I just reported how Highbrow's RY4 compared to SI's, so that can give you an idea. They are similar, but SI's is sweeter with more other flavors, which I taste as mainly the caramel. I don't detect vanilla in either, but maybe it's mixed in and that's what makes the caramel not taste just like caramel.

You're right, SandySu, SI's is sweeter. I get a slight nutty taste in highbrow's, which I like even though I don't usually like nutty tobaccos.

I wonder if we're actually supposed to taste the vanilla. It might be like when we put vanilla in baked goods etc., we don't actually taste the vanilla, it just gives the food a richer flavor.

About a year ago someone got my debit card number and tried to order online and set up a Pay Pal account. My bank caught it and called me to verify. They cancelled the card while we were on the phone and stopped the payments on the orders.

There is a funny side to my story though. As you all know I am an older lady (man I just can't bring myself to use the word 'elderly'. Well, the attempted purchases were for airline tickets and an order from Fredericks. :lol:

If she can run that mouth , I can too. Sounds like someone justs likes to dish it out but cant take it.

jays1fan after reading the various threads, I have come to the conclusion that you are the one disrespecting fellow community members and Imagine. Imagine is one of the fairest and helpful vendor representatives on ECF. In no way was her response disrespectful to you. Our fellow community members were standing up for other community members that you disrespected.
The Volt forum is a very caring group and very willing to help new people. However, when you come here and disrespect community members and the vendor representative and demanding something for free, I don't think you will enjoy your stay here as we will look out for each other.

Personally, I hope you do purchase Bloog products, let the Bloog forum put up with your negative and demanding attitude.

Thanks Imagine and other Volties for making this the best forum on ECF!

My old bank sucks. Don't use them except to cash checks now LOL. someone got a hold of my debit/credit card number and took around 5k from my checking account. Had this happen one other time. They never contacted me. I found out when I tried to buy something and it was declined. My sister who goes to the same bank was alerted after a questionable $1 charge hit hers. Damn em.

Yeah , so you come HERE and run your mouth. Feel sorry for those kids.
I was really going to give SI another chance until I saw this BS

If she can run that mouth , I can too. Sounds like someone justs likes to dish it out but cant take it.

A quick check of your posts on the Bloog forum pretty much tells the tale about your playing one vendor against another trying to get something as cheap as you can and there's nothing wrong with that.

But..if you notice at the botom of each post next to where it says Blog this Post you'll see a little triangle. If you hover your cursor over it you will see what it's for. Combative or abusive posts will not be tolerated. This isn't SI's policy. It's personal. These are decent friendly and helpful people on this thread.

I'm sorry to hear that and the losses others have been reporting too. Unfortunately the internet has given the "bad buys" a great big hunting ground. And these same "bad guys" always seem to stay one step ahead of the "good guys". It would be a blessing if a completely secure way could be found to buy online, but at this point it isn't looking likely. I guess all we can do is try to be careful and even more important.....hope we're very lucky.

Cat! The usb adapter drains your bat? :D:p
If you leave a batt on the USB dongle and it's not getting any power, yeah.
What's been happening to my purple batt that I dropped and revived is that once in awhile, the light would stay on, or it would blink after it's done, and when I don't remove it right away, it's dead again when I do. Also, I used to use the USB port on my PC laptop that goes to sleep when the laptop does. Dead again.

That's odd, there is only a voltage comparator on these adapters, there are also diodes preventing voltage going backwards. Seems strange.

Try it and see...I haven't done it for a long time. Maybe they reworked it.
It has been happening to my purple batt lately though...

That's interesting, Jacki. The RY4 I have is very light in color. I'm wondering if it is possible that is was mislabeled, maybe?

The carto I'm using came as a prefilled tobacco.

Okay, I tried dripping the juice on an atty and it has very little taste. I hate attys and I hate using them. I'll let the juice sit for a few weeks or so and try again.:confused:

Thank you, everyone, for taking the time to answer.

SI's RY4 is a prefilled carto, so I don't know what color the juice would be, but Highbrow's is in a bottle, and it's dark orange colored. I don't know if that sheds any light on whether your juice is really RY4 or not.

Konstantine, this is the doo-hickey you took apart and showed us pics of the (green) 'mother' board, yes?
Yes! That's it. Mine was charging and sometimes not, i had to wiggle bats, shake it etc to get it working till i finally opened it and repaired it, the ground was disconnected from the connector.

I wonder where can i get connectors like it cause i would like to make a multi battery charger.
