About time to mix some more Purilum Sweet tobacco if i want to give it adequite steep time. I think Iwill try a little with Flavorah Red Apple today. It has done really well with every fruit I have tried.
Any suggestions for percentages on the apple? Smells very strong.

Flavorah is stronger than some other brands, or can be.

Depending upon how much of an accent flavor you might want this to be, I'd start out around .75% (that is 3/4 of a percent.. just didn't want you to miss the decimal point) let it steep for a day or two and then check it and see if you want to add some more..

It's just a suggestion for where to start.. good luck.

If they rule it was the vape battery that caused the fire it won't be good as it will literally spell the first death..
No. It won't be good. There has been incidents in the past but no deaths. Guy was 38. Same age as me when I started. It's sad.

Didn't they fix this by adding yet more chemicals to the paper and the chemicals are not exactly safe? My memory may fail me on that I seem to recall that the self-extinguishing paper creates additional health concerns.
The Irish study was over 05-14.

Effectiveness of fire-safe cigarette laws still unclear
"Laws requiring cigarettes to be made with a fire-......ing design may have reduced deaths from cigarette-related fires in the U.S. but the evidence is weak and inconsistent, researchers say.

The study found no evidence that so-called fire-safe cigarettes reduced the number of fires overall or fires started by cigarettes in the states where they were mandated, leaving the jury still out on whether these laws are a good way to protect people, the authors report in Injury Prevention."

I agree. But the cigarette industry as well as the pharma industry own a large part of the government. Those are two toes that the vaping industry has stepped on big time. Any incident is replayed by the government run media as much as possible. Public opinion on vaping is not good right now and this is going to make that much worse. The government doesn't care if we die, in fact us living longer puts a drain on the system. They do care about their money and agenda. Vape companies who cut corners and knowingly put out sub par products should be held accountable. Not positive, but I don't think this was someone putting a sub ohm tank on a hybrid mech. It is tough to find mechmods in B&Ms anymore. What you do see a lot in shops is Smok products. What sucks is most new people to this end up going for the cheapest devices made by the companies with the worst QC issues i.e Smok. If these companies are not dealt with I believe it could be the death of the entire industry.
One more interesting statistic about cigarettes...
Smoke Free Kids: Smoking and the Environment
600,000,000 trees a year. They don't care if anybody on the planet can breathe. As long as they get paid.

EDIT: Considering the environmental impact of cigarettes, you are not just smoking away your own bealth, but also helping to destroy the planet for future generations.

VGOD and the unregulated squonker have reintroduced cheap mechs into the BMs around here. My guess was that he fell asleep on a mech in bed...

They are very effective. They are much more addictive and toxic now. The very effects they were aiming for.

Had a friend who fell asleep smoking. Had to go to the hospital. He burned his entire thigh. I have seen VGODs in B&Ms. I hope that they haven't started selling noobs mech mods again. I guess it wouldn't surprise me. Here it depends which part of town you are in. Outside of Chinatown nobody really sells mechs anymore or RDAs really. There are a few shops but they talk to people and make sure they know what they are doing. on the other hand I have seen one cat working at a B&M vaping a 4 wrap 18 guage dual on a VGOD. Don't want to know what that one ohms out at..

Thanks for the help. It smells very strong. I was going to start at 1%. I think I may actually try it at .5% at first. I am looking for an accent flavor and I don't want it ro overpower the PST.
