This is getting RIDICULOUS!

[jfango]

What is the world coming too! I'm sorry but there are simply WAY, WAY too many choices to pick from for almost everything you can buy these days! Whenever I go to Walmart, I see a gazillion varieties of almost everything...and then of course it means having to sort through them all and try to figure out which one might be best for me.....and sometimes "eany meany miny moe" is all I can muster! LOL!

I've been at this for almost 4 weeks, and already I have AT LEAST 50 different flavors of juice sitting around, probably enough to last me for a year or more...lol. I just got another 3 packages of new juice in the mail today, and I still haven't tried out the ones I got in the mail in the last three or four days yet....which presents me with yet another problem...which is not having enough of the little tank thingies to put them in since I already have about 15 of them and all of them have different flavors of juice in them that I really like...so now what? Do I buy a bunch more tank thingies? Or do I just empty one of them out and put something new in it? If I do that, it will mean I won't have a flavor I really enjoy at the ready. Hmmm....and I just HAD to take up a new hobby....lol

 

[jfango]

I've noticed that a lot of flavors that were kinda so-so at first have grown on me...and now I love em....maybe it is because they've sat around a while and steeped? IDK

 

[jackleg]

I too have way too many juices. I think I've finally got it narrowed down to 4. But wait I just got 2 more in the mail to try..oh well so much for that.

 

[SupplyDaddy]

Wait till you DIY and you want to make your own flavors!!!

Ditto that, I just hate not having enough cartos, clearos or whatever to drip anything I want whenever I want it. But hey, at least they're steeping, so no lost time.

I went overboard on juice for my first 9 months or so of vaping. I became a bit of a juice hoarder. So much so that some friends did juice interventions on me.....3 times.

I used to sit with 7-10 mods going at once, each with a different flavor with at least 20 tanks sitting full of other flavors waiting in the wings ready to go depending on my mood.

Now, over 2 years in, I only have 4 mods going right now. I have given away and thrown away more juice than you can imagine. I have settled in to my favorite juices and my favorite vendors and my 6-7 must have at all times flavors. I still like to try new flavors and new vendors but not on the scale I did before....not even close. I am choosing quality over quantity and I am a much happier vaper because of it.

Well I went a bit nuts myself at first but I made myself narrow it down to my top 2 vendors. I order once a month and that is it. Did take me a while though to find out what I liked from them. They are always coming up with new flavors so every now and then I try something new. Got my supply vendor narrowed down too. Makes it a lot simpler now.

 

[heretic617]

I have the same problem! I just started and ordered like 3 juices from one vendor, 3 from another, 3 from yet another and a bottle of menthol I liked for sure from a vendor I got cig-a-like cartridges from when I first tried vaping. I had an eGo C starter kit which came with 5 tanks... and a Vivi Nova for my twist. Now I just ordered another Vivi Nova because it BLOWS AWAY the little tanks and eGo C atomizers. But I like MOST of the juice I bought. One menthol was kinda.. well not mentholy.... and another was TOO punchy.. so I mixed them and BAM! The result was spectacular! The issue is... I want to try them all when I get them but washing out tanks and trying to dry burn my atomizer to get the OLD flavor out is a pain in the .....

BUT... I'm thinking the solution to this is the "dripping" I keep reading about. You can vame 3-4 puffs at a time this way, then drip something else. Now, instead of buying extra tanks and more vivi novas or nova coil/head/wick setups, I think I'll get a 510 atomizer and a drip tip for sampling juices. As I type this I have my favorite mellow (Read: vape more) juice on my twist in the Vivi Nova and my 2 eGo C's set up with other flavors I like all sitting on my night stand. I keep reaching for different rigs and puffing.

Funny, I just quit the analogs 5 days ago and ordered all 24mg juices because I was afraid to hurt for nicotine. Little did I know I'd like the flavors and the vaping SO much I'm feeling the effect of TOO MUCH nicotine and plan to lower the strength on my next orders so I can vape MORE without increasing my nicotine intake like this. I keep having to wait for it to wear off so I can vape. Hahaha!

Wow yall are some lucky people..

I have about 2-5 bottles of juice around until they're about gone i need to order more.

