Actually the CAP VC is much stronger per ml than the FA Custard is.
Ant the CAP Cinn Danish Swirl is strong too.

So's the cinnamon coffeecake, whooeeee! But I was speaking "in general." Most of the Capella's flavors I have I use at 10% to 20% if I'm using a single flavor, and the Flavour Art ones I start at 2% or 3%! LOL! I usually end up at between 3% and 5% on the FA ones. But every person is different, and some like a lot of flavor and some like very little. For me, it depends on the flavor, but mostly I like them strong. :)

First off, a warm (I'm in FL) welcome to da rustic & rustin', but yet ever entertaining, ol' phart porch phorums! Wedded tag teams are kinda rare 'round dese parts.

BTW, Mike and all too many others here are all too conservative (aka cautious) with ample cushions. Don't let 'em deter ya. I'm more dan willin' to ophpher my services to phully phulphph da cushion of your choice.

Now, wid da phormalities outta da way, would like to hear more 'bout dat "panty dropper" recipe (... where was vaping when I got ambushed by puberty?

)!

Regardless, we're happy y'all joined us and are certain ya both will phit in just phine!!!

Hmm... phluphh my cushion, eh? Yeah, I've been put wise to your cushions already. I'll be careful when I sit down. :lol:

The "panty dropper" is just a name to make young guys buy more juice. :rolleyes: It's good, but my um... knickers... did NOT fall off when I vaped it. I'll get the recipe and post it later. I got it here, from the DIY section, a couple weeks ago. It's supposed to be made with strawberry, but I made a version with peach and it's really good, too! I think it would be good with any fruit flavor. Anyway, I just call it Knickerbocker because panty dropper seems too silly for me, 'specially since I be a gurl. :p

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
Orbtronic too.

I currently build all my coils so I can vape them on regulated or unregulated devices.

Mine fall that way, too, Robert. But, for me, some flavors taste better at different power levels, so I'd need to make coils for each level I want.... :(

Then I would use those flavors on the vairable wattage device.
CAP VC1 tastes different the hotter you burn it.
I tend to like it cooler though. It gets a perfumy note if you run it hot.

Do I have mechs? Of course. Do I use them? Uh... nope. No reason to. I can still get variables.

Why only variables? Psst... you kin adjust them. On the fly. Different juices taste different with different power settings. Coils gunk up and need more power midstream. Going high sometimes clears a gunky coil. Tastebuds may require a different setting during the course of a day for the same tank. Sometimes higher, sometimes lower.

Datz my opin yun n' I'm stuk wid it!

    That's why I have more than 1 mechanical mod dedicated to a specific flavor from a specific atomizer.

    This morning I'm using two mecanicals, The Caravela has an A7 on it with a 1.7 ohm coil for hazelnut, and the Mako has an A7 mini on it with a 1.9 ohm coil for espresso.

    Yep. :)

    If/when the time comes, I have enough KFs to build in enough values. Only 3 mechs in my stash box, but a ton of toppers! :w00t:

    Just have to label them when I build (being a lazy cuss, that's easier than metering them again! :lol: )

    I like stronger flavors also. So far, all of my mixes have been good, but seem to fade after a few days.

    32. And no, I don't wanna trade! :D

    Oh, man, you're WARMER up there? We haven't seen a high of 32 for a while now. S'posed to get all the way up to 35 today (so sayeth the National Weather Service), but it's only 25 so far. I'm not complaining, it's better than zero. :w00t:

    They fade? I wonder why? Just melding and "steeping," you mean, or really FADING? Sometimes, my flavors will "fade" if I've been vaping one for too long, which is why I have usually 4 different tanks with different flavors to flit back and forth on. When one starts tasting blah, I go to another one, then when I go back to the first one, it's tasty again. But I assume that's not what you're talking about. I hate to sound like the proverbial tech guy asking "Is it plugged in?" but... are you keeping them in the dark? (You can smack me with that fryin' pan if you want for asking such a simple question! LOL!)

    Another possibility could be the flavors combining, if you're talking about multi-flavor recipes. As an example, the mixed berry cheesecake one I made the other night was really good as soon as I made it, but the next day the cheesecake had come forward a bit more and blurred the brightness of the berries, so I did end up adding another 2% of the berry flavoring (so it was 10% cheesecake and 7% berry), and after another day, I think it could actually go 10% each. It's so yummy as it is, but it could use a bit more pop in the berry department. So a little more flavor or something to make the berry taste just a tad bit sharper would work, too. Is that more like what you mean?

    Akchooley... We ain't "up there". :) Further south than you. Remember, Buffalo NY is NORTH east of us.

    Nope, cannot ask a dumb question around here. A flavor can fade out as it gets absorbed more and more on your tongue - at least that is the way I look at it - maybe it is gunking up your taste buds while it is gunking up your coils - who knows.

    Food taste can do the same thing - I love Key Lime Pie, but if I ate it everyday for a month - I can assure you - my love for it would dwindle - gotta have variety in there somewhere.

    That is why almost everyone has a shocker eliquid to wake back up the taste buds... For some it is a menthol - others spearmint... For me it is Tutti-Fruity...

    Edit: Oh, I have to add - I have never seen anyone request an attack by a frying pan before - I probably earn the most around here, but you are welcome to any of them that you want... :rolleyes:
