    I have made JUICE!!

    If you've seen the Tom Hanks movie Castaway, you probably remember this scene: I'm feeling a little like that today. After a dozen outright fails and a dozen more "vape emergency only" results, I have finally produced a couple of juices that are not only vapable, but that I actually like...

    I'd settle for 40.

    Well, yes - over here on the plus side of caffeinated, that makes perfect sense :)

    I remember back in the day...

    Not sure about the order of appearance, the ones I remember from around the time I first joined were the Screw-driver, the Prodigy, the Buzz, the Provari and the Reo. Oh yeah - also the Phideas (?), the Chuck and the Silver Bullet. There was also a box mod with a built-in battery called the...

    Exactly - that's the only reason I'm down to 90 :)

    Carto-tanks, Ego-twists, Vamos, and octo-RBA... Next Step?

    You might want to take a look at some of the "glassomizers" on the market now, like the Kanger ProTank, the AnyVape Davide Glassomizer or the DBox Puritank. You mentioned being concerned about "unshielded glass," but these are very sturdy devices - wholly unlikely to shatter in your pocket and...

    What one thing that really changed your vaping experience for the better

    The convergence of that cheapie VV box mod from MadVapes - the only one available for under $100 at the time - a 306 atomizer and Boba's Bounty. The day I put those three things together was the day I got my first glimpse of the possibilities of vaping. The box mod is long gone and I rarely use...

    I remember back in the day...

    LOL! The "syringe mod" was my very first successful attempt at modding anything. I got so excited about it I went out and bought a box of 100 3ml syringes. Still have about 90 of them cuz almost immediately thereafter, the newest best thing ever - and I don't even remember which one - came out...

    World & National Vaping Day -Sept 19th- Be a part of History! This is what YOU can do.

    Done - 2 bounces, 2 acknowledgments. It will be interesting to see if we get a mention anywhere tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed. Huge thanks to Robin and everyone else who set this up.

    Alien Vision - Others, not Bobas, GJ, Hype

    I ordered Bees Knees during the "sorry we're out of Boba's" sale. I'd tried it before about a year ago and loved it. It's not quite as good as I remember it being, but I like it. I agree that there is nothing complex about it - it just tastes like honey. And it is very sweet cuz ... you know ...

    ECF - Heading towards 10 million! Prizes.....

    Never would have stuck with it had it not been for ECF. What a great resource. What a wonderful community. What a major time suck :)

    What's your least favorite juice?

    A caramel flavor from ... I don't want to give the vendor's name cuz the other four flavors from that sample pack were good, but whatever it was that he was calling caramel tasted and smelled like sweat and old meat - think "zombie gym socks." I had to brush my teeth and gargle with Lisetrine to...

    What's your least favorite juice?

    Bummer. I just got a bottle of it in the mail today. Haven't tried it yet, but it has absolutely no scent, so that's no help. Will let it steep for a few days and see how my experience with it compares to yours.

    Potential Mech Mod setup, input/opinions?

    If you're going to go with a mechanical mod and RDA, you also need a multimeter. Fasttech has one for less than $10. If your budget is tight, go for the less expensive igo-l over the Trident to start. The multimeter is important. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk 2

    are higher priced ejuice worth the money?

    Lots of factors affect juice quality, starting with the quality of the nicotine used. Beyond that, more and more juice makers are using house extracted flavors. I find the quality and uniqueness of some of those juices to be worth the extra money. Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk 2

    Fasttech Private V2 Clone - It Coulda Been a Contender

    I don't lose interest in conversations with most people after a few minutes - just sayin. I do agree that the post is too long, though. Did it a little at a time throughout the day and didn't realize it was that long until I posted it.

    Fasttech Private V2 Clone - It Coulda Been a Contender

    OK, maybe the "we have met the enemy" part was a little over the top. By that point, I was really just trying to wrap it up already. I'm not hating on clones - they're pretty much all I have and that's by choice. There is much to love about the PV2 and I tried to express that, but that's the...
