Yeah, gennies are tight. But I don't lung hit (I barely even inhale :laugh:) so they work for me.

Any word on FC carrying the Nahualon? I think that's what I would like to top a Silver Dragon, then I'd buy them together. I'm leaning more toward the Naualon, because I'm dirt poor, by this week I'll have two mods (only) and neither of them would look right with the Sat. Plus it doesn't leak, and I'm tired of having to stand my mod up in between sofa cushions. :laugh: Also have an eye out for the BF-99, but I don't think anybody's cloning that one yet.

Isn't it the Satellite that hybrids onto a real ZNA 30, that is it screws on in place of the top cap? And the robbot has the Z2 threading, right? Or am I completely confused and its some other RDA that hybrids with the Zen?

I keep looking at the Sat 22 and think about it but I missed out on the whole genny craze 2 years ago and working with stainless steel mesh and torching it and that operation just doesn't appeal. Can those things be wicked with rayon or cotton or readyX or something that doesn't require all the work mesh does?

I'm rather happy with my Kayfun lites and Taifuns and Rose and Fogger V4 but I'm still willing to try something else. I don't really care for drippers, too much work filling too often although I've been looking at the Big Dripper with its dripping tank feature. I do like my 3D on a Nemesis clone with its pseudo squonk tank, but 1.5ml just isn't a big enough tank.

I tried Jenny's with mesh when I first started and never built one I liked. In fact I gave them all away. The Sat22 (Satburn) I have is set up with a vertical microcoil with cotton. I think because of the chimney on this thing, I love it!!! In fact I ordered 2 more on the back of the great vape! It's under $15 so well worth a try.

You can wick with rayon, but it's still a little fiddly. If you don't get the density right at the coil and the juice hole, and thin the tail down right, it doesn't work that well. How did I put it on the rayon thread...my tail looks like Farrah Fawcett hair with a little Rapunzel thing happening at the bottom. :laugh:

I have my Sat built with cotton, I can't stand the taste of mesh.
I just got my sat Saturday, built it with a twisted 32 and the Sally s cellulose cotton. Rayon whatever you want to call it and it works great. tight on the draw but good flavor. Coils at 1.5 ish. Heats up fast

Delicious, right? I can't wait for the other 2 to get here, yeah, I'm going to have all 3 going at the same time. Spoil myself rotten!

    I tried gennies as my 1st go at rebulding, and it nearly put me off altogether, could never get them work properly with SS mesh or cotton, would never wick well, then someone suggested a kayfun style to me, and as was so cheap, so tried one, which worked really good for me for a long time, kayfuns was pretty much all I used in that style rebuiladble till I came to this thread and Nikki started making me spend all my money on all the different tank systems out there :)

    I did learn from the kayfuns, never stick to just one topper, as they all have pros and cons and there is always one better just around the corner to play with :D

    My shipping times to the East Coast USA have averaged around 3 weeks with the free shipping option.


    In other news, the description was corrected for the Little Boy atty clone and it no longer re-directs to another site to purchase it. For around $6 (don't forget to use the 'fcvapingcheap' discount code) I won't expect too much but it looks identical to the ones that are nearly twice as much on FT.
    Darn, no purple lingerie? Guess I don't need to order that one anymore. :p

    Sorry boo boo, no Nahualon :cry: I think you may be the only person looking for the clone :p Is anyone else selling it?

    Oh sure, blame it all on Nikki :laugh: Variety is the spice of life darling :banana: Now I have way too many to appreciate any ... haven't touched a Kayfun in what seems like months. I am ready to kick this Squape to the curb but I am too lazy to rebuild the Rose right now :laugh: But dang, I want her back :wub:

    Been dripping a lot this weekend, which is annoying, but I am loving two of the flavors from Dr. Juice ... Nailz, when they get up and running again you have to try Delish :drool: I still have 5 to try but I love Delish and I like Boston George .. I need to change my wick to give that Phantom Disco (fruity) another go .. but so far the quality of this juice is impressive. So smooth and clean tasting, glad I stalked him on FB :laugh:

    Well I have to blame someone don't I :laugh:

    I tend to stay away from the premium juice, as go through so much juice, just to expensive for me to vape this $22 for 30mil bottle juice, I love nictoticket's juice, but that got to expensive for me too, I wanted more money to but hardware, so now I just vape crap juice :laugh:

    You mean SXK cloned and Infinite is profiting from it :laugh: I am surprised that any vendors even both with buying from Infinite any more, just go to SXK and Cigreen.

    Well at least being SXK, it should be a good quality clone, if can go by the stingray x :)

    I agree about premium juice, which is why I have always been DIY .. but I must say that having the opportunity to try vendor juices is kind of ruining me because when its really good I kind don't want my juice anymore :laugh: And I make good juice, but I guess I am a little tired of my own same ole same ole.

    I have hope that Dr.J will lower their prices some, although that is just wishful thinking on my part :p But I think in order to be really competitive at the out set that they would need to. :)

    No worries. FT has it. :) I was just trying to do the right thing and waiting it out to see if FC was gonna get it too. Yeah, I think that's another one of those Cali-Euro things. You know how quirky we are. They have the Atmizoo Lab 65 now too. That's another quirky one that I've been waiting for (I wanted the Lab 50 though). :laugh:

    I like the price of DIYing, but I guess I'm not that good at it, not mixed very good juice, and the time it takes too, to much time for too little reward for me, I will still do a little bit of DIY here and there, but can get a lot of pre-made juice very cheap, especially on holiday sales, might not be premuim, but still better than I can make :p

    I might give Dr.J a try, just wary in case I like it to much :)

    I pre-dilute my base in 750ml batches. I keep my 50/50 4mg all set to go in an old chianti bottle that I store in the freezer. Then I keep a 4oz bottle of it with my flavors. So when I mix, I just measure out the flavors straight into a needle bottle and top off with base. I don't even use syringes anymore. I just keep my flavors real simple and use those old carto condom thingies as measuring cups (the ones I have are exactly 1ml). :laugh:

    I dilute my bought juice with flavorless nic juice by 2/3rd's, one 15 ml bottle makes 45 ml of juice. I've been doing that for a couple years now and I love it that way, yes it does reduce the taste some but not as much as you would think. Try cutting a sample and see how it tastes, you might be surprised. Sure makes it easier on the pocket to turn one bottle into three! My favorite is Uncle Junk's Jon Wayne, 2nd is Vaperoo Roobacco and my newest is a nice and inexpensive net made by Velvet Cloud Vapor called Caramel Swirl.
