...

    Pre-Steeping? My rant!

    I do not disagree with the OP's gripe. Ejuice is a unique product in that you purchase it, and then have to wait until it is ready to be consumed. However, the domestic ejuice industry is primarily made of very small vendors with limited resources. The reason that you do not have to steep...

    Moving up but want to keet it small.

    Starlight 1818, a few thoughts? Although the eRoll is intriguing, there are a few gotcha's that kept me away from this: 1. The 90mah batteries. If you are more than a casual vaper, you will by necessity be charging the hell out of them. I can't see the life-span of these batteries being...

    What would you say your experience level is?

    I achieved the level of "Neanderthal", but plan to stop at "Cro Magnon" level. I do not smoke at all...I vape. So I am already a happy, successful Neanderthal! I am planning to evolve to the stage of getting a device that allows me to experiment more with different ejuice...something with a...

    I think i am addicted to more then the nicotine.

    I agree with the "don't stress/over-think this" attitude. Everyone reacts different...and different is only human, right? For me, I HAD to quit cold-turkey, but that has always been a part of my make up. You may well fare better transitioning between smoking and vaping, ideally slowly increasing...

    Mentor Network

    I do like the idea. I think that it has to be kept extraordinarily simple and accessible in approach. I literally started out when I spoke with a worker at my office, in the elavator, on the way to a freezing-cold smoke break, and she told me that she went to an "electronic cigarette". I...

    New And Hurting

    Wow. Some excellent responses and points here! I had my last "analog" on Jan 25th, a 59 yr old, 2 PAD smoker. For me, I wanted a cigalike that was the closest thing to the "act' of smoking. Like many, I started with an under-powered solution that although it kept me off smoking, it was not...

    prefering tobacco, drinks or fruits flavoring?

    Tobacco variations for the most part, not so much direct "cigarette, or Marlboro style", more like a pipe-tobacco taste. I am also partial to vanilla. The only fruit-flavor that I have tried is cherry (I like cherries after all), but it is simply too sweet and cloying for me to enjoy vaping. I...

    Vaping on a Budget.....

    You're welcome! Maybe if the money isn't a deal breaker both might be a solution. I agree with your concerns. There sadly are a lot of inadequate cig-a-like brands out there. My first attempt, as for many, was blu...and although it wasn't terrible, the inadequate battery strength and...

    Is vaping really healthier?

    I do not know the potential dangers to vaping...and there may be some. Nothing wrong with studying this and I feel that there should be serious, quality long-term studies...but these are things that I know are different since vaping and not smoking cigarettes (2 pack a day guy, 59 years old)...

    Vaping on a Budget.....

    I am late to this thread...and I hope I don't rub folks wrong here, but I think my perspective on this still has some validity. I am a 59 year old, U.S. Army retired guy. Smoked on and off...mostly on, all my adult life. I do get the "vaping as a hobby/activity" versus "vaping as in terms of...

    using my pv in public??

    Vaping in public doesn't bother me any more than smoking did, however, I generally do not vape in places where I would not smoke, such as a restaurant or in a store. Certainly part of it is that since I began vaping to replace smoking, I kind of transfer the same feelings or sensibility that I...

    Question about Blu cartos being stale

    Although I am not sure that they are actually "stale", that is a good description of some of the blu carts that I've used. Unlike many in this forum, I still "like" blu, but the batteries just were taking too much of a beating from a 2 pack a day smoker. I still use my blu on occasion however...

    After 45 Years!!!!

    Congratulations! I have had some success in the past quitting cigarettes, but have always found myself sooner or later back to smoking. Although fairly new to vaping, it is the first time that I have been able to replace my smoking habit, with a similar, but relatively healthy habit. I think...

    Do cartomizers "re-fresh" after sitting a bit?

    Thank you! I was not sure if it was just my imagination or not! Makes sense.
