Tootle Puffers, Redux (The Sequel)

[juskiddin]

I'll have to try the tea,the Misses has a stash somewhere in the kitchen.I started growing a mint bush behind the garage last season for the very purpose of making a mint tea.The bush should be big enough for a harvest next fall.It grew like the dickens.



I'm better today,perhaps I was just over tired.I have not tried Cold FX but have seen ads for it on the telebision,I'll get some next time I'm in the grocery store and give it a try.
I hope you're feeling better!

Thanks! - I've been up only a half hour or so but so far I do feel better.
The Cold-FX is expensive but worth it IMO. Countless times I've been certain I'm coming down with something, toss a few Cold-FX down my throat and the next morning I'm all good.
Glad you're feeling better, sorrynomore.

That's awesome. I'm holding my own too now. Was sick back in October but so far, so good.

 

[Rixsta]

Right until she takes that one too!!!

No way, I love this mod. Funny thing is, I need a new tank for it now.

How did it look with the H V2?

Bad mate, I have ordered a Silver one to match. This mod is so nice in Silver, feels quality and nice weight with a 18650. It runs that battery down quick though at 65w. I have ordered some green efest 26650 thanks to mooch, they were in his top 5. Then Ill be back to the sweet spot of 75w, hope it's not going to add to much weight though.
Either way, it's a slick mod to take out and def worth the money. Very please with it.
That fire button is great too, me and my buttons but it's one of the better ones.

That H V2 is banging some flavor out.
Happy vapor atm.

Yup!

Combined E-Liquids = 36 ml
6 mg Nicotine per ml
41.67% PG / 58.33% VG
15 ml PG / 21 ml VG

I use this calculator for combining.
DIY E-Liquid Combining Calculator

Right, but the problem I have with the juice calculators is that you have to guess how much nic-base to add, to get to the desired strength. What I am looking for is a formula to calculate how much nic-base to add to a given amount of premixed juice at 0% to get at a desired nic-level.
So the known variables are:
- the amount of premixed juice (0mg/ml)
- the strenght of your nic-base (in my case 36mg/ml)
- the desired strength (in my case 6 mg/ml)

Unknown variables:
- the end-volume of mixed liquid
- the amount of nic-base to add

Anyone?

 

[Krisma]

A quick a dirty method

End result of 6mg (1/6 strength of your 36mg)
So for your 30ml of base omg remove 5ml (1/6) replace with 5 ml of your nic.

This is a calculator you can use. Just put in your nic data and leave the rest blank. The calculation will tell you how much eliquid to remove and replace with nic. Disregard the costs and put in your own PG/VG ratios.

 

[DingerCPA]

@Muru, I think the "short" answer is that you need 5 parts 0mg/ml juice to 1 part 36mg/ml

Let's think in a 100 ml end mix. So, in 100ml, you need 600mg nic total to give you the 6mg/ml end result.

Therefore, you would need 16.666667 mL of 36mg/ml to get you the net 600 mg nic. (600/36 = 16.66667)

The remaining would be 100 - 16.6666667 or 83.333333mL 0mg/ml

Not terribly algebraic, but working with your base and getting you to your desired level, it's sensible.

 

[DingerCPA]

@Muru, note, you will dilute your flavor by 1/6 as well.... May not be noticeable, but just keeping it real

 

[Krisma]

Adding to dinger's post

For your 30ml (5/6) add 6ml of your 36mg giving you a total of 36ml (30 eliquid + 6ml nic)

A quick write up of my trials and tribulations with the Cubis tank.
Firstly I had read of some issues some other Aussies were having with major flooding so when it arrived I followed all their advice and it was a disaster, I had loaded the 1.5ohm coil, filled below the max fill line made sure the airflow was open when I closed the lid to ease internal pressure and covered the driptip to keep even pressure in the coil and chimney and generally adopted the most bizzare routine know to exist.

Primed with 3 drops waited a couple of mins and then fired it up. Immediately the coil plus chimney flooded with eliquid and I was almost drinking it. You know what I mean. Arrrrrrg, dismantled, cleaned up and tried again.....same thing. And just in case I hadn't learnt anything in the other two attempts I did it a third time.

That was it. Cleaned it mopped the floor, sprayed down the benchtop with the hose and swore off it.
Let me tell you that I was not a happy camper.

Yesterday the additional coils came and I just rolled my eyes, but then one of the guys mentioned that he recoiled the factory coil and I though ok I had the flooded one.......so this morning I pulled it apart. The wicking material was almost bone dry. A bit surprising considering the flooding. Hmmm I thought, maybe the factory coil was a dud. It has been known to happen so I took a brand new coil 1.5ohm from the blister pack and loaded it. I did not prime it or do anything weird I just screwed it to the chimney filled the tank, waited 2 mins, changed my driptip and vaped.

I have to say that it vapes very well, the ramp up of the coil is slowish almost like a dual coil so I do need to fire a bit before I vape but it does work. I am a bit cautious of the initial trouble but I am hoping that the enclosed coils were just wicked or packed incorrectly and that the blister pack coils are fine.

So it's been a couple weeks, how is it working for you now? I got one and the same thing happened with the 1.5 coil. I switched out to the 1.0 and it works fine. Going to order more coils and another Cubis

I am still vaping it. (1.5ohm coils) probably the only thing I do is that after I fill is I let it sit for a couple of mins. Seems to settle down. I still get a small amount condensation in the chimney below my drip tip but that happens in everything. It's not my favourite but it is still part of my routine. Comparing the two this Cubis and the frank n tank I would go with this for looks and the Frank n tank for performance.

It's not the tank, it's because your vaping it in Australia

And it's a great place to be. You will need some "special" vaping gear when you come for your visit.

Does your vapor twirl clockwise or counterclockwise? Must affect the flavor.

Hmmm, where can I find a top coil/wick Kayfun, so it'll be "normal" when I vape there?

Okay T-Puffers,

Just came home with my brand new CF4! It's my first mod so I'm super excited and nervous...a wee bit of a learning curve

I read somewhere that even straight out of the box, the unit should charge for about 4 hours. Is that right? The battery display looks to be telling me it's fully charged. Huh?

When I first turned it on (bottom button) and then pressed the button 3x I noticed the fire button light came on (very briefly) and it was green.

Also treated myself to a new tank - a nauti mini. Yep, I'm pullin' out all the stops

So I guess what I'm asking is should I be charging it even though the battery display/picture looks like it's fully charged?

I hope I won't need to ask a kazillion more questions!

Thanks loads!

Sorry I don't own one. I do own some Innokin mods and if the light is green you should be good to go. I suggest you make friends with the manual to get things down. Oh and congrats on your new toy!!
