Introducing Cloud Company: an exciting new e-liquid from the creators of Suicide Bunny. We’ve maxed out the VG to give you the biggest clouds around." This line is Max VG for those who love blowing clouds or are sensitive to PG.

Tobeco Super Tank Review

Tobeco Super Tank

Today I'll be reviewing the Super Tank from Tobeco. I was lucky enough to win this tank in a contest from Global Vapors. I had never heard of this tank before so I was very curious to see how it performed and compared to other tanks.

The Super Tank is a sub-ohm tank, one of the many that are out in the market now. I happen to be a tank girl, so when I have the chance to try a new one I get excited.

Innokin iSub Tank Review

Today I'm going to review the Innokin iSub sub-ohm tank. I've been using them for a while now and I'm really impressed with how nice they are and how affordable. The iSub is the most affordable sub-ohm tank on the market right now with prices starting around $12.45 and going up from there depending on where you purchase them. Replacement coils are super affordable too, starting around $8.99 for a 5 pack.

Down East Vapes: Orange Mango, Lemonade, Nor'easter, Mountain Berry, Strawberry, Grapeade

Down East Vapes: Orange Mango, Lemonade, Nor'easter, Mountain Berry, Strawberry, Grapeade

Today I have the pleasure of bringing you another review from Down East Vapes. They sent me some of their newest flavors to try and they are great summer flavors. I have had the pleasure of reviewing many of Down East Vapes flavors, you can read those reviews here and here.

Down East Vapes e-liquids come in child-proof glass dropper bottles. The labels are very nice. I really like how they have all the information right on the front, so you can see with a glance, the born on date, nicotine level, pg/vg ratio, and lot number. There are also warnings and cautions along with the address of the company. The graphics are nice too, no craziness, just a beautiful picture of whatever flavor it's representing. They are available in either 15 or 30ml and are $8.95 and 17.95 respectively. You have the option of either 50/50 or Max VG. Nicotine is available in 0, 3, 6, 12 and 18mg.

Welcome to the new site!

Welcome to BellaVapes Reviews & Contest Info..

First, I want to say welcome to the new BellaVapes site! My WordPress page is still up but I'm in the process of moving everything over here. I changed sites because WordPress was limited in what it could do and wanted me to pay a high yearly fee just to be able to post a contest app or embed a video. I'm not getting paid to do this so keeping costs as low as I can is a must! I did get a new fancy domain name :) BellaVapes.com was already taken so I chose BellaVapes Reviews.

Anyway, I hope you like the new site. It's still a work in progress, I've been up for two days working on it. Hopefully it will be like I want it soon. If you encounter any glitches or see something funny on here, tweet me on twitter and let me know please!

Craft Vapery Subscription Box Review

Craft Vapery contacted me and asked if I'd like to try one of their subscription boxes in exchange for a review. After checking out the site and reading about it, I was excited. Craft Vapery is an e-liquid subscription service that hand picks your e-liquids every month based on the profile you fill out of your likes and dislikes. This isn't just a "throw some juice in a box and send it out" type of service, they test and review each flavor before adding it to the Craft Vapery family, and only offer premium brands.

Craft Vapery offers six subscription plans, ranging from 2 to 8 bottles a month. Prices start at $19.99 and go up to $61.99. You get full-sized 15 ml bottles, not samples and you are guaranteed to get the minimum of what your sub plan is but you may get more, say a 30 ml bottle instead of 15ml. You can also add coils to your monthly subscription, a great option if you use tanks and don't want to have to remember to order some.

St. Augustine Organic: Courage, Big Catch

Today I have a couple of e-liquids to share with you from the St. Augustine Organic line from Spectrum Vapor. St. Augustine Organic is a new line of e-liquids that are 100% VG and are made with only the finest organic ingredients. They are carefully hand crafted in small batches in St Augustine, Florida. There is a total of five e-liquids in this line and St. Augustine Organic sent me two of them to share with you.

The bottles are 32ml glass dropper bottles and the labels are packed with information. Each label has the description of the flavor, nicotine level, 100% VG, ingredients and warnings, their satisfaction guarantee information, batch number and more. (Click on the pictures below to see the labels). The artwork on the labels is beautiful. St. Augustine Organic is priced at $28 for a 32ml bottle, and available in nicotine levels of 0, 3, 6. and 12mg. I tried these flavors in 3mg nicotine using various devices and sub-ohm tanks with .5 ohm coils.

Pop Bot: Nana Nectar, Crack Pom, La Vaca Azul

Today I have three more flavors from Pot Bot E-Liquid to share with you. They sent me three more flavors from their premium line of e-liquids that are themed around drink flavors. You can read my previous review here.

Since my last review, Pop Bot has changed its labels a little bit, moving the name, nicotine level and vg/pg ratio from the back of the bottle to the front. They also changed the vg/pg ratio from 50/50 to Max Vg which they state on the site is a true Max VG base of 90vg/10pg. They still come in 1 once (30ml) glass, shrink wrapped bottles and have a tamper proof seal. Nicotine is available in 0, 3, 5, and 10mg. It looks like they have lowered their prices also, from $22.50 to $19.99.

Craft Vapery: Interview with Josh Krane

Today I have something a little different to share with you. The good folks at Craft Vapery contacted me and asked me if I'd be interested in trying one of their subscription boxes and after checking out the site and reading about the service I was excited. If you haven't heard of Craft Vapery, it is a personalized e-liquid subscription service and online store. I'll talk more about the service and my experience with it in another post, after I've had a chance to try the service.

I also had the opportunity to interview the founder and COO of Craft Vapery, Josh Krane. I submitted questions to him via email and asked him questions that I thought someone who hadn't tried the service would want to know. Below is my interview with Josh.
