    Who has the best prices for authentic batteries?

    NU and Zoid....the only wrong answer here is to use the batteries as is. In my opinion you are both right. Not one person said those batteries look safe or even usable. The two of you are just really expressing your concern in different ways.

    Help on e juices

    You seem to have the crux of what it takes to cloud chase down pretty well. Now find a juice that meets your criteria. In my experience RDTA's are more like a dripper than a tank when it comes to being able to handle a very viscous juice. You can go with really any max VG juice in that tank. If...

    Who has the best prices for authentic batteries?

    Then I agree w/ zoidman, send them all back or chalk it up to experience and just chuck 'em (responsibly) and start over.

    Who has the best prices for authentic batteries?

    Dumb question but, did you charge them when you got them or did you assume they had a full charge on arrival?

    Who has the best prices for authentic batteries?

    Batteries are something I don't really price shop. I found illumn does seem to have very competitive prices and good quick shipping. "WOMANS CAVE" now that's a new one on me, but I sure don't want you to get battery acid all over it either! Sounds painful!!!!!

    Travel and Vaping Traveling with 2 box mods

    Mongo summed it up. Just remember, no batteries in checked luggage and drain the tanks. You can keep mods in checked bag with rebuilding supplies if you wish. Just no batteries in checked bags. Batteries in proper trays is best.

    Can I microwave my ejuice to speed up steeping?

    When I first started mixing I wanted to "speed steep" everything, just so I could try my new mixes and because I was needing juice in general. You are in that stage. Now I mix very large batches of my go to flavors (220ml each or more) Once you get in the routine and have plenty of steeped juice...

    Just got some new gear :)

    My wife gets almost a day and a half out of any 300mah battery. I'm lucky to get 8 hours. I know it's really due to higher my wattage and lower ohm builds, but that little pico does a great job for her.

    Funny comment from smoker

    I've been reduced to a general eye roll when I hear others comments on vaping. Too much info out there now for people to make idiotic, uneducated suppositions. If they are a smoker, I tell them they are right and that they should continue to smoke. I tell them how much I miss the two pack a day...

    Just got some new gear :)

    The pico seems to be a real work horse. My wife can't kill hers. Since she got it she won't use any other mod.

    Airflow and help on getting a tank

    Not a hijack, but I gave up on drop in coil tanks after about 6 months of vaping. Went to RTA's and never looked back. Hearing about the options described to you, I think it may be time to revisit this technology. It seems they have really come along further than I thought.

    murky to clear

    Cinnamon can beat the snot out of plastic tanks, but that is a new one for me. Can't say I've noticed that before. I gave up on cinnamon flavors though as I can never get the flavor out of the tank till it's washed and rewicked.

    Cleaning LDPE Squeeze Bottles.

    Dish soap and water, air dry. I've never had a foul taste or saw contaminants in plastic bottles yet. A simple wash, just to be sure, never hurts though.

    Shelf Life of Creams ?

    I've had creams on the shelf for over a year ( I kinda over prepped ) and have had no issues with open or sealed bottles. Maybe you got some type of cross contamination or something? Flavors really don't go bad. Remember just the PG in the solution itself is an amazing preservative.

    Splitting up 2 liters of nic for long term storage

    You can ditch the safety gear. Goggles and heavy gloves are overkill. If you do contact 100mg/ml nic on exposed skin, just wash it off and you are fine. Pure nic would be another story, but even the 100 nic is relatively harmless even if it's unvapable.

    Juice flavor profile

    I'm not so sure, that's why I asked if you could taste the plain juice. Give it a try, nothing to lose by getting a little extra flavoring. You may even start considering making your own, it's not as hard as one may believe, is super cheap and you can dial in your flavors as needed.

    Juice flavor profile

    Well, if you can taste it in juice form, but not in the vape, I would try out a few more tanks or even a dripper to see if that helps. But like you say, it's not smoking!

    Juice flavor profile

    Some gear gives better flavor than others. Could be a matter of your tank and not the juice. Do you get the same experience off of all your equipment?

    Juice flavor profile

    What if you just taste the juice itself, like off your finger, instead of vaping it? Does that give you more of a real flavor?
