I haven’t had Prime in ages. Wasen’t one of my Halo favs but it didn’t taste like turkey skin. I would remember that.

I liked a lot of their "tobacco" flavors. I probably ordered more Prime 15 than any other eliquid I vaped, including Bobas Bounty. Halo also had one named after a pirate or something that was pretty good too, but it also had a mild cleaning agent twang going on like Torque 56.

When I first got into DIY I was into trying a lot of tobacco flavors. I was a little disappointed when some of the flavors I bought tasted just like some of my favorite tobaccos from Halo.

FLV Tatanka-- base for Torque 56 and possibly lower percentage in Tribeca.
FA Soho and 555 Gold INW-- Prime 15
FLV Red Burley-- is definitely in Freedom juice.

I guess I was disappointed because I figured Halo had something I couldn't get, or maybe I'm having flashbacks from finding out Santa wasn't real. :lol:

    This may have been covered multple times but I'm new to DIY : what's the best way to store flavour concentrates? I've been adding nic and PG/VG to juice "doublers" for over 4 years so know about nic storage but I'm currently storing my flavour concentrates at room temp in a closed cupboard. This ok?
    The coolest and darkest place you have is best.

    I can't say I liked Torque 56 but it kept me off cigs. I always kept a bottle mixed that was higher than the % that was my normal.

    Can you tell me where I can find the web browser on mine? I entered my wifi account and password and the damn thing called some lady in China.

    You have to dial 1-900 first then you will be billed by the minute.:shock:

    I used to have a tribeca clone recipe and thought it was ry4double, and one or two other ingredients. I know I didn't use tatanka or any other tobacco flavor because I didn't have any when I made it.

    Tatanka alone is a tough flavor to describe and I am not certain what kind of tobacco it is trying to mimic. I've seen TFA's RY4double in a lot of Tribeca clone recipes. I've had the flavor since I began DIY and I'm just starting to play with it. I do think RY4 double was used in Mr. E-liquid's popular RY4.

    I tried to like Ry4 double. I tried it in several recipes but I just couldn't get to liking it. Finally ended up piffing it to a friend. I know it's a popular flavor but not for me.

    I store mine in a closed box, in a closet, in my computer room, no problems so far.

    Which vendor for the graham cracker are you using? Does it impart flavor or is it mainly to add mouthfeel/density to the mix?

    All the flavors were tfa. I can taste the graham cracker at 3% in that mix. It's a little high on total flavor percentage but I didn't write it. I just copied it.

    I got vape mail and I think I'm in shock. Over 100 boxes of Aspire coils, a white Colossal, Vaporfi V-Grip mod, Aspire Nautilus AIO, Innokin EQ with extra pods, 3-4 10ml flavors from a forum friend and my BCF order.

    No vape related stuff for me this paycheck... Two clothing stores near my office are closing within the next month, so it was a work-pants and sweater-dress binge for me (20%-50% off). I lost weight, so none of my clothes fit me anymore (went from a size 14 to now an 8). Getting my car fixed & inspected tomorrow, so my money is all gone! :shock:

    Pirate's Creed is what you were thinking of, @Skeebo. I still have some of that, too. It's way too pipe/cigar tobaccoey for me.

    I thought Freedom Juice came the closest to a cigarette. Of the cheap, generic variety. Had that ashtray taste.
