Mike what flavor WTA do you and Janet like?

There were 3 that I consistently ordered, Maui Blend, Pomegranate and Blue Moon (pear/blueberry) from Vapelicious. Mike got RY4, Oakwood, Star and different coffee flavors. Looks like Ethan is having problems and we can't order from him anymore.

I'd LOVE to figure out the Maui Blend because it's one Mike and I both love. It's probably got some melon in it. Iffy figured out the recipe for the pear/blueberry and I did get pomegranate flavoring so I just have to get the proportions right on that one. Aroma has an unflavored WTA on his site, but it's not available.

Aroma eJuice is the only 'game in town' now for WTA. Vapelicious is in another infamous holding pattern as to selling WTA. I prefered Vapelicious flavors, but Jerry's juice at Aroma is also good. Aroma's non-tobacco flavs don't appeal to me, so I've staid w/ flavs like Virginia Tobacco and DK-Tab, and a Turkish Blend. Of these I like the Virginia Tobac the best. If you like menthol tobacco his P-38 is good. I bought some of this just to try and it is a good.

One issue I have with Aroma is the nic level. He seems to only sell at 12 and 24 so I stick w/ the flavors I like and buy one of each then mix to 18mg nic. Aroma's juice is pricey and he only sells 10ml bottles. Ethan at Vapelicious had better prices and you could buy 30ml & 60ml sizes to get better pricing. I hope Ethan works out his problems and continues to make WTA available.

So this is where Heaven's Little Acre old folks resting spot moved to. Howdy!! I'm, Mike, 29 and have smoked for 58 years (physics 501 if at first you don't succeed hide all the evidence) and I wanted to quit smoking. I've smoked them all and my heart doctor said it's got to stop NOW. A few of my friends and I decided we'll do it together. We went to our the Dr.s and got some pills. After a few day I was spending to much time on my knees in front of the porclin goddess. 2 made it now there's 3. Someone mentioned e- cigaretts, WHAT?. So we went on line and Googled everything. All we found was junk (advertisements). I happened to click on ECF and WOW everything you wanted to know about e-cigaretts and was afraid to ask. Now we ask and the information comes flooding in. I have been vaping for about 2 to 3 months now and do I enjoy it. I keep an 808 (actually a 103 Njoy) in my mouth most all the time. I'm going to upgrade but not till I'm sure which way to go. I've read and watched nearly all the tutorials and I'm getting all the pros and cons on everything. Thanks guys and gals, you have restarted our lifes.

    He has P-38 18mg.I have some. I never had a chance to buy from Vapelicious. He was already closed.

    Thanks for the welcome guys. I truely thought this would be esay but I can now tell it going to be a rough row to hoe. I'm going between analogs and the Njoy so I'm going to upgrade before I loose the desire. Again thanks you'll be hearing from me. Mike

    That's great you are starting the journey with some friends. Congratulations on making a great decision. I turned 72 today and inhaled my first cigarette at 10, I had smoked before that just didn't know how to inhale. I haven't smoked in almost three years now and I have no desire to anymore at all. Vaping is a learning experience and everyones journey is a little different but we are all on the same trail and glad to help others along the way. Most of us are on this thread some everyday and will be glad to answer any questions you might have. Between us we have tried just about every device on the market.:)

    Hi there Red. Glad you dropped in and congrats on giving vaping a shot. Some people found that they needed to start with a higher nic level than they thought. Your body isn't absorbing all the junk from the cigs so it's got to adjust. Plus you need to get used to a different physical routine. It all seemed so complicated to me in the beginning, but not so much now. I've even just started to get into making my own juice now and I an't tell you how helpful everyone here has been! Everybody makes this journey at their own pace and have to find what devices they feel comfortable with. I think in the group here you'll find somebody who has used just about everything out there and there's new things coming out all the time. Good luck to you and don't be afraid to ask any questions that might come up.

    Red...I think you're going to be very surprised to find it IS GOING TO BE EASIER THEN YOU THOUGHT. I do believe when you find a set up & some juice (not knocking njoy - anything that helps you getting you off analogs is great IMHO) you're going to find yourself reaching for your pv more than the nasty, it will just taste better. (PHEW - was that all in one sentence.?) Also, everytime you pick up your pv is one less time you smoke. That's pretty great....;)

    Thanks Janet H and moishesmom. I actually have the NJoy in my mouth most of the time when I'm in the house. What's killing me is I'm useing 2 cartrages a day(1 Does not equal 1 pack) and it's getting expensive. I am trying to upgrade but I can't make up my mind. I want to do everything and I looking for a battery that has safety features that's not so expensive. I'm looking at the Vision Spinner with a Vivi Nova 2.5. I have juice comming to try and cut my money out flow. Old man rattleing, thanks ya'll. Mike

    Hi txtumble just saw your post. I have v2 sticks, Kgos, twists and provari, now looking at the spinner, like the idea of 1300mah. The provari is just too heavy to carry out and about. Have been in the world of diy for awhile mainly a fan of dk-tab and vanilla that I mix using some premade and some flavors. Cheap and it works for me. Look forward to getting to know everyone. If you're 29 I must be a baby.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY TEX!!

    Hope you have a really nice birthday and many, many more!!

    Now I have a question for anyone who would like to chime in. I've been happily using eGo batts for the past year and they're starting to bite the dust. Not sure if I want to just order more or is now the time to make a change. Mike and I were talking about what I should try next. Mike has an assortment of Provari's etc, but they're just too big and heavy for me. I was considering the Gripper, but Mike has had some problems with his so I'm going to have to start looking for something else. I'd like to have something that has reliable ohm and volt readings and isn't too bulky or heavy. I love my mini vivi novas and seem to be set with enough of those. Any recommendations?

    WOW!! Thanks you'll (that's Texan). jj2 the battery life is very short (about 1 hour I have 3) and cartrages run out fast (3-4 hours) and cost $15 for 5. I can deal with the taste but I have juice comming I hope to fill the cartrages with.:) Thanks for the info klynnn. I have 3 grandchildren and I don't do dipers anymore (famous last words said after the first one) so I'll change my age to 33. ha. I like all the specs on the Spinner but I'd like a short circuit protection feature on it but the ones I have found are toooo expensive and I can't justify the expence right now. The Vivi Nova V2.5 and the mini I plan on getting. Thanks again. I see I'll have plenty of help. I see light at the end of the tunnel as long as they don't move it.

    My oldest friend here bought an ego twist and she loves it. She's a long time vaper and a Buzz user.

    I tend to look ahead on my purchases and try to get things that will work with others. I got the kgo kit for backup cheap and works well and lasts all day. Then got the twist cause the kgo kit charger works with it, then the nova which I use with all of that. Just got the provari so I can use replaceable batteries and the ohm checker to rebuild my own coils in the future. I am pretty much set now just need to work on my diy. Best thing I did was to go to 510 threading on everything since I started with 808.
