Generally I vape about 20-30% VG to PG so a 25/75 VG/PG Blend works for me.
My go to strength is 18mg
I tend to hit mostly sweeter tobacco (RY4s / Applewoods etc / fruit style vapes with an emphasis on flavor (so heavy)
A good butterscotch candy vape would also rock!

And if you can somehow manage to replicate VR's Mystic Cherry, Cleo will buy anything and everything from you regardless of what color it is but 2 if they're purple (at least until Guss re-creates the magic again)

Off the current topic (but please continue to post your preferences)

I am willing to give anyone who can help me solder wire on to the end of the 510 to Go-go stainless adapter.
I made a mod already (previous pages) and my first attempt was great, it fired and I forgot about that part, thought it was done, so I moved on to cleaning up the case, wiring the LED and generally making it solid.

Now it won't fire. I figured I "broke" something so I took it all apart down to the basics. Even removed the button, to see if that was the issue, nope.

No matter what I do I am getting inconsistant readings from the connector. Sometimes I get nothing, 1.2, 3.7 and back to nothing. My initial solder connection wasn't that great but I just figured I'd redo it later. Well it's later and it still isn't working right.

I think my problem is a poor solder job, I am having a heck of a time getting the solder to "stick".

If someone with some experience soldering this type of connector could help I'd be willing to "pay" with a free set of Black Cartos. Links to the right solder and flux, tips on what wattage I should be using for the iron, anything that might help.
If it works for me, you get the freebie, you can post, PM me or email me at eric at gormly dot com

It's driving me nuts and I have so many ideas, all I need to do is get over this hurdle.
Note, I can solder and figure out wiring on advanced buttons, LCD and all that so this is just embarrassing , but I need help.

For your eJuice purchases which "base" do you prefer to go with flavors:

A: 100% PG
B: 100% VG
C: 50% PG 50% VG
D: 25% PG 75% VG
E: 25% VG 75% PG

For your flavorings:
A: Heavy Flavor (Taste the juice a lot)
B: Medium Flavor (Somewhat taste the juice)
C: Light Flavor (Taste of the juice is just noticeable, almost like an aftertaste)

Flavor Types:
A: Fruity/Berry Lighter tones (Berries or all types)
B: Tobacco
C: Deeper & Heavier tones (Chocolate, Coffee, Cola)

Lastly is 18mg good enough as a Juice nicotine level.

Thanks!
Eric

I seem to like 100% PG best, but I would like to experiment with 70/30 or 65/35.

I like light to medium tobacco flavors and 24mg.

Eric,

Any word on the pre-filled cart juice? I would love to be able to get the juice or be able to order the pre-filled carts. Or even better, if you can make a juice that's close in flavor and cheap and I'll buy a lot.

Eric,

deadlands, I do not order prefilled carts (although the colored cartos came with juice) because personally (and this is just an opinion, not based on anything but a gut feeling) I do not trust the Chinese safety regulations (none it seems) I would rather stick my head in a vat of bleach than put anything in my body that came from a Chinese factory.

This isn't racist, or any reflection on the Chinese people (who are wonderful people who work waaaay too hard), it is a reflection of their somewhat murky economic situation, corners are cut, safety is a corner. I do not know what they use as juice, I don't know if they are using 99.9% pure PG or VG or Nicotine. I have been lied to, sent wrong product and all kinds of other things that would make your head spin. This doesn't mean their stuff isn't safe, just that I don't feel safe and If I don't feel safe, I am not going to sell it.

They may indeed use quality ingredients but one thing the US has over China... is safety and a heightened concern for end product health hazards.

Now, I am working on making juices and I haven't yet come across a recipe that replicates tobacco, but when I do I will offer it and once I get all my juices figured out properly I will prefil any carto with any flavor.

If you have a recipe of tobacco that you know of I will make it for you and fill the carts.
In fact if anyone has a recipe they like, please share it and I will try my best to replicate it and get it to you inexpensively. Eventually (soon) I hope to be able to make favorite recipes and sell them in 125ml bottles and save you all LOTS of money.

New Product Alert:

Go-go Carto Cleaning Kit
Credit for this goes to mohawkx (great guy, great conversation)
Contains 1: Luer-Loc Control Syringe (10ml)
2 Cleaning Tubes with fitting grommet

Pictures coming soon.

This will allow you to clean the carto without removing the filler.
I will post more details when I have stock. I expect just a few business days as it is USA sourced.
it will be on the website later today for backorder (see below)

My Price will be: $5.49 (this depends on how much the grommets cost me)
It will go DOWN once I get cheaper sources, but it's still cheaper than anyone else.

Keep in mind, don't clean them too much, I do have a business to run


New Product Alert:
10ml Luer-Loc Syringe
(note: not a control syringe as above kit)
Price: $1.59 (no needle that's why it's cheap)
This is one of those items I can make some "profit" on so I can keep the other stuff lower
Also a few days out for delivery

Also I have an ordering Update.
I am opening up backorders. My cart isn't sophisticated enough to handle backorders listed properly so all products that are not in stock will be clearly labeled as such.
Later today all products will be available for ordering, anything on back order will be clearly marked.
Anything back ordered that includes other items will be shipped FREE. Meaning if you order a black carto pack (in stock) and blue carto pack (not in stock yet), you do not pay any extra shipping when the blue comes in.

