    Would I benefit from an upgrade?

    My mother is currently using Tritons and Tribeca. I have tried different liquids, but she only wants Tribeca. That being said, I would like her experience to be as good as possible. I have been looking at the new Halo products and wondered as to the benefits of upgrading. Since I don't smoke...

    Confused about color

    As some of you know, my mother uses Tribeca exclusively along with a Triton tank. Every day, in the past, as the tank gets lower and lower, the color of the e-liquid darkens. I recently changed the coil and ever since, the liquid stays the same color even down to .4ml, which is about as low as...

    DIY Liquid and DIY Magnetic Stirrer

    When I am mixing a new juice in a flask on a DIY magnetic stirrer, how long would you continue the stirring? Assuming the flask is sealed, I was thinking of perhaps an hour. Even that may be overkill. I don't know. I also heat steep and plan to do so after mixing.

    Storing Flavors

    If I get 4oz quantities of flavors, keep 1oz out and store the remainder. Can I freeze them for long term storage? If I can, would it be best to store in glass?

    Using twice the amount of juice?

    I have a friend who just switched sources of getting his juice. He got the same nicotine content, but now finds he is using almost twice the amount of juice he was before. He asked me what I though was causing this. My first thought was that the nicotine content in his "new" juice was not as...

    How rugged are Titan tanks?

    Now that I have successfully transferred Mom over to the Triton battery and tanks, my life has become easier. Usually one filled tank will last her the day. I have an emergency mini tank filled and ready to go should I need it. I've been cleaning the coil each week and alternating the Halo coil...

    Marlboro and Camel

    I have a friend who smokes Marlboro's and Camels. I was looking for DIY recipes that could approximate either or both of these. This is the only one I could find for Marlboro: Ry4 Dbl 10% Tobacco 7.5% (didn't mention what kind) Caramel 2.5% Any suggestions would be great!

    Triton Coil Change

    As you know, I am new at this. When I need to change my first coil in a Triton tank are there any secrets I should know? If it is full of liquid when the coil fails, do I just pour it out and change the coil. Do I need to make sure there is no liquid in the tank that can get in the threads of...

    Chances of getting addicted?

    Brief history: My elderly mother is a lifetime smoker and now lives with me because of dementia. I converted her to vaping because none in our home smoke. I am trying to switch her from Halo G6 automatic batteries to Halo Triton. She is having a devil of a time getting the "push the button when...

    Air travel

    In a month or two, Mom will be flying back to visit friends and family. When she left to live with me, she was still smoking cigarettes. I need to set up the easiest thing I can for my brother and sister to maintain Mom's vaping. Don't want her to go back to cigs. I am planning to send a bunch...

    Silly question about Triton Batteries

    If you forget the battery capacity on one of your Triton batteries, is there a way to determine this by size or markings?

    What to add to Tribeca Clone to chang it up some

    My Mom likes Tribeca and so do we, because of it's low odor offensiveness to us non smokers in a confined space. My wife has asthma and some of the "stronger smelling" tobacco flavors would trigger it. I was thinking of something like Apple or something else that's mild, but would offer Mom a...

    G6 and Triton USB Chargers

    Does anyone know the actual difference between the chargers? USB is 5 volts and from what I understand, the batteries in questions both charge to the same voltage. The only things I can think of would be limited current draw on one or the other or perhaps contact placement/alignment. Just curious.

    Cleaning Question Revisited

    I posted this in the clearomizer forum and got no replies, so I thought I would post it here since it is a Halo product. If you don't change flavors and the juice is very light, do you need to ever clean your mini tank? The reason I ask is that I use Halo's G6 Mini Tanks. I use Tribeca...

    Looking for something as inoffensive as Halo Tribeca

    Tribeca has been working well for us, since my elderly mother is the only smoker and when she vapes Tribeca, the resulting smell in a closed environment, like in a car, is not that offensive to the rest of us. We tried Torque and Prime and didn't like it. My wife has asthma and the smells...

    Another Cleaning Question

    If you don't change flavors and the juice is very light, do you need to ever clean your clearomizer? The reason I ask is that I use Halo's G6 Mini Tanks. I was cleaning them after about 7 fills with distilled water and then switched to vodka after reading several posts saying how good it was...

    I have searched multiple threads and forums for temperatures of steeping with heat. I've seen the following: Room Temperature Body Heat Temperature In a dark drawer temperature 93 Degrees Centegrade (Seems very hot to me) Hot water out of the tap Temperature Hot rice out of a microwave...

    Nicotine Quality - PG Base

    I am just getting into the DIY mixing and have noticed a great difference in pricing for Nicotine Liquid. Is there really a difference in them? Intellectually speaking, how much difference can there be if you are simply blending Nicotine with a base liquid to a certain strength. My untrained...

    Is this normal usage?

    Mom was going through a single carto per day when she first starting vaping. Equaling maybe 1ml per day. I switched over to the mini tanks because of the ease of refilling. Mom immediately went to two fills per day. Equals 1.5ml total. For the last week, her use has increased to 3 fills. Equals...
