    Happy birthday, new Reonaut ... happy birthday to me

    Warts and self-pity - not the best concept for a t-shirt, I agree, but there's a dark and edgy "open mike night" sort of poem in there somewhere. Wow ... that's ... wow. Yeah, I don't wanna be the sultan of that. Probably best all around just to use that term here in the forum where its...

    I want an RBA that wont drive me crazy!

    +1 for cotton. It saved my Aga-T2 from complete banishment. No more mesh for me. I make a micro-style coil, but larger diameter than the ones I make for my drippers, hook it up, roll up a long cotton wick and run it through the coil and into the tank. Works beautifully and doesn't taint my...

    Pro Coil - tried it?

    Same concept as the Raven from GotVapes, but the wick hole looks different. I found the Ravens to be temperamental and inconsistent. Some leak, some don't. Some wick, some don't. Some flood, some don't. Despite that, I bought a bunch of them cuz when they work, they're fantastic - quite possibly...

    Happy birthday, new Reonaut ... happy birthday to me

    Can't swear the phrase is original - I don't specifically recall seeing it anywhere, but odds are pretty good somebody else already came up with it. A t-shirt would be great though, or maybe a J-Wrap. Hmmm.....

    Top 5 best Vanilla Custard juice?

    Gremlin is excellent - I'm vaping it now. Very creamy and not too sweet. I've never eaten vanilla custard, so I can't comment on it's "custardiness," but it doesn't taste like straight vanilla. I like it better than Cell Block 4 and Nicoticket's Creme Brulee, which are the only other two custard...

    Happy birthday, new Reonaut ... happy birthday to me

    Thanks, everybody. I'm really excited about it - er, I mean I will be :) Wasn't sure about the VV at first, but I have a slew of mechs and drippers for any subbing I want to do and decided it would be nice to have another regulated device to go with the Provi. Really excited about the RM2 - one...

    Happy birthday, new Reonaut ... happy birthday to me

    Found a great deal on a VV Grand and RM2 in the classies today and thought I'd surprise myself for my birthday. It's a little extravagant, but I thought what the heck. I know how much I've always wanted one. Can't wait to see the look on my face - I'm totally not expecting it. Shhh ... don't...

    Nude Nicotine DIY Flavor Guide

    You can read about my experience with the Patchouli Vanilla a few posts up. Same issue - waaay too floral at first (I suppose "Patchouli" should have been my first clue). After three days of steeping, though, the aroma, at least, has changed dramatically. I haven't tasted it yet, but it smells...

    Nude Nicotine DIY Flavor Guide

    So, um ... yeah - precision matters. Mixed up a 30 ml bottle of Honey Tobacco last night using the diluted concentrate, per we2cool's suggestion, so this time, I can say I used .5% and have an actual basis for saying it. Haven't tasted it yet, but it's obviously a much lighter mix than the small...

    Nude Nicotine DIY Flavor Guide

    Excellent idea, thanks. The biggest problem I have with DIY is me - precision doesn't come naturally to me (and I have the juice to prove it :)) Sweet! How big is the batch you've been steeping and what percentage? I'm about to mix up 30ml of Honey Tobacco (precisely measured with my diluted...

    Nude Nicotine DIY Flavor Guide

    LOL! Yeah - I shouldn't even have stated a percentage cuz I really don't have any idea what .015 ml looks like in a syringe. What I actually did was pull just enough concentrate into the syringe to barely show over leur lock piece on the needle, then drip, shake, drip, shake, etc. until I was...

    Mother Or Primary Flavors

    I'm pretty new to DIY, but I recommend Malt from Nature's Flavors. I've taken to adding a few drops of this to almost all of my mixes - makes everything smoother and fuller and seems to give them a more "finished" quality. I've also used it to salvage a mass-produced tobacco juice that I got as...

    Nude Nicotine DIY Flavor Guide

    I just mixed my first batch of Honey Tobacco about 20 minutes ago, and I can tell you that it is VERY thick. I mixed it at .5% (or as close to that as I could get - hard to measure out such a small amount for a 3ml test batch). It took a good deal of shaking just to get it mixed into my base. I...

    A good natural tasting honey/honey flue cured?

    Just to update - after a few days of steeping, the VZ Honey at 5 drops/ml was very nice. The faint floral note I was tasting at first disappeared, and the slight sharpness or acidity that was present when fresh smoothed out pretty well. Next batch, I'll try dropping back to 4 drops/ml and...

    Excellent! This looks great - thank you :)
