Are you done stocking up?

[Haktuspit]

Really, the erlkonigin nano. I want it But I won't pay €127.50 for it though.
If it was changed a little. Maybe.

Over $100 for what looks exactly like a vivi nova, good call not to buy I don't need to know what it is.

These have a great form factor in dual battery mode.

Thanks for the updates. It did look like it would sit well on a desk in 2 batt mode.

Some good news for me. ecig.com issued me an RMA for the rx2/3 that won't work in dual battery mode and was having odd display issues. They told me there would be a 15% restock fee for any that I just didn't want and hadn't used so I decided to test them and they both work properly in dual battery mode. Just need to test them in triple battery mode and then send back the bad one for inspection and replacement. These have a great form factor in dual battery mode.

Congrats.

Yes Kayfuns are great. I LOVE em.
The ability to switch out the lite plus base for the Monster V3 base you can switch MTL or DL hits off a kayfun.

I second this. The KF gave me that menthol style throat hit. I blame the KF and Provari for keeping me off the cigs.

You are right but I'v got a kayfun 5 and that is €119 and I don't really like it that much. It's ok with a reducer but not worth £100. Imo none of these tanks are worth what they charge but every clone has been disappointing except rdas, They have been great. It's up to the company to charge what they want and for you to buy it if you choose.

If companies didn't have these ridiculous way out pricing schemes then there wouldn't be much of a clone business so I guess many have dug their own grave.

I do prefer them though, and I bet they'll last a lot longer than most clones. People disagree but I've had 3 kayfun v4 clones from the biggest cloning companies and the 510 connector on the atty stripped within a fortnight.

You'll be surprised to hear none of my authentics have done that.

You forgot sonething.

1. Kayfun was made long before the Nebula Wine.
2. There are a lot of Kayfun purists out there that would get their panties in a Twist if Svoemesto redesigned the Kayfun.

Remember all the hate about the Kayfun V4, and again with the Kayfun v5 because it had too much airflow for MTL.

This is just IMO, as our lungs, juice viscosity, devices, and mouth size sizers differ, but to me, KF5 does both MTL and open lung superb with great flavor. I see people say that the KT5 is only open lung, not for MTL, even some reviewers. I've tested MTL, tightest setting, and it's nostalgic to the Kayfun Lite experience years ago; Throat hit, vapor, flavor. Although, even on the widest airflow, I wish it had just a touch more, not too much, just a tad. Like a Tugboat wide open, or Petri V2. Those are my favorite airflows to date. Not suck the chome off a Harley airflow, but just slight restricted, so I can taste my juice.

All this and now I'v transferred the kayfun onto my Gus kiss and I'm cleaning the Paps. I don't work atm but this takes up all my day. How do you guys fit both in?

I have sent this pic in pm to mooch because I need his help.
What is this? Brand new AW 18490s. First day of use. Little black mark on the negative post of the paps and the battery. Is it micro arcing? Anything to be worried about?

Most batteries when used may show "carbon disposite residue".. especially mechanical users. Don't worry, just clean it off and use again, it's natural. I thought the same thing too but it happens regularly, there is this stuff "chemical" stuff you can put on your batteries so they won't do that.. I forgot what it was.. would be nice if someone knew, been wanting to get some to use with my crickets.

Omg. We will disagree here. What a horrible experience considering I paid double for that thing. I had to buy the reducer seperately . Ridiculous
If every China dude can pull out these 2 a penny tanks which all produce insane clouds and some, pretty good flavour. Why in the hell would you spend that much to achieve what can be achieved with £20!

Yeah, supply and demand, I get it. But it's silly to charge that much and pay that much for that kind of device when the market is absolutely saturated with those 'clouds bro' machines.

