    Moving On from Blu

    I started vaping with Blu, back in 2010, but moved on quickly to a KR808D-1 because of better vapor production and longer lasting batteries. However, I experienced quite a few problems with the KR8's. Connection problems between the battery and the carto, and sometimes KR8 cartos have a foul...

    Analog smell

    I wish I could relate to that but I can't at all. Been trying to quit analogs for the past 2 1/2 years with e-cigs. Analogs have never smelled bad to me. My last analog was January 1st at 12:15 am. I've not had an easy time in the past, but I'm really trying to get through this year analog free.

    What E-Cig holds the title of "World's Smallest"?

    Finally something that makes sense to me. I've been vaping for over 3 years now and I've been extremely turned off by all of the huge mods. Personal vaporizers should be getting SMALLER, not larger. Yes, I understand the power supply problem and that larger batteries equal longer life and higher...

    Any info on Mistic ??? Any Info on METRO?

    I bit the bullet and bought the Metro. It is hands down the WORST e-cigarette I have ever tried.

    Please help Wal-mart stopped selling mistic e-cig

    Well, I'm glad everyone loves the ego. For those of us who want something SMALLER, it's not the right fit at all. I need something I can hold in my mouth while keeping BOTH HANDS on the wheel. An AUTO, NOT A MANUAL. Looks like I'll probably have to go back to the KR808D-1. It's too bad, because...

    Any info on Mistic ??? Any Info on METRO?

    I was a KR808D-1 user for about 2 years. I finally got fed up with the poor quality of cartos and decided to try something new. So I picked up a Mistic e cigarette at Walmart. I liked it better in virtually every respect once I was able to find empty cartos for it. Better vapor production...

    Why do ex-smokers hate us? A psychoanalysis

    In regards to the OP, I think you've hit the nail on the head with your second point. Jealousy has reared it's ugly green head more than a few times in encounters with ex-smokers. I have been belittled for my achievement by snooty holier-than-thou ex-smokers before. "That's cheating." seems to...

    Oh no, I've become one of THEM.

    I'm glad to say that I have never become one of THEM. The smell of cigarette smoke still doesn't bother me, but I must admit the way certain people smell AFTER they have smoked is really gross. It's funny. Even after quitting and vaping full time, my ex-wife (who continued to smoke analogs)...

    Mistic ecig review

    I had been using a KR808D-1 for a few years, but didn't like the connection problems and the problem of horrible taste with certain cartos. I saw a Mistic at Walmart and figured I could afford to try it out for $7.49. I must admit I was rather blown away and switched almost immediately...

    What's your favorite work based TV show?

    I'd have to go with American Restoration. I have always been amazed at seeing someone take an old relic covered in rust and restoring it to the way it was when it was new. To me there is no finer art. Also love Pawn Stars.

    best cartos for volt?? boge, kanger, smok tech, g4, etc...

    After my disapointing experience with Boge and my horrible experience with Kanger, I'm now going with Low resistance cartos similar to the ones sold by Bloog (2.4 - 2.8). I use them with Volt "sealed" shorty batteries and have had no issues thusfar.

    Cartomizers 101 class?

    Okay, time for me to share what I've learned. I only use automatic batters, so If you're using a manual I don't know how much help this will be. The Generation 1 808s are not regulated. The new Generation 2s are. the Gen 1s have a hole in the center post to allow airflow which activates the...

    Does anybody here think V4L is over-priced?

    I haven't had a problem with built up residue since I started cleaning my batteries twice a week. I don't use thick liquid, so that's also helps keep them clean.

    Does anybody here think V4L is over-priced?

    From my experience, I prefer the easier draw. I wasn't sure if the Volts would be a good fit for me because of the "tighter" draw, but since I use low resistance cartos (Bloog style), it makes for a nice easy draw. Bottom line: I have no complaints.

    Bloog and Volt really better?

    I just recently ordered some "sealed" volt autos and have been very happy with them. I have not noticed any issues with the draw. On the contrary, since I am using low resistance cartos (similar to the ones sold by Bloog), the draw is actually much easier than the old Kangers I had been using...

    Brand association with LR cartos?

    I was just wondering if there is a particular brand or manufacturer of the LR cartomizers offered on the website. I can't stop singing their praises enough, but it's hard to tell people about them who are throwing around names like "Kanger" and "Boge". Would love to have as much info as possible...

    Does anybody here think V4L is over-priced?

    I was also aware of this fact. there is no such thing as a sealed auto battery as airflow is required for the switch. That being said, I only have ever shorted out one generation 1 KR8 due to liquid. So for those of us who are careful, the drip resistant autos make our careful filling even...

    New Guy here and new to E-Cigs

    Congratulations and welcome aboard. My advice is to research every time you think you may want something new. Chances are there will be several people who have already tried what your thinking of buying and their opinions may help you decide if it's a wise purchase for you.

    Does anybody here think V4L is over-priced?

    It depends on how popular the juice is. The juice my wife prefers is not very popular. The juice I buy is one of their best sellers. I jst bought some juice from them a few weeks ago. Hers expires in October of this year whereas mine expires in January of 2014.

    Does anybody here think V4L is over-priced?

    I do buy several bottles of liquid at a time because of their high shipping price. It's about the only thing I save up to buy in bulk.
