Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part 5

[retired1]

Yeah, that was really weird. It's been linked in the past with no strange behavior. Not sure what was happening with it, but it was definitely beyond annoying.

 

[Debadoo]

Yeah, it's doing it to me, too. I think it's Deb's spreadsheet.

oh sure.......blame it all on me!! Sorry. When I did the plain tabs it didn't work this time. Weird how that messed everything up like that this time. Wish a simpler one was done, cuz it is very helpful. A lot of the ones that are on it, are ones I've never heard of. Thanks for fixin it darlin!

I can help it along with a question for the group...

I asked something similar in the stocking thread, but if all this got thrown out of court and all tax increases were reversed - Would there be any buyers remorse with your stocking up efforts?

Newp, not at all. I'm thrilled to have what I do, and mostly what I've stocked up on was nic. No regrets about that at all. But definitely an interesting question

 

[retired1]

Definitely weird. Like I said, it's been linked numerous times in the past with no issues. Ah well.

Truth is we are all after ya... No matter what goes wrong in the future will be "Your Fault"...

Re: DIY, Yup, figuring out percentages is the hardest part - especially between flavoring vendors. I'm using a lot of FlavourArt, and it seems much stronger than TFA (which I also use). Stronger, even, then Inawera and Hangsen. I'd love to have a spreadsheet that does conversions between vendors. How great would that be?!

Just made 30 mls of Peach Parfait and 100mls of Apple Cinnabun (@Kaezziel, that's what I call it in my head ). As there's no juice I like as shake-n-vape, it'll be a few days before I know how they worked out. Please, please, please let them satisfy this craving!

when trying to figure out a balance of % from dif brands,, i use 2:1 = i need 2 cap strawberry to = 1 fa strawberry. but i may not need sweetner with the cap as i might with fa.

 

[kross8]

Sometimes I take the recipes and figure out the volume from the %'s provided and mix the flavors in a separate bottle. Then I use them in my eliquid at a ratio I prefer - I have the proper flavors mixed to get the end results, but what I vape is at a very low ratio...

it also can save you time or volume of juice.. suppose you like a particular recipe only now and then,, instead of having a full batch,, you have the full 'premix' to mix tiny batches or big batches. i also like that you wont be going through so much vg/pg into those recipes when you are not using them for long periods of time.

lmao........well THAT is nothing new!

 

[Kenna]

I'll second this......and I bet Kenna will 3rd it!

3rd!

 

[Kenna]

Nevr try'd it sew I kin only "one" it.

It seems cleaner than kanthal. I don't use huge spaces, but when it's wrapped it has a natural space that occurs. And cleaner flavor.

Nope! I was trying to get to this point anyway.

I think someone in the TFA thread started a new one. No idea why.

I haven't noticed the spacing with the CM jig, but I haven't really looked either. Another thing I really like is that when I've forgotten to squonk and gotten a really bad burnt hit..... even a few times....... it doesn't linger.......I just squonk and keep vaping and it tastes good. and when I do get ready to dryburn and rewick...... the cotton is still juice colored, not really dark like it would be with kanthal

Yep, this!

Actually I did the full on stocking up in 2011. Probably only spent $200, maybe $300 since then.

So how could I regret vaping practically for free?

BTW, mama got a new TV & new family room couch this week with what you all spent on vape gear

Yep, that's me too...

Na. I like "old school" equipment. I don't need (or want!) 200 watts, and although I have TC capable mods, I like my power mode. I am comfortable with it. Yes, I have done some serious stocking, but I have no interest in this newer high watt, low ohm, airy stuff. The old school stuff is getting harder to find, so I'm good.

Me, too. I guess my Hex Ohms would be considered high watt, but I don't use them that way. I go 4 days between batt changes.

Sew... wear dew u go?

Ya'll are just too sophisticated and patient fer moi. If a recipe ain't S'nV, I don't vape it. Hell, at my age, I don't even buy green bananas anymo'...

Would there be any buyers remorse with your stocking up efforts?

Ain't no way I'm exhausting my vaping cache before it won't matter no mo'! My only vapin' related remorse is startin' smokin' way back when...

lmao........well THAT is nothing new!

Well, I can vouch fer dat, Lil' Sis!
