    My Most Important StockUp Package has been delayed. What to do?

    It was early the 27th, does the first day not count as a business day? Wouldn't that make this the 4th business day? And, while I realize Saturday is not traditionally a business day, packages do move and get delivered on Saturdays, at least via USPS. I guess my only point of this post is that...

    My Most Important StockUp Package has been delayed. What to do?

    Well, I appreciate it. I guess my concern reads as sheer panic to some, which I can understand. It has always been my intention to be finished stocking up by August 8th so that everything after that is essentially extra, and this is basically the last piece of it. Should I have ordered a little...

    My Most Important StockUp Package has been delayed. What to do?

    I know these things happen, so I can only stress I'm not trying to be unreasonable. I'm not angry at Nude, or even really the post office. I just don't have my package that I was hoping to have by now, and would like to track it down if I can... which is always a not-fun experience. No one has...

    My Most Important StockUp Package has been delayed. What to do?

    Thanks @Bonskibon. I hope so :) There are just other factors that are making me mad about this, notably that I ordered ahead of leaving for a trip and I was so sure it would be here in time. My partner will be at home for a few more days but if it's not here by Friday, it's just gonna sit at the...

    My Most Important StockUp Package has been delayed. What to do?

    Interesting, there's a whole lot of wrong assumptions going on in here. Not pointing any fingers.... I have been in touch with NN, who have not responded in days. The information that I cannot file I claim is wrong. I am concerned because of what @retired1 says, as well as simply needing...

    My Most Important StockUp Package has been delayed. What to do?

    I ordered a bunch of 100mg nic from Nude last week. It supposedly shipped out on the 27th, but since then hasn't left San Diego's PO. According to USPS, I need to wait seven business days until I start a claim. I'm worried about the nicotine sitting in possibly hot places while I wait for...

    Dragon Punch -- Simple, all TFA

    Yes, I always order bottles when I'm ordering flavors and VG/PG etc., but I almost always only order "usable" bottles, i.e. ones that I will carry around with me. Storage bottles are usually a little pricier than should be on the 2-3 places I pretty much always order from, so I've gotta make a...

    Dragon Punch -- Simple, all TFA

    Yeah, that makes sense. I'm almost the opposite. I can't sit and work on juice for hours... I mean I can certainly sit and focus for a while with it when I need to, but I guess it does kind of work for me to devote tiny little flashes of time to make my juice most of the time, and just sit when...

    Dragon Punch -- Simple, all TFA

    @Sugar_and_Spice the way you do things is so smart! I've been mixing a long time but tend to make things as I go most of the time. I have one recipe I use 90% of the time so I keep a huge bottle of premixed flavoring and make 20mL as I need it... But your way sounds so much better. Glad you like...

    Dragon Punch -- Simple, all TFA

    To be fair, looking at what you posted it's almost a completely different concoction based on my recipe. Not that there's anything wrong with that!! But, and correct me if I'm wrong, I've got to imagine with that amount of pom and dragonfruit, that particular recipe tastes more like a blend of...

    Dragon Punch -- Simple, all TFA

    Just my 2c as you've already gotten a lot of good advice, but when making your own recipes it's really just trial and error and figuring out roughly what percentages are good with each flavor. It doesn't take as much time as it might seem up front. I also always recommend finding some recipes...

    Fancy(ish) builds and (slightly) higher resistance

    Makes sense! I've made plenty of builds just to pass the time.

    Fancy(ish) builds and (slightly) higher resistance

    @Lizard King forget about 30g, I just wrapped a fused clapton this AM with 40g nichrome o.o A royal PITA. It's working well but as you can imagine, barely worth the struggle. Why exactly are you having trouble keeping your claptons at a higher resistance? Is it just because you feel like you...

    mech mod or regulated?

    Certain atomizers work better at lower wattages than others, I've found. At least depending on what you're looking for. I rarely ever use my Twisted Messes below around 50W, and it's really not necessarily meant for it. (You could obviously use it at a lower wattage, I just personally feel it's...

    mech mod or regulated?

    @skelley I think the P2.5 is even older, actually. I could be wrong though as I had a v2 that I then got upgraded. Mine is still working and it's from 2010. I agree that is the one regulated device that might hold up as well as any mech, and Provape stands behind it. too bad it doesn't put out a...

    mech mod or regulated?

    At least a couple. Not everyone can afford dozens, even the less expensive ones. @Baditude you're absolute right, of course. In light of deeming regs if I could only pick one, I would go mechanical for the longevity. Still, for those that can afford more than one device, there's really no...

    mech mod or regulated?

    Basically, I think anyone concerned with stockpiling should have at least one FULLY mechanical mod-- providing they are willing to do the research required to keep themselves safe-- as full mechs will outlast any regulated device. However, there's no reason you can't make a few regulated devices...

    RX200S amp reading/cutoff

    Great, thanks @BillW50! Definitely helpful. I have an RX200 so if it's the same it's no problem. Just want to be certain before I spend the money. I don't believe it can fire below .1 in power mode but otherwise that all seems correct. I have had no issues with it, at least not the same as the...

    New Reuleaux RX200S

    No, I know resistance doesn't factor in @KenD. Or else, it shouldn't. It DOES matter on the cuboid, because of that cutoff. I understand that's not how it works, but that's what Joyetech did. So I'm just making sure the 200S doesn't do the same thing (i.e. cutoff ridiculously low), especially...

    mech mod or regulated?

    It will all need to pass the FDA's new regulations through the form, as it stands now. Doesn't matter what kind it is. A fully mechanical mod has fewer parts to fail. However, it is hard to find a quality device at a reasonable price. If you are a new vaper, regulated devices are safer. People...
