Thanks. It's just a simple fused clapton 3mm ID Ni80 hmmm maybe I should try a 2.5mm
That's interesting, I have a 26g+36g Alien, 5 wraps on 3mm id and I still find it to have slightly more af wide open than the GT3. You're right, going to a 2.5 will help a bit.

Either way, glad you're liking it.

Dvarw 22mm buy or pass have in cart but is it worth it and yes its the original and I know clones are less but I refuse to put money into not seeing my orders. or getting a refund back .. I gave about that much in orders im probably never going to see from China. Between them shipping my stuff back from customs and over 2 mths waiting I refuse to throw money out of the country.

Was hoping to have vape mail. Maybe tomorrow. Seems usps are a bunch of lying cunts. Already supposed to get my diy flavors fri or sat, delayed til monday. Monday rolled around, half the stuff diverted to oddball towns. Supposed to be delivered tuesday. So yesterday rolls around, nothing. Even though it said out for delivery. Then I get some b.s. message that says at around 6p they attempted to deliver but couldn't access the location. Bullshit, I was outside when they said they tried to deliver and no mail vehicle came around. They never deliver usps that late in my area. Maybe by around 2 or 2:30p at the latest. Cocksmokers. Just sayin lol.

Th Ironsmith finally came! So far, it seems solid. The magnetic fire button is nice, but has a very short throw. The bottle system isn't my favorite, but nothing that is a deal breaker and has a nice silicone bottle that isn't too hard or too soft. It hits nice, not as hard as my kronigs but harder than my spades. Threading on the battery cap is nice and smooth. It feels great in the hand. It is a little smaller than I thought it would be, which is a pleasant surprise. So far I like it. I still need to run it a while to make a final judgment though.

Here are a couple quick pics. I'll post better ones later.

My flavors came in finally. Well most of them. I put them all together for the pic, so there's river supply, bcf, wizard labs and diyvs in there (only 2 bottles from them). Unfortunately I ordered 2 (two, dos, etc) 4oz bottles of banana cream from wizard. Someone skipped numbers day and only sent me one. Knew it couldn't just go smoothly lol. Meh, at least I have the one in the meantime, goes in my adv recipe so yea I noticed.

Got in my first order of Molicel batts. From 18650batterystore on a sale of the day for $3.99/ea. :)

View attachment 176377

They are an official distributor of these, so seemed like a good place to get 'em.
I think you'll like them. Have had mine several months now, seem to be doing well. At first I was a bit concerned I'd lose some run time trading off from the 3000mah like the 30q's and vtc6's but in reality if it has been less vape time it's not overly noticeable. Even down lower around 70w on dual 18650's. And they handle over 100w just fine (within reason) without feeling that sag like I do from the other 15a batteries.

Yeah, I just needed to get some good new batts as some of my older ones are losing capacity bigtime.
I don't vape over about 40W and the only stuff doing below like 0.28 are all regulated mods. But, for the sale price, I couldn't resist. :D

Whatcha making with the cap brcc?

Sent from my Mi 9T using Tapatalk
I didn't particularly care for it when I SFT'd it about a year ago. I can find my little 10ml bottle of it so I got more. People at flavor stores rate that flavor highly and I never understood why. It didn't really taste like blue anything to me. I thought I'd give it another chance and plan to use it firstly with CAP Pink Lemonade. Maybe it sucks on its own but plays nicely with others? I dunno..

Yeah when I got into diy I was trying to clone the happy ends blue cotton candy from sad boy which definitely has cap brcc in it but anytime I mess with it I get a plastic off note

Haven't tried the flavored cotton candies much, lots of people like the blue raz and stuff. I will say though just a plain authentic cotton candy proves to be a massive pain in my ass. So far I've tried tfa cotton candy, tfa cc circus, fw cotton candy, flavorah cotton candy, purilum cotton candy. In the last order picked up Loranns county fair cotton candy to try.

Trying to come up with something similar to vapewild's 'its so fluffy' cotton candy. My mom's favorite flavor and they're out of business now. They were considered by many to be a budget juice co but they did a decent job with cotton candy. Smelled and tasted just like the kind of cotton candy you get from a fair or circus or amusement park. That sugary sweet with the caramelized flavor of cooked sugar. Most flavorings I've tried have been a swing and a miss.

