Ooops I did it again... Just placed an order at https://www.essentialdepot.com for 1 gallon each of pg/vg (plus castor oil for our garden - it's supposed to repel the squirrels and citrus rats that are eating EVERYTHING as well as fertilize the plants organically, Shea Butter, Aragon Oil, Xanthan Gum & a couple of essential fragrance oils :facepalm:)

I've ordered their PG & VG in smaller quantities before & love it - they have a really great quality product! If any of you are interested in trying your hand at DIY, it's a terrific deal - a gallon of each for $54 with free shipping - prices go up 10-20% at midnight EST tonight, so jump on it now :)

Happy vaping!

A gallon?!

Ok thanks guys. Guess I have some research to do. I'm seeing 18650 batts in 2000mah and 1600 mah so don't know which is recommended. But I know where to look! My project for downtime to ight t work :)

Hey LUV...I just bought AW high capacity 18650 2000mah for $12 each over at provape for my baby....I didn't think that price was too bad. Don't know if you're going to find a good quality battery much cheaper :)

And I got my vapemail today from ya!!! whoo hooo and LUVIN every minute of it...had to try Peach first since it seems all the rage around here and its worth the hype!!!! THANK YOU!!!

So this was me when I opened the box
:shock::vapor::shock::vapor::shock::vapor::shock::vapor::shock::vapor::shock::vapor::shock::vapor::shock::vapor:

My packages went in the mail this morning so they are on the way!!!

Deej stuff still in the basket, I'll probably wait until this weekend to place the order because.....Don is going on vacation and I needed more BWB...I just couldn't wait until he got back and then again through the backlog..

Sorry to hear about the truck....Glad to hear on one is hurt (maybe except a little pride and a little inconvenience).

Have a happy vape night!!!

Lol yes, a gallon of each! It was/is a great deal, it wound up being cheaper to buy the 2 gallon combo of PG/VG than buying a gallon of one ($54 for the combo w free shipping vs $59 for a gallon of PG plus shipping!). I bought a quart of each a while back, and think the quality is wonderful - I use it to dilute some of my juices, and sometimes vape straight VG or a VG/PG mix (very light, slightly sweet flavor - nice for the times that nothing really sounds good/not in the mood for flavor/taste buds are burnt out, but I want to vape). I'm also going to try my hand at some DIY - I lucked out on a Treasure Chest over the weekend, and should be receiving a package of flavorings in the next few days (didn't check the mail today, so it may already be here). Plus, VG is good for a variety of other things :)

:facepalm:

Have a happy vape night!!!

RTD has the AW IMRs for a bit cheaper than Provape, and is an authorized dealer, so there is no fear that their a lower quality battery with the AW IMR wrap slapped on them.

Another good option is the Panasonic's sold by SmartVapes Electronic Cigarettes and Ejuice - they're also safe chemistry cells, but not protected. I have a few of them, and they work well.

My packages went out today as well (for the life of me I can't remember if I mentioned that or not!), so vape mail should be arriving around the same time for you! yay!!!

Happy vape night! :smokie:

edited because I'm always mixing up RTS with RTD!

Thanks for the battery info guys.. I think I'll get the higher mah,, they'll last longer. The only thing I read about that I need to remember is flat top battery,, no nipple on the top of it or it won't fit. I think the charger I got is ok,, it's a trustfire and I read good things about those.

Hubby is off to golf with his bud.. it's quite overcast and I think they might get wet. Did he take an umbrella?? Of course not!! Guess umbrellas aren't manly enough and getting wet is!

I traded those fluxo's for some single coil cartos with a girl in Indiana.. good deal for both of us, I think. I wish I could have gotten those darn things to work right,, love the idea of them but I hate the gurgling and the dry hits.. Not one dry hit out of my Vivi..

Pretty excited about all the vapemail coming my way!! YAHOO! Maybe my Heather's stuff will come today.

My big plan for the day is a hair appointment. I've had the same cut for about 4 years and ready for something different.. not to mention all the gray that's showing up there.. yikes! Thinkin about cutting it all off short.. but I'll probly chicken out.

Hope you all have a terrific day!!

The batteries with a nipple fit for me, but there are a few batts (trustfire 18650 3500s) that need a little o-ring on the bottom cap so that the threading doesn't show. Not a big deal really, just an aesthetic issue :)

Glad you were able to trade the Fluxos for something you'll use! One of the many things I love about this forum is the opportunity to swap things that don't work for us with people who love them for things that we love!

Hope your hubby has fun golfing, whether he gets wet or not :)

Have a great time at the salon! Do you have enough length that you could donate to Locks of Love if you decide to chop it off? Hope you love whatever style and color you choose!

My big plans for the day depend on whether Iron Monkey manages to sneak out of the office early or not - he's off tomorrow & Saturday, but swapped shifts with someone on Sunday so she could spend Mothers Day with her family (both of our families are out of state) - best part of his good deed is that he has a 4 day weekend for Memorial Day now! Yay! We're both hoping he can get out early so we can run a few errands this afternoon (easier on me when I don't have to drive {can take meds before} or grab anything from a shelf, especially at CostCo! Besides, he makes sure I get an electric cart, and it's just more fun to go with him! :) ), and then we will have the next few days free to relax, recuperate, spend quality time together, and for him to study for another IT cert.

Everyone must be busy today!! Cheeky, I hope your little errand trip didn't put you on the couch for the rest of the day with a BIG bottle of meds!! Glen & Mythus have been quiet too.

Hubby's golf outing got rained out, they only got about 6 holes in. Took his truck to the body shop & made his appointment for next week. Who knows how long it's going to take to fix it. I guess that means I'm walking to work a couple days next week. Don't feel too sorry for me though, I live less than a block from where I work and walk almost all summer anyway. Used to walk in the winter too,.. Getting too old for that crap!

Got no vape mail today... Darnit. If I remember correctly, I should have two packages tomorrow. I really must keep better track of what I'm ordering!

Barb got her KGO kit today! I was worried she wouldn't get her juice so I loaded a couple Cartos for her so she'd have something until I can get over there and show her how to do it. I think she's pretty happy about it. I think my total obsessiveness scared her a bit. Had to tell her, it can be as easy as you want it to be, or as complicated. Apparently, I prefer complicated :)

I'll check in later, see if anyone's around. Hope everyone's having a good day!

Hey luvinit! Hope you're still vapin' strong on the Vivi. After a while, both the 1.8 and 2.4 ohm heads starting hitting harsh with a rubber taste, but I've put the 2.8ohm head on and I've been chain-vaping Zoe for the last 2 days. Still vaping the original Zoe I got while I let the Zoe ala Cheeky steep for a few days.

I'm pretty sure I'll be getting the Provari at the end of the month so I can do some true VV instead of this regulated VV that's limited mostly to 4v max. Don't get me wrong, Woody is an awesome mod (that will look better with the wood tank I'm getting), but boosted VV up to 6v is sounding really good to me now. I've got the VV bug!

Yesterday was a good vape-mail day because I got my EDB order in. Plenty of Dragon's Blood and Tear to keep me going for a while and a few other new flavors to try.

Today, was not such a good day because I checked the status of my order from DiscountVapers and the tracking information shows it going to Texas. I'm not sure if I got the wrong tracking number from Eric, or if he shipped to the wrong address, but I'm hoping for the former rather than the latter. I sent him a message from the web site and I'm waiting to hear back on the status of what happened.

I'm a sad panda... A sad chain-vapin', Zoe lovin' panda. :D

We didn't make it out today - I fell asleep right after IM got home from work, and didn't wake up until about 1130p! It was actually a good thing - since the accident, I tend to sleep a max of between 2-4 hours per day for weeks on end until my body finally shuts down and I sleep for 12-24h (waking up once or twice to take meds). So, we didn't get a darn thing accomplished, but my mind is somewhat less mushy than it has been, and my outlook is brighter :) yay!

I bet your hubby was happy he got those 6 holes in rather than no holes! I know how crazy golfers can be about their games!!!

