Yes, I do. I think the PT2 has a clearer taste...don't know how to explain it other than that...a bit stronger but mostly just more 'crisp'. Now, I am not using boge cartos. I am using something that is probably a knock off, but definitely not a genuine boge. I have read others say that Ray's boge cartos are the best and they are a good price as well. Just haven't used up all that I have yet. Damn, I do hate being frugal! Or sort of frugal. I spend more than I should on vapegear.

Thanks for the input Glowplug :) I will still get a carto just to try it, and I love getting vape mail

If you have a fairly dedicated space, it doesn't take,e long to mix a cpl of batches.
I did 8 sample batches in 30-min this afternoon. It helps to have an e-liquid recipe book that has a calculator built in on a tablet or laptop.
You can make up the recipes anytime then mix them in free (ish) moments. ;-)

Don't be scrrrrd... you can do it!

Thanks for the vote of confidence. Is it true that the flavorings found in grocery stores etc. by LorAnn are no good for vaping? I was told that today and I was surprised. I thought they were the same as the ones we can order by that manufacturer.

Some are and some are not...
A safe rule for purchasing flavors somewhere other than an ecf recognized vendor... (aka wally-world..etc...) make sure it's the same product.
If a loranne flavor is sold at a DIY vendor, it is the same loranne flavor on the shelf. If it is not also sold at a DIY vendor Do Not Vape It!!!
They make many flavors which are safe for ingestion but not safe for inhalation.
If you are unsure, Don't Vape It!!!

I'll buy VG or PG at a pharmacy, but, to be safe, only get flavors from a DIY vendor. It's just a self-check and I'm more comfortable...

Loranne flavors are not designed with vaping in mind, so if ordering directly from Loranne's, if it's not also sold at a DIY Vendor... (you know how this sentence ends);-)

hello and good monrz!
Has anyone tried the method I suggested for removing flavors from empty e-liquid bottles by rinsing and sticking them in the freezer overnight (followed by another rinse)? It's been a couple of months, I never heard anything. :confused:
I will be doing this soon as i am running out of new bottles for DIY. Since i will be remaking similar fruity juices i believe this will work great even if it leaves a tiny bit of remnant.
My peach mango is a hit, so is the tangerine lemon-lime. i ended up giving away the two bottles of these that i made to my father-in-law. i miss them already.

#5 Have you ever had someone you care about discourage you from doing something you like doing? Make you feel like what you are doing is stupid or a waste of time? It really doesn't feel good. Really has a way of deflating your enthusiasm. :glare:

Schnarph, I tried the freezer suggestion. It seemed to work as far as I can tell. And a couple of those bottles were pretty fragrant.
yes. sadly, wifey does often when it comes to vaping and my music label & event promotion. two things i am passionate about and she is indifferent or negative. when i wont the ithaka, she didn't even want to see a picture, she was almost mad about it. its times like that when i wonder about my life partner.
just typing this has altered my mood. i usually ignore it. but it can be hurtful and really piss me off. i care about her interests.... (and if i dont, i pretend to.....)

Looking at 4-poly-pros and a Pyrex sidewinder as I type this... ;-)

I'm a VVVer for life, now!
once you get one, you must have more.
its the nature of the beast.
i started with one, and am up to 6. i have also tried the x8 and a dct and a 'mega carto' all 3 of which suck. cant stand the dct. if someone only cas experience with dct tanks, they have not experienced a real catro tank. world of difference, the mechanics should be the same, but once you go BOGE you wont ever buy another brand again.
I am really considering getting one of the VVV tanks with all silver tops/bottoms to go on my Vamo 2
Then again, if I get a wrap, I may want to get the tank top to match the wrap
this is what id recommend. i have a premium polypro with SS caps and screw that looks great on the vamo. i have a vaoprskin on the vamo now, a black carbon wrap, and it still looks great. the wraps dont cover the battery cap at the bottom or the top piece where the connection is. so the wrap leaves the chrome exposed on the top and bottom, making the SS caps look great with any wrap. :)
Yes, I do. I think the PT2 has a clearer taste...don't know how to explain it other than that...a bit stronger but mostly just more 'crisp'. Now, I am not using boge cartos. I am using something that is probably a knock off, but definitely not a genuine boge. I have read others say that Ray's boge cartos are the best and they are a good price as well. Just haven't used up all that I have yet. Damn, I do hate being frugal! Or sort of frugal. I spend more than I should on vapegear.
go with BOGE, it is noticeably better than the other brands that i have tried. I am liking the PT2, more than the original. a little less airy, less dry hits, and no glue that makes the glass look very dirty around the seems. has good taste as well, and havent experienced a leak, i have had some juice get in my mouth though as the juice level got really low. i use it for testing juices primarily or vaping juices that i have 10ml or less of. if my DIY is good in the PT2, then it graduates to a VVV and i make more :)

#1 So I finally went to bed to sleep off my irritation last night. Got a lot of sleep, which was good since my insomnia has been really out of hand lately. Still irritated, though.

I picked up a few new juices from the B&Ms yesterday. Only paid $12 for three 15mls and 6ft of wire. Outrageously good deal. So now I'm vaping away on a flavor that I NEVER thought I would enjoy. Peanut Butter and Banana. I feel like Elvis.

The B&Ms around here are hella-expensive for juice...

LD, I'd say 29g Kanthal for the ohm-age. Unless you're building really tight coils, then 28g
Get both and play... ;-)

The B&M here is also expensive compared to where they get them...The last time I was there it was $6 for 10ml... I could order the same for $3.50... They would offer 2 10ml bottles for $10.... but I can order 50 ml for $13...I guess that's what they need to do, but this is for one of the cheapest juices out there anyway.... not very powerful in flavor....
