    I just started season 2. I’m saving it for when I’m off over Xmas.
    I’ve actually never watched any Star Wars but there have been so many commercials over the years I feel like I watched it

    I took some of the steeped cheesecake base and added 1% Shisha Vanilla and 2% LB Ice Cream. It's only 10ml, so if it sucks, no big deal. But I thought it might be interesting addition to the flavors.
    Hope you like it.

    Looks kinda weird shaped by the pics.

    Isn’t the Gen X old ?

    It was released after the Gen S and nano but they never sent any out for review. It’s basically a Gen S made out of aircraft aluminum. sourcemore sent it for review.

    So basically the same thing made out of something different.?

    Yes, but I’m going to try to do a full review since it’s for sourcemore instead of vaporesso. If it was for vaporesso I’d probably make it short and link my other review for the features.

    Good morning mixers. I’m up way too early for a Saturday. I’ll most likely go back to bed for a while.

    I used to only mix 12mg which was a good decrease from 20 but with all the high output sub ohm stuff I’m getting for review, I’m going to mix a few samples of 3mg to try. 6mg is a bit strong for me at 50-70 watts which is where several items have been rated. I don’t see myself going down to 3 on everything but at least to have some steeped on hand for reviews might be good.

    Up until about 6 months ago, I was strictly a DL, higher wattage vaper. I would always either vape 1.5mg or 3mg eliquid. 1.5mg was a bit less common from eliquid companies though. This was obviously before I starting the DIY thing. I can see 6mg being really strong at the 50-70 wattage.

    I was mixing at 20mg a couple years ago and went down to 18, 15, and finally 12mg. I still mix most stuff at 12 but started mixing 6mg for reviews. Even at 6 it gets to be a bit much when I get over 45 watts. I have found that a lot of coils rated 50+ watts can be run quite well at lower watts. I’m running coils now in the Gen X at 40-45 watts that are supposed to run starting at 50.

    I agree about the wattage. My go to tank was the Freemax Mesh Pro, and I would always use it at about 10 watts less than the recommended wattage for the coils.

    I never go above 35 W. I try but usually it’s just too hot for me. What I like to do with new mixes is try them at different wattages but I always go back down to my 35 W it seems. I am officially at 1.5 mg down from 2 mg. I really think that mine is just a hand to mouth addiction and not a nic addiction. I’ll stay here a while and go down to 1 mg in the future.

    That’s a good idea to have the different percentages mixed and ready.
