I really don’t like mods that are boxy or square looking. They just don’t look comfortable to hold. Maybe they are but I still prefer some curves lol!
That's how I like my women, too. ;)

I've always kept my VG in the fridge though I've been told I don't have to which is a good thing. My PG just stays room temp. Never had a problem with it.

The DIY thread has lots of info on good by and pg. I’ve recently being buying it from
Whoever has it the cheapest. Most of the DIY shops sell both. It should be certified usda and some prefer kosher. So wherever you go like Bull City or EciggExpress checkout their prices. I go through way more VG than PG since I mix at max VG now. I use to mix 60/40 (VG/PG) then 70/30 but I like the thicker mouthfeel and denser vape of max VG. Even amazon carries it but it’s more expensive.

It's too bad that most vapers will never know the delight of them. They'll continue using RDA's to taste their ejuice.


Fasttech has a whole slew of flashlights. On their home page is a categories menu. Click on flashlights. When it shows you all of them, there will be a filter menu that lets you choose the battery form factor. 45 models of 18350 flashlights, one model of 18500, and 1,995 listings for 18650 flashlights.

I’ve actually received a free flashlight from one of the battery stores. Nice little unit too.

Yeah, I've been picking up a clone here or there, kinda wish there was an atty of the month club, or better yet, a 36 of the best attys sampler.

I have about 35 RDAs and about half are clones that vape just great to me. Most were under $10 bucks from Fasttech. I’ll buy originals that are $30 to $35 dollars but not paying $60 - $100 or more on an rda especially since lately most seem pretty similar.

The one thing I've always refused to buy is a mech mod. Nope, you can't change my mind. I used to love regulated tube mods and it was a while before I got my first box mod. Now all my tube mods sit in boxes because I prefer my box mods. I do get them out once in a year to make sure they all still work well.

The 3 I bought are semi regulated. With my brain fog I could easily see something go wrong on my part. I feel
Somewhat more st ease with the semi regulasted like the Luna squonkers and Chutula(spelling?). They have small chips that’s connect to the fire button and offer basic safety features. Although I remember that these things are built en mass in China so that brings me some anxiety. Also I had a venting “issue” with a regulated pen mod that auto fired after getting juice in it ((I believe so anyways). The auto off after 20 seconds failed. It was really s scary situation and I’m just glad I was home when it happened.

Stocking is somewhat age-related. I'm 71 and would need to stock a lot less than someone 10-20 years younger.

57 here but with all my health issues who knows how long I’ll be living in my own home.

I asked Carolina Extracts if I could pick up my nic solution. No go. They don't do counter sales. Have to order it online and have it shipped like everyone else. They may as well be located in Turkmenistan.
It's like RTD batteries for me. 40 minutes away and the shipping takes 5 days. I think it goes to NY first.:lol:

    Question about those LiFeP04 18650s: They would need to be charged to 3.3V maximum, right? So either I'd have to stay right on top of my charger and pull the batteries when they reach, say, 3.2V or get one that let me set the end voltage? (I already have my eye on one of those; this would simply give me the excuse to buy it.)

    Also, am I correct in thinking these would add a layer of safety to using a mech? I mean, all the usual precautions would still need to be taken, but the chemistry is intrinsically less volatile, which would cut down the risks?

    Or get this for added protection in mechanicals.

    Ya the look interested me too. The two box mods I use (an iStick and a Pico) have curves, and the three tube mods I use have some definitive curves to them..

    Hooray! I stocked up on a liter of high-strength nic.
    10mL/day, 300mL/mo, 3.6L/yr, @ 5% => 180mL nic/yr => 5.5 years

    Now I need to find some good glass bottles to hold it all.

    I wonder if Canada is going to follow the example of the EU or the US?

    Lots of places sell
    I guess men can have curves too?

    So true because I’ve seen a lot of them and it ain’t pretty most of the time lol!!

    I got one from Liion Wholesale. 21700, Came with adapters for 18650 and AAAs. That was much appreciated. Of course I love all the freebies... except those stupid fidget spinners. I’ve run out of kids to give them to!

    Same I have two pico squeeze 2s and a few Luna’s. Even the Luna doesn’t have that real boxy look even though it pretty close to looking square.

    I’m also not into all the new mods coming out- especially Starwood’s- where the battery tube is exposed. I keep thinking the manufacture wanted to save money by cutting our some of the stab wood or other materials.

    Of course that doesn’t make any sense. Probably costs more. But either way - no box looking mods or half a mod exposed battery tube for me.

    But that’s the awesome thing about vaping and vape mods- there are so many options for all kinds of preferences.

    The only spinners I get are the ones from Asmodus. They usually include a plastic draw string bag but it’s an odd setup with the cables. Can’t tell if they couldn’t decide between regular bags or backpacks lol!! My roommate loves them so I just give them to her.
