Congrats super x drifter. Wow that's great news. Clear lungs.

So, now I am curious about how you did this. Exactly what juice have you been using during the past 6 months? Was it mostly pg? Mostly vg? DIY or a specific vendor?

I really think it might help the rest of us former smokers if you would be so kind to share the details.

And...keep up the good work. Awesome news.

Thanks Bullette!

The only juice i vape is unflavored nic 24mg in 30% pg 70% VG. I get it from wizard labs. I recently purchased from Myfreedomsmokes (because wizard was closed for moving) so I had to get it in a 25%pg 75% VG mix. I am very happy with both vendors!

I love unflavored because it is very close to the taste of Marlboro light with none of the perfumy / potpourri taste I get in all "flavored" juices I have tried.

If you haven't tried unflavored nic and would like something close to a cig feeling you should try it - it's an amazing vape. And it's dirt cheap!

It's important to clean all the previous flavors out of your device first, I have found that I can detect even a trace of flavored juice thru the unflavored if the device / bottle / carto / atty was not properly cleaned (or changed altogether) and the thought of a flavor makes my stomach wretch.

I feel sort of bad for those ex smokers who think that they are stuck with nasty flavors when plain old unflavored nic is such a smooth, satisfying vape right out of the bottle, every time. No steeping required.

Thanks for that info. Last week I received my first order of unflavored 24mg nic @ 100% vg. I haven't tried it yet. But the reason I wanted to try it is that I have read several posts from the veterans here on ECF saying that they only vape unflavored. Logically, I thought that vaping might be healthier without flavoring. So now you have convinced me.

Do you think the 25-30% pg you use is important for health reasons? Or maybe you just prefer it that way?

PS. I've had my REO since Christmas & I love it!! It feels funny to use the old barrel-style now.

My VV Woodvil with the chalice has been loaded with unflavored nic for the last couple of months.

I find it easy and not at all unpleasant so why not ??
Plus i figured I learned to love and crave the flavor of nasty Camel lights so this is great in comparison.

I almost always grab that REO first thing for a couple of hours until I get going ..... then its some home brew RY4 most of the time.
Even when I mix flavor juices I'm always below 5% even with regular (non concentrate) flavorings.
I'm waiting on an order from wizard lab and hoping that their unflavored tastes the same as my previous vendor.

Bullette,

I am not sure about any health related issues or benefits with the ratio, but rather I had the small percentage of pg (30%) added for a little added TH and so it is slightly thinner than straight VG. I will add that my coil stays clean as a whistle using it, so deductive logic may reason that less gunk in the coil may be less in the mouth and lungs?

My main and really only reason I run it is that it just tastes so bland (good) and has none of the flowery? taste like most (all) tobacco flavored juices. The fact that it is cheap, and burns clean are really just added bonuses!

Please let me know how you like it. Remember, if your paraphernalia is not really clean - like boiled in soapy water and rinsed very very thoroughly, you will likely still taste the remnants of the flavors you previously used. I just received an atty in a trade ant it took boiling it in water/dawn for 30 mins and soaking in fresh water overnight to remove the other dudes flavor completely.

Good luck!

Tim, having ordered from exclusively WL until recently, I can say that you will likely be pleased, although MFS ships in glass which seems like a huge plus for immediate storage. I have not tasted their stuff yet, but it smelled identical. My guess is that they share a source or WL supplies MFS.

2 liters went right in the freezer.

In other news, you may have even understated how exceptional the Chalice is. In my opinion, it is to the hornet what the hornet was to the carto. I'm just about to rewick that bad boy.

drifter, so glad you have discovered the awesomeness of the Chalice. Isn't is a nice piece of work? By far my favorite RBA, hands down. I just wish they weren't so darned expensive!!

Jan, this thing is incredible. Y'all were right. Far superior to the hornet for several reasons ( and I already think the hornet is great):

Fantastic, consistent vapor production and temperature.

Idiot proof squonking.

Screw on cap that doesn't require Orings.

Design / functionality.

Build quality.

Versatility.

Off the chain, all day, hit after hit stellar vape.
