Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part Four

[Kenna]

Hear, hear! I find myself reachin' fer unflav'd more and more often. Besides, da coils last a lot looonger.

Sounds as though ya have 'everything' under control...

Nuttin' worse dan an ol' troll...

I loved those things when I was a kid. For some reson they just tickled my funny bone. We weren't allowed to have any because they were called Dammit Dolls where we lived at the time.

A friend of Patty & I gave me one over 25 years ago. She had collection of 'em. I still keep it in my driver's door pocket as a memento/talisman, right next to my PV batt charger!

Never heard da Georgia name fer 'em...

You were supposed to hold them by their hair & slap them against something when you got aggravated. They have cloth stuffed versions now. Then they started calling them troll dolls, & that stuck. But we still weren't allow to have one because of their shady past.
The old ones are worth some $$$.

Tapacrap is messing up those links. They are going to some screwball question! [emoji12]

I checked to make sure it was just tapacrap and it seems to be. Sorry bout dat.

Found I can do unflavored just fine and diluting my favorite store bought juices by half is amazingly good which leads me to wonder if I haven't been flavor "bombing" my poor "buds."

JUP!! Those good juices are good cuz they have tons of flavor. I use a lot less flavor in my DIY than many folks. I think 10% total is the most I have and that's just in my betelgeuse clone that has 4 fruits. Most are 5 or less % total flavoring. Some folks here use even less than that.

Well, that... and Deb's fryin' pan.

someone's gotta keep y'all in line

lol ... yeah she has already came after me with that weapon

Jup that just means yur "in the club" it's an honor really hehehe

I have a theory, Deb. Can't prove and have never been told if I'm correct or not. Here goes. In the early part of my vaping career wa-a-a-ay back in 2013 most all the ejuice came in higher PG ratios.

It is my understanding that pg carries flavor much better than vg. So, when all this sub ohming and big clouds got started the juices started to have more vg than pg.

The theory is that a juice heavy with vg has to be highly flavored to have any taste at all, so cutting it down with pg wouldn't cause a whole lot of difference in taste?

In most cases the diluting has worked for me. It could also just be my "buds" are continually improving over almost 3 yrs. from not being able to taste most anything on the ProTank 2 and it's standard drop-in coils. Took 5 mos. to taste something other than a hot cinnamon.

You could very well be correct. Most of the better juices, you're lucky if you can get even 65pg I vape 70-75pg. I don't buy any juices anymore and am glad of that.

Say you don't have to sign for Fast tech orders do you? and about how long do they take 3 weeks about right?

 

[Debadoo]

Here is the bag insert, in pdf form if folks want to contact their B&Ms and online vendors and ask them to print it off (front and back) either on paper and cut it up, or get their printers to do it as business cards. First page is the front, 2nd page is what goes on the back. It will cost them a bit to do this, but I'll be stressing that it could help in saving their businesses. I'll be asking as many as I can to please put this in customer's bags and pkgs they mail for the online vendors.

Clnire also redid a flyer they can hang up for B&Ms that she based on one Von had done. I asked her for one small revision, so if she does that, she can post both of them to give to the B&Ms also.

I do. Well, for the vast majority they require a sig.

I've never had to sign for FT pkgs. Usually pick a form of USPS shipping. Time varies, depending on how quickly stuff gets picked and packed. Watch the items. Don't commingle things that say ships in X days v. In stock/ships next day

 

[2legsshrt]

Well I need to find out what the PO does with packages that have to be signed for if you put a hold on your mail for a while. If I do decide on a Fast Tech order I want to make sure it is in my hands before the WA state law takes effect which I have heard is expected Oct. 1st.

not sure how they'd do that, but if/when you find out, please let us know. Can you just have it shipped to where you're going?

This is great, Deb!

thanks darlin!

Once home...I think I'm going to take Iffy's suggestion for the nic.

You are only saying that because you have not been around long enough to know that nobody listens to Iffy - especially when it involves nic and what is the best way to distribute it to all your new friends...

All depends on the shipping method you choose if you'll have to sign or not. I only rarely need to sign. My packages usually arrives abt 10 days after they've been shipped, BUT no guarentee of that. I've had one that took 26 days after it shipped to get to me.

Can't you have it sent down there? Or to a neighbor?

Nice job Deb. I printed it out. I'll take the an 'uncut' version and a one cut up to the a B&M on Friday. It would be nice if @clnire has her revision done before Friday. I could drop that off too.
