Thanks Iffy! Question what did you use to make yours??

Check da link (in blue) just above the last set of pics. I made five of 'em. Gave several away as door prizes for a couple o' vape meets; got two left. Think the cost was 'round $5.30 each.

BTW, if ya just 'touch' the bolt tip on a grinder, ya won't even need any type of wrench to poke da carto; fingers will do.

Woohooooo our Debadoo is back!!! So great to see you Deb, I missed you!

thanks Kat! That's sweet :)

Good to see you Deb! Which flavors did you get - who are the troubled "kids"?
On the Menthol I did like Muldemar: 24 mg nic and 5 shots flavor - allows for tweaking / cutting etc. Even cut in half w/ 50/50 pg/vg - I'm just not too wild about the Extreme Ice. Not sure how far I cut that and still taste Wintergreen ... ok at first but like the Spearmint and Cherry - small, occasional doses. now the straight Menthol w/ 5 shots cut 50/50: Wow! That I love! I have a Light Blue Clearo (color coding) of just menthol! The Dark Blue is the BlueBerry!

I thot straight from the mailbox the butterscotch (Yellow Clearo) had great flavor - 24 nic 5 shots as well. Ha! I guess that would become 2.5 extra shots of flavor at 12 mg!

The Caramel Apple freebie @ 12 mg no extra flavor was really good. I also tried it with a couple drops of Sweet Cream (done like the menthols) in12-14 drops Apple was really good. My "boo hoo" moment came yesterday when i realized my pretty green Clearomizer with the Apple had cracked. That I KNOW was only 7 days old - not dropped in my possession - used maybe 2 hours max per day ...


Oh in case your not on the mailing list:
Smokeless Image Sale: COUPON CODE: LABRDY12

Please Note: 22% OFF everything that we have in stock is valid from
Friday, August 31st until end of day September 3rd @ 11:59 PM EST!

Thanks for the code, I've never ordered from smokeless image. I got 30 mls each of strawberry shortcake, moo juice, and the ecto cooler. All 50-50 18mg. The apple was 80/20 12mg. I just filled my vivi with the caramel apple today. It's got some flavor, and isn't bad, but not what I would call great, especially after a week of steeping. The others are just barely starting to get some flavor as well. I only got 1 extra flavor shot, which is what I usually get from most places, but not all. With the caramel apple being 80pg and steeping a week, I'd expect a lot more flavor than this even. Which clearo cracked? The t2, or one like it? Or a ce4 type?

Harley - altcigs is definitely having the 30% off sale - coupon code is LABORDAY

Thanks Harley and Kat!! I'll check them out. Never bought from them either. Right now I'm debating between a second vivi and another pack of ce3's.

What do you use that gives you the full flavor? I have been using the G6 & cartos for a year now. I got a new VV battery yesterday with some clearomizers and the taste isnt as good. My vivi nova came in today and I was hoping the flavor would be better than the clearos and on par with the cartos.

    I had puter problems yesterday afternoon/night and don't remember if I already posted this. I found the rolled cotton at a CVS store here. They were discontinuing the smaller boxes and only had one left. I'll be trying it on my Viva when we get home and settled tomorrow.

    Thanks jod. Nice to meet you too.

    Man I wish my fingers and eyes would let me rewick things. I'd love to try some of these cotton wicks. Not sure what y'all are doing with the gauze or rolled cotton, but I just cannot rewick stuff. I would need 6 more hands and a hubble powered magnifyer!!

    Iffy, JJ, Kat and Harley, thanks for your help with the needle tips. ( I knew I'd get help I needed if I just posted the question here! ) I googled them (should have done that to begin with!) and you're right, there's tons of places to get them. Looks like ecigexpress has the 10 mil and 30 mil bottles with the blue needle tips with caps for $ .89. Turns out some places will sell you the tops, but you have to buy their bottle of juice to get the bottle. I'm not doing DIY, I'm just lazy and want an easier way to fill my vivi novas! :)

    Sorry Janet, I misunderstood and thought you didn't wanna have to buy the bottles with the caps...just caps. My bad! I know you and Mike are looking at going into co-op for Health Cabin order. They have both 10ml and 30ml for .60 cents :)

    LOL Deb. You just roll a piece of the cotton out and put it on top of the regular wick in the Viva. Supposed to improve taste.

    Ohhhhhhhhhh so just sort of use it like a Queen wick. Huh, ok, now I'll have to go back and see exactly what kinda cotton etc. y'all were using. I know I heard someone mention the gauze.

    this may be old news, but I just realized that GV has the large vivis on sale for 10.95 I've been watching the Titan video. Lots of folks are loving this thing, but trying to see if I should try this over my vivi. I tend to prefer vision products to Smok so far.
