omg dont do this!!

[EvilGenius]

do NOT I repeat do NOT put halo juices in a rba, I got my awesome diablo mod and mutation x v2 rba today, I decided to try my favorite juice which is halo's tribecca in it.... omg ewwwww!! I had to clean the coils and use new cotton then put in my space jam juice back in.. 3mg nic

burnt taste, burns throat a little, and smells awful, it doesn't even taste or smell like I'm using their juice.. 6mg nic by the way HARSH!

back to the tritons they go!

anyone else try halo juices in a mech mod and have a good experience?

I use TikiJuice in my dripper - its built around 1.6 @ 11w. Veritas clone, single coil with cherry vapes drip tip. I fell in love with it on a smaller rda like a cyclone. It really lights up with a white russian 6mg is harsh on a dripper.

I have put everything from 3mg to 12mg in my dripper and the free juices I got from Apollo are the only gross ones! I think they are too thin (pg/vg) for a dripper.

I'm fine with 12 mg on a 1.3 ish dual. But I'm not ok with half PG. I am comfortable with at least %80 vg and up.
I had this epiphany with a kayfun. Things I liked in protanks were way too strong in a kayfun. It was interesting lol.

Some juice breaks down too... Mbv is no good at lower ohms 1.6 @ 4v or so and its ok

I haven't used tribeca in anything higher than a microcoil @ 11w, and while it's not the thickest eliquid I've used a few of theirs in RDAs (I really like voodoo) at much higher wattages and not experienced anything like this. Legitmately confused as to what's going on. You didn't give specifics on coil/wick setup, but I'm almost wondering if you aren't burning your cotton or something.

 

[alicewonderland]

yeah its not RDA's that make stuff taste bad, it mostly is your coil/resistance setup in it is not ideal for the juice. You can build the coil to draw any amount of current, your setup just probably isnt ideal for the juice, another build would work on the same RDA though as its not really the RDA at fault.

im using .7 and 26 gauge kanthal, that vapes fine with convicted vapor juices and space jam juices, but when I tried halo tribecca... bleh

I tried Tribecca once, so now I don't buy stuff from Halo.

 

[Sir Pouncival]

I always keep a bottle of PG and a bottle of VG on hand for juices that don't work well. I find that adding a few drops of PG when it's too think or VG if it's too thin fixes the burning issue with RBAs. If that doesn't work then make sure you have adequate juice flow. Not enough juice will burn the cotton quickly.

Tribeca and Belgium cocoa were were two favorite liquids for a while, now I can't even smell them without dry heaving.

As I got better and better equipment it brought out nuances and underlying flavors in the e-liquid I simply didn't like.

It could simply be that Halo use about a 70/30 or 65/35 PG/VG mix and that is where the harshness is coming from or it could be that you just don't like it in a dripper.

I'm not knocking Halo by the way, I had good experiences and would still recommend their e-liquids to others, they just aren't for me anymore.

OP Sounds like your setup. I drip Halo, 24 mg, in an HH 357 without issues...

If I could only use one word to describe Tribeca, it would be: Corn. I've decided I don't care for vaping corn based flavors.

I have zero issues dripping Tribeca what so ever. Its one of my top caramel liquids. The warmer the better it is.

I've had the same experience. Halo went from being my favorite vendor to something I hardly use anymore. It's a shame too considering how much I have just sitting there.

I like Halo e-liquids. I find Trebeca to be quite mild until I crank up the voltage. I don't have a dripper (yet , so I'm vaping using the Aspire mini. I didn't know that Halo uses a 70/30 or 65/35 mix ratio, I thought that it might have been closer to 50/50. Also, I wondering what makes their juices so smooth and comfortable? I've tried e-liquid from a number of different vendors and for the most part find them very "dry." Could Halo be adding a sweetener to their juices to mellow out the flavour?

[JayWer]

^ Exactly. You have to find that sweet spot with Tribeca. Another Goldie Locks like scenario. Too cold = too sweet, too hot = it taste like a pack of butts that got wet and sat out to dry. Find that spot in between and its awesome.

 

[EvilGenius]

I love halo tribecca but I do notice it dries out my mouth really fast, I know they have posted here to confirm the pg level is higher than the vg, so yeah 70/30 is probably right, I never have to drink a lot of water when I use my mech mod since those juices are vg based

 

[LeftHandBlack]

I use 50/50 juice alot. The lower ohm and dual coil setups mute the taste Ive noticed. Too much heat I assume. I run single parallel coils in the .4 range and they taste good to me. Im not looking to win a cloud contest just like the flavor and dense vapor output.