I love that you can walk to work, Luv! I used to live 3 blocks from my office, and would walk to work every day unless the wind chills were causing advisories & warning not to be outside! Then I would drive, and half the time I'd wonder why when I had to walk a block to the parking garage lol I miss that sometimes - I loved those walks because they gave me a chance to clear my head before and after work, and it was beautiful in the winter when there was fresh snow, or there was a little snow coming down (I lived & worked in downtown Milwaukee - the winter decorations were beautiful, especially with fresh snow!). Funny, I don't miss long winters, but I do miss the smell and feel of fresh, light snow!

I'm super excited for Barb!!! Can't wait to hear how she fares with her new kGo - I hope she loves it as much as we do, even if she never makes it complicated ;) Iron Monkey met a guy at work who is also a vaper (yay!!!) - the guy loves his Blu, and has no interest in even trying the EgoT IM brings to work with him every day! He did take a card for ECB the other day though :) I'm sometimes a little envious of the people who keep it simple - they don't know what they're missing, and they're happy with what they have... I know we're all pretty happy with what we have right now, too, but we always have an eye open for the next great thing - the next amazing juice, killer carto/clearo/tank, etc. Last night I almost bought a THIRD LT, because it was a 3.0!!!! drrrrgh!

Cheers to the vapers who make it easy on themselves, cheers to the vapaholics who search for the next great thing, and cheers to the vapers who create the next great thing for us to discover! :smokie:

I'm a sad panda... A sad chain-vapin', Zoe lovin' panda. :D

Um... can I play with your Woody and your new Provari? (again, so much of vaping sounds so dirty lol) I think you'll like the Provari's ability to hit 6v - I'm surprising myself by using lower voltages most of the time lately, probably because I've been using my stardusts a great deal. I'm in love with the Green Monster from ECB in a stardust at 3.2 - I've been chain vaping it for days! I really thought that I would be a 5-6v vaping fool when I ordered the LT, but I'm finding that I use it primarily at lower voltages right now rather than higher voltages! I wouldn't want to lose the 6v capability for the rare instances that I do want 6v, but the thing I love most is the ability to dial in the perfect voltage, now matter how high or how low it may be! VV is a thing of beauty :)

No sad panda allowed! Look at your beautiful woody and big bottle of Zoe ala Cheeky (love that by the way lol), smile a big happy Tigger smile and remember that Zoes, Dragons and Tiggers are wonderful things! ;)

Don't be a sad panda! Your package will arrive soon, and if you're out of something, I can probably meet you somewhere and give you whatever it is you need to make it until that package arrives lol

I'm so sorry you're in turmoil :( If you need to talk, I'm always around & you know how to find me :)
Yay for goodies and Provape orders!!!! Enjoy the sunshine and warm weather - I hope your sunburn isn't too bad by Monday! If you can, grab a bottle of Hempz lotion - it has soothed every sunburn my pale Irish skin has managed to get in the last 4 years or so (since I discovered it), and even turns my burn into a light tan!! It's full of hemp oil and other wonderful things - soothes the burning, the itch and even the pain, isn't sticky, smells lovely (I buy the Cucumber Jasmine - the original smells like bubble gum lol), and feels wonderful :)

I placed another 2 orders today - one from Discount Vapers for 5 bright red stardusts (v1, on clearance for 2.99/ea), and 1 blue V2 stardust with the long wick. Then I found a classies post for 3 clear v2 stardusts for $10 shipped, and of course I had to hop on that!! So.. I have 9 more stardusts on their way to me - yay! I'm really enjoying them now that I've started priming them with 50/50 vg/pg before filling with juice - it really seems to absorb and remove that icky chemical taste they've always given off for me before! They provide the closest flavor to dripping for me, with none of the hassle (if you've ever tried dripping while laying down you know what I mean!). I still like to drip, and I really enjoy it especially with my drip shields, but stardusts simplify things & make the flavor much more portable!

