Hi everyone. I've been vaping for about 2 months. I haven't smoked for several years. I started out vaping as a way to relax at night and smoking was always my way to do that in the past. I don't use nicotine (at least right now I don't) but I love the flavors that are available. I have several bottles from Mt Baker and from Vapejoose.

Even though I have only been doing this for a short time, I already have an MVP 2.0 with a MVP 3.0 on the way (I was one of the lucky winners of the drawings from Innokin), an iPV3 150 watt, an Aspire Atlantis and battery, a couple of mech mods and a few RDAs. I also have a Reo Grand on the way and should have it early next week.

I'm not much of a cloud chaser, I'm more of a flavor junkie....always looking for the best flavor that I can find.

Any, and all advice will be greatly appreciated.


Todd

Welcome, Todd.

Judging from the gear you already have, you appear to be in great shape gear-wise. When financially able, I was always on the lookout for new flavors to try.

Welcome, Todd! You sure have amassed some nice equipment! I am a flavor chaser, as well. You are among good company. Once you get five posts in, you can wander over to the Eliquid Forum and spend some more cash! Really great juices are to be found, and with your equipment you will definitely appreciate the more complex vapes available. Careful, it can be as much of a "hobby" as the gear is.
I currently get most of my liquids from Nicoticket. They won in several "Best of" juice categories on ECF. Here's a link: http://www.nicoticket.com
I like Absolute Creme Brûlée, Wakonda (Coffee), Strawnilla (Strawberry Quick), Custard's Last Stand, Grandma's Cinnamon Danish (Cinnabon), and they are very well known for "The Virus".
I also get several juices from The Plume Room and here is a link for those: The Plume Room
Hope you find some juices you really love -- it makes the investment on the equipment worth while! I bet you are going to LOVE your REO! Just about everyone who has one says they will never part with it!
Nice to meet you - hope to see you around!

Welcome to ECF Todd! Sounds like you have your vape under control. Thanks for joining us!

Finally a fellow Iowan! Sounds like you're set with all that. Don't be afraid to try new juices. On another note feel free to stop by Reoville we will be happy to welcome you bring some pics of that grand. With that grand I would assume (being a flavor chaser) you got the rm2? Btw do you go to any of the local shops in dead Moines?

Hi Niles, I have been down to Des Moines vape shopping. I started at Great Alternatives, but they didn't have much for RDAs. I ended up at Route 69...that's where I got my iPV3 and Dark Horse dripper. They were great and had some good advice...I'll definitely be going back there when I get some time.

I ended up getting the RM4, as I wanted the single/dual coil airflow option. I thought it would be a good place to start, as if I like the Reo as much as everyone says I will, I'll be back for another and then be on the lookout for some other RDAs for them.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! It looks like a good place to find advice and information.

Welcome to the ECF, and sounds like you've got plenty of hardware to chase the flavor with, lol. I won't recommend a flavor or vendor, as taste is sooo subjective. What I will offer is a little advice. Buy from vendor's that offer sample packs, or buy small bottles until you know you like a particular flavor. I have wasted a lot of coin on "the best" juice more times than I like to admit. Reading through multiple threads can give you new options you may not have been aware of, but does not guarantee you'll like what another does, Good luck.

 

[Niles Krane]

Sounds like a solid choice! The folks at route 69 are really good helpful people! They are definitely what this culture needs in Iowa a place to just chill!

Good to see a few in here from the area.

I think you're the closest person to me I've found, and we're both 'starting out'. Wonder if M.C. will get a B&M store, that'd be nice since I'm there at least once a week for some reason or another.

Welcome! I live about 1000 miles away in ga!

A B & M store would be great...all we have here is a Tobacco Outlet. They have a few over priced things, but not much that I'm looking for. Rochester, Minneapolis, or Des Moines are the only places that really have anything within an easy drive. I haven't tried the Waterloo or Iowa City area yet, but I'm sure I will get there eventually.

Hey Greywolf
Your post sounds just like me but without all the mods.. Im a total flavor junkie as well. With that said I was told to stay away from Mt Baker from the guy in my local vape lounge. How is there juice? Is it as bad as he says.?

I like several of the flavors from Mt. Baker. You do have to steep them a while, as they make them to order. I like the Absinth and the Orange Dream Bar and I had them make a Jamaican Rum/ Marachino Cherry combo that I really like. I'm still experimenting with different companies and have joined Zamplebox to get some samples of different companies. I'm sure that I'll never quit looking for that 'perfect' flavor.
