Haven't had it in a while, now that I am thinking about it I might have to place an order. I'll see if Mom wants to go halfsies on one because you can really only find the stuff online.
And now that I asked Geege about it (she's okay with salted licorice but prefers the honey and the pastilles), RSH wants to taste the salted type. Where can she find it?

I order that stuff from the dutch market, its an online place in canada. dutchmarket.com I believe.

They may only have the double salt but it really isn't double and it is dang tasty.

If they order have them get you some milk chocolate hagel (sprinkles) or vlokken (chocolate shavings) A childhood treat, a piece of bread or rusk with real butter and chocolate shavings. Very yummy. They also have an anise flavored powder sugar that you eat the same way. It was always a special treat to have it.

Working from home is sometimes very over rated. Our shop is just out back. I just got home from the other job and I need to do billing etc. but nope, sitting here having a beer instead. I am much better if I have to ''go to work'' but I sure miss the easy schedule rearranging when I just worked for hubby years back.

Definately for the extremely disciplined. It is always hard, one never 'leaves' work and you are at work and know you got house chores to do or vice versa. And then there is that nagging feeling if you are just not working at all and know there's plenty 'at work' you could be doing.

So.. not impressed with the LR cartos so far.

4 toots and so far... decent vapor, way better than a regular carto at 3.7, but flavor is still missing comparatively, and on the last toot I got some burnt. Also doesn't seem to hold as much liquid, .... plugs dont' fit in them so excess will just float out the bottom or get drawn out during a spin. Will experiment further and come back.

I was a might be afraid of that. I detest burnt fill, which is why I have loved the cartos and ditched the attys cause direct drip is a pain, though I direct drip cartos alot. I only ordered two packs so if they turn out to be so so I will live.

What I did notice that works well is that noalox stuff applied to the battery end thread. Seemed to give a bit more oomph. But wash you finger good before hitting the switch or it will feel funny! LOL! Not sure what that sticky grease is made with but I feel like I get a better connection. Might be in my brain though.

Still have a bit of June allowance left so I'll probably grabbed some more megas from Drew towards the end of the month. I know it is good to try new things but chucks and mega cartos have not let me down yet so I really outta quit while I am ahead but then again, it's what keeps vaping interesting, which keeps me from even taking one hit off an analog.

I pulled one apart, the sleeve over the coil literally touches the coil and forces it against plastic and then that fabric sleeve. Not impressed with the way it was made.

Bombdropsvapor is supposed to be getting some 1.8 ones in for cheaper, not sure if they're the same.


The pluses: Much more vapor than a regular carto @3.7v, a little more taste. Rubber tops so drip tips work and it's easier to actually drip into the carto with it on it.

I personally don't think I'll ever try them again unless there's a different manufacture.

So I got my lr 510 cartos today. I am not "Wow"ed but they are not bad. I know alot of folks like the lr attys on a 3.7......I am just plain hooked on my six volts. So much so that I wish I got all big chucks, especially since my favorite design is my little chuck.

I made sure to test it out with an e liquid I liked at six volts. The flavor doesn't come through as much though and I thought it would be warmer. I suppose these cartos will have their place. I think I'll try my halo liquid in one latter, I really dislike the halo torque at 6, so like I said, these might work well for stuff that doesn't do well at that voltage.
