I agree that the aerotanks are a bit blah.... With stock coils. With my own coils and organic cotton they really come alive and the main reason I haven't purchased more rta's. My only beef is the little rubber insulators trend to rip after only one or two rebuilds, and I have to go buy new coils that I have no intention of using just for the little rubber piece. At least now I've found a coil that makes my kayfun actually work better then my aerotank builds, which is a first. Someday I'll get a lemo to run this Clapton build on
Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

My gripe with RTAs is that many require a screw to refill or have plastic tanks or both. I will say that the nic hit off of my SquapeR clone is much more substantial than the one I get off of my Kanger aerotanks, though, and the flavor is quite a bit better. I don't drip, though, so I can't compare it.

The Fogger 5 has a top that unscrews, then you remove the little rubber gasket and fill. Easy peasy...and the tank is glass The Erl... has a top cap that turns a quarter turn, if you get the right one, comes with a plastic and a stainless tank. It is ugly no matter which tank is on it and a real pain to get wicking so it doesn't taste like feet but super concentrated flavor. You can get a glass tank for it elsewhere but I prefer the Lemo ...even if it is a stupid name... and the Foggers. and my Taifun that every time I use it and my son sees it, has something negative to say about it.

I agree that rebuilding the coils for Kanger tanks and rewicking with cotton makes a huge difference. I haven't had the grommets crack on me yet, but I can see how (when?) that can happen. Lucky for me, I picked up a bunch of coils T3S coils when I first started vaping (rookie mistake, I know--now!) and by adding an extra cap, those coils are usable on all of my tanks, so I'm set for a while.

I opted for the SquapeR over the Fogger because the build looked much easier... and, I must admit, that the build on my SquapeR is extremely painless. Maybe when I run out of Kanger heads, I'll consider adding more RTAs to my collection.

Archer, just curious.......what do you use for dripping? I've only tried that when I first started vaping 2.5 yrs ago with a crappy little atty that leaked a lot.

I've never tried a tea vape other than a chai long time ago. It was tasty, but gave me heartburn. Probably all in my head, since chai usually gives me heartburn, but I drink it anyhow...yummm

With all the pickle talk, I had to go look. Gotta say, I'm intrigued by the pickle, green apple and key lime. I love me some green apple. How prominent is it in that juice?

Oh boy. I've been a dripper since day one just about. My last 3...Igo l, Igo w, magma, and now my favorite is the plume veil. Oh rats...that was 4. Who's counting?!

You did what?! is expertly blended, if I do say so myself. I set about to create a juice that incorporates sour elements, but is perfectly palatable and unique. The apple is prominent, but like the other two flavors it just blends into the juice. You did what does not really taste like pickle, apple, and lime. It tastes like you did what, which is exactly what I wanted. :)

My new favorite RDA is the dark horse, air flow is great out of the box, no need to drill out holes, and the posts are tall so I have room for my fun stovetop build

Greetings! My name is bwh79 and I've only recently picked up vaping after being a smoker for near-on 20 years. Don't know yet what my favorite types of e liquids are since I've only just tried the one flavor (a fruity menthol) that I got with my starter kit. Got a couple free samples on the way though, so that'll give me a chance to try out some variety.

Hi! Great to meet you.

You've come to the right place to be a vaping newbie. This forum is awesome.

Congrats on starting vaping. It's a decision you will never ever regret.

We're so happy to have you, and thanks for joining our thread!

y'all are up late. Will definitely have to try some you did what if I win. Most all the flavors sound really yummy. I do love the fact that you actually tell me what flavors are in them right up front. Hate it when I have to click and click to find the description, then I see.......tastes like a summer breeze. Really???

Oh yeah. We made the decision early on to be as transparent as humanly possible. We simply refuse to do business any other way!

And yes...We're always up late. We man our customer interactions constantly. Pixie and I are night owls. ;)

There is good chai and not so good. I have had chai vapes that taste like sweetened mild cinnamon and others tht tasted of ginger and black pepper, some are creamy and others not...

Tea vapes... I love tea vapes, they can run a little wild too. Some are real nasty but I have figured out which tea maker does the nasty one... others are mild with a slight dry smokiness on the exhale, others have a slight almost nuttiness to them but not like almond or any nut you can name.. others taste exactly like Constant Comment spiced tea, I vape a plain iced tea daily... no lemon or mint in it but it is just relaxing for me like a nice cup of hot tea.

I think I would try the pickle too. The green apple scares me though. It seems to be a flavor that messes up my taste buds. Caramel Apple is one of my favorite flavors but if any or much green apple... 2 or 3 puffs and I am done for the day as far as anything tasting as it should.

yeah I can't stand anything that is like black pepper. Even had trouble finding juice I could vape at the 24 mg I needed, cuz most I'd tried tasted like black pepper.

dry smokiness. I'd actually wondered about exactly that. I am a coffee drinker, but love hot tea sometimes, but it always dries my throat out and leaves me thirsty. Especially if it's unsweetened. Yeah I think a creamy chai would be better. The one I had was mostly ginger and clove.

Deb, I actually consider myself a tea drinker that drinks coffee at times. The best tea vape I have had to date was a Thai Tea... it was a strong tea that really tasted like a strong English Breakfast or an Irish Breakfast that was mixed with an equal part of sweet creamy milkiness that tasted like eating Eagle Brand milk from the can with just a hint of tangerine or pineapple... not sure the fruit taste but was a great tea vape. Didn't notice any dryness from it, just sweet creamy tea goodness. Then they changed their recipe...

Hi, I'm Dave.

My Granddaughter (8 at the time) came to me and said she learned about smoking in school and how bad it was. She said, "Do you smoke, Pop Pop? I want you to stop, cause I don't want you to die. Will you stop, for me?"


(With big brown eyes...)



Had my last smoke Sept 23rd 2013. She is so proud of Pop Pop.

I like tobacco flavors, some drinks (berry lemonades, Pina Colada).


I just wanna tell you both: good luck. We're all counting on you.

I found this out the hard way haha.I've never actually drank chai tea,so i had no idea what it would taste like,but the 1 chai tea vape i've tried was so bad it will never get touched again haha,it was definitely in the ginger and black pepper realm,very spicy type of taste.
