Would it be possible to get a juice/prefilled review sticky? I'm on ecf far more than vendors sites and honestly many reviews on the v4l site itself are off topic or not very helpful. Being as I'm new to v4l and they have a metric bleep ton of different flavors it would be helpful to see opinions all in one place as opposed to me starting "is this good? Is that good" threads lol.

Just an idea.

Well I absolutely prefer the Cool Carts for a as I got hot-spots with the WOW cartos, this led to getting burn-through on most of them if I was "stoking" at all on the same carto which led to them being unusable for refilling. The Cool-Carts didn't get hot to the same degree so I've been able to refill them. I decided it was cheaper to refill than to buy pre-filled and this far that decision has been really rewarding in terms of saving me money. Buying blanks is nearly as expensive as buying prefilled cartos so it's still worth it to get filled carts to start with if they have them in a "flavor" that you like. I like the WOW juice and V4L is quick and I've had no problems with order fulfillment from them and I understand that when mistakes do happen they are good about fixing it.

That having been said I have gone with a different juice provider and get blanks from another provider now that I've been doing it for a little while, not that there is anything wrong with V4L but the place I get my juice from lets me do almost infinite customization (PG/VG ratio, amount of flavor, etc) and they have a really dramatic price drop as your order gets larger (like 120ml orders) and shipping is a bit cheaper and the cartos I'm using just do what I need just a little bit better but they are really not as good looking as the V4L cartos.

V4L does have awesome sales on a pretty frequent basis and the batts and variety in batts they have are really the best also V4L tends to chuck n a grip of samples with your order so you can get an idea for what is out there. For me I can't go with something like the candy or food/drink flavors and the WOW Nuport is the tops in branded premixed juice, also the bottled they use drip te best of the ones I've used so far.

I was thinking the same thing.

So far the best one I have had is their Cool Cart Chocolate Raspberry that I was sent with my starter kit. It has a very sweet feeling and a nice burst of flavor to it. It taste just like it claims. It was the best hooked up on a normal sized battery though, on shorties it just seemed to wimp out a bit. Truly an excellent diversion from normal tobacco flavors if you want to try something different.

My Next favorite was the 555-vg that I received with my order. There is a nutty hint to the 555 that I really am enjoying. The taste is a bit weaker in VG formula, but the vapor is smooth like silk a great swap for when you don't want the throat hit you get with PG.

The other cartos were good, but the tobacco ones that are like Marlboros(Wowboy menthol) tasted exactly like Marlboros and I remember I smoked those because they were often on sale not because I liked them lol. But if you like that brand those prefilled carts are pretty darn good.

The Wow Vanilla VG I received I am not a big fan of tasted a bit like medicine, but the vapor is nice and smooth like the other VG cartos I received. This one I will have to give a pass on in the future.

Finally I had a Cool Cart Neuport. It was actually pretty nice. Good minty flavor with less the after taste that I did not like in my other big brand based flavor. I do feel though like I could probably get a even better mint flavor from peppermint or other menthols.

My only real complaint is that the Cool Carts do not want to thread on to my Vapor King Shorty batteries properly. They thread onto other batteries I have with no problem and no other carts have had problems attaching to the batteries. So make sure you have Diamonds or other batteries on hand if you like the CCs.

This has been discussed....you can take a fine grit sandpaper and gently sand down those threads....Snow has made a vid that shows doing just that....let me see if I can find it.....BRB

Of course we can read those reviews, Snow, but it's so much fun to get instant feedback here <cheer> Besides, I would never have tried peppermint if it hadn't been for some lovely ladies here telling everyone it tasted dreadful <wink, wink, wink> Now I have to try grape for the same reason and BOTH are flavors I abhor in the norm! Go figure <shrug> Maybe watermelon would not be so bad either, hmmmm. In any event, good luck with your choices and let us know how you like them and maybe we can suggest additional flavors - how's that for a compromise?
