New to "vaping" & forum..Went with HALO G6 Kit

[Xray01]

2months analog free today! About 3 1/2 -4months vaping..?? Dont remember all that matters is On Sunday February 24 I smoked my last cigarette.

Hello, I read your thread and it seems that you were a couple months ago where I am at right now, actually I am doing the research for my friend, I got her a Riva 510 about a year and half and she didnt like it, she is ready for round 2 so I am trying to help her out, someone suggested the Halo G6 and I saw that is what you got, what is your experience with the G6 so far? Did you try the triton from Halo?
My friend smokes Camel Crush( I think) menthol.
I also noticed you bought the tank, how does that work?

Yes I still have my G6's, still use them every now and then. They were a great starter kit I recommend them highly. I havent picked up a triton yet..no reason to at this point but I am going to just cause I support halo for life..it was their kit and liquid that got me to quit ...Im jus waiting for the VV triton batteries.

Tank? which tank are you referring to I have many lol..point me to the pic or post ur talking about and ill fill you in.

And im not familiar with Camel Crush but if its menthols you seek Halo is a great place to start ALL of their menthols are good. My faves are Subzero and Menthol ice for menthols from them. their tobaccos are good as well Tribeca and Torque are still 2 of my favorites today...im vaping torque right now actually.

Camel crush are the cigs the are reg tobacco... If you crush [squeeze] the filter it pops a menthol ball, now you have menthol flavor too, pretty decent for stinkies... It depends how the friend smokes it to give a good rec

Man, I've fallen so behind on this thread. I'm going to have to do some catching up. If you haven't already read about it my Anyvape thread, I went to iVape this afternoon and bought a new mod. I ended up getting this...

K100 - Mechanical Telescope - Blue | MODS | iVAPE

Not sure if its the exact same thing, but its very similar to the Kamry K100 from Gotvapes.

New EMPIRE Style KAMRY K100 R-Scope Telescopic Mod - BLUE [gv-KamryRSCOPE-BLUE] - $49.95 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more

I was going to get iVape's KTS Mechanical Mod (the gg knock off), but they were out of stock in store. If I wanted it, I would of had to order it online, specify store pick up, wait 2 days and then drive back to pick it up. The extra $20 for the K100 was worth not having to deal with that. Plus it seems I got a better device. Although, I have no experience with the KTS.

Below are a couple pictures I took of it with the protank on it. One shows it in 18350 'mode' and the other in 18650. I did buy some 18500 batteries too. Very excited about this. I love the battery life of the 650 but love the compact size of the 350. Hopefully, this will be a good compromise.

As for the mod, the build quality is leaps and bounds better than the Anyvape CVI v1 that I have. It is solid and has some heft to it, regardless of battery configuration. The telescoping feature is awesome, as you know. The pictures below don't show it, but it also came with a drip shield (matching blue) and a chrome/stainless? drip tip, but they didn't have any long barrel attys. Which means I can't configure it that way until I get a long barrel atty. You can see what it looks like in both the links above. It just gives me a good excuse to get a HH.357 long barrel. The guy at iVape, wish I knew his name cause he helps me out all the time, told me that two of the three battery configurations could be used with a Kick. May be something I consider adding later, but I hadn't even thought about it. The fact the kick costs as much as the mod makes me hesitate even more. Never know though.

 

[DDark4eva]

You'll have the kick soon enough i bet lol...If I went mechanical I know I woulda had to get one ..I cant do a set voltage all day i need sum control I use a wide variety of oHms ..not to mention the liquids I only like at certain voltage settings

And yes see how convenient a scoping device is. I go to work with and 18350 in the my zmax and come home with the '650 in it. And I have and extra '650 I keep in the house so when i come in from work I use that and charge the other 2, when I go to work I charge the home battery I love it, So much better that carrying tubes. Plus I jus ordered 2 18500s...mainly cus I dont have any yet.


