Getting ready to pick up the following flavors:
TFA: French Vanilla,Green Apple,Juicy Peach,Watermelon
VZ SC: Black n Mild
Hangsen: 555,Desertship

Any advice on these choices or opinions? Also any flavors I should pick up.I was thinking about trying the TFA pralines and cream but couldnt find any reviews of it.Also any other good TFA flavors I should pickup from WL? Thought I might pick up few more since they are so cheap :) If anyone knows any good coupons for VZ or ECX that would help out a lot too because I need to pick up some FA Virginia from ECX.

Just to add as side note I have a skoo 808d kit from smoktek and mini nova with extra heads that I would trade
for some DIY flavors or supplies if anyone is interested let me know before I decide if they are worth putting up in the classifieds.Thought I would give my fellow juicers a chance first :D I wont be able to trade them till the 5th of Feb thats why I havnt put them in the classifieds yet ,thought I would test water here first .Cant wait to hear if I made some good flavor choices or not Thanks guys :)

Hey Will, did you win a contest?

Why 555 if your already getting B&M? A little Caramel with AP and you got 555.

Do you have decent quantities of the basics? Like 30 mls of Vanilla, Honey, Caramel, Peanut or PB and a sweetener? AP, EM, MTS-VP, TA, BW and Koolada are good to have on hand also. If your ordering from ECx some Capella's Chocolate Fudge Brownie might be good to have. While there, Oakwood, Flash, Whiskey and Peanut or Nut Mix would save on shipping seeing as they're hard to get and it's all in one place.

Looks like you'll be having some fun mixing time by the end of the week. :)

Why did you ask if I won contest ? I aready have some EM and some vanilla and nut flavorings and forgot to add that Im going to get some caramel and koolada too.Ive never used AP.If I got some how should I mix it with a caramel to get a good 555?What caramel would you recommend ?And as far as honey I have VZ SC HFC but no honey flavoring on its own.I used to vape dekang 555 and figured the hangsen 555 would be similar .

I've heard good things about the Hangsen 555. I haven't tried it, but plan on getting it when I can afford an order. I don't think I agree on the B&M + caramel + AP = 555. Like I said, I haven't tried the Hangsen one, but none of the 555s I've had have been chocolately, and to my tastebuds that's the dominant flavor in the B&M.

Thats what Ive heard about the B&M as well .The Dekang 555 I used to vape had a lot of nutty flavor to it and I think I would rather just get the Hangsen 555 and then tweak that with a little caramel if needed .I plan on just using the B&M as its own stand alone flavor . Is the B&M a dark color or light? I would assume its dark .

Update to order,Not getting black n mild or desert ship. Getting FW caramel candy and ecto cooler instead that way I can get all my flavors from ECX and WL and save on not paying shipping to get others from VZ. I already have extra bottles of VZ HFC and VFC for trade for any other VZ SC Flavors if anyone is interested let me know :)

" Why did you ask if I won contest? "

You said you had some stuff to trade, but not until the 5th. Sounded like you won the stuff and were waiting for it to be delivered.


" Ive never used AP. If I got some how should I mix it with a caramel to get a good 555? "

For 15 mls
1 drop Tobacco Absolute PGA diluted per 15ml
10% B&M Tobacco
3% Acetyl Prazine (5% pg)
3% Peanut Butter
4% Original Caramel

I have read that FW concentrates are lighter than FA & TFA. You need more to get the same amount of flavor than the others.

Yeah Ive been reading some threads and saw the same thing.Are there certain flavors such as ecto cooler that TFA doesnt offer that are worth getting even if I do need to use more? ECX sells them for around 4.50 I think for 30mls which is a great deal.Even if I need say 15 to 20 percent on the ecto or other flavors I cant get from TFA thats not bad considering how many bottles I can make with 30mls :)It seems from most peoples opinions the caramel candy from FW is better than TFA caramel.Thats why Im curious if I can better tasting fruit flavors from FW than the TFA than the ones I might get .I would rather have better taste even if it means a little more flavor needed than vice versa.

For future reference, ECX has Black Mile, which is pretty close to VZs Black and Mild. One of my faves.
