Glad you are enjoying the juice. Great company. Make sure you sign up for the newsletter, they run good sales pretty often.

I'm already impressed with their customer service and get their newsletters. Might try some of their other juices as well.

Not into DIY... yet but I have some nic in the freezer just in case.

Honest thoughts on the Asmodus Colossal... I “need” a replacement pocket/stealth 18650 battery mod. Don’t want another Pico, too impatient to work vaporesso’s menu, use a Sinuous P80 on the boat (no tears if I drop it into the marsh). Current at home mods are sx mini and steampunk nano. Mod must be black... hubs can’t tell the difference between a pico and sx if they’re the same color. Caught plenty guff for my flashy, sexy silver steampunk, but it was worth it!

From what I understand, Nic salts are smoother. They are also newer, as in the last 6 months is the first time I've heard of them so for a very long while, regular nicotine was the only option. Either way, with DIY it's more important to worry about knowing how to hit your nic target than it is the actual form of nic. You don't want to miscalculate and over do it. Use an ejuice calculator. and double check your measurements.
So I guess nic salts are kinda the way to go for me. 6% juice makes me hack After two hits while I can do 50mg nic salt all day. I also heard nic salt has a longer shelf life. I wanted to double check before I started to invest in diy gear.

Well, it's good you discovered your preference. I DIY with nic salts only and I find them to have great longevity. I have quite a bit of it, stored in the large freezer. The rest of my nic supplies do go in a small "dedicated to me" fridge, and it seems to make my life much easier. Picked it up for $20 at a Church rummage sale, to chill my Diet Pepsi, but I have lots of room in there for the rest of my vaping DIY stuff... Which is swelling larger (obviously) as I proceed. I hope I don't wind up having to buy a bigger fridge, but all seems well so far. Fortunately, flavors don't take up a ton or room....

I use the same percentage nic salts as I would freebase nic. I only use salts for no th. I cannot speak to shelf life as mine doesn't last long. I mix 8mg for myself and 15mg for a friend. My last 240ml salts held up very well in the freezer over several months and my long steep juices are smooth and tasty, so no ageing issues have popped up for me.

My Ni80 26ga fused claptons arrived with the spools of Ni80 wire, night and day difference in the Pulse BF over the 22ga KA1. Now for Big Al to release his iSwitch and my Pulse BF will be converted over to a Mosfet device.

Building a DNA 75C squonker today. I'll post pics later, glad to be finally putting a spare 3D printed case to use. It was bothering me sitting there all empty and such. ;)
Do post. I've toyed with getting an Alleader or whatever 80w and gutting it. RumorRhas it a DNA 75 will fit, then the Pulse regulated was announced .

Had a chance to get a Robo C2 for about $100 today but passed. Really don't have room for it.

I dunno...
Reminds me of the Dovpo Armour...
Only sharper and just nope.
Depends on pricing. If it's 50 or under, might be worthy of more investigation. Otherwise, I'd buy a vfeng squonk first.
Just give me the money if you'd buy the Vfeng. We will both be happier...

It looks like what the minikin mini should have been. There are a few video reviews online.

I wish I had room for a large freezer; I am in an 1100sq/ft apartment. Best I can hope for are a mini fridge and mini freezer side by side. I am a bit concerned about power usage too. I am debating on getting a combo that would severely limit stockpiling or a dedicated freezer. I do tend to have more room in the fridge, right now I have half a shelf dedicated for long term juice storage.

Thank you... wonder how they hold up in the long run??? I have two al85’s I got both for around $60 to put in the “borrow” drawer ( to keep the big kids out of MY stuff). I now understand the Smok haters. Can’t read an atty correctly. Ever. Drives me crazy

I think I figured it out, start with a combo, then if I want to drive head first into DIY, I have the extra funds, or the laws start looking bleaker in Texas, stockpile and get a dedicated freezer. I am guessing I can get 450ml in a basic combo fridge/ freezer...

We bought one for the camp from Lowe’s. Freezer on top, size is about 3 ice cream cartons. Built an open back cabinet with door front to disguise it and use it as a side table. After about 8 months use, can’t see much difference in the power bill. We’re space poor there, so it had to go in the den

I havent owned a smok.since the plastic plug in my magneto's threads gave out causing the spring to push the magnets on the firing button together to engage and vent a battery. Only time I have ever vented one it was pretty scary. I have had tanks of theirs but never a mod. My Asmodus Klone was the most reliable mechanical I ever owned. Used it for years and never a single issue. Buttery smooth threads too. Havent heard that in a while...

I kinda wish Asmodus would bring back their old logo.