I know you're all aware of this already, but I have to say that I love vaping in all of it's variations! I'm so happy that we have so many wonderful options for obtaining our nicotine fixes, and customizing our vaping experience for each flavor and craving we may have! We can crank the voltage up for a higher throat hit, crank it down for a mellower experience, use cartos, clearos, tanks, atties, stardusts, etc for the right combination with each juice. We can go VV or not, bottom feeding, top feeding, etc etc etc. The variety and combinations are almost endless, and I am grateful for every single option we have! Even the horrid CE2s that leak and give a wretched burning plastic taste manage to be useful when the guts are added to an Acorn tank! I'm grateful to be a vaper with infinite variety available to me :)

Happy vaping guys & dolls!

My heaven's girl!! You were up late after your big nap! Naps are good. I totally get the sleeping thing.. when I hit rock bottom cuz I haven't slept in a week I have a little friend I take, sleep for 8 or 9 hours and always feel SO much better after some decent sleep. But I don't like taking them all the time, so I reserve those for desperate times.

Sometimes I love all the options,, sometimes I hate it!! I guess what I really hate is spending money on the next greatest thing that turns out to NOT be the next greatest thing. I am still loving that Vivi though.. I think that's the best money I've spent so far. I keep lurking at Gotvapes, waiting for them to get spare parts in.. I might have to just order another whole kit so I'll have more than one tube. I've not had so much as one dry hit on this thing,, even when the liquid gets low. Best 15 bucks I've spent so far!

I'm jealous, Glen.. a provari!! I don't know if I'll ever spring for that.. I'm pretty happy with my KGOs for work and out and about and my LT for here at home. I find myself using lower voltages on that too.. not so much the higher. I don't think I've gone above about 4.2 on anything. And I was kinda bummed about not using the higher voltage but finally decided,, what difference does it make?? Absolutely none!!

Should be getting a little vapemail today I think.. Hella Vapor. I keep thinking I'm getting something else, but can't for the life of me remember what.. gotta check my ecig email and see if I ordered something else I forgot about!

I hope everyone has a fabulous Friday.. my favorite day of the week... 8 short hours of work and then done for two and a half days.. YAY!!

Welcome to our little club BHam.. we've become a close knit little group here but we love new vapaholics!

I got vapemail today!!! I was right, I did have two orders out there :ohmy: Got stuff from Heather's Heavenly Vapes and Hella Vapor. I haven't tried them all, but quite a few of them.. this is what I think so far (did I mention how much I love my EgoC?)

Hella Vapor.. I got Wonderland, a tobacco blend. They must use the same tobacco base that MOV uses,, it has that same taste, but for some reason I didn't mind it so much. I think it needs to sit a bit, but it wasn't horrible. Dragon's Breath also has that tobacco base in it, but with a little fruityness so that one isn't horrible either. I'll let that sit for a bit too and go back and try later. Now,, the Icy Plum Drops.. that ones pretty darn good!! Not a huge fan of menthols but this one is really pretty nice. Very light, perfect for summer I think. Good icy kind of throat hit with just a touch of fruit. I like this one.

Heather's.. I got a bunch from there. Mocha Java Smoothie is probably the best coffee vape I've found. Most coffees are quite bitter and strong.. this one is a very mild coffee, hint of chocolate and creamy smooth and just a tad sweet at the end. Wish I'd gotten a bigger bottle of this one. Hot Chocolate with Marshmallows tastes just like that.. not as good as ECB Chocolate Sin, but not bad either. Atomic Grasshopper is a decent chocolatey minty flavor.. they aren't generally my favorite but this one is pretty good. The Vanilla Dream is a little light, maybe it'll toughen up with some time. My favorite from HHV is the Pineapple Mango Smoothie.. if you're looking for something nice and light for summer.. this one is YUMMY!! The pineapple is very light, doesn't smack you in the face and the mango just smoothes it out nicely..

All in all, pretty happy with my vapemail today.. tomorrow I'll try the ones I didn't try today. And a few of them I'll put away for a week or so and revisit later.

