LOLLLL I bought a WIDE range of juices- desserts, coffee, tobacco, fruit in the first batch and then I was able to narrow it down.

Yeah, I imagine finding the right juice is going to be a pita. Unless I get lucky right off the bat. Hey! It COULD happen, though I doubt it with my luck.

A month after I began I got into DIY. The vendor should know. The larger companies that make large batches usually have their juice on a shelf steeping. The smaller "custom" mix companies juice needs steeping. The vendors will be upfront and honest about this. The ECF listed companies actually have reps here answering questions and dealing with customer issues. Generally a good idea to try and buy from ECF listed companies- less chance of problems and/ or bad juice. Some independents out there still putting some nasty chems in EJuice IMO.

Is there places you order from that you don't really have to worry about steeping?

Hello, I'm new to the forum. After much deliberation I have decided to make the switch. After endless hours searching the interwebs I have decided to order an ego-c twist t3 setup. I have NO clue as to what brand/pg,vg mix/flavor to get. I am curious if going to a tobacco flavored juice would satisfy my cravings or not. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
The only caveat I would add on what otherwise is a great setup is that I currently am using an Ego C Twist with a Kanger T3 and I am having issues with the T3 making good contact with the battery center pin. I don't know if that is just me or if it's an issue with all kanger T3's. All in All though I would say try it. It is a good clearo. If nothing else skys the limit on other choices out their. Once you have the Ego C that is more than half the battle won.

:confused: who me...Thank you
You can also subscribe to the vendors for newsletters and whenever a sale comes up you're notified. I snatched up plenty of inexpensive quality DIY stuff that way. Maybe a pain to receive the emails but when you strike gold you'll know it was the right move. You'll find the industry moves in "waves"...popular products are promoted and people snatch them up. It's the same with vendors of juice, accessories and new PVs. I remember when the LavaTube first came out- was selling for $120 and vendors couldn't keep it in stock...now, if patient, can be bought for less than $50.00. I remember when a particular carto was popular- Vendor couldn't keep up and was backlogged for a month.

Thanks Vapoor. You're a freakin' champ!

LOLLL Some people get REALLY disgusted thinking he's dead. The story is he wandered into a patch of fermented pumpkins, got drunk and passed out. The dude picked him up and protected him until he could sober up and make it back to the Missus. He was just having some fun...I would've sent him home with lipstick and makeup on :D
As far as Squirrels and Chipmunks I spend about $25 per week feeding the lil' guyz...outside my back door every a.m. for their handout. I've researched them and they are really quite amazing animals.

Tell me you didn't pose that squirrel. Lol

I tend to agree with you. Almost all of the vendors on here are nothing but the best and I always refer new vapers here for guidance. As well yes virtually all of the china juices are steeped and ready to go off the shelf. While I love Hangsen RY4 you just wonder sometimes. That taste are why I tend to like the hand crafted USA made juices. I am also getting into DIY when my shipment from Mt Baker gets here. I like the control I have with it and if I mess up I have no one but myself to blame.

Sounds like you've done your research :thumbs: DIY is an amazing hobby and I really loved it. I now vape flavorless with menthol- part of my program to eventually quit vaping. I still treat myself though every Fri and Sat night. Everything I buy DIY wise is USA made- it's cheap enuff as it is and the whole reason, like you, I got into DIY was to assure I was getting the best.

Hey a little menthol is not a bad way to go. Got some menthol in my order since I've been craving a simple menthol. Yeah I think the average cost of DIY E Liquid is about 11 cents a mil and as you said it's all USA made. Plus the flavoring can be bought almost anywhere.

I'm only vaping 2 mg so the menthol and high PG goes a long way in helping with TH. I run a non profit vape prog and we buy in bulk and I do pay but costs are ridiculously low.

That's great! Lol My dad hates the heck outta them chipmunks. They ruin the his garden pretty darn good. Lol
Wife got a really nice Rose of Sharon for BDay and I planted it at the cottage. That year must have been 30 baby squirrels runnin' round. When they're young they're taught to eat bark, leaves annnnd FLOWER BUDS...Wife thought it cute...bottom line they "deposited" the seeds throughout the garden and we now have 15 of these beautiful flowering Rose of Sharon bushes...it was their "gift" :facepalm:
