Whoah! Ok, guys, got vapemail from Coval yesterday afternoon and this morning filled up my tank with "Strawberry Creamcake" FOOB. It's very similar to "Stripper Cake" (which, ironically, I had all day yesterday) and I gotta say, even without breathing (just a lil' shake shake shakin')...it's BETTER than SC. It's creamier. Smoother. Doesn't have that slight chalk-y taste SC has.

Enjoying it here at work! Will be trying their "Custard" soon. Will report back. Unti then....VAPE ON !!

Chalky taste? Glad Im not strawberry or cake flavors. Does anyone have experience w nostalgia from clever vape? I have tried mine, and theres a strange taste in it... They messed up my order pretty good, had a flavor I didnt order in a bottle labeled as a diff one I did order, and double flavor on everything. I never order extra flavor, by my reckoning, if a juice isnt flavored right to begin w/ I shouldnt have to fix it for them.. Anyway, i dunno if it's the tea or what, but i get a sort of almost anise aftertaste, is it my imagination or do yall taste it in there too?

My egos tend to last anywhere from 5 months to over a year and it seems to be based on the individual batteries not so much where they are from or how much used. I use mine ALOT and toss them into my purse etc....pretty hardy lil things. I am curious when you mentioned you have tried 5 different clearos: Did you try the iClear16?
I have more Iclear 16's than anything else. They work fine but I just hate cleaning all that wick. I don't leave my juices tanked anymore, I swear they were picking up metallic taste when left bathing in the tank for days. The EVOD is just easier. I finish the tank, rinse it and throw a new piece of cotton in. I also have a few mini Vivi Nova-s, PT2 mini's, some skinny 1ml tanks I can't identify, and an Aurora BFT. The only two I use are the EVODS and Iclear 16's.

I had evods, and I thought the flavor was better than a protank, or any other clearo. Darned things leaked all the time though. I could never take them in the car, theyd leak in under half a mile. What did you think of the aurora? I have thought about getting one myself

I want an aurora too! I can't find a purple one in stock.

Vaping Sour Skittles by VCV again....so yum. Maybe an ADV, although something about their nic is crazy strong - maybe because it's so "pure?" Can't drip 12 for too long.

I haven't had much trouble with the EVODS leaking. The Aurora is so-so. I just can't seem to squonk the bottle just right on a consistent basis. It is either flooding my atty or not enough juice. There was also a piece of plastic around the atty that melted, which I removed. I was vaping melted plastic fumes on it when I first got it. Awesome.

I have been out running around all day and just got home so all i've tried from my new HB order so far has been the Caramel Cake. I loaded a clean tank and headed out the door. Wow. My car smells like a bakery. Heavy hitting rich homemade Caramel, still light on the cake but it's there...hoping it will come out and play more. Glad I didn't add any extra flavor to it. (I haven't added anything to any of the juices i've bought from them and they have been perfect at a 50/50 blend)
It is really good. Too sweet for an ADV but I will be running to this one when I need a bakery fix for sure. And it will be divine with coffee. I keep thinking about buying the HB Apricot to mix with it too. I think it might be nice.

So glad to hear that about the caramel cake. That's exactly why I ordered it, to go with my coffee! I also got mine at 50/50 and nothing extra. Now I can't wait to try it. Been letting it steep, and by the time I get home on Sunday it will have been steeped for 2 weeks, so hopefully it will be really good by then! :D

Virgin Vapor and Free State Vapor are both diacetyl free-I've confirmed..and I believe it states it on their websites. However, in what I have been reading about this....there are many other things that can break down and become diacetryl....and that isn't often addressed by vendors.

I just got my email back from Free State:

"Thank you for your question.
Free State Vapor flavors do not contain Diacetyl, Acetyl Proionyl or Acetoin. We feel that complex flavors can still be made without adding the buttery undertones supplied by these components. Our flavor profiles are mostly made up of a fruit base and enhanced by mixing flavors in a way that brings out the creaminess.
One flavor that I know you are aware of is our "The Nilsson". It would have been a great flavor based in a custard type flavor. However, using the coconut and vanilla we were able to have the base we wanted without using a standard custard / butter flavoring.

Hope this helps!
Karly"

Thanks for letting us know firephly! I still need to try them. And Signature Smoke Juice. And another Steam Co. order. And Coval Vapes. Sigh...does it ever end? :facepalm:

My Coval Vapes order already arrived! That was quick! 2 days. Vaping the Strawberry Creamcake. I think my semi burnt coil is muting the flavor though. I guess it's time to rebuild my first coil... :vapor:

Mine is being delivered today...of course when I'm out of town! Ugh! I got the same thing, can't wait to try it!

Welcome back Brett! I have been crazy busy too. Final two weeks of university for me, and then I graduate!!
I am not a big fan of VCV. I tried them about 6 months ago. They did get better after a long steep, but not my fave.

Congratulations on your upcoming graduation! That is quite an accomplishment!:thumb:
