I really like the carto/tank setup, its really simple to use in my opinion. I haven't ventured out into trying atomizer or clearo yet.

Lol, I'm just the opposite, have clearos coming....until I got a link to a really great video today, tanks scared me...so as soon as hubby gets over his 'fit' on how much I've spent so far..tanks!!

I think the only scary part about a tank setup is accidentally pulling out the drip out and the carto at the same time. Came home one night after having a few drinks with friends. Wanted to pull off my drip tip and accidentally pulled the carto out of the tank too. Spilled juice all over my desk and had a very strong juice/flavor smell for a couple of days.

Newby myself. Exploring different flavours is definitely one of the coolest aspects of vaping. Since you like the caramel flavour, I'd recommend trying RY4. Most vendors have a variation of it. Tobacco-ish base with hints of caramel and vanilla. My fave so far, although I've got a package coming with a bunch of new flavours to explore next week!

Also (based of course, on my limited exposure so far) highly recommend the Vision Stardust (clearomizer) and dripping for testing flavours.

I too am super new to this but here is what I have found so far...
I hated the RY4 it tasted nothing like a smoke and was really sweet.
I tried my cola bottle candy flavour, it was yummy but too sweet for long time vaping.
I am really enjoying my French vanilla cappuccino, it doesn't have a strong taste, just a nice mild vanilla flavour.
I have been using it for 2 days now and will definitely get more.
I am going to wait till the vanilla runs out until I try my other flavour.

Still want a good tobacco flavour.

An easier way to fill the cartos...which a member here gave me info about is: those annoying little squishy plastic caps on the cartos ARE good for something. Take the one that is on the end with the white circle. Put about 10 drops or so of your juice in it. Pry out white circle thingy, and SLOWLY push the whole cart THREAD END DOWN into the 'juice' in the plastic thingy so the juice sucks up into the thread end. Look inside from where you took out the plug, if it doesn't look 'slushy' repeat the fill/push with about 5 more drops. keep doing that until the top 'filler' stuff is wet. Put plug back on, wipe off, vape. MUCH easier and faster than needle, AND you don't stick your finger with the needle (don't ask.....it wasn't pretty...and thingy is a perfectly GOOD WORD! :p )

But i'm worried about getting juice in the carto where it touches the battery, y do so many say not to get juice in that lil center hold on the cartomizer?

i tried the RY4 I wasn't very fond of it. thanks for the suggestion. I'm loving the caramel hazelnut moch from vixen its all i've been vaping. I did get in a lot of other flavors and hated them all! I hate the perfume taste of some. I'm wanting something sweet, milky maybe cake, cream. I'm also wondering about flavors that taste like alcohol drinks, have you tried any like that?

I've tried many caramel juices, and most were disappointing, however, Mount Baker Carmel Candy is on a different level. If you like Caramel, this one is a must try:
Caramel Candy E Juice Baker Vapor - Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes

I don't think it's just me either; read some of the reviews :p
(BTW...this is one of my basics for adding to other juices for DIY. Though I vape mainly cigar juices, when I have a sweet-tooth, I vape this with some marshmallow, and popcorn added to make up a dynamite Caramel Corn juice ...yummy.)

I'm looking for something sweet that doesn't taste perfumee..is that possible to find? I read sugar juices mess up devices.

I was a menthol smoker for years. I am totally addicted to want2vape's mystical menthol. I'm almost done with my second bottle! My husband is always smoking tasty vapors Tastyfinger (just like butterfinger candy). I've tried halo, MFS and want2vape menthols/mints but nothing beats my mystical menthol so far. After reading some posts here, I've ordered a few from Rawr to try.

Before I got my ego mega dual coil I would just use a screw to pop off the white cap then I would use the screw again to pull out the rubber o-ring and then just drip my liquid in the carto and put it back together.

Im also using a 1000mah twist, they're great devices. My gf uses the 650mah twist in pink and they're really compact and cute compared to the 1000mah.

I found that using "the condom method" wasted liquid and the pop off and drip worked better for me.

VQ; the MB Caramel Candy is not "perfume-e" at all. Some juices are when they are fresh, especially those with alcohol-based flavorings, but most will tone down as they steep (The Mt Bakers Caramel just tastes like creamy caramel all the time, and only gets better as it steeps...at least in my experience).

Some juices do crud-up the coils on some devices, but if you learn to clean & dry-burn your cartos & clearos, they are pretty simple to get back into like-new condition. If you eventually start using some of the more advanced VV MODS, tanks & rebuild-able atomizers, you won't have that problem at all....but that's a whole different subject.

so the 600 is smaller, can you tell me who sells it, the place I saw the 1000 didn't have the 600.

the 650mah is the same size in diameter but about 1-1.5 inches shorter thant he 1000mah. I bought my gf's one from goodprophets and shipping was pretty cheap also.

I've been vaping for 6 weeks & have tried a number of flavors...

SmartVapes SV101 (macaroonish type flavor).. loved it at first but it got tiresome. Also.. it's so pungent that just opening my vaping drawer the smell of that particular 1 hits me in the face.

Vape Dude's Fruiti Stripes.. My all day vape. I love this stuff! Though IDK if it's a flavor for everyone.

Vape Dudes' Swedish Fish.. My 2nd Fav ATM. The flavor is spot on.

VD's Mr. Dude.. Hate it.. it's like the throat hit from hell.

The Vapor Room's Butterscotch.. Good flavor. It's the latest addition to my rotation.

TVR's Gingers RY4.. My first RY4 venture so I have nothing to compare it to but I'm not a fan.
