true. the recipe maybe? the toe...probably not best described here. shiny it ain't. well it is sort of but not in a shinyitis sort of a way :?:
Surprisingly I do not like peanut butter vapes. Could probably come up with a recipe if I knew what brands and flavors you have. @Necrospecter loves PB and cheesecake and @FranC is the cheesecake queen. Maybe they have a good starting point for you.

Reviewers do have an option--create their own website, use the YT SDK and publish themselves.
I've seen multiple content creators doing a similar thing with their donation economy - going away from patreon and similar sites to create their own personal donation/funding site.

With youtube there's some problems with that though - if you were monetized you won't get that kind of revenue unless you're actively seeking out sponsors or ads (or pay to become part of an "ad selling ring"), getting money would mean potentially a whole lot more work.
People will be less likely to find you, there's no smartphone app or any kind of online infrastructure for your site. I know I only "found" some reviewers through YT suggestions. Interested smokers would have less comfortable access to types of content that make a successful switch somewhat easier.

A better option would be a youtube-like site for vaping where all vape content creators unite, that's a lot harder to achieve though. Still preferable to a completely splintered community.

So Vapehapoy finally replied to my bottle issue, told me basically to just use without the insulator, sure to power down the device.

Done with Vapehappy now
I wouldn't deal with the vendor either. I'd sure post my experience all over the place tho.

Apparently, I value my life more as I age (or, perhaps, comprehend my own mortality.)

NO ONE thought I was going to quit smoking successfully, really, to undergo "self-care" I still have to give myself a stern talking to, LOL. The talk usually goes, "Anna, there are people in this world that care about you, and will be undergoing what YOU go through, so if you can't value yourself enough, well, try to be the best YOU you can be, for the sake of OTHERS."

LOL, I happily plough through whatever paperwork was needed for OTHER people, it was not a problem.

If I have to do it for me? It's usually right under the wire, and poorly done.

If anyone understands this self care business let me know. Although I am still going to call vaping a HUGE self-care win.

Everyone I told had the same response. "You did? Really? Honest?" LOL.

Close but not exactly. It doesn't have a dedicated UI for video uploading or handles any form of payments.

What I mean is a "VapeTube", a site dedicated to video vape content providing everything necessary to potentially make a living off of it if you're popular and dedicated enough. A simple forum is miles away from that.

Would be great, seems start up would be expensive and require sponsors. You would definitely need a group rather than an individual. If you could lure some of the more popular reviewers over and provide a forum as well I would certainly become a supporting member.

So, am I wrong in believing "use it without the insulator" is bad advice?
It doesn't sound like a good idea but then electricity isn't something I really get. I ask those questions directly to posters I've come to trust. I don't mind coming across as an idiot as long as I know I'm being a safe idiot.:blush:

If you're not afraid of Sudden Tremendous battery Discharges and you think the box can handle it... still not advisable.

Wait, what are we talking about again? I think I missed it, what's the "bottle issue"?

Thanks for the response. I'd like to be sure before I share this with my friends and online.
I bought something that turned out to be defective, and your resolution is to use it in what could potentially be an unsafe manner?

Just want to be sure I'm not misquoting you. I of course will use the original reply as to avoid confusion.
"We've actually been using the Vandy Vape bottles that way without the insulator. No leakage and better flow. Just as precaution, we make sure to power down the mod when refiling or we make sure that we don't fire it with the bottle connected. "

I truely want to pass this advice along as I'm sure it's sound and safe, but I'd like to credit Vapehappy.

Sincerly,



What do you guys think?
