Still smoking support and chat thread

[ShariR]

I have had the White Peach ala Zoe also. It was one of the only fruity vapes I enjoyed. That was from ECBlend - will have to go look it up. If I remember right it did not taste like menthol or real minty, just a hint, so maybe the stuff called cool. Someone else will know better. It was good though.

mine did not have any mint or menthol but it can be added i just made it sweeter and added a shot of vanilla which was recommended in the reviews

OK gonna try to reply for everyone that commented at one shot so here we go!

cigarette in one and pv in the other to represent the switch?

LOVE it!!!! Thx for doing that for us.
Should he/she be holding a pv in each hand?
Luv it as is.

First off thanks for the compliments, I love the idea of an analog in one hand and a PV in the other; as well as the coil wrapping idea so I will see if I can get those going too.

the character shud be blood shot eyed trying to do a coil with a pv in front of him lol

I actually tossed a version similar to that, I'll wrap it up and post it shortly for you.

I like it. Who is the 'We' in the banner? Can you slide in a link to this thread? Or is that not your intention? I do like the banner. It makes a statement.

Shari, the "we" in question are the people in this group who willingly give up their time and experience to help others get over the hump even when they are falling off the wagon. I sort of had a RadioShack vibe going, lol.

The link would be great to do, I'm just not real familiar with ECF's linking structure.

LOL! Don't forget the spilled juice next to the ashtray off to the side. I think bags under the eyes would work too. Gotta have a computer monitor in there somewhere, darkened, working by the dim light of the computer. A few cobwebs? I'm sure there's something else has been left out.

child just went to sleep after taking some medication for his fever.

i should be mixing some more flavors and building coils while i have the chance.

but.. i cant seem to find the motivation as my tank still is half full and working.

water company shut off our water again without proper nitifications. just now got a letter saying our bill is overdue (never got the bill in the first place..) and water will be shut off today if we dont pay. letter is dated 9 days ago.. so.. girlfriend went to pay water bill before work and of course they cant turn water bck on today, it has to be tomorrow even though we have on file a medical certificate saying water cannot be shut off due to disability and young child (either or is suffecient.. we have both filed) and yet the idiots keep doing it anyway? gotta file another complaint.

still havent heard back from Steak-N-Shake about a complaint i filed over a month ago toher than they recieved it and the national customer service saying they are forwarding my info then a survey of how it was resolved yesterday (uhm.. it isnt resolved). i went and bought milkshakes during happy hour (2-4 am and pm) and whoever rang me up didnt give the half off discount and when i called the person on the phone said it was too late to do anything. so i filed the complaint that i wanted coupons for free shakes since i was cheated out of the money to buy them. its not my fault that your employee did not press the button. its not my fault your system does not autmatically apply the discount based on the time (some bars here already have it set up, but a resturaunt cant?!)

i should rebuild some coils and fix my dripper so i can use my pipe again. but its ALL the way across the house, and my leg is asleep.

also in a flavor rut again. trying to decide if once i make my chocolate mint ice cream flavor if i should try making a small batch with some menthol added how that would taste. or menthol with my watermelon.

have a friend who i gave a ego kit to ask me for some of my watermelon flavor i let him try a long time ago. yeah sure, ill make you abatch, but the last batch i made is kink of harsh.. PERFECT he says. he wants something harsher than his cigarettes to use at first. ok them, here is 30ml of it. just give me back the empty bottle please.

Lol, that's exactly the way I started out and to this day I still won't sell anything.

And yes, I would always start with a small batch (no nicotine if possible). To just taste the flavors themselves, your calculator should alter the blend when you add the nic back in.

OK folks, sorry it took so long to get this up here, it has been a mess of dr's appts lately. Mainly just the routine "getting older" stuff.

Anyway, so far so good on that front, and good news on moving our new house (got an estimate almost 50% lower than our last estimate).

This was my first rough idea for the banner, let me know what you think!!

Excellent banner! Personally, I think it's perfect just as it is.

As far as linking it to direct someone here, though, you may have to talk with one of the ECF mods to see if it can be done.

Edit: Darn! I have the link to the img, but I can't see it.

