Wannna Vape - but what ?

The flavour I find better, but the hit is more on the Boge LR, as you would probably expect.

I'll have to try these at some point although I find the flavour is good enough for me with the LR Boges. Perhaps that's partly the juice, I reckon 666 has a lot of flavour anyway.

As a general rule, I find the lower resistance you go with cartomisers, the less flavour you get and the more throat hit (there has to be a compromise somewhere).

I guess you're right, it's just finding what suits really.

Glad to hear it's going well - I always wonder, when you don't hear from someone for a while, whether it's worked out for them. But, I think you found the right mark from the off.

Yeah, I think I initially found it a lot easier than some and I guess that hasn't changed. When I started vaping it was very new and felt slightly strange as I was getting used to it all whilst kicking the old habits. Now I don't even think about it much, I just enjoy the vaping and frankly the fact I'm no longer poisoning myself! No longer feeling bad (physically and mentally) about smoking is marvellous I have to say

How long do the Riva batteries last?..........just wondering when i will need to purchase a new one?

Mine have been going for over 2 months now and they're still working well. I just reckon I'd better have a spare around just in case they start to go. I guess it depends on usage but I seem to recall reading somewhere that 3 months was about average - can anyone confirm that?

[VE Jason]

I advise people to budget for a new battery every couple of months. The problem is that for some reason when they die, they both seem to die within a short space of time for some reason.

Obviously, the lifespan of an individual battery depends on the number of charge cycles it goes through and how much 'button action' it gets.

Using LR will also decrease the lifespan, but I've found that with 2ohm cartomisers and above, this is less noticeable.

The Joye batteries come with a 3 month warranty and the Riva batteries 2 months (again subject to what they have been used for).

Thanks for all the replies and making me feel so welcome.

Just been out for a smoke (roll-up - Golden virginia) but hope those days are soon behind me.

Taking Jason's advice , and may well go for an Echo.

What mg Nicotine should I go for ?
I normally smoke about 5 rollups a day - so do I go for 10mg ?

Should I initially go for Golden Bulgaria ?

[Chrissie]

Rav, as you only smoke 5 roll ups a day, a lowish nic juice should be OK for you

As for flavour, it really is so hard to recommend one as it's down to personal taste.

[Perpetua]

I rather liked the sample of 666 Rav that I tried from Jason, to me it was quite ciggy like . . . but as Chris says it is so very difficult to recommend a juice flavour, as what is nectar to one vaper, isn't to another.

If your budget allows, I'd maybe get a couple to try.

[rog]

Rav I'd suggest trying a few juices, as others have said it is all down to personal taste.

I'd recommend Grizwald's Pick 'n' Mix or Mega Mix but one issue there is if you're after a low nic you might find the nic level is too high - Jason am I right in thinking these only come in medium (20mg) or can you do lower nic?

Perhaps Jason could suggest some alternatives if that's the case?

Also remember you won't find anything that tastes exactly like Golden Virginia, at least not in my experience and I've tried a few. To be honest I'd try as many as your budget allows until you find something that suits you ... and remember that your tastes may well change so what suits initially might not be so good a few months down the line. At least that seems to be most people's experience although I'm still happy with one of the first juices I tasted, 666, and don't vape much else at the moment.

If I remember right, if you do decide to order and of Grizwalds juice from vape escape, if you put a little note in the notes section when u place the order they can be mixed to a different strength for you. I would double check that before orderign though

Most suppliers seem to do pick and mix, so choose a selection of smaller bottles to try to find one you like.

Also check the suppliers section of the forum for lots of discounts and links to sellers

Hi Rav

I received the message you left last night and will give you a call later today, as requested.

I would agree that a lower strength sounds suitable because of the amount of roll ups you use each day and as Rog says, I would try a few flavours in small quantities rather than order a large bottle of anything and then not like it.

Grizwald's Pick 'n' Mix is probably ideal for this and Jemima is correct that we will mix it at a lower strength if requested.

Hope that helps and thanks to everyone for giving you the information.

I'll give you a call later.

Hi Jason just to make sure i read this right... i can get Grizwalds pick 'n' mix to a lower strength if i request it? also is the Grizwald's Pick 'n' Mix sunday special price every week or just last week ?

[VE Jason]

Hi Tye

We will do the Pick 'n' Mix in 10mg if you request it at checkout (or just let me know). We don't put that on the site because it would be a bit hard to manage if every Pick 'n' Mix order was for a different strength.

The Pick 'n' Mix Special was a one off, but there is always at least 1 30ml Special every weekend.

[Gordy]

cheers Jas, shame about the pick n mix special but great news that you do a 10mg tho.... just have to make my mind up which to pick!!!

[Jemima]

Yeah I found that to be the hard part too Tye lol

[rav]

Bought the Echo , and the 10mg Pic'n Mix - looking forward to receiving the goodies - hopefully before the weekend

Thanks for ringing Jason , and I'm hoping this really works out.

[Chrissie]

Also hoping it will work out for you Rav

I reckon you should easily get it before the weekend
