Would this work?

I have an atty I use for direct dripping, primarily just to test new juices but occasionally if I have just a little left of a juice and don't want to fill a carto/clearo. I really don't like my atty though. I may have just ordered a bad one (don't remember where I ordered it, it's been a few months), but I find it hard to get a really good flavor from it, which makes tweaking DIY juice a tad bit difficult. ;) Most of the time whatever I am tasting has a metallic hint to it.

So I was thinking tonight, I wonder if I could take a vision nano, remove the mouthpiece and plug, and just add a few drops directly to the atty. So that is my question for the vision experts, can I do this? Or do you have any other tips I could use?

Thanks guys. Now if the USPS will ever get here with my new order, I will be able to retire my nanos to testing.They are being so slow.

They really are slow as molasses. At least the New York USPS is. I made 2 orders Monday morning; one to GV and one to my juice vendor. Neither shipped until Tuesday morning. I got priority mail with both. The juice from Ohio got here in Georgia yesterday and the GV stuff is supposed to be here tomorrow. I don't know what is up with the mail up there. I mean shipping on Tuesday and arriving on Saturday with priority mail is poo!

That is ridiculous! My gv order that shipped tues (shipping notice mon, actually in their hands tues) should be arriving tomorrow without priority shipping. I checked earlier and it was in Mobile, and I consistently get them the next day once it hits Mobile.

So if our orders are arriving the same day in the same general region of the country, WTH are they (USPS) charging priority for? Obviously they are not speeding anything up with it.

And for that matter, why are my packages going to Mobile anyway? It goes west to Mobile to come back east to PC????

Yeah, I know. Wishing I got regular shipping! My orders always go down to Atlanta in central Georgia when I'm in the extreme north Georgia one town over from both North Carolina and Tennessee! I guess it just goes to the big shipping hub first or something.

The tracking information on the USPS website is iffy at best, though. It says that it just left NY today. But it's still calling for it to be delivered tomorrow.

I ordered on the 19th at around 8am est, shipping info was received on the 20th, the shipment was actually accepted on the 21st and then it did it's usual bouncing around NY. Originally, it said it would be delivered today, but it changed last night. I'm just glad that I'm not in any desperate need!

Hopefully I'll see it in Atlanta tonight or tomorrow morning. That means that it will be here on the same day.
Edited: what do you know, it is in Atlanta now :D

this is how I test all of my DIY work; with a vision or fluxo. just drip 2 drops directly on the coil and vape. I leave all plugs and mouthpieces off. when I'm done I either dry burn or just vape a few drops of PG until the flavor is gone.

LOVE these things lol

I hope they came through for you. Mine did finally arrive. Which would mean first class got to Florida faster than priority to north Georgia if yours didn't arrive. Nonsense.

Nope, won't get it till Monday at the earliest. I'm just hoping that nothing else holds it up :( I appreciate the thought, though.

My aunt that worked at the post office said she's seen Priority bins sit there for days, when first class goes right through. She said first class is better than priority for most people. For me, I usually get priority in two days once in the hands of the USPS. I guess being in the center of the country with a shipping hub has it's benefits. So, I get first class when cheaper and still get things in two days from New York and California.

I have never had priority mail take more than 3 days that I can recall. And I think it was only once or twice that it took that long. Waiting a full week is just unheard of for me. I would have gotten first class if the cartomizers were just for my husband and me, but there are 3 that are for family members. My mom wanted two stretches and I got one for my uncle. He is still using the ego-t tank system and I feel that it is my duty to show him what he is missing. But, at least none of us are without cartos/tanks while we wait.

Tracking still says it's going to be delivered yesterday :D

OMG I'm going to cry. It's STILL NOT HERE!!!!! I just sent a PM to Bad with the order # and tracking #. I have never dealt with this before so I don't know what to do. I don't know if this is something I have to straighten out myself or if the sender has to do it. Gonna call my local post office a bit later to see if they can give me any info or advice. The USPS customer service number doesn't even let you talk to a dang human being. :mad:
