Don't know if this will take off, but I'm curious if anyone here has used Geoff's Doublers to salvage other juices that you don't really like, but can't bring yourself to throw away.

I haven't gotten to it yet, but I plan on trying some Cherry and tobacco/Menthol Doubler in some of my older Heaven-gifts juices to see if they can be salvaged. All told I probably have 10-15 30ml bottles of Chinese-made "real" crap that I can't use in it's current form. My guess is that Atomic Fireball might be usefull for this as well.

Might be interesting to compare notes on which flavor Doublers work well with certain non-TV juices.... thoughts?

Absolutely. I encourage people to buy Doublers to "spruce up" gawd awful liquids they've purchased elsewhere and I've heard good results. Makes me proud. Give it a try. I don't put some stupid demand that you you have to buy my Doublers with my products.

But yeah, I'm interested to hear testimonials and success stories of how the Doublers have "rejuvenated" their otherwise BLEH liquids from other vendors.

I have several dozen bottles of "real" crap that I won't vape "now" (thanks to Mr. TV!) unless I can fix it up some. Which flavor would be a good overall fixer? I don't expect to be able to save any of the mints, YUK!, but maybe some of the others can be saved. I have several fruit flavors that I don't like or can't taste and same with vanilla. I don't want to dilute the nic concentration from 24mg too much though.

This is of great interest to me as well. I've got a pretty good collection of Dekang, mostly tobacco flavors, but they just aren't cutting it for me. For one, they are all 11mg, so the first thing I've tried is putting in some of Geoff's tobacco (48mg) to boost the kick a bit.

So far it's working out great. Not only a much better throat hit but the flavor has improved considerably. Next I wish to get a doubler in order to add a bit of VG. So I have to say, I am really happy I came across TV as Geoff's products are great for someone like me, who does wish to experiment a little bit, but doesn't wish to put the time into mixing different flavors, nic etc.
Also, that blueberry cheesecake I got? Awesome! I just might have to try adding it to some of the other crap, thinking the flavor is potent enough that it will probably completely mask at least the weaker flavors.

I tried saving some really unpleasant liquids with TV Doublers. Unfortunately it was not successful. The previous liquids were so bad, it was like sending in a chef when you really needed a hazmat tech. :p

But with liquids that aren't bad-tasting, just weak or 'unbalanced', I've had good success mixing with TV.

I've also used TV Doublers several times now to 'save' my DIY mistakes. :D Now I just DIY starting with 25-50% Doubler in a complementary flavor, adding nic and extra flavor, and I know it'll turn out well.

I've had a few of those hazmat nightmares myself. Blech, makes you wonder what the seller was thinking or if they even vape at all.

Those doublers will probably help me, too, with some of my scarier diy attempts. Luckily, they're kind of all on the same lines of caramel, toffee, coffee kinds of things. Probably a squirt or 2 of the caramel doubler will heal those. :)

I'm so glad to find these doublers, I hate seeing my money go into the trash can.

I find the Butterfinger doubler is perfect with my dessert-like DIY attempts, and the Blueberry Cheesecake doubler helps with the fruity or creamy flavors. Adding my Orange/Choc/Buttercream doubler also helps some flavors (indeed, the Orange in that one is too strong for me to vape on its own).

I've just gotten the Buttercream doubler, so I look forward to experimenting. :)
