It sounds lovely but you know what? I travel by air enough to be nervous about carrying a little bottle labeled "H1N1". Decant would be in order. ;)

You'd just have to transfer it into a bottle labeled something a little less discriminate, like oh, say "Anthrax" :laugh:

So I finally got one of these EVODs to try. It is purple and matches perfectly with my 400mAh purple Spinner, also new:

(seen with space heater and fat cat)

My experience with the EVOD so far can be described thusly:

GURGLE GURGLE SPIT GURGLE SPIT OUCH MY TONGUE GURGLE SPIT CLANK (sound of clearomizer being tossed across the room)

This same thing happened yesterday to my hubby. With an Evod. I ended up putting a new coil head in and blowing the thing out into a paper towel. I think we got a bad coil head. After I put a new coil head in and filled it back up it seemed to work fine.

Hey Shatner, how's that H1N1 from Nicoticket treating you? Notice any transformations going on as it ages? What do you think about their other juices? Although I hadn't planned on ordering anything for a few weeks (way too much choices in my current rotation right now) I've been thinking about placing an order from them very soon, since I've been fantasizing about a vanilla custard vape.

Full Throttle from GeJ's lab line really hit the spot tonight. Couple drops left and then on to High Octane. vaping like it's 2009 baby.

It's good. Very different than all the other tobaccos out there. Pretty sweet and nutty. I only tasted a bit last night; still letting it age some. The other flavors are also very good. I'm not sure which custard I prefer: VCV or Nicoticket.

I think so too, but last two batches had build quality issues. I bought two five-packs at a local vape shop and in each one two out of five had bad coils. I'm talking really bad, as in barely attached to the housing.

Email Keith at EM. I'm sure he'll take care of it.

Keith is great. Insisted on replacing an atomizer that I bought from him even though I told him it may have been user error on my part.

I just emailed him as my last two attys went kaput in a day! I mean, not lower performance, but the output of a bubble gum cigarette with blown out corn starch. All I used in it was Halo, so it wasn't gunk. Keith has always been good to me, so we'll see.

Anywho, I got my Darth V and so far Berserk is really good. Steeping will begin shortly after I sample more.

My first experience with a Kanger eVod was really gurgly and not good too. Cleaned out the tube, made sure the head was in tight, removed some flavor wicks, and it was better. Either something was loose or I overprimed it. If the hits start getting dry I remove a flavor wick or two, if it gets gurgly I add a flavor wick; it depends on how thick the juice is. 100% vg often works best without any flavor wicks for me.

Then I got 2 eVods from FastTech and the heads that were in them were crap, so I put new heads in right away. The Kanger one I have never leaks but the 2 from FT leak a little, so I'm sticking with the genuine eVods now.

Keith got back with me, as always, and all atty purchases are covered. Look for more variations on the attys in the future (maybe even a 510P).

Keiths awesome. Many places say their atties are only covered for d.o.a. or say they test them all so even that's not covered, so good on him. Sucks to start up a kickin atty and it loses it's spunk early. So far I ran about 4 ml of GeJ labaccos and a ml of Tampa from VS on the EM 510 I started up yesterday and it's still rockin the good vape. I ended up putting on my training wheels (drip sheild) as I never got over being an over-dripper.

BCC's are too inconsistent for me. I've only tried the Protanks though. Not certain if the smaller volume of liquid would help or hinder the Evod. I'll only use a Protank now if I'm desperate.

I've had no consistency issues with the Kanger brand Protanks... the clones that are out there also are another story.

My first experience with a Kanger eVod was really gurgly and not good too. Cleaned out the tube, made sure the head was in tight, removed some flavor wicks, and it was better.

I got some of the clone Evod's from FT as well... same experience... the heads really were terrible and the eGo threads were very inconsistant. I actually wouldn't have gotten them had I know they were not true Kangers but I let myself get fooled into thinking that the 10pk were cheaper because of a quantity discount... turns out it was a lack of quality discount instead.

If you all can forgive me for the lack of depth coming, I want to say that so far:

1) B.F.F. from Darth Vapers is good (reserving judgement for the coming two-week steep)

2) Berserk is good (reserving judgement for the coming two-week steep, but I will be vaping this the whole time)

3) Vanilla Tobacco extra flavor (I already liked this one and can't wait for the long-term, at least a month, steep)

4) Ghost Peach Tobacco (I got this as a free sample and boy am I happy I did. Immediate case for a reorder! Steeping with this one will only happen with a large bottle.)

I will review a couple (or all) of these soon, but as of now, I am proud to say I have made a good purchase (it's more rare than I let on and my last liquid purchase was a waste of money). Vanilla Tobacco is exactly how I remember it from last year. Consistency is to be expected here, so what you order will be able to be obtained again. Nice.

(All liquids were 24 mg and recommended ratio. Only Vanilla Tobacco, hey, Lady E, was extra flavor. ;))

I'd rather have a root canal. They spend weeks on the assumption that I have nothing else to do but play audits with them. Gee! How's it going milady? What's new - I know about the Sahara, what other fun and wonderful nets have you found. Oh! And Hey Jerms -and Mr. Mann too.

Miss Hula, it's hardly a new juice, but I have just discovered Proudest Monkey from QnJ -- and I love it! :)

Ouch! :cry: Sorry about the bad Evod experience -- I think DireWolf diagnosed the likeliest issue.

YAY!!! I'm so glad DV is working out for you, Mann!

It's not the tap dance itself, but it is the flooring. Ever watched a tapper on carpet? hahaha! It's a solid tobacco base. What kind of tobacco? I have no idea. It works though.

MMann, I know you're probably sick of saying it over and over, but what exactly are we vaping from DV? I went on the website and see they do their own extracting. They also call it tobacco flavoring. And I'm not seeing what kind of tobacco they are using. I like their variety of tobacco offerings.

The type of tobacco strains is not being revealed (you know I've tried), but it's different ones for some of the liquids. Some share the same base. (I can find that info in a second.)

They do run GC-MS testing per batch (no tobacco specific nitrosamines) on their distilled tobaccos (they operate a distillery). I have a suspicion that they're wholesaling extracts (no, not to HHV) because they're way too professional and on point with what they do to be so small and barely a blip on our radar. I think their distillery is near a red river of sorts. LOL. J/K (I think)

They don't categorize by NET (unfortunately) so you have to look for the disclaimer in the description. The flavoring part, if in reference to their NETs is just their wording, but if it doesn't say the liquid uses their extracted tobacco, it's mere flavoring.

Thanks.

I'm thoroughly, 100% burnt out on sampling. But I do try to pay attention to vendors I'd like to try down the road. I'll have to put DV on that list. Still need to try more MOV (only had the Apache and it is good).

Kinda neat that new juices are outpacing my ability to try them. That wasn't always the case. :)
