Now that I'm Back, Here we go!!! Guess what on the Horizon?

Ok, I got my new Zeus Battery from Vapor4Life and all is well in the world again..... UNTIL...

As I mentioned in my last blog, I DO have more interests.  I have allot going on in my life right now and school hasn't even started yet.  I have a young one that I have to get ready to go back to school and I am just about going crazy trying to get everything ready - but then again, I almost can't wait to have solid blocks of time each day that are all for me.  I know that sounds insanely selfish, but I do need some time that is just mine alone.  I will be busy for the next couple of weeks and then I get some free time and THEN
(dum dum dum.......)  The resounding words I hate just as much as my child ---- Can you help me with my - NO, don't say it, PLEASE - I beg of you......  Don't say it!!!   Mom I need help with my
(OH, No, Here it comes)   ........................
HOMEWORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   
MY Life is Over!!!!!!  
Year after year, my child gets smarter and I think I am getting dumber!~

But year after year, somehow we get through it.  I really believe that teachers are the most underpaid people in the world.  I don't think I could ever do it.  Especially these days - they cram as many kids in the classroom and try to teach 30 individual people the same lesson plan.  I have to say, I give props to the teachers and helpers and especially the Guidance Counselor/s who day after day keep going back in there, knowing all of the individuals they must not only deal with, but have patience and understanding and still try to get some knowledge into their heads - That is mind blowing to me, Again - More power to 'em, they are much better people than me.  And that's a Fact, Jack!

Always wishing you Health and Wealth,
Donna


Things I Like.....

Hi,
All I have posted about so far have been about the trials and the most information possible about all of the electronic cigarettes I have gone through so far to help you make a good decision and smart ways of getting the best from customer service regarding e-cigs.

BUT...

I have so many more interests that I think are worth talking about.  My last post mentioned the BALTIMORE RAVENS - If you are from Maryland, you know how much this team means to us, especially considering how many great players we lost after our most famous SUPERBOWL WIN ever.  Goodbye Ray Lewis and Ed Reed, you will never be forgotten and NEVER be replaced.  Our entire team has lost so many great players (I miss Matt Stover and HEAP, and so many more) - it's almost like we're starting over again.  But I think we still have it and I have really high hopes for this season, I watched the first Pre-Season game and already know - we WILL shine this year!

It is almost 5:00am my time and I'm starting to get tired, but I'd really like to comment on some other interests of mine next time I write, especially "GLEE" and the loss of one of the characters that I will certainly miss.

Until next time.....
Donna

Vapor 4 Life AND Nettmixvapes.com

Just a quick note- I DID get my new battery and sent the bad one back (cost @ $2.00), but I am still using the NettMix pretty pink while the Zeus charging during the RAVENS game!   YEAH Ravens won 44 to 16 - I am really into BALTIMORE RAVENS - HARD CORE!!!!  They have a contest to pick the Final 53 players.  I already have slotted 43 that I think will be in the final 53.  I LOVE Ravens Football - Believe it or not ---- GO RAVENS!!!!!

Chalk this one up to BAD TIMING or JUST MY LUCK!

Vapor 4 Life ZEUS...

Several days ago I wrote a blog stating how much I really like the Vapor Zeus and how it only had one battery.  I suggested that I would like to have a second for emergencies, but that I was pleased with what I had and didn't need the second battery.  A day or two after I posted that blog, I'll bet you can guess what happened......
The battery stopped working - It JUST STOPPED!

Imagine how ironic...

The good news:  I did call Vapor 4 Life and they said the battery was covered and would send another one. I would have to return the dead one at my cost (not so fair) but a small price to pay to get back to my great vaping back.

I also found out they now have new colors and battery sizes, you can check them out on Vapor4Life.com

In the mean time....
I had been talking with someone earlier that week about a new store that had opened up where I live called NettMix Custom Vapes.  I went there and bought a very nice set (2) batteries and all of the goodies to go with them.  I got really pretty pink (eGo) batteries and everything to match which cost me over $100.00 and that was still a good price for what I got.  But within a day or two I realized they just weren't as good as my Zeus product.  This system is still a good one for anyone else who hasn't tried the Zeus and I would definitely recommend this particular system for a serious connoisseur of electronic cigarettes and it IS more cost effective and almost as good as the Zeus.  They do offer many flavors and different sizes of juice so you can try them out for only a few dollars each.  Another really COOL thing about them is that they mix the juice on site - so you know you are getting the freshest juice out there.  They are also on the web at Nettmixcustomvapes.com, you can visit the store and also make purchases.  I would ask that if you do purchase any items that you reference me dsdshome or by name and I will get a small credit toward my future purchases. When you give them your information, anyone you recommend who purchases from them and they mention your name, will get you credit for each of their purchases.

