    I have to do a bunch of cleaning and putting away all this gear I dragged out to organize/label. I have a notary coming on Monday to sign papers to fix the deed on the place in KY that the title co messed up. I really have to sell that place asap.

    I do plan to add flavor to my cheesecake mixes and mix up a clone of DL Lemon Tart.
    Didn’t know you had a place in KY.Quite away from Ga

    You people are enablers. :D I just bought a Solo at the great price with free shipping from the link that @rosesense posted. I got the red/blue because it looks more pink/purple than red/blue in the photos. I don't know if I will love it but the price is right and it will be great with my rainbow RTAs.

    PS - I HATED the original Zeus but I really like the Zeus X. Once I figured out the wicking, the flavor is excellent!

    Are you doing single or double coil? I just didn’t take to the X.

    The original Zeus and I just didn't get along. It was probably me but I couldn't ever really get it right. I am sorry I can't be more specific because I bought two when they first came out and ended up giving both away a LONG time ago. The X is really nice and has great flavor for top AF rta. I haven't tried it with a single coil and no doubt, a single coil rta would be better with a single battery mod, so I will have to look around. I rather like the Intake though it is tricky to get the wicking right on that one. It took quite a bit of practice to nail it but I finally did.

    That’s too bad that you got rid of them. I love the original Zeus and would have gladly traded you for the two Zeus X I have. One hasn’t even been opened.

    Only about 8 hour drive. I bought it about 7 months ago with the intention of moving there to help with my granddaughter who has medical issues. I then realized I am not up to the whole thing so I put it on the market with no luck. Recently discovered the title co. made a mistake so I have to clear that up before I can sell it. I am going to take a loss but I have to get out from under it.

    I MUST stop buying new gear, simply can't afford to keep it up. I do plan to list a few things on the classies that I will never use as soon as I get organized.

    I’ve had on/off successes with the Intake. Glad to know it’s not just me. I put it in the “use if every other tank breaks” box lol. I only do single coil, but I’m always interested in a new tank.

    I’ve had good luck with the intake and keep two in my rotation.

    I hope you can sell that without taking to much of a loss.

    I’m waiting for the Aleve to kick in before finishing the dirt work and finally mixed up 15ml of Grack recipe to try. I also grabbed one of two bottles of holy sundae to try that I accidentally mixed twice before trying.

    At least you're almost done with the dirt.

    Since I have started a little PANIC MODE ! buying, I am asking again for some outstanding chocolate flavors, and a good place for PG and VG.
    And it's time to mix some today....
    I buy my PG/VG from Bulk Apothecary. I have been using it in my DIY experimenting and it seems perfectly fine to me. I was referred to BA by DIY enthusiasts on ECF. Because it is the only PG/VG I have purchased and used I have nothing to compare it with.

    WF Chocolate Chunks, VT Chocolate Mousse, HA Australian Chocolate. If you like dark chocolate then you'll like VT Dark Chocolate. There is also TFA Bittersweet Chocolate

    There were several good ones named already. I really like MB glamour chocolate too.

    Are you doing single or double coil? I just didn’t take to the X.

    I haven't had it long and have only used in dual coil. The first time I wicked it, I was decidedly unimpressed. After wicking a bit differently, there was a world of difference. I won't go all the way to love, but I do like the Zeus X very much. I will try single-coil next time. I never really managed to love the Creed in single-coil so my expectations are low.

    I think mine is either silver or gunmetal. If I can find it, you can have it. :) I have dozens of rtas... but the two that perplexed me the most are the Intake and the true... two people said were easy peasy. I had immediate success with others, but not those! Nice that we have plenty of choices, and people to share our oops with ;)

    Thanks for the offer. If you do find it - don't put yourself out looking for it - I would take it off your hands.