Also find myself using the Vivi nova alot more ...mainly cause outta all my devices I found It goes best with bobas & Gorilla Juice....Ive been vaping these 2 for almost 2 weeks now constant I love gorilla Juice

Old thread but highbrow hybracco? + mt baker menthol = your own mix of menthol how you like it. The Marlboro smooths were also what I smoked and the first time you smoked one it tasted like tooth paste. Was good for what it was.

Never tried them or heard of them but yea I have a nice amount of recipes these days and Mtbaker menthol plays a part in many. The smooth hunt ended awhile ago I made sumthin better for me.

 

[typo_joe]

I've heard some positive reviews on highbrow. I've never tried them, but they are on my list of vendors to try.

Let me know when you do, Ive got my hands full for now, I got plenty of juice here i still havent tried yet ...all steeping until im tired of GJ lol

Nevermind ..not a single one of their tobacco flavors appeal to me lol

I've got a while before I order some new juices. I am stocked, very stocked. Yet sadly, I still bought a 10ml bottle of Peach from iVape. The one catch about most of the juice I have, is its 6mg nicotine. I have learned that I'm not a fan of 6mg nicotine. At least not at 50/50 pg/vg. There is zero throat hit with the juice I bought. I'm mixing them with other juices with success, so its not too bad.

Also, I forgot to mention, the Vivi nova has made it into my rotation. My buddy come over and I was telling how bad my experience was with it. He puts it on his device and he's like, man I'm loving this. I looked at him thinking he was joking, but after trying it, it was working beautifully. He used it the rest of the day and the next day it was included in my go bag. I guess I didn't give it enough time to get good and saturated. IDK, but she's working beautifully now. My buddy liked it so much he bought one of the vivi nova copies from ivape in hopes it would work just as good, and it did. So he bought another one. They only had smoke tubes in the copies. He wanted clear, which I had, so I traded tubes with him. So now my vivi is smoked.

That same day we found out the vivi was a champ, my buddy dropped it, with my Cherry Tips Drip Tip on it and it snapped at the o-ring. I used The Original Super Glue and let it cure for 24 hours, put the o-ring back in and its holding so far. Sucks a little, it was my favorite drip tip. Guess I could always get another.

 

[DDark4eva]

I kid you not I was jus looking at the ivapes and was gonna ask you if thats the one you had lol. But I told you its pretty good, it makes a few of my liquids a much much better experience. Im on the market for a mini vivi now ill probably order one 2morrow for my egos. I already have 2 tubes for the regular, clear and smoked and about 5 heads including the one im using now so no need for me to buy another 3ml one

Oh man this k-100 is freakin awesome! Not only is it all I said before, but after using it this week, I realize it's got other pluses. I wish I would have realized what I was getting before and what I was missing (until now). Don't get me wrong though, I still like my anyvape, but it pales in comparison.

The battery life has been exceptional on all three batteries sizes I own. I've mainly been using the 350s and 500s and the battery life feels as if it has at least doubled. I can easily make it through the day with a 350 with the k-100. I haven't run one down fully, because I hear that shortens the battery's life. Usually, I switch out a battery (regardless of size) every 8-12 hours or so, just to be safe.

The other awesome thing is its size. I guess that's the benefit of losing all the extra 'junk'. One of the pictures below is a comparison of size between the anyvape cvi v1 and the KeCig K-100. Each rocking a '650. It's not small by any means with the 650, but it is tiny when sporting a 350. If I have my choice of batteries, I reach for the 500. It is what I was hoping, a good balance between the small and large. Also, what I'm told, they have the same C rating as the 650s I have, which 'helps the hit'. I do notice a slight difference, but I can get a good hit regardless.

As for a Kick... I'm still torn on adding a Kick. VW would be nice, but now that I have had a vw device, I find I'm just as happy without it. At least with my set up (juice/tank) as it is now. If I had to find an excuse to buy one D) it would be to have a low voltage battery cut off. Then no worries of shortening my battery's life.

