@VapeMama Is cup o'joe a strong coffee flavor? I drink coffee in the morning but haven't made any coffee juice yet. I'm not a fan of strong coffee flavors (that's why I'm asking). I prefer Folgers to Starbucks for example. I received some tiramisu juice from a friend and the coffee was too strong by covering up all the other flavors so I set it on the shelf and haven't touched it. If you have suggestions I'd welcome them. Thanks

Let me know how it turns out please I have a shopping cart full of stuff waiting for a payday with wizard labs. I like that you can get a bunch of different flavor vendors all in one place there.

Welcome and thank you for your Service!

@Earthling789 Thanks I'll give it a go. I'll try the juicy orange first. There's a brand of chocolate orange jell rings that the company sells seasonally every Christmas that I'm going for...Christmas flavor year round .... Chocolate Gummy Bears... Now, There's a thought I'll have to find some of that gummy candy flavoring!

@cany It's a generic tank based on a smoka mini RDA that I can't find anywhere So I found these on FT, and have the red, blue and silver. I did drill out the air holes to make it bigger with a 5/64 bit and that made it draw better, they're aluminum so it was really quick and easy. . Here it the blue one: https://www.fasttech.com/p/1395705 @spydreThanks She'll be ok (phew) her horse just kicked out and tried to cave in her chest...She's got a badly bruised breast and sternum and a cracked rib.

@canyIn the RDA on the mini yes. Sorry I was slow my sister got hurt and I had to go down south to take care of things and didn't take my computer. @spydre Sorry I'm slow to respond yes to both. Just like regular mods you click 5 times for on/off and yes you can lock the wattage. One thing I learned the hard way though is re-lock the wattage right after you switch out the battery. It doesn't have a self-powered memory. I throw mine in my purse pocket all the time.No leaks, no problems.

My neighbor gave me this recipe and I tried hers and it was smooth,sweet and rich.( I'm not sure if it's her personal creation or if she got it somewhere else ) I haven't made it yet I'm waiting on my dragon fruit to arrive. She said to let it steep a couple of days and shake often. Start with your favorite PG/VG base: All flavors are TFA 6% Blueberry or Cherry 6% Dragon-fruit 3% Butter or Butter cream 4% Cheesecake 2% Sweet Cream up to 2% Sweetener

@Earthling789 Thanks for the hint I made a Chocolate Raspberry Cordial that I believe you posted a while ago and it was great! I'll get the PB DX next time. I used Blood Orange in one and it was a bit much do you have a orange you really like? I don't want an ice creamy type flavor, I want Christmas candy dark chocolate dipped orange jelled flavor...The juice with the blood orange was ok but I know it can be loads better...Thanks in advance

Thanks all, Sorry I didn't respond sooner but my sister was hurt badly by one of her horses and I was dealing with that and I just got back into town. Thanks @Chris @FXRich and @Earthling789 , I figured it was them being overly cautious. However I talked to another LEO friend and they're already doing stings in Dallas trying to catch under-age sales. So I guess in the long run they're just being smart. @spydre I know what you mean I was buying cigarettes at age 9 by just saying my mom sent me to the store for them...The good old days. I couldn't be hypocritical either. I know minors can buy vape gear on ebay by using a one time sign in code. My son's wife's little brother did that until their folks found out and took away his internet access. All he needed was a "Credit" card number. He bought the generic visa gift cards and used them and had it mailed to a friends house. I can't see how they're really going to regulate mail orders from private sellers on ebay. Good Question! One place (vape wild)where I had been buying juice from actually asked for my b-date and the last four digits of my social security number. Like I'm stupid enough to give out that information That's enough for ID theft by a dishonest employee They'd have all they need to steal my bank account or credit card Not Happening (end rant). Anyway...I called them let them know they lost a customer and that they're going to loose a lot more if they keep that up. It really upset me because they're the one that has 2 of my favorite chocolate flavor juices I haven't been able to duplicate properly yet. (Sorry Chris but VT doesn't have Chocolate in the juice list)

Hi I used all TFA flavors for 30ml bottle Your favorite base base 15% Double Dark Chocolate 8% Peanut Butter 4% Bavarian Cream Plus a few drops of TFA sweetener ( I added it a couple of days ago to balance it out)

I prefer the dark double chocolate instead of the clear double chocolate it just tastes richer and truer to real chocolate. I haven't tried the milk chocolate because I prefer dark. I made some peanut butter cup (15ml) and learned the hard way that a little PB goes a long way so be careful with it. I wound up putting it in a bigger bottle (30ml) and adding all the ingredients except the PB to get it to balance out. it turned out decent after that. I still think it needs to be cut back a bit more next batch but at least I didn't have to toss it like I did with a different juice (PHEW) I hate to waste

Does anyone know if it's "illegal"/ against the new "regs" if a kid (15) comes into a B&M with a parent. Like on a quick stop to say hi to a friend who works there or while their parent grabs a box of coils for example? One of our local B&M's now has this on their door...or are they just being over-reactionary to not fully understanding the new rules? I mean a kid can go into a bar and sit as long as it's not at the actual bar itself and the establishment serves food and/or non-alcohol beverages....

It's actually a lot of fun the RDA's tiny coils are 2.4 ohm and the mini is 10W so it works great together. I got 100 prewicked coils for $1.50 from FT but I got some unwicked coils as well and they're not hard to run bacon cotton through. I was shocked how easy it was. It has really good flavor. I was amazed. The pico comes in both 75 and 100 watts depending on which you want.

