Review: Monkey Fart from JJVapes

Back in January, I told you that I'd be going in a more specific direction going forward.  eLiquids and "cigarette shaped devices" would become the focus of this blog.  That doesn't mean I won't be reviewing other devices too, it just means that eLiquids would be taking a more active role in this blogs future...

So today, in the pursuit of that new direction, I bring you "Monkey Fart" from JJVapes!

Review: 4 eLiquids from Mister E-Liquid

So today I'm going to be reviewing 4 eLiquids from Mister E-Liquid!  If you've read my eLiquid reviews before, you'll know that I apply a no-nonsense, no butt-kissing approach to my reviews.  It's either made correctly or it gets a bad review!

Won't you join me?  Who knows... Maybe Mr. E. is on to something great!?

Upcoming Reviews for August 2013

Being the "log watcher" that I am, I try and determine what people are looking for and I see if it fits into the category of something I would personally want to have or use.

One of the things I see, are hundreds of searches for "Tobacco Flavored" eLiquids.

If you've read my original review about Hangsen eLiquids, I sampled mostly non-tobacco related flavors.  In this upcoming review, I'm going to review these 6 Tobacco Flavors:

Arabic Tobacco Flavor
Cigar Flavor
Cubana
Eastern Tobacco Flavor
Indian Tobacco Flavor
Marlboro Red Flavor

Update 8/26/2013: The Hangsen Tobacco review is UP!  Go get it HERE...

And as a bonus and something I'm sure you've come across in your eLiquid travels....

Vitamin A Flavor eLiquid

Update 8/28/2013: The Vitamin A flavored eLiquid review is UP!, Go get it HERE...

I have no idea what this is.  I can't find any reviews on it anywhere, so I figured I'd be the first.  Keep your eyes peeled...

Hangsen has many flavors to choose from (more than 200 from what I understand), but since money doesn't grow on trees, I have to be somewhat selective when I bring in new devices and eLiquids.

Update 8/16/2013: After months of teasing you, the review for the Sigelei #19 review is being put together as we speak.  Keep your eyes peeled for a revealing and insightful review on Sigelei and this Mechanical Mod!

Update 8/23/2013: The Sigelei #19 Review is UP!  Go get it HERE...

Also (and I eluded to this in a recent post), Tasty Vapers! is now averaging in excess of 11,000 Unique visitors every month and with that kind of readership comes opportunities for sponsorship and other relationships to be formed with makers and sellers alike.  And while I'll never take a penny to review a product, I expect to see more products made available to me at no cost.  Free is always nice, but good reviews only come from honesty, not from money.

As always, thank  you for your support, thank you for your comments and thank you for Liking it, Tweeting it, Sharing it, +1ing it and telling your dog about it, etc...  ;)

Without the support of your dog (errr, you), we wouldn't be where we are today!  ;)

Tasty Vapers! - 6 Month Celebration

6 Months ago I was smokin' like a chimney and absolutely oblivious.  I couldn't have cared less if I got cancer, emphysema or any other health related problems or diseases associated with Analog Cigarettes.

As of yesterday, I've been cigarette free for 180 days and I've avoided more than 7,200 stinkies! I don't know about you, but I think that's quite the accomplishment, especially because I'm not even aware that I did anything.

This Blog was inspired by the idea that other smokers needed an outlet to obtain and attain knowledge about both the pros and cons to eLiquids and Vapor producing devices.  And thanks to readers like you, you've actually made what I have to say relevant.  People not only appreciate honesty, they demand it!  You have my solid promise to never take a single penny, pence or fen from any company whose product (or products) that I don't absolutely love!  And if you've been reading, you know there aren't too many of those!  ;)

This Blog now reaches more than 10,000 readers every single month and as a thank you to each and every one of you, I have eJuice producers and hardware makers and sellers communicating with me and all I can say, is get ready to enjoy some savings!

Hopefully by the end of this month (I did say hopefully), I'll have my very first DEAL featured right here and exclusively @ Tasty Vapers!

So keep your eyes wide open for what's sure to be some incredible deals!

And please, if you appreciate what I'm doing here, by all means, please continue to Like it, Tweet it, Share it, +1 it, tell your dog about it, Blog about it, or otherwise post about it!  I promise you that I am absolutely beside myself, just knowing how much these posts mean to you.

And if you wouldn't mind, PLEASE VOTE in my anonymous poll, it's for a really good cause!

Thank you once again, and hey, post some comments.  I get too many private comments sent to me and not enough public ones.  Consider it your way of saying thank you, but out loud.  In case you didn't know, I've enabled anonymous comments, so no account is required to post one (or two, or three)!

