That is interesting. I can't recall seeing anything about the MD having leaking issues before. That is one of the reasons I bought a couple of them.
Wow. That sounds like it was quite the experience. Note to self: never order anything from DHGate.I'm gonna add some info, too, because there were several obstacles to not only finding them, but actually getting them. In May 2016, the Siren 2 was due to come out soon, and US vendors were sold out of Siren 1's. I'd had no interest in a Siren 1...until reading the thread about them, describing how good they were, but how hard they were to find then. @JustWondering1 definitely wanted more, and her enthusiasm for them just "rubbed off" on me somehow, while PMing back and forth with her. That was all it took, and we started searching. After a lot of dead-end searching, found some on DHGate and we both celebrated. Ordered $300 worth (including S/H) for the 2 of us. Was notified a week or 2 later that the seller actually didn't have any and couldn't get any. (Took almost 3 months, many emails back & forth, promises made and broken by them, etc...to get the $$ back.) During that time we'd found sellers in Canada who had them, but couldn't convince them to ship to the US. We thought that was it...we'd never get any. I finally contacted a very nice ECF member from Canada, who agreed to order them and have them delivered to him. He went out of his way to rebox them, do the Customs paperwork, and ship them to me. I then reboxed and sent hers on to her. Was a very long, drawn out quest...but we both finally ended up with the Siren 1's we wanted.
It's so hard to explain but I found this review and I think it nails it.
Like a cream that has aged in a barrel, slightly oaky. Great depth of flavor, sweet cream up front with the smoky bourbon being smooth and balanced well in the back. Fairly thick mouthfeel.
It's unique but I don't think everyone would like it. It's not very creamy and it's not very boozy...but it's a unique combination that strikes the balance between the two that makes it addictive to me. It's satisfying. I'm buying more just in case the vape world goes to hell. I want this in my arsenal.
I've read several complaints of the atty leaking from the turntable's slot--don't make me look for them. It may be user error, QC problem, or a design flaw. Watch Mark's video at 6:55. That turntable spins and tends to pop out of the hole under the coil. This may be the culprit. Pure speculation on my part.
@JustWondering1 will know more about it.
That looks like the perfect size. But I'm tellin ya...my front yard has a huge slope and I'm not sure I could get it to the backyard (the only place I could use it). I would have to go up my neighbors steep driveway then onto my yard. reviews say it won't handle slopes.
My Dad deals with cars and he owns a shop and helps the city do things and they gave him two zero turn mowers for work he did for them. He brought one over for me to use and he almost didn't get it up the front hill to get it into the back. He got it up and it never would crank for me and it sat there for a few months until I told him to come get it before it ruined. The guys at work thought I was crazy, but I'm not a guy and things like that don't excite me. I mean it wouldn't work (for me). Dad could get it cranked.
My back yard is about 100 x 70 feet...too small for a huge mower. I always say cutting grass with a push mower, especially my yard, is going to keep me alive longer. Until it kills me. And too, getting into my head, I'm a single Mom with a lot on her plate. If it goes kaput on me, how am I supposed to get it down that hill to get someone to work on it? How could I ever get that thing to the dump? That's where my head is at. That mower does look perfect...if I could get it up the hill.
Cutting grass yesterday and struggling lit a fire under my .... to get back into shape. When I was in shape, I could cut this yard without stopping in two hours. On a normal day now, I do it in 3.5 hours. Yesterday took all afternoon it was so hot, and I didn't do any edging, weedeating, or blowing. Almost killed me. We all have sloped yards (mine being the worst and it's more like a mountain and you have to weedeat mine in front as you can't mow it)...I do not recommend it. When the time comes to hire it out it will cost me a fortune to get anyone to cut this yard.
That is disappointing to hear. Hopefully most people don't have leaking problems with it.
Good morning all woke up early my kid drove me nuts last night. Uhg. Long story. I have to get this henna off my bead but too sleepy =yet.
I have a siren 1, bought by accident for the stash sounds like I should vape it. LOL.

Btw, I like this reviewer. I had never seen his stuff before. But he comes across as pretty unbiased. It can sometimes be tough to figure out which reviewers are basically just paid advertisers.
Mark is good people. And he's funny. I like him a lot. And he's a member here--posts sometimes, once in a blue moon.
Not really--or it shouldn't be. The more you know...
There are no perfect tanks. If there were, everybody would own one. You just need to learn how to use them properly. They all have their idiosyncrasies.
Talk to @JustWondering1 --she owns one and is very happy with it.
Happy Monday, mixers.
More heat here as well, thinking I want out of the kitchen!

Can you leave the mower on the back where you will use it?
My Cadet does slopes but I don't know how steep yours is. Mine goes up the ramp into the storage shed with no problem, only slope I have. I read all the reviews on it before I bought it and some people said it did their slopes so I dunno. I sure love mine, mows in reverse and is as easy as driving a car.
His name is Mark Todd.
Good morning mixers. I was disappointed to find out that my Rep voted Yea for the vape mail bill. I was looking up to see the status of the bill this weekend and stumbled onto a page that showed how everyone voted.
here for help again. Hoping some of you more experienced mixers can help me attain this answer that I have been racking my brains to get.
I found and made a recipe of all Flavorah flavorings. The total of flavoring only added up to 5%. I made this juice 70vg.
After I made it and waiting for it to steep I thought to myself "5%, that's not enough flavorings, why didn't I increase it?"
So I increased it. By 'editing' the recipe on ELR and then subtracting the difference between 7% and 5% and adding that.
Now it is way to strong. Yes, I know, I should have tasted it before I did this.
How can I figure out how much more PG and VG to add to get it back to its original state?
I would have thought the way to do it would be the same way I figured out the flavorings but NO because when checking the difference between the two, in the one with only 5% flavorings, the PG is actually higher then the one with the 7% flavorings.
This gave me a whole new sense of confusion.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm not great at math like that. Just wanted to tell you I have a couple of recipes with under 4% flavor that are very flavorful.
Very steep on the side yard where I would drive it up. Large wide mowers get up it but I don't think a small one would. And if it quit on me I have no clue how I would get it down to be serviced. I have to weedeat the steepest part of my front yard. Barely can stand on it.
