alien Visions always has such high numbers.... What are the flavors I should check into and is the 100% vg the preferred mixture?

Seems like the PG line is still mostly VG with 10% pg and 90%vg so is there really any difference?

I don't even know the difference between PG and VG and I think I should! No fav eliquid vendor yet....I'm breaking up with my vendor so won't name them.

I just cruised their webpage briefly. The NET snob that I am becoming made me look to see if they had NETS. Didn't see any. But I didin't look too closely either so I could be wrong.

Hey Bronze, I have been meaning to ask you what's your favorite NET from W2V? Do you like Vapenstein's or Donnley's better? I don't really taste a quality difference as much as it is just different juices with the same approach (but different hand). I was partial to Tabak Especial.

Essentially the difference is that PG has a sharper (not nbecessarily better) flavor and a harsher TH, while VG has more vapor and a smoother feel. Of course there will be outliers, but that is essentially a general rule of thumb. PG is also thinner that VG, but VG can be super thick or thin as PG, but you won't find PG in any other viscosity but thin.

Yes, there is a difference. VG is thicker and has a harder time in some juice delivery systems. I would suggest trying Bobas's Bounty and Gorilla Juice (you may have trouble if you use them in cartos), but that's about it as far as I am concerned. They have gotten a lot of "votes" here, but I don't think it is indicative of the whole company as juice makers as much as it is about one or two juices.

Has anyone seen that Donnley has cut his list of NETs down? https://want2vape.com/Premium-Tobacco_c_10.html

I could be wrong, but I think they're all still there. Maybe it's that the other tobaccos weren't NETs, because I don't notice anything missing when I click on "All Flavors." I need to put an order in with them for some more of their cigars... it's been a while!

Crafty, next time you go there would you kindly ask them to get the W2V Vapenstein blends in stock as I really want to try them :D

I'd get Ahlusion's Devil Dog and Blue Grass Burley, rather than London and Louisville if you can (I realize your predicament), but I think you'd like Managua if you're into cigars. It's one of my favorites. Paris is pretty cigarettey and Stockholm is quite unique, but probably not for everyone. Vulcan might not be able to get them though, since the Vapenstein Blends are a joint venture between W2V and Vapenstein, and might not be set up for wholesale if there are royalties involved.

I'm afraid I can't answer that. I never ordered from W2V (in small part due to your advice). While I like the HHV style NETS, I haven't warmed up as quickly to the "unshaped" NETS such as GeJ. I didn't think they were bad but I haven't quite evolved there yet. I did, however, enjoy the NETs from QNJ. In fact, I will be ordering some Grandpa's and/or Habana this weekend. They were more to my liking because they were milder and a little more "traditional" (in my view) than the GeJ vapes. W2V has been in my favorites file even before I saw this thread. And they are still there. One day I see myself giving them a try. But then I also have Ahlusion to try too. It never ends. And like you, I'm taking a break from sampling for awhile.

If I were Vapenstein and Donnley, I'd be working with an atty maker like Hannah to develop a very specific atty just for W2V! C'mon, why has this not happened? Otherwise, why buy those when you can get BGB or DD (which I am vaping right now) that don't require the maintenance and headache that W2V illicits? I guess they are not too similar (plus, W2V has a deeper menu), and many know how to circumvent those issues a little better, but still... I'm just sayin'!

hahahahahaha! Well, YOU MUST TRY W2V, but how and what you should use? I don't know! Man, the first 3 hits on the atty are great, but then, well, then you will see.

Bronze, W2V is unparralled in what tobacco should taste like, or more specifically, the types of and the particular form of the tobacco and what it would be delivered in (chew, cigar, cigarette, pipe). However, they are so damn close to smoking that it can almost be unfun. Unfun? Yep, so close you will feel like you are smoking...at least for the first few hits, then it will feel like your coils are smoking.

Oh man, wouldn't that be great! I'd most definitely buy special atties just for those juices, but as is, I have to check my bank statement and make sure I have plenty of extra atties on hand before I vape them!

Man, I am vaping DD right now and I think I am even more convinced that these 2 juices are putting the squeeze on W2V!

Yeah, if Vapenstein was still doing reviews (not sure why he's not, but his site's been quiet since last spring), I'd wonder what he had to say about them. I've always admired his objectivity, so I'd be surprised if he didn't give credit where credit's due.

Yo Mann, what's up bro?

Did you get the last package I sent? Gimme some juice reviews. :)

Dang man, where ya been? Well, of course I liked the Ahlusion, but the one that surprised me a bit was the GJ. It isn't bad. I prob won't order it, but I will vape it. Thanks for letting me try it. The Snickerdoodle lived up to the hype, at least in the sense of it being SPOT-ON.
