Actually, that doesn't sound half bad if you leave off the smokey caramel after-taste. In the end, I guess it all depends on if you want to take the time and make the effort to sell your juices. If you do, I'd make a price list of how much a single flavor juice would cost and then a la carte each additional ingredient and bottle and the time it would take for you to put it together. Give them the price list and see if they still want that juice so badly. If they do, you make extra money. They may see the price list and go, "Hell no, I'm not paying that!" In which case you don't have to worry about it anymore. Take the compliment for what it is, I'm sure your juices smell wonderful.4 points

Vape catching fire

Sounds to me like your coils are not balanced (same resistance on each side), and cotton bursting into flames is almost unheard of, unless the cotton was extremely dry, which should not have happened unless your "few drops" didn't reach that particular piece of wick. Pull both coils, and trash them. Rebuild two new IDENTICAL coils of twice the resistance you are targeting... if you want 0.5 Ohm from your RDA, then you must build two, identical 1.0 Ohm coils. Ensure they are seated firmly, and the screws are TIGHT. Then, most importantly, use your Ohm reader (if you don't have one, you need to get one, yesterday) to read the resistance and check for shorts before placing it on your MOD and firing it. Test-fire the coils to ensure proper burn (inside > out) and tweak them with tweezers until you get the proper burn. Do this BEFORE you add wick and attempt to use it. Safety First... safety second... safety always!2 points -
Well, if nothing else, I'll be one of those who will be looking for someone to make juice for me via black market.2 points

Tam, I think you may have the best idea... I'm not opposed to making juice for anyone, just don't want to make it into a full-time gig, and definitely don't want to lose any money (or friends) over the deal I think I'll take your suggestion and make a price sheet (business-card size) and when someone asks me to make them a bottle of "whatever", I can hand them a card. If they're willing to pay at that point, I'll take the time to mix it up Hmmm... now... Since time is money, is $100 for 30ml too much? Reminds me of the classic line from Volunteers (Tom Hanks): Chung Mee: Opium is my business. The bridge mean more traffic. More traffic mean more money. More money mean more power. Lawrence Bourne III: Yeah, well, before I commit any of that to memory, would there be anything in this for me? Chung Mee: Speed is important in business. Time is money. Lawrence Bourne III: You said opium was money. Chung Mee: Money is Money. Lawrence Bourne III: Well then, what is time again?2 points -

I have come to the conclusion that 90% of the population need their driver's license revoked! Glad you weren't hurt, and very glad you weren't on the bike when it happened!!2 points -

Glad you're o.k. cany. I'm a land surveyor and do some transportation work. Oh the stories I can tell. I'd much rather work in the swamps and deal with alligators and snakes than these idiots on the road. I'm with you shen. I see people doing some really dumb $#! T around big rigs. They just don't realize that those things don't stop on a dime. And it's always gonna be the trucker's fault when something happens.1 point -

I agree with you earthling i only started doing diy liquid at first to save myself some cash, but i did have the idea to see if i could sell some here and there. And i found a customer so far, but hey who knows word of mouth could get out and i could easily get more. But if the whole selling my custom blends does not work then i just go back to mixing for me and the wife.1 point -

Turn signals? Vehicles still come with those?? Around here, stop signs are "optional", red-lights are "suggestions", speed-limits are "minimums", and apparently lane stripes are invisible (or people are yellow/white color-blind)! I'm still amazed that people must come to a complete stop before making a right-turn.... and why is it that people think 90 is a good speed on a rural road or residential area, but 55 is too fast for the Interstate's fast-lane (yet people in the slow lane doing 80 get "pushed")?1 point -
One Year Down!
tazl37 reacted to Earthling789 for a topic
A year ago today (3/31), I smoked my last cigar... I bought my starter-kit (a twin-pack eGo-T and Ce4 with charger, carry-case and 60ml of juice) for a whopping $72... yes, I still have the receipt..., and was determined to give it two weeks to see if I could kick the analog habit... I figured since I had just spent nearly two week's worth of tobacco money, I had better not waste it Well, I've come a long way from my eGo's and Ce4's... dozens of Kanger tanks, RTA's RDA's, MVP, Mech-mods, and now higher-end APV's... I've given many devices a try, and finally settled on my preferred set-ups of RTA's and IPV-minis / Cloupor-minis... but still cling to my AeroTanks, because you just can't kill them I've tried liters of e-liquids, spent hundreds of dollars in trial-and-error, and found my ADV's are as cheap as a decent fast-food meal every week... even cheaper now that I've found I can DIY and duplicate the flavor (and make it even better, too). I've spent a small fortune, but still less money on vaping than I would have spent supporting Big-Tobacco or the cigar cartels... I've paid forward as much as I've kept... made many, many friends here on this forum and in the local community of vapers... and helped to educate and convert dozens of ex-smokers to the healthier world of vaping! I feel good about myself, and have never felt better in my own body... I breathe better, have more energy, more stamina, and have actually lost 15-lbs over the past year (without even really trying)!!! I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone on this forum for all the help and encouragement you've given me when I was starting out, and when I was learning about something new. YOU have made all the difference in my road to becoming (and staying) analog-free for a whole year. I'm so glad I found this forum, and I'm proud to be a contributing member, helping others reach their first-year milestones!1 point -
