    Looking for a one stop shop.

    I don't know about their e-juice, but: 'Madvapes' sells liquid and the dual-punched DCT-Cartos (I bought 'em but haven't used 'em yet) Might look at 'AltSmoke' too. Edit: I perfer mixing my own e-liquid or I order it from 'GourmetVapor' or 'MyFreedomSmokes'. :vapor:

    Leaking dual coil XL 1.5 cartos...

    They are the flanged 1.5ohm pre-punched from AltSmoke (although I have punched one carto myself with the icemaker thing and it worked well for 2 weeks) .. I just ordered some more of the same from MadVapes (AS was sold out of the 1.5s) I tried two fresh cartos today (out of a new 5-pack) and...

    Leaking dual coil XL 1.5 cartos...

    TY for the reply. ... I really thought it was the 'thin' e-juice I just got from MFS, blew them out and went back to my thick mix and it kept on flooding. Just noticed if I tip the feeder hole up where no liquid covers it, it doesn't flood, so it appears you are correct there. The 'working'...

    Leaking dual coil XL 1.5 cartos...

    First four cartos worked great, now have had two in a row leaking around the holes in the carto (not the tank). Happening whether I am vaping or not. Using my thick 50/50 or thinner juice as well. When it's directly on the SB I have to clean the connection after every hit, at least I can wipe...

    bump evertime you buy something new...

    Bought Two Silver Bullets from a member of the forum (very nice lady) today, great deal and they look great too. Thanks Katy. I bought one for my brother... <parent voice> he will get it if\when he can show some responsibility. i.e. It's hard to charge a PV when he keeps 'forgetting' to pay his...

    Cost of vaping versus smoking

    1 year, 3 months, 21 days $2989.59 smoking \ ~$800 vaping ~11,958 analogs not smoked = Priceless (I have smoked a few packs worth during a time of technical difficulties, but have since gone back to vaping 100%. I have also given up my beloved alcohol, so I'm really savings the money now...

    bump evertime you buy something new...

    Local NW Floridian with severe injuries from exploding ecig battery

    I'm actually vaping more tonight than usual (Silver Bullet - 3100mah 18650s and DCT) ... It 'vents' out through holes around the button :glare:, which would probably be enough to help during the initial leak to have enough time to drop it\throw it. Glad I got the bigger batteries now and reading...

    Local NW Floridian with severe injuries from exploding ecig battery

    I sure hope we all can get the real info about this incident... Learn from it if possible. I just recently bought a SilverBullet and was actually thinking of trying the (RAR123A) 6volt-double stack in the future, but not now though. Just ain't worth it. Prayers for him and family for a speedy...

    CigNot Joye Ego-T and pre-packaged liquid -- Awesome!

    Yay, I just made an order: Stainless Joye eGo Passthru Kit, extra battery, some type-A tanks and extra cones (I like the smaller atty and cone, not sure why, maybe I'm a traditionalist lol.) Have had good dealings with Vicki\CigNot and love the eGo 510. Edit: ooops, Forgot to say: Thank you...

    newbie here...just saying hello

    Welcome I agree with above, I can't believe how easily I was able to quit analogs, but I was coughing up my lungs two or three times a day so I was determined to make it work. I don't miss them at all now and feel like I am ready to start mixing my liquid with less nicotine (down to 18mg or...

    Had to have my dog (best friend of 7 years) put down...

    Thank you and best wishes to all. I'm getting along well and staying busy (or I was) until this cold weather blew in the flu. :blush: We still have the puppy (Dachshund) and a old Pomeranian we are housing for my brother, I don't think I will get another 'mid-sized' (40+lbs.) dog anytime...

    quit zits? did you get them? how long?

    Congrats, I quit cigarettes on the first of November as well. My skin gets really oily at times and vaping is the only thing I can think is the cause. I have only had one 'zit' since quitting analogs it was on my cheek where I have had them before, it's a strange, painful, reoccurring zit, but I...

    Had to have my dog (best friend of 7 years) put down...

    Thank you all. I've gotten over the 'blame game' and I'm slowly getting use to the feeling of not having him around. Each day I feel a little better, less stressed-out about him doing something crazy. :-x I spent a lot of time cleaned up as much of the house as possible, rearranging furniture...

    Had to have my dog (best friend of 7 years) put down...

    Thanks for the hugs and kind words they are very appreciated and sorry to hear about your Dalmatian, normally great dogs. I'm trying not to bash myself about it and remember; even though he often stressed me out, he wanted me to be happy.

    Yet another new guy...

    Like you mentioned, I too was completely ready to quit analogs for good and from the first day I received my 510 Riva I have not smoked one since. It can or will be very hard to make it through the first few weeks, depending on how many 'trigger' moments you have, make sure to read up on how to...
