    replacement source for V4L's "USA" line? esp. "Stogie" & "No.7"

    Well, after many months of vaping, in May/June I finally settled on my main "go-to" juices. They are "No.7" and "Stogie" from Vapor4Life's USA line. Well, it seems the writing is on the wall that they are no longer going to carry it. It is quite often on sale, but mostly out of stock...

    Is V4L going to get / carry the "Twist" version of eGo?

    The twist may be what causes me to convert from 808 to 501. Would love to see an 808 to preserve prior investment in half a dozen slimchargers at the least.

    Longevity of Soft Touch Titan Finish?

    Quick note of caution: I was cleaning a handful of titan manuals recently. I put 190proof (95%) ethanol ("Everclear") into a shot glass; just enough to cover the threads on a battery and set them in there for a minute or two... then using a brush to clean one, letting the others soak for as...

    USA Flavors Discontinued...Yes or No?

    A full 90% of my vaping comes from 5 particular V4L USA flavors. The remaining 10% (or less) is 3 V4L premiums, 1 V4L Wow, and 1 "other vendor". Would hate to see: Stogie, Gunslinger, No.7, Col.C. and BeachBum disappear!

    Ahh my diamond got sharp

    how the hell does that happen? Did a practical joker have access to your batt without your knowledge?

    3.5 and 6ml tanks experiences?

    For comparison sake, Coolcarts are ~3.0 ohm, and WOWs are ~2.0. I like the tanks with the black ends because of how they fit the flange on the carto. I prefer the 3.0 ohm carto's: they fire reliably on the Diamond and Titan series, but not well on the V4L EGO batts (On the EGOs I use the...

    Best "fit" APV - Advice Needed

    Update, I ordered three different trim rings from said other vendor on Saturday. They arrived yesterday and all have an inside thread diameter that is too large for the larger threads on the V4L ego. I guess it'll be up to them to supply those. Also, I noticed something with the lanyards I...

    Poll for New CoolCart Blank Colors

    I'm not using carts much any more, but when I was I would have bought: Brown Faux Filter Burgundy or Maroon (what's the diff?) MAYBE turquoise (and I have no idea what aubergine is)

    Best "fit" APV - Advice Needed

    The EGO's are almost exactly the same diameter as the 3.5ml tanks. However, the connection joint looks a little "unfinished" as the ego has two sets of threads, and the tank fits on the topmost/narrow threads, leaving the next level of threads exposed between the button collar and the bottom of...

    New website thoughts?

    The images and look of the site are fantastic. The walkthru's for selecting batteries should be helpful to newbs. Would like to see photos of all the batteries tho. If there is a wishlist feature, I sure cannot find it (and miss it terribly). Same with EGO product line.

    One thing's for sure, change is inevitable.

    Thanks Audrey. And waylon, I'm all about free shipping. I don't know how many extra $5 items I have laying around the house from all sorts of vendors.... A frequent conversation at my house: wife: Do you REALLY need ANOTHER {__insert_random_item_name_here___}? me: I just added it to get me...

    EGO's stocked Today!! 5-14-12

    Uniqua, I gotta say your third photo looks pretty nice. This V4L Ego is the first EGO I've had. Being heavily invested in their 808 OVKs (and chargers and cartomizers) is the only thing keeping me from going to 510 based standard (or the new VV ego). {{hmmm, note to self: consider offering up...
