    It used to be that any and all sweet juice gagged me within 5 minutes of vaping it. I don't know if it's because I now have multiple pv's with multiple flavors but I have been reaching for desert flavors more and more. My ADV is still simple tobaccos DIY from VZ, french pipe, black and mild...

    I figure this topic deserves it's own thread... I have an ERA, a chinese DID, and a Smok Vivi tank. I have yet to setup the latter two, I have to build the mod to run them first :D. The ERA bottomfeeder has changed the way I vape. It takes a little getting used to but It's wicked awesome...
