i have had to use the old tool to unscrew the base/deck... but that's not just gear, all my rta's done that.
i remember this patterned rubber pad thingie some reviewer recommended that might come handy if i only knew what it's called or where to find one . i've tried the rubberband trick a couple times, as usual worked the first time.

I'm not sure but could it be something like this?

A rubber glove will work too. I have used that method ;)

This is the best tool I know of for unscrewing jammed attys - including glass. Got me out of lots of potential messes

Make sure you buy 2. One holds the base, the other twists the stuck barrel etc

I’ve never seen a dog take a loss so hard. She loved Rudy. She really did. All my other dogs got along, seemed to care for one another, but nothing like this. She’s clingy, won’t eat, cries in her sleep.

Had to pick up his ashes from the vet today. That was every bit as hard as picking up my husband’s.

Neither of us are ready for another dog yet.
I am familiar with the pain of losing a furry friend. I grieve for a long time. They are family members and life at home is different when one leaves. For us and for their other furry fam members.
My thoughts are with you and Georgia. I hope you find peace and sunshine soon. I am glad you checked in.

I have a few DBs let’s say 5 :lol:
They are very pup (and Melissa) proof!!
5 ??? Wow. :D Well... ya can't hold a great mod down to just 1. I'll wait for 4 July sales and pickup another. There aren't many mods in this price range using such high quality wiring and components.

My one and only DB was a version 2.1. First ever mod to die on me - within a week of first use. Apparently they had a few qc issues and sorted them out. I loved the feel and design. Might get a V3

Now that you are align about flavours I was mean to ask you where do you get them. As said above I need to fix that bad juice which allegedly strawberry (it's very weak to no taste) do you think a bit of concentrate might fix it and if so strawberry or something else? In real life I prefer raspberries over strawberry o_O. Any help from anyone will be appreciated :)
Some people have problems tasting strawberry in juices. And some don't get on with s-berry's from specific flavor houses. Don't know if that's your case here or with all s-berry juice. You are on the right track, a tiny bit of raspberry will enhance the strawberry flavor. Or watermelon. But be careful cause raspberry's are strong and will take over fast. I would start with a single drop.

If you really like a strawberry vape I would suggest getting both FA Strawberry and FA Juicy Strawberry. The former gives you the overall strawberry and the latter is more of the ripe sweet meaty berry. Together they're very realistic.

IMO the most realistic raspberries are INW Raspberry WG and FA Raspberry. Both are STRONG so go light. I've used them from a single drop up to 0.5%.

I'm not at all sure where to suggest flavors for NZ or OZ. Chef's Flavours in the UK is a great place, I buy from them as do many others here. Bull City Flavors in the US is another one. IDK for sure but there are probably stores in NZ for you to order from. @AngeNZ, @Pigs and @Fredman1 would know best. :D

You probably already saw the updated features for the v3. But just in case...

I held off on getting the v2 just because of the issues. Haven't had any problems with my year old v3 and it's in regular rotation. :thumbs:

I have never found one Strawberry alone that fits the bill. as SMT says you need a combo of them. Shisha Strwbrry from INawera with Sweet Strawberry from Cap are my fav two to mix.

I have a 'Son of a buscuit eater' steeping so have not tried it yet. Reading the reviews it appears that they used to be made by another company and a few veteran vapers have talked about the TPD laws and a few ingrediants had to be changed but if it tastes this good now I would have loved to have tried the originals.
