    Mini Tank Cracked

    The leaks occurred in the clear ones before I had a chance to clean them. One fill and then the trash.

    Mini Tank Cracked

    No more cracks, but two new clear ones have leaked with the first fill. Kind of seeping at the base where it screws to the battery. Hope my bad luck doesn't keep going. I know it's only $4 each, but it would be nice to get a little longer use out of them. I thought I had a substantial stash...

    New Calculator to try

    Since all I have is a Mac, the only thing I could try is the Excel file. It worked great! Thank you. I wish I could see the rest of the files work, but that's ok. Thanks.

    Temperature of Heat Steeping

    I have searched multiple threads and forums for temperatures of steeping with heat. I've seen the following: Room Temperature Body Heat Temperature In a dark drawer temperature 93 Degrees Centegrade (Seems very hot to me) Hot water out of the tap Temperature Hot rice out of a microwave...

    Nicotine Quality - PG Base

    Since my mother is the end user and not me, I wanted to get the best I could, without having to experiment. I ordered some VT Nic.

    Nicotine Comparisons

    Newbie here. From what I can figure out from this thread and others, is that I can't go too wrong with VT Nic. I am just trying out the DIY process and ordered some of it. Hope it works well. I don't smoke. I'm just trying to reduce the costs for my elderly mother vaping.

    Nicotine Quality - PG Base

    I am just getting into the DIY mixing and have noticed a great difference in pricing for Nicotine Liquid. Is there really a difference in them? Intellectually speaking, how much difference can there be if you are simply blending Nicotine with a base liquid to a certain strength. My untrained...

    Is this normal usage?

    Now. If only I could make something close to Tribeca! If it was easy, everyone would do it.

    Is this normal usage?

    I have a friend who is starting to mix his own. It seems there is a learning curve to get it right. Since I don't vape or smoke, I would not have a clue of what I was making.

    Is this normal usage?

    Nearest Vape store to me is 50 miles away. I am not inclined to drive that far, just to find out what they have. My Mom also seems contest with Tribeca. I have searched for a substitute, but since I am not inclined to experiment when I have to order online. Best to stay with what works. She...

    Is this normal usage?

    Just saving my money for the next sale. I know the e-liquid is always off 10% for us, but it only makes sense if I get more than $75 worth for the free shipping. I just layed out almost $200 on the Black Friday Sale.

    Is this normal usage?

    I was just a bit worried because from what I have deduced from lots of reading on forums. It seems that 1ml of 18mg e-liquid equates to about 7 legacy cigarettes. I was pleased that she had been using the equivalent of 11 or 12 legacy cigarettes which was close to her 12 or so a day before...

    Is this normal usage?

    I have a lot of Tribeca 18ml due to the recent sale. I will wait until the next sale and get some reduced nicotine e-liquid. The current sale in only on starter kits and doesn't help me much. Thanks for all the comments and suggestions.

    Is this normal usage?

    I just chatted with Halo about this and they took the safe route out and suggested I contact a health professional before continuing to use their products. So no help there. I suppose I can't blame them.

    Is this normal usage?

    Mom has "very short term memory". She doesn't seem to care what flavor is in the e-cig. So we chose a flavor we could live with when in a closed environment like a car. A couple other flavors were offensive to my wife who has asthma. Mom "wear's" the G6 around her neck, because she was...

    Is this normal usage?

    Mom was going through a single carto per day when she first starting vaping. Equaling maybe 1ml per day. I switched over to the mini tanks because of the ease of refilling. Mom immediately went to two fills per day. Equals 1.5ml total. For the last week, her use has increased to 3 fills. Equals...

    Halo User Here with a request

    Hello, I am looking for a set up similar to Halo's Triton, but with an automatic battery. This is for my mother who is elderly and has severe short term memory. Remember to press a button would be too much for her. We have successfully transitioned her to the Halo G6 system, but would like a...

    Suggestions & Feedback

    I am using the G6 system primarily because of the automatic battery. It's for my elderly mother who has a severe short term memory problem. Remembering to press a button would not be good. She is going through three filled mini-tanks a day and as many charges on the batteries. I have several...

    Halo G6 is leading candidate for my next step up

    I decided to stay with the G6 because of the auto battery. Just trying to keep it simple for my mother. Buttons confuse her. If Triton batteries had an automatic option, I would jump on them.

    Mini Tank Cracked

    Never cold. We live in Texas :) My mother keeps the G6 on a chain around her neck. Otherwise she is always misplacing it. I keep four tanks in rotation. Two in use because that is what Mom uses each day and I can fill them each evening. The other two I have drying after cleaning for the next...
