Finally bottling my 17 liters of nic, just washed the bottles and I am waiting for them to dry. I have a little anxiety about how clear the nic is going to be. I kept putting it off and I have been sitting on the bottles for like 6-8 weeks for most of them, I keep my house at 79° and for most of them they were shipped in the hot Florida weather.

My working liter normally takes 14 months to use and I keep that at room temp, but it starts to tint yellow after a few months. The bottles I bought were sealed with nitrogen, so hopefully most of the tinting happens from oxidation and not so much temperature.

I did buy a can of argon and I have silicone tape, so I guess I have that going for me. I will letcha all know if it was clear once I have finished. Probably will start in like 30-40 min once I am sure the bottles are dry.

Finished bottling, just need to bubble wrap and also separate 8 of the bottles, 4 to go to my daughters and 4 to my brother-in-law in case of hurricane or fire.

I have 17 liters of both PG and VG 100mg, mostly VG. I had gotten 4 bottles of PG because I thought the shelf life could possibly be longer because it is a preservative, and then I had another 2 bottles of PG because that's all that ecig express had when they were selling off their inventory. Both the VG and PG had been at room temp the past 6-8 weeks, the VG had a mild yellow tint to it, but to my surprise all of the bottles of the PG were crystal clear.

Not sure if that confirms my theory that 100mg PG has a longer shelf life, but I feel better about putting it at the back of the line to be used last... sending those 6 PG bottles plus 2 VG to my daughter and to my brother-in-law for long term storage.

@Rossum should do a test on 100mg VG vs PG at room temp.

Didn't have the item in stock and I asked for a refund 5 times before I got it. He kept offering other items instead. Had to dispute through PP.

I have vg that is at least 5 years old and it is completely clear.

This was room temp (actually 79°) for 6-8 weeks and they had been on a UPS truck in Florida heat.

I only asked once. Maybe his experience with you got him on the ball. I dont know. But I got my refund easily.

Yay, I think I finally have my Augvape wicking straight!

Wicking has been consistently easy for me since I started using rayon 4 years ago. I've wicked a boatload of rda and rta, only rarely did I even need two tries to have something wick properly.

The Intake took a bunch of tries, I had to thin the tails more than in anything I've used before. I'd have tossed it aside if the deck wasn't so pleasant to use, and the performance when I dripped in it was excellent.

Anyhow, with a 0.4 ohm twisted 26 kanthal coil on the Ehpro Armor Prime it's performing beautifully.

Of course, the gold Hellbeast came in today, so it might be time to do an rba build with that one...

I continue to be pleased with the Armor Prime, a protected quasi-mech. Squonkers are where it's at for me for my all day vape, but the AP with a tank is nice for changeup eliquids.

Just charged two Samsung 30Qs (3000mah) in my new Miboxer C4-12. From absolutely empty to 2,500 mah (guess they've lost some capacity) in an hour and a half. Sooo nice!

 

[markfm]

I'll be looking for the c4-12 on black Friday. My nitecore ums2 is a nice 2 bay x 2A/bay charger, but 4 bay x 3A/bay would be good.

I did order an Elevate, will be interested in seeing what it's like compared to the Intake.

My 30q register as 2,500 mah on the Miboxer. I think that it isn't the capacity but it is how much it has charged if that makes sense.

I was supposed to have two packages from FT today but they are still in transit. Seems like stuff from them is taking longer than normal. Oh well, it’ll get here when it does.

Sorry to interrupt but It was between here and disturbing the folk in the shinyitis thread. I just picked this one

I have one coil in my house and I’m feeling lazy but I can’t remember what it is for... aspire something

It’s old but does anybody remember?
thanks a lot

 

[Uncle]

Why the apostrophe? Seriously wanna know. Never seen that before.

Well - I guess Ya' can just say it's "My" personal "flair" or "bent' or even "style" and possibly a little "pizzazz" to just saying "You" (a Pronoun - the singular person and not including anyone else) - Ya' Know . . .

"You" - "They" - "Them"

Looks like a nautilus coil to me

This one is more complex, has tons of flavors and has more depth. I like it best with a tiny bit of Vape Wizard. "Loudonville Wedding Cake"

ummm. I am a bit confused. Can you educate me on how one would go about measuring 1/2 of a drop? I am not real clear on that.

Thanks.

Totally agree with you puffon, The elevate is a great rta and no leaks ever. Easy to build and wick and flavor is great too. Just place the coil height to just slightly over the top of the walls for a great taste.
Requires a little heavy on the wicking but don;t over do...it still needs to fit inside the chimney

 

[Zutankhamun]

Thank you both rosesense and katya

In the time I was waiting for a reply I found the tool I needed to continue my build...

I’m a poor excuse for a vapor

Aspire atlantis. I’ve got a million of them. And all I’ve used the past five years.
