Vaping since 8/9/2012
I ordered another liter last week but don’t think it has shipped yet. I really didn’t need it but the psychological comfort is worth $50.
I bought enough to last until I’m 105 split between here and Mom’s freezer. :lol: I think I’m good. I noticed the gallon VG is sold out at heartland but I’ve still got three full gallons. If the VG was in stock I probably would’ve ordered another liter of nic with more VG.

Huge thunder boomers and lots of rain here. Cat is all scared and snuggled up to me. :wub:

Yeah, there might be some in "the usual places." We're not in any of those ;)

And, at least here in the south end of the Sound it started slow, so maybe it had a chance to soak in a bit and soften the hard pan...
I hope so....exactly why we tend to suffer from floods....just runs straight off because the ground is so hard baked. Hoping for a problem free couple of days. Always live on high ground away from any water courses is what i've always done :)

Yup. They call them "flood plains" for a reason. :facepalm: Why permits to build there are issued has always been a mystery to me.

And that was one of the things we (I) looked closely at when we were looking for land. I was still at the hydro then, and took our inundation maps with us. (They show potential flooding from dam failure.) Skipped a couple nice plots due to them being underwater if the dams were vaporized by space aliens. :) Nope, not going to plant there!

I have a question but don’t know exactly how to put it. I’ll try this…….I really like strawberry and raspberry. What would you say are similar fruits? Not really looking for dark fruits.
Similar to strawberry: Fruits Like Strawberries (8 Substitutes That Look and Taste Similar)

Similar to raspberry: Fruits Like Raspberries (10 Fruits That Look and Taste Similar)

Looking at the "similar's" on those pages, there aren't many of those types of flavor concentrates at BCF.

From the linked strawberry page, BCF has these: FA Mangosteen, VT Apollo Feijoa, WF Soursop, FLV Soursop and WF Yangmei Berry. I don't have the last 5, but now I am curious about those.

From the linked raspberry page, only the various Blackberry concentrates.

Note: If you scroll down on either of the strawberry/raspberry pages you will see more fruits that are similar to other fruits. That website is a good resource. :)

Seriously though it's kind of scary when you look into reinforced concrete engineering as it ages....

    I'd already favorited Crunch My Custard but that's it. I'll be using it for ideas for my Rhubarb Fool idea but may make it straight with some subs too.

    From the Elr notes, people seem to think the DV flavor is Inw rhubarb with a custard added.

    I've had mine for a few weeks. It is a really nice mod. Fires fast. Very comfy in hand. Very well built, CNC'ed from aluminum. It's one of my favorite SbS's.

    I’m going to shoot some pictures for the review and get it set up later.

    It works nicely in TC SS mode too. I've been running mine in TC and wattage modes. Is it DNA quality TC, no, but it's decent and works well. The TC is better than any of the Eleaf mods with their default firmware (before installing Arctic Fox on them).

    I added VT Apollo Feijoa, WF Soursop and WF Yangmei Berry to my BCF list. I thought I had a soursop, but don't.

    A couple other ones that interested me, and bought in my last BCF order, are VT Paw Paw and and VT Honey Pomelo. Still need to test those with one of my bases.

    It's $44.18 at SM. Vapefly Brunhilde SBS 100W Box Mod VW/TC

    About a week ago they had it for around $36. Give it a week, or a day, and it'll probably be at a lower price again. They've had it listed in the "24hrs" section pretty much since it's been in-stock.
    I'm not real fond of Sourcemore's shipping prices but I went ahead and ordered it. My Brunhilde shipped from ft and I need something to put the dang thing on. I'll just pay it back when I get my rent. I'm done with mods and tanks. Maybe some flavors.

    I think I have the soursop also but maybe not. I'll have to look. I have the VT Paw paw. I liked it but haven't put it in a mix yet. Happens with too many flavors.

    I've used FA Mangosteen a good amount and it is not like a strawberry. Although...
    One description I saw of mangosteen's flavor was like peach mixed with strawberry and some other third thing you can't place.
    I do sometimes get the peach with a hint of strawberry thing from it, but mostly my palette just says "exotic tropical fruit".

    The Brunhilde MTL RTA looks pretty sharp on the Brunhilde SbS.

    I do like that the Brunhilde SbS can take any of my 18650, 20700 or 21700 batteries.

    IIRC from when I measured the Brunhilde RTA that it's only like 4mm-5mm taller than a Dvarw with the 6ml tank section.
