Here is a snapshot of my collection about a month ago. I've added some and sold/loaned out some but am too lazy tonight to take a new picture.

Love this pic and so glad it is a female that has it all and can be talked to in regular language that another female can understand. Sometimes I try to talk to guys about this and all the sudden the language starts getting like WHA WHA what? torqs and twists and wha?

Yeah,Steam Co. didn't do for me either. The only one I care for that I purchased was/is Sean Lepreconnery.
I think most already know, but I'm in this camp as well. In fact, I have my last tank of Gentlemen's reserve loaded (from what was left that didn't spill in my backpack) and when it's gone later today I'll have the Steam Co completely out of my house and collection. I will not be reordering.

I have some of the AGA-T3's right now, and haven't tried a build on one yet. The positive post is strange looking.
Need to give one a go. But, my Kraken is such an easy deck to build on!

I ordered some ReadyXwick yesterday. $8.00 per foot, but everyone is raving that it is the next best thing out their for wicking.
Just free wrap your coil around the wick, and attach your leads and rock. They say the flavor is better than cotton. We will have to see bout that! Anyone tried any yet?
An aga-t2. Probably the easiest to build of all my gennies. The kraken is the most adjustable.

Thank you. I love my collection but have started paring down a bit. At first, I was buying all kinds of stuff to see what was right for me. I've finally figured that out so I'm buying more selectively now. I kept 1 Provari and 1 MVP but those will probably be it for regulated devices. I much prefer the mech mods. I still have a bunch of carto tanks that I bought when I was convinced I could never rebuild my own coils but I will probably start getting rid of most of those as well. I do like having a few for the days I don't feel like building or those bad vape days when nothing wants to work right.

LOL Brett your disdain for them makes me laugh. I'm trying to think of a vendor I really don't like. Five pawns I guess. Barf. But honestly, I've come across such better things since Steam Co. I probably won't be ordering from them for a long while. Must. Have. More. Ahlusion.

I just won a 30ML bottle of Halo juice on the Halo thread. Head over if you want to give it a shot. It's the "Numbers Game Thread" There will be 4 more winners today. I never win anything, so I was surprised! Kathi17 won last time if I remember right. Angelphyre is giving it her best shot right now, LOL. Gonna go help her out!

Halo

I won a few weeks ago. It's really fun, but I'm never at home when it runs. The time I played, we were having a blizzard, so I was house bound. They are a very welcoming group! :)

Yay again for our new thread:) I've been switchin flavors in my cheapo dripper. I can tell TVC honet pearry that I'm tryin for the first time is excellent, just not subohm. Tastes awesome at first, fruity and complex, but after a few puffs, it gets roasted at .6 ohms or so and tastes bad, smells like vomit. After that experience I assumed I would recoil it, so before I did I tried the sample of pluid leonidas sent, (in a 5p sample vial, thought it was absolute pin ate first, lol) And didnt like it. Tastes like I thought I had grabbed the rootbeer jelly bean and got the black one by mistake. There ya go man, you insisted, so I experienced. 3 drops was plenty experience for me on this one, lol. Anise is just not my thing:(

I absolutely love the black jelly beans, but I just couldn't see vaping that flavor. The thought of that is just gross to me. Any time I see anise listed, I immediately move on!

I initially enjoyed both Genteleman's Reserve and Orchard Reserve. But, a couple of tanks each have changed my mind too. I have the remainder of the 30 ml bottles of each, and then I'm done with Steam Co. too. Just too rough around the edges. Not something I will find myself craving in the future methinks.

It wasn't just a "bad tummy" night for me either. I've had three sessions with the 5P samples now. All three times were the same "sick to my stomach and slight headache" experience for me. Different juices each session too. So, It's not likely the flavoring. I'm assuming that it is something in their base formula.

Really bums me out. I love to try new and different things and they definitely have a lineup that I haven't even come close to from any other vendor so far.


I got something, not exactly sure what. I did feel a headache coming on, so I put it down and picked up something else for the rest of the night.

There is definitely something in their liquids that is not present in other ones I've tried. I just have no idea what. All I've tried so far is about .5 ml of the Fifth Rank from Mixology. Plan to sample some more tonight. Will be keeping close tabs on how I feel with each and every puff. The flavor of Fifth rank is absolutely outstanding! It's the sideshow and other effects that have me a little concerned. We'll see how it goes.

Darn it! I caved in too and placed an order for 2x 30ml bottles and a bottle of Candied Cavendish and Creamy Chai. You guys and gals are simply to enabling to resist lately. I think it's time to invest in a bigger steeping chest again.

Penny, it's terrific. Lime rainbow sherbert. I have a nice collection and AS has quickly become a favorite ADV. The hype is warranted on this one. Enjoy. Report back.

Wow I'm surprised! Am I the only one with love for the Steam Co reserves? I picked up another bottle of each a few weeks ago so I wouldn't run out so now I have it in 2 different nic levels too. Has anyone tried the unreleased reserve flavor yet? I haven't tried anything other than the reserves because my JjRr family hasn't spoken very highly of them and I just literally gave away over $100 in unvapable juices. It made me sick to my stomach but only for a minute it all went to vape charity. I now know 3 very down on thier luck vape families. I help as much as I can. I would rather help them vape than break that rolling machine back out because it's cheaper

For those who were wanting a bit more flavor in your juice from Ahlusion. In my last review email ( this is not the review which you post on their website but rather the reply to the email which Ahlusions sends after you have received your order - usually containing
the 15% off coupon), I explained each set up I was using to vape the juice I'd ordered and that for me it needed a bit stronger flavor.
I received an email from Ahlusion the next day saying they noted in my profile that I need increased flavor in all future orders.
So just let them know in your juice review/reply email.
Most of the Ahlusion regulars here already know this.

I have SUCH a case of on-going Dead Tongue Disease, and all I can even get part of a taste of is my chocolate and coffees. I get tired of them and I know my husband is sick of smelling them all the time. When I started I went to tart fruits and loved them, but now I get almost no taste from them (or any other fruit). Never a lover of sweet stuff, so I'm kind of stuck with next to nothing at this point...except mints. I'm hoping the Angel Sauce will be something I can enjoy.

Good feedback. Folks who are new to Ahlusion should also note that Ahlusion creates juices for drippers. They specifically state in their FAQ, that if you are using a tank, to please e-mail them with your vaping set up, so that they can make the flavors stronger for your set-up.

I keep a good mint around all the time for this. I'm vaping it now! This one is Fuzions short run Shammy Shakes. It's good
