Are we sure? Why do only certain ones do it? The tank obviously isn't the problem it's something in some of the additives. Anybody can set up a mixing lab and say they are professionals but who's to know? Maybe with proper legislation like the tobacco industry we can start having cyanide and hundreds of other poisons added.:facepalm:

Quick update. I don't know what the cause is, but I'm finding something I like. Wether it's the juice or the fact I'm trying it in a dripper I don't know. This is my first attempt at using a dripper and the first time I've built my own. I've built a dual micro coil at 0.7ohm, that's how it came out anyway. But from my list of juices on page 1 all from FastTech the

Marlboro Mint gets a 10/10,
Watermelon gets a 9/10
Banana 8/10.
Rum 8/10
Red Energy 8/10 Will try these again.

Cream 6/10
Ry4 5/10 Not for me.

Well I've just loaded up a new nautilus with it's original coil with the Marlboro mint and it's still good, not as good as the dripper but I did expect that from what I've read. Still good throat hit, just lacking the cloud a little. But I would definitely buy again and maybe add a couple drops of pure vg just to try it.

So, I've now put the Watermelon in the Nautilus with a new coil ( the original spare so a BDC) and again a drop in flavour. I've also tried the Watermelon and the Red Bull in a variable power mod with the Nautilus and that's made no difference. The Watermelon I would buy again.

Conclusion so far..... Dripper gives better taste than the Aerotank which gives a better taste than the Nautilus.
Rating the juices, I'd put the Marlboro mint 1st, Watermelon 2nd and Red Bull 3rd.

The trials continue.

Well I've put the Rum through the same steps and same results as the others for the hardware test,tasted best in dripper and worst in the Nautilus.
Still good vapour in all but taste was very limited in all set ups. I could vape it, and i did, but it was a bit like real stinkys to me in the way I vaped it. I never enjoyed smoking for last 5 years or so, it was more a need for nicotine and physical habit more than anything. I'd light up have a couple of draws then look at it saying to myself what are you doing and half the time stub it. It was the same with this Rum, pick it up vape a couple of hits then look and wonder why I was doing it and put it down.
Overall rating 5/10. Last on my list. Would I buy again,,,,No.

Another update on them juices. I've been trying the Banana from FastTech wasn't over impressed in any of the test mods apart from the dripper. Again it lost flavour in the aerotank then again in the nautilus. Seeing as I'm off work today I thought it's about time to break out new toys and see if I can build a decent coil.
1st test was with kayfun clone, 28g kanthal, 2.5mm drill bit, and used cotton pads. The build was easy to put together, cam out at 2.2 ohm. The only problem was filling. From the bottom with plastic nipples bottom I just kept on filling till it started coming down the drip tip. Very strange. The problem I have is my Astro clone threads aren't very good so it won't fit on that, going to need a new top cap. It fits on the other 2 vv mods ok. Now, filled with the banana again it's good. Plenty of vapour and a nice smooth taste. So it's getting a 8/10 and put back the list to try again.

2nd test was with a rocket v1. Again 28g and 2.5mm drill a couple of wraps less and ended up with 1.7ohm. Filling through the side hole I found impossible even after transferring the juice into a metal needle bottle, so I read the instructions and just filled it from the top no problems. Now I've filled that with the anti venom I got from the states and it's fantastic. Taste, throat hit, and vapour all get a 10/10 and straight on the must have list.

My next steps in the shopping list is to find a replacement top cap for the astro clone and get some more kafun clones. I will continue to use the rocket but found everything easier with the kayfun. Looks like the aerotank and nautilus are going to find early retirement.

Well I've now used up the Anti Venom from Killer Juice. Used in the Rocket and the Aerotank and I'm well impressed with it, again more taste in the Rocket but nice in both. Totally indescribable taste to me, like nothing I've had before but I will buy again but in a lower nic level, 18mg was just a bit strong I think.

Now for the Rainbow Sherbert.
It's taken me the best part of a week to use up 15ml it was that strong of a hit I can't believe it was only 18mg nic. But I've used in 3 tanks, the Rocket, Kayfun and Aerotank with the best taste from the Rocket. I got used to the taste the more I went through it, very nice indeed although very faint, definitely needed more flavour. Maybe an extra hit of flavour and a definite drop in nic level next time.

I've just loaded up the Kayfun with the Cream from FT and after a couple of tastes I've mixed in some menthol to use it off. It's bad, pure and simple not my taste, never again.

Rebuilt the kayfun and the rocket at 1.6ohm this morning filled the kayfun with the banana milkshake and again it's not for me. Considering I didn't like the cream yesterday, it could be something to do with the milk/cream juices I don't like. It's smooth and plenty of vapour but I will avoid this one in future.
The rocket got filled the strawberry and banana and that's very tasteless and again like rainbow Sherbert seems seems very high in nic. Will keep using it for now before I make a final decision.
