Okay, here are my top five and other mention of favs. These are all based on dripping. My coils are always micro dual coils in the 0.24-0.34 range and either on a mech or on my raptor box mod which is set to 70-90w. I am getting into the new subohm tanks but this list is NOT considering tanks. I find different devices brings out different things, so that is why I am being so specific. Some juices IMHO tastes much better in a rda versus a tank and I am still figuring that out.

1. C#3
2. P#9
3. Nilla
4. Cinnagram
5. Beserker or samoan

other ones I really like:
Apple buns, tropical leaves, orangutan, cmc, RY4- gold, pixie tears, dew cream,

old favs that used to be ADV's until I vaped them too much. These are still great to roate in but I am not as addicted to these flavors as I once was. These are the ones that I mentioned when I first posted about ITCVapes.
SL V2, DD,BBC, LCB, HB, BM, Monkey cake, Melon twist, munchies

Since I'm headed to class I'll just quote myself. :)

should i spend 50$ and get free shipping from ITC for a first time buyer from this place? was thinking of getting around 10, 15ml bottles to sample for 50 bucks

150ml for $50?

I was also thinking of trying out Sleeping Dragon Vapor, sorry if conflicts the ITC thread.

Jst got back onto vaping and my juices are 2 1/2 years old. Just ordered some from MT Baker Vapor and have been looking for other top pick vendors to try out.

Thanks for any advice

I always prefer getting a variety of flavors. Not all flavors are advs but there is a higher probability of you order more in smaller bottles. Read the reviews on their site to get an idea what the favs are. Do you tank or drip? Setup? I ask bc for dripping the max vg is thicker than most other vendors which is a good thing but keep that in mi d when picking ratio especially if you don't drip.

If you see 10 or more flavors you like on their menu, that would certainly be the most economical way to sample a large variety...unless you can hold out for a likely sale on St. Patrick's Day, in which case you just might get to add another flavor or two for that price. Good luck and welcome back!

Just loaded up a tank of Dew Cream after waiting almost 10 days for my order to arrive.

It taste great but i have a question for you guys.

I was vaping with the 0.5 ohm OCC coil - Subtank Mini - at 15-18W and it was soooo smooth

Now when i switched to the 1.2 ohm OCC coil - Subtank Mini at 12-15W it is SUPPPPPPERR HARSH

This sucks because i read that 1.2 ohm is less harsh and less hot and so i went and bought 10 1.2 ohm coils

Coil placement can have an effect on harshness. It's my understanding, the higher the coil is placed, the more harsh a vape can be. And are you sure it's wicked adequately? Is it a harsh vape your having, or is it a burned taste?

Knowing it's not the juice, the first thing that comes to my mind is a problem with wicking. If the wick itself was to burn, you'd taste/smell something like paper. But if the wick was wet it won't readily burn, at least not to any real extent unless you really stood on the fire button. If the (wet) wick isn't in good contact with the coil, what juice that does reach the coil will burn- and that will be a harsh taste for sure.

Next is having a hot spot on the coil or even a hot coil leg. I've never used those heads but I'm fairly sure you'd need to take it apart to tell. For right now I'd probably set that one head aside and try a new coil. Hopefully it'll be okay and the bad coil can be rebuilt later on. I'm sure there'll be other good suggestions, too.

Good luck.

Did you remember to prime the coil and wick before filling your tank and taking the first drag? I usually let the tank sit for about 3 minutes and take a few
unpowered ("primer") puffs. You might or might not see any bubbles come from the air holes; with my SubTank (the original, big one) sometimes I see air bubbles, sometimes I don't.

Or it could just be a bad head. I've already run into a few of those. That REALLY REALLY sucks because these things aren't cheap, and my first few lasted several weeks each so I thought they would be QC-error free. I mean, the design for these heads is pretty simple. But obviously, bad ones DO slip through.

If you do decide that the head is bad/burnt, go ahead and switch to a new one. Maybe try taking the suspect head apart for inspection just to see what's doin' in there.

Hope that (or any of the other good info already provided) helps!

Thanks for all the advice. After a while the harshness definitely did go down.

How many hours should i leave the caps off when breathing my juices?

Also, does anyone else wish that ITC would get some more water resistant labels. The juice and water bleed right into the labels. Not a big deal but there has to be a solution on cheap labels if companies like Vape Wild have pretty nice labels and bargain basement pricing.