Thanks. Yeah I've cleaned it fine but it's never happened with my brass contacts and 25rs, only these new AW 18490 and the Paps. Thank you for the tips

Disagreeing is ok, you did it in a mature and constructive way. Props. I bought the KF5 (Svoemesto) for flavor, not clouds. And you're absolutely right Zutan, china makes $7 Petri clones and other cheaper stuff that get good cloudage and vapor. Is my authentic over priced? Yup. I think around $70s would be fair. But I bought it cuz I support Svoemesto, the Kayfun Lite was my first rebuildable atomizer and my first "I love to vape" experience. It was a no brainer to buy the KF5, for me anyways. And I usually use my cheaper gear when I'm out and about, I leave the Kayfun in my car or at home where it's safe from dings.

I agree. The kayfun lite was my first 'I love it' experience.
I think that was why I was so looking forward to the 5 just being an improvement on the lite as the 4 was a flop. Imo, it wasn't.
But like you I try to keep that tank safe. It's value seems to be held in the money that my mum and dad paid for it (birthday present), and the fact that it was a birthday present.
Apparently the mini v3 is good but I'm not keen on 19mm tanks on my 22mm mechs.

I know, I need to grow up. I'm a very young 27 year old

OMG, I love love love Lemon Sicily, had to make up a new recipe for it LOL! This is really good! I'm making up pics for all my fav recipes, makes it fun at mixing time

I added 1/2 part whipped cream to this and it is better, so recommend that modify

 

[bnrkwest]

OK, I think I saw somewhere back a page or so ago...that several more people had ordered from OSDIY recently. I ordered a few new flavorings from there to try, too.

Just made a little 6mL sample of 1 combination of their flavorings that I'm dripping right now. Can tell I'm going to be making a much larger batch of it soon, and ordering a bigger size of the new flavoring!

I've already been regularly buying the 4oz size of their Baked Cinnamon Roll (One Stop Flavor), that I use singly at 12% in my PG, VG, and Nic base. Since I ordered a sample size of the new Capella Blueberry Jam...I thought, why not try some of that mixed with my BCR to try for a sort of Blueberry Danish/Cinnamon Roll taste.

Used 6mL of my BCR I already had mixed up...and only 2 drops of the CAP BJ. OMG! It's terrific!

Thought maybe some of you might want to try it, too, if you ordered or already have those 2 flavorings.

It's a good thing OSDIY has their month long 15% off sale going on now!

Sounds great!

My first Gus mech mod showed up today from Greece. Free shipping and took well under 2 weeks.

Anyone looking for a reasonably priced high end mech should definitely consider Gus Mods. Great quality, great service and very well priced!

 

[phager]

So I sent an email to Provape to check on my Dragon, since I was worried that my card being compromised was causing an issue with fulfillment. Turns out the weekend left them totally swamped with orders and it's taking longer then normal to complete orders.

I'm happy to hear that they're still doing good volume in spite of the FDA. Like I said earlier, I'm not hurting for mods, so I'm not worried about the wait.

In other news, I was browsing around osdiy, and the DIY forum here and found out about the Real Flavors line of flavors. Dang it, now I have 35 items in my cart, ready to submit when my paycheck gets deposited on Friday!

Congrats bro

Gus is good.

I was just reading about a change in NM to include the term nicotine in describing and taxing tobacco products. By adding the term nicotine it would apply a tax of $.04 per mg/ml. So far this has not passed so guess they still don't have the wording right. But seeing that FDA has put an end to all vape gear sounds like in 2 years there will be nothing to tax anyway.

$0.04 per mg/ml. So a 30 ml bottle of 12 mg would have $14 in tax added?

Yes, there will be lots of cigalikes sold by BT with high taxes for the gov. Win win for them. Loss loss for vapers and would be vapers.

Most people simply don't realize the hungry, greedy, malicious intent states have when it comes to juice and gear. Pa passed their 40% tax but if NM's proposed $0.04 per mg/ml passed it would mean a $10.80 tax on 30ml of 9mg juice, $12.60 on 30ml of 12mg. A liter of 100mg liquid nic would have a $4000 tax added. Now consider how much of a price increase manufacturers will need to add to the price of juice to cover the half million dollar FDA product application costs then tack on another $10 for state taxes and what might the price be for 30ml of juice? Cha Ching! Not bad for a "free" country...

At $4k per liter the contents of my freezer would be worth more than my house....
