Well I just loaded up some strawberry shortcake into a fresh Boge LR carto. Sadly I think something is wrong with my carto, as the juice smells wonderful, sweet and strawberry-like. But upon vaping it is very dry on inhale, not sweet at all, and tastes like I am smoking strawberry flavored incense (has a very chemical-smokey taste to it). And the vapor smells like some kind of ultra overly strong potpourri, my whole apartment become saturated with this smell after only a few puffs 8-o.

I seriously doubt this is how the juice is supposed to taste like, but now I don't want to take the risk and use up another fresh carto (or waste more of this juice that I know HAS to be good based on how it smells). Although at this point my brain has now designated this juice as offensive, so no matter where or how I vape it, I will always be reminded of this occurrence when I smell it. (I am extremely sensitive to smells and tastes and my memory for specific smells is borderline super-human).

This blows! Stupid cartos, I hope I didn't get a bunch of bunk ones!


What do you guys use to vape Ms. T's juice? What voltage, what resistance? My Boge carto clocks in at about 2.2ohm, and I am vaping at 3.3V. This particular resistance and voltage has worked great for me in the past with other sweet vapes I have tried.

Well that's good, cause now I know I am not vaping at too low of a resistance (which can sometimes ruin sweet flavors or make them taste burnt).

It has GOT to be my carto, I am thinking it was burning the juice rather than heating it up to a vapor. Cause I have never had a juice so fragrantly smell up my apartment like that before. And the taste on inhale was almost bitter with no flavor at all (like what I would imagine smoking an artificial flavor would be like).

Well I'll just set the juice aside for now and perhaps I will try it again when I get my Fluxo's in a few days. I will likely rip open another carto and try some cake batter. Hopefully all my cartos aren't flawed, as I did get them at a almost too-good-to-be-true price (although it was from a new vendor, so they were likely selling cheap to get their name out there, not because the cartos were second rate... at least I hope not).

Down to almost the end of my 1st but definitely not my last little bit of Strawberry Shortcake. I love it. I love it so much that I am having to use it only once a day so that I can make it last as long as possible. This is THE vape for me. Placing my order tonight, and even though it might take a little while until it gets to me, it is soooooo worth the wait. I am still working on my Juice Fruity gum, but I haven't even made a dent in it hardly because of the Strawberry shortcake love affair I have going on right now.

Ms. T, sell this stuff by the gallon. I will vape it forever. :)

Cinnamonkey I can relate, I am down to about 4ml of the SS and save it for certain days, which happens to be today ! I really like this SS myself too, probably Sooners fault :lol: he's the SS connoisseur.

My recent order I placed some Strawberry Gum in the cart based on a review by Str8 so that may be an option you might try.

:lol:Just added my order to the status thread. Once I get that order in, I should be ok for a few weeks....maybe.:D I popped that order of strawberry gum in for a taste test. I love the shortcake. I am counting the days...I may have to start writing morbid love poems to the empty shortcake bottle in mourning and memory.:facepalm:
