5c, I was all about Maytag too but ended up going with GE. It was simply an appearance issue. The good news is that both GE and Maytag are back in the U.S.A!!!!! That fact alone made my day.

Great to hear about MV Denrock! Glad they are taking good care of ya.

Bov, Your Granny and I would have gotten along great!!! I opened up my washer once while accidentally using HE laundry soap and thought "How the heck is this cleaning my clothes?" Then I added more soap!!! hahaha

I have a Whirlpool Cabrio. It has the glass top and i can actually see the clothes washing. Looks like something from the future but cleans really well

Well I just went to the laundry room. (My sister does most the clothes washing) and I took a look. The laundry detergent does have HE on it. Her washer is a side loader and it can really fit a lot. It's got a little slide out drawer you put your detergent and fabric softener and bleach in if your doing whites and everything. It's a Kenmore.

The salesman talked me out of the side loader and into a top loader. He said that many people have issues with mold growing in the gasket where water tends to sit on the side loaders.

Honestly, I was just looking for a regular washing machine at the time. This top loader works just like a side loader. It has no agitator so can really fit anything washable in it.

I have noticed lately that most laundry soap has the HE symbol on it. I used to have to look a little harder for it but not any more.

Yeah, we must all be old when the topic of conversation is washing machines lol

Ya I think we need a new topic. This one is getting wore out like an overused wash machine. Anyway I got some new e-liquid today. Top Vapor from MadVapes and I've only tried one flavor so far of the 2. The Watermelon is excellent it tastes a lot like the Jolly rancher watermelon candy. At $10 and some change (Iforget the exact amount) for 50ml at 11mg strength I am really happy. Tomorrow I will probably give the Mad Grapes a try. It smells good. I've given them a few good shakings too and am letting them breathe. I am thinking about trying some DIY. I hear it is really cheap. How much cheaper is it and where would I go for supplies and recipes?

Ps- Oh I forgot to mention my new juice is 80%VG /20%pg and so far I'm not getting any heartburn from it at all and I've been chain vaping all day. My previous juice was IIRC 70PG/30VG and I got heartburn if I chain vaped it. Sometimes I'd even have to go get a small glass of milk for relief.

BR you just described the washer we have too.
Salem We don't have problems with mold but we do have problems with bleach. My daughter uses excessive bleach on her whites and a little stays on and around that rubber so when the next load goes in it gets bleach spots from going through the door. I wipe it all down now before I wash but as soon as this one goes I'm going to see about a top loader.

Holy cow! That is DIRT cheap! I have tried the brand of juice that MV carries years ago and it is not bad.

I am not sure what IIRC is but, many vendors use acetyl pyrazine as an additive and it will give me heart burn as well.

Ooh, I had not thought about that but, I bet that bleach could easily be a problem with them.

 

[salemgold]

Okay DR, DONE with the washer talk!

Wait! One more. 5C, maybe you don't have mold because of the bleach.

 

[Denrock316]

Oh IIRC is if I recall correctly. Other than the occasional heartburn I don't have any other complaints about my e-juice I had from eJuice Monkeys. I also decreased my nic content I went from 18mg to 11mg. That might explain why I've vaped about 5 or 6ml today. My temp repair of superglue and clear tape on the ARO is holding up nicely too. I'll still be glad when the new one gets here. Of course I'm going to keep the bottom section from this one and the coil. In the end this is going to work out nice I'll be getting an extra 2.4 ohm atty for free and an extra bottom center section. I'm gonna toss the tank section of this when the new one gets here. I figure I should only ever need one anyway being Stainless Steel and Pyrex it should last forever. It's fairly heavy and seems really solid. My eGo is actually a bit top heavy now so I have be a tiny bit careful setting it down.

I would be afraid of vaping something that my ejuice came into contact with super glue or tape. Some of it almost has to be leaching into the liquid.

Yes Possibly a tiny bit. I think this will be ok till Saturday morning when the new one gets here though. The tape is on the outside of course and I only used a real tiny amount of superglue under it. I just didn't think the tape would work well enough on it's own. I am definitely tossing the tank section as soon as the new one gets here. I also gave it a good bit to dry and rinsed it well with warm water after to rinse it out and leak test it at the same time.

 

[salemgold]

You should be fine. i know that alot of people use super glue. Aquarium glue is safer but not many people have that laying around

 

[5cardstud]

I used a bio-safe glue on one of mine but it didn't hold. They had problems with the juice getting between the glass and the glue causing the tank to come loose. I still have one that's broke but it was replaced with 2 so I don't care.

 

[FranC]

I bought a tube of aquarium glue from Amazon. Pretty cheap and it works good.

 

[5cardstud]

Good because after I get done with this mod I'm building I'm going to do a tank I have an idea for and it will take some gluing. BTW I found out Superglue is safe after it cures.
