    Former American Spirit smoker, about to make the switch in one giant swoop... feedback would be appreciated

    Case in point for subjectivity. I agree with everything Bullette said about JC...but their flavor just doesn't agree with my palette. I'm trying to unload mine in the classifieds in fact. They have no shortage of fans though, the flavors are bold and I really wanted to like them. They are one of...

    Former American Spirit smoker, about to make the switch in one giant swoop... feedback would be appreciated

    In addition to what's been said already I'll add this: Juices vary not just by flavor, but by company. Even after you decide you like "mocha" for example, you may love one company's version and hate another. The descriptions don't always match the experience. This is true in a sense for the...

    New flavour ideas

    Don't know you resolved this yet, but they've said they still have the amaretto. Just order something else and make a note on the order that you want amaretto. I was horrified when I went to order more and it was gone.

    New flavour ideas

    Never liked any Banana flavors until this one...it blends perfectly with the KY Premium base! I like sweet cinnamon flavors. An apple pie along the lines of a hybrid cinnamon roll/applewood would be amazing.

    GotVapes PHOENiX RAVENS

    This is working well so far. The slot in the carto basically opens it up to the tank reservoir, without altering the pressure of the system in any way that I can tell. It's similar to the xl in performance, except my wicks and coil are so degraded and it was my last xl coil, but no different...

    GotVapes PHOENiX RAVENS

    I tried this morning to make a Phoenix carto that I could tank using the Phoenix xl innards in a Stallion tube. It worked ok, but I realized I slotted the Stallion incorrectly and it was my last one. I'm 99% certain that if I had another it would be flawless. My point is that it's not that...

    GotVapes PHOENiX RAVENS

    Dan, you guys bring out all kinds of great new products, that's what makes Gotvapes fun. My question is if there would really be any harm in ditching all the preview videos and just releasing the products once you have all your stock ready to go and thoroughly inspected and tested in house...

    This is why I did not file a ticket at the time, although I strongly considered it, and for the most part I agree with you. The changes in the first few Stardusts had virtually no impact on performance or function. However, the changes in the Sleeved Phoenix did. Regarding the current matter...

    No, I just figured it was another disappointing clearo and tossed it to the side. Gotvapes has a clear DOA refund policy on cartos and asks customers to send them back when there are issues, a reasonable and understandable policy. It just struck me as odd when I held off buying the Raven until...

    Honest question here....About a month ago I ordered a sleeved 3ml phoenix. What I got was not the original design. It had been changed. Dan commented as such in a thread about them. I do not like the current version at all and did not get a chance to try the original. If you go to the...

    A lot of vendors rename their products....makes it very confusing, especially with all the clones out there. I think theirs are genuine Joye, but not positive. I actually got mine here, the lowest price I found at the time: Joye Ego, Ego-T, Ego-C The one drawback with the Twist is size. The...

    I might recommend the "Stardust" cartomizer (goes by many other names also) if you were interested in the Ego-T. I prefer others, but tons of people love them. They are a snap to fill, no leaking, you can see your remaining juice, and can color coordinate with your battery if you so choose :p

    Cignot just sells the batteries. The charger, cartos, and juice would be separate. Their prices are middle of the road, but Vicki is AMAZING! I have yet to have better customer service from any other vendor and would highly recommend them. Vapors Choice has the lowest prices I've seen and...

    Torque 56 Bitter Nasty!

    For me, Halo more than any other vendor needs their juices to steep. Some of them undergo DRAMATIC flavor changes in 2 weeks to a month on the shelf. I also agree that finding flavors you like can be a long, grueling process. 8 months in, I've narrowed it down to six, with 40-50 that won't...

    Variable Voltage may or may not be a big deal. A vape that keeps you off analogs is the best vape for you. That said, flavor, warmth, throat hit, and vapor production is immensely different over a voltage range. I have cartos that feel like sucking air on my standard ego batts at 3.4 volts...

    I started with a Ego-T..... The tanks looked so convenient. Then I got it and had nothing but dry hits, fumbled attempts to adjust the wick, and leaking. Keep in mind there are two components to vaping, power and juice delivery. An ego, riva, or ego twist will all provide power to any 510...

    If I'm not mistaken, the Riva is an unregulated battery. That means it comes off the charger around 4.2 volts and drops throughout it's charge. The Ego puts out around 3.4 volts, but maintains it throughout it's charge. The difference between 3.4 and 4.2 using the same carto is significant...

    Also, keep in mind that if you get something like a standard ego, you'll always be looking for resistances to match your preference. If you want a stronger vape, then you'll eventually end up getting something more powerful. If you start with the Twists and find you like 3.4 volts you're...
