Hello everyone,

All this e-cig thing is fairly new to me, been reading a lot lately on this forum and now I'm a member

Special thanks to Luma who pointed me to this forum and this particular supplier.

I'm almost ready as we speak to order.

I need a couple clarifications from the V4L owner/employees

-Can I get the ultimate kit and get 2 different battery colors? One plat. and one black all manuals?

-I saw a pics of a stainless steel looking battery without logos, do you still have that battery?

-Is the platinum really raw platinum color, does it look like metal?





Now the questions to all




-I'm a 10-12 cigs per day, B&H silver pack (used to be called special ultra)
The rating on the pack is 0.8mg-2.4mg???? weird! Anyways I was reading alot of post about the fact that 10mg-12mg ejuices are not strong enough for any type of smokers....

------So do you guys recommend 11mg or 18mg cartomizers
------And low or medium ejuices

Now that you know my daily usage... How long a cartz and a batt could last if I don't go crazy puffin..????




Next question:



Here is the list of the cartomizers that I will order:

Almond joy x1
RY4 x1
Mint x1
Pomegranate x1
Pina Colada x1
Chocolate x1

Do you think I made good choices? Any recommandations?


Next..........


What about some juices, what do you recommend?

I was thinking of getting:

5ml of each

Apple
Vanilla
Mint
Coffee
Banana



PS: I'm addicted to nicotine and smoke, not to the taste of tobacco so that is the reason there is not much tobacco flavors in my choices




Thank you all for the help, it's appreciated

Seb, soon to be vappin...

Well, since I am also Canadian, maybe I can help.

My analog choice was either Du Maurier Light or John Player Special.

I vape either 18s or 24s during the day....and 8s-11s at night. The 24/36/18 mg stuff was always tough for me to understand, and there are threads on it, but this is what works for me.

I've not tried those particular juices yet, but someone will chime in soon with their thoughts.

The flavors you got for cartomizers, yeah, you will be nicely set with those. I'd also go with Pineapple too, if I were you. If you only smoke 10-12 cigs a day, you should only use a cart a day, for sure. I was a pack and a half a day, and blew through over 2.

Anyhow, hope that helps a bit. Again, nice to have another Canadian with V4L.

Thank you, I forgot to add pineapple, I was going to ask for this flavor as the 5 cartz included in the kit!

How long does it take from the time you order to your doorsteps?

Anywhere from 4-7 days total from when its shipped out. USPS is pretty spot on getting it as far as Canada Customs, but then ya never know.

My experience has been never more than 7 days...no matter what I've ordered from the US.

That said, i do live in Toronto, and the customs center is just outside of town here, so I'd add an extra day or two at the most.

It's not too bad!

Any other opinions?

The first number is milligrams of nicotine per cigarette. The second number is milligrams of tar. You won't be getting any tar from vaping, thank goodness. If you're smoking 10-12 per day at .8mg, I'd bet that the 18mg level would suit you fine to begin with. You can adjust your levels once you've experienced that. I'm going to take a wild-arsed guess and propose that Hilton would appeal to you. Please let me know if I turn out to be wrong. Welcome to you!

SEB first off Welcome! Everyone has pretty much answered everything, the only thing I would like to include is you might want to vary your mg strengths for your cartos from 0 to perhaps 18 Maybe lower as you were less then a pack a day smoker. From what I can tell 8mg a day at 10 cigs so maybe go with the 8 mg for your main cartos. You have a nice selection of flavors. 8 mg to 11 mg is my main carto str and I smoked 2 packs a day of camels the 18, 24, and 36 are just still too high for me! The lower the str of cartos the more vapes you can take to appease your smoking action craving. the higher the less. Personally I love the action so the 8 mg lets me take as many vapes as I want without getting that too much feeling. All depends on how much you like the action of smoking I suppose. of the flavors you picked I have not tried them all but I can say that I definately like the coffee,vanilla, ry4, mint and chocolate, the others You have listed I have not tried,so I can't say! to me some flavors are a once a day thing and some once a week but a few are all day vapes and coffee is definately one of my all day vapes. Oh and pineaplle is delicious as well! Good luck to you and let us know how everything works out for you! Welcome to the V4L forums!

Well on canadian packs it's written: Nicotine 0.8-2.4mg, tar is 7-27mg..... Weird!

Ok so what i'll do is mix the strength of the cartz. but mostly it will be 0mg, 8mg 11mg and max at 18mg....




Thank you all, I'll think I'll send the order now.... because all I can think of is to try that thing and stop the stinky cancer stix!

I'll review the flavours when I get my kit!

From one of the other two Canadians - Welcome to the wonderful world of the VK and to this forum, SEB. Sounds like you made some pretty good choices and, like has already been said, just WAIT until you see your surprises!! You will be smilin' big time. Make sure to keep us all posted on your progress and thoughts. Flavors are funny things. Sometimes something you are sure you will like, you hate and vice versa. So if you find you vape one that you don't like at first, just put it aside for a couple of days. It's always surprising how a person's taste buds start to change and you may find that later you really like it. Again, welcome and keep in touch!
