i hate buying big business ecigs but I can't find a e-liquid that taste as good as vuse e-cig or the new vuse vibe!! Anyone know of a brand of tobacco flavor e-liquid that tastes as good as vuse?? The only thing good about vuse vibe is that they are easy to jailbrake n refill with any eliquid you like n poof you have a digital vape!! lol

I like the tobacco line at Mister E Liquid. It's not the cheapest juice you can get but it's not horribly expensive either. I have a Vaporesso Aurora that only does low Wattage vaping on a ceramic coil and I put 33%VG 18 mgs nic in it from MEL, works great.
Welcome aboard ecf, WOLF69.
Vanval makes one called the Father Load that I love it is one of my daily vapes. That is I have one tank that I only put Father Load in. I like the VanVal.com sampler as you pick what you want to try.

Welcome @WOLF69
Here lies a well-known phenomenon. People who take up vaping with a simple starter device get used to the taste and then everything else seems no good. It also happens with cigarettes, which is why when you get a new brand it takes a while to 'accept' the taste.
Speaking personally, I wasted hundreds of dollars chasing the flavor of my first e-cigarette and never replicated it until 2 years later, by chance. Curiously, the first RY4 liquid I truly enjoyed was taken off sale and I found that one flavor again only last month - 4 years after thinking it was unique.
There are not that many unique recipes, but the community doesn't try (generally) to clone cig-a-like flavors, whereas as the top fruity vape might be cloned once a week.
Sadly, Vuse is Vuse. It crawls along the floor of overpriced, under-performing, ineffective junk products and I feel sorry for anybody suckered into believing it's worth the money.
Only yesterday, we were discussing a product that will cost it's users $2,600 a year to vape.
That's nothing - the product I bought to start would have been nearer $4,000 a year and it didn't even work. Shameful products, shameful marketing. Only the $$$ wins here, not the consumer.
Throw it away, start again. Why? because even if you find a nice liquid and refill those carts you are gonna need spares and replacements and wham! before you know it you've spent $800 more than necessary on a tobacco company sham.
(Like I did....)

Do remember Vuse cartridges (don't know about the Vibe, never had it) contain 48 mg/ml juice. Worked great to get me off smokes when I started because was so much nic. When I switched to a "regular" vape (Ego clearo to start out) I went straight to a 24 mg juice and found it was fine as even in the crappy clearo I got more vapor than from a Vuse cartridge.
Yeah, honestly, I'd get a couple of Innokin iTazte VV 4's and a Mini Nautilus with 1.8 Ohm atomizers to start off on.
In fact, grab one of these Ego Travel Packs:
...and grab two Innokin Itaste VV 4.0's:
...and a Mini Nautilus with 1.8 Ohm atomizers:
Put those, your USB cable for charging, an extra atomizer, and a small bottle of juice in the travel pack.
I think the vuse does have 48 mg/ml nicotine, and the site advertises it as "derived from the tobacco plant" which means you are using nicotine salts, not just plain nicotine. I think. You might consider looking at Nicotine salt juices, or even just buying some unflavored nicotine to kick whatever juice you buy up a notch... Say, buy 24 nicotine then add nic salts (there are juice caluculators and stuff in the DIY section) in order to get something more like you are used to. I have purchased from Nude Nicotine, and find the stuff arrives quickly and they have lots of options as far as "smooth" or "harsh" if you like a harsher peppery nic taste, you can probably find a flavor you can tolerate, then kick it up a notch as you need to? Lots of B&M here will let you taste flavors, to get a sense. I don't like tobacco flavors so I can't really help there, but there are some good brands.
Sure, you can buy something better than vuse, as far as usability and durability but if for now, you are mostly happy with what you have, that's fine too. I mean, use what works. But, coils are pretty inexpensive at the current moment in time, and you can certainly learn to build your own coils down the line if you *want* to, that's cheaper still. I would suggest at least *tryng* a refillable atomizer/tank, you can get ones that are almost as light and discreet as using a vuse.... And it might be worth trying something, at least going to a local vape shop and having them show you all the options (make sure to let them know you want MTL and a small discreet cigalike (almost but not quite you will have a fire button and it wil be less flimsy) that you might enjoy.
Good luck!

"Derived from tobacco plant" is all e-liquids. Tobacco companies like to spout this nonsense to seem superior. Nicotine only comes from tobacco (at the moment) although synthetic products are on their way. Salts are something new - Juul uses salts to justify the $5-6 charge per 1ml of their product.
$5-6 makes me 100-150ml of regular e-liquid. That's why Juul are also in the dungeon of utter shamefulness.
Salt e-liquid is available in the UK. 70c per ml, so yeh, 10 times cheaper than Juul. It's good stuff.
Actually, I despair. Some people (ugly, greedy businesses) want to make e-liquid like printer liquid because it's contained in a $0.20 piece of technology. Basically, as a society we are all patsies.
It will never change, not now companies like Juul and Vuse can control the internet and burrow into the minds of people. There are 'media' companies out there spending their entire time (and that of their large workforce) bending the internet to whoever pays them the most. That's how Vaporfi can keep up with big tobacco in the race to bad products and insane prices.

Funny you should mention printer ink. It's an apt comparison. I remember buying a Lexmark printer years and years ago. The thing was something like $49.99 and came with two ink cartridges, one color and one B&W. They sold the cartridges for something like $27.99 and they were on the shelf right next to the printer. I laughed about it, and just bought a new printer instead of the carts when I ran out of ink. Eventually I found refillable ones that worked. Liquid prices are getting better for me as I find better suppliers. I buy liquid almost exclusively online. In my area the brick and mortar local vape shops are killing themselves and only last as long as they can squeeze cash out of people who don't know any better-and that's for liquid and equipment. There are exceptions here and there but vape shops keep popping up and then going out of business because no one will pay $35 for a 30 ml bottle of super dooper wonderful fantastic e-juice that you just have to try. and no one will pay $150 for a kit that you can buy for $45 online with $5 in shipping costs.
Printers are now coming on the market prefilled with enough ink to last 3 years, but I think the price on the printer is much higher. I still wish I had one, if only for the various tragedies that have occurred (at home and at work) with cartriges. One time the secretary at my work was quite convinced she could fix my problem by shaking my new ink cartridge and it exploded.... I was cleaning ink off everything, including ceiling tiles for like, a week. That's why cartriges suck, too. They're.... designed to fail. I don't want anything with a cartrige because it's one thing to buy cheap liquids and they leak a bit, but the problem can be fixed (usually) by the user without much harm. These cartridge products are designed to last a specified period of time, and then the user has to either replace the entire object, or purchase (the new, upgraded, more expensive product) without knowing that there are other options out there.... I don't like Ecigs that suck, I do like having a few B&M shops around for new vapers, so I support them, to a fair extent, though I don't buy mods from them due to insane markups. Also, the older the user, the more likely it is that they will seek out information online, I think a lot of the mod purchases are either new users (fair enough) or impulse buys from younger users who are hard-selled the next "greatest" product. I'm okay with that.
Okay, that really annoys me that cig makers are touting regular e-juice as "essentially the same form as tobacco!" and it's not nic salts. I guess they're using that to spray all over their tobacco products, much as Starbucks is so "great" and beloved by some people because the coffee's brewed to insane strength levels. I'd rather brew my own and drink 3 cups, not one. Similar analogy I guess....
