I've been reading all these praise for Kick Bass Vapor liquids...but i just dont know whats the big deal.

One of the stand out liquids that everyone seems to be in love with, is their OMG liquid.

For me its like OMG this liquid sucks.

Why? The liquid is waaay too thick for any atomizer or cartomizer i have...which are like the main ones.

I have had this liquid for awhile now....it doesnt work right with any of my 510 atty's i have tried...actually...its poison for them.

Now that i'm getting into using tank systems...it's also poison for 510 boge cartomizers.

Even when i wanted to sacrifice a brand new atty to use the liquid...the vapor produced wasnt that much. I have 4 liquids from Kick Bass vapor and they are all too thick, dont produce any throat hit, and dont produce much vapor. The OMG being the worst of them all.

The flavor however is top notch and will give credit where its due.

*just finished clearing out all the KBV OMG liquid out of my cartomizer because i stupidly thought it was going to work.

it does seem pretty thick for a carto, but you can order it in different pg/vg ratios

I use an atty and it works ok for me

I was not overwhelmed by alot of the flavors people rave about- RKT, GBC, choc cake, but I do really like the snickerdoodle and mint truffle. One thing I like is that their juice does not seem to have the funky perfumey taste that many I have tried do. its pretty smooth

One of KBV's flavors that has run for days on my gear (Boge 2.0 cartos, echo cartos, and 510 atomizers) is the Hummingbird Nectar. Mainly I think the reason for this is because it's almost clear, without my coloring to it. It's a very subtle flavored juice. I've used it at 70pg/30vg at 24mg. Another one of their flavors that lasts a bit longer than the others is Pineapple Shake, and slightly less than that is the Rice Krispy treat.

i have like about half of the KBV flavors that i have tried, OMG is not one of them. i tried OMG in my first KBV order and i still have about 2/3 of the 15ml bottle left after over 2 months. their juices are pretty clean tasting as mentioned above. i have since completely went DIY and the only place i still buy juice is Bounty Hunter from NLV, always will.

KBV is a great vendor though, maybe give them another shot at the 70PG/30VG ratio if the 40PG/60VG ratio is too thick for your liking.

Incidentally, one of the flavors i have is hummingbird nectar...which does seem less thick. It still doesnt produce much vapor and throat hit at all though.

I do agree that their juice are pretty clean tasting (awesome tasting too)...but they are not the only ones in the market that have great clean tasting juice.

Dont get me wrong, i had a great experience with them (as a company)...i had absolutely no trouble with my order. Just that for the amount they are hyped in this forum...their products didnt meet my expectations at all, except for the great taste they have.

I use primarily cartos, and almost exclusively KBV juices. I've never had a problem with the liquids gunking up my cartos faster than a week.

I will say that I was dripping Candy Bar last night and that's a flavor that will hang around in an atty!

Could i ask what pg/vg concentration you use?

KBV only offers two PG/VG variations:

40PG/60VG
70PG/30VG

i have tried both ratios, and both produce great vapor, the 40/60 obviously produces more. i really like the 40/60 ratio, the vapor is THICK and i have no issue when i use it in cartos.

what ohm rating are your 510 attys? what voltage are you using these at?

I have no problems with OMG. been about 10 days now on same 808d cart. Ive found that with thicker juices, priming the wick before you start to draw is pretty important. When I start to draw I want the sizzle to sound wet, not dry, if that makes any sense. Also sometimes if its not producing enjoyable wet vapor, i will do a quick 2sec blow out into a paper towel. Sometimes too much liquid on the coil, can taste dry and not produce vapor.

i just recently started getting their liquids, they have some flavors that people rave about that i cant stand, and some of them that i really like. i use a different atty for each flavor, joye 510 2ohm and boge 3ohm and have not had any problems, i use the 60vg/40pg ratio and i have used a bunch in boge 3 hm cartos with no problems. just remember taste is what ou like. for example, i think mommas angel wings tastes liek burnt rice, i couldnt stand it, i put it up for trade and had 3 pm's within minutes for people who wanted it and use it almost exclusively. the omg i wasnt a big fan of either, its not the worst i can vape it but its in my emergency stash, but birthday cake and Joocy fruit are in my top 3

Im beginning to think that i got a faulty batch of eliquids....mines were made on 6/8/11.

All of them mess up my atomizers and/or cartomizers and dont produce the thick vapor some people are getting.

I also have Bobas Bounty which i think is also kind of a thick liquid...but it works pretty nice on any 510 atty and cartomizers i have tried.
