Green and orange batteries, oh my, both really nice. My newest order came yesterday. The green is such a rich metallic color but covered with the great rubbery-velvety exterior. I got it with the green led, just beautiful. The orange is popping orange, exactly what I was hoping for. Thanks Imagine for letting us all chime in on choosing the new colors.

Yesterday felt like Christmas. I received both orders from SI in the mail. I've been enjoying the RY4 ever since, and the mega carrying case is very nice. Like how I can store extra cartos if I need them on the road. :2cool:

I have enough cartos to last me at least a month, but I'm so tempted to get a pack of the grape since I've been hearing so many good things about it.

Just wanted to pop in and say hi to everyone. What I'm really doing is stalling until I can decide on which color batteries I want. I was sure it was raspberry and purple. Then I thought, no must have red. And then I thought that new green looks pretty.....well, you see the problem......and then there's the liquid. :blink:

Good news is that the Strong Sampler is suppose to be in on Friday in time for the sale! :banana: Bad news for your pocket book. :p (And for mine) :laugh:
I hope SI will keep it in stock, too. I want one, but the 2 batts I have are sufficient, and since money's tight, I'm not getting another one till I need one. I was tempted to use the sale to get one, just because, but I exercised self-control. If the new sampler pack had been in stock, I think that would have driven me over the edge of restraint, and I would have ordered that and the raspberry batt.

Ya just really have to jump in. For me, the elegant batteries are silver, red, and green. I like Desert Joe, but most Volties seem to prefer the 555 or RY 4 on the tobacco flavors. I also like Ice Menthol. On the sweet flavors, I like Watermelon and Classic Grape but the new Grape is also good.

Welcome to the Volt world!

So, I jumped. The green LED won me over for the green batt. And ever since I read the mistake with the Raspberry batt, I've wanted it so, the only thing that slowed me down was auto or manual? I chose manual because I had to know the difference. lol Freedom liquid was easy as it was my fav - Jan, have you tried this one? Desert Joe is my second favorite. I can't believe I'm even saying that since I don't, err - didn't, like tobacco flavors!

Still no Sweet Sampler so I thought I would get blank cartos. On my scroll down the page I saw Watermelon and since I always seem to like that flavor, popped those into the cart. So, it looks like I will be back looking for the Sweet and Strong Samplers. I hope I can settle on just a few soon, but dang, this is fun! :laugh:

Doncha just feel like a kid in a toy store when you're on the SI website? I sure do!

Yes! And I confess I was not really looking for a mini but couldn't stop reading this thread! lol So, curiosity and fun people won me over. This would be a good time to thank everyone for all the reviews and to Imagine for setting the tone here. :toast:

I'm the same. I want a raspberry batt, and I'm going to try it in manual, since my batts are auto. And I definitely want to try that new sampler in the new flavors. I don't like menthol cigarettes, but I'm curious about the menthol cartos. So many carto flavors are good when I didn't think they'd be that I just have to keep an open mind.

I think this forum is probably SI's best advertising!

Sandy, I agree about the flavors. Things I didn't think I'd like - I do! And vice versa which has cost a lot. I haven't found a chocolate I like to vape, so far haven't liked anything vanilla or coffee tasting, caramel is suspect and on and on. In r/l I'm not much of a fan of watermelon but love to vape it. I don't like mint and yet have a spearmint I really like. Surprisingly I've had menthol in flavors and loved it. Guess it's a good thing SI has samplers?! :)

Oh, and OT - really a surprise, on a whim I tried Parmesean Cheese - I liked it. lol

Parmesan cheese carto? Really! I wonder if I'd like that. Like you, I thought the watermelon would be yukky, but the flavor is so subtle, it's pretty good. I have the samplers, and I keep switching the cartos around. I like SI's cappuccino pretty well, so if you haven't tried that, give it a shot. I got mine in a sampler, though now I think that's not possible -- they replaced it with Freedom, didn't they? I haven't tried that one yet.

I'm still hoping someday they'll have a sampler we can make up custom so we can try flavors we haven't tried w/o buying 5 of them. I understand why they can't do that, but it's still something I wish for.

The Desert
Well, I'm back in my shack in the desert and this morning the mail soldier came by and dropped off my package from SI - full o' 555 and RY4 cartos in 12mg along with a smooth sampler.
Ripped open the smooth sampler and tried Desert Joe, Freedom, and Cowboy.
Not. For. Me.
I guess I'm too used to 555, RY4, and this mentholated juice from another vendor that tastes like Malibu Coconut Rum.
When I was home I popped into a few "tobacco stores" and bought some Dekang juices. Yuck. Wasted my money on all of them. Now they're sitting in a sealed bag in my fridge with an "Open Only in Case of Extreme Shortage Emergency" label on them.
When I got my Darwin mod I tried to go the big tank route but they're all too complicated and messy for the environment I work in. With an 808 adapter on it set to 5 watts (matches the Volt battery output almost perfectly there) I just use Volt cartos on it now. When in garrison I use the Volt batts since they don't draw too much attention, when outside the wire for a couple of days I use the Darwin.
Blew some embassy security minds with both the Darwin and Volt batteries though....they still let me in with them though.
