I knew you'd beat me to it U-Dawg!!

I tried Frenilla right away with a slightly used build. I think this one will shine with some steeping.

Put a fresh coil & wick in my Zenith V2, after looking at U-Dawg's pic, I'm pretty sure I've been building Clapton coils without knowing it!! Twisted 1.1ohm coil wrapped on a 14ga needle, wicked with Japanese cotton.
Mixed up my bottles of H1N1 to make 3mg nic. Again, I'm gonna have to let this steep. I can tell there are some good flavors in there, but something is coming out up front that is very overpowering.
I may need to dial down the voltage a little on my Saber Touch VV. With the above coil I'm currently vaping at ~32w. I'm sitting on the couch with a vodka-cran, and I don't feel like getting up right now for the mini-screwdriver to adjust it!!

Also, keep in mind, I've been vaping 100%VG juice for the last 8 months exclusively. The PG taste might be what I'm getting too.

I'll definitely try again tomorrow with less power.

Nice!! A Clapton Coil is 28g wrapped with 32g so it looks like a guitar string. Then I do 6 wraps on a 5/64 drill bit for 1.2ohms. The flavor in better imo than a regular micro coil.

Ahh ok. Little different. Mine is two strands of 30g twisted. I need to get some 28g.

Tried The Switch (Darkside) today...another one that will have to steep for me. Seriously think that the PG taste is what I don't like, but, I can tell this flavor will develop well.

H1N1/The Virus update: Something mysterious happened to this juice in the last 24 hours. Something special. The pungent taste that I didn't like yesterday is almost completely gone. I'm getting heavy cream and vanilla, with a hint of spice. Dropped a few drops into my Zenith after work today. It hit me. Few more drops...what was that? Hit it again...Oh my, what is happening right now? I can't put this down. Been dripping it ever since. Every pull gets better. Something is happening, not sure what this feeling is...it's like I'm, I'm...I can't think of the word....Clark, what has happened to me with this juice?!?!?!?

OK so I have had a Vaping epiphany!! Was starting to get bummed because I had not had a real wow moment yet with the first 3 juices I tried got cookie, pbc and home slice. The flavors were good just not blowing me away. Been Vaping them with a magma on a mech mod with a 1.2ohm coil. I just started vaping strawnilla in my other magma also wit a 1.2ohm build but on my sigelei 50w at between 17-20 watts. And bloom it hit me finally. Just felt in love!! I think on mech mods I need to lower my builds. Going to go back and retry the first three at higher watts. But as of now strawnilla is my favorite by far!!!

I'm running at about 27w with The Virus and I think this is the sweet spot! 32w was too much for me with it.

Ok the more I vape this I get a slight hint of mint chocolate. Just noticed born on date is 10/03/14 does it need to steep?

Specific devices will bring out the mint for some people no matter how well-steeped it is. If you taste the mint, you have a really nice rig. ;)

12mg is punchy in a dripper huh? ;)

My personal sweet spot has landed around .5ohms on a fresh battery - it settles in at 28w or so. The liquid loves the heat.

Also, as an aside, the TA in the tobacco has a tendency to take over in Kayfun style devices - I'm not particularly fond of The Virus in a Kayfun... sub-ohm dripping material for me (Or, a REO with an RM2)...

I'm very tempted to fill my KFL with The Virus and give it a try. I'm afraid if I do, my Virus will be gone in no time! I really want to take these slowly and experience the whole trip of flavor development!
My plan is to drip all of the flavors I have right now, until I've let them steep and get a feel for how much I like each one. Once I know I like them for sure, I'll be ordering proper "sample" size bottle for the KFL!!
I'm venturing into DIY too, so I have plenty of juice to keep my busy.

Yesterday I tried The Switch again. This stuff is potent! It needs to settle down some for me to enjoy it.
Tried Frenilla again too. There's something tasty hiding in there, but still going to need to steep plenty more.
The Virus. OOOhhh The Virus. This stuff is insane!! I can't put it down. It gets better and better with each drop. Yeah, infected, definitely INFECTED! I see a couple of 50's coming my way in the near future!! (one 6mg and one NZ so I can make 'near 3mg')
I still need to try Strawnilla & Wakonda. I want to try them with a fresh build on my Zenith, but The Virus has taken that over all week!!

This whole infection thing is driving me absolutely crazy. I'm at work, vaping on a blend I made from another vendor's juice, working down the last of my stock from them. It's a tasty mix, fruity goodness, but all I can think of all day is The Virus. I can almost taste it. I need some more!

That's why you start hitting the Virus straight out of the mailbox and keep hitting it until you suck the last drops out of the bottle. The flavor morphs continuously and you'll taste things that aren't even actual ingredients in the juice! For the way it changes, Virus could have just as aptly been named "Chameleon".

Oh, and P.S. - what has happened to you with this juice is...

.....#INFECTED!!!

Absolutely!
The only thing keeping this juice out of my Kayfun is so I can drip it daily for as long as possible!

And you're not kidding about the morphing. I swear it's changed tastes while inside my RDA!
