Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part Four

[Iffy]

For our Indiana peeps, saw this on Facebook:

Judge Halts Indiana Vaping Law

Alriiighty!

Ok. Just opened a gallon of pg from essential. I think I got a gallon of fingernail polish.

Had it quite a while.

IIRC, PG should have virtually no odor, correct?

Just for the halibut, I hear PG is slightly sweet. Just tasted the ED nail polish PG. Whoa! Like sugar water.
Is it usually this sweet?

Gary, hopefully ED will replace your PG. Sumpin' ain't right!

Honestly, I've used ED PG & VG from my DIY genesis and never had an issue! I keep both in their orig jugs in my garage wid temp swings from 95+F down to 32F. My current partial jugs have been 'round here fer over nine+ months.

I did a 'sample' taste and it was slightly sweet, but not overwhelmingly so, with no flav. AND there is no odor whatsoever via my 5+ years of no 'bakky olphactory receptors.

Must have a side effect too ... your word usage an spelling has improved.

The PG I had before that was good was pretty watery. But not from essential. We are talking pg here, right? The VG I have is fine. Now that's thick as it should be.

OMG, I thought you were talking about VG. Okay, PG tastes very sweet, went away quickly. Mine is very thin but not like water. I get if from Tractor Supply. Has a slight odor (I also have hay fever right now soooo...) but couldn't tell you what it smells like other than PG. Very mild smell.

Iff, it'z prolly mebbe a year old. Stored in the freezer. But yeah, sumpthins definately rong. After a couple bouts wit mouthwash and vaping baccy flavors the sweetness is finally leavin' my taste budz.

 

[garyoa1]

FT, never tasted it before but because of the smell I did. I always heard it was only slightly sweet. This ain't slight!

 

[garyoa1]

But really sweet doesn't seem to make sense. If yer makin' a baccy flavor and use, say, 50/50, seems you'd have some really sweet baccy flavor.

Iff, it'z prolly mebbe a year old.

Gary, mine is well over a year old. Da nine+ months was when I opened da jug. Still, sumpin' wrong wid your's...

Uv coarse there iz. Cuz I'm out of it! :::sobbing uncontrollably now:::

 

[FlamingoTutu]

I vaped plain for a while and it is sweet, mildly sweet. Not bad at all. There's something seriously wrong with your stuff. Had my last bottle over a year and never put it in the fridge. Poor stuff baked through part of the summer before I remembered to move it. Never had an odor I detected, until I stuck my nose in it the jar just now.

Have a good cry and then get it replaced.

Naw, it definitely ain't that sweet...

 

[garyoa1]

I'd say it's at least 10 times sweeter than sugar.

 

[FlamingoTutu]

I'd say it's at least 10 times sweeter than sugar.

Maybe you can sell it to some kids.

Please NO...

Hello again Porchers!

I hate to just post a couple questions here, and then most likely not be here as often as I'd like for awhile. But I'm trying to finish up last-minute buying of vape bits & pieces for me and some people I've switched over to vaping. Gotta get them while I still can, no matter what!

Some major things (elderly family member related issues) have come to light that I'll have to be dealing with here on the homefront for most likely a long time. Most of my attention and time will have to be focused on them, or I stand to lose a lot of money and even my property & home! Can't deal with these until at least Tuesday, so figured I might as well deal with vape stuff until then.

So, my questions are about replacement O-rings for a variety of tanks:
Same ones fit these - Protank Mini 2 & 3 tanks and the Areotank Minis

Same ones fit these - Protank 3 and Aerotank

I've found the authentic Kanger sets of 3 rings that fit the Subtank Minis on FT (for a super price), so those are no problem. Have also found ones for the above groups of tanks here in the US, but at a much higher price than on FT. Problem is...FT only shows them by sizes (ID, OD, and depth) and not by the particular tanks they fit. I don't know which ones to buy for the groups of tanks above.

Has anyone bought them on FT and can clue me in on the right sizes to order for them? I'd really appreciate any help with it.

