I still have to get those DIY supplies and start my stock up on pg/vg/nic @sketchness @bnrkwest @Sugar_and_Spice -.- IK, I'm slacking, I still plan on having my very first Tractor Supply experience, lol. Can't wait to start making some juice and start learning from you guys here soon. Unfortunately, instead of buying those supplies, I instead, purchased my 4th authentic Tugboat and the weekend went by so fast I had no time go leave the city and go to that store. But on the bright side, I've completed my Tugboat collection! Or until they come out with an all gold one.. which I would love!

Brother i mean do disrespect.

BUT every day you delay is one day closer to heavy taxation, or unavailability.

    Top filled are wonderful if they work. I just havent seen one work without pouring a tank of juice all over my mod and hand

    While some work better than others, it is possible to refill without leaks. (or minimize the leakage) Side fill tanks like the Lemo2 or OBS Crius are more forgiving but all need to be inverted (drip tip down on a tissue and then drip tip up) to recreate the vacuum at the top of the tank so all the juice does not run out.

    Top fill can also (depending on how thin or thick your juice is) make wicking more challenging. To little wick and you may have a very moist tissue while inverting the tank or the juice will run out before you have a chance to close the top. To much wick and you may have ineffective wicking (choking the juice flow) leading to lame or dry hits.

    It's a flavor RDA; US made, it's got the 'Merican flag on it, not expensive, good size post holes, nice juice well, concaved/reduced top cap, and the airflow is nice, slightly restricted, not too much and not too little, just right. Easy to build on. Tightening screws won't snap your leads. Machining is top notch. All 4 that I have; no scratches, dents, dings, nothing on any of them. I'm beginning to think our steel is better than Chinese steel. I've had a few Chinese "SS" atomizers ding up pretty quickly from normal daily usage, but not American. Our steel is tough, IMO, like my Pr:)vari.

    I love my tugboats too. Have a black and a stainless one. Very good flavor.

    I need to get more flavors, I am lovin' the Real Flavors, so need to try more :)
    I don't 'need' any more flavors but I sure do 'want' a whole boat load of them. Need to check out my roomies little fridge in the garage and see if it will work for storing my flavor stash for better longevity of the stash.

    I am getting quite a flavor stash myself! LOL but need to try TFA Red Velvet Cake, butterscotch, cream soda, RF Cherry pie and get a big bottle of RF Samoa Cookie. Love that stuff!
    What % did you do yours at? I did 10% based on the recipe site recommendations and think it needs more. OSDIY was out of 30ml bottles when I ordered so I only got a 15ml bottle but added it my cart at RF's site for when I place a big order later this year or early next year.

    Hope my flavors are ok in a cool dark place. Don't want to have to put those in the fridge, but will if I need to. I'm not doing a lot of mixing right now because I have a lot of juice to use up and not ready to give up buying some of my favorites until for some reason (tax, state laws) I can't anymore.

    I asked Kimberly, of OSDIY Shop, about that in our last phone conversation. She told me that storing them to just avoid heat and direct sunlight was fine...no need for refrigeration. Said flavorings will not "go bad" longterm, but some might get just a tiny bit weaker after an extended time.

    I'm keeping my working size bottles & vials of flavorings in my mixing case, and the larger bottles that I refill those with...are in Priority Mail boxes they came in. House has A/C in use when it's hot outside, and temp. inside is never higher than 72-74 degrees. She said that's perfectly fine.

    .. *sigh* yeah, I know. It's why I hate impulse buys. I just had to buy that copper Tugboat. I have really bad candy shop style tendencies, even as a adult. I need to work on my money management skills. Maybe my future wife will be good at that.

    any deals out there on quality flavoring? who has the best deals? is flavor apprentice the best place to go for FA flavorings, does buying directly from them aviod the "middle man". any crazy cheap deals on flavorings like other deals have been lately.

    i also dont really think there is too much need to hoard flavorings, i dont think they will be subject to a ban, at least not for a while
