Yeah looking at a picture, it looks like they dont have those big gaping holes the subtank mini has.


That e-cigg would be plenty for her, she never turns that istick 30 up over 8w. She likes being able to vape for 4 days without recharging though.



They all have there little finicky things don't they, Im hoping she goes for the nautilus, but she will probably go for the "cute one", lol.

I really appreciate everyone’s input, you have all been so helpful! As soon as she gets back from town I will show these to her. Thank You!
Show her the Hollowed Out Tank replacement for the Nautilus & Nautilus Mini's. She'll drool over the cute! This is the big one on an istick 20.

Man you guys have been gabby today. :w00t:
Aw yes, kindergarten... my tuphphest phirst phour years in skool...
Yeah, it all went downhill after kindergarten. :(
I used clear nail polish on mine. I only have 2 1ml right now so I took that precaution.
I use the nail polish also. Bought a bunch of syringes to start with but most of the originals are still going strong around two years later. Didn't realize I was buying a lifetime supply when I ordered them.
I just so happened to be varathaning some maple bull nosing. I put a couple coats of the varathane onto a couple of my 1ml syringes since the numbers wear off so fast, its now 6 months passed, that 1ml syringe gets used all the time and the lettering is still clear and sharp and the 2nd one is still in my drawer waiting for the first one to wear out in which it hasn't as of yet.
I pop the plunger out and fill from the top also, its much easier than trying to draw base up the syringe, also having a few 60ml syringes make larger portions easier without having to double dip into my bases. I wasn't sure about nail polish since you can flake it off your nails so IMO there would be a good chance of you vaping nail polish flakes without knowing it. Clear tape I think would be a complete waste of time cause the tape would come off easily along with the numbers also.
Actually tried to flake off the nail polish to test that theory and couldn't do it. YNPMV
yeah @Robert Cromwell uses the stuff on his nails too :w00t:
Enquiring minds want to know how you know this.
If already answered, I'm trying to get caught up. :)
You and me both.
BTW, I never cared fer Lucille Ball at all and still don't...
Grouch.
You can get cotton candy from TFA which I believe is a sweetner pre mixed. You can get a 4oz bottle pretty cheap.
I'd forgotten about that. A lot of people do use it as a sweeter. Good catch!

I use liquid Stevia from GNC as my sweetener.

I am diabetic and have tried Stevia in just about every form. The only way it tastes sweet to me is if I eat a leaf off my plant. I have no idea why. I have never tried inhaling it before LOL I have some so maybe I'll give it a try and see if it tastes sweet to me that way. Thank you for your suggestion. :)

The liquid Stevia from GNC is sweet. Some of the others not so much.
the Rebaudiana variety is the sweetest variety of the Stevia plant family.

No, I am just looking for the sucralose to sweeten already made unsweetned juice. :)
Try ecigexpress. You can get 20 grams of powder (to dissolve in PG/VG) for $5.99
or liquid concentrate @ 10 ml for $3.32. I recommend you start with the liquid.
BTW, don't go thinking the sucralose in the little envelopes at the coffee shop is
the same as the stuff at the vape store. Coffee shop (ETC) has fillers that you don't want to vape.

laters,
Hazy

I saw those, pretty kewl!
Actually like the styling of the nautilus much better than my subtank mini!

Unfortunately it appears the concept of the bi-weekly paycheck and resulting rush on the stores this time of month hasn’t occurred to a lot of vape shops.
I needed 3 things, the nautilus, the istick 100w, and a pair of batteries. So I probably ended up paying an extra 20.00 just so they would all arrive in the same box, rather than order whatever from whomever.

Then grabbed another 24 flavors to play with my nic juice! :danger:

That cool tank replacement was sold out, but Im gonna grab one for her next chance I get! Thanks for helping me out today everyone!

I just told her to give "semiretired" a good deal when he stops in, so let her know your screen name and lets see what happens. ;)
awwwwww that was sweet!

I would like to know if there is a good natural sweetener that does not have an aftertaste that I could buy so I can sweeten a juice. Then I can just mix the ones I like to my taste.
I use the sucralose from ecigexpress, when I use sweetner which isn't all that often. Mostly if a recipe calls for it, I'll try it then see if I still need it.

She dont care for the loose draw on my subtank mini, and I have heard so many people brag about the nautilus mini tank I was thinking about getting her one. Not sure if that nautilus mini will have a tighter draw or not?
I was also going to suggest the GS air. I haven't used one, but would have had I not gone to the Reo. They have a huge following. Gracie uses them. She'll not be on most of the week, but she can sure tell ya bout em later on. She loves them. Her sn is Flowersoul
I have thought about becoming a HAM operator.
we've been talking about that too and my nephew just got a book to teach a lot about it

Actually GlacierBabe suggested the GS air M, I thought for sure that would be the one. I opened a page for each device that was suggested along with the regular Nautilus (non mini) and she chose the Nautilus.

yeah as I was reading I saw she did, so I didn't. I did like the nautilus, but definitely liked the lattice tank that was shown, and it was annoying to me that I couldn't just buy it with that tank. Had to buy a nautilus, then buy the other tank, then the glass tank that came with the nautilus was only good as a back up. So figgered next one I'd try would be the GS Air, but I ended up with Reos and haven't even looked at anything since.

they're available here and it's a good vendor.....
Aspire Nautilus Mini Hollow Assy - Aspire Nautilus - Aspire - Clearomizers Tanks

Aspire Nautilus Large Hollowed Assy

wasn't sure if you got her the mini or the regular, so I gave you a link to both :)
Yeah we got the regular, and I was about to ask if there is three sizes or if the vendor maybe added the word "large" to make darned sure someone doesn’t grab the one for the mini,lol. Sold! Thank you, she is going to love this!

I assume you've been around here long enough to know there are several threads about diabetics and sweeteners on ECF. I know next to nothing about diabetes but thought I'd mention it if you weren't aware. Shouldn't be hard to search for them.
Oh, ya came close, but no cigar...

Now there's a familiar face we all know and love. How many times do we have to tell you, no smoking on the porch!

Hazy, you been on the porch before? Can't remember. I usually just see you running down the halls with Robin, gun drawn, in hot pursuit. ;)

Me neither! But, I loved Red Skelton and Carol Burnett. And, my grandmother always watched Lawrence Welk and Hee Haw.

I didn't really start to like tv until Saturday afternoon started to include Charlie Chan, Sherlock Holmes, and old horror movies. Then came Dark Shadows and Star Trek. And, around the time I left home, SNL.
Gotta go for a 24 hour halter monitor today.
Hope all goes well. Let us know, please.
We have stopped in South Carolina for the night.
Good idea. Drive careful and easy. And, try to enjoy the best you can.