You know, I'd rather sit here and enjoy my new goodies, but I have to go to work.. :mad: But it's Friday!!
Vape happy friends!

Hi all... Yes I know I've been very quite this week... Inner turmoil.... I should be walkin on cloud 9 hell I should be dancin on that silver lined cloud...but turmoil... So I'm just workin it out... I do peek around though when I have the chance during the day so I can check up on my girls *wink* and tigger hahahaha

(boing... boing...) :D

Um... can I play with your Woody and your new Provari? (again, so much of vaping sounds so dirty lol) I think you'll like the Provari's ability to hit 6v - I'm surprising myself by using lower voltages most of the time lately, probably because I've been using my stardusts a great deal. I'm in love with the Green Monster from ECB in a stardust at 3.2 - I've been chain vaping it for days! I really thought that I would be a 5-6v vaping fool when I ordered the LT, but I'm finding that I use it primarily at lower voltages right now rather than higher voltages! I wouldn't want to lose the 6v capability for the rare instances that I do want 6v, but the thing I love most is the ability to dial in the perfect voltage, now matter how high or how low it may be! VV is a thing of beauty :)

No sad panda allowed! Look at your beautiful woody and big bottle of Zoe ala Cheeky (love that by the way lol), smile a big happy Tigger smile and remember that Zoes, Dragons and Tiggers are wonderful things! ;)

Don't be a sad panda! Your package will arrive soon, and if you're out of something, I can probably meet you somewhere and give you whatever it is you need to make it until that package arrives lol

(In my best ....-head voice: uhhh-huh-huh... She said wood... That was cool!) Okay, no more sad panda because I'd rather be a Kung Fu Panda anyway!

The order didn't show up today either, and the tracking still shows it in Texas (from 4:26AM yesterday). I did get a message back from Eric at DV confirming that the tracking number and shipping address are correct, so this is just a case of mis-routed mail. Hopefully I'll get it tomorrow, but if not, then I should have 2 good vape-mail days next week because my wood tank should be ready as well. For now, the one good Stardust I have left is holding out strong for when I'm out and about and Vivi is sitting on Woody at home.

However, I sincerely thank you for your offer (again), and I may take you up on that if the package is delayed for more than a couple more days.

I'm jealous, Glen.. a provari!! I don't know if I'll ever spring for that.. I'm pretty happy with my KGOs for work and out and about and my LT for here at home. I find myself using lower voltages on that too.. not so much the higher. I don't think I've gone above about 4.2 on anything. And I was kinda bummed about not using the higher voltage but finally decided,, what difference does it make?? Absolutely none!!

Don't be jealous (or hatin'), because I don't have one yet. :) The blue LED option is supposed to be available on May 31st, and a lot can happen between now and then. I was also thinking of getting the new eGo-C Twist batteries, but I'll probably hold off on those until the hype settles and the prices drop a few dollars. Once Vision releases the skinny Vivi Nova tanks, they will probably work real nice on the Twist batteries for a good portable VV vape.

Ok y'all. Tigger is gonna go relax for a bit a vape Zoe in Vivi on Woody. It's a party!

Got some vapemail today!!!! YAHOO. Not all of it, but some of it. I got my ECB order.. restocked on my faves but also got some Vanilla Gorilla, The Yummy and those are soaking into some cartos right now. I just know I'm gonna luv em. I also got some Black Pepper... YES, Black Pepper! And y'know what?? It's good! Really,, it is! I couldn't vape it all day, but boy it's an interesting change from all the fruity stuff I've been vaping lately.

Kinda sad my Vivi didn't come today,, it'll come tomorrow and we're going out of town so it's gonna sit here all weekend, waiting for me.. that and my Mom and Pop Vapor order.

For some reason this black pepper is making me crave some macaroni and cheese.. weird!

I have to go fill up a bunch of cartos for the weekend and decide what to take with me.. decisions, decisions! Oh hell, I'll just take em all!!
Vape happy guys!!