EmpireMods LR510 Review

When a small company from the United States puts their name on a Vaping product, it had better be good.  Trust me, you don't put your name on something unless you know that it's a winner.

So today I'll be reviewing the EmpireMods Bridge Free LR510 1.5ohm Atomizer.  Yes, that's a mouthful, but what I'm really hoping for is a mouthful of delicious, flavorful Vapor!

But allow me to tell you a little bit about my experience with them first...

Kanger ProTank Review - 2nd Followup

UPDATE: Please participate in our anonymous POLL.  It's for a really good cause!

Both of my blog entries regarding the ProTank are in the Top 5 of the all time page hits on this site.  I promised (somewhere) that I'd do a second followup and this is it!

---

I've said this before and I'll say it again, Kanger really knocked one out of the park, not so much with the ProTank itself, but with the design of their BC Atomizer (bottom coil).

To date, I can find at least 9 10 lots of devices, some made by Kanger and some not, that are designed around using the ProTank atomizers...

CE4 & CE5 - Stardust Review

UPDATE: Please participate in our anonymous POLL.  It's for a really good cause!

If you started Vaping within the past 2 years, there's a really good chance that you started out with a "Stardust" Atomizer.

I consider this my "most overdue" review, because I left these puppies back in the dust ages ago.  I left them in the dust because I could never get a CONSISTENT Vape out of them and I most certainly was never able to get ENOUGH Vapor out of them either.  However, for millions of people, these either are or were the very first Atomizing device they purchased.

Review: 6 eLiquids from Hangsen

Of all the things that I've been complimented on, my thoroughness and the ability to "tell it like it is" have been the most prominent.  I want you to understand this, before you read this review...

---

Today, I'll be reviewing 6 eLiquids from Hangsen.  Before I begin (and especially if this is your first time reading my reviews) I want you to understand my rating criteria.  Unlike some "website-magazines" that shall remain nameless, I don't require that vendors send me free stuff, so you can be sure that I'll give it to you straight...

KamryTech X10 Review

UPDATE: Please participate in our anonymous POLL.  It's for a really good cause!

Before we begin, I want to make a statement....

I am an American.  As such, I would always give a U.S.A. Made product the first chance.  As the product that I'm reviewing is a direct competitor to a product that is already made in China, I see no issue.  As with most things, "may the best man win".....

---

So today I'll be reviewing a direct competitor to the Kanger ProTank...
It's called the KamryTech X10...

Some of you might be curious as to why I would want to review this particular item.  The answer is simple.  While the ProTank is currently my favorite device, the thing that makes it my favorite has nothing to do with the design of the ProTank.  It's all about how it performs...  The thing that makes it perform, is not the body of the ProTank... It's the engine!

SmokTech Octopus Review

NOTICE: OBJECTS IN PICTURES ARE SMALLER THAN THEY APPEAR

---

So this is a review and a documentary.  It's a review, because you're going to learn a lot about the SmokTech Octopus Dripper and it's a documentary, because this is my FIRST RDA and even though I've learned a lot from using Genesis style atomizers, working with a dripper (as I'm told) is a whole new experience.

 

Kanger EVOD Review

UPDATE: Please participate in our anonymous POLL.  It's for a really good cause!

If you've been reading this Blog, you know that I'm in love with the Kanger ProTank.  Sure, it's got some really tiny issues, but they're nothing, compared to some other devices.

For the first time since I started Vaping, I've finally got something that produces excellent flavor, excellent Vapor, excellent throat hit and lasts a really, really long time between changing out atomizer heads.

But the ProTank can cost between $15 & $23 depending on where you get them from.

The reason that I wanted to test the EVOD out, is because:

36 eLiquids from NicoPure Labs (eVo)

So I came into possession of 36 eLiquids from NicoPure Labs (AKA eVo eLiquid) and I've been staring at the bag that it came in for about a month now.  I'm tired of looking at it, so I figure I have two choices...

1. I can just throw it away (which is what was suggested to me)...
2. I can start reviewing it and make a "Living Blog Entry"...

Review: 4 eLiquids from Uno Vapor

Of all the things that I've been complimented on, my thoroughness and the ability to "tell it like it is" have been the most prominent.  I want you to understand this, before you read this review...

---

Today, I'll be reviewing 4 eLiquids from Uno Vapor.  Before I begin (and especially if this is your first time reading my reviews) I want you to understand my rating criteria.  Unlike some "website-magazines" that shall remain nameless, I don't require that vendors send me free stuff, so you can be sure that I'll give it to you straight...

eLiquid: Is flavor really subjective?

According to the "experts", what do you think the "dumbest animal" on earth is?

