Which ones did you get?
After changing my cart 3 times, I decided on 555, House Blend, and Wrangler Light. I already have my next cart lined up with Patriot, Vita Bella, and Commercial.
Another way to look at it, NETs are the actual fruit, synthetic tobaccos are the fruit flavored candy. No real fruit needs to be involved in making a green apple jolly rancher, no tobacco needs to be involved making an arti-bacco. Just like somebody might love green apple ranchers and hate eating green apples, some love synthetic Turkish and hate the flavor of a Turkish vape made with Turkish tobacco.
Alongside any similarities, there is very noticable differences in flavor, feel, and performance. Some synthetic/chemically made flavors can get surprisingly close to the real thing. Not so much yet with tobacco, it's pretty easy to spot an arti-bacco, and NETs are way closer to the real flavor of tobacco.
I actually have more respect or arti-baccos after vaping NETs for a while. They have their own unique and enjoyable flavor, and while maybe not tasting much like real tobacco they have their own charms, and work for me when wanting a tobacco experience (just not the TRUE tobacco experience of NET). They also vape much cleaner than NETs.

So sayeth the self-proclaimed "Ambassador of Vape" and so it shall be.
Makes me glad I got into this N-E-T Coventry. I have been chain vaping Ahlusion W&A Sassy for 3 days straight...but this Coventry is most outstanding. I have 5 full tanks of different NET's on my desk right now and I haven't touched anything else all morning. This stuff is GLORIOUS.
There bb and gj are good juices but to be honest with ya I like Havana gold and flue cured better by them...
Okay, so I did my first build for the Phoenix V4. Wrapping the wire is more difficult than it looked. I still don't have an ohm meter or any sort, so I am winging the resistance. I ended up with eight wraps on the 3mm Ekowool silica. How do you keep the silica from unraveling?
On my second attempt (didn't have enough wick or wire the first time, and I was concerned about going sub-ohm), I threw it on the MVP to check for shorts and hot spots. Had to even the wire out on the bottom since it was a little close in some spots. Got it sorted, nice even glow from the inside out, no shorts (MVP does have a short protection circuit and cuts off when indicated, so that's something).
Now the RDA hits like a champ! Huge TH, tons more vapor and the flavor is spot on.
And I didn't blow my head off
Also, someone PIF'd me some 18mg elquids, so that should help with the nic sicknessHopefully something I can mix and match.
Heavenly Army is kicking the flavor, warmth and vapor is unreal with that tiny hole. 50/50 mix with HHV is just dang perfect! Dragon's Fire will rock on this build!
But I was or still amMan, I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything!

Glad you are enjoying that V4 and managed to give it a satisfactory build, Jef.
I haven't touched the V5-V8 as yet in the co-op order I got for the V4-V8. All the atomizers are pre-installed so I wanted to use one at a time. I started at the V4 and I have enjoyed it so much I haven't moved onto the next one. What I like about the V4 is that even though it's a small dripper I find I can bring to work and not get leakage. I am reluctant to take an Igo-L to work or out and about because it can tend to look and it doesn't look so good on an ego twist. The V4 looks great on an Ego. Very suitable indeed.
I've run a few juices through my V4 since I started using it. I've used QnJ's fire cured and Turkish, then I moved onto Vita Bella. I don't know if it was the V4 or just some good steeping, but I got my first real glimpse of what everyone is talking about regarding Vita Bella's wonderful flavour. Now I am running Vapist Vapour's 3 NETS alternating between them. I don't know if I am just vaping wonderful juices or the V4 is performing really well but I have enjoyed everything I've vaped in it.
The Smoktech mini-RDA is the same as the V4, an ERA clone. Smoktech's has thumb-screws, but looks and works the same. The original Smoktech RDA (aka The Octopus) is quite a bit bigger. The airflow is different too, comes in from a side airhole that's in between the 2 o-rings and is directed upward to a hole in the base that aims at the coil from below. I've retired mine, any juice on the base goes into the airhole causing gurgling and leaking.
I have one coming from FastTech that has a screw on top cap. The airflow looks the same as the original RDA, but there's a tube at the base that's raised up so juice wouldn't get in their as easily. That was the one fix that would have made the RDA workable for me so I hope it's a winner. Not sure if it's regular size or mini, hoping for mini.

You seriously gonna try those? I would try Gold Member first, because those might permanently turn you off to a salty vape.

Perfect. Thanks for the info. Is there a RDA/RBA or clone you haven't tried?![]()
...Ahlusion might be down for the next two days because of a store opening. Am cry!
NOOOOO... I was going to order from them tomorrow, bright and early. I am at the last drop of Mango Lassi and must have.
Speaking of Ahlusion, I have a 15ml amber bottle of Honey Cured that is too honey for me, if anyone wants it, let me know. It has approximately 2-3 mls missing. Ordered about 3 weeks ago. 50/50 base, 12 mg nicotine.