Overall, after trying the Dew Cream and smelling the other 9 flavors I ordered, ITCVapes seems like really high quality stuff i am very impressed.

Correct me if im wrong but they dont use any alcohol flavoring right?

I am using an iStick 30 and Nautilus Mini. I dont drip or rebuild..yet. I was also thinking of getting the Kanger Subtank Mini off the ITC site on another note. (And an MVP 3.0 off another site for 50$ origin vape)

Trying to go with top pick flavors through their ITC reviews and info on ECF. All the juices I get would be 50/50 12-18ml
Thinking: Nilla, Cinnagram, Heavens Bounty, Spoon OG, Mach10, Miimiso, Black and Blue Cheese, Dirty Dutch, Turkish blend.

if you go back to post# 4710 and read for a page or two some people listed their fav juices and stuff. It might be helpful. What you have listed so far sound good though :)

thanks sarah.

What gear are you using?

I have mechs(2x stingray x 18560 and 26650) king mod, old magnetos and a few old ones on the shelf, and various drippers that I rotate with but mostly I use my two raptor 120w mods. All my builds tend to be around 0.24 on mech and ~0.32 on my raptors which I have set at around 90w. I use tobh, big tobh and darkhorse (I have other ones but go back to the tobh's and darkhorse). I use either the Delta 2, atlantis or arctic on my IPV2.

I prefer max vg in dripper and either 30/70 pg/vg or 50/50 in the subohm glassomizers. 6mg- drip and tank and sometimes 12mg in tanks.

The 30/70 is great and yes more liquid then the Max VG, if you wick it with cotton (which I always do anyways) the trick is, drip less and more often and you will not have spills, you have to be very careful with dry hits as you will ruin the cotton.
I have a 2x Mec Mods (1x Stingray X, and a Vanilla Mod) and on the atty side I have my loved Tobh Atty, and I have also a Plume veil (the second is a pain to coil).

All my Attys run at a 0.40 Ohm setup the vape is not too hot nor too cold, the Tohb has plenty of air intake, and with the cotton (not Japanese cotton) the unit works great, just that I will not go back to 30/70 using either setup for it, and go back to Max VG, maybe skew down on the Nic a bit.

I have also a Provari mini with a Kayfun tank running normally at 1.2 Ohms and there the 30/70 is too thick as it takes a lot to generate vapor. I have grown tired of the tricky wicking of the Kayfun and how hard it is to get it right. I have out grown the Tanks all together as Kayfuns look great, but the vapor, nor the TH is there for me.

I only use tanks when I am driving or sitting around with my toddlers. I still prefer my drippers. I actually bought 10x the tobh big black attys straight from a Chinese company cheaper than FT. They were less than $7/atty. just in case they quit making them.

Just wanted to say that I don't think i'll be making my Vape Wild purchase. I had been putting it off, but gave the tip to a friend of mine.

He ordered a 6 flavor sample pack. He just finished them off and said he wouldn't order again cuz they "sucked." The only one I tried of his was the Vanilla Cloud, as it was supposedly a pretty popular flavor. It was very ehhhh to me. Kinda like eating vegetables for people that don't like eating vegetables. You can get through eating them, but you're not going to enjoy it.

This is the same friend that vaped my MBV Moo Juice and Top Vapor French Vanilla Tobacco that both were nasty.

Yeah, the only ones that I really liked was tiramisu, otcc, and fruit hoops which I didn't get any cereal flavor just the fruit and milk flavor. I don't like to compare but yeah I am not arguing with ya ;-) taste is subjective. The ones I mentioned above are good for tanks but I can't drip vw. Not say g they are bad but I prefer itc.

I'm reserving judgment for a couple more weeks but out of 10 VW flavors I got the only one I like so far is On Cloud Custard which is actually pretty good, their recipe isn't overly sweet like many other custards I've tried. I guess if you can find even one flavor at $20/120ml its worth it.

I really only wanted to try their Tiramisu because it was reviewed so well, but I imagine it's going to taste similar to Mach 10. A creamy coffee vape, but maybe with some cake undertones. Might as well stick with what I know I like. I received my 240ml on Monday. I usually do caps off for 3 days, but I only did for 4 hours. No need to speed steep either. I still have about 40ml left that should last me about another 3 weeks or so.
