I wonder if we can just use a coin like we used to do in the fuse boxes. lol It is a wonder we never burned any of our houses down with the old penny to bypass the fuse trick.

I saw a thread last week where a guy said to wrap dimes with electrical tape and they worked as spacers???

I hate to say it but guilty as charged..

I have used tin foil on car fuses...

ok, I just have the riva so I wondered if those getting great flavor were using a vv device and that made the difference. But apparently not. Lovin my peach in the stardust. I'll know more when I put the same juice in the stardust that I have in the phoenix or vice versa.

Deb you just got those juices and VD makes them fresh so some of them may need to steep before the flavor really comes through for you.

I get good flavor from the CE3 tanks, but not the XLs. The other issue for me is how much longer my CE4s last than the CE3s did. I have CE4s that I have been using for over 2 months. The only issue I have ever had with them with the tubes cracking. I'm hoping the Ambroid will eliminate that issue. I have yet to have a coil die in a CE4. I had a box of CE3, and a box of Phoenix XL....only one still going out of 10.

I found the CE4+ here (GotVapes NEW VISION eGo Stardust ™ 1.6ml TC 2.1-2.4 SHORT WICK [gv-NEWvisionstardust-2.2-SHORT] - $5.95 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more), they claim that this version is immune to the problems with acidic juice. I ordered a few to try.

Well, I dropped off my son's birthday gift last night, an Apollo Vtube Mini. Also, the mailman delived his shipment of CE3s yesterday. He had already loaded up a few CE3s with his favorite juices and immediately put one on the VTube (I had charged the batteries) and started vaping. We sat in his kitchen and both marveled that we weren't smoking anymore - a very nice evening. While I don't know if my smoking started him smoking, I do know that my vaping started his vaping and I'm thrilled about that.

As far as the spacers go for the chargers, since I bought 2 of them I'll have enough spacers to charge 2 18350s and use the other to charge 14650s. Still very happy with the CE3s and not very impressed with the CE4+ as it seems the wicks don't stand up to chain vaping and you get dry hits. I don't chain vape often, except when I'm at work and I only have a 5 or 10 minute break to get my nicotine fix...

I had wondered about that. The pina colada is soooo good. And I wasn't sure if I'd like it so was a little nervous getting the 30 ml, but it was on sale, so took the plunge. So glad I did.

Anyone got the V2 Vivi yet? I'm on the fence

on this as I've had no good luck with the clearoz, but have not tried the CE3s...looks like they do what they are suppose to and just trying to decide which to get, CE2s or Vivi-V2

. So far, the SmokTech DCT has given me the most consistent FTV...but, the Cartos have a funky taste until they are broken in a bit. I have been flushing the cartos with Vodka before I use them and that seems to help, just hoping to find something else where I can see the liquid level and get good consistent FTV without the burnt hits. All suggestions and reviews appreciated! :vapor:

I'm liking the CE3s for consistency, each hit tastes the same. I wish they held a bit more juice and didn't need a syringe to fill though. For now, I'll stay with these and the Resurrector cartos...

Thanks for your input, I leaning in that direction...but they dangerously resemble the CE5 and just thinking the bottom coil may be better. But, I see others that don't care for 'em (bottom coils). Guess I just need to bite the bullet and try both. :-x

Maybe, something will rock for me...glad you seem to have found what works for you and congrats on getting your son on the vapor wagon. :banana: :banana: :banana:

I am really liking the CE3 bottom coil clearo's. Easy to fill, so far no leaks, easy to clean and a smooth easy vape. I've no desire to try anything else now that I have found these. Got mine from Eric @ DiscountVapes. He is out at the moment but should have a new supply in this coming week.

I love my Vivi Nova....and I have V1....have had no problems. Got Vapes is getting an update on the V2, probably next week. I'm waiting for that and will order a couple more of them. I did not like the CE3.....got lots of vapor, but no taste. Also not fond of the syringe fill. The 3ml version is much better though. Also check Discount Vapor for the E1 Revive....having very good luck with that. He also just got an E3 and Apollo Tank...both look pretty interesting.

I am going to have to give the CE3 a shot when Eric gets them back in stock..Been using the CE4 and CE5 but they seem to burn so hot. Hoping the bottom coil will be a little cooler.

Whoopie - Poppa's got to brag. My daughter ran a Tough Mudder Run today and completed it. She did the run with one of her friends. The Tough Mudder is a seriously hard obstacle course put together originally by the British Special Forces. The course went uphill from 8000ft to 11000ft and covered 13 miles of mud and water obstacles that are truly challenging.

Here's a link if you've never heard of this run. All the procedes go to help Wounded Warriors.

Tough Mudder - Probably the Toughest Event on the Planet

There's no winners meaning it's not a race to see who finishes first. It's a personal challenge for each person to finish and involves a lot of team work from the participants to help each other. It's advertized as the toughest event on the planet. I can't imagine jumping in freezing cold ice water and having to swim to the other side, then get up and run through an electrified web of hanging ropes zapping your body with high voltage. What the youngsters today do for fun - yikes!