So now I have both kits and will keep the NettMix electronic cigarettes for back up or if I go somewhere special and just want a really cute e-cig for the day or night.

Vapor 4 Life - ZEUS!! Really Lovin' It














       
Hi,  It's been a while since I've written a review and that's for a very good reason.  I have been happily using the new V4L (Vapor 4 Life - v4l.com) ZEUS!!  It's the size of the 3.5ml tanks, but looks like a sleek cigar.  I got mine in all black.  You can still buy what ever flavor juice you like and it lasts much longer than the tanks.  I still refill it a couple times a day, but you don't need that much juice and it's still the flavors you like.  I've been using it for a little while now and although they only give you 1 battery, you can recharge via USB when on the computer and plug in (and still use) while charging.  The end doesn't have a jeweled color or anything fancy (that's where you use the plug it in to charge) but once you get over that - It's a pretty cool way of vaping!!  I am very pleased with this and going back to the small little drip tip is not even tempting to me anymore.  It does take a little getting used to but I am very happy with what I have now.

** One special NOTE:  Once you fill with your liquid, you really do have to wait for the liquid to soak in.  I put the plastic plug in the bottom and fill.  Then I usually put it on the window sill to soak in.  The instructions say for about three minutes and that is about right.  Also, don't forget to clean the metal parts that go together.  I use alcohol on a q-tip and just clean both pieces and then use  the dry end to wipe off.  I will clean them about 2-3 times per week, but you don't need to clean the "Smileomizer" if it is new.  

Also, they run specials almost daily on their products and I think they are running a major specials on the ZEUS starter kit, since it is new.  I would prefer to have an extra battery just for emergencies, but so far I haven't needed it.  The extra battery is expensive so I haven't  gotten one.  It would probably be just as cost effective to buy another starter kit than just the battery.  And I did buy the small because that was all they had at the time I bought my kit.  Now they have the large, but that is the size of the "tank" portion only.  If I bought a large it would be the size of the 6ml tank while the rest of the "cigar" is still small.  But remember the small is still the width of a cigar not a cigarette.  So once I got use to that I didn't even want the little cigarette style anymore.

Hope this information finds you healthy and happy and have even more fun Vaping!!

New Information about V4L and Eversmoke

Hi Again,

I have changed up some things with the Vapor4Life products - V4L.com.  I tried the smaller 3.5ml tank and LOVE IT Soooo Much more than the 6ml (bigger tank).  I was having some difficulty with the big tank after a while (it seemed to lose power and flavor) and the shear size of it is okay for home, but not so much when going out.  I really like the sleekness of the smaller tank and it always tastes fresh.  They don't sell my favorite flavor anymore but still have many different "mint" flavors that I like.  As I said before - I will mix two flavors to get a great tasting cig.  I will mix spearmint or wintergreen with WOW peppermint to give it a boost or add another menthol flavor to perk up a weaker flavor.  If I just want a great smooth taste, I'll just use one or the other.  This is a lot of trial and error and you can't send the e-liquids back, so you just have to bite it, if you don't like it. 

I used to smoke Salem Slim Lights 100's, the flavors that I buy steady are:
WOW Peppermint, Wintergreen and Spearmint.  I also like to add Mint Nobacco juice and Cool Nobacco juice for a little kick.

EVERSMOKE.com:  Now, this company will really work with you!  My last order was in April, 2012 and I got an email from one of the reps. who said he would be MY rep. for all of my needs.  I emailed back about the fact that I only have automatic batteries and would like to get the manual to see if they would work better.  We sent emails back and forth a few times and then he called and I decided to try again.  He worked out an amazing deal for me, so I am going to give them another "go-round".  I'll report back once I get them and try again.  I can say without a doubt their menthol and peppermint flavors are THE BEST I have tried.  When I started tying out the V4L flavors - my standard was to see how close I could get to the Eversmoke flavors, THAT'S how great they are!  Eversmoke flavor certainly set the bar for me.

I'll check back in soon, but as always.....
BE PROUD OF YOURSELF FOR TAKING THE FIRST STEPS TO GET HEALTHIER!!
AND... Let all of the people around you know that you are doing it!  It really makes it easier when you have people who will give you encouragement and support while you are taking this difficult step.  Honestly, this was difficult at first (because the ones I started with were awful) it was only until I found the two brands that I think are excellent that this became so darn easy for me now.  I have tested out so many YUK brands so that you don't have to.  As I have stated in the past, I am doing this on my own, and am paying my way through it so I can give some decent advice to any "newbies".   I did it for myself, but then I thought others could benefit from my mishaps and non-starters along the way.

REALLY HOPE THIS HELPS!!

All My Best and Good Luck :)
