As an addendum, you all need to stop talking about the flavorings at osdiy! I was all set to make a moderate order through TFA for my diy essentials, but after all this talk about osdiy, I stopped over there, and now I have a cart going there too.

I'm also feeling a little *ahem* inadequate with my "small" stash of 25 or so 4oz bottles of flavors (for umm, err, baking, of course) and a smattering of 30ml and smaller sample sizes. Oh well there goes another paycheck, someone tell the kids they're going to need a pell grant when the go to college!

I broke down and got an SXK kayfun 5 Clone, I really dig it. So much so I got two more for the FDA Stash and a kayfun 5 mini. Between them and my SquapeRs that fulfills my MTL needs. Mostly I'm on my Boreas and Modfather but one just needs a kick back vape also.

The V5 has 4 air flow settings and I have no idea what all the outrage about it being. You can set it for barely any airflow at all.

Thank you for that, i was beginning to think I was crazy when I said the V5 was perfect for Mtl. It have no idea why everyone keeps saying it is geared more towards Dl. I now own five and plan on getting a few more. The perfect Mtl tank in my opinlon.

Now that's a flavor collection. I need to step up my game. I'm not prepped... :thumb:

How do you like that RY4 Double? I'm looking for some decent DIY recipes for an RY4. Post them if you've got em!
Love it, as do many in the TFA thread. I like it so much I mixed it at 0mg nic and 10% flavoring for my night time 0 nic vape. It is the first I have tried though. I just got some RY4 Asian today and have a few other RY4s in some of my shopping carts to try later.

It is called for in many of the recipes I wanted to try and seems to work well in some of the clones I am trying to make that I couldn't find a recipe for.

There is a dedicated thread for it, though not very popular, here - My first go with DRY4...

And this thread has quite a few RY4D recipes in it - The Flavor Apprentice Flavoring Thread

There may be some in this thread also - TPA/TFA Recipes only!

My fave one I have made so far, but I have a few others steeping with it:

Good Life Vapor Deadly Sin Clone v1 by kriga. Requires a good 3 - 4 week steep.

His v2 of that clone that smells/tastes almost as good after a shake n vape as the v1 does after a 4 week steep:

Here is my first go at cloning Super Charged Heaven RY2K since I couldn't find a clone. It tastes pretty good as a shake n vape but waiting a few weeks til I try a side by side with the original to see how close I got. I have a feeling I may need to up the ry4d a bit.

I have a few others I made/tweaked from the recipe site by searching that flavor that are quite good as well though not sure if they will become ADV for me yet or not.

Wow that was a very nice reply. I really appreciate you putting in the effort to do that for me. I saved everything and will buy the ingredients and take a whack at it when I get some cash available(might be another week or so). I'll be looking through the threads you directed me too.

Thanks again! :thumb:

Still home. Goes with the territory whether an OTR Driver admits it or not.

Plan is within 2 years for my own.

Thank you.

Same here.I did not make the switch to quit,i made the switch to find something more enjoyable,and possibly a bit healthier.I just got to the point that i could not stand the taste of cigarettes anymore,so wanted to get a change of taste haha.
The way i see it,i don't drink or do drugs,so nicotine and caffeine are my 2 vices,and i have no plans to give up either,they keep me happy haha.
Well yes, caffeine and nicotine are what make consciousness and coherent thought possible. Who would ever want to quit either one?!?!? That's crazy talk!

If you don't nurture your addictions one day they'll just BE GONE and then what will you do!?!??!? Your addictions love you, be kind and take care of them!

Same here. I switched to vaping as an alternative to smoking. It was never in my plans (still isn't) to quit vaping. I love vaping.

I've just added that statement to the top my DIY Recipe document. Could not have said it any better.

Well, I got my AW batteries for the ProVari today. I also got shipping confirmation from fast tech for the Kayfun Mini v3. Oddly, I still haven't gotten tracking on the ProVari, and it still shows processing on the site. *Shrug* it's not like I'm lacking for mods or toppers, but I sure would like to hold that dragon in my hands :D.

On a bummer note, looks like my card got hacked as well. The bank called while i was at work and said that there was a couple of questionable charges and they put a hold on my card.

I called them back when I got home thinking it was the charge at fast tech since its in China, but apparently someone tried to do two online orders at a Walmart in Arkansas (I live in PA). To PNC Bank's credit, the declined those and froze my card, and are sending out a new one.

I'm not saying that any of the vendors I used this weekend are to blame, but there seems to be a high amount of credit card fraud occurring around the purchase of vaping related items, which seems to be more then a coincidence. Fortunately, I suffered no real loss, other then waiting for a new card, but hopefully this trend doesn't continue.

Sounds yummy. What is the best cake batter? I have tried a few and didn't like them, weird aftertaste.

Lemon S goes with everything, almost. I love it with blueberry and sweetener, with other fruits and with meringue/pie recipe.
I have Flavor West for cake batter dip, I think I'll a bit of cream to it too :)

No way in hell is it a DL tank, that would be like saying that the Nautilus is a DL tank.

It's a good Tank, really liking the mini and may pick up a couple more for the FDA Stash. It really goes well with my 18350 tube with a 0.9 SS fused Clapton. Nice mellow and flavorful vape. Perfect for when I'm out and about.

Lucky you man. I'v never had a clone that worked properly. After I spent over £200 on clones from sxk, tobeco, bla bla bla... Everyone was janky, wobbly, leaky and considering I used to smoke £100 a week I thought I'd just invest in something decent. Well worth it.
I've got loads of those 2 a penny authentic dl tanks but you can see why they are £20
Compare it to an authentic kayfun, If you like
Whatever floats your boat, ime you get what you pay for
Well the clone i'm vaping on now cost $5.43 at Fasttech been using it over a year had it over a year. Same bell cap, sama O rings, samd screws.THR only thing i changed was tge Monster Mini V3 base for a lite plus V2 base because i wanted a Mouth to Lung vape again.

I got this because i almost killed my Silverplay nano on the bus. If i got this so i wouldnt care if i broke it and its still working great even the acrylic bell cap hasnt stripped the threads.

*Crosses Washington off "States I could see myself moving to" list*

Don't think it's going to be long before Nevada and maybe a couple others are the only one's left.
I loved Washington state but left 6 years ago.

That is real good. Every clone I've had has stripped threads. Been wobbly, either straight wobbling or wonky resistance, leaky and just something I wouldn't feel comfortable having on me when going out.

I'm on the lookout for pieces that are still expensive but it woulnt break my heart to misplace or break. I'm thinking erlprinz atm. It was like €40 brand new 2 years ago so if I can get one now...
I still want things that I love to use but perhaps not the £100 pieces. But I think I would accept the loss of a £50 complete setup. Hopefully it never happens but...
