I've looked at ecblends but haven't ordered from there yet. Might take stoggys advice and try some of those stardusts. And my bday isn't til 29th of next month. You just know I won't be able to wait that long!!

I really think you will like the stardust. If you get one, just give it a bit of time. It took a few minutes for the wicking to get really wet before it seemed to "come alive". But once it came alive, wow its a GREAT vape! And it seems to give a sweet spot to your liquids, its hard to explain til you've tried it.

Give ECBlends a try - the thin mint w xtra flavor tastes just like a girl Scout Cookie, only guilt free, and the dragons blood is kind of a creamy fruity (strawberry-ish) flavor -so good that I've gone thru nearly 50ml since Saturday 3/3! Their prices do not reflect the quality of their juices. Even the non smoker/ vaper boyfriend loves them & has me order him 0 Nic to vape :) code 10020 will give you 20% off, making a 5ml bottle only 2$. I love them (obviously lol)

I love that you're already planning for your birthday :p

Jammin -the stardust sounds terrific! Kind of like a tank - I like no muss no fuss vaping! I'm a chain vaper, so glad I'm not chain smoking anymore! :D:beer:

I just recently tried the Dragon's Blood, I think I actually first heard of if from you Cheeky. I was kinda caught in the middle with it, I could actually taste something decent in it, but overall just reminded me of a bad fruit punch type flavor. I ordered extra flavor or double or whatever they call it, which may have changed the flavor, but I've had way too many weak, or subtle flavored juices. Have you tried it with the extra flavor, and what did you think compared to the normal? I also ordered a couple of other flavors from them, and again didn't think they were bad, but not good either, so the quest continues... :(

Mornin all.. just ordered a couple Vision Ego LR clearomizers from litecigusa. Are these the ones you guys use? I only got a couple, so if they suck I won't be out much. They also had a nice carry case on sale so got one of those too.. and a couple drip tips.. I find I really like the drip tips! Going to the casino tonight, so this is the big test for my kGo's.. I would burn through my little V2s in no time,, and I could burn through two Elite's on a good night too. You know I'll likely take every battery I've got and a ton of cartos with me,, I used to chain smoke in the casino, now I chain vape! Not unusual for me to go through 8 or 9 cartos.. but I change them before they're dry,, and sometimes I just don't like the flavor I've got on there... some of them just don't go with beer! Hope you all have a good Saturday.. wish me luck,, if I don't lose my ... tonight I'll be able to buy more juice tomorrow!!

the dragons blood with xtra flavor is okay when it arrives, but if you give it a little time to steep (about 5 days), it becomes creamy & dreamy & I can't put it down. Anything with caramel also seems to need steeping, but fruits (pear, peach cantaloupe, watermelon) are wonderful immediately as are the thin mint & peanut butter cup :)
Some flavors do turn a bit perfumey with xtra & double xtra flavor, so you may want to let them steep or leave the cap off over night...

have fun tonight Luvinit! Win big so you can buy lots of goodies tomorrow! :beer:

I'm also testing my batteries tonight - Huge annual party celebrating all of the March birthdays in our circle of friends (15 of us this year - 2 Huge sheet cakes to get all of the names lol) - it starts this afternoon & goes until tomorrow! I'm bringing both kgo batteries, all 3 Mistic batteries, both chargers, full tank, extra juice and plenty of Mistic carts - I don't want any analogue temptation, so I'm not leaving anything to chance! :screwy:

Cheeky.. you sound like me!! I'll be taking three V2 batts, two Elite batts and both kGo's.. all fully charged. I've also got about 15 cartos all filled and ready to go too. Hmmmm, maybe I should throw a couple bottles in there too! If we're there as long as we usually are, I'll need it all!! (Sad, right?) I hope you have a great time at your party!!

Stoggy.. you and I will probly be testing out our clearo's at about the same time! I sure hope they're as good as everyone says... Jammin recommends them, so they gotta be good!

