Florida Chat - Hi !

[Flowersoul]

Just found out that Wizard Labs are or have moved....to Orlando.

Now that should cut down on shipping time !

LOL I should say so!!

They should be back in operation on the 28th.....wouldn't want to be one of the staff that day.....probably will be overloaded with orders.

You're one of the lucky ones who lives closer!!!

They will now be 1.5 hrs from my home, and it does make for a pleasant road trip.

They are near enough on my drive home from work.....sigh pity

Ahh, great vape meet today here in South Florida! So fun. I'm beat. Love seeing new vapers too. One guy said he flicked out his last cig before entering our vape meet and he's done! I did a DIY demonstration and he was real interested . Very cool!

 

[Flowersoul]

So wish I could have been there, but S.Florida is just a bit too far for a day's travel.

I've been keeping tabs on the petition that I signed the other day, and I came across another Palm Coaster that signed and so wish I could connect with him/her. The was one other Palm Coaster, but that was my husband. There were some in Daytona also. Not even sure they're on ECF, but could possibly start a very small meet that could possibly grow.

I do know there are some Jax folks here!

It doesn't hurt to try starting one. Contact Florida Vapers on Facebook or in the community specific location in here and she will help spread the word for you and give you great advice!

Central Florida Vapers have regular meets at LJE Smokes, rebuildable workshop this weekend, if you are near Daytona Edgewater isn't a million miles away.

Okay, I just ordered my first rebuildables. I got 2 of the drunkers. They are new and very similar to the Vivi Novas, which I have grown to love. They are also very reasonably priced at $15.99. I found a great thread in here on them which sold me. I guess now I will force myself to conquer this task that I have kept putting off. Lol. I'm trying real hard to get my vaping costs down as cheap as possible without having to constantly be ordering supplies. Wish me luck!

good luck Diane! i've actually heard nothing but good things about these inexpensive little rebuildables. everyone says they vape surprisingly well, like as good or better than some of the expensive high-end jobs.

 

[Flowersoul]

I've heard nothing but good reviews of these also!

I may get into them, but right now, just trying to figure out DIY!

 

[classwife]

I haven't seen those, but I like the rebuildable stuff !

 

[Flowersoul]

I really need to stay away from trying to do too many new projects at any given time! It makes my brain hurt!

I know lots of folks took to DIY like white on rice, but this gal isn't one of them.

So, until I get that down, learning the rebuildables will have to wait. I am interested in a carto tank though.

Jeez, I'm such a newbie to all the new stuff! I was away for about 1.5 yrs and in that time, all the new equipment out there left me in the dust.

I was content with 808s for a very long time and they are still very satisfying. Volts were my thing for the past 1.5 years.

Now, it's Egos and getting my first mod in the next couple of days......a simple one, mind you, but that's exactly what I need.......simple.......EgoTMod.

Have a few of the embossed ego type batts and they are holding up beautifully along with Spinners and Twists. I have a few Mini novas, T2s and T3s and plenty of clearos! With DIY in my agenda, I will stock up on juice and then play with more hardware later.

Wow, I'm rambling, so had better stop now!!

 

[MiamiMom63]

Well, I've had a bit of a fear factor with learning to do a rebuildable. But I have decided to leap in and sink or swim. Lol. Sort of what i did for diy. im determined to get this vice of mine to work for me at its cheapest level. i got my wire and rba's. I'm in the process of considering which cotton wick to start with and am staring at them a lot to build up my courage. Ha! Plus of course watching youtubes alot. Actually, they come with an already made coil I'm liking but it is a bit airier a draw, however I have heard the draw depends on the coil and wick and I'm thinking once I use a thicker wick in it, the draw will probably tighten up. So I'm hesitantly starting....eventually. Lol.

 

[MiamiMom63]

Flower soul, DIY is really a lot of fun and not scary. Just get a lower nic base that is not dangerous. I prefer using 48 mg nic base so no worries.

 

[Flowersoul]

Miami Mom,

I ordered my first time from WL ICE. I bought 250 ml of 18 mg 70/30. I know that's not cost efficient but wanted to experiment with flavoring. I will be purchasing more from WL, and methinks a trip to Orlando is in the near future.

My second order was from MFS for 500ml of 48mg in 100%PG. Now, I just have to purchase some bottles, probably 120ml with polycone caps, but haven't done that yet. Looking at the best place......still trying to decide....
I certainly don't feel comfortable dealing with the higher nic levels either. Maybe down the road, but right now, 48mg is fine.

I have about 90% of the equipment I need, but am waiting on beakers, 18g blunt needles and some other miscellaneous items.

Feels like I'm starting all over again, and essentially, I am, but this is for the long haul.

If you don't mind I'd like to pick your brain on the rebuildables when I'm ready!

Of course if you are on Facebook, I highly recommend you friend DIY Recipes on there. It's a lot of fun seeing people post their recipes and they are very helpful.
