    Suggest an inexpensive custard flavor?

    Hey all, so I'm looking for an inexpensive custard flavor (say, $20-/100ml). I just got Killer Kustard in the mail, it needs time to steep but based on initial tasting I can tell it's going to be great. Before I pick up another bottle or two, I wanted to see if there are any other custards or...

    Mods with Mitec button?

    So, I'm back at it again! It being looking for a new mod. I've always been a fan of clicky buttons, but never really got around to purchasing a mod with one (borrowed my friend's Hex Ohm and fell in love with the button). Are there any inexpensive VW box mods that use a Mitec button, or...

    Vaporesso Target - Educate me?

    So, in deciding between the Reuleaux 2/3 (or 200s) and the Target, I chose the Target. The Reuleaux is great, but slightly more expensive, a tad bulky, and I'm not a fan of 3-battery mods. Anyhow, I did some digging around, and apparently there are a few variants of the Target. I've seen the...

    New mod suggestion?

    Hey guys and gals! So, I'm certainly not new to vaping (been vaping for ~5 years, and haven't touched a cigarette then). However, I haven't picked up a new mod in some time. I got into the whole Temp control craze a year ago, but I'm pretty much indifferent towards it now. Anyhow, I'm looking...

    Your favorite custard recipe?

    Hey everyone, I'm looking to mix a batch of custard. Unfortunately, I've yet to come across a recipe that I absolutely enjoy. The standard 15% Cap VC and 2% dulce de leche isn't all that great -I think the DDL kills it for me. I'm looking for something that's smooth and creamy, but still has...

    Apparently NT's vanilla base loves heat

    Some of you may know that awhile ago I posted a thread discussing how I couldn't really taste 3 of NT's top sellers (CLS, ACB, and Strawnilla). Well, I tried for months to get the juices to "pop" but couldn't. Finally, one day a buddy of mine gave me his remaining 10mls of CLS. I have a full...

    Next pair of batteries?

    Hey guys, I just picked up my first parallel box this morning. I've dedicated a pair of VTC4s to the box, but will need a back-up pair for when the VTC4s are charging. I'm hoping you guys could recommend a pair based on the following: -I'd like something that's going to last long, relative to...

    Steeping in glass v. plastic.

    There has been some debate on whether steeping times vary based on the material of the bottle. My question is, do you guys notice a difference? I myself have, but it's not a good one. For instance, I decanted 5ml of Nicoticket's CLS and let it steep, while the remaining 15ml steeped in the...

    Running a dual 18650 box with single battery?

    Hey guys and gals! I haven't touched any of my mechs in some time - temp control became more to my liking. I decided to pick up a mech box, since I've never owned one. The problem is, all of the single 18650 boxes are relatively small and uncomfortable in my hands. The dual 18650 boxes are...

    Twisted ribbon and ni200?

    Has anyone tried twisting flat/ribbon wire with ni200? The particular combination I am talking about is 28g NI200 with .5mm flat wire. A buddy of mine made one this morning, and seems to be enjoying it. Would that combination be safe, both for the mod and user? I believe his coil came out to .9.

    Milkman clone recipe?

    Hi everyone. I'm interested in making a clone of The Milkman. I found a few recipes online. However, I would like to mix a batch using a recipe that has been used and enjoyed by other members. Have any of you had success with one of the many Milkman recipes? If so, which one?

    Elix Vapor?

    Have any of you ordered from these guys lately? A few months back, I saw nothing but bad reviews regarding both their juices and customer service. I'm wondering if things have changed.

    Sigelei 75W V. IPV D2

    Considering the fact that neither of these mods are owned by a large number of people, I'd still like to get your guys' opinion on them. I'm considering purchasing one or the other. Are there any features, on either, that stand out? To be honest, I just want something with decent battery...

    Need help picking a flavor for a friend

    I had a bottle-related issue with my last 2 Nicoticket orders. The guys and gals at Nicoticket were kind enough to resolve the issue; great CS if you ask me. Anyhow, I've got plenty of juice, and I am in a pretty good mood. That said, I've decided to grab a 60ml bottle for a buddy of mine. He...

    Where's your sweet spot?

    I've been building .16-.19 ohm coils, vaping at 14-15W, ever since I started temp control vaping. I've heard that others get a more consistent and satisfying vape with a .12 ohm coil. I'm curious, what's everyone building and vaping at? I'm interested in: Resistance (single v. dual) Diameter...

    Mech Sauce v. Vape Wild

    I've been ordering from Vape Wild for quite some time now. After trying about 20 of their juices, I was ready to pull the trigger on 2 of my favorite flavors, in 120ml. Recently I came across Mech Sauce. The flavor profiles and reviews make this a tempting buy. For those of you who have tried...

    Hit or miss with temperature control

    I've been using temperature control devises for a little over 3 months now. Unfortunately, I've been having mixed results. I've used a VF and rDNA 40, building with both 28 and 30g wire. Sometimes temp control will function as intended, others it will work for awhile, then burn the cotton, and...

    rDNA 40? Wait? Or something else?

    I've wanted an rDNA 40 ever since they were first released...heck, I wanted VS's DNA 30 when it was first released, but opted for a Hana clone since it was much cheaper. Now that the rDNA 40 is $130...its in my price range. What do you guys think? Go for it...wait it out...or get something else...
