Do you have a link you can share? I have an Igo-L and I find that I do not like the vape on it. It is a totally different draw and I get a sore throat from the way I have to use it, so it is in the emergency vape drawer and not being used for daily use any longer.

I know what you mean about the Igo-L. It has a very tight draw and a small air chamber. I suppose it could be helped by drilling out the air hole, but I'm not going to bother.

I've actually found that I don't like dripping that much. I find myself getting vaper's ADD and switching flavors too much. Before you know it I have sensory overload and nothing tastes that good. The Kraken, especially, and the KFLs produce close enough to dripping flavor while having tanks for convenience and continuity.

Yeah depends though. When I went the DIY route, I found that most fruits only took a week to steep and after more than a month the flavor diminished. Not true for tobaccos as most of those take sometimes up to a month or more to develop. That held true with some of the best flavorings out there. I can vape Smooth Criminal FOOB, but prefer it with a two week steep. Some of the fruits are even better to me FOOB than with a steep. It's all subjective.

I agree with you. I tend to refer to longer steeps because I vape mostly tobaccos and teas. I am not a fruit vaper. I keep trying them and they just do not satisfy me. I find the fizzy vapes need to be vaped right away because the fizzy goes away fairly quickly. I seem to have trouble with the cakes and the cheesecakes; they never taste right to me no matter how short or long I steep them.

I am just now starting to do some DIY juices, using TPA flavors and Wizard Labs nicotine. I am hoping to make some flavors that I can power through on my R91 since it is a juice hog of stupendous proportions. (Or maybe I am the juice hog?) I never believed people when they posted that they vaped more than 10ml in a day. Now I do. I do not know how people can afford it - so I will make some of my own juice and use the Ahlusion for one tank a day and dripping.

I do have a KFL, but i like my little Igo-L. I use 28g wrapped around German Silica 4 wraps or so, it comes out at 1.3 ohms.. no draw issues. I have the stock hole. It might be just a tad tight but I prefer it that way. Too much air hurts me the most (Trident V2)

An easy 10ml a day for me! I keep 2 drippers wet and that's not even at that low of resistance. I try to keep my duals at around 1.0 ohms still they suck up the juices..lol

Ok guys I just completed my first order! Thanks to your suggestions I purchased Smooth Criminal, Rick's Request, and Caramel Pear Black Tea. I'm guessing with the holiday coming up Monday I will be waiting a while, but from what I have read here it will be worth it.

These are all long steepers (4–6 weeks+) for most people. Just make sure that you have other juices to vape if you don't care for them fresh.

Great and thank you. So you are a pool shark. So is my better half. APA league play for almost 30 years. He is into the bank shots and loves to use defensive plays to position himself for the match. We will talk later. I play horrible pool but can read the table pretty good from watching DH play all these years. Good luck with your match.

I almost exclusively dripped on 510 attys since I started vaping. It gave me something to keep my hands and mind busy so I could drop a 2 pad 46 year habit. I also used evods but did not like the muted flavor. I still love my 510 attys and dripping but I am infatuated with my R91 and the new bent to flavors I thought I knew. Some do not taste that different but some are like I am tasting elements in them for the first time. A different perspective.

I am lazy. I am finding I enjoy the coil building, but the cotton ball wicking is being a challenge to me. I am having major problems getting the amount of cotton right. I want to explore using that Sephora cotton makeup pads, I forget the name of the cotton. Maybe that will make wicking easier for me.

I also have a bunch of 510 attys I love for tasting flavors. The cotton pads are Koh Gen Do. A friend is sending me some to try. I will report how I like it. I have so much Peaches and Cream yarn and organic cotton balls (getting the amount of cotton right is a PITA) I hesitate to order more cotton. But since I will be able to try it without an investment, I will let you know. Maybe I will crochet a pillow and stuff it with cotton. :laugh: :blink:

I "learned' that I loved Ahlusion in just that way. In the beginning I allotted myself a certain amount to spend a month. In like the third month I bought 2 bottles of AHL, STR/Banana cream and Carl Mal Mambo along with other things from other vendors. Did not like anything. I felt like where is the Caramel in this Mambo and the SB cream was just blah. Keep buying other stuff and not liking anything and got to where I forced myself to vape some of the things I bought before I would allow myself to buy more. By the time I got to the Straw/Banana Cream it had aged 3 weeks and it was like OMG WHAT IS THIS? How and when did this get SO GOOD?

There have been several Ahlusion flavors that I did not like when fresh out of the mail. The most notable was Smooth Criminal. After all the praise that was heaped on that flavor and the fact that my dripping mentor loved it, I waited patiently, forever and a day, for it to steep. After 6 weeks it is heavenly.

Most all improved significantly. A couple are just not to my tastes. I find that many new vapers do not have the patience or the knowledge to wait for a long steep or do not have the luxury of a juice stash to be able to do so. Plus, some vapers are looking for different things from their juices. A cinnamon red hots vaper may not appreciate something like a delicate tea or a fruit cream or layered flavors.

Once I found the Koh Gen Do I used my cotton balls to pack some juice I sent to a friend.

There you all are! Man these threads move fast. Before I get buried just wanted to say hello to those who may remember me. Been offline for quite some time but I see some new yummies on the menu.:)

Zelphie! Like old times here now. If you're available, come visit at Ahlusion next Tuesday. Mo and Mann -- you too. All other local A+ers should come and meet up as well. We can drip juice till we get headaches, and bother Wlad asking about Lemon Vanilla Cake.

Ah Lisa,

Beat me to the Celery comment. Posting a hello so this thread shows up in "my posts". Just received a re-order of Orange Nocturne, and 2 new flavors for me, CWW and Pomegranate Tea. Can't wait to try them.

Hey Louis! Nice to see you. You know, Tuesday would be a good day to fire up that big bike and cruise north a half hour or so.
