Hey Everyone!!!

This is my first post and I just wanted to say the last analog I smoked was New Years Eve 2010!! I am a former analog smoker for 25+ and have to say I feel great!!

I have been using pre-filled carts and have decided to try to fill my own blanks. WOW, what a difference!!! Love the litecigusa juice!! Cinnabon is awesome!! Looking forward to trying the Cappuccino.

Does anyone have any favorites they recommend?

Being still a bit new to this I appreciate any advice that can help improve my experience.

Thanks...

I am real fond of Vapor4Life WOWbacco. Their cartomizers are for KR808D-1 but they sell the juice too. It's a strong cocoa tobacco and at low nic levels I can't even really smell any tobacco in it. I love it. Their WOWBoy is the same with a bit of mint added. Sign up for their mailing list in the lower left of their front page - they have great sales, usually around holidays or big sports events.

I am also enjoying Tasty Vapor Butter Cream and Backwoods Brew Vanilla Bean because I like those kinds of vanillas. I also use the vanillas to cut overflavored or bitter fruit flavors. Backwoods Brew also has nice Peach and Blueberry juices.

FreedomSmokeUSA - I like their oRYental 4 (a very sweet caramelly tobacco) and their Cocoa. And when I was into strong tobacco flavors I vaped their Desert Ship. And I like their Voodoo - a mystery flavor that to me tastes a bit like fruit and a bit like some spice (cinnamon?) - it's nice.

Velvet Vapors Raspberry Ginger Ale is an excellent juice - I get their Velvet PG/VG blend. I also like their Vanilla Almond Tobacco which does not have much tobacco.

I like fooling around with the Flavor Creator at Gourmet Vapor where you can mix up to 4 flavorings in increments of 10% to make your own flavor. I don't make mine public unless they come out well. It's hard to make good ones without know the brand and strength of the flavorings - like 10% pomegranate overpowered the other 90% of one juice I made. If they need tweaking I leave myself notes in the description box like "try raspberry instead". They don't have sales often but they are often good sales when they do - sign up there so you'll get their sale notices.

Hey dormouse,

Thanks for the recommendations! Looks like I have a lot to look forward too in trying out new flavors. That Raspberry Ginger Ale sounds tasty!!

I am a little apprehensive in experimenting with mixing, just because I am not sure what I am doing. Are there special tools (measuring devices, etc..) that I should have? Is there a "better" way to fill the carts?

PS I am using the KR808D-1 batteries from smoketip.

Thanks...

Hi and welcome to ECF. It looks like you're a neighbor of mine since I live somewhere too. Seriously though, from litecigusa I like their High Caliber Killa Vanilla. The Irish Creme and Coffee Espresso are pretty good too. Mostly I buy from VaporBomb.com though. They have some of the best fruit flavors if that's your thing.

Man, all those flavors sound GOOD!!! Do you think litecigusa High Caliber produce good vapor? It was really good the first couple puffs then slacked off. I am wondering if I filled the cart up enough?

The High Caliber juices from litecigusa are a 70/30 blend and produce good vapor in my equipment. Altsmoke also carries High Caliber but it's a 50/50 blend so it may produce more vapor than the 70/30. I haven't tried theirs so can't comment on it though.

Hey AttyPops,

I dig that avatar!!! Would it bother you if I figured out how to copy and use it here? If so I understand...

Thank you...

You are welcome to use it... but make it your own. Pull it into paint.. change the eye color and hat color. Maybe add a feather in the cap or something, so they don't look identical.

Also, you may wish to google "avatar creator" and find some sites you like so you can create your own avatar starting pic. Then pull it into paint (or paint.net) and add text on top.
