Hi Light! It's great that you're happy with your kGo - they really are great little devices! I love that we're getting more DIYers on the thread - I'd like to try my hand at it one of these days, but for now I'm pretty happy with the flavor wizard on ECB!

Well..don't give me too much credit. The 10 bottles of DIY are not made...they need to be made yet. I still don't have my heart into DIY especially with so many good juices out there pre made. But I may just give it another try. I make a pretty good cream de menthe. Plus I'm not using nicotine for DIY so it makes it much easier. And I don't get all techy..5 mil bottles, 1/4 flavor and the rest VG or if I add menthol..I add 1/4 menthol. Eventually I'll move up to 10 mil bottles once I really know what I'm doing.

Aww Glen - I hadn't thought about it, but you may just be our token male right now - I'll see if I can get a few more to join us & keep you safe from estrogen overload
Post pictures of the Stanley, and tell us what you'll be stocking up on

Well, if I have to be the token male, I guess I can man-up and take one for the team. Besides, y'all give me good advice and someone to blame when I spend too much money.

I think finding some decent cartos will be my next adventure. Any recommends for both my 3.3v eGo batts and my new mod coming this week? Also, would you recommend getting a tip for cartos?

Welcome aboard light.. even though you aren't a shopaholic or juiceaholic,, I'm pretty sure you qualify as a vapaholic so you'll fit right in.

Glen,, wanna see pics of your new box.. I've looked at them but geez, if I drag that out my hubby's REALLY gonna think I have a problem!! He'd probably be happy to get all my stuff off the kitchen counter, however. Keeping stuff organized is a bear,, and I'm not good at keeping track of which carto is what ohms,,, what's for the KGO and what's for the LT.. I gotta get better at that. Sorry that you're the token male around here.. but we need you so don't go anywhere!! Somebody has to be the voice of reason around here.. I'm not sure you qualify for that though, cuz you shop as much as we do!

So hubby is shopping for a new phone... he's driving me crazy!! He has a Samsung Galaxy, I have an Iphone. I keep telling him... just get an Iphone. But he's so used to the Android thing,, gawd, I thought I was a bad shopper!! He's every bit as bad as I am! We've been to Walmart twice today looking at phones. Heaven help me!!

JUST GET AN IPHONE.......everything else is OBSOLETE!!!!!!! We are BORG!

I might get surprised.. what's better? Getting vapemail, or being surprised by vapemail you forgot was coming?

Definitely being surprised!!!

Hey, I have to tell you what I discovered... I got an adapter so I could use the stardusts on my LT.. I cranked it DOWN to about 3.2 and holy cow!! The flavor is back!! A DCT at about 4.7 is great,,, a Stardust at 3.2 is also great.. nothing like a vv!

Hmmm going to have to try dialing it down. I picked up a stardust a couple weeks ago at my local store and just tried it the other day and wasn't impressed. Thanks for the tip!

Welcome Cookster! I hope you're male because I could use a bit more testosterone in this thread, but if not, welcome anyway!

Speaking of testosterone (how's that for a segue?), I got my Stanley organizer today. Big, grey and yellow, tough, and lots of room to keep all my vape supplies. Too much room in fact, so now I have to buy MORE STUFF to make it look less empty!

Awesome excuse...I'm going to try it!

I'll take pics when the rest of my supplies arrive this week so you can get an idea of the storage room. This thing is massive, but it should fit nicely under the bed and out of the way. As for being the voice of reason, you may be right. Besides, I wouldn't want to upset the economic growth this thread is providing to our country right now.

 

[Mythus2012]

I think I have another confirmation that I too am a vapoholic. I no longer make faces when I accidentally taste juice. I don't qualify as a shopoholic. I'm happy with my KGO and I'm not looking for anything else. I'm not really a juiceaholic either. I have 10 bottles plus quite a bit of DIY and I think that's more than enough for me. BUT I sure do enjoy vaping!

Welcome, welcome!!! Glad you are here! You and Cookster are going to HAVE to tell us all about DIY!!!

 

[BuGlen]

Awesome excuse...I'm going to try it!