Flavorah and tfa's cc are probably the closest but still something's off. The smell is kind of there but the flavor's lacking and it's almost muted. Most just suggest tfa cc at some magic % but hasn't worked out. I'm guessing it was something so simple they mixed that it's going to be like duh, why didn't I think of that. And it was around for years so not a brand new flavor. Pretty sure they mixed it with something else, most cc flavorings are clear and result in clear juice. Theirs was like a faint pinkish color and would darken some to a deeper pink/tan color with time. My guess would be some sort of cream maybe or bakery flavor to carry the cotton candy. Frustrates me to no end. lol

Maybe marshmallow along with the cotton candy?

Sure wished they sold the yellow tops separately.

That really is goofy isn't it? I can't believe there aren't third party ones available either. It's a quality piece. Some polished exotic wood and some resin and or acrylic ones would be awesome. Although a pain to make I'm sure. Especially for wood.

Possibly. Don't think I have the marshmallow quite down yet, even in lower percentages like .75-1% I get a sort of dry mouthfeel. Using tfa and cap. Maybe I'm using shitty marshmallows.

I haven't tried either of those, so can't say. I like FA the best as just a regular marshmallow, like I'd use for sweetener. I have FW also, but it's so weak you have to use a ridiculous amount of it to even tell it's there.

I think if I were trying for a realistic cotton candy flavor, I might also add about 0.35% to 0.5% of a Tutti Frutti or Rainbow Drops flavor. Tutti Frutti would be better. I bet that would get rid of the dryness you're talking about, too. (Kind of a left-field suggestion, I guess. I may be totally off base with this. I'd love to try it next time I mix, but that's going to be a while.)

Is it just a cotton candy flavor you are after? Sorry haven't read through the whole thread. But for sweet I use Rick's Sugar Daddy. Like Nada though, I like the FA cotton candy best. But maybe if you added a little Sugar Daddy to that.......??

Sunday delivery I didn't even know about until I checked the tracker.

Some really old school RDAs and 510 drip tips, DIRT cheap. I think the attys were a buck and the drip tips were a quarter. Almost anything's worth that.

Some Woto Freak shows and Trolls. And a SS Rebirth for 10. I already had a black one which is an awesome flavor RDA.

Was hoping to have vape mail. Maybe tomorrow. Seems usps are a bunch of lying cunts.
I hate UPS. Vaporesso sent me an RDA that I didn't know about. UPS showed up and wanted $25 for some customs fee. At the time I didn't even know what the delivery was. I tried to give him cash. He said nope, check or money order. I didn't have any checks and the nearest money order is an hour away.

My plan was to pick it up at their station while I ran to town for groceries. I should've looked at their store hours because I was there at 9AM and they didn't open until 3:30 PM. I was pissed. I ended up leaving the F'n money order in town with someone I trusted. They picked it up for me, then I had to meet them half way to get my package.

Their policies are a joke. I've never had to go through so much trouble to get a package. I told the Vaporesso rep to NEVER use UPS again. They're supposedly going to make it up to me but I haven't heard from them in a while.


Separate story: I went outside the other day to find a box on my porch. UPS just left it there. I thought it was mine from another order. I cut it open and here it was a pair of Men's Timberland Boots. I took a look but taped it back up. If they come asking, I'll give it back of course. Maybe I should call them? They're a $178 pair of boots. The name on the box doesn't ring a bell. I really should've checked but I'm not in the habit of doing that. I just open my boxes. Any advice?

If I was waiting on a pair of $178 pair of boots I'd certainly appreciate someone making the effort to get them delivered properly. Opening the package isn't a big deal, I don't look at most of the shipping details on mine, I just dive in.

Now if those boots are size 12 on the other hand....?

Good luck with it

Lol they really are a size 12. I feel bad for the guy waiting on his new kicks. The tracking probably shows delivered so he's wondering what's going on. I'll call UPS tommorow I guess. Their website is useless. I made a complaint on there and they finally responded a whole 2 and a half months later last time. I think their phone number is all automated too..

Legally it is unsolicited merchandise. I'm not suggesting you keep it. All I'm saying is it within your rights legally to do so.
