LOL! This is why I am on the fence. Revision 1.5 of LT is out. I have no idea what the real revisions are? In addition, by the time I figure it out...bam...revision 2.0 will be out. The endless chase. I end up not buying because I feel overwhelmed...:) Caramel mocha sounds so good.

Goodness. Our order is being placed tomorrow and tehn they are building them so we will have the latest revision whatever that may be lol

Ok, Just dripped the atty with a bit of the ECX nic. I got the 50/50 60mg 30ml. I diluted it with 60ml of vg. First impression, Fantastic. All I got was a slight sweetness from my VG. The peppery scent was ever so slight. I think the only reason I got any (scent) is because I know it was there yesterday. But in vaping, no peppery-ness whatsoever. I'm thinking the melon may be a good flavor to do a side-by-side with my other nic, I am assuming it with have a subtle flavor. Then again, that's what I thought the banana would be like, lol. We'll see.

Goodnight for goodness sake!

LM, you might want to try 2% and let it steep a little. I find that with concentrated flavors, steeping really does make a significant difference. You also may be someone that needs a little more flavoring to be able to taste it. Everyones taste buds are so different.

Actually people can be divided into three distinct groups according to the number of papilla on the tongue.

There are "supertasters" with many papilla. These are usually quite sensitive to bitter tastes (about three times more ) around 20-30% of people. Usually supertasters eat bland things and shy away from bitter foods.

There are moderate tasters who fall in the middle , about 50%, and there are tolerant tasters , about 10-20% whom I suspect could vape Perioque black at 6% ;-)

I can post a technique using blue food coloring where you can count the papilla if desired and rate yourself.

Going through the ECX's Virginia today mixed at 2.5% that has steeped for over a week.

Between 8-10 watts, it is getting the best flavor for me, but I am finding it still a bit weak.

It is a dry vape, but with body so the TH is on the higher side. I'm not getting any sweetness out of it which doesn't make me think the name fits the flavor too well. It is a generic light leaf tobacco taste with an aftertaste that is just slightly smokey/ashy. (Oddly a french inhale does not make me sneeze which is usually typical for dry tasting vapes.)

Right now I think this one needs to go higher in % to work for me. At 2.5% it does not have enough depth of flavors to work as a standalone for me.

Yeah Hoosier, I was getting the same with the flavor on the tobaccos after 2 days. I was thinking though, it may have been the amount of flavors I was trying and the amount of vaping I was doing. Regardless, as with my tobaccos from VZ, aside from B&M, I bumped them up to 3%. So every tobacco I have diy'ed to this point ~7 aside from B&M, is at 3%. Will see if it stays that way.

I'm pretty picky about tobaccos. The concept that one flavoring can be a standalone for a tobacco juice is just this side of unbelievable to me. My current tobacco juice recipes look more like a NASA pre-launch checklist so finding anything that can help simplify that will be good.


(I'm not a reviewer type and I don't expect anyone else to have my sense of taste, but these flavorings are new enough that I think the more input others can get, the better able they are to determine if they want to part with their hard earned $ to try them theirselves.)

TEs- Cigar-2.5 Turkish-2.5 French pipe-2.5 FEs- Rasberry-3 Vanilla-1.5 Mango-2 Chocolate-1.5 Pineapple-3 Strawberry-1.5 Blackberry-2 Coconut-3 Banana-1.5 Apple-Lost count started making baby faces, aiming for 3 think I may have gotten 2.5-4

This is assuming ~45-50 drops per ml* just to make things easy for me =) I like easy!

All the FEs are the same. All thhe tobaccos have been bumped up to 3% and I believe apple will be at 3%. I have not been letting anything sit uncapped.

I loved Boges before I got addicted to the DCs lol When you start feeling adventurous, check out Ikenvape's cartos. They are some of the best available IMO. So many cartos, so little time :)

I use the 2.0 ohm DCs and they don't create a problem with most mods.

I second the opinion on Ikenvape. I mostly drip and use his i06 atty with glass drip tip.
