Sorry, I know there's lots of info here about this but trying to find something very specific.

Many are telling me I need a stronger juice as I just placed my first order for the Joye 510 kit, along with 20ml of 18mg Marlboro liquid from cignot.
BTW, order hasn't arrived yet.

Heavy smoker, up to 2 packs a day of lights.
Imported Dunhill Blue with a smooth flavor are my favorites.
Don't actually like marlboro or most US smokes, like a clean med strength flavor. Dislike fruity or nutty flavors.

Need some ideas on maybe a trial pack or something that will allow me to choose or even mix. I'm thinking I need at least 24mg.

Can anyone tell me where to go and what to get?
Maybe without too much on shipping also?
Thanks

I started with 36mg juice, I didn't miss analogs at all lol.

Try a place that sells cheaper 10ml bottles and get a variety of strengths and flavors.

Stricklyejuice.com sells tons of flavors and has 10ml bottles for around $4. I think they also have a sample pack of 3ml juices that will give you a chance to sample different flavors without spending a ton of money.

Oh, try some of the blue cart filler from them, less than a dollar and it makes juice last longer when you can't drip.

jiuce is such a subjective thing,
Tasty Vapor is my favorite, Johnson Creek has a good sampler pack
I doubt you will find a tobacco flavor to match what your used to
but 555 or ry4 seem to be really popular.

Thanks for that info!!

There's a lot to this vaping, huh?
Guess I'll just try a bunch and I'm sure I'll find something I like eventually.

I can see myself having a closet full of gadgets and gizmos all dedicated to vaping. :D

I wouldn't spend a ton of money in search of a tobacco flavor if you give up cigerettes long enough to get your taste buds back then try one you may very well realize if they tried to sell that flavor in eliquid it woudn't sell,when i first quit everything i tried tasted to sweet now after six weeks the flavors i disliked are surprisingly good. I found menthol is probably the closest thing to a cig flavor there is and i used to hate menthol cigs.
 
The juice thing is a very controversial subject and finding what is truly good for you will take time and research. The best advice I can give you and I am sure others will agree is to continue searching the forum for opinions on vendors and their products before you dump a lot of money on stuff you don't like. Most of all try to be patient and find vendors that give inexpensive samples of flavors you seem to like and then once you find a particular flavor that suits you, then you can experiment with that particular flavor with different vendors for a start, hope that helped some.

Well, that's interesting! Makes sense too.
Someone else said the same thing about menthol too so maybe I'll try some.
Appreciate your input and thank you for the advice :)

Thank you. I've been reading a lot of stuff here and there's so many options!!
Yes, trial and error I guess.....

As you ordered from Cignot you should have your order pretty soon. I think they have an in with the post office. Well it's a long way to Seattle but at least you know that with them it will be in shipping just about the instant you place your order.

As for flavors I do like the ry4 especially in high nic straight PG. VG gives off more vapor but PG has a stronger throat hit. Also the VG in RY4 seemed to make it taste sweet instead of tobacco flavored. I was a Kool smoker for a long time (since 1982) I never did find a flavor that tasted like a Kool but I did find that a ton of other flavors were great.

A great place to check out is http://www.diyflavorshack.com/searchresults.asp?cat=25

Yeah, I heard they were quick! Nice people too.
When I placed the order, about half an hour later I got an email telling me it already shipped!!! WOW I thought.

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.
So many flavors to try. I'm bound to find at least one I really like.

I made a decision to not use the tobacco flavors after my first week. I want to get as far away from tobacco as I can.

I have been using awesome vapor and have had good luck. I like the chocolate, coffee, vanilla, ry4 and cream. I add a little bit of unflavored vegatable glycerin to the flavors and it seems to increase the volume of vapor alot.

I´m going to try some other suppliers as well and see how it goes.

Taste is very subjective, some people like the sweet or fruity flavors and some don't. Some prefer Vg and some like PG, I suggest that you try smaller bottles from different vendors to see what you like. Also try some different strengths anywhere from 18mg-36mg. I personally use 18mg throughout the day and it works fine for me. But when I need an extra boost of nicotine, I vape some 24mg and that gets me through. If you stick with it you will find what you like. I have the 510 and love mine still. I just placed an order today for the Ego which is supposed to have a much better battery life, but still uses the 510 atty's. I think you will like the 510, but after a while your gonna want a better battery. Anyway good luck and welcome to the vaping world.

Gitfiddle did a review on Alien Visions' Boba's Bounty T'bac blend which he praised very highly, said it was a combination that included that Dunhill flavor you said you enjoyed. Said it was the closest thing to an analog he's tasted. Taste, as always is subjective, but that's one thing with vaping.. the myriads of flavors to try, and flavors seem to be non-universal. Have to really hop around and find the best ones for your taste buds.

However, I can't seem to find it on the Alien Visions page, and they're moving back to the states this week so it won't be updated anytime soon. I'd just recommend checking it so often to find it.. because I plan on trying it as soon as I see it again myself. Maybe more info can be found in their forum down below in the supplier section too.

yea don't buy from tasty vapor. i have gotten 1 decent bottle of liquid out of 6 from them. 2 i had to throw out cause they tasted like such horrible ..... 1 i threw out because it literally clogged and destroyed 4 of my atomizers (2 of them i specifically tested with that vapor only and in 2 days they were smelling like burnt chips.)
eliquidplanet is by far the most consistent juice i've had thus far.

Thank you.
Yeah, I'm aware of the battery issue so I'll most likely move onto something better. Appreciate your thoughts and advice a lot.......