Your hard earned money is never at risk, full refunds are given at any time no questions asked for backorders.

LOL New test.

Go-go Tank:

Not my idea, see:



He sent me his link and I just made one, his is probably MUCH better
(but I am working on getting proper parts LOL)

Just in case you don't now what this is, it is just a tube with rubber (or plastic) grommets with bore holes that fit the Go-go cartomizer.

The cartomizer has two small slices into the metal on either side to let liquid to keep carto filling always wet.

Note: I don't intend to sell this, it's someone else's mod...

 

[GoodDog]

Chopper made me one and I'm luvin' it! I've wanted to try a tank mod but not for the $25 most vendors are selling them for, and they're not for the GoGo.

What do you think of the rubberized batteries you recently got in?

If you are referring to the battery in the post above, that's a self made rubberized battery

I have a bunch of self made colors also. Haven't really put them through any real testing as far as scratch resistance and stuff like that, but the rubberized is pretty sweet! I did a metallic Blue that looks awesome (to me)

Not really sure if anyone would be interested in painted batteries, they look super and can be done on request but it's not factory. If I can perfect the dipping process, we're all set though.

I did a multicolored metallic bluish red swirl one for a friend and she loves it, she said it looks better than any factory color I have. LOL.

I understand, that is a bit of a concern for me as well. But we are still putting china made stuff in our bodies with the atomizer coils and wicking materials, who knows what chemicals are on those components. I only asked because I thought you had mentioned you were getting a sample and you asked if we wanted pre-filled carts. I really liked the flavor in what came in the pre-filled carts I got and want something similiar that is fairly cheap.

If you have a recipe of tobacco that you know of I will make it for you and fill the carts.

I wish a knew a recipe. I haven't experimented with DIY juices yet. I'll let you know if I come across anything.

New Product Alert:

Go-go XL battery - 3000mAH

It can power your Go-go 2.3 times longer than the standard and awesome Go-go battery. It has a Removable Battery! You can add your own 2600mAH or 3000mAH battery when battery life is ended. Button is improved internal design.

This is an experimental Battery, (I call it Go-go XL, it's not Kanger) it will require my adapter to work. Development is in process to make this with Go-go threading but will take a while and I need more investment money to get it done. It is experimental only in the sense that I haven't tried it out yet. I am certain it will work with the Go-go carto (because I have the adapters)

I have another model coming that looks different, more like a regular tube mod but that will not be here for a while I think.

I have only 10 of these coming in and they are on the website for order now.
The cost is high $29.99 due to small test order.
If you want to get in on it, order it now, it will ship when it comes in and is tested.

Guaranteed refund if any issues.

For your eJuice purchases which "base" do you prefer to go with flavors:

E: 25% VG 75% PG

For your flavorings:
B: Medium Flavor (End result. If it is a juice I am cutting with unflavored juice then I like heavy to cut it to medium)

Flavor Types:
A: Fruity/Berry Lighter tones (Berries or all types)
(My all day vape is Kryptonite from GoodEJuice. I do also enjoy peach and grapefruit on occasion.)

18mg would be fine. I usually vape at 12, but can always cut an 18.

I cannot wait until my next order to pick this up and give it a try. I would love to extend my go carts a bit as I cannot stand the taste usually beyond 3-4 days, but messing with the filler is just way too much of a pain for me. This is just awesome.

 

[Bayemon]

I did a metallic Blue that looks awesome (to me)

I am not a colors guy, but that really does look awesome. I might even consider a metallic red one to take to football games. Hmmmmm.

Yea, it's pretty awesome and I have claimed it! (although I can make another)

Do you have a favorite team? I can make you a custom wrap team for the battery if you like.
My best friend has a printing business and he is getting in a custom printer that does vinyl graphics and cuts to size. I am going to offer this service in the future. I happen to like the Miami Dolphins (yes, long suffering fan) and he is making me one as soon as the new unit comes in.

 

[Cisme]

Customized batteries?! I wonder how one with cats would sell......at least one.

You mean like this?

 

[Cisme]

You mean like this?

oh wow! But I'm thinking red or blue battery.

 

[gormly]

Not sure it works unless it's white?
Note: Vinyl wouldn't be metallic in color.

Here's mine that I am getting:

 

[davedbc]

Something up with the website today? When I went to it this morning the products page seems to be "down" for lack of another term. On the home page the products listing is gone (although the learning section is still there) and when I select any of the product catagories from the home page (not the sidebar) or the 'products' tab at the top of the page it just perpetually loads (or, more specifically I just get the spinning icon). It could be a work thing since I was checking during my lunch but I don't remember that being the case before - and it hasn't been an issue with other vaping sites (both hardware and juice). Thanks - and don't mind the crazy in the corner if it turns out to be just me FWIW, we're on IE ver. 8 over here and I tend to use FireFox at home.
