bump: thx hey everyone: i got about 8 flavors recently from MBV for the first time, mostly fruity with an add shot, 50/50, some desserts...
they seem to vape strange= i use subohm genesis set ups so wicking is never an issue, but MBV juices produce a lot less vapor than my other liquids (epipemods, fivepawns, jamesons, the standard- for comparison- even goodejuice or good life vapor) and instead seem to sizzle on the coils leaving a nasty residue....anyone else have this experience and have a solution? i have over 200ml of juice thats being wasted cuz its not really vapable imo???

Honestly it sounds like a coil issue. I haven't noticed a difference in performance on my genny with MBV. Is there a possibility of burning your juice? I had an issue running micro coils and a straw type wick that by the time the vapor reached the too of the coil it was basically boiling.

I love the spirals down the body of the v3 as well. And now with the addition of the rhinestones, I'm in girly heaven :wub: will eventually look at getting a skin for it as it starts to get scuffed up but till then, I'm quite enjoying the way it looks now (and I don't find it too slippery which I know was another complaint of many).




PS - I like your suggestion about using it as a weapon/personal protection device! This smiley seemed appropriate (ignore the spam part).

I don't use a Genny but in other setups I have used some of the juice needs to run lower voltage, the sweeter stuff tends to caramelize and could be your issue. As for vapor, I use a 50/50 in a protank (during the day) and my RDA's at night and still get plenty of vapor compared to other juice companies.

I see Stoneface already gave a couple recommendations for replacement o-rings but I'll throw EmpireMods out here as well.

Regarding dripping attys, I actually use and prefer EmpireMods Bridge Free LR510 1.5ohm atomizer over the Cisco spec ones myself. Less fussy and doesn't require any break-in period. I'd also definitely recommend the low-resistance over of the standard (even if you go the AV Cisco route) for best flavor.

Spegtoast.......I use the MBV RY4 and like it alot.....but it needs ALOT of love before you can fully appreciate it.:) Now, with that said, understand that this is my take based on my tastes...YMMV...as ALL tastes are different. It really does need a FULL MONTH of steeping.....:blink:(this was before I found my UC). Initially out of the bottle...it has a strange smell and taste, almost anise-like with something that's tough to define...not chemical...just a different taste I couldn't identify. It IS NOT a traditional RY4 at first, which I think is the reason alot of the reviews are off. After a GOOD steep, this is what I get...It has a very rich, dominican cigar flavor reminiscent of an Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 Flora Fina Cigar, with a very nice caramel/vanilla thing going on that is not overpowering, but still present. There is also a subdued slight licorice taste in the background which sounds bad, but actually goes VERY well with the overall vape....I LOVE this stuff..:drool: but it is not for everyone's taste. It is a very complex flavor that keeps you taking puff after puff and wondering to yourself "WOW! what is that?..." :) I would suggest if you try it, do a 15ml at first...my blend is 80pg/20vg with 18mg nic and 1 flavor shot. Hope this helps...happy vaping! :toast:

Thanks a lot! Your reference to the Cigars sold me! Cigars were my goto analog before I quit.

I always kept Fuente, Partagas, and Ghurka in my humidor before I quit. Since you're aware of the cigar taste...if you try the RY4 before it steeps......the Dominican cigar is VERY prominent...:drool: This is what I think a lot of folks describe as a "Licorice" taste.....JMHO! :)

Has anyone noticed the total lack of throat hit on their sour flavors? I have been using 12 mg nic for a while now and last month I got some Sour Yum at 12 mg and no throat hit at all! This month I got some Tropic Thunder at 12 mg and no throat hit! I had seen they have some flavoring called CAPSICUM that says it can increase throat hit.

Has anyone ever tried this and how does it affect the taste of the juice?

Thanks!

Has anyone ordered from MBV in the last 24 hrs? Within a couple hours of placing my order yesterday, I received the notification that the post office received the shipping info (and tracking number), but nothing has changed since yesterday. Normally that is quickly followed up within the next couple of hours that the shipment was accepted at their post office.

MBV is definitely allowed to have a delay (which would make them more like other companies), it's just not like them...and now I am wondering if my poor package fell off the truck and didn't make it to the post office. Or it could be that the USPS tracking is off...
