CHIT CHAT in VOLTVILLE

[marlou]

My white x2, with that shiny silver trim, is a pretty battery. But I never did get a standard batt in white. So in honor of Whitey I'm going to add an auto white 78 batt to my list. I'll put a diamond end cap on it, a silver drip tip and a silver carto. Hey Wuzz, I hope blinging it up won't offend Whitey's memory.

I think we've finally done it, Gang. We are officially 'round the bend'...jumped the shark...gone bananas...but we are a happy, vapin', coffee-swillin' bunch of Volties.

Can't speak for the rest of you but I already knew I'm a few fries short of a happy meal.

Not a bit Marlou. I'm sure you'll take better care of it than I ever did for Whitey. I'm now using his cousin "Sparky".

And with that I'm off to the Fat Farm this morning. Later all.

"A few fries short of a happy meal" - Love it! That just about sums it up right there.

When SI came out with the sealed batteries they put the old ones on sale at almost giveaway prices. I took advantage and stocked up. Since then I've loaned out several and given a few away to people wanting to try them and make the switch. I've got two out on loan now that may or may not come home soon. What I run short on as loaners is chargers but after a couple of charges they usually either order or decide vaping isn't for them. So far it's about 30% order and 70% either don't or order later. I don't care anything about the affiliate program or whatever it's called. Just like helping people and guiding them to a quality product rather than seeing them go to Wally's and buy a piece of junk without giving vaping a fair chance.

Good morning,,,,,drinking coffee and vaping my disgusting Njoy,,,,but I absolutely REFUSE to go back to analogs for the week or so until my Volt arrives. I will suck it up and wait for the Volt. Some Totally Wicked Menthol is making it manageable.

Hang in there. It won't be long.

that's the only thing that gets me through LOL.

I'd be glad to send you one of my batteries and charger, but I'm sure SI will get it there faster than I could. I ran out of something once and had to go to Walgreen's for some prefilled cartos. I try hard not to let that happen again. Back ups for the back ups, as they say.

I've got a feeling things are gonna get a whole lot better for you soon so don't give up. If you like menthol I'd suggest you try a pack of the Menthol Ice cartos. I don't even like menthol but I enjoy one of those once in a while.

SI has quick service I'm told!!!!! I know it will get here soon,,,,,,,,it's only amazing to me that after taking a drag off the darned NJOY, I didn't just give up then LOL. I think it was the CONCEPT that got me more than the el-cheapo brand LOL.

That's SI Menthol Ice, Wuzznt? I don't care for most menthol, but I do like JC Wisconsin Frost. Now I may have to add the Ice to my cart. Is it a strong menthol?

Menthol is my fav,,,,,,,,but I am really looking forward to the flavors too!!! I will give those Menthol Ice cartos a try!

 

[CommaHolly]

Is it just me, or do the really cheap cartos take a TON of e-juice,,,,,,I find myself topping off almost every time I vape to avoid a yucky taste. And seriously, I am not vaping that much,,,,,,just enough to get me by. Can't vape that much,,,,with one crummy battery, and a kid who's stealing it some, the dang thing charges most of the day LOL.

IMO, SI cartos are superior to others I have tried...I haven't tried a ton of different cartos, but SI is the best. It does seem the cheapies require more attention. SI XL cartos hold more and I believe some smaller clearos are in the works. The clearos are great...so easy to fill.

I don't know if I'd describe it as strong since I'm not a menthol user as a rule. I'd call it pretty rich in the 24mg I bought. A few hits and it leaves a pleasant taste and cool sensation in my mouth and throat. I know it's impossible but it seems to help my breathing a little and cools my nose when allergies arise. I guess it's called Ice Menthol and yes it's SI. I just looked on the site and darn, they've only got 0 and 6 mg cartos in stock. But they do have bottles in 24. I think I like it enough to buy a bottle just to have around. I vape a few tobacco juices that might just taste good with a little mixed in and juice keeps very well. Let's see...30% off on Friday....Hmmm.

Most of the cheapo cartos I've tried I've had to top off almost constantly. I've never had to top off an SI carto before the battery charge died yet. The horizontal bottom coil design and quality filler work a whole lot better and are perfectly matched to the battery voltage. I start a new carto with every fresh charge and recharge at night. Only takes a few minutes to top them all off. When a carto stops producing well I either leave it where the battery runs out or stick it in a seperate place to take it out of rotation. If it's just tasting funky I may try to clean it but if it's not producing as much vapor I toss it.

 

[Wuzznt Me]

Double post Gremelins got me.

 

[lilac7779]

Thanks for the info, Wuzz. 6 mg. would be fine, but I don't usually go higher than 12 mg. I'll check it out. I wanted to get some prefilled and juice to add.

 

[CommaHolly]

I thought it might be the carto. To be fair, this el-cheapo brand is meant to be vaped and then tossed,,,,i pried them open and added juice so I wouldn't have to spend a fortune on their cartos until I got my volt.

Mornin! Just got back from work, today i tried my luck with a 630V 1250A power installation.
Cool ....! You can deep fry a person in seconds.

I hope you did not test that and it is only a theory... (LOL)...
