Hi Friends, collectors, and lovers of TrippyTips!
I have been reading and watching and sneaking a post in every now and then. I did pick this sweet tip up today:

.
Business has been good therefore keeping me busy and tired and the mom thing is kinda taken over my thoughts for quite awhile now. Kinda feel like a fog has entered the head and can't shake it, ya know-lol. Seems like you had a great ending to your work day, wish I hadda been a fly on the wall.
I love that one Hz! I am glad your business is doing well!
Look at all these answers, one minute apart! :laugh: :thumbs:
I love it! Thank you all for helping out. It's great to know that today someone got their first TrippyTips order in, and found this group of amazing people!
We like questions, they make us feel smart! :laugh:


Hz!!!!!! Where ya been girl?? How goes it? :thumbs:
:D:D:D ROFL!
Anyone going to vapestock next year? I am booked, lord I hope nothing comes up.


ETA: A lot of people have Blu's tip taste…………….That doesn't sound right
OH OH MEEE! I wanna go!
Howdy Trippyville,
Been a big day and will be a busy weekend but wanted to share a bit of good news that may benefit Amber as it made my day.

I had a major break-through on the ERA No Flavor front, after building numerous (9) different wick-n-coil configurations, I've finally discovered what was going on. However, I'll make an exception and that is that I need to build yet another successful wick-n-coil to prove my hypothesis but the issue was fairly obvious I just kept ignoring it. So on to the discovery.

I had been given a multitude of advice trying to help me with my issues and I've read every suggestion, I then researched every reported wick-n-coil design as well as a whole bunch of reviews and ultimately I believe it was Grimm Green's review of the Phoenix or A7 that finally turned on the light. Grimm mentioned to be careful to pull the coil away from the negative and positive poles or you run the chance of shorting out the last few wraps of the coil. That's when the epiphany struck and I remember firing my coil and seeing only the center wraps glowing brightly. I thought the wick was just impeding the heat but NO I was shorting out the last couple of wraps on each end of the coil. So that means even on a 6/5 wrap I only had 2 wraps doing all the work.

So last night I wrapped a 6/5 coil and used the design Cyclin suggested some weeks ago. When I got the coil and wick pulled into the posts, snugged and screwed down tight, a dry-burn showed the same issue of the last 2 coils on each end not glowing orange. So I loosened the screws, backed the leads of the coil out about 1/32" and retightened the screws. This time when I hit the power the entire coil glowed. I then trimmed the leads, juiced the coil-n-wick and 5 pulls later the flavor started coming on strong. So if your not getting flavor from a properly wrapped and powered coil then check the coil to post spacing cause this is way too easy to miss. Whew!

Here's that design Cyclin suggested. It's a bit easier than my other design and perfectly traps the juice on both sides of the center connector. It's essential a single strand of 3mm folded on the end where the coil gets wrapped. The strand is trimmed even with the bottom of the ERA base right in front of the coil. This lets you place the wick-n-coil and after getting everything set, you can cut the strand off after tightening the loop around the center connector. Very little wasted wick with this method. Brew

Hey Brew! Great info there! Jack uses glass peyote beads on his coils to keep them separated from the posts.

Thanks again Star! What would we do without you?
I don't have FB so me can't do that. :D
Does anyone know a way to make the FB page available to those who are not signed in to Facebook?
Just my observation ~

I imagine that with DFW's first time with TT's and having a B&M and a website, things weren't thought through. Having the Tip in both places and they being one of a kind, they probably weren't watching the site every second for a sale and not checking with each B&M sale to check the site to see if it's still available. With their other products they have a hundred of all the same thing so it's not like they sell one and can never sell it again.

Every business screws up, it's what they do to rectify it and make sure to avoid the problem in the future. I've never bought from them before and went to their site the first time to see the TT's, but I bet they feel terrible and embarrassed.

I am sorry and feel for all that got burned today though.

Just my 3¢...... because I can never stop at 2 :)

Thank you for offering this perspective wharf! I completely see where everyone who has posted about this already is coming from as well, and I am sorry to hear about the DFW situation. Please have patience with them. It is a newer business and I guess they are getting things figured out still.
That said, It breaks my heart to hear that this happened to you all! If DFW comes up with a better system for inventory management would you be willing to continue to support them? I will personally call them and ask what they plan to do to make sure this won't become an ongoing issue.
Wharfie, you do have a point. Hopefully it won't happen to anyone else.
Thanks for saying so sashwa!
