Morning, mixers.

Yesterday's scattered showers apparently decided to gang up here, non-stop. Supposed to be dry today, but so far it seems the clouds haven't gotten the message.

I’m sure I have some antique vaping goods to toss.

I think probably most of us who've been vaping a while have similar boxes or bins. Heck, I still have a mess of T3S clearos....

    It does have auto draw. I’m guessing I can hit the button to preheat the coil?
    Sure you can do that. I have a pod somewhere here that has a button and auto draw. I always use the button to vape because I’m so used to doing it.

    I think I’m going to use the auto to save on battery life.

    From Innokin's MVP Pod page:

    "Quickly press the power button twice to switch between two power levels. When the LED turns green, low-power mode (11W) is selected, maximizing battery efficiency and providing a moderately warm, mellow vaping experience. When the LED turns red, high-power mode (12.5W) is selected, increasing warmth, intensifying flavors, and maximizing nicotine delivery."

    It has dual activation. Auto draw or button press to vape.

    ETA: Low power mode 11w. High power mode 12.5w. o_O

    Can't see that which switch, auto or manual, would make any difference. If it's on, it's on. Just use which ever method is best for you.

    I don’t see why one or the other would use more battery life.
    Maybe a microsecond might make a difference? idk

    Tl;dr. Jk :lol:. What’s the first instruction regarding instructions? Jk, again.

    Thanks David :)

    With how slow it's been on ECF I am beginning to think that during the server migration we were somehow transported to the leisurely life in Monowi, Nebraska.

    Elsie Eiler has been the mayor and only resident of Monowi since her husband, Rudy, died in 2004. She has run the Monowi Tavern for 50 years.

    According to the US Census, Monowi is the only incorporated place in the US with just one resident, and Eiler is the mayor, clerk, treasurer, librarian, bartender and only person left in the US' tiniest town.

    I bet Elsie has some good stories to tell.


    THANKS - What a great story . . . Just Sayin' . . . :thumbs:

    Starfruit Pineapple Cake

    WF Starfruit 0.8%
    SSA Thai Pineapple 1%
    FW White Cake 2%
    FA Cookie 0.5%
    VTA Vanilla Cream 1%
    VTA Milk Fresh 1%

    WF Starfruit, though used at a low percent, is a stronger flavor that manages to punch it's way through to the fore in this mix. SSA Thai Pineapple blends well with starfruit. You get the starfruit up front and the pineapple on the backside.

    FW White Cake is just an excellent cake. I wanted something to help deliver a crust note to the cake. FA Cookie at a low percent does that very nicely.

    VTA's Vanilla Cream and Milk Fresh add a very nice creaminess.

    It's a tasty mix. Smooth. Not dry. Nice mouthfeel. The wetness of the starfruit and pineapple are experienced.

    I will be mixing a larger batch of this.

    @Zazie can you please add this to your blog? TIA :)

    That was fast. I’m not big on pineapple so I only have one. Should be fine mixed with the Starfruit. I have FA Cosa Rica Pineapple. Looks pretty good to me. I’ll try it:)

    You get more of the starfruit than the pineapple in the mix even though the pineapple is a higher percent. With the SSA Thai Pineapple I'm getting more of a tease versus a featured flavor. I really like how starfruit and pineapple work together.

    FA Costa Rica Pineapple should do the same as the Thai pineapple.

    And I know you like FA Milk, so that will work well in place of VTA's milk. I like both milk flavors.

    Sounds great. Just a tease on the pineapple will be fine.
