    Ive had a successful day especially considering being in a flare. But I finished setting up my station and mixed up 5 juices, 4 of which are new to me.

    I also got a bunch of vape mail with doo dads etc.,., inc a Beserker that I have no idea on how to attach it to a 510 connection! Lol!

    Some days ;)
    I got the 2 Kabuki clones today,thank you.:) Nice looking tanks but no idea when I'll have a chance to try one.Maybe next week. Too much stuff going now.

    TY. Nic I’m good on, but I’ve always ordered in the winter since by December we’re down to the 70-80’s depending. I’d hate to order a couple dozen flavors and have them doomed by the heat before I get them
    I realize you and I are in rather different climates; but I have ordered from the south, middle America, and the south west, at all different times of year (and temperatures). And I have never received a flavor concentrate that I could identify as "damaged" (by heat). Smell, appearance, and apparent strength, all seemed normal. Of course, I am not the most discerning person; so someone with a more sensitive palate, may feel differently. :D

    No mixing for me today. My ECX order should be here tomorrow which means I can mix @PJReid Cranberry Fizz on the Rocks although I do have a 20ml bottle sans the rocks.

    I did manage to order some Zlide 3D coils today. Still need more coils.
    Do you like the 3d coils better? I haven't been able to choose which I like best yet.

    I don't know what I want to make....
    I'm kind of tired of my reeses clone, caramel apple pie cheesecake, and strawberry cream pastry
    I'm kind of at the point where I can no longer taste these 3 vapes anymore....
    so well now what to make and work on...
    So many things......pick one.

    I once bought a bag of phenolic caps off of amazon for a reasonable price, I went to reorder them and they no longer carried them at that price! Seems like something a lot of people would want

    I did the same thing!! Fortunately I still have quite a few for my next liter of nic. I break it down into 4 250 mls w those caps and shrink wrap tape as well.

    I know I’ve seen the caps online Pat other stores and they were decent prices. I get free shipping so I try to do everything on amazon.

    I can go either way — the 3D or the Plexus 0.5. I let price make the decision for me. I used a new vendor for the 3D so I hope there will be no issues. Price was $8.95/box of five and then I had a 15% off code.

    Those mixes are kind of a “heavy’ flavor. I’m not exactly sure how to describe it but it’s opposite of light and refreshing like a cranberry sprite or maybe a tropical mix for summer.

    I am vaping another Boogenshizzle recipe. This one is named Juicy Strawberry Cream and the recipe is on ELR. Considering I am not a big fan of FA Juicy Strawberry, this mix is quite tasty for me or may be my taste has changed toward liking Juicy Strawberry.

    4% FA Juicy Strawberry
    0.8% FA Marshmallow
    0.8% FA Vienna Cream

    There was no suggested steep time so I steeped mine for five days.

    Same here — my last was the eGo prior to my recent purchase. I agree — swapping in a fresh battery is definitely more convenient although I do have other mods to use. Everything I have is either 18650 or 18500. Also have some 18350 that I do not use anymore but keeping just in case.

    My stash of Spinners and similar are still functional, and slowly dwindling as I evangelize.

    And usually have an even dozen mods going, all different flavors, of course. :facepalm:

    3 mechs are also in the vapocalypse box as well as backups for everything in use. Never know, an EMP might fry all the electronics ;)

    It is a FA UK blended flavor. Not available through FA IT.

    Careful how you say that! :lol:

    What flavorings do you have to work with?

    I'd not worry. They get much more heat when vaped :)

    Heartland Vapes. It is what I have most recently bought. It is clear, flavorless, and meets all my mixing needs. I also like that it is another smaller family-run US business. And, I find their service and speed, top notch.

    If you want to try a smaller size first, to see if it is going to work for you, they offer 120mL sizes (in the "DIY Sizes" tab) for $11.

    @NGAHaze brings up a good point though; we are getting to the hot time of the year. If you are ordering nicotine, I would do it soon, and maybe even check weather patterns for the next couple of weeks (between you and Oklahoma City). Because I am not sure I would want my nicotine stewing inside a 120℉+ truck trailer. :shock: :D[/

    I’ve decided to shell out over $12 for the FLV Alpine strawberry. I read or heard that even for those that normally can’t taste strawberry will be able to taste this concentrate.

    Has anyone tried it?
    I haven’t tried it but I look forward to your opinion on it. I love strawberry and was curious about FLV alpine strawberry’s flavor and if it indeed is stronger thus allowing for low % usage.

    Well if BCF doesn’t have their sale soon we’ll be waiting a long time b4 spending $13 until the next holiday!!

    Seriously though, I can taste strawberry but even at “high”median % it’s just not jumping out at me like it want it. I’m hoping this will help.

    I’ll be sure to give my thoughts.

    Where do you think I could buy some in reasonable quantities? Not 1000+ or something
