One of those liters is that rank brown stuff from River. It tastes fine but still. DARNIT. I may end up getting one more but I have nowhere to put it. I already have two liters not in bottles because I don't have room in the freezer and I just stuck them in there in the original packaging. I could take it to my Mom's.
You almost certainly have enough already.

Rainy, nasty out here today. Dog is not pleased lol. I might put together a couple mixes after I clean a load of tanks I’ve been ignoring. Sadly, they’ve proven they’re not going to clean themselves :lol:

    Vaporesso has the most device options and a good selection of mesh coils in the gtx line. My favorite is the .3 ohm mesh but it's not a mtl. They do have a 1.2 and a .8 in mesh. The gtx coils fit several of their devices. They work in the pm30, pm80, pm80se, Xiron, GTX tank that comes with the Gen nano, and there might be more that I can't think of right now.
    Of those, what is your fav tank?

    Like I said, I prefer the .3 coils for dtl. The GTX is the only one that is a tank. The others are pod devices. My favorite with the .3 coil was actually the Xiron but if you did the Gen nano then you'd get the mod with the tank that you could use with other stuff if for some reason you didn't like it.

    Hello Random people. Checking in. I just completed my butterscotch sfts Thought I'd impart what I learned.

    Butterscotch (FA): Medium strength. Leans toward the buttery side (vs the brown sugar side). Good flavor.
    Butterscotch (FW): Medium + strength. Even heavier on the butter vs FA.
    Butterscotch (FLV): The weakest of all I tried. Kind of had a nutty finish that tempered the buttery flavor.
    Natural Butterscotch (FW): Medium/mild strength. Good balance between the butter and brown sugar.
    Smoked Butterscotch (FLV): This one was most different versus the other butterscotch flavors. Kind of a peppery taste. Yes, a bit smokey. Wouldn't want this as a stand alone but could work in a blend.

    If I had to pick just one I would pick the Natural Butterscotch (FW). It wasn't overly buttery and had a nice balance to it. Not too strong.

    As part of this project I also sft'd Salted Caramel (FW). It's not a butterscotch but butterscotch and caramel can be lumped in the same category and why I wanted to try it. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised. It's not salty, but the salt is present by shaping the caramel flavor. It is not sweet. Actually kind of tastes like a light toffee. Sort of a nutty finish. It doesn't have that burnt flavor that is so common in caramel...and this is where I think the salt shapes this flavor. It takes away that deep burnt flavor of the caramel and kind of brightens it up a little. It's close enough to a salted caramel in the edible form that it is deserving to be called salted caramel. I could vape this by itself and not complain. I believe this could be a very versatile flavor that can be used in bakery, fruits, tobacco, etc.. I will be experimenting with this extensively as my next step. The butterscotch could possibly fill out this flavor. Very happy I stumbled on this flavor.

    That salted caramel FW was voted the best caramel in a run off of about 50 different caramel flavors in a group I am in. Out of all the caramels I have that I enjoy it's number 3. Glad you enjoyed it.

    Ok, if I decide to get the gen nano I would get 2 boxes each of .06 ,.08 and 1.2.

    It has the Axom chip in it. The only way I can remotely describe it is it reminds me of when I went from the first gen MVP back in 2014 to the Provari. Pulse mode just really delivers. I have DNA mods, but that Axom chip, as far as power delivery to the atty, it's just incredible. I vape mtl too and even noticed a difference.

    So, as you're MTL also, which coil do you think would be best?

    I am not familiar with the tank, but... because I do both I would get all of them just like you are. If I primarily did mtl I may lean towards the 1.2 ohm. However, if you are vaping at low watts who knows. You may like the other coils too... I guess it's really about the airflow.

    Then again, check to see what the recommended wattage is for the other two coils and see if it fits your preferred parameters.

    The mod itself is so nice though.. It has a coating that won't wear off with daily use, it feels and looks nice too.

    Yeah, the airflow is another thing. I like my air.

    I have the Sceptre loaded with VCT. The airflow adjustment on this thing is amazing. I am actually liking it in the middle of mtl and dtl. I am using the .5 ohm coil and flavor is good. I'll use it a bit and knock a review out. My 3mg nicotine level is satisfying at the highest power setting too. I am rather impressed.

    Yeah, the airflow is another thing. I like my air.

    One thing to keep in mind is that the higher the resistance of the coil then the smaller the opening is on it so the coil itself is going to restrict the airflow. The tank itself has a nice slotted airflow on it. I would probably go with the .6 coil and use the airflow on the tank do the adjusting. I don't remember which coils it comes with. I think it might come with a .6 but can't remember.