This is all I know about that: TheKiwi's Blog

The best of luck with your current issues!

My only problem with Gearbest is their shipping takes so long (well, free shipping). My 3rd Pico (all black) shipped on June 15 and still not here. I pay the $1.99 for tracking, which is basically useless because I still can't track it!! Once it left Norway it is in a black hole. Not the first time this has happened. Last order came via VietNam mail and same thing. But it did show up one day about 4 weeks after shipping. But I have always received everything I have ordered from them just a longer wait. Fasttech seems speedy compared to Gearbest. Actually, FT shipping has greatly improved through the years. Order shipped June 24 is out for delivery today.

Gearbest was very, very slow shipping my product. And, when I called them, they LIED to me. End of story.

just checked, they're 9.00 there. yowzers. Was gonna get the 30Q's from illumn.com, but the only way to check out is paypal and sending them a check. Don't have money in my paypal acct, I xfred it to my bank. I do have my bank linked, but will pp charge you if you use it and they take it from your bank? Still not real up on how they work. I don't have the pp debit card yet.

I don't have a PayPal credit card. It's connected to my bank account. And, I use it a lot.

Ok. Just opened a gallon of pg from essential. I think I got a gallon of fingernail polish.

Had it quite a while.

You're making me nervous about keeping PG/VG for so long.

lmao!! Hope not. Gonna house sit for a friend.

Is there a McDonalds or something you can walk to? Most restaurants have WiFi nowadays.

I'm not Ken, but I'm keen on our new porchers. A warm welcome to da bestest porch in da cyber world! Hang 'round and enjoy yourself.

OBTW, sorry, can't help with ya da 'Queen'...

 

[Kenna]

Hi ken, im new on here and forums.. i came across strawberry queen "the queen"ejuice, and love it. I see that u like one of there juices and are remaking it. Or thats what it seems like from the few posts ive read.. but would you happen to know of a close comparable juice to the queen from strawberry queen? "The Queen" is just fresh strawberries. Looking to make my own juice (never have done this before), or buy a spot on remake. Its expensive to adv. If you can assist me in any way, itd be greatly appreciated.

Hin Korie! Welcome to The Porches!

 

[2legsshrt]

Thank you (a heap)! It's back on my list.

Hi Matti!

Thanks but I think I can only handle one China company at a time. Gonna go with the 4th FT discount on a couple of things.

So you are looking for the gaskets? Maybe they do now but in the past no one has sold them. Most popular remidy was to take a flat silicon "sheet," like from a drip tip cover, and cut a new one. Davides come with extra gaskets and if anybody knows that they would fit, never bought a PT, I'll be happy to send you a couple. Heck I'll be happy to send them so you can see if they fit.

Hope all is resolved quickly and positively concerning your current problems.

You shouldn't have let her off that easily.

Mine's pretty thick and it's pretty warm in the house. Tell them to send you a new bottle. Sucks. What a PITA.

If you want a little mod you should watch PB's reviews of the minis. When I stopped he was saying the one from Vapoesso was a good one but check out his reviews he does about 7 of them. I've heard that little Pico is a good one also. These are mostly internal battery tiny little guys. Aren't even as tall as an 18650.

 

[clnire]

Just a quick check in.

Welcome @Korie !

 

[2legsshrt]

Damn I can't believe it people are shooting fireworks off. They are legal in this county on the 4th only but they are shooting off some big ones tonight and we are under a red flag fire danger warning.

First:

Second... I'll be... Never noticed that before, but mine is "The King".
For just strawberry, try the Capella sweet Strawberry... If it's not quite right, they may have put some Mellon in "The Queen", so try adding some of that too.

Was also thinking of a Pico to try out in the future when life gets boring with no vape mail. Anyone know if it's any good for a tootler?

Yes, I have one, with the tank. I am using the coil that was installed in the tank (good to 30 watts) on 12 watts, very nice and battery is great!
