I guess my eVod is good & "broken in" now. The throat hit is really good from this thing. I'm not a huge fan of throat hit, but I'm liking this.

I'm having a hard time putting my Evod/Spinner down. It is so satisfying.....of course I'm vaping one of my sweet vapes......pre made Snickerdoodle. When I feel the taste is getting muted, I vape the peppermint that I made......not bad at all and it sure does the job of awakening the taste buds.

Someone had mentioned that Spearmint was just so so and to be careful with it, but the Peppermint was fine.
Well, when I opened the Spearmint flavor, it smelled so good and I thought since tastes are subjective, I'll try it anyway.
OY! It's good to listen to those who know better.....but I just had to try it to find out for myself....the peppermint on the other hand is a real winner!!!

Can't wait to see how you like it Fran!!! I used to be a very patient person before I started vaping. Now I just want all the goodies and all the flavors NOW hehe!!!

The convenience of buying stuff online is wonderful, but somehow it's still frustrating to pay my money and not be able to have what I bought immediately. I'm such a spoiled brat. Still, I guess maybe it's a good thing because it stretches out the thrill of buying something. It adds the anticipation of stalking the mailbox.

We have a funny thing that happens here at Christmas. It seems every year, after all the fuss is over, I find a gift stashed away that I forgot about. Never know who is going to be the recipient, but it never fails. I've gotten to look forward to it - kinda makes Christmas last longer. I love drawing out the happiness!

LOL I can't put mine down either. A little while ago, I was watching Hoarders and realized I had a PV in each hand. Not good LOL.

LOL I find myself doing the same thing........what's more, I normally keep one on an eye glass holder around my neck! A bit of overkill, but I just love love love my vapes and have to have at least two flavors with me at all times......:vapor:


Trying the Peppermint that I made last night. Tasting pretty good for a first try, but I think I might like it a little sweeter. Much better than the blueberry and pear I tried a few weeks ago. Looks like there might be hope for the DIY :)

Good thought.......I wouldn't mind a bit of sweetener either with my Peppermint.....don't have EM or cotton candy yet, but do have some of AltCig sweetener drops......may start with 1 drop in my 5ml bottle!

Yes, I think there is hope with the DIY.......I was feeling mighty down on myself for not understanding off the get-go, then I decided to be kind to myself and just listen to the folks on here......take one baby step at a time!

Fran I put peppermint in mine. I put peppermint in everything hehe.

Edit: Whoops, posted before I was done. This morning I got curious because one of the reasons I had wanted to try the eVod was because one of the vendors said it will handle thicker liquids. I have some all VG Peach I had gotten before I started DIY, so that is what I have in there this morning. And it feeds the VG joose good, with good throat hit. Not wild about this peach taste tho lol....

Is that something that a little distilled water would help with? Haven't tried that yet, but heard it might be good to thin VG?

congratulations for quitting and happy vaping, i have tried to get my mum onto them but she is finding the change difficult, she is 75 this year, smoked since her teens, now diagnosed with copd and has told me it is too late for her to change, i try a couple of times a month or so to get her to change to ecigs mainly for the convenience of being able to use them wherever and whenever she likes and she has taken on the disposable cigs okay, i feel one less analog for her is great, i have been smoke free myself for over 6 months now and really feel angry that governments are trying to stop us from being able to buy them and plan to write to my mep soon, the argument of passive smoking is not an issue now and i think it is just about controlling us, it seems the non smokers just can't leave us alone to enjoy our guilt free, cancer free etc smoke, keep up the good work

Congratulations on being smoke free!! Good job! If disposables work for your mum that's a good thing. I'd keep it as simple as possible or she'll be easily overwhelmed and give up on it. Ha! I'm only 63 and I'm easily overwhelmed! Finding a flavor she likes will help as well. Good luck and wishing good health to your mum!

They'll relax the regulations when they figure out how to make money on it.

Kat, I can honestly say that I have never done that (LOL)... Now, I have had two in my pocket at one time though - (BACKUP)...

I've been know to carry 3-4 when going upstairs or out and about, each with a different flavor. Should I be worried? NO!! The more the better!
