    Got this message back from Vapor RL today when I said to switch out the wood grain kit for the black mod and charge me the $10 or whatever it was. Still unsure of what they expect me to do here, there's no link to pay and that picture is just that, a picture of the item on their web site. I guess the hard part is wording a response that isn't rude or condescending while still asking how the :censored: do you expect me to pay the additional $.

    And yes I've been all over their website and there's no way for me to pay them $9.38. It was a Paypal purchase so maybe they just expect me to send $ that way but that's kind of weird and hard to keep track of.

    I think I'm just going to tell them to cancel the whole order. I'm not even saying I won't place another order on their site I just think it would be the least confusing way of handling the problem when perhaps English is not their first language.

    Sounds easier to just cancel the order

    Well, IMO, you're a very lucky DIY novice. vape Train flavorings are made in Australia! There's only 1 vendor in the US who VT will sell their flavorings to here. If/when he's out of stock on some...we have to wait quite awhile for them to be available again.

    There are several VT flavorings that people who DIY use singly (along with plain VG, plain PG, and nic base) to make some very tasty eliquids! One of my favorites is their Hazelnut and Cream. Another one is their Lemon Meringue Tart. The LMT is also used to make a wonderful Lemon Meringue Pie recipe that many people love! There's another VT flavoring in it, too.
    Wow that is great info - thank you JCinFLA. There are a few vape leaders in Aus (think Haku) but not many because of our ridiculous laws.

    I'm a big fan of Dinner Lady Lemon Tart so I'm going to check out the VT LMTt asap. Also the others you mentioned. :thumb:

    Speaking of bottles... I'm looking for some LPDE 100 ml graduated bottles with thin tips. I think I'll be ordering some from China.

    I was looking for those exact bottles. But I realized my thick vg juices are not going through a funnel so I gave up on the graduated ones.

    So I have been sick the past week, sinus congestion, really bad sore throat with a painful dry cough. I decided to use "Teladoc", my insurance company had sent out a card for them awhile back and I thought I would give it a try as it only costs $10 and was more convenient than an office visit...

    When I looked at my online account after my phone call with them, it turns out (according to my Teladoc doctor) that I have tonsillitis so she called in a prescription for me.

    Which is odd, because I had my tonsils removed back in 1975.

    Even with tonsils it doesn’t sound like tonsillitis. :lol: Weird.

    Are you using the STM RBA all day every day? Just wondering if this is a longevity thing. I haven't had any problems except this - it just starts showing "No Atomizer" after about a year with the same RBA deck. Once I break out a new one I'm good to go. For about a year.
    I did use them all day every day for about 2 years. There is one caveat though. I build them at about .7 ohm and run them at 15-20 Watts. You could be running considerably hotter than I am.

    I pretty much do not use Factory built drop in coils in anything.

    Have you checked all the contacts between the RBA deck and the base of the atty? Have you cleaned them? Is the bottom pin of the RBA deck clean and making contact with the base of the atty? You might need to adjust it a bit.

    OK...never have I seen such amazing talent at finding all things vape online. Truly gifted this group is. I need help - my RTA stash is based on the Kanger Subtank Mini from the 2016 vapocolypse. I have about 20 of the RBAs, but I've noticed that they do seem to die after about a year so. Maybe it has something to do with the PEEK insulator? I seem to remember some discussion around this years ago. Does anyone know where to get replacement insulators for the STM RBA? Or, can any of you vape ninjas find it? :)
    I haven't seen the peek insulators for sale anywhere but the V1 subtank had melting problems and Kanger sent out free insulators so I would contact them to see if they have them for sale:

    Kinda blows my mind how I can drop $3.5k on vaping gear to last me a lifetime but I'm being cheap and procrastinating ordering flavor, batteries, and glass to put the nic in because my credit card bill is high.

    I'm also kind of in "trouble" at work. My office manager spilled her coffee on herself fishing all of my packages out of the mailbox on Monday. I'm now in charge of getting the mail, although I may get my own key out of it so maybe being in "trouble" isn't all that bad!

    If there's one good thing to come out of this it's that this whole stockpile effort really put the brakes on my sneaker addiction... for now. Waiting for this one pair to go on sale...

    I'd just settle for sneakers that don't give me blisters at this point. Weight loss -> foot size change and I am playing heck finding anything that fits.

    Actually my build is usually 1.1 ohms at 12 watts. I will check contacts/clean it, but I dont notice anything at a quick glance. Thanks all for the help.

    My bday is in February. I am one of those weird Aquarius people. :laugh:

    When the moon is in the seventh house
    And Jupiter aligns with mars
    Then peace will guide the planets
    And love will steer the stars

    I was going to link to a YouTube of that, but it’s too early lol.

    I had mine out today (aqua panels)... a kind shiny fixed mine to take a 21700. My other two I left 18650. I really do like it. Bought a gross of bottles and maybe a half dozen panel sets when I found them on rock bottom clearance. It’s just a solid little bugger!
    How'd you do that - the 21700 hack - without the doors popping off? I've tried it but can't get it to work
