Which starter kit should i choose?

[MrHyde]

The WOW cartomizers run hotter and run at a lower resistance. The Premium are the Cool Carts, which as the name implies run cooler and have a higher resistance. Personally, I enjoy the WOW carts better because I like a warmer vapor and to me, produce more vapor and throat hit (TH).

And yes, the WOWs (as Keyzy said) contain more VG in the mix.

i see. which of all the 10 flavors (between WOW and Premium) of tobacco are closest to a real tobacco taste in your opinions? i mean ill find out with the samplers, but im curious to see what you guys think.

and thank you for all your help and patience everyone

 

[MrHyde]

I'm not sure on which tastes the closest to a real tobacco cigarette, but out of the few tobacco flavors I've tried, Wowboy is my favorite.

One thing you have to realize though, is that it would be very difficult to make the same flavor you'd get out of burnt tobacco. Obviously because it is in fact, burnt. I think that after you try various flavors and find a few that you like, you'll no longer want one that tastes like tobacco.

 

[yellow]

mr hyde, which do you like best of all the flavors (fruit, chocolate, etc...)?

 

[Conard]

I think almost everyone goes for the tobacco flavors when they start.
My favorite is 555 but it doesn't taste anything like the tobacco I used to burn.
Tried all the menthol and lots of flavors people said they liked.
My go to vape is the Smilen Special, a mint with a touch of chocolate. I also like the Wowboy as it's more chocolate with a touch of mint.
As you progress it seems your taste changes in flavors and what was good week one is at the bottom of the list on week four.

ok, so ill give the other samplers a shot next order i guess....as far as cartomizers go, are the vapor4life's prices and quality the top of the heap?

 

[keyzygirl]

They are the best place to get cartos.Best selection and quality.They are also the only place Ive ever seen sampler packs.I like the coffee sampler the best.For some reason the coffee flavors got me over the cigs.

 

[yellow]

good to know, ill try the coffee sampler next. best cartomizers too huh? well now that im a V4L vapor king owner (though i obviously havent gotten it yet since i just ordered it an hour ago), and this is the V4L subforum, can i ask a question to people who have tried many of the other 2 piece cartomizer e-cig brands like greenhouse,bloog, etc....?

is V4L really the best 2 piece e-cig? maybe its a silly question considering IT IS the v4l subforum, but i feel OK in asking now that i made up my mind, purchased my kit, and hearing from everyone that is so helpful

 

[Conard]

I would say that V4L is the top of the heap in stock equipment, cartomizers and juice flavors.
One of the things I considered before I made my jump here was their popularity. You can see that by going to the top of this page and clicking on the Forum link by the "home" symbol. Once on the main forum page scroll down to the list of forum suppliers and see how many people are reading each of the supplier forums. The V4L forum always has the most viewers and active posts.
You made a very good choice. The next thing you will find out is their customer service is also the top of the heap. Great staff, great products and the people on this forum are the best I've been around in 15 years of forum use.

 

[yellow]

funny you mentioned the forum suppliers, because thats exactly what prompted my question. i saw so many suppliers and different websites that i just had to ask if it really is the best choice.

Hi Yellow! Glad you found V4L's Forum and "graduated" from the New Members Forum.

Since you said you only smoke 3 cigis a day, ultralite, totally filtered, you may be not have deadened taste-buds. Flavours may be much more discernible for you on a clean palate.

The "Tobacco Shop" samplers are quite nice, whether Wow or CoolCarts. One of my favs is Dunhall; it captures the taste of a Dunhill blue label fairly well. There's one called "Hilton" (believe it's in CoolCarts) that is a very crisp tasting tobacco. Not sure how to describe it other than "crisp" like autumn leaves & clean air "crisp" LOL

Have to give an emphatic nod to the "Coffee Shop" sampler. And, I'm a hard-core coffee drinker; neat, double scoop type, by the pot. V4L's flavours are very mellow, creamy & sweet; almost dessert-like for me.

Oh! almost forgot... V4L ships very discrete packages via USPS Priority Mail. Nothing flamboyant or embarrassing. A mailroom clerk, a resident manager, a doorman, a snoopy neighbour would not bat an eye... neither would a postman for that matter.

And, one more thing... SnowDragon has a well done YouTube vid on refilling. It is so very, very easy!

Oh, and another thing... Do not rule out flavoured cartos & juices. I received a "Fruit Punch" sample that was quite nice. I also tried the "Candy Shop" sampler and fell in love with the Black Licorice (enough so to order a 30-mL bottle).

Last thing for this evening... Nic is not the demon child. ;-)

 

[yellow]

cool, thanks. ill definitely give the other flavors a shot.

I can confidently said you chose right in V4L. Not only are their products amazing, but their customer service is absolutely unrivaled! They are amazing! And this group of fine people are amazing! You cant go wrong with us! If you ever have a problem we will help you and make you smile!

 

[Maxwell_Edison]

Looking back, I'd have been better of buying the $65 XL Manual starter Kit. The XL batteries are the bomb.

 

[gowsgirl]

I also agree that V4L is THE best in customer service, shipping, and flavors!! My aunt and I are in love with V4L We are huge advocates to everyone around us to switch to vaping AND do it with V4L!!!

This.

 

[yellow]

glad to hear the feedback. cant wait to try it out

 

[yellow]

when i get my V4L stuff, im assuming i have to do a preliminary charge for the batteries. how long should i charge them for the first time (they are shorty's, i guess the small 2 hour ones)?

also how long does the battery last, that is how many recharges can you get out of a battery?

 

[Clover~]

actually they usually come partially or fully charged so you dont have to charge them first! you can just enjoy them And generally batteries should last at least 6 months or like what was it, guys, like 200 some charges? it can vary with usage and care. Some people have batts that have lasted over a year.

wade: thanks, i learned something new here. i've never noticed the airflow *and* never exceed the cutoff times but i imagine others take longer drags. i guess it depends on how you use it. good to know.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For a specific example...the generics are a 5 second cuttoff. Our V4L's are 10-13 second and the Diamond or Stealth Series are even longer at 20 second.
