today, I went to the Vapor4Life site and saw the Premium cartridges for the first time. Now I'm all confused. When I first started getting carts from Vapor4Life, the plugs in the condoms were removable. I never liked this, since I always worried about getting the nicotine on my hands. Then, in my third batch or so, I started getting these wonderful carts with a nonremovable plug in the condom that simply slid back into the cart when I put it away. I haven't gotten a pyramid plug, to my knowledge, but maybe it's a visual thing that I can't appreciate. All of the ones I've received have had hard plastic caps. In any case, I'm interested in the taste of the Premiums versus the regulars. The page linked to in this thread doesn't say anything about this. Would I actually notice a difference if I bought one each of the same flavour and strength? Is there any advantage of a soft cap verses a hard one? I have no intentions of refilling or of taking apart the carts, only of using and then disposing of them. I'm also using an automatic battery if that makes any difference. Two batches ago, I got a 4mg Cowboy cart that leaked liquid into my mouth. I immediately washed it out with water and threw away the cart. In my last batch, I got a few Parlaments and FrenchPipes that had the sound like there was loose liquid in them. Even though they were 0s, I didn't take a chance on them. The FrenchPipe 0s had a bit of a different taste from the 4s and several of the Parlaments were very difficult to draw on. Did I just get some weird batches? Would this happen with Premium carts? Finally, I got the tobacco sampler in I think december and it had a Parlament in it. I absolutely loved it. But now I've heard that there's a difference between the old and the new Parlaments. I don't know the colour of mine. Based on the time I got it, which do you think I had? I tried telling if the 0s were the same as the 4s but couldn't really do so because of their lack of strength. Since 0s tend to be sweeter than 4s, I wasn't sure if it was the sweetness of the flavour or of the 0-strength that I was tasting. I've heard that the Originals are dry. So are they like the Camels or marlboros then? Thanks.
