    Noob interested in trying carto tank. Thick VG juices.

    I've been vaping a few months now. I've been using clearos on my Twists and I just don't seem to get quite as much flavor as I would like most of the time. Probably the best I've tried is a Splitfire but the latest heads I got have a funky flavor and the wicks started coming apart. The CE3s are...

    Question about a local vendor. Is this how nic juice is normally made?

    Pardon me, but I'm a newbie and I don't do any DIY at all. I recently heard several strong recommendations for a local vendor. Not sure if it's ok to post a link to them, but they had a blog post about their ingredients and here's a snippet: So I was curious if people here know how the nic...

    Phoenix XL, thick juice and syringes question.

    I'm a fan of VG juices. I got my new Phoenix XLs yesterday and so far, I'm a fan. The flavor is really clean all the way through. My only issue so far is getting my Boba's into the syringe. It hardly pulls into the syringe if I use the needle tip. Without the tip, I can take the top off the...

    Vivi vs. Mini Vivi

    I have a few Mini Vivis and I do like them but I rarely get truly great hits of flavor. I've improved matters a bit by fluffing and trimming the wicks by 1cm. I'm wondering if anyone has tried both and if there's a noticeable flavor difference between the regular Vivi and the Mini. Of if...

    Virgin Vapors Organic Kona Velvet Milkshake

    I prefer to vape VG but I've been struggling to get truly flavorful juices. Most of the things I've tried either have little flavor at all, or there's a little at the front and it just dies out. And even when there's a little there at the beginning, after a couple puffs, I can't really taste...

    Ultrasonic Jewelry Cleaners

    I read a suggestion over on the new members forum about cleaning juice-holding components in an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner. This seems like it has the potential to be a simple way to keep my clearos fresh. I was just looking for some more widespread feedback on this. Do a lot of folks do this...

    How careful do I need to be with clearos to avoid leaks

    Just got my rig today. I've got a Twist with a Vision Ego on it. I'm also considering a mini Vivi Nova. I was reading the descriptions over at Virgin Vapor and they said that the Vision is sealed at both ends and leak proof and the Vivi was 'virtually' leak proof. How true is this? Am I pretty...

    Where have you been all my life?

    OMG. My Twist just came in the mail. I'm a total noob. This is my first vape. I've never tried any other e-cig. I'm generally a sporadic smoker. I love nicotine. I just don't love all the other junk it comes with so I don't smoke as often as I would like. I've just had a few pulls on this and I...

    More Newbie QuestionsL Smell

    So I was going through youtube videos yesterday and watched a bunch of PBrusardos (sp?). They were so helpful. In one of his videos, he mentioned how maple flavored juice left a residual smell, so he was particularly conscientious about vaping them where the smell might disturb other people...

    Best rig for VG?

    So I've been wanting to try an e-cigarette and I've seen many helpful recommendations but I have one question I haven't found much about. I'm pretty sure I will want to do VG (or mostly VG) juice. I keep hearing that it's thicker and some vaporizers have problems with it. Is there a tried and...
