Hello. My name is Mike. I am kind of new to the vape world. I have been using a Juul for over a year. I am going to be switching over to a regular vape. I have tried many different vape juice flavors over the past year but have hated all of them. They all have a lingering tobacco taste. I like very fruity and flavorful vapes. With the off brand juul pods I get a lot of flavor with no tobacco taste. My favorite kind was MNGO Pink Lemonade. So with the ban on flavored pods coming in I am switching to a regular vape and do not know what to buy. What kind of flavorful fruity or tropical juice can I get with absolutely no hint of tobacco? I dont want my juice to taste anything at all like a cigarette. and I would prefer a drag similar to that of a juul.

between here and there
Did you know there are refillable pods that fit the juul. For juices you can try looking at ejuices.com. just about any flavor you can eat you can vape. You can select size of bottle and nic strength. Some offer versions with and without menthol or ice as they call it. Just have a look on their website. I am sure other members will chime in with their recommendations.
Good luck and welcome to ecf.
:)

You can also do a google search for just about anything.
I did manage to find this.

    If you vaped the 5% or 50 mg/ml Juul pods then you might want to check out this peach juice. It's quite delicious. Their other flavors could be good too but I'm sort of new to pods.

    As far as pod systems there are tons out there. Some probably better than what I'm about to link you but I like it and it works well, the Breeze 2. Grab an extra pod and some coils too, they're linked below. I prefer the 1.2 ohm one myself. The kit comes with a 0.6 and a 1.0 so you'll be able to try them all.

    Or don't get any or some of this and go with someone else's suggestions. That's the beauty of open systems, there's so many choices. Welcome to ECF!

    I don't know of any eliquid that has any tobacco flavoring in it unless it is marketed as a tobacco flavor. Meaning: I don't think you will find a strawberry liquid that also has tobacco flavoring in it unless it is marketed as that. My experience is when people buy eliquid, they don't want tobacco flavoring unless they are looking for it. In fact I have a hunch that most vapers hate tobacco flavors. Honestly, they make me sick (except for a sweet RY4 but I don't even consider that tobacco flavor - is more like a dessert to me).

    Hi and welcome to the forum.

    A lot of us who smoked really end up not liking tobacco flavours for there is no way steam, as in vaping can mimic burning tobacco and many tobacco flavoured juices taste like what I imagine chewing on a cigarette end would be like.

    Good advice given already and being honest you will really need to do a bit of experimentation to find the flavours that work for you, but you'll get there in the end.

    In time you might even want to take up making your own liquids and there is a section of ECF devoted to this. Many people like me get along just fine with unflavoured juices too which might be a thing to try eventually - unflavoured liquid also gives you much longer coil life too.

    I am a pink lemonade person myself and I can honestly tell you that the vast majority of brands that offer a pink lemonade option do not register as a tobacco flavor to me and I'm very sensitive to Flavors. Now I also Vape at fairly low Nic so that might be part of the reason. I never go above 6 mg per milliliter and usually hang out at around 3 for commercial juices and two for homemade. So with less nicotine there is likely a correlation to less tobacco taste I guess but maybe not.

    At my all-time favorite pink lemonade is from vapewild it used to be called Pink elephants. But I think it's now called lemon-ade or something very similar to that. My second favorite is from "eliquid-depot" which is a place local but they do ship and it's called Summer their retail store is called Pure e-cigs. And then there's also liquid barns pink lemonade it's good however if you're making it yourself and you go a little bit too high on the concentration it tastes like black licorice to me that doesn't mean that you'll have that same experience

    You have won a golden ticket to tour the Wonka Chocolate factory.

    Try going to your local vape shop and perhaps they'll let you sample some flavors. Typically they charge a buck to join a club, which then makes it legal for you to sample flavors. It's their way of getting around the government ban of free samples.

    Welcome and glad you joined.
    Might like to ask your question in this forum(s) below (the "New Member forum" is used basically as a polite way of saying hello to all ECF members):
    Vape Pod Systems ------- Could ask " What is the best refillable pod system currently on the market and why?"

    APV and Mods Discussion -------- Could ask " Looking to give up juul pod and migrate to a all purpose mod with a great tank, any recommendations?". Suspect your really looking for the best tank to mimic (as close as you can get) the juul pod with off the shelf replaceable coils. The best mod will basically be dictated on how frequently you vape and what ohm's you plan to vape at.

    Might want to state if you are a direct lung or mouth to lung vaper.

    hello and welcome
    i also don't understand why you've been limited to tobacco flavours.

    i've never used juul, and though i'm sure some more recent, larger pod systems can give strong enough flavour, i can't imagine juul being one of them.

    for liquids to be your first question is interesting, do we understand you've got the vaping gear figured? there's a big world of flavours out there, cheap, expensive, ready for use with a certain level of freebase nicotine or nicotine salt, flavours you can mix yourself with the nicotine type and level of your choosing in addition to difference types of liquid bases which are chosen based on preference (flavouring density, cloud density, allergies, etc) and compatibility with devices/tanks and/or with nicotine level.

    this is not meant to complicate things, just to assure you, there's a lot out there you would like (chances are even in the tobacco range, which doesn't constitute the whole or even half of the available stuff_ except for wherever flavour is banned, in which case you have to go with mixing it yourself option, which isn't that hard).

    there's loads of guides and tutorials out there and here and videos on ytube for easy consumption.

    you can stay within the pod-system, like juul, but more versatile. just look up a top ten somewhere. here's a bunch of recent famous stuff




    https://www.cigabuy.com/authentic-smok-novo-2-800mah-pod-system-kit-blue-black-p-16106.html
    Authentic Smok Novo Pod System 450mAh AIO Starter Kit - Prism Chrome & Red Cobra





    Before I moved on to tastier clouds (which you might want to do, and the forum helps_ I do testify, as a recent convert), I'd quit analogs on an itty bitty plastic kiss, from a lesser manufacturer



    https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10054955/9664617-authentic-justfog-minifit-370mah-pod-system


    there's something like a pod system call AIO (all in one) youtube it_

    otherwise you might want to look into getting a MTL (mouth to lung) tank + a mod (the device, which you can hook tanks into)

    for stronger flavour DL (direct lung) tank [plus mod of course] are all over the place, but they are the farthest from a cigarette and you can't put a lot of nicotine in them (though because their vapor rate is high, technically you should be receiving a similar amount in total)

    _ i couldn't quit when i first started with DL. it makes sense it's often called 'more advanced' except it's not advancement in the sense of expertise as much as distance from a cig.

    i had to start on a pod like you, then started using DL again in conjunction with it.
    now i use MTL (mostly when i need quick relief or when i'm moving around town a lot, as it's more practical_ needing less refills, less potential leaking, requires less power-battery, relieves me quicker like a cig used to, etc) and DL most of the time, because it's tastier, and more vaping for pleasure/habit rather than needing the fix.

    i recommend getting a new decent pod or a MTL tank (innokin Zlide) with a mod (Vaporesso Swag II is a decent option for a small size) [with the latter setup you can also get a DL tank now or later to put on the same mod, though there are sometimes size compatibility issues]. youtube reviews are a must. you'll be familiar with everything in no time.

    keep coming back and ask about every detail at every step_ ppl are reakky helpful here
