Okay, before getting into the nitty-gritty of it, lemme tell ya about my new toy. Don't everyone throw rocks at me yet D:

I just recently bought a Prodigy v3 and they sent me a sample of their melon juice to try. So, I liked it and have been on a fruity flavored kick lately. Sadly, the sample they sent me was only 6ml and is gone already. Now, the only fruity juices I've liked from V4L (that I've tried) are the choc-banana and orange juice. Most of the others I've tried are too floraly, or perfumy tasting for me. So, I thought I'd try to not be bias and try a bottle (expensive...$20 for 20ml) of juice from the mall kiosk, Knockout Vapor.

Well...tested a few drops in a 510 atomizer and iick. Thought it might just be because it was at 6 volts, so just bought a bottle anyways and filled up a fresh 510 cartomizer (identical to V4L KR808D-1 carts from inside inspection, just different threadings) that came with my prodigy. OMG, aack *cough cough*! They say that the juice I bought was more flavorful than their other fruity flavors, but that was just nonsense. It was very mild in flavor...couldn't taste much at all except the burning flavor I was getting. Their juice seemed the consistency of pure VG...probably why the burning as I couldn't get enough of it down to the bottom of the cartomizer.

So, I start talking to them about their juice and ask what the VG/PG ratio was and they had a confused look on their faces. So I mentioned how I mostly use juice from V4L and they say that they have alot of people that use V4L come up and talk to them. THEN they claim that V4L "waters down their juice!" THE NERVE OF THEM!! Seems they don't know much about juice contents...or VG/PG at least. But that could just be bad employee training or just them being pissy that so many people here in town use (and love) V4L stuff :p

So, that'll teach me from ever trying anything out at a mall kiosk again >.> But thankfully, I've got someone in town that sells V4L stuff too...he just doesn't carry many of the fruity flavors. I have an order of Wow Fruit Punch on order now...hope its really good :D

But anyways, just wanted to warn you about Knockout Vapors (KOV Kiosks.) Oh so expensive....$20-$25 20ml juices, $20 drip tips (yes you just get one), and everything else for way too much!

Take care and happy vaping :D

I wonder if they really have ever heard of V4L or if they say that about EVERYBODY......I'd be soooo tempted to go and ask them about a vendor that doesn't sell any premade juices and see what they say....lol.....

BTW....that'll learn ya:p

And another BTW....my hubby really likes the fruit punch....hopefully it will have enough pow for you too...best wishes with it:)

Whitecloud is way over priced Ms. Katz... But again, we learn from our mistakes... It's the only way to gain knowledge... Embracing failure is a good thing. :)

Indeed M'Dir. And White Cloud definitely has some strong points. I have no regrets about my adventures in e-cig land. It meant that when I finally came to V4L, I knew it was good, I knew why it is good, and can handle small problems with battery posts & threads needing attention. It is all worthwhile!

V4L was my first vendor. I got lucky :)
i don't consider V4L being my first (& only vendor) as being lucky. i did tons of research on this forum and others and made an informed decision...it was well worth the time i spent! that being said V4L rocks. i have a co-worker that has been using Puresmoker for years looking at buying juice, etc from V4L since i gave him a sample of my juice to play with hehe another convert :D

Same here. Spent a month researching and made the decision to go with V4L and now plan on staying with them for the long haul.

I can attest to this keela. I started with V2 (big mistake!) and as soon as I did, I went to all the smoke shops in town to see if anyone sold the stuff locally. A couple of them said the same thing about V2, who doesn't even sell juice, just carts. They tried to push their stuff on me instead, a brand called no. 7 I think. The funny thing is, they seemed almost angry at me for not being a smoker anymore lol.

To those of you able to buy V4L locally - that's awesome! I wish someone sold it around here. They'd get a TON of business from me and it would only grow with those I'm converting.

We will take over the world one smoker at a time!!! Muahahahahaha!! :evil:

I was a lucky one too and V4L was my first... had a good friend!!! But what kills me is why are these other vendors so unscrupulous. I've read tons of horror stories, we all have. For a product like e-cigs, that has the potential of rescuing so many folks from cigarettes it seems like folks would be committed to good customer service. But perhaps they are just preying on us addicts.

I can tell you why....it's easy money. You have people that are desperate to 1. quit smoking or 2. be able to smoke without the health issues or 3. be able to smoke where it's prohibited. We are addicts and will do what it takes to get our fix.

ANY glimmer of hope is latched onto with gusto by desperate people.

For example, I don't know about you, but I spent thousands of dollars on trying to quit smoking over the years....the "vendors" (big pharma ET AL) may not have been unscrupulous but the methods didnt work for me....but I jumped right on the bandwagon when the next latest came out....

I never thought about it before, but I wonder if our smoke shop would consider reselling (if V4L does that). The owner is a vaper...lol...yea kinda funny...owns a smoke shop and converted...but they get a lot of business from the bar across the strip..and he seems pretty knowledgeable....maybe I should go give him a card....

Yeah you are right... people are people and money is money. I've never spent a dime on smoking cessation gadgets although I have tried a few times to quit, what a train-wreck that was! When my friend showed be his V4L and I took a couple of drags I knew right then that it would work. I ordered my kit and finished the 3 packs I had left and that was it. Woo Hoo!!!
