    Need Some Advice

    I never had an issue with either one cuz' I never used them. One, they are expensive for being a clearomizer and two, I went to cartotanks to get more flavor. Cartotanks served me well and I still use them but I have since gone into rebuild mode and have revisited some clearo's. Even being...

    I've been itchin'...

    Hello, welcome, and congrats on making the switch! You do have some nice gear keeping you off the smoke. The only thing I changed from my Provari and other apv's to was the mech side of things and rebuilding. It took me a year or more to do it but I'm there, :). It really is quite fun and opens...

    Mixing tool, or just shake or stir?

    When I add all my flavors I give them a good 1 minute shaker prior to adding base and/or nicotine. Once I add the base I give it another 1 minute vigorous shake and then let it rest. After that I just shake it for a minute whenever I think about it for the first couple of days and leave it be.

    Steeping Times for Fruits

    Steeping/aging can be affected by your pg/vg ratio so it may be their ratio is more pg based. Being thinner, pg is easier to mix and disperse the flavor. I understand that some flavors really do need to age before coming out. I haven't tried peach or just plain vanilla so I can't answer for that...

    Need help choosing a mod

    You may be on to something there, I was reading up on the 5 senses trying to figure this out and our sense for salt is like our sense for bitter and sugar after awhile. The brain can't tell which taste to distinguish with too much of any aroma/taste except for bitter, we can always taste bitter.

    Need help choosing a mod

    Do you have any sinus issues going on now txskimo? If so that could be a major factor in not getting any taste. I found this quote on the Mayo Clinic site, "Because our sense of smell plays a critical role in the appreciation of flavors, loss of our sense of smell frequently gives the perception...

    Is polishing off patina ruining your MODS?

    There's a video I watched on youtube on how to polish your brass mod: https:// How to polish your Mod - YouTube ,and since I have arthritis in my hands and can't do it by hand the method shown works like a charm. It's crazy easy and works great. My mechs looked like old pennies and now are as...

    Vaping headaches...

    When I first started I got those headaches and a rash, too much pg. I can only go as low as a 50/50 mix with pg.

    iClear 16 - How much am I really smoking?

    1.06 isn't much. I know they told me my cartridges were equivalent to a pack of smokes but I went through 2/day at 18mg and they probably held more than 1.06ml. I really don't know the answer but I found this on an Ejuice review site: The average experienced vaper considers 1ml of eJuice to...

    I need a honest answer, Please!? Cotton wick change.

    The cotton pretty much starts to degrade over time so I'd think it'd be time for some new stuff.

    How many apv?mods do you use per day?

    I have way too many but I like it that way cuz' I have way too many toppers as well! I like having different flavors in each, since I DIY my juice I have plenty of different flavors on hand. It keeps things interesting. I like rebuilding too and each on of them make the juice take on a different...

    Is polishing off patina ruining your MODS?

    I look at it like this: what's the lesser of two evils? ugly patina or losing your etching? I'm gonna look into how to keep my nicely polished mech shining like new without multiple polishings, Kanthal you've made me curious! Ps. Found this: Look for lacquer made for metals. Apply three to...

    Good to know MrPlink, I'll be checking those out! You may be suffering vaper's tongue, yeah I know you know. Your taste buds rejuvenate every 10-14 days and there's a reinervation period before the new one's start working, about 2-3 days. This will depend on what you put in your mouth. If you're...

    MVP and Tobbaco questions

    If you know the ohm's, you can check this on the MVP2, just add +2 and that will be your voltage. You can adjust it up or down if it's too strong or too weak. Seven watts is a good place to start at if you want to go that route.
