  1. That's not Sub Ohming, that is called Macro Ohming. This is not for cloud chasing, this is what caused the last hurricane in the Gulf! LMAO
  2. I build my own coils. I have a RDA set up with a single coil. I will drip a few drops and test the flavor. If it is not right I will rewick it adjust the mix and do it again. Then when it is how I like it, I will fill a tank to test over time.
  3. LMAO I would have to post it on the Suppliers Board.
  4. Although adding flavors like that get you started. You will always get your best flavor from doing it from scratch. This way you can add flavors by the drop. you will have failures, but that is part of the learning curve for DIY. Use a mixing calculator so you can save your recipes. You will not ever get the same mix twice if you don't keep record and that is the best way. Go to www.wizardlabs.us and look at the flavor selection and stick with FA (Flavor Apprentice) Stay away from Loranns, Loranns adds food coloring and unless you are looking for Candy like flavors, they will not do. Because, I am someone that sells liquid, I keep my recipes close to me. It truly is an art and the more time you put into it, the better your out comes will be. Start out simple 1 flavor at a time don't get fancy to start. As you progress into multiple flavors combos you will be singing the DIY song.
  5. Yes they can... I try and stay between 20-25%. Some flavors that are really strong like banana and tobaccos can be less, but 20-25% is the best starting point. You can also add to many different flavors to a juice and have it come out "muddy" as I call it.
  6. That is a cool Idea Bird Dog. I was thinking of that, but did not know what it was called. LOL That paint shaker would sure do the trick I may look into one of those myself.
  7. Thank you, I'm a big supporter of DIY and feel this could help others.
  8. One question that seems to pop up a lot is What Supplies do I need to get started doing my own juice? I have been doing DIY Juice for many years and have had many trial and error experiences. I hope this quick guide will help anyone looking to start DIY Juice get the supplies they need to be successful. To get started you will want: My go to for DIY Flavors and the rest of what is listed here is http://www.wizardlabs.us Test your flavor mixes in small batches 5 to 10ml samples Basic Must Haves: 1ml, 5ml,10ml blunt syringes at least 2 of each (Put scotch tape over the measuring markings or tey will ware off quickly) 30 ml Glass Dropper Bottles any color (I use Cobalt blue) (For holding small amounts of Bases PG, VG, Nic strengths) Droppers for Flavor bottles (Out of Stock)(Wizard Labs sells them to fit the flavor bottles they sell) (I have some small dram bottles I use that came with dropper tops) This is where I ordered my bottles from: http://www.specialty...assvialsmi.aspx 10ml, 25ml glass graduated cylinders (I prefer glass so it don't absorb flavors) Glass Funnel At least 1 50ml Beaker 1-2 Volumetric Flasks 50ml and 100ml PG/VG Make sure it is food grade or medical grade not industrial grade. What they sell on Wizard labs will do to start with. http://www.bulkapothecary.com/ The more VG you have in your mix the weaker the flavor but more vapor. VG, If you have say 10/90 mix it will take a lot more flavoring to get it up to taste. I would not recommend doing high vg to start it can get costly for flavor. Trade off for less VG is less vapor production. Straight PG gives vapor but dissipates quick. don't less than a 90/10 mix. You will want a Juice calculator as well. There are two that seem to be popular eJuice me up and LiqMix Hope this helps get you started on your Journey to doing DIY E-liquid.

  10. I concur, Very clean build Josh. You have really come a long way in a few months.
  11. Wouldn't you still have to epoxy it in to keep from having to drill holes? I would think that added holes and screws would take away from the looks. I like the clean look on the outside.
  12. To bad they don't make mounting plates for the charging boards. Nice work Proetus!
  13. Right now I have a Trust Fire TR-001 that has been working well. I'm planning on getting a XTAR VP1 or VP2 to replace it though.
  14. That is Dangerous! You should always make all your coils the same when doing multiple coil builds! You are at high risk of having it blow up. It may work at the moment, but you skirting a disaster.
  15. I was looking at them before I posted. If you already own one then by all means give it try. I have 2 large ultrasonic cleaners and really don't see a reason to buy a tumbler. Let us know how it works out.
  16. The Black Raspberry as I said, came from a different flavor company than others I use. It kind a sucks because I had to order it by the quart. Back when I had my B&M and using their flavorings I could go to the factory and get samples. It has obviously changed and not like it was when I was using it at the B&M. If you steep it a week and it is still flavorless, I will replace it for free using a different flavoring. I will then scrap it as a e-liquid flavoring. I don't want to put out any flavor that is tasteless or takes more than a week of aging. I know my wife can use it to make Rock Candy so it won't be wasted. LOL
  17. Most is good out of the box but steeping will only help. I want them vapable out of the box yet if they steep (age) and get better that great. I had not used this one flavor company since I had my B&M open. I didn't think the flavors would have changed that much, but I guess they have.
  18. LOL I was going to place to order for the other Blueberry flavors for you to test Sunday, I think I will add Black Raspberry to that order as well.
  19. That is also a flavor from a different flavoring company and if it is tasteless, I want to know. There are other places I can get it from and I will just not use it again.
  20. No flavor in the Black Raspberry? That's not good. Keep me posted on that please.
  21. There are so many options out there. I'm sure if posted your price range that it may help in pin pointing a MOD. Then you want to ask yourself if flashy or quality is the most important. Provari is about the best you can get for a round style MOD, but not what I would call flashy...
  22. LOL Baggies are your friend. Anyone that has ordered juice and has had a leaky bottle, knows. I always double bag the juice.
