Is there a flower garden in America without a Gardenia in it?

Uh, only all of the ones in the northern half of the country? :(

I found a local vendor who sells anyvape so bought a davide glassomizer to try. Fingers crossed it works ok. :)

Still my absolute favorite. About the only reason that I use my nautilus is because I already feel silly enough about spending that much on it.:ohmy:

After trying both the dual coils and the BVCs in the Davides, I ended up taking the adapter off and sticking to at least 1.8 ohm single coils. That's my tootle puffing style. The Davides have a fairly airy draw, seem to never leak, and just work. Though when you take them apart for cleaning, do it over/in a fine sieve. There are these itty bitty o-rings on the center tube...:blush:

Like a Cadillac Lemozine :)
ohhhh...

I'm afraid that may be part of the reason there's no real "gardenia" ejuice, most of the bigger ejuice makers seem to be up north somewhere; maybe they have no idea how yummy a gardenia smells...? But also why I'm surprised that Heather's Heavenly doesn't offer it.

And whoever it was who posted that about gardenia and jasmine -- they smell nothing alike. To me, jasmine is a bit sharpish, in a good way, the way lavender is sharpish, sorta, whereas a gardenia is a much softer smell, almost buttery. They may be closely related, but their scents are quite different.

Ok, Tootlers, a question.

A very generous member (Hi Sean!) PIF'd me an iS 30. I need to get a 510-Ego adapter for it though.

I see 2 styles, one, like the ELeaf factory one with the knurled disk at the bottom, and one without any disk.

Is one preferable to the other and if so, why?

The ones with the knurled disk are easier to put in -- something bigger to hold while you thread it in -- but the other ones are easier to take out; I end up having to use my needle-nose pliers to loosen the knurled one, to get it out.

Other than that, I really don't see any diff between them.

ETA: if the tank you put on top is of smaller diameter than the knurled disk, those knurled ones look better, like a stepped platform rather than the tank just rising vertically from a perpendicular surface.

I have both and don't notice any difference. I think its about aesthetics. If using on something like a mod the wider base gives a bit more stability but looks a bit weird on a spinner type.

I can understand the Gardenia being tough to do. It also matters how Strong it is too.

When I was young and we lived in Ho-lando, we had Gardenia bushes all around the house and always had cut Gardenia blooms
inside. I had a bush outside my BR window. I love Gardenias, but sometimes when the whole bush was solid white with blooms
and the breeze would come across the bush into my BR it'd be so strong you'd want to gag.

I never have that reaction to gardenia scent; it actually makes my salivary glands start up, like it's time for dessert. :D

I haven't either, but everytime I smell one, I want to! That scent makes me want to just bury my face in the flower, just go glutton-crazy on the thing. :D

Smell is important to your taste sensation. If you block your nose you loose most of your flavour. We have a couple of folks back home that have no sense of smell (from birth) and they rely on eliquids that are made to give mouth or tongue sensation.

I can't cope with the floral scents in eliquids and once in my nose everything is tainted.

Not trying to be a debby downer - nor stop a very instructive and informative discussion, however I think it's time to rename this thread . . . The RBA/RDA and How to rebuild coils . . . So "Tottle Pruffer's" can achieve "Cloud Nirvana" . . . JustSayin' . . . ;)
The GS series are not RBAs or RDAs. There is a lot of interest to TPs for rebuilding coils. Some do it for flavor and others to save money or just because. It ain't like we're talkin about water heaters are something, :)

Right, we'd never do that. :D

The cost, and the great flavor and throat hit are why I like to build my own coils; with my kayfuns, if I mount the coils up high, I get outstanding TH, as well as great flavor, which is why I've been a kayFan for a year now, and own 4 of them -- they're so simple, and work so well. And my Magma is just as good for both flavor and TH, if not even just a smidgen better -- but it's a leaky little beast, so I mainly use it for tasting new stuff -- really excellent flavor production from the Magma.

This chica's on a 3-day weekend (again!) I believe tomorrow is build coils and make juice day. Gonna work on my kayfuns (all sizes) and maybe the STM RBA deck..... The "pancake" wicking on the KF mini was not as lucrative as hoped. I think part of this deals with the height of the coils with respect to the location of the juice channels....

Oh well, the beauty of vaping also being a hobby :)

Waves at GT Morning fellow Aussie. :p
'Morning XX :)

ETA: Are you using the rebuildable heads in that eGo-ONE atty? They are much better, especially if you use the rayon method ... I'm using a 1.4Ω coil in mine @ 11.5W

No just the head it came with. I don't have any of the other coils and because it was a freebie I didn't want to buy anything until I had a chance to try it. I dunno about it. Its cute and I like how it feels but ........... Not enough to change from the other things. That's my benchmark. I give everything a three day trial. If I keep picking it up then I will tinker but if at the end of three days (honeymoon new toy period) it mainly just sits there... I will put it away.

I have another coming with a different order. Do you want it.