Hello everyone! Went back to one tank WTA and one tank unleaded today, it's been a pretty crappy day at work. Lesson learned and noted.

Have a fantastic day all. . .

 

[Karen N Daytona]

Good Afternoon! I hope you are all having a great day today!

Nothing new, just working on the FB contest group, If you are on FB and want to be in contests for cool stuff PM me for the group info!

so far the closest ive come is with this recipe

10% bavarian cream * FW
5% juicy peach * capella
2%sweet cream *FW
.2ml vanilla swirl *tpa
2 drops malic acid ( diluted down into 10ml pg)
5 drops sucrolose sweetner * capella sweetner

 

[Karen N Daytona]

LOL I won again, this time a Turtleship Mech mod and juice , this is getting to be a habit! I ordered 6 MG nicotine I want to see how I do at lower level nic and high VG. I am addicted to yet another thing....contests!

you would be surprised I like the Hammer clone, I like the button placement on it. It works well. Lots of vapor! I think the mech mods give off just as much vapor as the VV or VV/VW. Using the same tanks or dripping attys. The only difference I found among all it that the Provari lets you taste the flavor better than any of the others period. Otherwise it's all the same to me

From spinners to Provari or Mech mods I can use any of the and be happy The Innokin products are second to Provari, followed by the mech mods. I might change my mind later but for now and how I use them that is my assessment.

what does the Malic acid do?

 

[JJ1977]

what does the Malic acid do?

similar to lemon juice from the plastic lemon from the store

helps with making the fruit flavors shine

 

[aikanae1]

I'm beginning to think you need to get hired PT at that store and find out what their recipe is. Then quit. LOL! Unless the discounts are too good. Is it good enough to satisfy your craving?

Why don't you just buy the store's eliquid? IMO trying to find flavors to match something I love is really, really hard. I do much better finding new flavors that I like and I think it's because I'm much pickier about something I'm familar with (like coffee). I think it's possible, my hunch is that whoever put together some of the famous custard / tobacco vapes had a severe love and obession with the flavor to get them right. I just think it's a lot harder to meet an imagined expectation.

That does look like a good reciepe. The mix of creams are interesting. I also liked Lox's suggestion of adding magostream... (however that's spelled).

You go girl!!!!!! Wow, another contest win. I was just saying yesterday that you just may convince to get a Facebook account. Don't want one, but geez! You are on a roll. Congratulations. You will soon need a bigger house. lol

Congrats - AGAIN! Geesh, you are a "winner". I had no idea there were contests like that on FB. I kinda wish I'd set up a new page for them and I still may do that. I did a hunt and found a couple more contest boards that I've been sharing with your page. I also discovered I need to set them to "public" which I haven't been doing. Oops. Too many buttons to click and set. I also "unfollow" the store after I like it. Hope that doesn't hurt.

Do you think there's contests for other stuff too? I need a new couch and wouldn't mind a new truck too. Maybe there's a dentist too. LOL!

At some point the vape stores are going to figure out ppl are doing this and come up with something else insteead. Don't advertise it too much or there'll be too much competition.

It never hit the shelves, eh? Well, there ya go. No chance for competition. I'd call or visit the store and start talking to someone, until it feels comfortable and then bring it up. They might just tell you how it was made. That would be the fast track. Sometimes the sport is in the hunt though.

A grandbaby can't do what vaping can - is that what your saying?

You will love it. Most of this board is there. I had a nice chat with Claudia this morning. She started a page for just vape contest and didn't use her real name. I think that's the smart way to do it. Also use a different email / free account set up for just vaping stuff. You have the benefit of hindsight. I may still go in and reorganize stuff around. I haven't even figured out signatures yet and this is easier.

Embrace the Suck!

 

[fpkites]

I'm in on Karen's group, hopefully some of that luck will rub off on me!

Last night, I got a wild hair and wrapped up a couple nano coils and mounted them in my Octopus. Dual coil, wicked dragon-style.

Obscene juice waster, but sure is fun. .6 ohms, so I have to watch the heat on my K100.

 

[Karen N Daytona]

Don't unfollow, just turn off notifications from that page, make another FB page just for contests, its easier
