i also can't find find any liquid i like besides that Menthol i've been vaping for like 5 years(same company-french one),so what flavors are you doing yourself?

The koolada gives me that cool feeling I expect from menthol and the cool blast in the back of my throat replaces the TH from cigs which is important to me. The menthol taste is pretty mild but a few more drops would intensify it.

I'm definately not knocking them KAS, I think they are one of the best looking mods ever produced, they look superbly crafted too. Just ...if they had like a real store where there was always stock available, I probably would have grabbed one while looking and pondering. Having stuff sold in "runs" is just not the kind of thing I go in for.


This from a REO man ???

:lol: :lol::lol:



I wonder if this will work...

They are made in a shop about the size that REO's were/are made in, he could never keep up with demand. Only sold at his own site, unless you buy a used one. When I first joined ECF, and was still learning and just barely off of tobacco, I first found the Billet box thread. I think my first reaction was WOW! that is cool. I did not know what a F5 war was back then and I just gave up trying, until I tried again about a year later and got my first one. The new REV 4's until just recently have also been F5 battles, I bought a blem about 2 months ago, and it was easy.

The only thing about the BB that I don't like is, I have never found a rebuildable atty that I like for them. They are either too expensive, too fiddly, or take up too much room in the tank. There are more out now that I would like to try, but just limited on funds. I know that they are not for everyone, but if you want another fine american made devise, this is one. :)

But with those small BVCs and a $34 Billet Bride (Atmistique), they're quite a nice little vape. The boards on the Rev 1-3s are basically flat-lines too. One of the smoothest regulated vapes ever.

The Rev 4s are nice, basically for the 18650 batteries and swap-able panels, but the early ones are tough to beat if one doesn't mind carrying an extra set of tiny batteries. Larger tank, smoother vape, and the stock tanks are delrin, not glass, so they won't/cannot break.

I'm obviously biased/partial to the early babies. Works of art...

I just got another 50 of the little BVC's in yesterday, I am going to try doing that every month till the end of the year, I use Discountvapers. I have 3 Rev 3's and one Rev 4 sitting in front of me, next to 3 REO's, a TI Provari 2.5, and 2 Radius's. A Vaper's Heaven. :)

I too get my BVCs from EG & LD. Anything I can get from them, I do.

I think you're good, KAS, and are you counting those Flippers in there? :D

I had the flipper out yesterday when I was counting my boro tanks, it is now safely wrapped in food service film and bubble wrap. It doesn't get out much, it was just too expensive to ever risk damaging it, it is still very shiny. :)

I cant do pictures right now, because of Photo bucket's new extortion rules, or I would post a picture of it. :(

:lol: yeah, you got me there ;)
Funny thought though, the 2015 Woodie I grabbed on opening night, that one I wound up trading off down the road, and the two that I now have, one came " off the shelf", and the other through the classies.

Do you like straight menthol (not spearmint or peppermint)? I don't like either of the latter I like straight menthol. Here is my DIY solution: to 100mls of combined PG, VG and nic I add 2 mls of menthol liquid and 7 mls koolada.

The koolada gives me that cool feeling I expect from menthol and the cool blast in the back of my throat replaces the TH from cigs which is important to me. The menthol taste is pretty mild but a few more drops would intensify it.

Edit: Forgot to say that's all I vape.

i don't know if my e-liquid is considered spearmint or peppermint but it's called "Fresh Mint":
i don't mind paying for it if i like it, and not in a hurry to DIY ,and i also don't know if i could reproduce this exact same taste.
the koolada makes me cough hard,and the juice i vape is a strong 80pg liquid so i get a good throat hit.
i'd really like to find more flavors i like, especially with all the gear i got, it seems a bit stupid? to have it just for one flavor.
when i got my first kit a long time ago i was offered 3 flavors with it;vanilla tobacco and the mint,and i only liked the mint and that's how i managed to stop smoking.
since then i've benn trying many flavors/brands but with no success,so i'll give a last chance to the tobaccos from blacknote,and if that doesn't do it for me either, i'll just accept my "fate" and maybe from time to time add another flavor to my order to taste.(or diy)
