I don't really need to chime in here do I? http://markspens.com/mod%20holders.htm Just a little hobby of mine.

Ok some reviews and some "initial impressions" on my new flavors. All I can say is they are my new #1 vendor. They blow everyone else I have tried away, seriously, in a big way. Unicorn Blood: This has quickly become my favorite of all. Smells just like Hawaiian Punch, very red in color, but to me, tastes like a tropical drink you would get in the Bahamas. There is a spice to it reminiscent of spiced rum, very good flavor. Amazing vapor production and great taste at their standard mix of 65vg 35pg 18mg as well as 50-50 18mg as I have tried both. I cannot tell that much of a difference so I will be ordering the standard form here on out, already ordered more since the tasting I went through that 10ml and half a 30ml since then. Endless Summer: This is a Strawberry Lemonade flavor, clear in color with a slight yellowish tint, that I am very very fond of. I am torn whether I call this or Uni Blood my #1 flavor. It is very citrusy with a sweet kick too. I have a hard time explaining this one, but I like it a lot and have already ordered more. It too has a very "tropical" feel to the flavor and is very complex. Another one I will have a tank of almost all the time. OrangeZilla: This is a first impression, but when I took the first draw I was like WTF is this? I was expecting sweet and got more of a spice and strong throat hit. Then I took another draw and was like, ok This is OK. By the third draw I had figure out I really like this liquid and haven't taken the tank off since about 8pm last night. It is orangish pink in color and I can taste orange with a cream but also a spice....almost like a slight hint of clove. WaterFelons: I have searched for a good watermelon flavor. Watermelon Drip fro VapeDudes and Watermelon form Sweet-Vapes, ECblends, and MBV all tasted like candy to me, not the actual thing. This one, at a first impression, is the best melon flavor I have tried. Not overly sweet, clear in color, great flavor and vapor. If you like melon vapes, this is one to try Gummy Blood: I am still not sure about this one. First impression is there is a lot going on with this one. Several fruits mixed with a bit of a spice taste as well. It is green in color and tastes good, but to be honest I haven't vaped enough of it to give anything but a first impression. So far a flavor that tastes good, but until I vape at least a tank it will be tough to know if I like this one a lot or just a little. Rasta Blood: Ok this is supposed to be a Strawberry and white chocolate blend with a hint of "Rasta". I do not get the hint of Rasta at all, and overall not a huge fan of this one. I can taste the strawberry, but not the chocolate, and whatever goes in there is emulate "Rasta" tastes more like a spice or something. Either way, this is the only Fuzion flavor that has gone into the "Give away, donate, or sell" box. Overall I really like Fuzion. My orders seem to arrive a day or two earlier than what is estimated, they are easy to communicate with and answer quickly, and their flavors are complex and pretty much on the money. Their standard base is 65vg35pg but can be changed in the comments section of your order. I have never had a liquid of any mixture from anywhere else that produces the clouds of vapor these flavors do. As always this is what they taste like TO ME. With liquids something can taste like heaven to one and like a turd to another, so its all subjective. They are not the most expensive and not the cheapest, but very very high quality imo and worth a try. Their 10ml bottles are $9, 30ml are $18, 120ml plastic bottles are $55 and glass in the 120ml is $5 more. I wish they had a 50ml option. They also offer a (3) 10ml sample pack for $19 which is a pretty good deal if you wanted to try them.

Soon to be two of everything!

Here's a simple li'l mahogany block stand I made for the missus today at work. It's designed to hold two standard diameter eGos and a 1300mAh spinner. Simple but effective.

A shot of most of my stuff. Can't see the left side of the box which has 30+ flavorings nor can you see the 20+ batteries and charging station i have set up on a table across the room.

Looks like a piece of garbage for a lot of money to me. But I've only been vaping for 4 years so what do I know.

My 18650s were 9 bucks at Veteran Vaper. http://www.theveteranvaper.com/efest-imr-18650-2000mah-3-7v-button-top/ I'm not saying pay B&M prices for stuff but there are plenty of US companies that are competitively priced and when you consider customer service, ease, shipping costs and time, I wouldn't order anything from China personally. Especially to save 5-6% tops when it is all said and done. I know that's where they mostly originate, hardware wise, but let them make the wholesale dollars and keep the retail dollars at home is my view point.

I am SURE Troy was just amazed at your generous and benevolent offer to assist me in making wise vaping purchases

I couldn't agree more with that statement! I did some work for a lady one time and she proceeded to show me her 'little pet'. It was a 4-foot Iguana that she had raised since it was a baby. Well, it eventually got too big and too aggressive... and she had little kids around. So, she ended up giving it and the 120 gallon enclosure to me so she didn't have to take care of it anymore. It was quite old by then.. and all it could do in a 120g rectangular tank was lay on it's perch... but it did live for another 5-6 years with me until it finally died... just old age I think. People just don't realize how large some of these animals will end up getting... and then once they can't care properly for them they usually get pawned off on to someone else or simply not cared for properly anymore. All animals are 'cute' when they are babies... but please do your homework before you make a purchase! These critters need to be living in a place where they will be cared for to the fullest extent!

Keep my mouth shut, keep my mouth shut, keep my mouth shut.......

Hand over your credit card and I'll totally rock your world!

