Oh! Thought you were having tank issues.
No, Lol just being sarcastic. I Can't wait to try some DIY flavors in the Merlin tank. Any specific mix that works well in it. I know some tanks are not good with 100%vg mix and will not wick well. I was thinking I would aim for maybe a 50/50 Pg/vg or maybe a 60/40 Pg/VG.

Just got my black one in today from subtank supply. No issues whatsoever. Beautiful tank. Not sure how I feel about the tinted glass though. It's a first for me. I guess I'll get used to it or Ivan replace it with the clear spare from my SS one

If you don't like the tinted glass, a ultrasonic clean will knock the tint film off. That's what happened to mine after the initial cleaning

I like the smoked glass look. A million times better that it comes with a spare tank. I just run hot water over it to clean as to not mess with the coating.

I've used a 70 VG in the tank without a problem wicking. I wouldn't be surprised if it could handle even more.

The diy mix I've been using in mine since I got it is 72/28 vg/pg and it wicks fine. It just so happens that the recipe calls for 28% flavoring which is pg.
Now that will be my next concern. I bought this from RTSvapes, and it doesn't say anything about what the base is. It says its 100% flavor. So would I just add however much I want in. Is it kind of like cooking. If it doesn't taste good just add more. Talking about only the flavoring NOT the nic.

Once I perfect the flavoring part of It, and it passes the taste test in the Kayfun, I will probably make it my main juice to use in the Merlin.

    It is kind of like cooking. I don't know what kind of flavors you got but most flavors aren't very good by themselves. It often times takes anywhere from three to eight different ingredients(flavors) to make a good recipe.

    Still no update on the shipping of my second merlin. I ordered it from efun on the 15th of last month. It shipped on the 25th and still isn't in the US. I should have just paid a little more and I would have had it a long time ago.

    Ouch. I got mine from subtanksupply and it didn't take more than a week. Too bad you can't just cancel the order and buy from another vendor.

    The only flavor I have now is the Lemon. I opened the bottle last night to smell it, and it smelled GREAT like a lemonade. I almost wanted to taste it straight it smelled so good. But to save my tongue and mouth I figured that wasn't a great idea. Lol.

    I think it depends what you're going for. I find with my tobacco flavors I can use a Ry4 from say TFA it's fine to simply mix at whatever percent, typically only 3-4 percent and I'm good to go.