Dog?  Nope, you can train em...
Bird?  You've heard of "bird brains"?  Nope, you can train them too...
Octopus?  Nope. Those guys are crazy smart!
Donkey?  They may be stubborn, but they're no dummies...

The answer is:

Review: 5 eLiquids from Mount Baker Vapor

If you've been Vaping for more than a few months, you've probably heard someone refer to MBV, MtBakerVapor or Mount Baker Vapor.

I've heard the name repeatedly, but I've also heard it in reference to flavors I'd never go anywhere near.  Those of you who follow me, know that I keep away from peaches and mangoes and anything "perfumey" smelling....

Upcoming Reviews for June 2013 - Update 2

So yeah, umm, June 2013 is really shaping up to be a ridiculously busy month!

Upcoming Reviews:

1. 4 eLiquids from Uno Vapor

2. 4 eLiquids from Mount Baker Vapor

3. You're not going to believe me, but I swear it's true --> 36 eLiquids from NicoPure
**I still need to check the count on that though...
***Count confirmed, only one duplicate in the bunch...
****This one may not appear until July 2013 for obvious reasons...

4. I just checked and my SM2.0 will be here TODAY!  So there's that coming up...

Update 6/14/2013 - Ok, so just so we're clear....  This RDA is narrower than a U.S. Penny. I will NOT be reviewing this right now.  It's going into my gear box and it's going to have to wait for me to get out my microscope, so that I can build it.

5. The Sigelei Mechanical Mod #19 will be up soon too...

Update 8/23/2013: If by "soon", I meant "2 months later", then it's finally UP!  LOL  Catch the Sigelei #19 Review HERE!

6. Added 6/14/2013: Since I discovered that the SM2.0 is about the size of a standard drip-tip, I'll be reviewing the SmokTech Octopus instead!  No microscope required!

Update 8/23/2013: The SmokTech Octopus Review is finally UP!

Sheesh!

If you appreciate what I'm doing here, you know what to do....
Like it, Tweet it, Share it, +1 it, tell your dog about it, etc...  ;)

Review: 3 eLiquids from Alien Visions

UPDATE: Please participate in our anonymous POLL.  It's for a really good cause!

Even with the AVE website running amuck, Alien Visions is still managing to at least get some orders out the door. ^_^

In this review, I'm hoping to find out if Boba's Bounty is a fluke, or if Alien Visions actually has what it takes to be THE go-to guys for eLiquid.  In the spirit of full disclosure, one of these eLiquids is SOLD BY AVE, not made by them.

Upcoming Reviews for June 2013 - Update

A couple of months ago, I mentioned that I was going to be doing an 18650/18350 Battery review.  Truth is, there's just too much misinformation out there regarding batteries.  Time permitting I should be able to get this one up by the end of this weekend.

Batteries being reviewed:

· Samsung ICR18650-26F (unprotected)
· Samsung ICR18650-30B (protected)
· TrustFire 18650 - 3000mAh (protected)
· EFest 18350 - 800mAh V2 (unprotected)

Update 6/8/2013 - The Battery Review is UP

Next, I'm still working on the Sigelei #19 review.  Out of the box, it leaves a little to be desired.  HOWEVER, I have a neat idea that I haven't seen anyone else try yet that MIGHT actually make this an awesome mod.  Keep your eyes peeled!

My 3 new eLiquids from Alien Visions are in the mail and on their way!  Does AVE have what it takes to make everything delicious, or is Boba's Bounty a fluke?

eLiquids being reviewed:

· Dreamberries
· Watermelon Overload
· Grape Vape

Update 6/11/2013 - The Alien Visions Review is UP

I decided that I needed an RDA (a dripping type of rebuildable atomizer) to be able to get all of the nuances of the different flavored eJuices that I'm reviewing.  I've got an SM2.0 (also referred to as an SM20) on its way from China, and I've got to tell you that I'm really looking forward to this build!  Can anything really taste any better than my Kanger Protank?  We'll just have to see!  I can confirm that it's on its way here and hopefully I'll have it in my hands by the end of this coming week!

Kanger ProTank Review - Followup

UPDATE: Please participate in our anonymous POLL.  It's for a really good cause!

So a couple of weeks ago I wrote a glorious review of the Kanger ProTank.
Today I want to do a followup review, now that I've had more time to use it.

WANTED: REALLY GOOD ELIQUIDS!

Is it really too much to ask, for a quality made eLiquid with a STRONG and PRESENT flavor?  Is it really too much to ask for an eLiquid with a GOOD and LASTING flavor?  Is it really too much to ask for an eLiquid that is CONSISTENTLY and RELIABLY made?