Yes my technique of swishing the parts around in a small cup of alcohol and pouring them out into my hand to rinse has since been replaced with pouring then into a strainer to rinse

Nice collection sub. You have room for plenty more. I love the mahogany Rixter. Hmmmm.. I'm getting inspired to make another holder with more slots, out of better, more higher quality wood.

Oh wow. Very very nice man. You make some real nice holders. I especially like the burl. I likey, I likey a lot.

Easiest way to explain it ever is that Big Tobacco is losing billions to the E-Cig industry, they have both politicians and doctors at their disposal, bought and paid for. If there were ANY WAY they could prove they are harmful, they would have done it already. Instead, they are trying to find ways to invest and buy into the industry as they KNOW once reputable long term studies are made public it will show e-cigs to be a much much healthier alternative to smoking combustible leaves and stems.

Kanger Brand Replacement coils are $5.95 for a 5 pack from sweet-vapes.com that's only $1.19 per coil and a good deal imo. Also the coils that come with the tanks suck, plain and simple. I dont even try anymore. If I get a tank with a coil with it or in it I just toss em in a box for hard times and replace them with a freshie.

I thought the op might have meant the coils themselves were failing absolutely. If the coils are merely starting to taste off, burnt or whatever that's more than likely a matter of the properties of the juice being vaped. Generally the darker the juice the shorter the coil life before changing or cleaning. I have some juices that degrade the coils after a couple of tanks. I have one that goes a full 2 weeks of daily, frequent use. As far as replacement coils, it's generally better to go with name brands vs. generics. The few pennies saved aren't worth the degradation in performance imo. In the case of replacement coils for Kanger devices, if you don't see the name Kanger in the item description it's likely a generic. While I haven't personally tried generic coil assemblies for protanks I did try generic replacement coils for Vivi Nova tanks. The difference in performance was night and day.

The Fuzion arrives tomorrow. I tried the Dr Venkman, and am vaping it as I type. It does actually taste exactly like those lime Hi-C drinks that featured Slimer on the box from when I was a kid. The Raspberry Lemonade doesn't really have a lemonade taste right out of the bottle. It may require steeping to bring the lemonade out of it, but it sure smells like it. All the other flavors taste spot on right out of the bottles, but I will still allow them all to steep while I continue to vape them. I'm like a kid on Christmas morning with these vape goodies. Teehee. lol Edit : After the last few vapes, I can now really taste the lemonade. My taste buds must've been off after testing all the others.

Will do. Thanks for the advice. My main use for this one will be for trying out new flavors. I figure dripping with an atty would be the way to go now that I'm tinkering with DIY juice. I've seen tons of good reviews for the HH.357 too, and I don't mind paying a little more for good hardware so I figured it was the way to go.

VapeDudes Banana Mama and Blue Honey. Man oh man, these are some tasty juices. A little strong on the throat hit (50/50 standard), but the taste is incredible. The Banana Mama has a wonderful banana and pineapple flavor, while the Blue Honey is just that, a great blend of blueberries and sweet honey. YUM! Edit : I tried them at 3.6v and the throat hit is perfect, and the vapor production is insane. I just tried the Strawberry Fields and it tastes like a fresh strawberry, even down to the green tip. Never again will I purchase an off-the-shelf juice.

To be fair tam... I was already converted to dripping by you and rixter and uma months ago. Lol. Just trying a new area of dripping. Lol!

I have already decided I'm purchasing one of these on the 20th. I held out for a good long while just to show my resolve! Lol.

A new study in the medical journal, The Lancet, revealed that E-Cigs work just as well as nicotine patches in helping people to quit smoking, Of those assigned to the e-cig with nicotine, 7.3 percent had abstained from smoking during the entire trial period. Of those assigned to nicotine patches, 5.8 percent had also abstained, and a little more than 4 percent of those assigned to the placebo e-cigs abstained. After smoking for 70 years, Ive now been using the E-Cig for one year with, surprisingly, no difficulty eliminating analogs. I still have two unopened cartons on hand with no desire to use them. My personal opinion why so many have difficulty in eliminating analogs is due to vaping the plethora of flavored juices. I never smoked strawberry or butter scotch Marlboros before, so why smoke these flavors now? Vaping only tobacco flavored juice, I receive not only the nicotine to satisfy the addiction but the taste of the analog, so closely resembling the analog, I doubt Id know the difference.

I've heard that if you swallow small amounts of saliva over a long period of time that you will eventually die.

Lots of fear mongering going on right now... like the story last week (on all the major news outlets) about the rising use of e-cigs by teenagers. Of course teens are using e-cigs... they use cigarettes and marijuanna too! The CDC did a similar study just a few months prior about the rising use by adults... but of course the media only jumped on the story about teens. The numbers are growing for EVERYONE because people are becoming more educated and e-cigs offer lots of benefits over tobacco...

Cigarettes cause cancer... Still sold in stores, Alcohol causes liver damage and has been the cause of many dui related deaths.... Still sold in stores, Vaping smells good, and allows people to quit cancer causing tobacco.... Let's attack that and try to ban them! What a backwards ***, ignorant society America has become... It's sad really.

After smoking 70 years and quitting you deserve mad props!!!!!! youre the man!

Almost double the amount of water, and almost half as much soda, coffee, tea...drink more water kerk
