Count me as the second guinea pig. They have Propaganda on sale as well. Couldn’t resist so ordered some of both. The Prohibition stuff is very well priced, and The Hype Strawberry a la Mode is also excellent. I can sometimes find that for $15, but $12.99 is about the best I’ve ever had. I wish the shipping was a few bucks less, but it’s more than offset by the discount price.

I hope we didn’t empty them out before anyone else gets a shot.

I'm finding quite a few of these complaints with this company looking at the company reviews. When you receive your juice check that it wasn't relabeled. I copied these 2 responses from BBB and reviews of them. There are more.



Buyer Beware site/business. I ordered - I received my order - the 4 bottles of juice are expired. I contacted the company - said they would have to investigate and I've not heard from them again. Look on their FB or IG account... they've kinda disappeared. I read what others had left on their pages, came to the google reviews and had hopes, even though red flags were up... I should have listened to the red flags.

I had ordered two 100ML bottles of eliquid from their online store. Upon receiving them two days later, i noticed they both had been relabeled. My curiosity made me peel the outermost label back, and i see the expiration date has since passed on the liquid. It says 1-2019. I contactes them via email and she said they would send me out new bottles. This was on Monday. Now they will not even respond to my emails. I will not be taken a fool of and injest expired eliquid. Customer service is terrible and shame on then for selling expired liquids without a disclaimer!

I ended up mixing vanilla, vanilla pudding, cookie, and Graham cracker. It's not Ridin' Shotgun, but a "close enough" eliquid.

That sound really good.

Not a peep. Hope she’s okay.

I vape my juice as long as it tastes good, some of them have been 4-5 years old. No problem. Expiration dates are only a guess at best, so that wouldn’t concern me at all.

The relabeling would bother me though.

And not responding to emails is a deal breaker.

evening shiniyes

so [again] i've ordered the MD rta to be my MTL replacing the z coils

i've ordered two spools of wire
Kanthal A1, 28 AWG
KA1 fused clapton), 32*2/38 AWG

my favourite Zcoil was the 1.6ohm
flavourwise the zlide is much weaker than my older pod, but subtle as it was, it;s a terrific vape.

i am considering getting something flat instead of one these, say
0.1mm*0.5mm flat size $2.21 Authentic MKWS Kanthal A1 Ribbon Heating Wire - 0.1mm*0.5mm flat size / 30ft (10m) at FastTech - Free Shipping
there's a .4mm as well among the MKWS

i do have these already $1.23 Thunderhead Creations Kanthal A1 Pre-Coiled Wire for RBA (10-Pack) - 26 AWG / 0.4mm dia. / 0.8ohm at FastTech - Free Shipping
to which i think i can add wraps if i need the resistance a bit higher so i already have a round wire to try out on MD

what i don't know is whether
the fact that a wire is flat limits the amount of possible wraps?
getting flat for MTL makes a difference?
there's limitations on the coiler/jig (say: the CM4 vs the one i've asking abt: FastTech - Gadgets and Electronics

i am also wondering, if i don't get the flat if i should rather get a 30AWG isntead of the 28 or the clapton above

essentially dont' know what to get given the variables of number of possible wraps and possible ID...

also if the flats are diff to coil

cheerio

The flat wire in that size is a nightmare to coil. It is literally like coiling with hair ribbon. Your other wires you mentioned will be perfect.

Just remember the resistance of the coil doesn't matter. You are using a regulated mod. A 1.6ohm Z-coil for a drop-in tank, is a completely different thing in a MTL rebuildable rta.

So don't stress about having to have a coil at a certain resistance - just get wire you can vape at lower wattages. And everything you mentioned above will do that - including the 26ga kanthal.

If you want to try flat wire, it will probably suit your DL RTAs more:

Has anyone heard from Chanel today?

Not since last night on the after hours shiny thread. But as she had her surgery today, she might've been at her daughter's last night. I've been sending her subliminal 'kick cancers ....' messages all day and I know you guys have been too. It's officially known as Long Distance Shiny Healing

 

[Fredman1]

Yep I see trying times ahead for the Shiny thread. All things vape has ground to a halt in China. I have faith that we will survive as this chatter boxes has lots of other things to talk about

I just want my stuff from ft and sourcemore, and I want it, now, now, now!!!!

 

[Rob B.]

My full Dead Rabbit family with new Revenant and dr sq rda. Evdilo with an Ocula. Think I’m settled on what atty’s match best with my mods. I have officially broken into the world of squonking. Oh, oh! Mikey likes it.

 

[AngeNZ]

Mine won’t turn, so I’m guessing the nut is tight enough?

I adjusted my Armageddon by loosening the bottom nut first, then adjusted the top nut. Until the atty was flush.

The boys will explain the mechanics better than me, as they know their nuts

Yep that's me. Can't leave a nut alone...
The thin one on the top, is the locknut. That needs to be loosened first and tightened last. The bottom one is the adjuster.

 

[Ricky Vapes]

Got some vape mail today

Never had a mech mod with a button like this. It’s pretty cool though
