    Recommend a new Nicotine base supplier for me

    I've been using Vapers Tek Nicotine for awhile since it didn't have a nasty taste I got from Nude Nicotine, but I've noticed the last few batches I've got from them are irritating my bronchial tubes pretty bad (chest pain). If I switch over to a local vape shops stuff, the problem goes almost...

    eCigExpress flavorings?

    Has anyone ever purchased flavorings from eCigExpress and had them taste bad or off? I got some Flavor West flavorings and they taste like plastic - even smell like plastic. Others I ordered seem fine. Just wondering...

    What was bad about the base?

    I replaced my Nude Nicotine base (which was extremely peppery, made me short on breath, and imparted a odd flavor to all my juices - and yet was clear) with VapersTek, and is 100% better. Clean tasting, very little peppery hit. My question is this: What was in it that was causing me to be...

    Quick Survey for Juice Pricing

    Hey guys, I was wondering if you have a moment you could take a quick survey about something my local B&M is doing. They've decided to cancel a promotion for if you bring back your original bottle, you get 50% off the price Mon, Wed and Fri. It was a long running promotion and was cancelled for...

    Hey guys, I was wondering where I can find some long (like 3-4 inches or more) 12 or 14 gauge blunt needles - it's a PITA trying to get PG/VG out when the bottle is almost empty. Thanks!

    Bad batch of something?

    Hey guys, I ordered my Nic, PG and VG from Nude. Every batch I make has a peppery harsh throat hit, tastes off, and is also making me very short on breath. Doesn't matter which flavors either. I'm mixing at 50/50 15mg nic, source is 50/50 50mg. Everything else I have no problem with. I am...

    What to use to clean with?

    Hey guys, I'm wondering what you all use to clean your mixing utensils after your done making a batch (if you reuse). I've been using Distilled Water (Distilled because tap has minerals in it you don't want in your eLiquid) and just running it through the syringes and needles, but I'm not sure...

    What is the right wattage?

    I'm a bit confused on the wattage thing, specifically range or setting. I see devices that are very popular that have only 20 or 30 watts out (DNA's). So, are those first generation low-powered devices, or is up to 30W plenty for a dripper? I am wondering if there is a recommended wattage...

    Confused on PG/VG for Flavor in EJuiceMeUp

    Some of TPA's flavors are in a PG or VG, or both, base. But, they do not tell you the percentage. Further to that, What, if anything, should I enter in eJuiceMeUp in the Flavor column for PG/VG, or just check 0% for these? A little confused on this one. Thanks!

    First Batch newbie: Some questions

    Well, I dived in last night and made my first 10mL test batch. My nic, PG and VG all came from Nude Nicotine. My flavoring was Western Blend by FA.

    USA vs China Kanthal

    I just purchased and received some USA-made Kanthal A1 from kidneypuncher.com (Rip Tripper's favorite). I was using some Kanthal from my B&M vape shop that I know must be Chinese (has that font all chinese stuff uses & cheap packaging). When I put the new USA Kanthal in my Plume Veil the flavor...
