My first ALPHA review :)

TAJ Rebuildable Atomizer tank Kit - 3 Coil Wicks - CLR

I've been using this for a couple days now. I've used it on my Vision VV and a standard EGO. I'm using the pre-installed 2.4 Ohm head. juice is a 70pg/30vg mix.

Pros:
no dry hits (I did prime the wick)
no leaks
no sludge
good amount of vape
good flavor
sturdy construction

Cons:
Bulky
Heavy
drip tip cannot be changed

I gotta say for only having 2 wicks it performs better than I expected. In comparison with the Splitfire, the Splitfire would win out... it's not as heavy/bulky and the drip tip can be changed. I guess I'm not a big fan of the metal drip tips... seems weird going back to a cold tip with every hit.

Hope this is useful ;)

Got my vapemail from GV yesterday with a few alpha items but the first one I got into was the Cherry e-juice from Vision. I love a good cheery juice but am also a bit picky about cherry because most vendors have a problem with it usually ending up tasting like cough medicine or a cough drop. I wanted to test out the new juice and cherry was the one flavor that was interesting to me so I decided to take a chance and see if Vision produced a cough medicine or not.

This was a good vape! And it was not a treatment for coughing! The cherry was just enough to taste a real fresh cherry fruit taste and without any hint of that medicinal flavor or any kind of menthol as an addition.

The e-liquid was a bit thicker then I am used to with many fruit e-juices but not enough to be a juice that blocked up things or did not vape well. I got plenty of good vapor along with the taste and actually am close to finishing up the bottle as it was good and I did not want to switch to another flavor when the tank went empty. Even though thicker then my usually experience it wicked will both in a bottom and in a top coil tank

The bottle come with the loner 'blunt needle like' tips so it makes this juice easy to use no matter what your filling and I did not have to switch to syringes or bottles with blunt needle tops to use in atty's with filler holes. The bottle itself id a bit hard to squeeze as it is out of that hard plastic - especially when you have a thicker juice which often needs some 'help' getting dispensed the harder plastic bottle can be hard to deal with. The bottles are brown, in case you take them out and about wtih you.

While the other flavors did not spark my interest, that's nothing against the juice. Those are not flavors I would select to vape under any situation but I am hoping to see more 'fruit' flavors from Vision E-juice, given how the cherry turned out.

I wish I had enough, well I wish I had extra money to try those two together myself but the bills are about all paid & all that's left is enough to get a little e-liquid to add to what I have now in order to get through the month b/c I had to replace my Bomber VV. The button's gone kaput & the Lambo VV won't work either; it keeps changing the voltage or cuts off every time I use it. :( I knew it was dying but to lose my Bomber VV was sad.

Everyone I talked to recommended the SID e-cig; although, I was seriously looking at the re-tuned Zmax. I know all are problematic in their own way but the vendor I used a lot for parts & mods are not going to be carrying them for much longer. They're switching to Egos & I'm not fond of ego e-cigs. I have one now that I need to charge after only using it a few hours tops. They just don't have the running power of a decent mod or what I think a decent mod should be anyhow. I keep Jones'ing for a Provari but there's NO WAY I CAN AFFORD THAT! I can't help but wonder if those e-cigs have diamonds, gold, or some other high-end jewels in it to charge damn near to over $200+

For all those who are able to give these a try, think of me & enjoy the heck out of the newest addition to the E-Cig World & Congrats on your new e-cigs...

My DH & our friends (mostly the male ones we've known for yrs) get so annoyed when I find a cherry e-liquid just as they did when I found Sweet Dreams in cherry flavor & the cherry-flavored bidis.

Used to when we went out drinking & shooting pool before I began losing my sight, I tried teaching them how to twist the stem of a cherry into a knot & none of them could ever do it but they had this abnormal male fetish of watching me tie the stem in a knot using just my tongue. I'm sure you can imagine how upset they were when the cherry cigarettes came out. Poor fellas. LOL!

Glad you found some decent cherry-flavored liquid. I've had to find any that didn't taste like medicine or cherry cough drops... the next time I can make an e-liquid run, I'll give them a try. thanks for the info.

:)

Desoto, Mo
back when I could afford to get juice all the time (I mostly just diy now lol) I use to be pretty fond of the cherry sucka from hot vapes - it tasted like the clear suckers that the bank would give you for your kid siting in the back seat going throught the drive through lol
I think my next order I get to make will have to include the new cherry love fluff it sounds like it should be pretty good ;)

I envy you in the most well-intentional manner. I couldn't mix my own e-liquids no matter how hard I try. It comes out tasting horrid. It's either too hot, too bland, or too sweet, or not sweet enough, etc... Perhaps one day I'll get it but I can't help but believe it has a lot to do with the fact I can't see the beaker numbers and such to mix the liquids correctly.

