Oklahoma? Hmmmmmm. I'll Google it and see what comes up. It's not the matter of getting there, or distance, it's the money issue. LOL
I placed an order today for some ejuice and something new called an EVOD BCC. the Vendor is located in Lewisville, right here in good ole Texas!
And some berry and also raspberry juice. Can't wait to mix it all up and see how it tastes...
*OT.. and tomorrow morning I go to my very first BellyDance Class! Can't wait to shake it there and see how it goes... Woooooooooooooo!*

i think you'll like the evod - i ordered some on tweety's recommendation and so far i have been satisfied. i also got a ''t4'' from fast tech, also with good results ;) and i can use my own drip tip :D

Hi Tibs!
Wow that's interesting. The first link you posted looks like what I'm using on the ego T - I guess that's what it's called - and of course, it's a throwaway carto. However, I - being a modder and all that - decided that I was going to find a way to make it last longer! LOL
So anyways, I pulled it apart after it started BURNING - that only took 3 days - and I pulled the fiberglass wick out of it and the coil was still intact, so I dry-burned it and managed to stuff the wick back inside the coil - sort of half-assed, but it works! I have to drip it a lot coz I can't refill the tank part of it now. It's still good, and will work til I get the EVOD this Monday.
I ordered from a local e-cig supplier - somebody new that is right in our hood. dfwvaporDOTcom is who they are. They had this killer deal on raspberry juice and I couldn't resist!
Can't wait to get it and start vaping it.

O yea, and of course, I bookmarked 'fasttech' coz they look like they would be somebody I want to order from in the future. I spent an hour the other day looking for somebody who STILL sells CE-2 cartos and I could only find one vendor, and of course, they were sold out.. Hmmmmmmmmm. Well, it looks like EVOD for me, as I like the RBA stuff..
But I'm not putting my Genisis down. O no! No way... LOL I see this as a sort of 'supplement' to the Genisis.

don't forget the heads are replaceable and less than a buck each;) also, if the coil is still good after dryburning the silica can be replaced! people are using different materials - cotton, mesh, ekowool - and rebuilding them from scratch even though they're pretty tiny;) i'll try to get a link from tomcatt showing his method for the evods.
if you should order from fast tech in the future, remember to upgrade the free shipping. it's a very reasonable charge and will get your order from china to your door in 7-10 days most of the time.

Hi Tibs!
Thank you for that kool link. I saved the page so I can go back offline and look at it again (and again and again LOL).
I got my stuff today! Only took one day regular mail to get it. Of course, the Vendor is practically in my hood anyway. Lewisville, TX vs. Cresson, TX..
I will fire up the EVOD later - right now, I'm still getting extra 'miles' off of the CE-5 carto that came with my e-Go T (or whatever it's called nowadays). I dry burn it, insert a little bit of silica wick and drip the juice on it. Still vapes like a freight train. I really was dazzled by it. It does better than any CE-2 cartos I had.. and pretty darned close to the Genisis as well..
Happy vaping!

Hi all, I'm using a a smok shorty carto in a tank and am encountering some problems with the carto. I'm only getting 2 days on this carto before it turns all black on me. I always make sure to keep the poly saturated and vape it at 6 Watts. The liquid I'm using is Vapedudes Key Lime Pie 50/50. I'm thinking it's the juice that's the culprit since I can vape Halo Tribeca just fine using the same set up.

sorry, nite - i have not used a carto - with or without tank - in ages. but since you do not run into the same problem with your halo juice i expect your deduction is right ;)
maybe some others here will chime in but all i can suggest is to lower the voltage - not every juice is at its best at a preset voltage that works for other juices. time to experiment a little, no? ;)

Nite, I use carto/tanks exclusively and I can tell you the type of juice one uses in a carto affects its longevity. I only vape 2 juices, one of them is Halo Torque 56 and my cartos last forever. For me Halo's juices are the purist/cleanest juices out there. The other juice I use is dark colored with a 50/50 ratio pg/vg and I get about 2-3 days use out of a carto. Your conclusion is correct: it's the juice.

p.s. Hi tibby, I haven't seen you for ages.:D

anytime, Alžběta! ;) and enjoy!
Oooooooooooo la la! I just got my EVOD BCC yesterday and toked it today.
Woooooooo! I love this thing. Vapes like a monster. I'm impressed. And for $15,- I don't think I went wrong... BTW, my original CE-5 is still going strong. I dry-burn it every few days. Easy do.

I read somewhere that if you have dark juice (more flavouring in it) then it GUNKS up the coil a lot more. I've found that to be true. Also, VG tends to gunk up more as well, as opposed to straight PG. Maybe this helps a little?
Please keep us posted!

Thanks all. I'll get some other juices in there too. Now I'm trying lemonade from MBV. I just love the look of the tank I'm using but haven't used cartos in a while till now. Just sucks that my favorite juice isn't cooperating with cartomizers. Now if I could just find a clearo with a 22 outside diameter and as short as a Ibtanked halfling I'll be set.

Wanted to veer a bit off topic here and thank Lorikay for sending me a Gotvapes Stallion carto. I love this carto. A ce2 with filling!!:toast: The flavor is good as is the throathit for me. And I do prefer the warmth of top coils. I do need to put a few drops of eliquid the top of the carto as it dries out quickly but it works well in a tank. It does tend to be a bit of a juicehog.


I found this review which perfectly sums up my experience with the Stallion.

Now back to your regularly scheduled program.:)


Or in Alžběta's case your regularly scheduled routine.:p

Just one this time. It costs me about $13,- to make one of my Genisis MODDS, so I figured it was a fair trade-off. I didn't have to do any work other than place the order LOL. I followed Tibs' link and saw they're a lot cheaper at the myvaporstore site so I'll most likely order from them next time.. The DFWvapor had such a killer price on juice I said - what the hell - and got the EVOD too..

I'm checking out your link of the Stallion.
I like the pic of Shakira on Dancing With The Stars here. I found the video online. She doesn't do a very complete bellydance choreography - but hey, I'm not one to knock it. She's a good singer and dancer JMHO and I'm just getting my feet wet on the dancing part! LOL A true NOOB if ever there were one!
