    Nice! Unfortunately, I have sworn off shopping for the time being. But I am with you in spirit. I would love one of those.

    Same I just took a look at my credit card bill. :shock:

    Gonna be tough to pay this off before my special interest rate expires.

    No new things for me, but I will be looking at parts for my existing things pretty soon. Mostly O-rings for tanks. Might need some help from you guys wrangling them up from fasttech I have such a hard time shopping that site.

    Part of me thinks the extra set of o-rings the tanks come with should be plenty. Another part of me thinks no matter what I do they're going to rot out in 40 years.

    I have never ordered from them(centralvapors) before but found a tesla punk 86w that I've been wanting for a long time at a good price there and a coupon for 25% off with VAPOR25. Hopefully I didn't make a mistake ordering there.

    Only shopped there once. They sent me 10 coils instead of 10 packs of 5. They were out of stock by the time I received them, they refunded the difference right away. That was lucky for me because they weren't authentic coils. I read some reviews after that and there were quite a lot of comments about non-authentic stuff, which may be why their prices are so low. When it arrives I would check whether you got the real thing.

    I've used some of the thicker orings from 3f to refit drip tips. The Hellbeast I'm running, and my Intake, have a "loose" 510 dt connection, so a wider ring is needed to snug them in.


    The brass Armor Prime has been running solid. I confirmed that the change in battery level color, going to yellow, is at 3.6v, same as the black AP. The brass isn't too slippery, and the engraving adds grip. Subjectively the vape off the AP is the same as off my Skullkandy Alchemist (which has silver contacts) so the mod resistance should be pretty low.

    On the gt ccell, I've bought them to use on the Hellbeast and Cerberus tanks.

    Just curious, are you using yours (or going to use yours) on a hellbeast or something else?

    I'd use them in a Hellbeast if I had one but I've accumulated a variety of tanks on clearance, most well under ten bucks, that take those TFV8 style coils. If the Hellbeasts showed up on deep clearance I'd probably pick up a couple but I'm pretty set with these:

    Joyetech Procore Remix
    Wotofo Flow
    Wotofo Flow Pro
    Geekvape Illusion
    Vaporesso NRG
    Eleaf Ello
    Vaporesso Cascade
    Artery AT22
    Smok Big Baby (I know, it's Smok, but I got it in a Procolor kit for $10)

    I've also stocked up on a variety of these coil styles too, mostly mesh and ceramic. Spare glass is here or on the way for tanks I have in >1 quantity and I've got a couple of the Hellbeast RBA heads. I'm currently hunting down more 22mm tanks that take these coils for my smaller mods.

    I want a variety and interchangeability (is that a word?) in the future, even though I'm a happy low wattage MTL vaper 90+% of the time. One of these big coils lasts for months in my limited use but I may want to do more of this clouding in the future and doubt they'll be available.

    In the meantime, hammering away on my Vision Nova 2.5/Provari 2.5 combo, 2/3 PG, smooth minty menthol all day. Tasty custards and caramels get cloudy with a Wotofo Flow Pro at home, a vape dessert.

    One Search is NOT often useful for vape purchases...but...for most other purchases (eg. Christmas)...I've found it QUITE handy...

    It searches for the "best" prices on Amazon vs. Ebay vs. Walmart...(and saves me A LOT of time)...

    Eightvape has them for $13.95 ($18.95 less a $5 coupon): Hellvape Hellbeast Sub-Ohm Tank They only have gold and purple left.

    When they first had the price drop, we all bought out the black. They had glossy black and matte black (I got 2 of each). But the gold looks pretty cool.

    This is the exact opposite of what I had thought anyone in power would recommend: Gottlieb, former FDA head, calls for a full ban on pod-based e-cigarettes

    Ban disposable pods, but keep refillable tanks, RDAs, RTAs....

    It's like Bizzaro World.... not too long ago they were calling for bans on refillables... Pretty sure Romney even created a bill to ban them.

    Sorry for asking but on some things my memory is about as long as a toothpick, does anyone put their 8 oz. bottles with the cone cap of nic on its side in the freezer without leaking? If so I can cram another liter in there. :)
    I did. So far I see nothing.

    Need to put a flavor order in soonish. I think I can easily make (2) 100 ML bottles but after that I'm pretty low.

    Shipping is kind of high at Capella (only flavor I use) but it doesn't increase much for a gallon compared to a 16 oz bottle. Also there is a big savings on going with the gallon.

    What do you guys do to store flavors long term? A gallon will likely last me 29 years... maybe I should just get the 16 oz bottle.

    You will always be able to get flavors so I wouldn't worry too much about that... A year or two supply is probably good. Plus the jury is out on shelf life and some will probably settle/separate over time. Most say not to freeze them.

    EDIT: Disclaimer: I vape unflavored... so I am no expert.

    I have seen manufacturers say no light away from heat. Heard people here say don't freeze.
