Okay, who has MBV Rainbow Sherbet? Besides me, obviously. Clearly I have it, as evidenced by the fruity cloud floating just above my head.

My favorite fruit vape was Unicorn Blood by Fuzion Vapor. Alas, another of my boutique faves has fallen victim to MBV mixology.

She's five days old, so I figured I'd give the Sherbet a go while my Butterscotch, Dulce de Leche, and Maple Pecan frolicked together in a nice warm UC bath. Glad I opted for the steel tank on my Kayfun, as this juice is heavy on the citrus. I'm tasting an uncannily accurate representation of raspberry, orange, and lime. The lime is at the forefront, but experience with DIY'ing MBV's Mt. Dew (er... Extreme Soda) with Ecto Cooler has taught me that the lime will mellow out a bit over a few more days. If it lasts a few more days, that is. Short life expectancy on this one. Do note that this flavor is definitely zingy enough to be a potential plastic-cracker.

Cracker or not, it's pretty yummy if you like the real thing. No cool hit, though, which was a bit of a downer. Otherwise excellent. Nice palate-cleanser. Worth a try when it shows up on the menu.

No, this was the free sample I got with my latest order. I have been mixing Extreme Soda + Ecto Cooler for a while now, so those two flavors were immediately apparent to me when I first vaped this. There's also a hint of raspberry though, which I'm betting will "ripen" as the juice matures and the citrus flavors mellow out (my Extreme Cooler juice needs about two weeks before it stops tasting like Pledge and starts tasting like citrus magic).

This stuff tastes exactly like rainbow sherbet, and I've vaped myself into a full-blown 12mg headache over here because of it. :facepalm:

Good pre-Friday mornin' my MBV friends :)

Got some pretty decent rain throughout the night, was expecting to hit a couple blocked low water crossings on my way in this morning. Apparently didn't come down quite that hard so I made it in about 10 minutes early, first time in many-many months. I usually am one of those always 5 minutes behind type :laugh:

Oh and Happy Halloween too....

for those folks who "soak their coils", is there something other than wudka that works, something non(drinkable) alcoholic?


Hot tap water works but kinda slow. I place some of my bases in mt ultro sonic cleaner when doing juice steeping and 125F for everal hours work real well.

Some utube videos show washing under a stream of water in the sink or shower but two which I power washed failed soon after. Replacement wick and coil assemblies are dirt cheap from Fasttech and many take that route. I have plenty of Kanthal,Silica and time so if water soak does not work I just rebuild.

I have been searching for ways to make my vaping more simpler...Not having so many tanks going at one time cause I like to change flavors a lot. Well I have found it with the IGO L dripper I got. I love it! I am home 90 percent of the time and with this 10 drops will give me over a half hour of good vaping time and then I can easily change my flavor! No more 6 or 7 tanks floating around!

I am keeping a couple of tanks for the times I actually leave the house but this should cut down on my budget even more cause I would be going through so many cartomizers then I used too. I do agree though they are not very good for travel but for around the house they are great!

i really need to get one and learn how to use one of those.......which i believe means learning how to make my coils not taste weird. i have so many active tanks, and 5, soon to be 6 pv's. like you i like to change flavors often, but have my large protanks full of my every day'ers.

i plan on rebuilding real soon, just trying to figure out the best way to extend coil life before i do that (and so i can show a friend how to do it, also). i just lack any "mechanical abilities" (much like the ability to write in English :facepalm:), so i've been reading alot. i can actually build horizontal coils, just can't find "the best" material to use. those vertical coils are looking promising. :thumb:

i think we should all have a moment of silence...one of the saddest events in the history of mankind was announced earlier in the week. yup, i'm talking about...the breakup of...the jonas douchebags! :lol:

Hope and Prayers for Dusty today! a Gentle Giant, in his own right, he deserves to be back amongst the employed! :nun:

and as much as kelli enjoys today, and for the wonderful, marvelous, gorgeous and sweet lass that she is, i hope you have a beautiful and happy day today, miss k! :angel:

and to brooklyn steve, you uploaded the humble pie complete filmore tapes this morning...hallelujah, muchas gracias, salamat po and thank you, thank you, thank you! :wub:

now i have to figure out a way for a new MBV order, so i can try rainbow sherbert, thanks to retrox! :vapor:

good morning and HAPPY HALLOWEEN! mvb-ers!
I'll be clowning around tonight (and the rest of the weekend too I think)

our local fire house does a haunted house and as it turns out.. they can always use an extra volunteer or three for the festivities. YEAH! couple miles from home - respectable Halloween weather

Shortly, when the coffee and motrin kick in, I'll be digging through the halloween closet for my clown suit - yeah.. you read right.. a whole walk in closet dedicated to my fave time of the year.

If there are 4 nights that they'll have me, I hope I have 4 outfits that have pockets for my vape gear! (and my mvb cards) I know the clown suit does.. I call my clown *Pockets*

Tomorrow night it's supposed to rain.. so either swamp thing or the zombie lizard girl outfit should work - wet I don't mind.. wet and cold.. not so much but it's supposed to be warmish out in the evening.. should be fun.

yall have a spooky day!

I'd probably be followin' this closer if the Rangers would have made it....

I got to go to a rangers Red Sox game when in Texas last time. Man ranger stadium is one impressive venue. I quite enjoyed the 700000 sq in had screen they had going on and the sound system was phenomenal.

An easy to follow how to video.

Vapor Lady Lounge Rebuild a Protank Atomizer, eVod Atomizer A New Way - YouTube

Best way to extend coils and wicks (not cotton) is to dry burn them however Evods,T3, AROs and others that use a rubber insert(insulator) are subject to having the rubber burnt (charged) if the leads get to hot so great care must be used to never let it get that hot.

I torch the Kanthal ,Silica or Ekowool prior to the build. Great thing about RBAs and AGA T2s is that there is no danger of burning any rubber / silicon insulators . SS mesh wicks in T2s are really easy to clean and dry burn.

so on my drive into work, a truck honked at me. I roll down my window. He asks ' you gonna pass that over?' Lol I'm like its an electronic cigarette, it won't get you high lol. He said something about how I didn't expect to get a laugh on my drive. I laughed. It was weird. This is why I want a very simple cigalike..

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. This is why I love my eroll. :)

most of us always notice! ;)

for those folks who "soak their coils", is there something other than wudka that works, something non(drinkable) alcoholic?

for those who use a high vg content juice, does your e-juice caramelize around the coil? or do your coils gunk up quicker" i used to use 80pg/20vg MBV juices, but have switched to 50/50 and even 20/80. i've noticed that the juices get dark very fast in the tanks. has anyone else noticed this?

oops, i'm vaping a non-MBV, so i won't say what it is. :vapor::blush:

I still can't decide what works better - Everclear or isopropyl alcohol. It seems to depend on how long it's been since I've cleaned things.

YMMV, but the higher vg and darker juices seem to gunk coils faster for me. I pretty much stick with 65/35 on my MBV juice - but most of my favs are 4 or 5 on their "darkness" scale - and that means fast gunk, therefore more cleaning.

Well all, I am going to try to call it a night, I have never been to bed before 12:00am so this is going to be a tough night. I had to take a 3 hours assessment today, well it only took me 2 hours, I was the first out of the door. I passed the assessment that was required by the company I will be interviewing with tomorrow, so wish me luck, I really need this job, I really do not want to have to sell my bike, I would be heart broken if I had to do that.

Much, much luck, Dusty.
