    Mint flavoring suggestions?

    So, I'm working on a new liquid and I fully expected the mint to come through pretty heavily so I went light on it. I've been experimenting with making cocktail flavored e-liquids and you can't have a mojito without mint. So, I've been pretty pleased with all the TFA flavorings I've used so far...

    Kraken RBA and cotton yarn

    So, I just picked up a Kraken RBA and built it with a single coil on SS mesh. It vapes great in that it makes a huge amount of vapor but I'm getting a metallic taste from it. I've washed it with hot water, soaked in grain alcohol and have even go so far as to build it again with cotton yarn...

    How do you inhale/ exhale?

    I've been toying around with different techniques today to try and get the most flavor out of my vapor. I have found that different "styles" are yielding different results. I started by taking a typical cigarette type drag from my protank 2. I'm currently vaping strawberry lemonade from the...

    I'm just gonna come out and say it...

    With all the what to do about state and federal governments wanting to add legislation for electronic cigarette devices, we all need to decide where we stand. I, for one, am all for limiting sales to minors. That being said, I don't think we need any sort of law or regulation, state, local or...

    The long awaited Fasttech package. IT'S HERE!!!

    So, I place a one item order from Fasttech on December 10th. It finally arrived! It's a Kamry X6 with a carto tank. The device itself is a very simple VV. 5 clicks to change voltage modes from 3.2-4.5 volts if I remember correctly. LED color changes to indicate voltage. Red, purple or blue...

    Fasttech shipping inquiry. Chinese providers in general.

    So, I placed an order with Fasttech on December 10. It's scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. I should mention that it's a fixed battery so I'm thinking that 26 days with all the strange regulation on the importation of batteries isn't all that bad. I'm thinking that turnaround time on packages...

    Chasing that perfect grape. I need some help.

    So, I've been chasing the perfect grape juice recipe for a little bit. I've been digging a grape juice that I get at my local B&M and while I don't expect the guys to give up their recipe, they did tell me that it's nothing special but it is two different grape flavorings in the mix. So, I've...

    Was thinking about...

    Was thinking about using one of my top coil vivi novas as a makeshift dripper until I get my vapemail. Has anyone done this before? If so, with what sort of results? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So what's the lowdown on mech mods?

    I'm very curious about this. It seems like they are out there to give more, unrestricted power to the user who is forever chasing bigger, tastier clouds. So what is it? Why? How? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    My first beef with LorAnn flavoring...

    So, gave it my first shot at DIY today. Went with a 3 mL mix as a tester and haven't as of yet vaped it but it smells delightful! 16 mg/mL, 50/50 just for flow sake. At any rate, LorAnn uses WAY TOO MUCH coloring. I need to find something that doesn't use any coloring or very little at least...

    I need a good rebuildable dripper on the cheap.

    Hey everyone, I'm looking for just what the title says. Cheap dripper, rebuildable. I'd prefer something cheap yet reliable and would prefer to get it stateside. I mostly just want it for testing my DIY juice. What do you all think?

    Standard vape, what do you know about them?

    I stumbled across Standard Vape from the Zamplebox Facebook page. I did a little more digging and found the makers of them, Savuervape. They have several lines of juice and Standard is one among many of them. I found nearly all of them very intriguing but, at $22 a crack for 30 mL I'm a...

    Daily vape rotation

    I know I'm not the only one who does this. During they daytime, I vape around 4-6 mL of heavy fruit flavors. My two normals are a really good strawberry and a grape that's like grape soda. More grape than strawberry by far. At night while I'm winding down, I switch to mellower creamier...

    Questions regarding resistance wire

    I'm sure that someone has answered this somewhere but wading through the massive amount of information here is sometimes impossible. At any rate, my question should be pretty straightforward. I would assume that as the number of the gauge gets smaller, the gauge gets bigger, right? That should...

    DIY coils for the win!

    Took my first crack at making my own coils for the vivi nova tonight. I picked up a spool of 30 gauge kanthal from the local shop on Saturday and stopped at Hobby Lobby for a skein of peaches n cream ecru cotton yarn. Total investment was about $5. That was for 10 feet of wire and 360 feet of...

    APV Questions

    So, I'm contemplating stepping up my game a little bit and picking up an APV. My question is which direction do I go. I've looked at Provaris and while I really dig them, and the fact that they are American made, I don't really think they fit my needs. I have also been totally digging on the...

    It is definitely time

    So, I went down to the local B&M to load up on some supplies. I picked up 50 mL of juice, assorted flavors of course but 3 tried and true ones that I can't put down. I also got a couple of coil heads. Total spent, $35. So, when I got home, I sat down and loaded a shopping cart/ wish list on...

    Good news/ bad news

    The good news is, I fixed the nasty burnt taste that I was getting from my vivi nova. I'm pretty sure I scorched the wick when I dry burned it. The bad news is, I'm down a coil head. No big whoop really, I bought a 5 pack with my last vape mail order and am planning on rebuilding the old ones...

    Menthol Juice

    So, I'm trying to set my sister in law up with a nice kit for a Christmas gift. I got some really easy, straight forward gear for her to get started with, a couple of 1100 mAh batteries with ce4 clearomizers. I don't want her to have to fuss too much with it because I think if she does she'll...
