All I read and hear on NPR on the topic of vaping is negative. It's my news media of choice. I just sent an email to NPR politely complaining about the one sided reporting (negative) on vaping. I'm hoping they read it, and I believe they will, and perhaps they might do something about it. It was worth a shot.

I've tried before, too. Then I realized that one of NPR's main sponsors is the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. They are one of the biggies in promoting tobacco control, and are, of course, anti-vaping. They are tied in to the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids and all the others. :(

    I got vape mail today too but not as much as Fran. I got the minifit but Breazy didn’t send the pods I ordered with it. Sent them an email. I also got some drip tips and a Tesla punk 86w.

    The minifit comes with a pod. Have you tried it yet?

    I’m about to try the Nautilus AIO I got. If I like it I hope I don’t need to buy pods real soon. Right in the middle of my Christmas shopping and I can’t afford vape stuff too. On the other hand I have at least 100 boxes of nauti coils so I hope I really like it

    I still need nautilus coils. One is always part of my day. Keep waiting on that big sale somewhere...

    They are also funding Glantz and his anti-vaping "research."

    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'm on the fence with it so far.
    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.

    Pirate's Creed, that's the one...oddly delicious in a strange way. Patriot tobacco from Goodejuice and Freedom Juice were definitely using Red Burley from Flavorah. In the early days (way back in 2014) there was something special about Halo juices for me.

    I need some help. I have to mix some juice for the gal that sent me all this stuff. @Sugar_and_Spice. Or anybody else good at this.I need to mix 120ml of base mix. This need to come out to 4% nic and 60pg/40vg. There will be 25% flavor in pg.
    Oh and the nic I’ll be using is 60mg.

    Did I mess that up?

    Thank you but I screwed that up.Let me see if I can explain this better. Their are 2 different juices I have to mix.What I want to do is mix a bottle of base that will come out right. I’m not doing this well. Let’s say I have 2 30ml bottles. I put 25% flavor in each bottle. Now I want to mix a 120ml bottle of base mix (nic/pg/vg) that will come out to 4% nic when I fill the bottles with it. Have I confused you yet?

    Hey Fran. Are you trying to mix a 120mL base, for use in mixing, that AFTER adding 25% flavor to a 30mL bottle, comes out to 4% (40mg\mL) nicotine, or am I lost here (common occurence)?
