I went to the mailbox yesterday after work and saw a large package! Excitement thinking that it was fasttech! Unfortunately it was Wizard Labs nicotine and flavoring LOL

In addition, I received another email stating ANOTHER order would be split, so that makes 6 orders floating around. Oh well, by the time they come it'll be a magnificent surprise :p Luckily, I told my friend that her eGos would be coming from China, so they'd be taking awhile!

Any vapemail for me is exciting, even just airflow controllers ;)

So did you get any new flavours in the order Lisa ??

I'm on my second day of my 4 day long weekend at the moment - so going through loads of juice. It's my Wife's birthday tomorrow, so we're going out for a meal later today. Probably go for a decent curry, cos we've not been for one for a while. She's got a full diary at the moment with her birthday, meal at her Sister's yesterday, out with me today, the theatre tomorrow with her Mum and out with some friends on Monday. Think she'll need a break after that lot :laugh:

Sorry, Terry - I was exceptionally busy at work, today. Many new tasks have been assigned and not the kind that others spend weeks doing that I can knock out in a day :p I am glad to have the work and be at a desk instead of at the front for 9 hours a day, dealing with patrons that everyone runs from :X

I do come by and catch up when I am able, but for the last few days I haven't been commenting much as I am still waiting on FT orders to come in, rotating my earlier FT purchases. and testing the bunch out =] I did find that my newly purchased FT Sentinel had an issue with the center pin that threads into atty :'( I had a Boge carto tank on it and noticed that it was crooked at one point. Ah well, the center pin moves about :'( I think I'll Gorilla Glue it tomorrow - once I have it in the exact position that I want it, of course :p

yes the sentinels do tend to be a bit tempremental don`t they ?

I have my V5 dripper on mine permenantly now, because of the thread issues. Hope you get yours sorted out.

It will be a while before I get them mate, all the money for the co-op hasn't been collected yet. So it will probably be a month or so before they get to me.

Leave it with me though Terry, I should be able to sort one out for you. Not sure on price yet, cos the postage charge hasn't been finalised yet. I'll let you know though mate. If you want to have a look at the reviews, it's called the Rocket.

Cheers ian, I will check them out on you tube later. :)

well i have been a very busy boy today.

i re-built 11 evod heads, it took me quite a while; but it is worth the effort as they should last me a few months now. I just used 3mm silica, and 32 gauge kanthal (cos the ekowool is too thick) for the evods.

I will just use the ekowool in my drippers me thinks.

Well, I unscrewed the top off of my Sentinel, pulled the pin out and cleaned it up - thinking I'd glue it in place. Once I got it apart, I found it only has a cap with threads and a copper pin below that that touches the battery and fits into the center of the threaded cap o_O Nothing to glue in place... I did find that pushing the copper pin up higher stops the wiggling about.

I just got nicotine and some champagne flavoring... nothing special. I am not that great with DIY, purchased juice always tastes better than my own LOL

Lisa the best thing to do is,

Take off your tank, unscrew the top cap, put in an 18650 battery in, then with the tank left off, screw everything back together.

This will push the pin up, into position. or if you reverse this method with the tank on it will push the pin down.

Terry's right. I've had to play around with the pin height in vivi novas too once they've been used a few times, cos they don't connect fully.

Cheers ian,

That looks really smart that, with a pretty basic build.

The main thing to watch out for (if it's anything like the KFL build) is the height of the wick from the deck, it needs to be just the right airgap so it doesn't affect the draw or the flavour. Plus if the wick is too long it can choke up the juice flow. With a KFL build you can generally get away with a thinner wick, the juice delivery system is that efficient.

I'll let you know when they arrive. I'll do a review of the RSST's too (ordered some spare tanks with those). The RSST's will arrive first :thumbs:

Well just got back from having a lovely curry with my lovely Wife - had to put that cos she was looking over my shoulder :evil:

Went to the "Copper Pot" at Sandbrook Park off the motorway at Rochdale. Not a cheap place, but the food is top notch. Had a chiken tikka chilli masala with extra chillies - lovely and hot, sore ring tomorrow though :ohmy::laugh:

Ian i have got a question about diy mate ?

I have got 160 ml of liquid here what i don`t like Tab blended, and gold and silver. could i add a concentrate to them to make them taste ok ?

If the flavours quite mild, you could add some extra concentrate to them to change it up a bit. But if they are already a strong flavour, adding a concentrate will just kill all the flavour. Maybe mix up a separate batch of DIY in fruit or caramel to a taste that you like, then mix some of the tab in with it. I know things like RY4 have caramel or something sweet added to them. In fact you can add a bit of vinegar or lemon juice to tobacco mixes, not sure what it does to the taste, cos I've not tried it. Have you tried mixing some apple or a sweet juice to the tab blend, might help.

DIY is a lot of trial and error, so just play around with a few different ideas and see what works :thumbs:

Whoo Hoo! Just a bit over an hour and I can go home =] I put a brisket in the oven this morning, but it'll be for the coming week as I like it to cook very low & slow. I'll be stopping by a sandwich shop to grab a couple for Tommy & I to eat this evening and then I intend to relax before the vape shows =] *yawn* I'm already tired! Perhaps I should make a bit of coffee or tea to keep me awake since I've fallen asleep before it's ended several times in a row now :'(

A whole week to cook brisket, that is a slow cook :laugh:

Grab a full pot of coffee Lisa, kick off your shoes and relax when you get home. You deserve it, the house work can wait a day or three.

Heh! I put the brisket on this AM and it'll be done this evening, so we'll eat it during the week BUT tonight we'll have hot sandwiches. Quick, easy, and no fuss.

Housework can wait? Ha! The apartment was cleaned yesterday, I did laundry before work today, and I only have Emmy to bathe sometime this weekend. Since the skies have been dark and cloudy, I expect us to get caught in the rain while on a walk, so I'll be giving her a proper hot bath once that happens LOL
