Made up 480ml of menthol for the Mrs today so she is set for a very good while and for a spell thats all i could smell was Menthol.
Made up 180ml of some e-liquid for me and now enjoying being free from buying vendors premade e-liquids and have confidence in making what i personally like the same taste all the time batch for batch.
So now i can start to buy bigger bottles of my go to flavorings, nicotine, vg, and pg and the cost will further drop in calculator as there a little lower in bigger size and will not go to waste for me.

You are right. It is much more cost effective to buy the bigger bottles of those items for use. Now that you are an old pro and have your sea legs, you should buy bigger bottles.

Ok it is tonight! :) Are they still good?

LOL, so far, as much as I hate to say it, this thing is pretty sweet. Good flavor, slightly muted, but I have been vaping mostly atty lately so, of course it doesn't match that. Took maybe 10-20 vapes to break in, was wanting to get vapes that said it wasn't wicking well, but it just avoided them. No totally dry, toss the PV hits. After break in, all good. Mine is perfect at 4 volts on a lavatube, to far in either direction performance starts lacking in obvious ways. Some crackling of the juice, similar to a carto, good imo. Lots and lots of vapor. Lots and lots of vapor (yes, I said that twice on purpose). The Draw, for me, was ever so slightly to tight, a 510 to 510 connection and it is perfect. I have only tried one from the 5 pack, so I can't comment on consistency regarding that yet, but If they are all like this one, I couldn't be happier or more impressed. If you are not able to fine tune the voltage, you could/should? get good results, but not optimal.

Lol, ECX didn't bother to put all the tips & caps on my bottles this time =P (11 = yes,, 35 = no)

Edit: just to be clear, all the caps and tips were in the order, they just did not 'install' them onto the bottles this time, which is fine with me as the first thing I need to do is take them off =) Nothing was missing.

Just wanted to bump this in case anyone read it and thought they left something out of the order. linnx, actually pm'ed me saying he wanted to get the tops that I didn't receive to me. I did receive the tops, I just wrote it out poorly, I did the edit to clarify. So yeah, just in case anyone was wondering.

Promising for sure! Thank you for your impressions. I might ask you again in a few days. I have heard positive results. Its worth a 5 pack for sure. :) I know I just luv my ce2 taste. Yum! I am vaping some Dhill right now. I even mixed some with the ugg winston churchill.

Well the winston was mixed over a week ago. It must need aging. Or my lung taste buds have been activated. :) J/K

The only one I don't have high expectations for at this point is the MLB, the one the other person (forgot the name) was having problems with. I was not getting the full flavor that the others were giving me.=)

Lol, i think that tobacco extract did me more harm than 555 @ 30%. Holy, I need to do some more reading on that.
I have not tried the tobacco extract so I really have no clue. I know I have seen a few threads mentioning this somewhere. Tobacco absolute I only add on drop to 30ml. It kinda kicks up the flavor for some mixes...I used it until I started TE and FE flavorings. I am keeping this one just in case.

Yep, I shouldn't say anything about it other than that I need to do some reading =)

Hello all!

It seems ECX is really expanding this lineup pretty quickly. I'm in the market (well, soon) for some more tobacco's. I've been obsessed with good tobacco flavors since I had some mad cravings a few months ago. I'm totally over that, but not the quest for more wonderful flavors - that won't ever end I'm sure.

So - I confess to have not read much of the thread. Anyone mind sharing a short list of the top picks so far? Thanks in advance :)
