Due for an upgrade...Options?

I ordered everything from wizard labs except my flavors i got them from MBV, next go round if i am fairly successful with this I will be ordering direct from the source esp if it is cheaper, but MBV's prices are really good!

I have plenty of syringes, To draw up all my liquid i use an IV catheter, it has the same ID as the OD of a 16AWG needle, and is flexible so i don't have to worry about ever stabbing myself with it(and it is pretty durable.) and believe me i know how thick VG is, i primarily vape VG as PG really irritates me.

the next piece i am buying will be glass bottles(and maybe a couple mods and rba's) if this is successful, but for now i plan to reuse some old bottles from previous liquid. I think i spent 45$ total for everything, so if i can get only 1-2 flavors that i like out of it, i can vape it till the cows come and save some money lord knows i need to because i finally let myself catch this mod bug that everyone talks about...

edit: whats wrong with SmokTech? I am not up on anything with them or any other company, i never really used this as an outlet till recently vaping was only a tool to keep me from smoking.

Smoktech doesn't have a clean record in the vaping community that's for sure. Minus the Groove recall, they've had issues with releasing subpar products that barely work and mods that can be hit or miss. But that's just my opinion, the RSST does appear to be a good attempt at improving the genesis design.

That IV catheter idea sounds awesome! I might need to pull some resources to try that out.

MBV is great for trying new flavors for sure! I've used them for the most part in the past with great results. I also HIGHLY recommend VapingZone. The 3% flavor is super easy and with hardly no steep times (I usually just give them a hot bath). Everything I've ordered from them has been great as a standalone vape too.

I remember hearing that they screwed up the bases on a run of the rssts but that supposedly has been addressed. Other than that its kinda hard to screw it up really. As long as it screw's into 510, even if the top deck hole isn't isolated correctly it then just becomes an aga-t with a cup instead of a top and bottom seal.

I order a couple flavors from mbv premixed by them, blood orange, black cherry, and hawk sauce... Hawk is OK but omg the blood orange is amazing! If I can get the wick fixed on this rich man tonight it will most likely become one that travels with me often.

I think I ordered a couple other fruits for my first diys plus some blood orange

Oh, for high concentration juices that need less than 1ml of liquid look into needle free insulin syringes they are actually marked in 1/10 ml and you can hook the iv catheters to them.

I've tried many of their juices as well, but not blood orange.

I've tried premixed:

Solar Flare
Extreme Ice
555 Menthol
Moo Juice
Thug Juice
Hawk Sauce
Butterscotch

Flavors (Flavor West):

Dulce De Leches Flavoring
Extreme Ice Flavoring
Butterscotch Flavoring
Menthol Flavoring
Spearmint Flavoring

I've also tried some TPA and LA from wizardlabs and onestopdiy too.

arg!! i am so frustrated with my richman setup!! I'm to the point i think it is the juice... i doesnt wick up to the coil like my other juice does...

I mean my go to tobacco, the wick looks wet at all times, if i touch it with a dental pick it looks soaked, i can visibly see juice, but not with the near identical setup(rebuilt it last night) on my richman It looks dry, and stays that way even when touched... i dunno what the deal is... guess its time to set it up with either silica or hemp, and see if that works better...

I've even made a thread about it in the e-liquid section to see if i get some responses >.<

i just wonder if there are some juices that dont work with SS mesh and i didnt know about it because i have never experimented with juices before really and i jsut happened to get one of the juices that fails horribly with SS mesh...

and on topic...

I'm not a big menthol or mint fan, and when i decided to start experimenting the thought of baked goods just didnt sit well with my train of thought so i have been going after fruits more so than anything else but once i get more into DIY i will most likely pick up a couple concentrates to experiment with in areas that i previously didnt think would be a good idea.

 

[gutter22]

I was shocked I liked fruits and sweet juices so much. I smoked menthols so of course I flocked to a mint juice at first.

Dulce De Leches is purely for adding missing flavors to various mixes I make. Currently my favorite is a butterscotch cream style juice, love it!

On a side note, I've ordered me a puritank, some 2mm silica and 32 kanthal to start messing around. I have a feeling I won't get to far into ss mesh builds so I may go with a igo-l dripper or something similar to start with.
