chrisss you won`t go wrong with this. www.sandsmods.com/grumpys-hooch/I love it, shipping is expensive, but worth it. They do sampler packs of tobacco flavours, check out the site. Sorry I can`t offer you a sample, down to my last 2mls. (will re-order end JAN) Call me impulsive but after following your link I've just gone and ordered a sampler pack. I picked Hooch, the nut one and and OLD 4. I couldn't help it the descriptions were so seductive  Thanks for the tip  |

hi I was just wondering how many ML's people vap a month. I havent really counted up to now but might well do. costing me a lot lol What are you doing that it's costing you a lot? Vaping is cheaper than smoking for me. I don't think the amount you vape will affect it much, probably more to do with how much you spend on liquids and/or mods. |

Hi milomonkey I've tried quite a few of their tobacco flavours. The ones I really like are USA Mix, RY4 and T Blend. The USA Mix is kind of like Marborough Lights, RY4 is a tobacco flavour with a hint of caramel and T Blend is turkish tobacco flavour. It doesn't help that none of their silver label juices have any description to tell you what to expect but they're cheap enough to try out the 10ml ones to see for yourself. Good luck. |

The great advantage over a mod is you can show a great big metal tube to your friends and make smoke come out of it.
I don't know how anyone can fail to be impressed by this.
You can also get into endless arguments about how your Provari is better than everything else which I think is really good.
Oh yeah, and they take big batteries. And cost more. Mods are totally out there in their fabness.

We all seem to get a bit obsessive about converting people sometimes. Kind of like the jehovahs witnesses of nicotine. I've started quite a few people, but I think all of them have gone back to cigs (totally or partially), mainly because of the faffing about. They don't want to fill, coil, and buy shiny stuff. They just want to pop into a shop and get a simple nic fix. If cig a likes were any good they'd work miracles, but they don't and to get a decent vape you have to faff. That's so true. Even now I make comments on forums and people tell me well make better wicks and learn to recoil I couldn't give a f*** about any of that. New heads I can get for six quid which last me a month. But I was ready to quit cigs when I started vaping and have had no inclination at all to have a cig since. When people are ready they'll do it. Forcing it on them will make them hate the very idea of it. |

You've done what you can. If he liked it from the start you wouldn't have to 'do' anything beyond that. He probably isn't ready to quit cigs. Leave him to it.
If he decided later to take another look at e cigs you will be the one he talks to. Until then, don't sweat it. You can sometimes turn people right off it by trying to convince them it's what they want or need.

I've never had vapor's tongue. Six weeks in so far. I haven't had the coughing fits to clear the system either. I also haven't had any vague urge for a cig that a lot of people seem to have. I'm proper smug, me. Except I had massive panic attacks after three weeks which I think were due to missing the 'other' stuff in cigs that weren't nicotine. Let's just say I felt less smug during those two weeks of hell. Still haven't touched a cig from day one of vaping though. Don't worry about it Clive mate, it will come back. I've read loads of these stories and the menthol trick works for most people or just mixing flavours instead of sticking to one. Food also seems to work (eat something then vape). I'm sure you'll get it sorted |

I've had JJ spearmint and chocolate steeping for a couple of weeks now so decided to try the chocolate. It didn't really taste like chocolate apart from the merest hint of something that may or may not be chocolate. I tried the spearmint and it was okayish but kind of vague. The mint 'hit' was there but the spearmint taste was very subtle. So, I decided to mix the two together to see if I could rescue the situation. The result was a minty taste with a very subtle hint of spearmint and something that didn't taste like chocolate but had a mere hint of something that may or may not be chocolate  I don't think I'll be ordering those two again  |

Have looked at 2 vendors that sell these, 1 is saying...with removable drip tip ....2 is saying non removable drip tip. Do the genuine ones come with this variation or are the non removable ones clones? I am confused  I have one of these and just bought a few more the V2 of the Mini Protank 2 definitely has removable drip tips. I buy them from myepack, the best price I've seen for them. Here's a direct link to the one with the removable drip tip. They are fantastic by the way if you haven't tried them yet Mini Protank 2 V2 |

I think they get a lot of business because it's so cheap to try out their range and two of my all time favourites come from them (Black Gold and Caramel Blend).
I go to a lot of the popular sites and look at their ranges and if I want to try out 5 of their flavours I'm looking at between 30 and 40 quid that's just for 10 ml 'samples'.
That's a lot of money to spend just to get a taste of their range and you're talking about paying that again for most sites you go to.
If they did 5ml samples I'd give them all a shot. It's their loss, I spend a LOT of money on juices I've tried and decided I like.

EVOD's are great to start with but I moved on to mini protank 2 which to me at least is a million times better. They're glass too, so you can put any liquid in them without cracking the tank. If you get the V2 version you get a removable drip tip as well. Might be worth a look for you. Mini Protank 2 V2 |

Thanks dinamic22 but I'm the same as Tom I like a bit of flavour I just don't like too many sweet ones. Tom I just realised T Blend, USA Dark Mix and Desert are all on myepack lol. Oh well, another order for them coming up then  |

A good compromise as well is Black and Gold and Caramel Blend from Joose Juice. They're both really good but need a couple of weeks steeping. Also, they both taste 'odd' in EVODs but heavenly in Mini Protank 2. I think they really need the glass! lol tried Black and Gold tonight, and in my Protank mini and am really impressed. This the 2nd best flavour I like so far and it might make number 1. A nice dry taste, and I love that edge of honey. Have'nt tried it in my Evod yet. Not tried the Caramel yet, it needs another week to steep, but looking forward to it now. Glass does seem to make a difference, flavour seems to be that bit clearer. I managed to lose the base on my mini protank 2 today down the bloody plughole lol. I went back to the EVODs and it's such a massive step backwards. It was okay but nowhere near the same. Ash at myepack is sending me a new base from one he has that doesn't work. I'm buying another couple anyway, well my OH is because I'm so upset at no mini protank. Black and Gold is a lifer for me, so is USA Mix. I haven't tried USA Red Mix where did you find that one? |

I'll look both of those up, thanks. I find myself feeling sick if I try too many sweet flavours. Yes, I know what you mean. I've only been vaping for about 5 weeks, so still trying lots of flavours. I'm not keen on fruit, and the sweet ones get quite sickly after an hour or so of them. So its tobacco ones I'll be concentrating on. Cloud9Vaping look to have an interesting one called Camel or Desert. Think I'll order some and see how it goes. Hope the T-Blend and Desert work out for you A good compromise as well is Black and Gold and Caramel Blend from Joose Juice. They're both really good but need a couple of weeks steeping. Also, they both taste 'odd' in EVODs but heavenly in Mini Protank 2. I think they really need the glass! |
