I'll have to look for those. In every video of his that I've watched, he uses Cotn threads.
Congrats, @FranC!
congrats on 9 years smoke free @FranC - that's just amazing 
do you drive? I just started driving for lyft and uber yesterday to make some extra cash and I'm not sure but I think unless you make like $20K/year with them you don't have to file tax returns, so ss would never know
No, I don't but I hope it works well for you.do you drive? I just started driving for lyft and uber yesterday to make some extra cash and I'm not sure but I think unless you make like $20K/year with them you don't have to file tax returns, so ss would never know
I know a lot of folks like the various versions of the Kayfuns. I never jumped on the bandwagon but I did try once or twice. I've forgotten which ones I bought but I had 2 different ones. I could never make myself like them so I piffed them to a friend. She loved themkayfun was mine. I'd been rebuilding PT type heads for a long time when the light finally came on that there were bigger fish in the sea

Yep, their basic (least expensive) 100mg/mL nic (currently $45/liter). Link (red highlight) in my previous post.
That was 99.9% my fault. I linked the product to my own slang. I apologize for my needless confusion.
Concerns?... ah, no. Experience?... only once.
That was (at the time) a $140 DNA 40(?) Vapor Shark.
It was my first "splurge" vape purchase, and I was using a couple of different tank atty's on it, for about 9 months. To my own culpability, they were all proven leakers, and I have no one to blame but myself.
But... the screen died, and I could not resurrect it.
My judgement comes, from the fact, that I used those very same tanks... had completely "bricked" two other mods (not just a dead screen; but the would not fire) , on an e-Leaf and Segelli... yet resurrected the latter two with a simple PGA soak (followed with a thorough dry).
Since that time; DNA boards, and $100+ mods, can all kiss my rear end! <insert middle finger to every uppity mfg. gif here>
A bit off topic (maybe, kinda, sorta, not really?); use only hardware you are very comfortable/familiar with, for flavor testing. Otherwise, you are not going to be certain whether the perceived flavor is the result of the hardware, or the concentrate.
By my reading of your posting; I wouldn't know if the result/flavor outcome was due to the wicking, atty, or concentrate. Ideally, one will do testing on equipment, as close to what one's daily set-up is. Barring that, one would (ideally?) use hardware that can emulate that as much as possible.
Using new/unfamiliar hardware, can only be uninformative (for that, and any other hardware).
(based only on my own personal experience
)No small accomplishment! I hope you are proud of yourself!!

I have never paid over $100 for a mod although my very first,a Buzz, did come close. I ended up with 2 of them (one for hubs). They have both met they're demise and didn't last as long as the cheap 30W iSticks I'm still using .
I did pay over $100 for an Xhaler many years ago. Not again. I picked up one dna mod on clearance for around forty. It’s the only one I have.
I always forget about it but I do have a DNA 75 mod. Couple years ago a forum friend was cleaning out his "over-run" of vape supplies and he sent me the used mod along with 2 brand new Baby Beast Smok tanks. The mod is dang hefty so not exactly my go-to. I haven't yet tried the Smok tanks.
I'm currently working on emptying 3 30ml mixes. One is down to about 1/4 full, one a little under half and the last is a bit over half. I'm getting there but it's been slow. All my new mixes have been 15ml. I like that better.
The Grapefruit Gin and Tonic seems to be my first successful "summer" recipe. I've been vaping it since yesterday and it has an acceptable sweetness to me. The 2 mixed with the Cranberry SC went down the drain as they got way too sweet for me. I'll be digging out my tried and true Rhubarbs if I do another "summer" recipe....LOL. Still have the Marmalade Gin and Tonic to try in a few more days.

The one I have is a fairly large dna75 also. It' will hold a 26650 I think. I just used it with the adapter and an 18650 but ended up putting it in storage.
I mixed a few 50ml batches early on and still haven't finished them. I now mix everything in 10 or 15ml bottles except for my menthol tobacco and those are in 30's. I still haven't gotten around to trying the SC cranberry I ordered from VZ. I don't mind some sweet so maybe I'll like it.'
I have been trying some of the divine fantastic lemonade one shot I got from chefs. I like some sweet vapes but this one is too sweet for me since it's a lemonade. To me, lemonade should be tart and have a bite to it with a little bit of sweetness. The sweetness on this one is too much in my opinion. I haven't tried the cryptic vanilla yet. I figured it might need a little bit of a steep.
I hope you have better luck with the Cryptic Vanilla. I haven't mixed the Rhubarb and Custard one-shot yet.
I think 10ml is a bit small for a regular mix. The 15ml will last me for a reasonable time since I rotate several mods. 20ml wouldn't be a bad size but I don't have any and I have plenty of the 15's so I'm sticking with those. I use 2 120ml bottles for my plain peppermint and 2 60's for my Blackberry Mix. That way I always have a back-up mixed.
I have used FA Honey in a recipe that called for 0.25% (10% dilution) or 0.08% for 30mls . I did not dilute so probably used a drop or two. No offensive taste or smell — tasted just like honey to me.
Was there a sweeter flavor in your cranberry mix that could have steered the cranberry it in the wrong direction?
