Okay, I have had my Smokestik kit for about a month. Loved the device, hated the flavors. I am a menthol smoker, and their menthol made me cough so badly, I ordered Smokestiks non menthol to replace them. No coughing, but still, just like the menthol, bad taste.
On utube I learned that I could refill my cartos, so I ordered some menthol juice from Halo, didn't make me cough, but still, tasted pretty bad, like medicine or something. I was able to use it all with no problems, but couldn't get over the disappointing flavor. Would LOVE for someone to direct me to a really good menthol. I know it won't be like the analogs, but I HATE that sweetish bubble gum flavor that seems to be in menthol vapes.
So last week I ordered a sample kit from awesomevapors. USA, rum, tobacco, menthol, pinacolada, pineapple, RY4, Camel.
My new menthol that came in the kit made me cough (but not too much), and though it didn't have the bubble gum undertaste, it tastes kinda like pinesol smells, more piney than menthol. All of my new flavors make me cough horribly except RY4, rum, and tobacco. HOWEVER, those flavors aren't giving me much of a throat hit at all. Doesn't feel like real "smoking" without the throat hit.
Am I doing something wrong? It seems crazy that all these flavors from three different companies are making me cough and often actually cause me some pain. I'm not knocking Halo, Smokestik or Awesome vapors, it's obviously something with me. They actually HURT when I inhale. Sometimes after awhile, I don't know, maybe after the juice settles, seems like they don't hurt any more, but still cause some coughing. Usually I fill and smoke. Should I be letting them sit and "steep" or something? My original pre-filled carts from Smokestik also caused pain and coughing with the menthol, but not the regulars,so I don't know if steeping is the issue, since they, being pre-filled had obviously steeped. I can't afford to spend alot of money to keep trying brands, so I'm going to have to vape and cough until I use all this stuff up.
Incidentally, I don't know if it's relevant, but I'm buying 18mg nic.
Don't want to go back to analogs, but this is driving me crazy.
Coughing and pain seem to be worse on the ones I'm refilling as compared to my non-menthol from Smokestik, though it was so bad with their menthol flavor, I couldn't smoke them all.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