Jammin.. what you up to today??
Wanted to tell you guys.. I won a facebook contest with Stealth Vapors. Won two free bottles,, got them today. I won a bottle of his Spa Day, a bottle of his Menthol and he also threw in a bottle of Samoan Cookie and two drip tips!! I was thrilled! Freebies on top of freebies! Never been a menthol smoker and don't really like the minty ones but that menthol one is awesome! Just lightly mentholy, not overpowering, quite nice actually. And I have no idea what that Spa Day is, but it's FABULOUS!! Very smooth and slightly sweet.. I think I detect a touch of strawberry, which isn't a favorite of mine either but whatever he's got mixed in there is seriously good stuff. Andrew's a great guy,, very friendly, check him out.

Have a great day everyone.. slots are callin.. I gotta go:w00t::w00t:

Mornin' luvinit! I am up to absolutely NOTHING today. Woke up at 2pm and now I am watching a jersey shore marathon. I feel about as useless as a tit on a bull. lol

Hi all! The party was a huge success & lots of fun. I swapped the kgo & Mistic throughout the night, and only had to charge them when crawling into one of the guest beds :) I was really happy not to have to charge or refill the tank in the middle of the party! I did come to the realization that I vape a ton more when I'm home, in all likelihood because it's something to do when bored (I've been home on medical leave for over 4mo now - ugh). I think I converted a few analogue smokers, as well as a few people who tried junky disposables in the past & gave up on them. Yay! At the least, I got people to stay thinking about PVs as a viable option to replace analogs, which makes me happy.
I did notice that the kgo got tons of attention, while the Mistic blended right in, so I think the Mistic will be my incognito vape of choice :cool:
You've all sold me on the clearomizers - I'll be ordering some next week. In the mean time, I'm really loving the tank! Not having to top off all the time is terrific!
Hope everyone had great weekends!

You hit the nail on the head "something to do when bored". I also do not vape as much at home as when I am out. It just doesn't seem to have as much of an ironclad hold on me like smoking. Huge win for vaping!

So glad your party went great cheeky! (and great job on the possible converts!!!! you go girl!!! )

There were well over 100 guests at the party, many of them smokers or social smokers who have a love/ hate relationship with cigarettes, so possibly converting a bunch of people to vaping was pretty darn easy :) since this is an annual party it will be interesting to see if I am still the only vaper next year - I'm hopeful that I wont be - I want to keep celebrating my birthday with these people for a very long time! :beer:

Luvinit - how was your day with the grand babies? How old are they? I bet that if they're old enough they're thrilled that you're vaping instead of smoking!!

Mornin guys! Cheeky, so glad to hear your party went well.. and bonus if you got a couple converts! I've converted four so far. Ohhh, grandbabies.. let's see, I have 6. My son has four kids, but they live in Michigan so I don't get to see them,, they range from 8 to 2. The two I had on Sunday are my husband's daughters kids,, one is 4, the other is 3months. The daughter and her bf are drug addicts, and the babies have been taken from them, and live with the exwife and her husband. We try to take them whenever we can to give the ex a break. I give her a ton of credit for what she's doing,, I couldn't do it! Not 24/7 anyway. There's a reason young people have children :ohmy: They're beautiful kids, but totally screwed up thanks to their stupid parents. Been difficult,, and I picked the middle of this mess to quit analogs!! Thank GOD for this place and the vaping world, I surely would never have been able to do it without my pv's! Cheeky,, I forget,, what kind of tank are you using?? Jammin,, do you use tanks?? I've got some clearomizers coming this week but I'm starting to think tanks might be the better way to go.. mostly cuz if I'm awake, I've got my kGo in my hand... all day!! I've even become quiet the expert at the stealth vape at work:2cool: The girls I work with know,, if they smell something a little funny, it's usually just me! They laugh at me. Seriously, I couldn't live without this thing.. well girls,, I hope you have a great day!! Think I'll go check my tracking #s and see when I can expect my packages! (YAY)
