@pwmeek was it you that got the Siren 2 in the 2ml size. If so I've got the coil and wick down great. Thats if you need a little advice on getting it right. They really are a great atty. Yours has the same build deck as mine. Maybe they won't leak that much but you lick it up anyway so no worries. I'm using 28ga Kanthal and KGD and wick and vape great. The leak on the base is just around the edge and I just wipe them off everytime I fill them. I'm using about a 60vg/40pg blend. They don't leak in the 510 area at all just the edge.

Nope; I'm primarily an Aspire Nautilus user, with (relatively non rebuildable) BVC Kanthal and BVC Nickel coils. I find that the "Hollowed Out" replacement tank (SS gridded shell with a glass liner) seems to leak less than the stock tank, and it is MUCH less likely to break when (not if) I drop it on something hard. I have a pretty good supply of replacement atomizers, tanks, bases, gaskets, etc.

I do have four Ammit RTAs, but haven't got around to building anything on them yet. I mostly got them in case our favorite congresscritters cut us off from a supply of factory atomizers and other repair parts.

Well this is the coil that I have found to work the best for me MTL on my Siren2s. 28ga Kanthal.

I just looked up the Siren 2...why does a single coil MTL tank have to be 24mm? :( I'd love to put a gunmetal on my gray Pico.

Plus you can get the 2ml one and it is 22mm. They are the easiest top fill Ive seen. Just turn the cap 1/4 turn and comes right off. Has the same size build deck I'm pretty sure.

My thought for the New Year:

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved grave but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming "WOW, what a ride!"

Happy New Year everyone!

There is a 22mm version! Hot damn, and MVS carries it. I'm gonna have to do this.
And a review says the SS is more like a flat gray.

Eciggity has them cheaper I think. but not in SS. they have a 15% discount going but don't remember the code. the one I know is 10% off with reddit10. Well I found one 20%off NEWYEAR20 at eciggity.
All they have is black and blue but that makes them about $24.

Awwww. El Whacko enthusiastically says woof, woof!



When did you stop liking Ti?! I bought a roll, haven't used it yet, because you said it was better than kanthal. :grr:



I use ejuicemeup too. :thumb:

Work near a sink, it's just easier. Some people work in a baking dish or something similar in case there is a spill.

Don't work with the nic around kids or pets (and it sounds like you've cornered the market on kids :)).

If you get some nic on you, you will not shrivel up, convulse and die. The worst anyone has reported is a burning sensation. Just wash it off ASAP. Even my nonsmoker/nonvaper husband who can't keep his hands out of things had no reaction to contact with 100 mg/ml. Just made him wash it off. I used to be a bit paranoid of the stuff. Don't be paranoid of it, just respect it and you'll be good

You will be able to afford many more grand kids making your own juice.

Many holiday season sales are being posted here. ECF Suppliers' *Happy Holidays* Specials !

Except for nic, I measure employing the eyeball system since I don't use flavoring. Flavoring costs a lot. Make small batches until you find a recipe you really like, it saves money.

Have a "dump bottle." Made a horrid juice? Dump it in the bottle. As the bottle gets full, try it. I've seen a lot of people here say that one of their favorite juices was came from the dump bottle. Of course they can never reproduce it again but at least it was vapable in the end.
Always write down and save what recipe you made. A lot of sad stories about people who didn't follow that golden rule.

Last rule that I can think of off the top of my head is that you must report back here regularly on how you are doing with DIY. Not doing so is the only time we ban people from the porches. ;) Permanently.



Thank you! He did a most excellent job. :thumb:
I will have to try the dump bottle thanks

I don't have a dump bottle to make a crappy juice by adding another crappy juice...YUK. At juice being 10 bucks for 15mls here in small town at the computer store, I know a few who gladly take the 20ml tester juice I don't like. My only loss is the jug that now with DIY not getting a ongoing supply of jugs from ordering juices so I have to buy them when they run out.
Once I went into the program files "Breaktru Software" of the ejuicemeup, click to everything is alpabetical, delete the 2 files(.REC and .REC2) with the same name of the recipe you don't want then save everything into a folder as backup without the eJuice Me Up.exe file. When a update happens, save the entire contents into your backup folder minus the .exe, install the new update then delete everything but the eJuice Me Up.exe and replace with your contents. All I have are my mixes in the ejuice calc not all the extra bulk ones that come with the program and every update there after.

I just put my recipes in a separate folder and config EJMU to go there.