I was at a local B&M that also does very well online and was talking to one of the owners. He said that they're going to be cutting out some of their flavors that aren't big sellers to limit the number of applications they'll have to make and holding "workshops" for people who want to learn to build or DYI before the stuff really hits the fan in Feb. (He's doing this by word of mouth and in store notices) Although he can't and won't be touching anything and it's more of an educational process. I hope he's not going to get in trouble for it. On the flip side though, it's really nothing different than watching a youtube video just live.I have to respect his motivation to help people stay off analogs.( I also think it's brilliant because I'm sure he'll have the FDA fear factor of losing the right to vape and have new stuff to sell his stock.) I know I won't be shopping online if I have to send a picture of myself holding my ID to anyone. I'm stocking up and praying for a reprieve.

Here's a picture of my pico with an eleaf ijust 2 5ml tank that I use quite a bit. It has pretty good airflow and also you can buy or build coils for it.

Hi I really like my eleaf 60W TC it has plenty of power and I love you can change both the batteries and the side panels depending on your mood (there's black, blue, white, gray and a nice turquoise colors I hope they come out with a red set soon and then I'll be in hog heaven I'm not a fan of those silicone covers so this works great for me. I have a pico that I also love and now they've come out with the pico mega that goes to 100W with upgradable firmware it's a great little mod. I can't really recommend a tank but tell you what I like and why... the Melo III that comes with the pico has great airflow when it's fully open (I love a lot of air) Though, I really do like my Bellus it has decent but not enormous amounts of airflow, I find it's the best for fruit flavors but it is an RTA. I gave away my nautilus tank because it was too restrictive for me. I switched to the Avocado so I can build my coils and change up juices easily by re-wicking it was the most economical for me. I have to admit it's been quite an adventure but well worth it. (I did but some premade coils too and it's a snap to change them out and the flavor is great) I hope that might have helped a little, here's a picture ...from left to right Bellus tank, eleaf 60's in white and teal, mini istick 10W with tiny RDA and Melo III tank (Isn't that mini istick 10W cute..impulse buy but I have to admit I LOVE it for tasting my juices and it has great flavor)

@jasonculp@FXRich@Adversarious1 Hi and no worries! I learn a lot reading all of your posts and I'm sure I haven't made a stupid mistake because of them I'm still fairly new to vaping and appreciate any advice I can get and you're all very generous with yours. Thanks tons!

I'll do that, thanks My favorite vapes are full of chocolate and either mint or strawberry or cherry. Though... I have just gotten some Capella's Choc. Raspberry Flavoring and I was going to make some tonight for the weekend...I have a sweet tooth, but I don't really like super sweet candy like fruits either... I like them to taste like Dark Chocolate dipped real fruit if that makes sense.

I just went through that too. I ordered a back up eleaf 60W mod and a couple of pokemon stuffed toy things for my grand-kiddo and it took 6 weeks it went through Singapore for some reason...But I saved a fortune....(about $40) I read on FT that sometimes they ship in plain packaging because they can buy in bulk without the vendor packing costs the site says:" Package:Plain: product manufacturers do not provide any outer packaging. This saves production and shipping costs so you can enjoy low prices. For protection of the product, FastTech adds a protective sleeve when necessary." Maybe that's what they did...I got some eleaf coils that way on the cheap

Hi @jasonculp Thanks so much for the advice but yes you're speaking over my head when you get going my problem is I put a newly charged battery in at 5am and by 2ish it's flashing at me. Whereas before I could go all day and into the next morning before I'd have to pop in a new battery. I ordered a couple of the the brown Lg Hg2 Inr 18650 hg2 20a 3000mah instead of the red HE2's that I have been using hopefully they'll be better. If not I'll try getting the Samsung 30Q you're recommending. I think I just maybe have been vaping more than normal I don't know but I'll figure it out. Thanks guys for all your help

Thanks, I do have 4 batteries for each mod two are rotated and 2 are back ups. Yes I label them and they're married to the device. I also rotate their position each time I charge them in the charger. I'm thinking I just got a bad batch from Amazon. Thanks for the advice though. Thanks again, I generally vape at around 25-30 W so I didn't think I was putting much strain on the batteries.

@FXRich Hi and thanks, I don't go below 0.2ohms except the one time I goofed when I was learning to build my coils and I ripped them out quickly thanks to the great advice I got here. I usually build single 0.3ohm or 0.5 ohm coils for my Avocado on the 60W TC and I have .2 coils for my pico's ijust 2 and melo III tanks (they are the same coils that came with the tanks). It seems that they don't stay charged as long as they used to.... maybe I'm vaping more because I'm stressed and just don't realize it. Thanks.

Hey all! I've been using LG HE2 18650 2500mAh 20A 3.7v Rechargeables. in my eleaf 60W and my eleaf Pico since May. Should they be wearing out already? I charge them in a Nitecore 2 slot battery charger never in the mod. I alternate them one charging one in use. How often should I be buying new batteries? I was thinking about getting the brown LG's next or should I be looking at something else? Thanks for any input... Edna

Sounds delicious! What type of sweetener do you use? Is it the EM or just the regular sweetener? I have some TFA sweetener but never know how much to add so I have been adding a couple of drops each time I taste a juice if it's not sweet enough. Any advice would be most appreciated.

Welcome! I just started DYI as well and I have gotten a lot of wonderful advice from the folks here. Good luck on your efforts
