Hey....like the new av Dusty! I've been around, kind of spending some time researching tanks...and the hrs. pass by....plus trying to do some heavy duty fall cleaning and get rid of a lot of stuff I've been hanging on to for too many years. Multi tasking! :)

I noticed that as well and then you disappeared again for a few days. I wonder if they all got scared off! I'm glad there are new poster, but also miss the regular crew as well!!!! :(

Some of the mech mods are so inexpensive and look really cool....it's the unregulated part that scares me off....think I need some more experience before I venture there....but I sure do like the looks of them!!


Depending on what you are looking for...

Most VV/VW mods have a built in safety that will not allow you to "overdrive" a low ohm coil and most simply error at around 1.2ohms. I rebuild my ProTank heads right at that range 1.2-1.4 ohms and have my output nearly at the bottom 3.3-3.5v and it's an awesome vape. You need the amps to drive low ohm coils safely plus they last longer because the power is there, I'm not an expert on batteries, I just know what I can get out of mine safely ;)

Mechanical mods are a whole different breed, no safety features built in, there's no room for error when rebuilding coils, have to check every coil prior to use, but now you can go down the road of sub-ohm coils...

Hope this helps some, I can try better if it doesn't :unsure:

Hi all. A little crazy around here. Big oak tree in the back yard got
struck by lightning Thursday evening, and we fried a lot of electronics
in the process, as well as had a lot of electrical work to do as circuit
breakers were fried and there were open circuits. Luckily hubby is
an electrician. Anyway the rest of the evening I think I'm going to kick
back with some MBV Bananas Gone Nuts. Hope you all are doing ok!

Thanks! Yes, research can take time and is a good thing to do. Yeah, I have some cleaning to do around here, no more excuse that I don't have time because of work! Hmmm, wonder what other excuse I could use.... :p None I guess, well I'll get started on it tomorrow! :D

Glad it was only the tree! We get a lot of that around here, we have a bunch of pine trees that get harvested for Telephone Poles and they attract lighting all the time, my fathers big old Oak got him last month, split it right down the middle, the tree had to be at least 2 hundred years old, sad to see it leveled, it was a gorgeous tree and had some history, there was an old bicycle that someone had chained to it, the bike was from the 20's or 30's and hard become part of the tree and was up about 5 feet off the ground still had part of the chain hang there as well.

I started with the Halo G6 cig-alikes and quickly ordered 2 1300 Vision Spinners. I've used them since April, when I first got off the stinkies. They're starting to not hold a charge as long, and take longer to charge, so it was either get more twist type batts or upgrade. The spinners are great and have kept me cig sober for going on 6 months so I can't complain!! I probably would never have even considered the "P" at this point had my mother not left me a little money upon her death. I consider it a gift from her. She was thrilled I had quit and didn't live long enough to even see one of my set ups. She would approve! :D


Roonie....happy to hear the "P " will be there soon.....Ha.....what did you use before you decided to plunge into the big $$$$ one?
I am still fiddling with EGO- twists trying to decide what mod I would like. I almost make up my mind and then I read another review and think well maybe this one...no this one....Hmmmm ok this one....Grrrr....can't make up my mind !!!!!!!

Vaping MBV Cake (yellow) and MBV Banana in a couple of Evods this afternoon

They're both my DIY @ 12.5% 18mg 70/30 and steeped since June :p

Cake (yellow) is a dark reddish brown and they're both sweet and fan-f'ing-tastic

My Cake still tastes icky :( it's just got a strange dusty stale type taste to it. I haven't tried it alone but I've added it to things and it ends up ruining them.

Hmm...I actually have the VVV site page minimized and just pulled it up. I was looking at the Pyrex tanks. Which polypros do you like? I was looking at the inexpensive ones that are around $7.99. Are they ok or should I think of going with the ones that are a higher grade? I love the different color caps and tips too. I think they carry the tank tool also. Do you use one? Sorry for being off topic.....I'm rock'n some Shenanigans with a little extra milk chocolate added. It's yummmmm!!! Also, Blu-Moo with a little Lemon Goddess added is so fabulous....it doesn't just shine....it SPARKLES!!!


I have about 30 from VVV. They are indestructible. I love them :)

I've got the 4ml up to the larger 8ml VVV polypro tanks as well as the VVV pyrex tanks. They are great for being out and about. TBH, I've been working night shift, had a Boge clog, and changed cartos in the restroom sink MANY NIGHTS LOL I prefer the grommets, but I do have the caps for a really nice look =] If you have a needle tip for a squeeze bottle, they are magnificently easy to refill =]

sounds DELISH.....I am not good at DIY yet at all......will try this one....do you add any sweetener to the above or is it just straight up ?
You said sweet.....mine never seem to be sweet.

Straight no chaser. or sweetener.

I like my Flavor West/MBV as is.

blueberry cobbler with lemon sauce? Delicious :p Not that I like bakery vapes as most of you do LOL I mixed a TAD of lemon meringue pie juice with my MBV Lemon Drop and I had to wash it out... pie/pastry juice does not appeal to me :facepalm: I went back to Lemon Drop alone and it is delicious!
