Both juices ordered as 3 ml samples to try out. Both 18 mg nic content.

First up is Strictly E-juice's 555: Not bad. Although, I'm not getting much of the nutty flavor I've heard mentioned so frequently in regards to 555 juices. It's there but very faintly. It definitely tastes like tobacco but I was really looking for more of a nutty undertone. I could see this being an all day vape if you're into tobacco flavors. For me, not so much. The throat hit is excellent. Amazing vapor production from a fresh 510 cartomizer and 510 mega battery. For now, I'll give this one a 3 out of 5 stars although it could grow on me. ***

I've ordered a bottle of 555 from Vapor Renu as well. We'll see how the two compare when that one arrives.

Next, we have their Raspberry flavor: Quite good. The raspberry flavor is prominent and doesn't have that perfume taste I've found so frequently with other fruit flavored juices. It does have a slight "plastic" aftertaste to it but it's not so bad that the juice is unvapable. However, the initial hit is spot on raspberry. I think this would mix well with a coffee e-juice or by itself if you're in a fruity mood. I don't see it being an "all day" vape without a mixer though. The throat hit is considerably less than the 555 but still there. Again with a fresh carto and 510 mega battery, vapor production was excellent. I'll score this one 4 out of 5 stars. ****

Both good juices but still not the all day, 24/7 vape I'm looking for. The search continues!

I really like strictlyejuice 555 it used to be my daily vape. A lot of people compare it to puresmoker's 555. Havent tried the rasberry yet. I have been eyeballing it though. I think beside a few chocolate flavors I have got from them everything has been really good. It's the highest quality dekang. I believe they use usp 99.9% PG in their juice.

I think you're right here and that's the one thing that bugs me.
I like to have a strong VG mix if not 100% VG. I wish they offered the option to mix PG/VG to personal preference.

They do have 36mg VG juice, just don't try their VG RY4. Unless you like the taste of cheap cherry tobacco.

BTW, goodprophets has EXCELENT VG juice, particularly the RY4 and 555. Their VG fruit flavors are the best VG I've had. Check out some reviews: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...g-based-liquid-feedback-reviews-requests.html


BTW, just curious, how long did it take to get to you. I have ordered twice from SEJ, and it took a week each time even though I live 10 miles from them. :(

I always get my orders in 2-3 days from day of purchase. Except this last time took 6 days to get a replacement for my riva battery because their email servers went down. I've never had a problem with them shipping and replacing items ever. One reason I like SEJ Juice is that it's 99.9% PG/VG and my atomizers seem to last a long time using their juice. And I get a lot better vapor production than anywhere else. That's why my two vendors are SEJ and FSUSA both use 99.9% PG/VG.

It took a little over a week because of Columbus day. I had received orders from them before within 3-4 days so I was really disappointed. They shipped it the same day as an order I placed with another company though and it was here in a couple of days. I guess I can only blame USPS for that one.

Don't know about that. When the tracking info says it has been electronically recieved, that does not mean that it has been sent. I ordered at the same time from GP on the other side of the country, and I got it on tuesday. I don't think SEJ necessarily sends it out the same day that the shipping info is recieved. All that means is they went through stamps.com and paid for the shipping, and printed the label. Doesn't have anything to do w/ when the USPS actually gets there hands on it. When the tracking says it has been processed through such and such PO, then you know it is in the USPS hands.
