Week in review

[Jacoji]

New toys ordered or received?
New flavors tried?
New flavor made?
Victories and challenges?

I received my ZAP RBA and made my first coil and wick. I ordered a mechanical mod and another smaller RBA. I donated a 5ml carto tank to a friend, set it all up with a cartomizer and it was a bum Boge that immediately tasted burnt so I swapped out the carto in a full tank with minimal juice loss (yay!). Tried dripping for the first time in an HH.357 atomizer. Received and love new juice flavors of White Wabbit (coconut cake - lovely with my cocktail that includes frozen pineapples as ice cubes) and Blackberry and Marion Berry ice creams. Also received first order of supplies to try some DIY juice.

How was your week?

I got a phoenix v3, igo-L, and A7 rebuildable dripping atties to play with. They are all good in their own respect. Great for testing juices and changing things up without having to fill a tank.

My theme song of the week was Rod Stewart's "Do ya think I'm sexy?"

How are you liking the ZAP? I am so curious about them but also intimidated.

My week in general was crappy with exception to vaping. I bought a couple 1300 mah ego batteries and T3's to try. I should be getting those tomorrow. I wasted perfectly good money on Blu cartos. Not impressed but at least now I can say I am informed. The most exciting development was getting my Wizard Labs order and beginning DIY. I made three 10 mil juice flavors all 18 mg. Papaya/coconut, Chocolate mint, and Vanilla coffee. So even though I am not very mechanically inclined my baking skills appear to be paying off.

EricHill78: I love that you have a theme song for the week - and more so that it is Rod Stewart.

Leal: I do really like the ZAP. It is a bit intimidating, but I built my first coil and a hybrid wick (wisps of cotton on the wick just for the length under the coil) on day 2. Videos and trial and error. The silence of the draw is something to get used to. I describe it to a vaping friend as "smoking a marshmallow" because it is so soft. Sorry for the sub-par week in general but congrats on the DIY juices. Where did you get your flavors?

 

[Leal]

I got TFA flavors through Wizard Labs. Awesome experience so far.

The draw on the ZAP sounds perfect. I might need to just get over the nervousness and try it. I think I know what I am saving up for next.

Got my second ZAP this week, and not a moment too soon because the other had just gone out as part of a trade for a GGTS. Loving them both so far... enough that I'm serious considering just selling off the Vamo and eVic. Not that they're bad by any means, but they just don't compare to the Provari/ZAP and GGTS/Odysseus combos.

Also, I discovered the value of steeping this week, when I found that my favorite juice (HHV's Shadowfax) gets even better if you open it, shake it up, close it back up, and leave it alone for a few weeks.

In other juice news, Highbrow Vapors is going on my "order more from them" list, Pink Spot has moved to the "Don't blindly order large bottles but some of it's really good" list, and a vendor who shall remain nameless is going on my "Oh, hell no" list.

IMTrick: Juice ordering is a challenge. I'm glad I started with sample sizes. I mostly order from Kick Bass Vapor now. Once I start DIY I will be attempting to reverse-engineer some flavors but I know I will stick with them for some of my favorites.

I'm hoping to make a DIY herbal-tea blend. I find I vape most between 10pm and 2am and then I am WIRED. I need a "sleepy-time" vape.

It's been one of the biggest weeks in hardware for me in a long time. Normally eliquid makes up the vast majority of my experimenting.

In the last week I got my first RBA with the Dream and my first big battery mod with a VAMO. New juices tried have been going through my everything sampler from AiV.