Again, consider it envy of the most complimentary type.

:thumbs:

PS: Thanks for sharing. I just added the new link to my notepad in Outlook so I have another link for flavors I would love. Over the past several years I've gotten doggie biscuits, esp from our local bank when I was able to walk that far. If they were closed inside but the window was open, each of my guide dogs knew how to take me through the window for vehicles. The tellers always put a few extra doggie biscuits through the window for each them. :) I was the first in my county to have a guide dog so it took some adjusting. Even the bank updated their tiny biscuits for little dogs with a box for larger dogs for my guide dogs. And the entire bank, including the the President got the biggest kick when my first guide brought me around to the teller window. I guess there was no telling her no and she just followed the cars to where they were going. I don't know if she knew they were getting a teller or if she was smelling the doggie biscuits. LOL! Each one since has been a prized patron of this bank and the bank we use but is too far for me to walk to, although the bank local to me is too far for me to walk to now b/c of the spinal damage & pain.

If you happen to run across an e-liquid that doesn't have enough sweetener in it, almost as if it's missing the fruity sweetness or candied sweetness, there is a sweetener at My Freedom Smokes that does a wonderful job!

I'm big in sweet flavors so when they began carrying the sweetener in a bottle they mixed that can allow the adding of drops at a time until reaching that proverbial "sweet-spot" in flavor - that sweetener is the ticket! I add it to practically everything I vape.

If any newbies or veterans alike are having problems with nicotine fits and the e-liquids you use just aren't cutting it when you're under stress, irritable, or need that extra kick after meals or when you go out for drinks with friends, keep 2 of the 6ml bottles you can get in a 5pk at My Freedom Smokes. Mark one bottle with a rubber-band or those special colored bands I've run across online in a few places - the color bands don't do anything for me b/c I can't see the colors but if I add a rubber band below the threading & neck area of the 6ml bottles, I can tell which bottle is which. The banded/marked bottle is the one I add a few extra drops of nicotine to before going out & I keep both in my purse, tightening the lid, and carrying each in plastic thin/small fitting seal-proof baggies so there are no spills, it keeps the nicotine fits under control. You just simply add the liquid from the bottle that's marked with extra nicotine and use it until the craving passes.

I realize I tend to recommend My Freedom Smoke but when it comes to sweetener and nicotine liquid, these are two products that other stores online ORDER FROM MFS! If it's good enough for the other stores then it has to be more than good enough for us right? At least that's my reasoning. I also know that the nicotine liquid lasts well over a year in my chilling wine box so it's both dark & cool but not so much so it will ruin the flavor or cause it to discolor. I've used nicotine liquid from MFS that's been in my wine chiller unit that has been soem 1yr & 6mos and longer & it vapes as well then as it did when I first added it to the container unit. (If you get a wine chiller box, don't add red wines to it until you're living in the very deep South and even then, keep checking it so the reds become room temperature such as temperature in a restaurant b/c you don't chill reds; you only chill white wines; hwr, it can get so hot here that you can literally fry an egg on the pavement in the middle of summer...

I hope this helps someone here. Each of you have been so helpful to me; my only wish is to return the favor and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I'm so sorry... I was posting between 2 different threads & the other is somewhat of an "any question/comment goes" b/c that's the way that thread/forum (I can never figure out what these sections are referred to as but I digress.) and I very likely got confused between the two. It's why I don't normally post on 2 sections at one time "mix-up/mash-up". I mixed up & mashed up between them without realizing that's what I did. :oops:

Again, I am so sorry and I apologize to everyone on the thread and to you as well. I don't recall getting a first call out on it but I may not have run across it yet. I assure you that I will be more careful in the future; this is one of the biggest reasons there are so few, if any, online forums with multiple threads on multiple subjects w/strict topics of one type within each for the blind. We tend to work through programs like the former E-Group that became Yahoo Group(s). The only downside to that is there are few online at any given time of the day where it's the opposite on forums such as ECF. It's what I love about ECF, that and the fact there are many people available to answer questions who are sighted & are able to give information a blind person wouldn't otherwise be able to obtain without a lot of searching via search engine of choice.

Again, I apologize for getting the two threads mixed up. I cannot say I'll never do it again but you have my word that I will do my level best to ensure I double check the thread name to make it less likely for me to mix up the two again.

Warmest regards,

Paise

PS: I hope my signature file w/the banner isn't a problem. If so, please PM a note as to how to prevent it from showing here if it's against the rules.



Paise,

As mentioned earlier, since this is a GotVapes forum area... don't mention or link to other vendors... it's a bit rude and a no no besides...