I know, right?!?!? Like anyone in this thread needs an excuse beyond simply celebrating a healthier lifestyle. Just keep saying to yourself: It's been X days without stinkies, and I really deserve this new toy! Works for me.

 

[Mythus2012]

HEY....Where did my "LIKE" button/link go???

I can't "Like" anything right now....unless that's my capricorn side shining through?

Didn't they tell you? You only get so many likes per day / week. They had to be rationed because everyone started sounding like a teenager in the '80s. Like, I just got this awesome cassette tape of, like, the latest Ratt album, and it's like, ya know, awesome!

Funny, I think I'm just about the only one who doesn't remember the exact day I quit. I know it was mid-February sometime...but that's about it. I keep thinking I should go back and look at my bank account to when I bought my kit but I keep forgetting...

Or I could just tell hubby that we need to go to Bass Pro....then I have full run of the store....

For your 3.3s, you may want to look at LR cartos - dual or single coils. I like the Boge 2.0s on my kGo, and SmokTech 1.7 single coils - but, the kgo is 3.7, so it may be different - I don't think I have any 1.7s right now, but I do have a boge 2.0 that's I filled for Iron Monkey to sample Dragon's Tear - I just popped it on the LT & dropped my voltage to 3.3 - it's a little cool for me, but has great vapor production at 50/50 and decent flavor. I've been using a LR DCT (smokTech), dropped it down to 3.3, again, a little cool for my tastes, but the vapor production is great, and the flavor is decent but muted compared to even 3.7.

From Luvinit's post, it sounds like you may want to try a stardust/vision at 3.3 (trying now....) Not bad! Better flavor than the Boge or ST I just tried, but the vapor production is reduced lol I think you're going to wind up with some trade offs when your V is only 3.3.

Nope, Glen probably doesn't qualify as the voice of reason considering he just bought a VV too
I haven't really figured out how to keep it all sorted either - I know with atty is which, and if I pop a carto on a device and take a puff, I can generally figure out the flavor, but I'm serious considering buying some little colored round stickers, using a specific color for each resistance, and coding the bottles with numbers (corresponding # goes on little round sticker) - may or may not work!

Like, what are you talking about? Like, I still, like talk like that....like totally radical!

LOL!! I think vapaholics could keep the economy stable in their sleep. We do love our vape gear!

Mine is gone to!!! I'm afraid I might have withdrawals - I wanted to like every post on this page!

Like, um, you can't see me right now, but I'm totally like sticking out my tongue & like blowing raspberries at you right now!

Don't look Mythus - if you see just how much you've spend on vaping since then you might get a little seasick!
lol Bass Pro or Home Depot/Lowe's - any of those will guaranty the other half actually ENCOURAGING my spending!

 

[Mythus2012]

For your 3.3s, you may want to look at LR cartos - dual or single coils. I like the Boge 2.0s on my kGo, and SmokTech 1.7 single coils - but, the kgo is 3.7, so it may be different -

Not sure if a dual coil will work that well unless you're thinking of clipping the top coil. The LT even has a hard time pushing dual coils (compared to the Provari anyway). My local store guy (he has a thread on the forum New So. CA Store, E-Cig City) allowed me to vape the difference and man oh man....the LT just can't match on the dual coil. I'm by no means and expert, I just know what I like. I would suggest that if you get a dual coil for your Kgo you might want to try clipping to the top coil and see if you like that better that using both.

 

[luvinit]

OMG... please tell me we didn't really talk like that!! Like, really dude. I didn't sound like that! I use sharpies to write on my cartos.. yeah, it can wipe off if you have leaks but a silver sharpie for the black cartos and a black one for the stainless cartos.. it works really well for me. The little colored stickers don't work for me,, I have too many going at the same time and there aren't enough colors in the rainbow! And wouldn't a sticker burn on a carto,, they get kinda hot, don't they?

 

[CheekyMonkey]

OOOH! My likes are back!!!! Maybe we just need to refresh the page or leave & come back to it?

Clipping the top coil is a great idea! I may have to try that with one of my LR DCs & see what happens!

I have a whole box of tank cartos that are dual coil.. don't like em on the KGO and can't use em on the LT.. that's a great idea to cut the top coil!! Wow, you just saved me a bunch of money I thought I wasted on those cartos!
