Vapor King has landed.

GPaul - Congrats!

Came to start a thread of my own saying the very same thing but since we got ours on the same day, thought I'd just give you a high five instead. ;)

I ordered it very late Friday night by USPS and then tried not to annoy the husband to death with questions about whether or not he'd checked the mail every day.

Seems I got batteries galore. I did get the kit I ordered and I had purposefully ordered an extra battery but didn't realize the USB pass-through was really yet another battery - thought it was just the cord.

So I have 2 regular, automatic batteries, the long single logo automatic battery and the pass through. I have a wall charger, car charger, portable charger, USB charger...I must have panicked when I ordered!

I didn't think my husband would give it a try but he has and he's quite impressed, too. I think we can both easily switch to this! In fact, I've not had an analog since the kit arrived!

I can't believe how much this is JUST like an analog!! My husband and I thought it would be cool to "smoke" in the house but we've actually continued to go outside. Seemed too strange to see the vapor whirling around in the living room.

Only difference I noticed was that it is a bit heavier than an analog and I use it with an ashtray just to have a place to put it but when I go to pick it up and take a drag I forget it's heavier and I've dropped it a couple of times - just onto the table, nothing serious. I can see that's going to take some getting used to but nothing major.

So, congrats again and may we both continue to vape our way to better health.

I bought a nebula/Vapor King/KR808D-1 and then stepped up to the bigger battery (Defender/Elegant) VaporNine DEFENDER Electronic Cigarette Starter Kit or THE ELEGANT EASY I like the bigger battery it is smoother and of course lasts forever. I also am a big fan of the passthru specially with a 50/50 PG/VG mix. the passthru is more like smoking to me. I got the 2A AC adapter from Madvapes and the car adapter from vapornine. here is another source for KR808 stuff KR808D-1 the 2 Amp chargers definetly are better than a usb port. also you really need to try some flavors, and I'll continue to recommend Backwoods brew http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...rum/94181-backwoods-brew-ordering-thread.html and FreedomsmokesUSA FreedomSmokeUSA once you try these liquids you will never go back to prefilled cartos

Thank you for the information. I see that the USB pass thru produces clouds of smoke that would make a Jamaican call the fire department. I did a little comparo with one of my analog ultralights. On the XL battery, it is very close to the same output. The pass thru however, now that's a serious producer. I guess it is the current? I cant wait to try some Backwoods. There is a certain underlying funkiness that I taste/smell in the carto's. I cant put my finger on it. It seems to be present in all the carto's.

Hi Erica! Thank's and best regards to you as well.

How cool is that? There are several of us that seem to be starting at the same time, with essentially the same outfit. I think we started pretty much right. You have enough gear to qualify as a retail operation! That is OK though, from what I can see this is a gadget lovers paradise and spares are a good thing to have around. Is the quality not just fantastic? I have a bone installed in my body that the docs charged me BIG for that does not look as good as this KR does. Seems like a good bargain.

Do you notice a certain taste/smell that seems to be prevalent in all the flavors?Are you getting this trace? I cant explain it. Sort of not quite burnt plastic. I could send you one of my daughters cakes. It is close. My 555-18 carto's (think Cowboy) have it.

I tried a green carto called "Mint Julip" it had the same taste but added the entire Polish Army marching accross my tongue. With muddy feet. And somebody peed a little. :confused:

I believe that Backwoods and empty carto's are going to be a big hit.

I got a kind of perfumey taste from the three V4L pre-filled cartomizers I tried.

Yeah, some "tobacco" flavors have that perfume note to them. I ordered a new "tobacco flavor" from Perfumer's Apprentice that was like that. I couldn't use it. Linda at PA replaced it with an equal amount of the "Tobacco Blend" in PG that I like. She's pretty great. If you start mixing juice I highly recommend her.
