I have spent my free time today coiling and wicking my brand new GeekVape Creed tank. It is a pain to install coils but I didn't find it difficult to wick. There is so much no one tells you about these tanks with interchangeable airflow chambers. :cry: Turns out that for my kind of juice, the one I didn't use is the best. Switching it out after the tank is filled is messy work. It is done now and I am using it on my Therion 75C with Replay, vaping Iced Cranberry Gin. The flavor is great and it doesn't leak ONE BIT! The 6.5ml juice capacity is a huge plus. Yes, I know this isn't mixing related but wanted to share with my closest vape buddies. :)

    I’ve been looking at that but really don’t need another dual coil tank sitting around unused. I bought the Zeus dual and don’t use it. I’m just too lazy to fool around with dual tanks.

    Did you get the single coil plug with yours? Thanks for the mini review btw.

    Duals are just too much for me most days so they sit. Rda only for dual builds from now on.

    I got the Zeus dual with the idea of only building singles in it. The single's post holes are backwards for how my coil jig wraps. It works fine.

    I was using office white oval labels and a sharpie w name and date but then I started to feel a bit embarrassed because so many people had such nicely typed out labels. So I bought a Brothers label maker.

    Tbh I still like the oval hand written ones better lol!

    Here you can see a combo of labels lol!

    Masking tape on empty bottles before mixing. Write on them as they're filled.
    Although laziness is why I'm trying to cycle through all my bottles. I don't know which is 10mg and which is 6mg because I got lazy and can only trust ones with completely new unscribbled over labels.
    Just a thought...The measurements for even medical/lab grade dropper bottles and beakers are always approximate. A small one can be off by as much as 2-4 ml or right on the money. The bigger they get, more variance is possible. Only graduated cylinders are exact. If I’m mixing a number of 30ml bottles, none will be filled to the same level even though they all have the same amount put in from a grad. cylinder. Frustrating, but true

    No, the only ones I saw anywhere are the standard editions without the single coil insert. I have gotten used to dual coils with my Manta collection but I have to say that the Creed is a royal PITA to insert coils so I was wishing it was a single coil tank. So far, I am liking it though so maybe it was worth the trouble.

    I use syringes for mixing.
    My bottles from the same places all end up the same. But I've noticed my re-used bottles from pre-made liquids are off from the measurements they sold them as. My 15ml's are mixed into the necks so they were under filling. My 30ml's are mixed much lower than they filled them to so they were over filling. But their old designs were much smaller and they were probably under filling.
    With the flavoring bottles when I mix 10ml it's under where they're filled.

    But I was talking making labels with masking tape. Recipe name, mg, date.
    Although when I checked inventory I did it by making measuring bottles out of empties to hold up to the flavoring bottles. I don't think I would trust those to mix by.
