I'm looking at Flavor West's site now

Here are the flavors that are OOS @ FW:

Green Apple
Cinnamon Roll
Cookies and Cream
Cucumber Mint
Ecto Cooler
Orange
Snickers
Vanilla Cup Cake

That's it.

I don't understand the complexities of suppyling thousands of customers and I'm sure there are other factors involved in MBV's OOS phase besides supply but...bacon OOS? really?

If spurburry doesn't come back soon I'm going to be dealing with an angry woman here....the wife is actually back on cigs

i liked your post as i was reading it. then saw she's smoking cigs. >.< GET THAT LADY SOME SPURBERRY!! STAT!

Go bigger on the Sweet Cherry Bomb. Trust me.

I'm not a huge cherry fan normally, in candies and the like, but I bought it on my last order after seeing you guys talk about it. I like it because it has a Strong flavor. I only got 15 ml's and I think I'll buy a 30mL on my next order:) It still does taste kind of like a cherry bubblegum to me though. I like that, since I can't seem to find a good strong bubblegum juice anyways.

Mudslide's on my to try list. Could you elaborate on what you didn't like about it?

hmm..its a chocolately kahlua smell. it didn't taste as strong as it smells, and the taste was kind of in between chocolate and coffee. it doesn't taste bad. it's just not my style. i've seen people rave about it though.

Anyone know if you can use 28 Kanthal on EVOD heads (instead of 32?) One thing I noticed is that my first batch of rebuilt heads burn out (coils pop) when I try to dry-burn them.

You can but the problem is that you'll need more wraps to get to your target resistance. I'm guessing but I think a 6 or 7 wrap coil might only be around 1.6-1.8 ohms. If your target is 2.0 or greater you might need 8 wraps. And then the question is will X wraps fit in the space allotted? Do you want some 30 ga? I have like 100 ft

What battery/mod are you using to dry burn? Is it VV? If its an Ego use shorter pulses maybe?

I'm here, fell behind, but here!

I've been vapemeeting and dipping my toe in the dating world (yeah, that sucked) this weekend. Loving the DIY - I made my second bottle of MBV's Hazelnut Spread today. I love DIY-ing more than rebuilding, but my rebuilt pile o'heads is getting scarce. I'm gonna have to do some rebuilding next week.

I've tried 30 and it's hard to get the ohmms up and still fit. .5 ribbon will just make it, but I want to get some .4, I think that would work better.

Ok so I have noticed that some flavors taste better in carto tanks then in clearomizers. My latest discovery is Faux Hawk , Whiteout (which I just ordered a 15 ml bottle to try and love it!) and Dutch Apple Pie. My Banana Gone Nuts taste better in a carto too but I found that it just clogs it up too much which is a bummer.

I use the 65 pg/35 vg mx cause if I try to up my PG up it just dries my skin and hair like crazy even when I drink my water.

And then the question is will X wraps fit in the space allotted?

I got 7 wraps off 32g to fit ok.. haven't hit the limit, but that might be pretty close... maybe 8 if I get all Jedi and wrap crazy tight. 7 with anything thicker, not sure if you'll get there.

I used 30g with an evod head, 5/6 wraps and got 1.3 ohms. That's as low as I'd want to go personally. At 3.7 volts it would be drawing about 2.8-2.9 amps.

Nice :) 5/6 is about all I could do. I have studied the concepts of wrapping coils, I am actually quite decent with electrical concepts in general, I know how to check resistance, calculate amperage, understand safety and all that, I just can't wrap a coil well. :( That's the only part you can't learn by reading I guess. I do enjoy trying though, I get about 1 in 5 or so to look and work decent :)

Here is one I just wrapped... Sorry for the crappy quality. 32g, 7 wraps on a 3mm silica wick (needs a single 1mm top wick though to close the little gap to the post base). I have gorilla hands, and a bit of a the morning coffee shakes. And it bugs the hell out of me that coils 3 and 4 are a little borked.

I guess the trick is to not give a crap. Once wrapped, that wire is pretty sturdy, so I push it together, work it with a push pin... provided you don't chew up the wick, you can beat that coil up to get it tight and compact.

Now, a smaller wick, I might have issues. But I can wrap a 3 mm wick, and a 8 mm compound wick for my RDA... so that's all I need to worry about. :)

Hawk sauce :)

That's my 2nd favo...3rd...no 2nd favorite juice. I put some hawk sauce in a Protank and it had a slight plastic taste, so I put the same juice in a IGO and its wonderful...I blamed the Protank and soaked the head in vodka...hope that gets rid of that plastic taste.

My list of "favorites" is becoming very long. I can't get over how amazing Whipped Cream is! Glad I got a 30ml but a 50ml will be ordered when this hits half way.

Destroyed the Strawberry Shortcake and Bananas Gone Nuts this weekend. At our car meet last night some guys near us were talking about smelling waffles or something, I said its my Bananas Gone Nuts lol. Gave one a MBV card, he had a lot of questions. Everyone is always amazed at how good they smell.

I made Sweet Tarts @ 12.5% just like almost all my FW/MBV juices.
It tasted like semisweet dust.
I didn't know if it needed more or less flavoring so I tried upping 32 mls with another 1/2ml of flavor.
It sat for another week or two and now it tastes more like sweet tarts.
That's at about 15% now. I'm going to try bumping with another 1/2ml making it about 18%

Anyone have experience with sweet tart flavor in about 70/30?
