    Need some advice regarding 100% VG base

    as a rule of thumb you are always going to use around 20% flavoring, but as the apple caramel example above, some flavors are stronger than others so its always safer to start low, test, add more flavor, test, add more flavor, test. Its like cooking, a little more salt, a little more oregano...

    eJuice Me Up - eJuice Calculator

    This program is all kinds of ridiculousness... I cant tell you how easy you make diy, thank you so much. Started vaping full time about 3 weeks ago. Because of your calc I stated DIY the very next week. Made my first juice of buttered popcorn and it rocked. also with your nic mixing calc...

    Kona Cream

    that's the calc I use too. So you are only using a total of 2.5% flavoring rather than the general 20% flavoring? Any chance you could copy the .rec card here?

    Any Retail Stores Carry Kanthal Wire?

    I have been told that local hobby stores carry the nichrome resistance wire. Maybe that can work for you in a pinch and you may like it better than kanthal. I started a thread the other day about kanthal vs nichrome that may have more info...

    Menthol Question...

    Was never a menthol smoker, but don't mind a vape every once in a while with menthol. I made a green apple menthol the other day that was pretty good. Nice and simple. maybe I will graduate to some of the more complex later and will watch this thread for recommended ones.

    visual diff between T3s and Protank/EVOD coils.????

    Great point @ibcr And I think kanger did a pretty good job with the migration to one atty head. and how those with the mt3 and t3 tanks can upgrade just the inexpensive base piece to continue using your tank and benefit from the new atty design Kanger MT3s Base Replacement.

    "Isn't this common knowledge?" And the hiring standards to work a B&M...

    Yeah, the OP and a few others are spoiled with b and m stores that aren't just money money money. The chain in my area (and yes its a chain now because they found enough suckers to open another store) is clueless. I believe they think as well as train the employees that the vaping world only...

    New to vaping

    I was like you a few weeks ago. I compiled and cleaned up my notes to try and be as basic and simple as possible. Check out the link in my signature to my beginner entry level blog. It basically reiterates what everyone else says, ego battery and evod tank, but I also go into how to maintain...

    AVE open right now

    Ive had both bb and gj for almost a week. BB still just tastes like straight chocolate and GJ still tastes great and has not changed. I hope it doesn't because its "currently" way better than BB

    Message to premium eJuice vendors

    Agreed. If I buy a premium juice at a super premium price I believe super premium service and product should be returned. As many have mentioned just don't shop those places. And that's how the market will win and self govern itself since people will stop buying from those places.

    Not sure about regular battery pack but I saw a mod running on 4 nihm rechargeable batteries.

    Steampunk Mods

    I need to stop reading this thread. In three weeks of full time vaping I am now making my own juice, have 4 mods, svd, and rebuilding all my kanger attys. I do not need to start making my own mods (just yet)... :). But some really cool stuff. Nice change from all the shiny light sabers out there.

    No vaping allowed at Starbucks

    Agreed, but there are soo many near me its convenience plus they have drive throughs so even more convenient. Though I have been going to panaera lately, as their iced coffee is twice as big and a dollar cheaper. Of course at Panera you cant get a mocha-frappe-lappa-coco-soy-half this-half...

    Message to premium eJuice vendors

    Then why are you protesting this thread? Pot meet kettle? This thread has not rallied against any business, rather a business practice that if vendors listened to what some people wanted they could get an idea on how to make their business a little better. The OP is basically doing exactly...

    No vaping allowed at Starbucks

    What is their smoking policy? One of the 10 stores that are 2 blocks from my house, there are tons of people sitting outside smoking. They even have ashtrays on the tables. Another one there are signs posted no smoking within 15 feet of the entrance. Just on the smell principal alone its a...

    Message to premium eJuice vendors

    With the 100's of and getting to be 1000's of "juice" makers out there, the fly by night startups you describe will eventually get weeded out since they cannot offer a full featured experience with all the bells and whistles (good service, support, inventory, updating products, multiple premium...

    Message to premium eJuice vendors

    While I do still buy some premium juices here and there and I do like the customizable ratios and flavorings some offer by doing it fresh, I agree with the point the OP is making. We all know how much they are spending on their supplies and that it is costing them no more than $1 per 10 ml...
