Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

@hittman I know you have tons of stuff BUT have you considered that you might not be happy using a good deal of it? I know you've won a few contests. Is the stuff you won stuff you wouldn't mind using? Even more so with all the things you're sent to review. I know for the most part you don't get to pick and I'm quite sure you don't like them all. Might be a good idea to get rid of/sell the stuff you won't use and replace it with stuff you will? Just a thought.

Wish me luck. Gonna get some coffee mix in a tank.

I just got paid for a custom rosary order. I was going to put the money in savings, but I've kinda got spooked about my hardware situation. I've got plenty of tanks, rbas, etc., but it's the mods that give out. Not sure I have 20+ years worth. I went back to Kings of Vapor and they still had 5 yellow Smoant Battlestars. I bought them all. Fortunately I have plenty of backup squonk bottles. They each come with a rba so I'm set in that area. I recently ordered a liter nic too. I think I'm good.

If anyone is leery about ordering from Chinese vendors now, because of the shipping time, you might want to consider Health Cabin.

I placed 2 orders with them in December. Both were actually shipped the next day (not just the label created). Each one made it to US Customs at O'Hare airport in only 2 days. The only thing that slowed them down at all was sitting in Customs for a few days and then the final leg of delivery by the USPS. But both arrived faster than any FT orders I've placed in the last 5 years.

I've had good luck with health cabin also. Along with them, sourcemore and everzon I've placed several orders with and have had decent shipping times. The smart China vendors are shipping using 4px into the states and then transferring the packages to USPS. However, that will end soon.

I have considered selling some stuff. More so stuff that I bought than review items. Doing reviews has helped me get out of my rut of only black, silver, and gray mods. I love the red argus gt that I bought. I did buy some stuff though a year or so ago just to stock up that I don't know if I'll use or not like the 200 kanger clapton coils. I thought if I didn't have anything else and couldn't build rtas that I'd have those but I honestly don't like the kanger tanks very much any more.

Just a reminder that Heartland has been shipping UPS for my last couple orders of nic so the usps thing shouldn't really affect them for getting nic but I have a feeling that the free shipping will end and prices will probably go up. With the liter I just got, I have about 10.5 in the freezer. That should last me forever.

Good morning everyone!

Yes , I posted a review on the Gen X.

Dang, I missed that one... I looked for it; is it in a thread on the supplier forum?

Sounds like you’ve had good luck liking the review stuff. That’s a good thing. The only Kanger tank I still like is the STM but I don’t use it often. I have 2 which is enough.

I’m almost positive that this and FE lemon are the same thing.

Lemon-SC

I could be wrong, but FE Lemon is now Lemon JF. FE-- Flavor Express old company name, which is now Jungle Flavors.

It seems I may be ok with this coffee. The recipe is good anyway. @Zazie
Irish Cream Coffee
VTA Bourbon 1 1/2%
FA Cappuccino 1%
FA Irish Cream 2%

 

[Skeebo]

BCF told me in an email that they are in fact the same.

Odd, Super Concentrates (SC) are made in China... where as FE was the old Flavor Express brand, which is now Jungle Flavors. I guess I stand corrected, good to know.

I just bought a liter of the Aged Bourbon Cream flavoring by Real Flavors out of Canada. I love that stuff. I calculated I can get 100 bottles of mix with that liter using 10 ml per 100 ml bottle. If I use 10 ml per 100 ml bottle once a month, it will last me 8.333 years. Every two months it will last me 16.667 years. Can I freeze the flavoring to make it last? Or refrigerate it? Has anybody ever frozen flavoring?

I have 4 liters, but I may try to fit one more in before all this goes into effect. I think Heartland is like a two hour drive from me.... I kinda like Oklahoma, drove through there a couple of months ago to pick up our German Shepherd.

This looks really neat.
Any thoughts?

IDK, I never bought that much of one flavor. Hope you don’t tire of it.

My doctor just called with an automated message that they will be receiving the Moderna covid vaccine soon and they will let us know so we can schedule our appointments. Thank goodness! Anyone else excited to get their vaccine like me? Or leery like my parents and my son? I'm getting it! I want to do everything I can to not get covid. And I'm pretty certain my employer recommends we all get it as well. I just talked my son into getting it with me...he really does not want to do it though.

I'm pretty sure freezing it wouldn't be wise, but refrigerating it would probably be a good idea.

I had to google it. I don’t think I’d like a clear mod that lights up.

I doubt it...I've been vaping it nonstop the last few weeks. It's my favorite. Let's hope not!

You can turn the led lights off.
I think I will get the amber one.

Due to the autoimmune disorder I enjoy I am supposed to be in the next batch/wave of people to get it in my area.
