    Is it worth rebuilding mini vivi nova heads?

    I believe the mini and the full size units take the same coil heads.

    Is it worth rebuilding mini vivi nova heads?

    PBusardo seems to think it's pretty easy. A PBusardo Tutorial - Vivi Nova Cleaning & Rebuilding - YouTube Thinking to myself,"Hey, if he can do it, so can I", I ordered the wick and wire. Then I took one apart and saw how small it is. Then I ordered a few replacements :laugh: I'm sure...

    Any good DIY tobacco recieps out there?

    Are you using it alone, or have you added other flavors / enhancers? I've been trying to track down a decent yet generic tobacco recipe. My wife and I use a lot of our local B&M "USA's Favorite", both by itself and as a base for a blueberry tobacco blend. After a supplier shortage a couple of...

    My Credit card was compromised

    Well, keep an eye on it. It can be days, weeks, or even months between the time you're comprimised and the time your number is used.

    Give me your dark, rich, heavy vapes, please!

    That sounds pretty tasty! Sadly I left the Brown sugar off of my first few orders, figuring I had enough sweeteners for now. What a shame, looks like I'm going to have to place another order. I'm sure my wife will understand :rolleyes: Since I received my first order of flavors I've been...

    COST OF YOUR DYI and flavoring %

    My first 3ml bottle of DIY e-juice cost upwards of $100. The rest of it's been free ;)

    How do you carry around and store your new goodies?

    An Altoids tin holds a spare 650 eGo and a few clearos. The 3ml bottle at the end is my ADV refill. Tool drawer liner and some spray glue keep things from making too much noise, though it's a bit fugly. Whatever it is you decide to use, make sure it's washable or that you can clean it in...

    DIY workstation

    I received my first DIY supplies less than two weeks ago. I made a nice tray for the flavor bottles, figuring I'd be good to go for the next month. I'm already out of room :facepalm:

    Is it best to get a starter kit or buy them separate?

    Have you already found a DIY mix you like? I chose to go with a wider variety of smaller bottles to stretch my initial investment. Not saying that's right, wrong, or what anybody else shoud do, just something to consider. If you've got particular flavors in mind, perhaps you could call one...

    FOUND: The perfect stand for 8 ml vials!

    The WL vials are 17mm; that's a touch over 5/8". If I had to guess, I'd say it's not going to fit. :(

    Is it best to get a starter kit or buy them separate?

    The only things you really need are the ingredients, a few syringes in different sizes, a few needles (also varying sizes), and some empty bottles. Choosing your first round of ingredients is probably the hardest decision you'll make. I found a few recipes that have ben vetted by a bunch of...

    Best way to test flavors

    I usually throw in 2-3 drops of plain PG and vape 'till it's about dry. You can also rinse with water and air dry, but that takes longer.

    For those who aren't so scientifically inclined...

    Yup. In fact I did a little experiment when I first tried the coffee extraction. I made two side-by-side batches of the same coffee; 6grams of coffee and 20ml PG. Nuked 'em and gave them both hot water baths for 45min. I drained one though a paper coffee filter and one though a metal screen...

    OK, seriously, why does everyone gotta be a man?

    Whew. All day long I thought this thread had been started this morning and you'd been to and from a pub crawl by lunch :laugh:

    Credit Card Fraud

    So you click the "No" button? How do you know no means no? For that matter, the little closing "x" in the upper right corner might also be mislabled. FWIW, I don't click anything on pop-up windows. When I get one that won't close via right-click / close tab options, I open windows task...

    Nitecore I4 slides

    Probably any light machine oil will work. Vegetable oil, not so much :D I'd pull the slide down and look for any place that might capture or bind. Does the slide ride in a channel, or are there grooves on either side? In any case, less is better when you're oiling electronic items. Pull the...

    For those who aren't so scientifically inclined...

    I think he said that included back flushing. FWIW, he also mentioned one of these: a Buchner Filter. That's a little over the top for me right now, so I'm sticking with a couple of runs through a coffee filter. The fuel filter isn't a bad idea, but I'd be a bit concerned about oils and...

    Best way to test flavors

    FWIW, Vapor Joe, has posted a deal on 510 atomizers: http://.........blogspot.com/2013/03/sizzle-5-pack-joyetech-510-atomizers-995.html I bought a pack of these last time they were on sale and wish I had bought two. That said, I prefer the Phoenix for testing. As I've said before, take my...
