• Need help from former MFS (MyFreedomSmokes) customers

    Has any found a supplier or company that has tobacco e-juice like or very similar to MFS Turbosmog, Tall Paul, or Red Luck?

So I got my extension cap for my provari, loaded in a freshly charged CGR18650CH, and it flat out doesnt work. Tried my other CGR18650CH, and that doesn't work either. Pretty bummed. I have no idea what is wrong.

Ugh that totally sucks! If you put the normal cap & battery in does it work then?

Wait a sec.... are they flat top or button top?

Same as pictured here..

Looks like a button, but not as pronounced as a button as my AWs.

Monkey, If you're using the batteries in a device which requires a button top, do not buy the batteries which I suggested. Go with the ones giant posted. Same thing with a button top.

OK, thanks. So far, all my lavatubes work with flat or button tops. I'll remember this when I get my provari, sometime in the near future...

Monkey,

Did you get it (the eternity)....how is it? I really want to know?!?!?!?!

Yes, I did! I like it well enough, but I'm not too fond of dripping so I don't use it that much. It's really well made, and all parts seems to be made from stainless steel as far as I can tell (maybe except those things that the wire fit into to go onto the negative and positive power posts). The selling point for me was that it has an ego tank mode, so you can bring back all the ego tanks you put away when you discovered other systems (like the Vivi Novas :D).

Even though I don't drip often, I really think this thing is a great device for people who like to drip, and also you can just swap out the dripping with the tank system to take with when you go out. It holds approximately 30 to 40 drops I'm told, but I think that depends on the size of the wick you're using. I put 3mm wicks on that, and I think I can drip about 30 drops before it starts to leak. I think you may have to experiment with this to find the limit. Anyway, sorry I wrote so much.

In summary, I like it a lot for what it is. I think it's worth the money if you love dripping, and if you were always wondering what to do with the old ego tanks.

Thanks for the review monkey. I like to drip when I'm at home. My sis has all my old tanks. I love my pheonix and my rainbow. A new shop in town is giving me some new RBA's to test out for them. I've befriended the owners. One is the A7 I think, and the other is something with some sort of air flow controll worked in with it. I cant remember what they called it. After I'm done with those, I think I will pick up an eternity then.
Funny, they asked me to come work for them yesterday. Hmmm....if I had the time for a part time job....it would be my dream job.

Wow, if there were any reputable vape shops in my city, I'd work for them part time! But, as it is, there is only one right now, and I hear not so good things about them, and they only cater for noobs. I also heard they gave out misinformation in the past.

I wish more vape shops would move out west. I sometimes wish I could walk into a store and hold the items in my hands before buying them.

This shop is just getting started, but they really want to get into selling RBAs and such. I think they opened early October, late September. They are really customer oriented. They even let you try the flavors they carry before you buy them...and the devices.

We have 4 now with in about a 10-15 mile radius. Let's see...there's electronicstix, vapor mania, riverwalk and a new one roomy has been to, but I haven't yet.

So I have an "issue" with my Odysseus. You know that sound an atty makes right after you take a dry hit? That extended hiss at the end, where you know that you made a mistake because you didn't keep the wicks wet? I'm getting that. But the flavor tastes spot on, and I don't have reason to believe that it is dry. :blink: Coil is pretty fresh. I rebuilt it this morning, and just did a rinse since I changed flavors. But it has been an "issue" for a few days now. I am not sure if I just became aware of it or what. Maybe I'll try silica wick next build.. yeck.. silica.

Does the airflow control one look somewhat like a phoenix? If it does, it sounds like a fatty clone. If you don't like it I can send a few bucks your way for it :laugh: I've been meaning to try one.

I actually switched back to silica on the Penelopes. I know. It's sacrilegious.