Hah! I'm the one that turned you on to the Black Pepper...yeah, it's different and I keep it in my rotation. I have it mixed with a DIY Oba Oba...which has a light vanilla flavor, and oddly it reminds me of creamy GRITS with lots of pepper! Now, I'm a southern girl, and I love "properly" cooked grits...weird to vape something that reminds me of grits and pepper...but it's a great break from the other flavors.

Great suggestions, thanks Glen! I love the Pirates of the Caribbean - I have the first 2 on DVD :)

I haven't seen any of the other suggestions yet, so I've written them down and will be searching for them - thank you!!!

I love the Pirates movies...Johnny Depp is ridiculous. He is clearly the best "character" actor that has ever walked the planet. He can morph into anything. I want to see his new vampire movie.

Hi guys! Been busy lately but wanted to check in...Got the Vivi, the flavor takes a WHILE to break in (like 2 tanks! Big Tanks!). It is also HEAVY and to me a little big and unbalanced on a regular size batt..."feels" more balanced on my 18650 ego mod. The vapor is good, but I am still not sure I am getting as good a flavor as I get on Stardust, to be honest.

Phoenix XL works fantastic, loads of vapor in a small/cheap clearo...some of the flavors are a little harsh. I am using the LR. Also one of them dumps impossibly. I have given up on that one, but they are 5 for $11 so no great loss.

Phoenix tank is awesome, no leaking, the draw is not as light as I prefer but I like an easy draw. you have to kind of nurse the draw patiently to get the best vape. Very smooth flavor, but sometimes not as much TH as I would like. I wonder if it would be better on a VV device. I use ego batts.

I am ordering the Ego Twist as soon as it comes out in 1000 mah (supposedly next week). I like the performance of Joyetech batteries and this is supposed to be one of the most compact VV's out there, with Joyetech quality...I'll let you know how it goes!

That's all from the latest purchases...I will tell you I am absolutely in LOVE with Manna from EC Blends...really tastes like apple pie with french vanilla ice cream. All the flavors come through as if you were eating it for real...very nice. Also loving the Vanilla Gorilla for a light, easy vape.

OH! One thing I DO notice using ViVi's, Phoenix XL's and Phoenix tanks is I feel like I am getting a LOT more nic from the same amount of vaping...maybe ALL that vapor gives you a lot more nic. Has anyone else noticed this?

Also, I ordered 3 more Cryptonite 8's, 2 are great, one has a burned taste I can't solve...and they are know to leak. So I probably won't order them again when the Stardust, Vivi and Phoenix seem to be a lot more reliable. It is a shame because they look AWESOME. But it comes down to the vape, you know?

I've noticed that with moving to each succession of systems. Moving from the eGo-C atty/tank to the Stardusts, and then from the Stardusts to the Vivi. I'm going to have to check out the Phoenix tanks, thanks for the information! :D

Hi y'all Hi Tina..Don't think we've met yet?! Nice to meet cha!

...EVERYTHING always comes down to vape!!! The way you guys keep talkin about the ViVi I might have to rush out an grab one...huummm my local store has some maybe I'll have to take a trip to the coast tomorrow...After I place my order with DeeJ tonight!! Don't know what all I'm grabbing yet but I'll let you know. But some interesting ones caught my attention...Liquid Amber and Sweet Juicy Drops...some champages of course and i'm not sure what else yet.

My youngest is making dinner tonight so I've got some time...we are even getting lemon bars for dessert...whoo hooo!!!

I have a stardust and I'm still not very excited about it. I had to use it a lot today because my preferred setup just wasn't workin out right and I had a long drive at lunch..:p..see told you I tank when I drive long distances!!!! and it was OK..it got the job done but I wasn't in love...even at low voltage. Sorry gals no matter how much I love yall I just can't take the Stardust trip with ya! But hopefully I can get aboard the ViVi train!!!

I had one of my fav 306s blow on me today since then I can find an atty that i'm happy with so I threw my DCT with single coil carto and of course sportin one of my trippy's and that had a weird taste once I changed out the carto VAPEMAGIC!!! Yea...Now all I'm wondering is why are there so few glass in a bottle of wine...
