Gosh i wish these would work for you as im having really good luck with them.
There coming out the 510 connector ? Or the mouthpiece area ?
If you posted that already im sorry as im still back reading.

not drop from the mouthpiece, all through the 510. I think the seal that is holding the juice is getting broken somewhere/how.

FWIW, I forget who asked about the TPA RY4 double, but I mixed some last night.

Seems off to a decent start. Mixed at 5%. Feels like it needs more flavor, but I'll let it sit at least a few days. I did botch it a little though I think - I finally diluted some EM in PG last night and got it all to dissolve, so you can guess what I experimented on first with it. LOL. Added two drops (to only 5ml) and yeah, that stuff sure "smooths" out flavors :p I probably "shouldn't" have done that, but it's all good - just another way of learning.

For reference, my favorite RY4 to date was IKV's RY4 Gold (the 30PG/70VG). Very rich flavor on that one though - bordering on too much. The current Dekang RY4 is "meh" IMO - I'll might have a few drops here or there, but I wouldn't even fill a carto with it.

Going on a shopping spree this Thursday @ ECX :) My vaping budget has been stuck at $0 for a couple weeks, but that's finally changing this week!

Hi Dieseler :wave:

Well, it was good, but not good enough to continue drawing from my thin wallet :p

Two primary reasons I DIY: knowing what's in my juice, and saving $. The latter has prevented any further pre-made juice purchases since I really got started. I know there's some great (by popular opinion) juices out there I haven't tried, but I just don't find myself that interested at those prices.

Having fun trying to mix a decent RY4 anyway.

@ Salem: do you happen have a recipe book shared online somewhere?

I do not have a recipe book of my own recipes online, but I do have a decent recipe book bookmarked with some good recipes in it.

Oh, and I agree about the prices for some of the premade juice. I bet that you will be able to make flavors that you like better than any premixed that you could buy before you even know it ;)

I use a 50/50 mix and have not had to use more flavor but steeping helps a lot IMO.
I'm just moving from 20/80 to 0/100, with 10% dw, right off the bat the higher vg seems to be muting the flavor ~considerably. I'm gonna make a sample adding 3-5% pga to what t I got and see what that does.

I like that one calculator you send me Salem as im used to it and for me personally it is great. :)
But the more options the better for folks just like flavorings !
By the way whats your favorite caramel flavoring ?
Im being nosey.

My favorite is Flavour Art Caramel. I like to keep it simple with calculators too, DL :)

I'm pretty sure I can tolerate 50/50. But I would like to go 100% vg anyways. I did do some reading last night trying to find about vg needing more flavor. no success really in regards to how much more when compared to pg. What I did find I believe, for me, is a reason to keep at it (no pg). Some (ok, at least 1) person/ people (=)) noticed having more energy or less energy loss when cutting out the PG. that sounds good enough for me to test out.
