Revisited a couple of flavors tonight. Berry treat is MUCH better now, I can taste the bit of maple in it and really like it. It's a bit harsh for me though, I normally go 50/50 and it's MBVs stock 80/20.

And cantaloupe. Sigh. I have two bottles of the stuff (that's what I get for ordering so close together and not specifying) and it's just unvapeable for me. My son likes it though, so it's all his. I can't get past it smelling like nail polish remover, and it tastes like it too. Not sure how the kid likes it..but we never seem to agree on flavors anyway.

Anyone try tiramisu yet? I have a BIG order coming, though it's mostly because my mom put in for 10 (!) T2s.

A side note: I went ahead and took the risk and put my freckled lemonade in an MT3. It's been there for five days with no issues. YMMV.

SO. I probably should post this in the APV thread but I like you guys best :) I am thinking of a mod. I really, REALLY like evods and tolerate MT3s since the MT3S upgrade came out. What is out there that works well with these? I very much dislike fussy tanks and also very much dislike protanks. Is there anything out there for me? I mostly am interested in being able to replace batteries instead of having my ego twist run out. I also have an ego VV2 mega (ha, that's a joke..needs charged 2-3 times a day). Sometimes after searching I think I should just stick with an ego twist. Thoughts? Is it worth it or am I just as well off with a twist?

Just finished Sharknado. Is there some reason why that I'm craving to watch Attack of the Killer Tomatoes?

AoTKT is great! Almost as "good" as Killer Klowns From Outer Space :)

On topic...I didn't know that Hawk Sauce was a tank cracker.

It's on the list but survey says...AHNHNH! Not a cracker.

You would probably want a mod with eGo threading since you are using the Kanger products. I have 2 VamoV2s, and I like them very much with the Kangers. Unfortunately, they require an adapter...BUT, I've read that the Kangers fit fine on the Vamo V3. I don't much like the way it looks, but I would still buy another Vamo if I was looking for a nice beginner mod. If you can wait 10 days to 2 weeks (it might arrive sooner), give a look at the Vamo V3 at Fast Tech. There are other places to buy them, but you can also purchase batteries and a Nitecore charger for great prices. PM me if you want more information so that we don't derail the thread. I'd be happy to chat with you about it. :)

Mine are at 2g as well, might take them down to 0g but any further and they have a hard time closing up when you get older. Not that I really plan on taking them out, will be rocking them late into my 80's thanks to vaping :) Do you do any fire dancing, those women are something else.

Right, I don't want to get them to the point of no return, some say that's 2g, others say 0g, but even so, I don't think the 0g is too big and gaudy looking anyway, plus I have a 2nd lobe hole in each, plus several cartilage piercings too so having too many 18g holes is too boring.

I've danced with palm torches once, but that's all so far. But I do have several friends quite skilled in fire dancing with hoops and staffs so it's only a matter of time before they get that fire hoop around my waist too (last time I was at one of the fire spins, I didn't have the best kind of shirt on for doing fire hooping so I opted out, but we have fire spins at least once a month now during the summer so as I said, soon... :p

Cafe Coffee 18mg 50/50: This is unapologetic strong black coffee on the inhale, with a noticeable throat hit. It has the same bitterness as unsweetened coffee, with a slight caramelized sugar sweetness in the exhale. My first impression is a very one-note flavor, but vaping more of it reveals a fuller, richer experience. It took some time for it to settle on my tastebuds, and it is a very strong flavor that will remain in your wicks so requires a dedicated device. I also noticed slightly less vapor production with this flavor than many other 50/50 mixes. If you favor strong black coffee, then this might be for you.

I had to reread the heading on this one to see you were referring to Cafe Coffee because as I was reading it, it sounded exactly like how I would describe Caramel Coffee. They sound as if they're very similar, possibly just a stronger caramel in the caramel coffee, but otherwise, your description of the coffee itself and how the backnote comes out on the exhale... yup, exactly like Caramel Coffee.

TheGirlfriend I have some stuff I could probably throw your way. I'll PM you shortly with the list I've put together so far...


===========

I'm thinking of putting in an order later tonight or tomorrow now since I'm seeking a few new fruity vapes for my Summer Stash. I've got like 80% dessert/bakery flavors and only about 20% fruit (assuming you'd call stuff like Banana Pudding or Dutch Apple Pie dessert vapes and not fruit).

I'm thinking of trying Afternoon Delight since from what I recall ChaoticRamblings saying before, it's got more banana in it than Ocean Breeze, which is more pineapple. So since I'm still looking for that elusive fruity beachside drink (and ordering some Jamaican Rum as a mixer too), I figured I'd give this one a try.

Also, am I right that Thug Juice is less mentholated than Jungle Juice? Or is it the other way around? I don't mind a hint of mint in my juice, but I'm really not a fan of menthol, so if the menthol is overpowering the fruity taste, it's probably not for me. Note that I enjoy Hawk Sauce very much and can honestly say I don't taste any menthol in it at all, perhaps just a slight bit of mint. And I also consider mint, as in the herb itself, a completely different taste from menthol. Like the former, not so much the latter.

Oh and yes, since y'all was discussin' it, I currently have Whipped Cream in a 6mg 65/35 +1 blend but am planning to reorder in 0mg 50/50 +1. Yet another reason for me to get a new order in soon.

I asked for it in my usual 80/20 18mg and it's busy steeping. Glad to hear a tasty review.

I've been using Vamo V2s for the past few weeks and they're a big step up from egos.
Read the Vamo threads, there's a whole lotta (Vamo) love in there.
My evods, protanks, & vivi novas fit but the Vision Victory doesn't.

