Hi Sdh

But if you do not like please dont curse me were all different !
They have to be filled upside down if your interested i can explain or point you to a video there easy to fill .

I just looked and the one site is down for maintenance till Saturday morning.

LOL Dies! I would never hold you accountable for my purchase. You have already saved me a ton of money from your other reviews. :)I know what you mean my clean taste of ce2. They are superior in taste. I will try one but I suppose I would have to buy a 5 pack. Upside down? Tricky. I have to stand upside down...no J/k I know what you mean. :) will look at TTs house.

Here Sdh
i just use supplied needle and stick in filler hole and remove piece then turn tube upside down and tap on sink and steel tube comes off to view coil and to dry burn. I also used back end of needle to push back on steel tube and it clicks back in place , and to put that little silicone piece back onto the steel stem. After filling i can hold this hold assembled piece upside down and it does not leak nor gurgle for me so far.

I also did another way and left it on device and wiggled plastic tube right off and pulled the steel stem off and then rinsed coil and shook and the dry burn much easier for me.
Re assemble is easy .
These picture are taken from first time just to give you idea, it may seem complicated but actually its very simple and works for me.
My hope is to have 1 last a week which would come out to about 2.50 roughly each and a very nice vaping experience.
Longer would be a plus as well. ; )


LD did a video on it and another fella and thats what taught me.

Are the gloves they send really XXlarge gloves. IDK but Wally world sells nitrel gloves. I have small hands so med/large fits well.
Gloves are important in mixing high potency nicotine base. However, believe it or not...sssh I have mixed without them. I was using 36ml at the time. Anything higher and it is gloves for me

I must be at 7-8 drops in 5ml now, and its better. Still can't say when I take a vape I think 'Damn thats a good cherry', like with most of the other FEs. Still really need to fiddle with melon, blueberry is getting there, Grape is getting there. All in all, very good, but some still need some work, weather its me or the flavoring.

I got my first taste of the tobacco flavors last night and then today. I have to say I am very disappointed... they are incredibly weak compared to - not only other flavor manufacturers - but according to the reports that have been made here.

I really don't understand it. Because I know that another poster here wrote that the RY4 took ONE drop to make a good mix. I put almost half the flavor bottle in a 30ml in order to get SOME flavor at all to the mix. The caramel is almost nonexistent.

Did I get a bad batch, and should I try to return it? I kinda feel ripped off, which is odd because I've gotten great results using Ecigexpress so far.

The MLB needed to be mixed at 25% and the 555 needed an even higher percentage to get a taste at all, and not even close to a strong taste at that.

Should I return these? IMO, they totally suck :(

Sorry to hear that. I do not recall anyone saying 1 drop of the RY for a good mix (and to how much base?). I know I have it at higher than most of my TEs at 2 drops per ml, same with the 555. IMO, I am getting good flavor from both. What nic are you using? I dont have anything higher than 2 drops per ml, to get good flavor. Which is rare, like 1-2 flavors out of ~20, possibly or more do I have that much flavoring in.

I find it hard to believe you could get a bad batch of this stuff, but for no real reason. Maybe you did.

Just to be clear, are you talking about the Tobacco Express/Fruit Express line at ECX? They carry lots of different lines of flavorings. I've only tried the Fruit Express so far, and so far the ones I've tried are as highly concentrated as advertised.

Yes, sorry I didn't specify that it is the Tobacco Express line from ECX, I thought that was more clear....

Is it too concentrated? I don't think so because I started with 20 drops/1ML of nic juice and with one drop flavor, tasted nothing, and then moved up from there drop by drop.

The post that mentioned the ONE drop was in a 3ML bottle of nicotine mix - the post is here

Oh! That does not sound like these flavoring concentrates. Maybe ask Linx for a new batch. How many did you buy? Taste? These flavoring are super concentrated as well as another vendors flavoring on ECF. Not everyone loved all the flavors. I don't like Winston Churchill at all.
