Ooooh Maryland! The best crab cakes in the WORLD!! *nom, nom*
Bravo! My experience was like Rave's - I will do anything to avoid the burning of tobacco - pop a Snus if needed.
Desert Joe... #1 Si hands down.
555.......... Alternate I enjoy often
Cowboy....... Occasional. Used to be in the top two but my taste buds change once in a while.
As long as I vape these three my cartos last a looooong time, sometimes weeks. I like a sweeter RY4 than SI's though. I order from another vendor who has a few sweeter tobacco juices I really like. Found them when SI was having a shortage of my fav in my strength. They're a higher VG content as well as not as clear, from flavorings, so cartos don't last nearly as long but I do enjoy them so I sacrifice a few cartos.
Love, for myself, I have a stash of cheap q-tips from Walmart and alcohol wipes for cleaning mine. When I fill/refill cartos, I swab the carto end that fits into the batt. I am obsessive about keeping juice out of the batt, so I swab and swab again. I fold the little alcohol wipe and clean all the grooves on the batt and carto. Seems to work great so far.
THAT'S where I got the idea. Thanks, WuzzntMe. I knew I read that somewhere, but couldn't remember who said it.
Hey Everybody!
Just checking in. Thank you, everyone, for the flavor suggestions. My hubs is doing much better, vaping about 50% more (which means 50% LESS analogs!) than he was before the Volt shipment. He's really enjoying the Ice Menthol. Using the Menthol Burst as a backup and ignoring the cappuccino. LOL I've made an order of a bunch of samples of nicquids from want2vape and Vermillion River and they should be in soon. I got a bunch of different foody flavors, plus pipe tobacco blends, different coffee options and a few different menthols. He is completely uninterested in fruity flavors. It should be fun, watching him try all the flavors. I've decided to just hand him a color-coded carto, without telling him what flavor he's trying. I honestly think he would have liked the cappuccino better if he hadn't had a pre-concieved notion on what it was "supposed" to taste like, ya know? He's agreed to this plan, so we're going to give it a try, once the nicquids get here. Wish us luck!
He LOVES the Volt automatic, sealed-battery system. He says it feels "much more natural" to him. I'm over the moon. I plan to make another SI order soon and get some RY4 cartos.
Speaking of color-coding... Imagine, you mentioned a new set of end caps. We you talking mouth end, or LED end? I have the set of 5, but I'd love another set, to round it out to 10 different colors. LOL When will those be in?
On the subject of pets, Rave, I'm so excited to hear of your obvious education on dog training! You've got quite a lot of dog there and you really have a handle on it. Thank you so much for rescuing her!!! We've had rescue animals all our lives and used to run a deaf-dog rescue. Someone mentioned a while back (and I don't remember who and can't find it, dang it!) that they used to have a deaf Great Dane. How cool! We've had two deaf Danes over the years and I miss them with my whole heart. Great dogs. Obviously, with the rescue, we've had many deaf dogs and a number of hearing dogs too. Right now, we have zero dogs and it feels so odd. After our last old lady died, we decided "no more heartbeats" until we knew what the situation with Rob's cancer was going to be. So, we have two cats and four parrots and that will be it for a long while. I envy those of you with dogs. I feel like I'm missing an arm. LOL
On the subject of Maryland - Rob and I are Maryland brats too. Both of us grew up in Montgomery County, MD, but we were both born in DC and currently live here. This area really does have the most amazing crab cakes. Now I'm hungry!

Yay, Barb!! I'm celebrating with you. Good for your DH.
I have discovered that I am not going to be able to use PG juice. I had suspected this earlier, but I had a cold and I take antihistamines daily for allergies, so I blamed my discomfort on that.
Tuesday night before bed, I was chain vaping some delicious PB Cup from Blue Mist. I awoke in the middle of the night with coughing spasms like you have with analogs. Yesterday I vaped only PG free and no coughing. The PG juice was zero nic, so it had to be the 80% PG in it. I have a bunch of small bottles of juice from Blue Mist and Copper Creek and an almost full 30 ml bottle of PB Cup that I am not going to be able to use. Bummer
Is anyone else unable to use PG?

That's awesome, Barb!! I'm glad that your hubs is taking to the Volt well. It helps when you have a flavor(s) that you like.

I've had this problem with itchy skin for months now and wonder if it's from the PG. It's not a big enough problem for me to warrant switching to VG juices, though.
Deb, Gold Bond medicated lotion (Walmart has the Equate brand for less $$ that works just as well) is great for itchy/dry skin. The smell kind of puts me off, but it doesn't last long. My DD had a reaction to meds that made her break out and itch. I gave her some Gold Bond and she said it helped.
Anyone know if the Cig2O USB charger is compatible with the Volt batteries?
Hi Stacey - I haven't seen or used the Cig2o but this might be helpful:

The Gold Bond is really good stuff. I once bought some "itch relief" when I had gotten into some poison ivy. It came in a little bottle that you sprayed on. It worked wonders!
I'm a bad Marylander.. haven't gotten a bushel of hard crabs in years I can pick a bushel myself and make a mean crab quiche.. lol.. yeah that sounded manly.

Hi everyone and welcome to all the new volites
I'm doing a rush fly by 'casue I'm so far behind here.
rave, I love hearing about Lexi's adventures. What do you think about a new avatar pic everyday?
Barb, I'm so happy to hear how well your husband is doing!
lilac, I'm just the opposite, VG juice makes me feel conjested, some more than others.
Fav niquid: Freedom, Desert Joe, Cowboy and Cherry added to one of the tobacco flavors. Vanilla - +1 on yuk. But, I haven't liked any vanilla type flavors.
