I've spent the last 2 days dusting off my old mods and atomizers - effectively a GP fast. New KFL+, Fogger v2, idaho's old ithika.

I've thoroughly enjoyed them and am satisfied with the collective experience.

I just now sat down at my desk and picked up my X.

WOW. Night and day. Heft, feel, the visceral experience is just more there. It feels a lot like moving from a clone or knock-off back to the "real" thing. The X just feels right.

And the more I reflect on it, yes the mod is awesome, standing head and shoulders above others in my collection, but it would just be a nicely machined piece of 316 steel if it weren't for this community. Especially the pillars like Perseas, Blake, Q, Idaho, and the whole host of others that built the aura of GP.

Bravo perseas, bravo team GP (for me, that title encompasses all the generous and slightly crazy folk in this thread)!

yeah! and what ever happened to the t-shirt design contest?
@perseas, is the logo vector art linked somewhere in this thread?
Perseas has been busy creating and building, not sure it is on the top of his list at the moment. He must approve the design. Gonna time this at his leisure. I would like to see the Aeolipile on the back. VapourArt/GP "......" on the front with VapourArt, Domo and Vapist listed off center towards the ribcage. In a classic/vintage look.

Hi, can anyone explain the difference of the Paps 2.1 and the Paps 2.5? I have an option to get a 2.1 used in decent condition, so I was just wondering what I was missing out vs. the 2.5?

A Spheroid from the classies is on its way to me - yay! Will get some spares on Friday to get this back to its full glory.

Best

Thanks perseas, I got your email.
@all looking to get the logos for the design contest, PM me with an email address and I'll send you my Dropbox link to it.

Hopefully I'll get a free moment to try some ideas out tonight.

It's a sad day in Amish country folks, I'm almost out if my BFC which is my ADV. To add insult to injury, my juice vendor just got in deep doodoo with ECF because she didn't respond to the forum manager's emails about renewal. I'm not even sure if I will receive my juice order of $75 this year.

I have the worst luck with juices I fall in love with folks :facepalm: My previous ADV was BB 'n GJ from AVE and we all know how fun it was trying to score that earlier in the year, let alone the whole hacking thing that went down later. Not to mention the toll this all VG NET took a toll on your stuff, regardless if ya thinned it down.

The greatest thing about finding a great ADV is spelling the end to countless juice sampling, possible vapors tongue, and generally frustrating experience of trying juice after juice that seems to be missing or lacking something you can't quite put your finger on.

For me to properly sample a juice I use it exclusively for a week, depending on if it needs steeping. So it's a time consuming process with many failures if you try ti go at it alone. But what I find has helped me narrow down the field is to live vicariously through my friend's both old and new alike by vaping what they swear by.

In honor of my recent entry into the wonderful world of George & Perseas (you too Blake, we yankees haven't forgot about you guys at Domo) Greekland I would like to humbly request ya'll let me know what you're vaping everyday the only criteria i have is please make sure your favorite juice is available in higher strength like 24mg or higher on account that I was a heavy smoker in a former life.

Your friend 'til the end,

RhP

Yeah Red she went down in a fiery blaze. I was probably one if the last orders that was actually made. I just ordered a 10mil of snicker doodle cookie. She upped it to 15 for waiting over a month for it. It seems that since then she has pretty much lied about what has shipped and when. It sucks. She got in over her head. I would have plenty of reco's for ya but I'm all the way at 6mg nic so not familiar with who offers the higher stuff.

My current ADV is Halo TriBeCa. Delicious. Very complex, slightly sweet. It does come in 24mg.

I've also been on the quest for new/better flavors.

I did invest in an ultrasonic cleaner to speed steep my samples. It works great, I steep for 1 hour, rest an hour, repeat 3 times. I also let it sit uncapped for a day or so. Tastes likes it's been steeped a month.

The ones I have tried that I like so far are:

Copper Creek: House Blend, Cake, Apple Cider
Hurricane Vapors: Vanilla Sky Tobacco
ECBlends: Dragon's Tears, Cinnamon Danish

All these vendors offer your 24 mg.

ECBlends also has many customization options; extra flavor, add sweetener, etc. They also can make custom blends; I'll bet with a few samples, you might even get close to your beloved BFC.

I'm not ready to try DIY yet until I get a better idea of what I like in a vape. Then I might give it a go.

I'm a dyed-in-the-wool fan of Nicoticket Custard's Last Stand (i personally think it tastes better than Grants) and H1N1. I keep at least 200ml in rotation constantly ;) http://www.nicoticket.com/eliquid/

Alice in Vapeland carries 3 other of my ADVs (i usually keep 100+ml on hand in various strengths): A Quiet Morning, Twas-Brillig, and April Moon. https://vapeland.org/e-juices-2/

Perseas, sorry if this was answered in the last few pages. I see nov 22nd is the next vapour day. Will there be SnPs in stock with 23mm caps and at what time in Greece does the store go live? I'm really really hoping to try to get one.

It is 18:00hrs. (6:00pm) Athens Time on Nov-22/2013
Which is 08:00hrs. (8:00am) your time (Vancouver, BC)

Sorry RHP, thats a genuine PITA.

You guys over the pond should be glad you have got so much good juice to choose from! Everything I have tried from the US has blown all the UK liquids clean out of the water. The only exception being GVC (kicking myself :facepalm:for only ordering 30ml as a taster).

It seems like I have gone through 100+ bottles of liquid in the space of a year. We seem to be going through a massive evolution here in the UK. The juice makers in the UK are starting to get up to speed with you guys over the pond.

Everytime I find some great liquid it turns out to be very hard to find and/or is very expensive. Alien Visions is near enough impossible now to get in UK. Thankfully I stocked up on 80ml of Bobas & 100ml of Gorilla but I have a horrible feeling I will struggle to get again as its now out of stock.

My Favourite ADV-in order of preference

1.Gorilla Juice-Alien Visions
2.Bobas Bounty-Alien Visions
3.GrantsVC
4.Indigo Vapor RY4

I think all these are available in 24mg
