Well I think I may want to head down all roads, why limit myself to one genre of taste? :D
So far I have only tried sweet/fruit juices, but I'm interested in trying a tobacco, nut, chocolate, bourbon..etc. type of mix too. Maybe it will be my new love, maybe I will hate it, I just don't know what to expect.

if you like chocolate, put beserker on your list at ITC.

I like chocolate but I don't eat too much of it, one brownie is enough for me.
Vanilla on the other hands sounds pretty good! A creamy tasting vanilla to go with those creamy white clouds. :D

I am not picky when it comes to foods, I will eat or drink and enjoy almost all kinds of fruits, meats, veggies, nuts, coffees, desserts, liquors. My mama always taught me to clear whats on my plate, eventually I began to acquire the tastes for everything I guess. Except for the liquor and coffee, she told me those would stunt my growth, I acquired those tastes on my own. :D

i'd use these batteries as you're next step up, the iStick:

Eleaf iStick 20W Kit - $39.95 - WORLDofVAPE

mini nautiluses will work fine on them:

Aspire Nautilus Mini - $24.95 - WORLDofVAPE

i use the bigger naughties on them, but folks think they look odd. i don't care.

ITC is priced like MBV and the quality is pretty darn good:

ITCVapes Premium US Made e-Liquid

beserker and spoonlicker OG are really good.

The istick+ nauti are what I just went with as my little upgrade from my halo triton. :)

Deadmeadow did you decide what you're going to get? It's overwhelming trying to decide isn't it?! :)

Haha, well yall are probably getting tired of my indecisiveness so I don't want to say 100%..

But right now I'm THINKING it MIGHT be the Cloupor T6 for the mod.
Less than $100 100watts. More power than I'll probably ever need but there's room to grow and I think it's even upgradeable. You can change the battery easy unlike the istick or MVP (magnetic backcover too) and USB charging built in unlike the Sigelei. I decided for a T6 over a T8 because it's a little smaller using one larger 26650 battery instead of two smaller 18650 batteries.

For the tank I decided on the Eleaf Lemo. I decided instead of buying new coils all the time for a Nautilus I'd like to replace my own wicks so I chose a Kayfun "style" tank. I read they can even produce even more vapor (when set-up correctly) . I decided against the Ehpro Kayfun Lite v2 clone because the clear tank it comes with isn't glass, I like to see how much juice I have left easily, and it's hard to find quartz conversion kits for the V2, most of them are for the 3.1. I also read the Lemo has better airflow right out of the box while the Kayfun clone may require a little modification even with the airflow control completely open.

For juices I may still try the Five Pawn Mixology sampler pack if I have a bit of extra money leftover, but it is a little pricey, I may give ITC vape's juice a try first and see how it compares to mount baker.

Before I came to this forum I was completely lost and didn't understand the terminology on anything. This forum has taught me more than I could have imagined in such a short time. :)

Hi DM Are you "into" tobacco flavors at all, or steering clear? I ask because natural tobaccos tobacco absolute have some excellent flavors - cherry/vanilla/chocolate etc and may not remind you too much of tobacco at all.

Whatever you get, buy samplers at first, not full sizes. It's sooo easy to get carried away with beautiful photography and general hype. (personal experience:))

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll be sure to check them out! I agree, I was reading another thread here and someone was judging "Ahlusion" juice by the fact their website doesn't look as professional as others, I have never tried their juice but web design/photography experience is irrelevant to how much juice making experience they may have.

To be honest, I'm on the line on whether I'm that interested in trying a tobacco flavor or not.. When I first started vaping I thought a tobacco flavor would be best to help stay off smoking because of the psychological aspect.. But this hawk sauce although subtle is starting to grow on me and there's many flavors I'm excited to try that I don't even know if I even care for the smell/taste of tobacco anymore or want anything to do with anything that will remind me of it! :) But who knows, I could love it too.

Ahlusion is one of the finest liquid makers there is. The proprietor is an actual real life professional flavorist for such things as ice cream and so on. Really, I would very much recommend a visit there, especially if you want fruit/tea flavors in addition to tobaccos like vanilla wildwood. You can request extra flavor too.

Meanwhile if you think you may be interested in naturally extracted tobacco, I'd suggest my own favorite haunt, Heathers Heavenly Vapes. For naturally extracted tobacco ("net") Temptation, (chocolate) Serendipity a little of chocolate/coffee just general yum-ness, Legend (cherry), just to name a few, and the (non net) Blueberry muffin is highly regarded if you like …well….blueberry muffins. :) Diehard "never going to vape tobacco" fans have been known to try and never look back.

At the end of the day, it's whatever you personally like and enjoy that will be the key. Keep us posted.
