My 7.5 month VB is considerably darker than your 5.5 month VB. I think it has far more to do with the nic content than the extra 2 months of aging. Mine has been this dark for a long time.

Yeah, the extra nic would definitely darken it more.. That, and how you store it. My juices go into a tackle box that then goes into a closet..

...that goes into a bedroom. That goes into a house. That goes into a city. That goes into a country. That goes into a continent. That goes into a planet. That goes into a universe. That goes into ...

Hmmm...what's next? :confused:

An alternate universe where I actually like VB?!

The next dimension.
Considering there is no proof about another universe or alternate.. Then again proof isn't always needed but the math just isn't there :)

I know we've been talking about microcoils and kayfuns, etc. I just wanted to finally say the right device came in. :)

Not as pretty as some of your stuff guys but definitely happy!

I need to replace some long wicks on some top coil clearos because they changed the material on the most recent ones (silica). Is there some threaded wick that someone can suggest? The one I like is super absorbent and shreds a bit, while the one I dislike takes a while to absorb the juice and doesn't shred. I would appreciate any help with this.

So, you want a rather low quality wick which shreds easier than a more durable, high quality wick? That is an unusual, but specific request. I dig your decisiveness. Try The House of Vapor bulk silica wick. Very good price. I got some in recently and didn't like it because it "shredded" easier than I prefer. Probably perfect for you.

I don't really want it to shred, it's just that from the ones I have used so far, the shredding type seems to be the most absorbent. I would prefer that it doesn't shred as long as it's very absorbent and doesn't burn. Any suggestions?

You can go with cotton but then you can't dry burn. Or ekowool.

I would like to be able to dry burn. What options do I have left?

I've never bought threaded wicks, and used the ones included in my fluxomizers from GotVapes. They suddenly changed the material and I noticed it took much longer to absorb the juice, while the ones before would fully absorb it in a matter of seconds. I just would like to avoid dry hits if possible.

Well Neo...introduce us to your new friend!!!

Siglelei Zmax v5 in Stainless Steel. had the same in black, but it was a mistake. The vendor tried to correct it and sent me the black again. Told me to keep it and he'd send the SS free of charge. Thing works great! Menu system is easy, no misfires, connection seems solid. Has a battery meter on the OLED screen and can charge USB devices via usb with a neat little adapter they included. Gimmicky, but if my cell is dying, i can charge it with my mod battery =D

RSST on top. Works ok, but i think I have a little farther to go with rebuildables. Tastes good then starts tasting like crap. Using 400 SS and 30g wire. reading at 2.0ohms. We'll see what happens. ALways have my dependable cartotanks just in case!

The one I linked you to is quality. It won't burn. I like the silky stuff that doesn't shred at all. There's so many variants of silica, I could go on and on. Check eBay. Lots of it there.

Try ekowool. I've never used it but many here have. As far as I know you can dry burn it. It's been pretty well received.
