I will have to try a lower percentage on another batch.May I suggest you' might be using too high of a percentage. 'Perfume' is a classic indication of too much flavoring (yepper, been dere, done dat in my DIY genesis).
As fer EA, some folk swear they're sensitive to it and have to 'air' (open bottle) it. As fer moi, mix and vape!
Did ya work your way up da flavor scale when testing? Just a thought...
I am a heavy user of TFA black tea, which I blend with my floral flavors. The tea flavor is heavily dosed with alcohol. This mimics the tannin flavor of tea. Definitely decrease your percentages if you don't like it. I suspect the solution is better with the alcohol. Alcohol in a flavor also adds a bit of a throat hit. After some experimentation, like in nuking it and reducing it by 1/3, I decided to live with it. YMMV.
Lannie has gone to bed, but I am back for a couple hours before the pillow yells my name ("Come to bed ya stoopid oldt phart!"). Anyhoo...
And, believe it or not, we do understand that the iStick30, iStickTC40, X6s, EVODs, Disrupters, and the other shinies we have that use proprietary batteries might go away and not be replaceable after the Communist Federal Statists get done with us, but they have a finite life anyway. For example, the iStick30 is likely to last for only 300 recharges (about a year from date of first use if you vape over 10W), and given that the battery is inseparable from the electronics, when the day comes that it will no longer hold a charge, the whole thing goes in the garbage pit (after I have extracted select parts). I have a preference for regulated mods, but they can be obtained with replaceable batteries (such as 18650). So we are (as we can afford it or win it) acquiring mods like the iJoy, Koopor Plus, SXmini (why do they call it "mini" when it is large and weighs a ton? I call mine "Thor's Hammer" because you could use it to knock out a Grizzly.), etc. We have also bought some K-boxes to keep on the shelf for emergency purposes. And we are looking at (studying) unregulated (mech) mods for additional backups, simply because they are not stuffed full of proprietary surface-mount electronics (extremely hard or impossible for the "average" home technician to repair) and just about anyone can build one out of parts scavenged from other broken mods. Does all that make sense?
Istick 30s, 40s, 50s and whatever s can also have there batteries replaced, check u tube, its not worth the trouble now but one day maybe 
Thank you Iffi, 3mg and David for your input and recommendations. I will try a lower percentage in a smaller batch until I can get it where I like it. I went through some of my other flavors and discovered that the Juicy Peach also has EA in it. I haven't opened it yet so when I do, again, I will start slow and work up.
I currently build all my coils so I can vape them on regulated or unregulated devices.Yep, perfect sense. And those with built-ins MAY be able to be converted to replaceable by some, even if it means a new "case" for the elex.
Many of us have a couple or more mechs in the box. I have 3, and 3 Kick modules that fit 'em, so I can stay "regulated" until the Kicks die before having to get real precise with my coils
But I suspect the high CDR lithiums will still be around.
Legs, I found LG HG2's at VapeNW for 7.99.
Yeah they are 6.99 at both RTD and illumn and include plastic cases with each pair. I'll just wait for RTD I really trust them. I can get the charger at illumn also I sent them an email to see if they would give me the 20% off that was up on Xtar chargers till Dec 25th if they will do that I will go with them they are the same price for both batteries and charger and also give you the case with each pair.But Thanks plus 9% sales tax
It was when I was the commercial juices when I first started vaping. Used 24 to get over the hump. started dropping after a month but it would begin to feel like I was inhaling pepper spray, or at least what I imagine it to be. Pretty sure I haven't had that problem since I started DIY.
Oh give me a break. You're pretty spry on the porch. Never have a problem jumping all over me here.Dat's considerate since ya know I can't jump no mo'...
See Iffy, outnumbered.
Welcome to the porch, Lannie! (I think I got everyone else, if not, I'm sorry.) Looks like the others have everything covered except on minor detail below.There he goes... makin' fun of my Womper cloudz again... (Who took the frying pan? I need it!) That's OK, slowly but slowly, I'm dragging him, kicking and screaming, over to the Dark Side. His clouds are about as big as mine now.
You guys got another rocker I can use? This looks like a comfy place for us oldt pharts. And apparently most of you have a sense of HUMOR, which seems to be sadly lacking elsewhere! LOL! I LIKE DIS PORCH!
~Lannie
I looked.If you don't want to spend money, don't look here
AND $3 Kayfuns, Kayfun: Vapor Bank - Evansville, Indiana E-Cigarette Store
$160 worth of stuff for about $15. 
The plan is to give it to a young father that needs to quit smoking, just have to wait until he wants to.Um-hum.
Glad it turned out well for you. Don't remember the ad, will keep an eye out for it.Ok, I messed up. I know it comes as a shock to us all, but it's true.
When I ordered my DIY Kit from RTS, I also got (what I thought was additional flavors, never learned to read) a Carolina Premium E-Juice sampler. So, my bad but it has turned out good. Of the three I've tried all have been very good. But, the really good part of this is that the samples are all 3mg nic and this is my 3rd day vaping the samples (normally do 6mg nic) with no side effects. So my having messed up has been a Plus.
OBTW saw one of the banner ads earlier that offered a free sampler but now I can't find it. The code was included in the banner.
You described me perfectly. Okay, I kinda like shiny but just being off the smokes with something simple makes my day every day. Bit surprised I'm not the the tinkering/experimental type with vaping but have come to terms with it.You are definitely not Noobs - your progress is substantial - far surpasses mine - I am more the simplistic type - if it keeps me off of the smokes - then I am a happy camper... Don't have to be shiny, don't have to provide huge clouds of vapor, don't have to provide nuttin, but what it takes me from going back and going back ain't gonna happen...
Woohoo, TFA blackberry, my 24/7/365 vape! Had forgotten it had Ethyl Alcohol. The most I steep it is overnight or maybe even 24 hours.
Lannie, don't believe a phlipping word he says about cushions. Iffy's infamous for his whoopee and pin cushions. Just thank him and put it back in his rocker when he's not looking.
Lannie has gone to bed, but I am back for a couple hours before the pillow yells my name ("Come to bed ya stoopid oldt phart!"). Anyhoo...
Yes, I fully believe the 18650s will be around forever, but will the higher Amp types be available? The standard 18650s that are used in LED flashlights don't have the power (or the safety) to be used in a mod -- unless you don't mind a burned face now and then.
But will the 18490s be available?I think they will, there used in power drills saws and such. May have to take a battery pk. apart (been there done that)
