    I am having a dreadful time

    As far as I'm concerned, this thread ain't over until you buy a few Vivi Novas and let us all know what you think of them. Without them - or something "better", like a Penelope, an Odyssseus, a Bulli A2-TM, or a host of other attachments - you're still in the Dark Ages IMO.

    I am having a dreadful time

    No clue; never tried KVB Cinnamint. Atomic Cinnacide from Tasty Vapor is wicked good, but after about 4 months, I OD'ed on it, and am not sure if I could ever vape it long-term again. I'll be trying it soon just to see. It's a little like how cough syrup is now a challenge for me, after...

    I am having a dreadful time

    My advice: 1) Re-think the stock Vivi Nova 2) Read the thread on how to tweak it - something I've found unnecessary 3) Stop blaming the Twist for the clearo 4) Stop beeyatching if you refuse to take good advice 5) Get a bunch of Twists, a bunch of chargers, a bunch of Novas, and a lanyard/trim...

    What are your Vaping Pet Hates ;)

    LOL! Parents, please ... if your son asks for a puppy dog, by all means, PLEASE get him one! LMAO!! And it doesn't really come through on the audio, but the guy really was big, and came within a whisker of buying himself some jail time, and me some hospital time. Regarding the latter, I...

    I am having a dreadful time

    You might want to give Tasty Vapor's "Ultimate Vanilla" a try. It's darn good, and when you get the "Doubler" to go with it , you save huge $$$. I get the 1 oz. 48 mg-strength e-liquid, and the 4 oz. 0-nic "Doubler" of the same flavor for the same price - around $15-16. That way, you get 5...

    I am having a dreadful time

    I'm not clear on something. Are you blaming the Joyetech eGo-C Twist (PV/APV/battery/power unit) for the failure of the clearomizer (attachment) that you happened to be using on it? That would be like blaming the car for a flat tire. (?) Follow-up question: did you ever acquire a single...

    What are your Vaping Pet Hates ;)

    Hey, happy freakin' New Year homies and homettes! OK, let's get the new year started with a bang .... I've got three pet peeves (well, not really "peeves" ... just things that I think the world could do without ....... ) 1) Sociopaths/bullies 2) People who won't even try a "proper" vape 3)...

    What are your Vaping Pet Hates ;)

    I like using abbreviations. I bet you do to. Do you say "ATM", or "Automated Teller Machine"? "TV", or "television"? "Modem", or "modulator/demodulator"? "Gas", or "gasoline"? I do agree with you that special consideration ought to be given to beginners so that "the lingo" is picked up as...

    What are your Vaping Pet Hates ;)

    "Pet peeve", for lack of a more meaningful, less hostile term, concerning not just vaping, but life in general ...... People who "knock" anyone else, for anything .... Seems to me that we're all on the same team, and that squabbling amongst ourselves is costing us the game ......

    What are your Vaping Pet Hates ;)

    By my count, you still have 127 characters to work with. *** Pet peeve: that I still have pet peeves. *** Ignorance can be a real beeyatch too; I have a feeling you reminded him that vapor is not smoke .... then again, perfectly good breath is wasted on some (no offense, Pops, I'm sure...

    People ... can't live with 'em .... can't tase 'em without a really good reason ..... LMAO! Actually, I just forgive 'em .... makes the most sense, and keeps me out of jail ... for the most part ..... :p

    Why the ego c twist is a game changer

    E-Dude, I'll prolly own a Buzz Pro 2 (non-compliant, of course) for many reasons, including that exact one. Other reasons: it's built like a tank, I like to reward cleverness, Buzz is a wildman. In other news - how the hell are ya? :^) *** ChrisD, above (who is absolutely rocking those...

    Why the ego c twist is a game changer

    I have tried replaceable-battery PV's (OK, fine, APV's); VMax, ProVari, e-Power, Woo, Joyetech 18650 mod (love that thing, hardly ever use it) ... and what I use is the Twist. Have you tried "living with" a VV ego-class power unit? If so, what didn't you like about it? If not, please...

    Why the ego c twist is a game changer

    I have three VMax's (I got three of the original "defective" ones before they stopped making them; I like the fact that they "go up to 11" (see: "This is Spinal Tap"). They all sit, as they have since I got my first Twist about four months ago (I have about ten of them). I've owned three...

    What are your Vaping Pet Hates ;)

    Recurring nightmare Pet Peeve: It happened again tonight; two heavy smokers (claiming to be scientifically-minded) who refused to even try vaping because of the prospect of "ruining their health" with propylene glycol. Ouch.

    need help, new, confused and frustrated

    Mitch - Hey, first of all, where us Chilliwack? Love the name. Also, I strongly encourage you to try out a variable voltage eGo-class battery like a Joyetech eGo-C Twist or Vision Spinner with a Vivi Nova tank on it. Great stuff. Not to "replace" anything ... just to try out. Couple of...

    I am having a dreadful time

    Mike, have you ordered the Vivi Novas and Twists/Spinners yet? Again, this is what I would get/have, in addition to anything else you have/want/think you want/feel like getting/falls off a cabbage truck: A bunch of Novas, the more the merrier, heavy on the 3.5ml's maybe. A bunch of eGo-class...
