    Carto HELP!!!! Ikenvape

    Ok, here's the situation. I've been using carto tanks for the last 2-3 years cuz they work and I'm lazy. Don't want to mess with a system that works for me, however, as we all know ... Cartos are becoming hard to find. I recently ordered some from Ikenvape bcuz I read a blog from someone...

    Helping a beginner What's a good tank?

    Thanks to all that replied! tj99959 ... I concur, Provari/carto tank is perfection :) I love it! So many different choices of tanks, MODs, etc.... I just stick with what I know because it works and it works WELL. She went with the Kanger ProTank for her start up tank. Seems easy enough to...

    Helping a beginner What's a good tank?

    Hi all. I've been vaping for a couple years now and I stick with what I know. Provari with Ikenvape carto tank. The end. Boring I know but it works so I'm comfortable with my routine. A friend wants to try vaping so I am loaning her a spare provari mini of mine to see if she likes it...

    Reynolds bill in South Carolina (H 4074) would tax, require license to sell “vapor products”

    Supposed to go testify at the hearing this afternoon. Nervous! Trying to gather information on this as I just found out about it in an email this morning! I'm trying to put together something on paper that I can read ... I hate speaking in public!

    Super Easy DIY Method

    Ok. Seriously going to give this a try. I read this entire thread and I'm in! Question about the menthol. I never smoked menthol cigs but found I love it in ejuice. Watermelon + menthol, and Energy Cow + menthol are two of my favs. What is the difference between the crystals and the...

    Got my ViVi Nova yesterday....

    Thanks to call for clearing that up for me. Sounds like some research is in order! If it's cheaper and better ... I'm in. Just have to learn a little more about it. For now, I'm going to try the rinsing thing agian and see how long I can get out of my next head. This is very informative and...

    Got my ViVi Nova yesterday....

    Okay, this may sound really DUMB but ... where are the coils and what do they look like??? I thought they were inside the atomizer?? You can see them? Is it easier to see them if you remove the plastic cover part? Clearly, I need help. I think I've thrown out many a "head" that was totally...

    1st day of my life (in last 20 years) without a nasty cig!!

    That's awesome! You're doing great! Keep it up. If you can get through just a few short days without a cig (and vape your head off), you're home free. I always tell people, you have to truly WANT to quit for vaping to work completely. It's a personal decision. I tried EVERYTHING, even quit...

    Got my ViVi Nova yesterday....

    I have a question about Vivi Nova's. I have a couple, I use them (the heads) for about a week or so and toss them. I've tried soaking them in Vodka and re-using them but they never seem to vape well after that. That's why I started tossing them. How long do you suggest soaking them? What...

    prive special avaiable for order...

    Would it be difficult to have one made for it? I mean, if you have the extra tube, couldn't you take it somewhere and say "make me one of these in glass/pyrex so it fits this tank? I agree with the plastic comments, I don't use red hot, bananna, etc. and I've never had an issue with a tank...

    I need help!

    When I first started vaping last October, I found that I vaped WAY more than I smoked. If you're only vaping 6mg nic juice ... you need to up the level STAT! I smoked ultra light cigarettes and started out at 24mg because I didn't want the cravings and I stepped it down to 12mg REAL QUICK...

    Your visuals help A LOT!!! I need visuals, I'm new. So they are much appreciated! Although ... the paper/plastic idea does look a little "sketch" hahahaha But if it works, it works. :D

    This Carto Tank STINKS on my Provari!

    That's how I'm running it now. Won't order another one of these! Taking off the bottom collar works but it's LOUD. But it works and I'm happy for it because I don't have a huge supply of tanks and I loaned out a couple for people to try the ecig experience so it's ALL I have right now. I...
