I'm very new to this so please forgive me if I missed this elsewhere. I've viewed a lot of the videos and I'm currently playing with the straw mod. While I was at the store buying coffee stir straws, I looked for these tea bags, but I could not find anything that said they were pyramid shaped. Does anyone have a pic or something they could post showing one of the boxes these come in please? :oops:

Just go to the coffee / tea aisle of any grocery store. The Lipton pyramid tea bags are used for various flavored teas made by Lipton. They'll have their own little section on the shelf. You'll see right on the box a picture of the tea bag. It looks like a pyramid, hence the name.

On the back of the box it will say something like "Pyramid Bag - More Room to Infuse". Again, a picture will be there. 20 bags to a box. Very cheap, like $2 or $3.

Can't miss it.

By the way, some of the flavors of tea are delicious. Make yourself a cup and then tear open the bag, dump the tea, give the bag material a quick rinse under running water, and you're in business.

My experience with tea bags for my 510 is that they produce a denser vapor than polyfill. That means the vapor is saturated with more juice, thus delivering a stronger hit. Unfortunately, more juice condensates in the mouth and goes to the stomach. The juice has stomach irritants and can make some of us pretty sick.

Also, if you are vaping tobacco-flavored juices, that condensating juice tastes very nasty. But for pleasant tasting juices, more condensation enhances the flavor.

The 510 normally, and with the straw mod, produces a dryer vapor. Though the dryer juice has its disadvantages, I find I don't get sick with it. Also, less condensation of juice make it ideal for the nastier tasting tobacco-flavored juices.

I tried tea bags with my 510 and they seem complicated to me. An alternative to tea bagis to own two ecigs. One being the 510 with straw mod. The other being an Npro/RN4081, which is a great ecig that delivers a dense vapor by design.

HTH,
Dave
