Random DIY mixing and More

A lot of the pod mods have the fill plug on the bottom.
Yup I've been using 3 diff Voopoo Argus pro internal batteries all with 510 adapters n Mesh rats on them and a Capt Link 100w mod that takes a 21700 I normally keep my Doom X mesh Rita on cause if has the best flavor of the 5 mesh rats I have..i use the precut strips but lately been using the spool of vandy vape SS#150 n cut it to size n man after it breaks in the mesh has awesome flavor ..the pod coils are cool but got too expensive.That spool of mesh is 5$ for five foot roll lol n each Lil strip lasts over a month.I also use the VVApe N80 n the Kanthal..its a STEAL! AND ithe wickibg is really easy so between that n my DIY recipes in saving so much money n recipes have been coming out awesome.I just make sht up in my head, jof it down and approx percentages n make it n its usually pretty damn good if I keep it safe like fduits, fruits n creams, fruit ices n of coarse some desserts n lemonades

@Territoo you ought to try your Dvarw again....just a wicking prob...here's a vid from @Robfisher for the Exocet wicking method.....



Have a good one :wub:

That's the wick method I've been using and it's working good for me. Had some practice last week. I thought I'd try this mango I had in the back of my little fridge, so I rewicked and tried it (not my cup of tea) had to clean it out and start over and got a slight leak so rewicked again, forgot the cap that time (argh) I use 3mm on the DL job because it looked like it needed it.:)

You often only need to tweak your cotton on the outside of the wicking ports to cover any gaps. Flavour is better with a 2.5 id but YMMV :)

    Good whatever time of day it is in your area!!! :)
    Coffee is calling before it gets way too hot and humid outside, so headed there.
    Will find indoor things to do this week.
    Stay safe and catch y'all later.....:wub:

    Oh @FranC and @DavidOck , someone watched a bunch of videos and has some ideas. Not sure if I should find shelter or congratulate her....:w00t:

    So is it just a plain cookie mix?

    I haven’t let it steep the recommended time yet but get a vanilla cookie with some custard. There’s supposed to be some tobacco in it but I’m not really tasting it yet.

    Within the last couple weeks...someone else had mentioned that a 3mm coil had caused a problem with their Dvarw. I don't remember exactly what the problem was though.

    I put 3mm mtl Clapton coils in both of my DL FL Dvarws and they work fine but guess it could be an issue with the mtl version.

    Exocet method??

    Yes, it had nothing to do with the Dvarw. It was me not getting the right amount of cotton in the coil the first time. I pulled too much off and the cotton was too loose.

    Yes, if the bottom pin was still in place, it couldn't, unless it was ripped or cracked and pulled out or fell out. That's why I asked if the little white insulator was still intact...meaning not damaged, torn, frayed, etc.
    That makes sense, ty :)

    I finally caught up. I've been out of commission for the last 4 days dog sitting my mom's fat spoiled dog. She's the sister I never wanted. I've been covered in dog hair and spit for four days now.

    All this talk about Dvarws. Someone piffed me one and I couldn't get it to stop leaking. I put it away in my stash. It's the only one I own.
    It's in the wicking.

    Yes!! I always check (and fix) wicking when filling.