This is what dripping atomizers are for

 

[Ron AttyMizer]

I purposely keep only 2-3 juices on me. Any more and it becomes chaos. When I started vaping, I was getting new flavors every week and it was getting way out of hand. Eventually I had to shut myself down, pick some flavors I liked and stick with them. When I was near empty, I'd allow myself a new flavor while keeping a tried and true one on hand for my all day vape. There are still momentary lapses of reason. I vaped Unicorn Blood last week at Vapefest and immediately went online and ordered an industrial size bottle. Gotta love an impulse buy!
Everyone is different though...I know some of the cool kids keep pantries full of stuff!

Can someone explain to me how these work? They sound interesting but I love my tanks so dearly...

 

[Ron AttyMizer]

It's just dripping directly onto an atomizer coil. They're very good for trying juices, because you're literally only dripping 2-3 drops, and getting several hits before the flavor runs out. (though sometimes stronger juices seem to "stick" around on the atty!).
Me personally, once I try a juice and like it, I tank and go....but usually after test dripping it first.

 

[charmed412]

I hate dripping but for trying flavors, it's a necessary evil for me. But I did find an atty that I love so that helps. I have boxes full of 306s and dewicked and debridged 510s but the first time I used the Premium 901 from Empire, I knew that was it! I am a carto tank/Kanger girl but I do enjoy the 901 on my Empire mod.

that reminds me, I need to pick up some more from Keith at VapeBash.

 

[Lessifer]

I'm a clearo kind of guy, usually use Kanger T3s, but I recently bought a rebuildable dripping atty so I can test flavors, and have come to like it a lot. Dripping attys are basically just a coil and wick that you wet with your juice and vape, usually just a few drops at a time. It's easy to just clear it out and change flavors, and for me at least, the flavor is cleaner, and the nic hit seems stronger. You can buy disposable dripping attys(similar to a cartomizer, with no filling) or go the rebuildable route. Most of the rebuildables can actually hold a good 10 drops or more. I've been using mine at home, and I like that I can predetermine how much I'm vaping in one session, drop in six drops and I know I've got about a 7 minute vape session. If I want more I just put in a few more drops.

 

[Bellerine]

I did the same thing. I currently have nearly 70 flavors. Yeah... I wanted to try EVERYTHING!

I've found though that, while there many I like, there are only a few I just refill rather than clean and replace with a new flavor when they're empty. To me, that's the sign of which ones I reorder. Try limiting yourself to just 4 or 5 tanks and see which ones you want always in your rotation, and which ones you switch out.

Also, don't feel bad about it! You're not smoking! You're excited about a new hobby. A new hobby which isn't going to kill you. So don't stress about a zillion juices, it'll naturally begin to pare itself down. Even if it doesn't, so what? For me, it's partly the excitement and variety that keeps me off analogs. I just read a thread about that kind of thing. Like I said there, I get excited when I get new juice in the mail. I was never excited to buy cigarettes. I revel in that.

 

[zapped]

I try to keep vaping like everything else in life as simple as I possibly can.Complicated is not always a good thing.

 

[MaxUT]

A cheaper option than dripping attys for trying juices: Kanger bottom coil carto with filler removed.

I get them from Litecig, $6.85 for a 5-pack as I recall. Slide the filler out and use them just as you would a 510 atty.

Hmmm....that sounds like a cool idea...I think I will be trying that today!

LOL! That will be me talking in another 6 months. Today I decided to just empty out about 6 tanks and put those in the reject pile. I liked them, but it was "so-so" like and not "can't put it down" like. If I ever get one of the smokers I know to give this a try, I'll probably hand them my ever-growing box of reject bottles of juice and wish them well. It would have been really nice to get something like that when I first started doing this. I have been a good boy on the hardware part though...I have a Zmax and have no intention or desire to get anything else, it is a perfect step up from the stick battery starter kit I got at first. I might give the starter kit away to someone who shows an interest in quitting smoking....along with the juice. I think I'll be perfectly content with the Zmax.

I'm planning to just find about 5 or 6 flavors I really like a lot, the ones I have a hard time putting down once I start vaping them, then stop with the sampling. My newest sample is Gorilla Juice from AVE and I have a feeling it's gonna be one of those I can't put down!
Vape on!
