I use Mike's system... Ohms + 2-.2..Its a great starting point..Often dead on
Good Morning

You will find that you need to toss all those charts and formulas out the window. Just changing flavors with a CE4 type atomizer can make you change the voltage by as much as a 1/2 a volt or more.
Exact same setup and I'm running an apple flavor at 3.3v and a cappuccino at 4.2v.

Uh oh, I'm a little bid sad. Received the order I placed for $25 for those T2 heads at such a great price - I'm happy with that part. But I also ordered the Purple Kanger T2, and they gave me a red one without telling me or asking me if that would be ok. I already have a red one, but oh well, now I have 2 reds. Purple is my fave though

I ordered a purple one too.

 

[Gloria]

I ordered a purple T2 also. From the photo it looks more like pink though. I should be getting them tomorrow, so I'll let you know what color it is.

 

[jj2]

Keeping my fingers crossed for you and me Gloria!!

I want my purple!

 

[Kat56]

I first thought that the one I got actually was purple, even though it looked pink. I compared it to the red one I already had, which actually looks pink instead of red. They looked the same, but I thought maybe my eyes were fooling me. Then I looked at the paperwork that came with my shipment. Purple is crossed out by hand, and RED had to sub red for purple is hand written on the paperwork. That was how I knew my eyes were working right

 

[jj2]

It would have been nice if they asked you if that was okay?

Bet I get some other color too.

 

[Kat56]

Yep I felt it would have been better if they had asked me or at least let me know instead of just doing it. I guess it doesn't work that way though. I really wanted purple though LOL, already had a red one.

 

[jj2]

Well I don't have any yet so I guess I'll just be happy.

Good afternoon everybody!

Looking for some input on a decision I have to make.

My mini LT needs new batts. I bought it in a co-op for $55 and it's the original. Works great and still in good condition, but the original batts are getting weak.

I would be looking at spending about $16 plus shipping on 2 new AW 16350 batts and would probably upgrade to a better charger too, which would add another $20 at least, depending on which charger I decide on.

So I'm thinking maybe I'd rather put that $40 towards new gear with a 18650 batt. Maybe a new LT or a Gripper. But I'm open to other suggestions too. It would be nice to have VV with the ability to read the ohms on the cartos. I'm no longer concerned about size or shape of PV.

Fire away with your thoughts/suggestions please!

In my mind it 'brightens' fruit flavs a tad. Some folk say that it will also reduce those horrid 'perfumy' tones in some flavs.

I just add the drops straight from da container. And no, you do not taste lemon at that ratio.

Sounds like an nice addition to the "tweaking" stash! I think I'll be keeping a supply of Flavor Arts "Flash" (for tweaking the TH); Cappella's Double Dutch Choc and perhaps some Blueberry from somewhere! I think those would allow for adjusting most any flavor I mess with in terms of adding a little pg or vg to bring down the the nic level or to thin or thicken any given flavor I'm apt to keep around. It's filed in the "Good to Know" file! Thank You!@!!!

TBH, I've only used that capability once, just to test my new VMax. Keep in mind that you set the VV PV voltage to taste, not carto resistance/ohmage.

Other than the extended batt charge life on an 18650, I really can't encourage a PV change.

BTW, I have one of the co-op Apollo SS mini-LTs and really enjoy it.

 

[kico166]

Ronaldo - do you think the reason you get TH with zero nic is because you haven't had it for quite awhile? Just curious as I notice when I drop below 12 mg. I've only been vaping a few months.

Curious what y'all putting down for your "project" info at P&G ...
Wonder how much weight is put on that reason in determining if you qualify for the free stuff.

100% VG - how much distilled water do you thin it with? (Thinking I saw that it's a good idea)

The heat broke here in southern Minn. Probably should have mowed instead doing another project. Should have remembered the rain ALWAYS comes with the local fair! LOL - it's gonna be catcha time when it clears!

Ya might also want to try apple cider vinegar (ACV) to aid in your 'heavier' flavs (bakery/'bakky/savory). Lotsa info HERE. Also do a search for 'vinegar'...

I use ACV (1 drop/3ml) in my vanilla mix.

Muldemar, muldemar ... I have been meaning to tell you I love your siggy about returning as a mouse. But I must say THANK YOU for the GIGGLES this morning! Have a super day!

Ooooh! Thanks! I have a 'nilla sampler carto. Not much to write home about. Perhaps I'll just put a drip in on top! I do that w/ the tobacco ones and menthol. Most of the time one drop is sufficient till I've vaped a little bit - then top off with more menthol. 50% of the time I might have 1 drop come out the bottom when I first do this. I'm hoping it's the tobacco the carto originally with! I let them sit overnight and the next day there is just enough menthol to be tolerable to start! Former Kool / Menthol 100's user.

This tweaking is the reason I love the Clearo's - can be adjusted as needed each day! Sifting thru all the tech / comparison - is it the same product from vendor to vendor makes wanting to stick with just SI all the more appealing! (Slinks away muttering: "Now if they'd just get more CE3's in stock so I could try a few of these flavors that keep calling out to me when I by my stash ... ")

Ummm, don't know how that would work out with a carto. Please keep us posted!

That's one aspect of da clearos that doesn't get much appreciation in discussions!

Hi older Folks! what's new here?

 

[kico166]

Hello Eagle T! Welcome to you and all Noobies ... I'm too new to know!

Umm I think this where there had been discussion about getting red instead of PURPLE batts ...

Not to tease but: http://www.nettmixcustomvapes.com/product_images/k/937/900_purple_pass__54305_thumb.png

I think they have mostly 510 threaded products - Ego's ... just thot I'd mention it! Oh - good juice - samples as low as $2 for a 3ml bottle ...

 

[Cyrene]

I have something new! No smoking analogs anymore! Woot! Ok ok, it's only been a few
days, but the eGo did it!

And...and..and I had a new atomizer, kept getting the burnt taste even after priming, so I
thought, what the heck, and debridged it. Wow, gone was the burnt taste and it is awesome!
I like Blueberry mixed with my menthol, since Madvapes was kind enough to send me a trial with
my cartridge order.

Not bad for a newbie, huh?

 

[Kat56]

Congrats Cyrene! That's awesome!
