Top and bottom needs to match. And it needs to look good.

Rubs me the wrong way when I see a red mod with a blue rda and green beauty ring/drip tip. The facebook groups are terrible for this. I don't know if these people even realize they need to wear matching socks.

I logged onto reddit to find an example:

The other thing that REALLY bugs me is when people use the same colour stuff, but they aren't the same shades. IMO this pairing looks outrageously bad. I'd rather use a black/clear top.

This is generally why I buy all my RDAs in black/stainless and buy caps afterwards to match whatever mods I want to use them on.

My socks don't always match but I always wear clean socks and clean underwear. Like the OP, I clean my RTAs and replace the coils frequently. When I see photos of nasty coils, I don't know if these people even realize they need to wear clean underwear --haha!

    I'm from before OCD, anxiety, and social influencers, so very little bothers me.
    I cut my rock and roll teeth on Toys in the Attic :thumb:
    But having my 2 teenage daughters call Steven Tyler 'that Skittles guy' I just find slightly rude. 'Deep Purple' Chasing Shadows is headphone worthy as well.

    Cleaning my battery contacts
    Cleaning my tanks at least every 2 days, regardless of a juice change/coil change. I at least clean the glass.
    I always turn my mods off if I am not actively chain vaping them.
    Taking batteries out of mods that I am not using.


    I also generally wipe my mods down with some kind of santizing wipe once a week just because I know how disgusting my hands are. Same thing with my phone. The amount of germs/bacteria on phones is astronomical. I know I use my phone when I poop so I don't want to carry the germs from when I last touched my phone on the pooper to eat food.

    I wished I could even taste any juice properly to be OCD about the subject :( I have ......ed taste buds that don't seem to work too good. About the only flavor I can really taste from a juice is cinnamon flavored juice. I must have spent a fortune on fruit flavors but they are weak and I can barely taste them :rolleyes:
    Sorry to break across the thread but I'm really interested of what ejuice you are using, just to get my crazy carving over cinnamon juices.:drool:

    I’m OC about wasting juice. I can’t switch flavors before emptying a tank, which is a problem because I just found out that’s the culprit for my prematurely burnt coils.

    I don’t know what I’ll do now. Life makes no sense :cry::(:2c:
    Well, sounds like the best you can do is keep each tank dedicated to a flavor profile, so you don't have to dump it? Kind of restricts what you can do, especially if you have a favorite tank, but probably your only option.

    edit: oops, thought you said this on your other thread about tank problems!

    DIY @PatVapes . You'll get over wasting a tankful of juice..... About when you get over the cost of all your supplies.

    My conundrum with juice? How much do I make? 20 ml is just enough to come to love or hate something. 60 ml feels nice and robust, but you can waste a lot of ingredients if you don't like it. Also, it IS a lot of juice, but if the flavors are perfect it kinda flies by.

    Sigh.

    I’m ocd with just about everything. Mods must be matchy matchy. Atty must be clean and flavor has to be on point. Mod MUST not get a scratch, nick, scuff or I’m devistated. If I really like a juice I must buy at least a liter when it’s on sale. Oh list goes on and on. It’s bad. But it’s been my life for the last 8 yrs.

    The forum has made me realize I do not have one ounce of OCD. The stories about people's cleaning procedures leave me feeling inadequate and embarrassed.

    Matching? A gold atty with a silver mod is my idea of matching precious colors.....

    Nevermind the wifey's comments regarding me walking around the house with one sock on and one off, I've dealt with that for 19 years.

    Just admitting all this is a first step for me. I am going to go bite this hangnail off my pinky finger now.
