A lot of tobacco flavors don't taste the same as tobacco that you're used to. But here's a link:

Mt. Baker Vapor tobacco flavors:
Nicotine Juice - Tobacco Flavors - Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes
If you order from there you can get 24 mg and I'd say just get the house blend PG/VG.
Coupon code ecf.

555 is a popular flavor. I vape his RY4 - it is a rich deep flavor and not very toboccao-ish to my taste. Try a few small smaples of different ones. it's surprising what you find you like - often different to what you might expect.

Oh so you're one of THOSE! lol I tried Ry4 (a few diff sites) and always hated it lol but SOOOO many ppl love it...funny how it is...and I have a 15ml of 555 waiting for me in a dark box (to me it's better after a couple weeks but to mix with not straight up).

I edited one of my earlier posts to mention that. But yes, citrus and cinnamon are the ones to watch out for.



Being a 2-3 PAD smoker I'd start with 24mg liquid. There's a chance you may need higher (some sites offer 36mg liquid) and there's also WTA liquid (I have zero experience with it) as well. Mt. Baker Vapor is my current go to for liquid.

Don't stick with just tobacco flavors (I understand many find them necessary at first). Buy a sampler or two of something different that sounds good and give it a try. If you order over X amount they send a free 15ml sample bottle of their choice. I will recommend their Extreme Ice. It's a menthol/wintergreen flavor and very good. I hated menthol cigarettes and fell in love with that liquid. I add menthol to almost any flavor it will work with now.

Yes I agree.
But some, not all, find 24mg to be way too strong so if rather not have him/her be disappointed or overwhelmed.
Plus he/she could mix them if they were the same flavor to get a content in the middle.

Yep. :D Mt. Baker Vapor RY4 is a very different RY4 though - I love it myself but it is a rich flavor. I have some Dekang RY4 that I like - different to Mt Baker Vapor. The EC Blend RY4 was a bit weak. I like the Dekang - sweet flavor with the one I got.

I have never tried it,
I keep edging near the add to cart button but I can't bring myself to click it...

BTW, I'm sure soliciting members on here through emails/PMs is breaking the rules. Especially when they're new and don't know what they should be buying. I will provide proof to any admin/mods upon request.

I am done arguing at this point.

I meant to add that I can also provide proof to any mods on request.

They stated they are a 2-3 PAD smoker so I doubt they'll find 24mg liquid to be too much. I have read many posts on here contradicting that though.

I was a pack a day smoker and found 24mg to be a good starting point. Doing that and getting a good mod (a Chuck, are they even around anymore? Still carto infancy) was what made me quit smoking. I think starting at 24mg and going up or down from there is a good starting point.

Also, I would like to say thank you to several people for letting this thread get back on track.

edit: I just realized I pretty much posted the same thing as was quoted. :laugh:

That's your opinion, I won't argue.
I was just basing it on what some other people have said.
But starting around the 20-24MG mark should be ok.

Crazy the amount of knowledge we know but don't think about because it's a habit to do them. Cleaning, dry burning, filling, how to vape! lol

Quick search on youtube:
How to clean and dry burn a clearomizer
How to clean and dry burn a clearomizer - YouTube

It's just one way to do it, personally I just take it apart, run everything under hot water, dry with paper towel then dry burn (quick 2 or 3 sec press on the battery button with the clearomizer connected (no tip on so you can see the coil), let it cool 5-15sec, rinse and repeat till your coil turns fully red in those 2 or 3 seconds).

Coil: resistance wire wind up in round (coil) around the wick, heats up the juice being "sucked up" by the wick and transform it into vapor.
Wick: made of lots of material but often Silica, will suck up the juice from the tank or clearomizer so that he can be turned into vapor by the coil.

Err I hope I didn't made too many mistake, just figured I'd give a basic since you went with clearomizers (clearos).

Well I put an order in for the 900mah and 2 flavors of 24. I hope I can figure out how to fill it up...

You will have a lot of help on the way, also youtube is awesome as you can learn so much from videos, just type in "CE4+" since that's the type of clearos you ordered and you will get reviews, howto's and more!

Am off to bed hehe, good night and happy vape!
