How do you like the unflavored? I seem to have developed a lot of sensitivities to flavorings and might have to go this route.

I've been vaping unflavored for the past three years. I really like it. It took me a couple of days to get used to it, but then I found, like others, that unflavored actually has a flavor of its own. Bonus, it's really easy to mix :)

That's not good. Unflavoured seems to be getting quite popular. I never liked the taste of nicotine so it's not for me but a friend sucks sugar free lollies in the flavour of choice while vaping unflavoured. It's a trick I suggest to newbies looking for flavour groups they might like. The taste of sugar free lollies are very close to Eliquid recipes and is a good way of getting variety without spending a lot on Eliquid.

Thanks for the idea...much appreciated. I am going to try that along with taking my nic way down and then trying zero mg, too. The only flavor that is not irritating my lungs at this point is a chocolate mint.

Stick to sugar free. (And no I did not suggest chocolate :p ) No point in the extra calories

With having my car biting the dust it's going to be even more time before I get a rev 4. If they even still make them then.
oh dang hun, sorry to hear that. Car trouble sucks. Specially when it kills the car!

Well, after a bit of procrastination, looking around, listening to what DPLongo22 and others have said, deciding 'naah, redeciding, rolling dice and whatnot....

A nice little Rev 3.a Dober will be on the way to me (with an extra delrin tank). 4 black aw 16340s are on the way as well.

Sheesh, I've spent more than a thousand bucks on this leg of the hobby (not counting mechs--just BBs and RBAs to go with it). Good thing it's been a long while since I've smoked. I'm still spending less than I would on cigarettes. But if DD keeps going.... maybe I'll have to break my no-classies attitude (I tend to give stuff away I don't use anymore).

But, on the bright side, I've got a Rat Black, a Kürbis (both Rev 4), and now the Dober on the way. That should keep me vaping through the Vapocalypse (if it gets as bad as some think). And I've got liters of pg/vg stashed away as well.

BAAAD influence, me. Sorry, aarhus. ;)

I hope YOU like it TOO.

Flavorless is OK by me (but I still prefer flavored). Mine if from MFS (I don't know if that matters). So is my PG & VG, which I mix in myself.

On the 2.1 ohm BVC's I sit at about 12 watts...

10 Watts usually for "Me" . . . :facepalm:


Stick to sugar free.

Cough * Cough * Diabetes, "E-Liquids", and Vaping? *Cough * Cough​

And then there were none (the last of the 25's just went buh-bye).

Insulin or lack of is such an interesting topic, probably not for here, but I test my BG levels daily (multiple times) and my intolerance is to quite specific things. Smoking actually helped control my wild fluctuations. When it comes to Artificial sweeteners, they are not created equal and their effects on me and so I use stevia when I need to, no fructose (last apple was as a child) and my eliquids are as sweetener free as I can make them.

Nope not yet and I hope never, just take 2 pills for Type 2 diabetes 2 x's a day. . . Also I do not do daily testing - only A1c Blood work every 3 months . . . BTW: Recently got "My" number -which usually was between 6 - 7 for the past 12 years, all the way down to 5.9 recently by watching what I ingest (including "E-Liquids") all that time . . . :D

Smoking actually helped control my wild fluctuations.

Although many people do not believe "Me" - Same thing happens when I am having an "Asthma"/"Allergy" attack and cannot breath well - I can actually catch "My" Breath again . . . :facepalm:

my eliquids are as sweetener free as I can make them.

Really wish I could make sure of that myself, however since I do not DIY "E-Liquids" I have to rely on the vendor to make sure there is none to very little in the "E-Liquid" they send "Me" . . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

So after a couple days with the rev3 here, I've decided flavor isn't as good as the KF5 and not as good as say the Kabuki with the same coils - but I'd say on par with the regular Nautilus Mini. So in other words, still pretty good. We'll see if flavor improves more with the Regular BVC coils.

**This isn't meant to sound like a bad review - but a good one! I LOVE the form factor and everything that comes with it. And I'm HOOKED. lol.

I've decided for vapeocolypse, I definitely want two Billets. I'll probably snag another rev 4 and then sell the rev3 in a few weeks or something. I could use a black. :)

HoH has done it again!
Well, they did this quite a while ago, but I just discovered it tonight...
Well, I RE-discovered it tonight.
Ok enough blabbering. Pic time!

The tip that came with my Kabuki aka Gertrude (I think?) looks pretty rad on Jazz (my Piebald). Or at least I think so!
And the mouth feel combined with this set up feels really nice!

People don't believe me either. As a teenager I really suffered from asthma, but loved track & field. Not a good combination. My doc at the time, a chain-smoking polio survivor with leg-braces who terrified me (but was one of the best doctors I've ever experienced), asked me whether I smoked. I 'fessed up reluctantly, and then she said (and I still remember this as if it was yesterday, and not in the seventies): "You need to control your breathing. If you can learn to smoke a cigarette up to and during an attack, without coughing, the attack will stop."

She was right. It really worked. While everyone else with asthma I knew were using Ventoline inhalers, I just had a pack of cigs. Really taught me breath control, that did.

I'm not sure if I remember this right......is the reason you don't DIY cuz you don't know of a flavor that tastes like a menthol cig or is that the reason you haven't totally stopped smokin? Cuz I can show you how to DIY stupid simple and it would save you a ton of money, and use a bare minimum of "tools"
