Just threw down at RTS....They've got FW now....That ding dang LorAnne's Creme Cheese Icing is gonna take more work.....

ECX has a good price and their LA does come in sealed original bottles ;)

Bo is sick with a fever and stomach bug so he has missed the holiday entirely, poor guy! :( Hoping no one else gets it. Ain't nobody got time for that!


***Still curious about Salem's new flavors!!*** ;)

I was just reading about a vicious stomach bug that was imported here. Resistant to antibiotics. Me too on my new flavors! :lol: I have 14 of them and it will take a little time.

I just discovered (as expected) that the leads on my pre wrapped coils are too short for rebuilding the KSM OCC heads, working fine on the rba deck tho. Guess I'll need a spool of kanthal for those. Anyone care to clue me in on what I need for a 6 wrap that will be 1.2'ish ohm? Is there more to it than just wire gauge?

They do have different lengths at FT but, a spool of wire is probably not a bad idea for you.

Got some of the Lime Tahity and the Lemon Pokey posted....Anyone put together a % recipe with those flavours yet?????

With the advances in vapor production as of late I'm cutting my max flavour % to 12/13%....I was in that range previously but got drug back too 20% land by clone recipes...and yeah....Cloning Mother's Milk this week...

Salem mentioned adding 10% total H2O to the mix....Last on the VC and Snake Oil I did so....Mind you I just calculated it in my head and poured it in at the end....So it might be all frigged up!!! The Snake Oil was killing the wick in the new Plasma....couple days and it was gunked for good...Day 3 or 4 now and the wick and coil look OK....Snake Oil is also much lighter than before...10% made the flavour pop just a shade to much....I'll be adding 3% H2O next go....Judging the before and after H2O on the VC I'll add @5% water to it next go....Seems to add coil life and flavour...

Hoping everyone enjoyed the Easter Holiday!!!

I use the Lemon and the Lime Tahity from 5-7% in recipes. DH vapes a Lime Tahity and Peppermint mix with the Lime at 7% and the Peppermint at 2% his adv for years now.

I do keep a batch of my base premixed at 60/10/30 and another at 65/5/30. The one that I use depends on which flavors that I am using. Glad that you are liking the DSW as much as I do.

Salem what's DSW???? Trying to get my brain in gear but all I get is grinding when I push in the clutch!!!!!! Distilled ?????? Water maybe....I use RO filtered though I do have a gallon of distilled....On a whim I added a little into the Mini Nauty filled with Purple Haze....Much better now!!! The haze tastes great but a little to much for an ADV...

Gotta hit the beach and get my Cub Cadet for a little scheduled service and an oil seal for the engine output....Looks like a long day of driving....

Brush pile finally cleaned up...sure woulda been easier if I coulda just bon fired it!

Yes Dee, that would be distilled water, which I will get and try out. That leads me to another question. Salem, do you take any special care with your DSW after you open it? Store it in the fridge? Anything I should know? I've always kept my PG/VG premixed in a 200ml bottle at 50/50, it's always worked well for me, I can just add DSW to it.

Taste Your Juice | THE CARBON-40 FROM MADVAPES From my old buddy Hoogie....no price or specs....Looks like a DNA 40....Pretty sexy with those wooden ends as well....Kinda reminds me of my old Dugout....now the Dugout is a true mechanical if there ever was one!!

That carbon 40 might have to be my first box type, that is pretty cool looking. Of course i like the 18650.

Yep, I forgot that you use RO water

I keep mine in a bottle like this without refrigerating. 32 oz. Cylindrical Sample Bottle with 28/400 Dispensing Cap | U.S. Plastic Corp.
Been doing it for years with no issues at all.

Their shipping is a little high for just one item but, MFS carries the bottles and yorker spouts as well. I use those bottles for my VG and PG as well. Very easy to dispense from without making a mess.

Mrs Wharf and I were in SF in for Valentine's day in '04 and the Dead were playing at the Warfield. That was after they were The Others Ones which of course they were the Grateful Dead until Jerry died. Then they were Furthur (named after the bus Ken Kesey and the Merry Prankster took to DC) after the Dead, until their hiatus. Then they became the Grateful Dead again for a 3 night fare well in Chicago in July, which I didn't get tickets to :(... But I know you guys knew all this already.

Anyway Joan Osbourne was playing with them and she left the stage and this guy comes with this blonde curly hair but I couldn't make out his face. He stated singing Lucy Lucy and it was Sammy. I kinda cracked me up but he sang it will and behaved himself.... And Wavy Gravy was sitting right in front of us the whole night, he was great to talk to.... It was a great V Day :D