The other picture attached is my buddies new pride and joy. A stainless steel Vamo with a carbon fiber jwrap. In the picture its topped with one of the Vivi Nova copies from iVape. The picture is blurred, but I cannot be held responsible for this one. I can't say the same about the stupid sideways picture... For the record, I don't take sideways pictures. They are upright on everything else I have ever used a photo from my phone, except here. Apparently, I'm only allowed to take horizontal pictures.

Surprised to see you've been a little MIA on the forums lately. Hope all is good.

Thats good that ur happy man. I knew you would love the telescoping addition, its a must have for me now im even rethinking the whole provari thing cus you kno ill have every extension cap too lol...no but have this deep feeling inside that wen i finally decide to buy a provari a new version "V3" gonna come soon after, I will be upset but you know me I will go right to the classifieds lol. But im happy wit my zmax.

Sigelei putting out a kick this month ........ posted a preorder for it only $15...im sure the deal is dead now but i know if i get a mech im gonna have a one, I did quite a bit of research this week and with the way i vape it'll be sumthin ill have to at least have in my arsenal. But you know wut ur next step is ..Time to try sum RBA's my friend! If you do I really look forward to ur thoughts.

Ill get the RBA ball rolling for you look a sale! lol http://www.vaportekusa.com/product.cgi?group=1496&product=1497

As for mechs I ALMOST bought one today I found a Kamry KTS Kit for $60...the mech i WAS gonna get anyway...I was so close man but i fought and took control and put my money where i needed it like i was supposed to do to begin with lol

went to surevapes and got the 5 box carto bulk deal, sum liquid from GoodEjuice to try (keep hearin about Vita bella and Patriot) and another 18500 battery.

Which reminds me i still have my PlumeRoom order steeping in the closet as long with ivapes sweet carolina and 3 from BWB....i havent tried any yet... i should get on that lol

 

[DDark4eva]

its been awhile...so much stuff (mostly liquid) to update here ...this weekend ill stop putting it off

As you may have seen in the "what are you waiting for..." Thread but i pulled the trigger in a rebuildable... Smoketech RSST. I bought 28g kanthal and 500 ss mesh. Seems that should work for me on the mechanical(s). I got my ship notice this morning.

Also bought a new mechanical. The sigelei #20. Ive seen mostly mediocre or bad reviews. But it was cheap and this ones supposed to come with a new spring. Other than price, i think it looks awesome.

I need to make an order very soon for some protected batteries. Im not going to put anything i build on a non protected battery.

Oh also bought some juice from vape dudes and fuzion. Sadly the are kind of reorders. I bought several flavors from both places at 6mg and they sucked. There wasnt enough throat hit for me. So every bottle has been sitting. So i ordered some of the flavors i ordered in 18mg (or equivalent). Ill mix them and have a close enough vape. I hope they get here soon, my current supply is getting low.

So i seen you got some kanthal and silica. Whats that for evod heads or did you get another rebuildable?

Hello folks. My wife and her family have always been heavy smokers, Marlboro Lights. A couple of them have started vaping and like it (they went with Halo). I'm wondering what others think who were Marlboro Lights smokers about what they think and works for them. Thanks!

I got the rsst today. Currently rocking a 0.6 ohm coil. Well according to the anyvape. Itll show the res but wont fire. When i check it with the multimeter its a 1 ohm coil. Not sure which is right but they are both consistent with themselves

I wont lie my first coil worked for about 1 min before i realized a problem. After several attempts at saving it i ditched it and started over. I dont know what happened to the second one but the wick couldnt handle the pulse heat and began glowing red. After a min or so, i ditched it cause it didnt feel right seeing that. Finally the third attempt and its lasted about 5 mins, so, so far so good.

When you had the rba did you use ss mesh wick? If so what method did you use to build it? As mentioned, i used the pulse method with ss mesh. Any method you would recommend?

So many unknowns... gotta do some info digging.