I like my SLB Ultramegaokego 1200mah. It lasted thru the day and recharged at night.
I used a USB passthru at the 'puter and a 420Spinner when hiking but still it's pretty good.
Since yours is a Mega it should be 1200mah. You shouldn't have to ever charge those 3x.
You must have gotten a bum ego.
There's probably a bad joke there somewhere but I'm tired and want to watch Graceland.

I get 15-20 hours of serious vaping from an AW IMR 18650 on the Vamo though.
It's also good for harsh or weak juice. I adjust the wattage to suit the juice :)

It sounds like I didn't "steep" them long enough. :laugh: I've never had issues with other plastic clearos but I'm going to pick up some mini protanks when more vendors start to stock them.

That's how I felt at first too. I loved the protank but evods tastes like plastic. Then one day I tried my evod again and loved it. When I'm traveling or other to e when I grab an ego I always have my evod with it. But as always ymmv

Just put in my first order...juices and hardware totalling about $175. Flavours include Thug Juice, Mojito, Hot Tamali, Utterly Nuts, Butterscotch, Salted Caramel, Banana Nut Bread, cola, Solar Flare, and Texas Sweet Tea. Ordered a Kanger T3, some Smok Redux tanks, a bunch of coils, a case, and a Winder battery. Soooo excited! Thanks everyone for the reviews. It helped me make some decisions.

I've tried both and it is almost the same. Cafe Coffee doesn't have as much caramel taste, it's just as sweet though. Hazelnut Coffee is very similar too except it has a definitely hazelnut taste. I'm really liking the hazelnut but that might be because I vape so much Mudslide that the nutty taste is different.

Thanks guys..will look into those!

Sorry for the off topic.
No apologies! I just didn't want to ramble on and create a wall of text. If the "new" Vamo V2s fit the Kanger products, I much prefer the look of those (and I would guess a nice wrap would look better too). Fast Tech also sells the V2. I can send you some links if you want.

Second Mowgli's recommendation for a VAMO, especially since you can pick one up from Fasttech for only $10 more than a twist/spinner/winder would cost ya. https://www.fasttech.com/products/1411/10004394/1376700

That link is for the v3 which I have, and I actually like the Vamo better than my Sigelei Telescope. The v3 has the upgraded OLED display of the Sigelei plus several nice improvements on it. On my Sigelei, I was never a fan of the single button system and having to go into the menu every time just to adjust voltage/wattage up and down. It became quite a PitA when dripping different flavors. Plus you can also check the current battery voltage and the attached atomizer resistance directly instead of having to change the LCD Display option like you did on the Sigelei. Though many people prefer the look of the v2 Vamo, I actually like the looks of the v3 better myself. (Hey I'm a girl and like the extra swirls and rhinestone bling, so sue me! :p ) Actually I don't think the Fasttech version comes with the rhinestones, but MVS sent me some extra so if you go that route and want some rhinestones to glue in, gimme a holler.

From my experience, the Cafe Coffee is pretty much a straight up black coffee flavor. I mixed it at 10% 80/20 PG/VG at 6mg. I have relegated it to a carto due to the fact the it gunks up the coils fairly quickly. I'm considering bumping up the mix to 13% and adding a few drops of hazelnut and whipped cream.

First week with my V2. I think they may have added the grooves in the V3 to add grip. The wieght of the V2 with the smooth finish tends to slide through my grip. I tend to put it down often so i dont have to pay attention to holding a good grip. My box Mod is way more comfy in this aspect.:2c:

I've been wish list shopping tonight and decided I want to try something vanilla. What do you think of the vanilla custard? I love custard and I love nutmeg! I've looked at vanilla cupcake too, but I'm especially curious about the vanilla custard...anyone??

The wife and I didn't care for the Vanilla Custard. It definitely has a spice likeness to it. Now that you mention it I bet it was a nutmeg taste I was getting. So if you love nutmeg it might suit you fine! What mg nic do you vape at?

interested in hearing what others have thought of morning vape. i was ambivalent about it at first, but been vaping it all day and has kinda grown on me. not sure if i would order it again, but it doesn't suck.
Mine has only steeped for 5 days, but I get a coffee/amaretto taste from it (and amaretto is a cherry-ish flavor, so that makes sense). I like it so far, but I think I'm a little more fond of my MBV "build-it-yourself" coffee flavor (Cafe Coffee, Sweet Cream, Hazelnut).

A couple people mentioned Ocean Breeze. It's not growing on me yet. I thought it would be a nice, hot summer day vape, but all I'm getting so far is pineapple. I'll give it more time and revisit it, but not digging it so far.

I got more MBV vapemail today - Banana Cream Pie, Get Razzled, Hazelnut Coffee, Jungle Juice, Sticky Bun, Sweet Texas Tea and Wild Cherry (along with 50 ml restocks of Cinnamon Roll and Butterscotch) - all 65/35 pg/vg, 24mg nic. Since I was spending a day on the lake in 110+ degree temps, I wanted cool/refreshing so I decided to take Wild Cherry, Get Razzled and Jungle Juice out with me for the day. The Wild Cherry was good right out of the mail - real sweet and tasty, I can already see this becoming a favorite. Jungle Juice has definite potential but is still a little "perfumey", so I'll give it a chance to mature - but if it goes where I think it's going to go, it will probably be on the reorder list. I can taste the Raspberry in Get Razzled, but the overall flavor is pretty weak right now - another one to revisit later. I'm really looking forward to trying all the others, but am going to try to hold off for a week or so to give them a fair shot.
