Random DIY mixing and More

[Zazie]

I saw an old man doing the same thing with bags of frozen shrimp... and they are exactly the same.

In olden (pre-COVID) days, I would frequently rearrange items in the store that were out of order. Luckily, I barely go shopping, so I'm rarely in a position where I have to fight off the urge. This is good, because it's a struggle for me to leave messy what's in disarray.

I never reviewed the zenith/zlide but own a couple. The nano is smaller than the kroma r. The gtx tank is ok and I get pretty good flavor from it. I haven’t tried the .8 or 1.2 coils in it so can’t really say. I know from using the gtx coils in the pm80se that the higher the resistance the less airflow the coil allows because of the design of the coil. I didn’t like that the gtx tank didn’t have a top cap with a fill port.

Thanks. I like the look of that tank.

Doesn't matter, it's the same vitamin; D (D2) is derived from plants, D3 from animal sources. I prefer D3 because it's supposedly more efficient.

good.

Here's one of 'em.

Here's 2 of em!

Getting frustrated with my coppervape hussar project x. It has such good flavor, but the tolerances are so dang tight I just about threw this thing at the wall. I'll vape the tank I filled and then shelve it.

I'm glad to hear that. I mean, sorry, I'm not glad that you're getting frustrated, I'm just happy that I saw your report. It's been on my maybe list for a while, but I was having second thoughts. Thanks for helping me decide.

I need to mix some lmn# today as I’m getting low.

Has anyone else gotten the ares 2 yet. I bought one and am not super happy with the flavor I’m getting with it on the first build. I used one of the included coils but may have used too much wick. I’m not sure.

Uh oh. Mine is still somewhere in transit. This is not good news. How's the airflow? Can you get a nice loose MTL from it?

 

[Katya]

I cleaned out the ares 2 and wound my own 3mm 316 coil reading.8 ohms. Filled it with a new mix and I’m still not that impressed with the flavor. It’s better than it was but not great. I might have gotten spoiled from testing the Freemax kits. Every one of them had great flavor.

Freemax kits? What's the atty that comes with those?

Yes it’s loose enough but so far the flavor is lacking to me. I did get a couple hints from SP013 so I’ll try mounting the coil lower next time. I loaded the same recipe in a serpent elevate and it’s almost too much flavor so I know it’s not the new recipe.

And hello to all y'all Random Mixers.

The maxus kits came with the fireluke 3 and M pro 2. The twister 30w came with the fireluke 22. None of them are rebuildable.

Thanks, Hitt. I'm not a flavor junkie, and I often vape unflavored, so that doesn't worry me all that much. Also, as you know, you may improve the flavor by finessing your build. To me airflow is the most critical--I hate tight, or what some people call, "proper" MTL.

Right, that's what I thought!

One more question, since you're a Zenith user--is Ares 2 comparable to the Zenith/Zlide coils flavorwise?

Hiya, Pretty Bird

Hello, Frannie!

This thread of yours is moving at warp speed. I can't keep up.

I figured out the % for my tobacco mix (making it strong and will dilute it in stages later)

I like an airy MTL also.

Question...are all three tanks in the newest giveaway all MTL? Based on the drip tips they look MTL.

 

[*RJ*]

NVM...I looked up all three tanks and they are all MTL. Not for me. Good luck everyone!

Here's one of 'em.

Here's 2 of em!

Before the Chinese stole his US Patent, before Gub'ment "Deeming", before "Cloud Chasing"....
When many were "tilt 'n' swirl", dripping, and punching cartomizers....
When the Provarinati Saloon, REOVille, and the Big Thread were rolling 400 or more posts a night....
Robert E. O'Neil (founder of REOS Mods) modified a basic 18mm dripping atomizer into a bottom feed rebuildable for his customers. Originally from Empire Mods, Rob bored a hole up through the center fire pin, grooved the feed channel under the bottom of the deck, and opened a port through the porcelain deck just below where the coil would be. Easy feed wire ports and Phillips head screws on the two post set up. No wasted space inside, and a small air port to allow a cigarette-like draw. Easy and forgiving, this little flavor monster was a favorite of REONauts for years.
I've been using two every day for about six years now. Done the Veritas, the Hellfire, the Hornet, the Smoevesto (authentic and clone), the Galaxies, the Atomic, the Cyclone, the Chalice III, the Siren 2, the Berserker, the NarDA, the Strike, the Achilles, and others I can't even remember.
Still prefer the RM2.

They are @*RJ* from what I'm hearing about the Ares 2 I am glad I waited, but you just never know, airy to one person is something else to another.

So we have had at least 3 people look at the house (4 -5 hrs on market) and like, one is supposedly making an offer.

I hate a first day offer. Makes a bidding war harder. And you are like, "Do I go for the convenience of the offer and getting the house of my hands, that is A BIG ONE" or, "Do I tell them pay more avoid bidding wars," or do I just "Suck it."

I am glad the realtor fixed the photos. Somewhat. I don't GET realtors they seem terminally incapable of making or even SELECTING good photos. You would think. The photos are like, BEARBLE now. I think I hurt my realtor's feelings but I was like, "Marcy, come on. Think like a buyer. If there is no picture of the kitchen you, or *I* anyway am going to go, "I don't think I will bother."

Meh, we will see what happens. I did not want to hurt my realtor's feelings but I would not have gone live with those photos. Everyone who saw the bad photos saw the house with the bad photos ONCE.

Realtors are odd, though. LOL.

It would be so nice to be rid of it quickly. That is the other part.
