The Final Count Down -- Are You Ready?

[Train2]

Ah - no that's a V2 which appears NOTHING like the V1.
The V1 used to be on FTech, but looks out of stock in all the colors...

They seem discontinued, and the only place I found them, I've never heard of...wisevice out of Texas?
I do still think it's a bargain, and worth having one!

I found this, is it the one you’re talking about?

I haven't taken the time to learn mixing my own juices. Other than that I can buy a bunch of sh stuff before the new regs kick in.

It's much easier than you'd think. Go here and read up. The DIY forum members will be glad to answer any questions you have.

DIY E-Liquid

I've always loved bright flashlights. That began in Boy Scouts. There's nothing like having the brightest flashlight in the crowd! I don't spend the big bucks, but I have about ten around the house in strategic locations. We lose power for an hour or so several times a year, maybe longer when a storm hits and trees go down.

My favorites right now are the Cree T6 LED lights from Amazon. They are Chinese made, but three of them for $20 is a deal, so I bought 2 packs. They are well made and use a single 18650 or 21700 cell. I can't see myself paying over $200 for some of the Streamlight models. These are only 800 lumens but they can light up the backyard with a wide swath of bright white light for 150' or more and they adjust focus from wide to narrow. They are great lights for keeping in each area of the house for power failures and small enough to slide into a pocket. I haven't had one fail yet.

I purchased four (they come in two-packs) Gearlight flashlights off Amazon for $10 per pack. I bought them because they take 18650's. Perfect for us vapers because we can use our batts for both. I find age kills my batteries more than over-cycling so it works out good. I hate using standard alkaline batteries. Expensive and they leave a larger waste stream. So flashlight talk is not completely off topic.

Mine is buried someplace. Don't know if it's in my bone box or tool box but she's buried someplace. Someone listed the sizes in an earlier post. Check that out. They also listed the blind die which can be used for the 510 in mods.

What is your final nic concentration?

I vape 6mg and use around 5ml a day "roughly"

Then a liter of 100 mg/ml nic base will last you eight years, "roughly". I suggest you buy it in (or rebottle into) bottles no bigger than 120 ml.

Like so many other things in the vape world, those were "inspired" by the work of one of our own members.
BF Mods by Custom-Classic

I have "a few" of the originals, which are very much lifetime mods, with solid silver contacts, american-made stainless steel 510 connectors, etc. Not sure about the "copies", but the price certainly was attractive, so It's kinda hard to go wrong.

I just ran out of the 500 ml of 100mg/ml base, ordered it almost exactly 3 years ago. So it's easy for me....1 liter = 6 years. (and if I taper off, even more).

Good point about bottle size.

P.S.
Hi Fran.

Nice thread Rossum.

 

[badinfluence357]

I doubt they're going to be able to stop the flow from china like someone mentioned in a earlier post.. Even if they catch a package here and there I think most will get through....

I was about to sale my Mcr 101 mech mods, Rocket science mods hubris, My no smoker orion, and a few other og mech mods that will probably last a life time. I think Im going to hold on to them...Im not aa diy mixer and the first time I tried the juice taste like ....z!!

I did collect plenty mod parts over the years that I can probably make a fist pump out of power bank and solder together a mosfet circuit. No way in the world I want to revert back to smoking, as we all know thats what "they" want. And If I do it means "they" won!

Yes, indeed. It is all re-bottled

Hiya, Atty

I resisted posting that all the way through this thread but everytime the thread title came up, in my head...

dah dah daaah dah, da da dah dah daah......

We're heading for Venus (Venus)
And still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us (seen us)
And welcome us all, yeah

Venus/seen us, sick rhymes bro.


Back on topic: Nicotine, thats all I am wondering about.

 

[AttyPops]

Y'all realize that you won't have to go back to smoking....you'll be limited to BT systems and expensive pods. Or gum/patches/lozenges.

I don't trust BT juice though.

Hi Fran.

Nice thread Rossum.

I ran out TOO!

Last ordered nic back in 2015, along with PG and VG and my flavors, ran out of Nic last month loads of PG, VG RY4 Double and Menthol on hand - ordered 120 ml of Nic from another vendor to try out. Found out after making a few calls all the vendors are now using plastic wasn't the case back in 2015. Let me figure this all out, I plan to live to 120 at least.

@Rossum had a very good suggestion few post back. Order when the weather cools down a bit.

If I did my math correctly, you can calculate your nic supply needs using the formula below. It’s based on using a single 1 liter bottle of 100 mg/ml nic solution. It calculates in monthly figures because it is easier for us to guess our monthly usage than any other time period.

1000/[e-liquid/mo. x (nic concentrate/100)]

Example: if you vape 100 mls of e-liquid per month at 15mgs/ml nic content. Then a single 1 liter bottle of nic solution will last you,

1000/[100 x (15/100)]
= 1000/[100 x .15]
= 1000/15
= 66-2/3rds months (5.55 years)

Sure, but for most people, clicking this link is easier.

Agree. Living in a Juul world sounds hellish to me.

Good. Figured there was a calculator somewhere but for some of us it’s easier to pop a couple numbers in a formula than it is to dig up a link.

Unacceptable.

Perhaps add the link to the OP for easy reference??
