I can only repeat what I've learned from others since I haven't been vaping for a full year yet. But I also don't think James would post that bit of advice unless it was safe. I've also read of folks vaping 3 year-old juice.

3rd order today?! :ohmy: You are an e-juice animal! :D

Please post a review of the Faux Hawk. I haven't read a good one posted here yet...

I agree, the thing I am most curious about is how long it's safe for? What about a 4 year old juice for example?
BTW: Faux Hawk is quite good, it's got a Hawk Sauce profile, just a bit different. I really don't think you would regret getting it.

It's smooth, has a lite tobacco taste. Any sweetness would be coming from high VG I have. To me it is the best tobacco eliquid I have tried. I just asked for that sample because I wanted to try tobacco one more time.

So strange i know someone who requested the same sample as you, same ratio and everything.
Freaking weird coincidence man.

I too will post a review of the Faux Hawk i get a bottle tomorrow.
I am insanely addicted to Hawk Sauce, more than i ever was on analogs.
I will review these too.
Udderly Nuts
Double Apple
Moon Dog
Sour Yum
Moo Juice

First time trying any of these juices.
Let us know what you think of moon dog. Mine still has that strange glue smell. I tried it anyways. Didn't taste like glue, just plain fruity. Boring. I'll try it again later.

I don't think I am very good at reviews, but here's my take on Faux Hawk...

It's got the mixed berry with tart and sour tones to it. I do get quite a bit of raspberry with it. You know how Hawk Sauce is definitely not an "Ice" flavor, but does have that bit of coolness to it? I get a little bit of coolness with Faux, but not as much as Hawk Sauce. Hope that makes sense :) Overall I really enjoy this one, I would re-order it in a 50ml.

Tucson, it's a dry heat
I'm going to weigh in on this. I think that although juice may not go bad after a year, it can taste stale. I tried some year+ juice and it had a stale taste to it. However, my unflavored VG base from RTS vapes has a 2-year expiration date. I really think it depends on the flavoring, the nic, the ratio of PG/VG, and how you store it.

You will be able to do it, and you will save money. Eventually, you'll need to buy new heads to replace the plastic bits because they get beat up over time and then the coil heads leak. But....it takes a long time for them to fail if you're careful with them :)

6 out of 9 heads are still working fine on my evods & protanks since early June.
I popped 2 coils dry burning them to clean them and the other was a dry hit when I runouta juice yuk.
These things last forever when you treat them right.
I always keep the parts so I can replace the grommets if they start to leak.

45 spares so I should be good to go for a few more days.

Anyone have a good video for rebuilding evods? I have around 60 heads that I'd love to reuse.

Your sig says a month and 19 days.. What are you doing to those poor heads?

When I collect 3-4 heads from changing flavors I soak them in a cup of scalding hot water that I refresh a few x.
I've been reusing the same 6-9 heads for a couple of months and they still taste great.
I dry burn them when they get cruddy and underperform and they be good as new.

Lordy Lordy Lord...

That video that teach linked shows how easy it is to dry burn them for a quick fix too :thumb:

Fruity like how?
How many flavor shots you get? your ratio of VG/PG and mg of nic?
Lol just try it. It just has a plain light sweet fruity taste.
12 mg 65pg/35vg, one extra flavor shot. Its only like a week or so old. It just isn't OMGFRUITGASMINMYMOUTH like whipped cream good ;)

So nothing like hawk sauce huh?
I got pg20/vg80 2 extra shots, so it might taste different than yours?:confused:
Fruity is not bad i guess.

Never had hawk sauce or desired to.
VG typically mutes flavor so..
Taste is subjective ;)

You might be surprised. I know my favorites have really thrown me for a loop, I gave Hawk Sauce a shot because it seemed like everyone liked it, but I did not have high hopes. It's not a favorites, but I do enjoy it and will most likely reorder when I get low.

It's not candy or fruit punchy as I worried based on the description. It's refreshing.
