We'll get ours first. Before FT and VapeNW.
I adore VapeNW. I only wish there were another site with similar layout and interface. No flash on it, simple and effective to browse. Decent prices. Never been burnt yet. They dont hype as much as other sites, or in an obxious way. Compare the homepage to Vapewild's. Its simplicity that keeps me going to that site. Do you guys have a recommendation for another?

evape.us for nautilus stuff
Sweet Vapes for some stuff
Vape Royalty or VapeNW for most of the rest
Have been drawn to VR several times, recently looking for things and noticed they oddly had it when no one else did, or at that price. Can anyone vouch for Elementvape? They have the Sigelei 150w TC which I need. They're seemingly permanently out of stock everywhere, as if discontinued. Which worries me.

Actually my aromamizer experience so far hasn't been the greatest. I love the way my 'mizer looks and feels but I've yet to get a fantastic vape out of it. The supreme looks like it would address some of my issues though. Generally speaking, aromamizer v1 aside, this new generation of velocity deck rdtas are fantastic. I've shelved all of my high end authentics in favor of the mutant, the griffin, and the vcmt. I'm really looking forward to the supreme and the boreas, which Roxy is helping develop.
See my post inspired by the v1. Disappointment. I come from velocity clones, and the Aromamizer v1 had no flavor. Griffin looks amazing and Mutant as well. But now theres a 25mm Griffin, not sure if I will buy the original, having an Rx200, that Griffin 25 looks yum.
Well, they changed the airflow holes, this will cause preorder shipments to be pushed back til the 14th. Good and bad news I guess..View attachment 537637 View attachment 537638

If you're talking about this picture of my V1, the answer to your question would be Yes, you can torch it for color. It looks as though you can completely strip the Supreme down to parts and seals. I torched the V1 with a butane torch instead of propane, giving me more control on the color I wanted to achieve. Simple process, just takes a little bit of patience.



I ordered a black version of the Supreme on the 1st, about 30 minutes after they came up for pre-order on the Steam Crave site. This is the first thing I've ever pre-ordered, and the first thing I've bought without extensive research by reading multiple reviews. I have enough faith in Steam Crave and their level of customer service to feel safe in being one of the first 1000 to receive and use their product. Looking at the tank, you can see that they've listened to the V1 users and gave us everything we've asked for...top fill, ability to direct air to coils, AFC ring made of metal, etc. I hear they will begin shipping around the 10th of March. I'm really excited about this tank.
Drip. Tip. What tip is that, dear god its sexy. Link?

Funny, my aromamizer is giving me the perfect vape right now. maybe its the fused claptons or rayon wicking. 80 watts chain vaping like it aint no thang

Cannot build a Clapton yet, no drill. Refuse to buy premade wire. I have a need to learn, if I can, I will. I can twist 26g by hand, was the best I'd gotten out of the v1, but still lacking. Anything above 40w is burntown. Funny, can comfortably get an rda to 120-200 without burns. Aromamizer was hell, even with proper wick. Banking on Griffin or Griffin 25. I love my rdas. But want a tank. Like wise. I love my regs, but am enjoying leaning into mechs once in a while.

You can always make a clapton jig like I did. I have two drills but prefer the greater control of hand crank wrapping.

H.. How? For someone without woodworking knowledge, how difficult would something like that be to create ?

I am definitely no carpenter. I took four pieces of wood (1/4 inch project wood from Home Depot). I cut the four pieces and used gorilla wood glue and small nails to knock it together. On one end I used a small eye hook to hold a fishing ball bearing swivel to attach one end of the core wire. The other end I drilled a hole directly across from the eye hook and inserted the top chimney piece from an old Kanger Evod coil as a guide for the crank. The "crank" is simply a large paperclip bent into shape. I use two small Dewalt wood clamps and a wood kabob stick in between to hold the outer wire spool.

I straighten a length of core wire and attach to the paperclip and swivel. I attach the outer wire to the swivel end then crank as slow or fast as I want as I pinch the outer wire between my thumb and index finger very close to the core wire. Takes me about 15 minutes to crank out 12 inches of clapton wire.

I have to make some more clapton wire tonight, I'll post some close up pics later if you're interested. Actually I probably should make a separate thread for my jig in the wick and wire sub-forum. I'll post a link here if I decide to do it.
