I got an email back from Carlos today. I was inquiring about the mouthpiece issue. He says that it was just a mistake made by his former employee and assured me that the mine and the rest of the juice Boxes will indeed come with a mouth piece.

I ordered mine on Jan 11th so it should be on it's way very soon. :D

For what it's worth Carlos got back to me in just over a day.

Despite an earlier thread listing an email from carlos saying that most juice boxes on back order would be mailed tomorrow, Janice is still sticking to my 2 1/2 weeks until I get my order (1 1/2 wks now), with a little wiggle room: "If it comes earlier, you'll be pleasantly surprised."

I haven't even seen which type of tip it uses. Is it an 801?
And what's the advantage of those t-tips or whatever it was?

sl

Ya they are 801's. Super T Tips are machined brass or stainless steel (they run $17-$20 each) and are a straight through tips used for direct dripping. They cant be filled like your standard carts, so they would be good for juice boxes because of the ability to drip into hole to temporarily switch flavors. Not nessessary, just juice box bling bling:rolleyes: Here's the link:

Super T Manufacturing, Innovative manufacturer of electronic cigarette products.

I'm gonna hold off until the JB gets here because I actually like the style of 801 tip. I read something about soft 801 tips from healthcabin or somewhere over there that would be cool. I want to size it up as well once it gets here to see if the brass or stainless steel will look better too.

flooded right after I put the bottle in lol, honestly I just paid attention to some of the tips that have been left here. I unscrewed the bottle a little after the first flood and it hasn't reflooded since then. It has decent vapor for a 3.7 the throat hit is...weird like it was a wetter throat hit initially if that makes sense to anyone but me, but I am quickly acclimating to it. Truly the tip about unscrewing the bottle a little bit was the best I have read, just remember if you do it, then don't do the vape with the box upside down tip!

I received my JB today and so far it seems a little tricky, but not impossible. I have not tried it much, been busy with other things. Dripped it a few times to get the feel of the draw, then filled the bottle just over half way, gave it a doorbell type medium push on the bottle to push some juice up and started vaping.

It still has a new taste, but if you take the side cover off and slightly push on the bottle you can see the liquid moving up and down in the tube. That gives an idea on how hard you have to press the bottle to make the liquid go up into the atty. I believe the tube will fill up after a few presses with the liquid level right below the atty that is why it is not necessary to mash down on the bottle once you get things going.

If you hold the JB to your ear you can hear the atty cooking the liquid, if not, it may be flooded, or if it tastes slightly burnt it may need a little more juice. I am still working on my technique to determine this.

The puff of vapor coming out of the tip may be a good indicator of how hard to press the bottle, but that will take some more practice to see if it is a reliable indicator on how to hard and deep to press the bottle. So far it has been fun!

Just some of my initial thoughts...

Your mom said not to say...
For what it's worth people there will be no repeat of this fiasco with ordering and wait times. Future orders will be on a limited basis to stock on hand so that frustrations on waiting times are eliminated much like with other mods that require pre orders. People need to remember that Carlos is an individual not a corporation as of yet anyway, so it's not like he can buy the parts for 1000 JB's with his rent and food money. That said though, I believe the new distribution and ordering method will go a long way toward alleviating the frustrations of the long wait.

Those experiencing some problems acclimating to the JB keep working on it, there is a small learning curve but once you get past it the thing is a beast.

Ummm....he was paid for the mods up front, wasn't he? Therefore, he wouldn't be paying for parts with 'his rent and food money'. But I'm glad he's getting his supply and ordering issues resolved.

I still say he's not following the laws of supply and demand, though. If people are snatching them up in the classifieds for $150 and up, the price should be raised on new orders. He could then preorder sufficient parts, hire extra help, etc., to get the boxes out in a timely fashion and still have a life in the meanwhile.

People will pay for a well made, quality vape. Matter of fact, I think the number of people (including myself) who pay for gg products, super t's, sb's and sbx2's prove this.

Maybe they should retro the price increase starting with....which order was yours clyde:) For what it is $90 is a fair price:) $150-$200, not so much:rolleyes:
