Well, got almost 2 days out of the first pod (though actually I was using tanks also) and tomorrow I'll do a refill and maybe try a re-wick just for the hey of it.

Overall, still impressed with it. And hey, I can play piano/keyboards with it in mouth! Try doing THAT with a box mod...

Me as well, dcdozer! Yet, I have no klue as to the flave.

Some say RY4. Some say 555. Dunno, but I like it!
It's not RY4 - I have several variants of RY4 from TFA, Hangsen, and FlavourArt. It's something else. I looked at BullCityFlavors and Inawera has a 555 Gold flavor, but that's about it. I know nothing about 555, but hoping somebody knows something, because I want more of this Blu Gold Leaf without the cost of $8.99 for 2 pods.

To me it tastes almost exactly like Tribeca from Halo.
I've been meaning to get a bottle of Tribeca for years but haven't gotten around to it. Maybe it's time to look for clones of that to get a lead on the flavoring they're using. Thanks for the tip.

Taste is definitely subjective. I've vaped Tribeca over the years (and years), and I'm not picking it up from the Gold Leaf.

I can see a similarity to Tribeca, because Tribeca also has that sort of nutty flavor to me, but the Gold Leaf isn’t nearly as sweet as Tribeca. I would definitely try some 555 flavors, as I remember that being a nutty tobacco very similar to this Gold Leaf flavor. But it’s been years, and the only way to find out is to try them again.

I agree that it Gold Leaf is reminiscent of Tribeca, but not even close to identical.
I have a very strong aversion to Tribeca - the fake caramel, burnt sugar flavor is beyond over the top. Just smelling it would make my stomach churn.

Even though I don't love the Gold Leaf, it is tolerable. I taste burnt paper and a little of the burnt sugar

One of the ones I gave away had the problem of the pod not staying in. I simply took a nail and tapped on the 2 top indents on the sides of the battery and it's good now.

Some have complained about that. Although I think it is on the pod side and not the battery (mod) side problem. Some just add tape around the pod.

I think it's the battery part. I tried several other pods on it and they all would not stay on that battery. It's possible that a pod could wear out tho and not seat in the dimples.

Are there any vendors that allow ordering multiple kits?
ejuices.com and eliquid.com only allow 1 per address, per order now.
(noticed these companies are the same)
Or do I just have to order 1 everyday...LOL?
I recently ordered 5 from eliquid.com and had no problem. I heard some people ordered more than that too.

I ordered five from liquid.com, no problem. There is a sentence on the page saying one per.... but
If you order one at a time, (5 separate orders, but it’s free shipping, so no big deal) they will all go through back to back. That’s the trick. So, either they don’t really care who gets them and they really just want to sell them, or they couldnt/didn’t want to set it to reject a second order by someone. Maybe not worth the trouble to them for something going for a dollar.

[If you try to put five in your cart and check out, you’ll only get the discount on the first one.]
