I was just reading about different liquids and alot people seemed to regard Dekang liquid with disapproval. Why is this? Forgive me, I don't have any experience with it.

I'd trust dekang more than most, and the flavors are typically good when they manage to get them in the right bottle, and when the caramel doesn't taste like buttered popcorn.

Never had a problem with dekang.

Its all a matter of taste....literally.

I bought three 10ml bottles last week and I think it tastes weak and produces less vapor compared to the TW, JC, and Volcano factory cart juices I've been using. I've got friends that say Dekang is their favorite stuff. I have heard that flavor fluctuates a bit from one lot to another. It does have one good point though....it's cheap. You can buy 30ml's of Dekang for half of what it costs for 10ml of other brands elsewhere.

My friends seem to be getting more vapor out of their Dekang then the stuff I picked up, but they also use 510's while I use an L88b.

Everyone's tastes are different, and so is their equipment. Just experiment with small samples of different brands and eventually you'll find the brands/flavors that suit you. If not, theres plenty of info in the DIY section to help you make your own stuff to suit you.

Good Luck

Dekang's quality control stinks lately. Inconsistent flavoring and lately the liquids I've bought are weak or perfumy to the point of not being able to tell what it is supposed to be. Even supplier's with custom recipes can't keep them the same.

If you find one you like, you better stock up on it!! Most likely it won't be the same in the next batch. I've given up on Dekang for now, and gone to buying from Tasty Vapor.

They have some flavors I love but it's been a crap shoot with what may be in the bottle lately. I got 2 bottles of DK-Tab recently from a vendor. 1 was right, the other was Hilton from the taste and comparing to a bottle I had of it, definitely not DK-Tab ( both labeled the same from the manufacturer) Noticed the color difference first and thought odd.
Caramel is another that I've gave up on, I hate Pina Colada.

This is the point where I step in and ask "who supplies Eastmall's e-liquid" :confused:

YEA WHO I WANNA KNOW AS WELL8-o

Hope this is not too late, being 6 days after your question. I just saw this thread for the first time.

All the bottles of liquid (several hundred ml) I've bought from Eastmall had the tell-tale "YNDK" embossed on the lids, which means it is Dekang.

According to the forum member "dekang" (a representative of Dekang themselves), "YNDK stands for YunNan DeKang".

I got that liquid from Eastmall back in July, so it's possible they could have changed suppliers since then. Your best bet might be to just go to the Eastmall sub-forum and ask. Di, Ed, or even David himself may give you the definitive and current answer.

Hope that helps...
