2. I believe that's a temporary measure. The company was really overwhelmed late fall, with both retail and wholesale orders. For December, the company wasn't taking any orders at all. It was also opening a physical vaping cafe, so there was a lot going on. The reason for the "new customer" limit is that Ahlusion wants to keep its existing customers happy. In my opinion, it's worth the effort to get in. The company makes some really unique dessert and beverage flavors, as well as some of the best tobacco you can find. The customer service is top notch too. As you keep ordering, Ahlusion develops a flavor profile for you and customizes your juice to your likings.

4. that sounds backwards to me. i mean, i get happy customers but whatever. personally ive tried 5 of their juices 2nd hand and i didn't like any. may have just been bad flavors, but what can you do. i dont want to get involved in having to deal with that kind of system.

My computer went off last night when the electricity went off. Now, I get the dreaded Blue Screen when I try to boot. I was talking to a tech guy and he said to unplug the power cord for 30 seconds. Nown the %^&&%$ thing won't turn on at all. Gotta find someone to take it to, I guess.
I'm on a friends computer so I will just check in when I can. I haven't disappeared!

3. It could very well be that Ahlusion's juices aren't for you. Everyone has different tastes. Everything I've tried from Ahlusion has been very good to outstanding. The juices do require adequate steeping time though.

As for the business practice, like I said before, selling juices directly to customers is only part of what the company does. Personally, I liked that it limited business to keep existing customers happy. The alternative was to keep it open and face a situation similar to what Vape Dudes experiences in Fall 2012 when the company was so overwhelmed that it took it three weeks or more to ship an order. Either way, there are going to be unhappy people.

CHAT @ GlassmanOak - Hang in there! Do you have windows? Re-install that puppy, get back online, locate, and download every program you need for your specific computer [monitor, sound, whatever was put out by the CPU manufacturer] and if the system is running slow or you have an issue again, JUST RE-INSTALL Windows & your machine-specific software! 3-4 hours tops and you have a fresh computer.

I just broke down and filled a new Triple V tank :'( I have been hiding [hoarding] them to use once my clearo/cartos all died out :/ Problem is... I am sick of the FLOODING and my first bottle of alcohol is trashed due to cleaning up after flooding. I think that they flood continuously right before they stop working completely... I can understand flooding if I overfill the carto, but flooding when it is 1/2 full is BS, ESPECIALLY when all the magnificent joose is lost :/ Naturally, the 'carp' joose gets put in a great carto :p

All I am gonna say in comparison is...

A FRESH TRIPLE V POLYPRO TANK is friggen DIVINE and the clouds of vapor are MAGNIFICENT :p

I would do all that, but the----thing will not turnon or boot up in any way. The DVD drives won't even open. Something more than Windows problems going on. Seems dead, electrically.

I would get it checked to see if you fried the power supply first, thats the most likely culprit given the symptoms you just described. If its not the power supply unfortunately it will most likely be the motherboard or cpu at that point.

Should probably mention that I just finished a course on Computer operations systems and troubleshooting as well.

@ GlassmanOak - They are right... power issue, not Windows... Sorry, I saw blue screen of death and thought Windows was the issue. Hit up Craigslist! Snatch up a CPU for cheap =] I buy them off of Craigslist every once in awhile and re-install what I need just to have a backup. I used to buy 100s of CPUs at state/govt auctions, rebuild them, wipe the HD clean, re-install the OS, and then Craigslist them. You find someone with a Windows Installation disc and you can just buy the license from Microsoft pretty cheap for a single system.

5. I've noticed that too, at the end of a cartos life it definitely floods more. Also if the tank is close to empty, like if the juice level is lower than the top of your carto holes, it'll flood too. Not sure of the physics behind it all lol. Oh and pg/vg ratio vs. Hole size too. :)

Chicken Alfredo for dinner! Nomnomnom :) wish I had some mushrooms to put in there but its all good.

Ahlusion - Wipeout Honeydew with Breeze
Ahlusion - Blue Grass Burley
Ahlusion - Boba Tea
Ahlusion - Poppin' Peach
Ahlusion - Mimosa cocktail

4. Those look like some great choices! I've quoted the ones I've tried and will add some notes below.

Wipeout Honeydew with Breeze: Absolutely delicious this way. I was initially going to order a stronger menthol level, but Wlad suggested Breeze. In the end, I was glad he did. The menthol is still there, but it doesn't overpower the wonderful honeydew flavor.

Blue Grass Burley: My favorite tobacco e-liquid ever, though Ahlusion has some new ones that could displace it. I have a bottle of Vurley (kind of like BGB + vanilla) here and Honey Cured on the way. The company also added Cocoa and Maple tobaccos to its premium aromatics line.

Boba Tea: I liked this one a lot, but would have liked a little less sweetness and more creaminess.

Poppin' Peach: One of my favorite peaches -- very natural taste.

Mimosa cocktail: I ordered this one with standard champagne and orange. The orange flavor was delicious, but the champagne was slight. I'd order this again, but with the "extra champagne" option.

#2 My two favorite vendors so far are Alien Visions and Heather Heavenly Vapes.I use carto tanks as well.These are the flavors Ive tried from them that Ive liked.

Bobas Bounty, Rich tobacco taste with a hint of something else thats hard to describe.Kind of an earthy taste. Just when you think you've figured it out it changes to something else. Heavy plumes of vapor and great mouth weight similar to the smoke from a Marlboro light

Gorilla Juice, very similar to Bobas but with tastes of banana.Not flavored banana but banana peels very earthy tobacco taste.Heavy plumes of vapor and great mouth weight similar to the smoke from a Marlboro light

Hype , My favorite hands down. Tastes like Peach Schnapps or Peach rings candy, Tastes like a sweet peach cordial or lollipop.Great throat hit and vapor.

Craveloupe, Another favorite of mine, canteloupe and melons...very light crisp and refreshing tastes like vaping sunshine. Nice throat hit and vapor.

Christys Cappucino, Best coffee flavor Ive ever tried. Fresh coffee ground taste with a hint of cream and sweetness. very good throat hit excellent in your face taste and loads of vapor.

Dark Horse: VERY similar to Bobas bounty but with more of a smooth tobacco taste. Same rich earthy flavors reminiscent of oats or hay.Massive clouds of vapor and decent throat hit.

CHAT @ zapped - love the descriptions... just what I have been hoping for when getting some input about these juices. And gorilla juice - I have been waiting forever for someone to explain what it is like!

The Bobas Bounty & Dark Horse... do they start off like pipe tobacco? All of my HHV samples [Gandalf, Heavenly Tobacco, Huntsman, & Dragons Fire] did and it put me off, when I let them steep, they were magnificent, but I can't tell them apart with the little samples! My tastes are off & on repeatedly, so I keep thinking it is me, so I wait to get more reviews and then I will order again.

Wait, you have eaten hay? Haha, thanks for the reviews everyone. Very helpful.

Heh! I have been asked this before :p I think this is much the same as when you say it tastes like fresh cut grass... I smell it, so I can taste it. It is hard to explain...
