New to vaping

[pup2675]

Im very new to vaping. I recieved my Halo Triton kit Friday 3May2014 and completely loved it right out of the box. I ordered it with a large bottle of Tribeca and variety pack sampler. Also, ordered an extra tank and coils as everything i have read on the reviews suggested to do so.

My only grief is that the USB adapter fell apart yesterday. While taking it out of the packaging it completely came apart and is not usable at all. I contacted Halo and they were very helpful. A basically no questions asked 90 day return policy, only asked for a picture of the defective product. I only hope that it gets to me by the time my batteries run out of juice. Today i ordered a back up USB adapter along with another 400 mAh battery just in case.

Im still in the testing phase of my vaping experience but, so far i like Tribeca and Turkish Tobacco.

Ouch! Are there any vape shops in your area?

Welcome to the forum. I'm new here and to vaping also. Joined the forum yesterday and have been vaping for 1.5 months. No Cigs for over 2 weeks now.

I didn't care for the Turkish but that was in cartomizers and not in a clearo tank. Like the Tribeca. But I've been mixing it with some green apple and strawberry along with some menthol, works for me right now.

What actually fell apart. The wall wart or the USB device that the battery connects to? Bad part is the Halo stuff is kind of proprietary.

After a quick search there a couple around.. Are Halo's USB adapters pretty universal?

Thanks

NO!! They are very specific! This is a dangerous game to mix and match.

In fact, even Halo's G6 (cigalike) recharger and the Triton recharger are incompatible with each other.

Most of the battery fires and popping/mild exploding that I've read about was from the wrong charger on a battery!!!!

Sorry to hear of your problems. If you are at wit's end, go buy a cheap disposable at the convenience store.

If you put the wrong charger on a battery, you run the high risk of ruining the battery, possibility of fire!

(Halo misnamed these two things. What they call a charger is just an AC to USB adapter. For the most part, these are interchangeable. I use a Jawbone or an apple adapter. And I charge from my desktop PC USB port!
What Halo calls the adapter is really the charger. I love Halo, 8 months cig free! But this error does erk me.)
