Yay my Ahlusion finally shipped. It was the first order I placed last week and the last to ship. Thanks again whoever let me know about the sale. I only have 3 coming se of budget constraints but I'm excited about getting them. I'm probably gonna have to have mom hide Smooth Criminal from me for a few weeks.

Honey Peary is definitely one to vape on a lower voltage. I vape it at 3.7 ohm with a 2 ohm/2.5 ohm resistance carto.

Just so you know, I LOVE TIPS LIKE THIS! I mean, I can experiment on my own too, but not all my equipment has variable voltage (I gotta charge that baby sometimes) so it's good to know in advance.

No worries. A lot of people. A lot of posts. No. I have not tried Mother's milk but it sounds interesting. Isn't that like a strawberry milk or something?

I'm sure I'm late to the party on a reply here but Mothers Milk on low voltage tastes like fresh strawberries, cream or milk, and dry biscuit. It isn't a dry vape, but I mean to say the baked flavor is more like shortcake than sponge cake.

So nobody with a good idea for a cheap summer friendly device?

For me summer friendly means something durable with great threading. I go on hikes and I go to the beach and so I want something that will hold up if I drop it and the threads won't get all wonky if there is a grain of beach stuck in there. Did you mean summer friendly in case you lose it?

I'm a bit disappointed in the my choice of tank vapes for work this morning. I was so excited to try Freakshow Elixir's "Bed of Nails" and I'm driving into work, dippity do dah, and I pull...and it's virtually flavorless. The profile is supposed to be butter pecan vanilla ice cream but it's faint. For a gourmet brand, it's a bit disconcerting. Now that I think about it, most of the flavor profiles that describe anything "ice cream" has been somewhat of a let down. Sounds delicious in theory (really, who doesn't associate 'ice cream' with deliciousness) but from the few that I've tried, it's been muted. Perhaps it needs to be dripped rather than tanked?

Thanks for reading my rant. Stuck with this for the rest of day now :( Ah well, plenty more at home to try in a mere 8 hours!

Hoooooray!

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.

I feel your pain and I get this every week. I had full blown vapors tongue twice when I first started vaping and once lasted nine days. It was awful...zero taste on any vape!

I rotate now 10-15 flavors daily, in a wide range of flavors (from tobaccos to bakery and everything in between). And I always have loaded and vape daily Halo Fusion (unflavored) w/a few drops of some kind of flavor but mild (I use Halo Prime). It actually is very good and helps my fur ball tongue have a break on flavors. Some days, when my tastes buds are super wonky, I only vape unflavored. It does help.

Hope it goes away soon for ya!

No for the same as you are thinking. I just can't afford to spend a lot. I know some not all of you know but I just took a significant paycut. It stings often

Does anyone know if you can put a REO in like a bag or purse, or will it leak? Seems like it would..

I've been thinking of trying to supplement with unflavored. Does it really just taste like nothing? My diy sucks so I get frustrated. Probably because I've been trying to do fruits knowing full well I haven't had a lot of luck with premade fruits to begin with

Vaping Mother's Milk right now through a Kayfun Lite + (with a 1.3 ohm coil / cotton wick) at 3.9 volts. It is one of my ADV's and tastebud resetters. It's something that always hits the spot for me, after I finish a tank of something new and/or loud in the flavor department. I do find that it performs much better in a 1-2 ohm or higher setup and at voltages less than or equal to 4 volts. The warmer I cook it, the less the flavor satisfies me.

I don't know about most but Halo's Fusion is actually very good. It has a very mild sweet taste (very mild), clean, crisp, lots of vapor and doesn't gunk tanks at all. I add 2-3 drops of Prime (slight nut taste, some say light chocolate) and I can refill/top off a tank for several weeks without issues.

So although there's no taste really, it's not like completely zero if that makes sense. Especially if you add a few drops of something very light in your arsenal just to give a little taste. I get the Fusion in 12 mg cuz I still need nic. It gives my taste buds a break, the nic I need and still some TH but not harsh. It's worth a try to do unflavored and if it doesn't do much for ya, it's also great to add to flavors that are too strong and help tone them down a bit.

So today I decided I wanted only so of my old faithful regular vapes and nothing new-My lineup:
Virgin Vapor:
Kona Coffee Milkshake (FYI Virgin Vapor is out of stock on this and will be for quite some time-some of thestores that carry their line still have some available for now)
Hummingbird Fuel: I forgot how much I like this!!! nom nom
Razzmatazz: Virgin Vapors newest flavor-love love love this! Creamy-almost vanilla in addition to a sweet but real raspberry

Free State vapor:
CoKonaNut-love this-also good with the VV Razzmatazz (I look funny cruising along vaping 2 e cigs at the same time-nervous of actually mixing this in a clearo in case in tastes different

Signature Smoke Juice:
Stawlemon Delight-this is soo good! strawberry & lemonbar. The Lemon has a slight tartness to it

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.
Haha. The jury is still out on 5p for me. Definitely don't like sixty-four and also sampled Lucena last night, just got some real faint peach. Description also said something about a rum reduction and hazelnut, hmmm. Seems like this one needs to steep.

Only other real bad experience I can think of so far vendor wise is my VCV order. Sampled 5 flavors FOOB, meh. Again after two weeks, meh, no change, barely any flavor. Going to give it one more shot in next couple weeks and if it doesn't get any better You'll also be chuckling about my disdain for VCV, lol.

Brett, same thing with me pertaining to VCV. I don't get the hype. At. All.

It baffles me how much adoration this company gets on ECF.

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.

Yes get a big chest and a shelf We have "show your stuff Sunday" and all take pics of our shallow obsessing juice hoards

I tried VCV twice. First time got desserts and nothing, So blah. Heard some more rants and ravs and thought "maybe I ought to try again and get fruits this time." Same thing. Could not understand how so many LOVE them. They have a following thats for sure
