I'm really liking this tank but man does it suck juice. Makes my Tfv look like an econo tank. No way I'm running all 4 of these together. If I did I would have to put a weekly V3 order in just to keep up.

DIY is the answer you seek. It helps as well for vapocolypse prepping.

Bro get yourself a coil master coil V2 kit it has everything you need. Buy some premade wire SS Clapton from advancedvapesupply and build two 2.5 to 3mm ID 5 wrap each that's will get you going. Also do the Scottish roll when making your wick out of cotton.


I'll have to check these vids out later! Thanks ^.^

A friend liked Boreas but has a vtc mini so he is searching for a 22mm tank like it.
I know the aromizer, but are there any others that he should look at that I'm not thinking of? Flavor over cloud factory.

Aromizer dry hits, is that still a thing? Or people just weren't wicking it correctly?

I did get a good start on rebuilding before I had to look at DIY.
I'm almost scared to DIY. I'm a professional bartender by trade. I just love people and mixing drinks. I know if I get into mixing juices I'll just go way overbaord.

Haven't tried the Merlin yet, but the Alleria by Augvape is insanely flavorful.

As was said, the Alleria is supposed to be great. I know I was reading a lot of people saying they got very dull flavor with the Aromamizer. I'm keen to my Diablo clones, they're simple and nice.

Woohoo! Yeah, I just got this bitch up and running. I was so pissed at my first attempt that I put it back in the box. It just wasn't sitting well with me. So, after dinner I decided to give it another shot. Now I'm chucking clouds bro. Lol. I got a dual Notch setup, coming in at .15 and I'm running her at 50w and 500f in tc mode on my G2. Flavor and clouds are real nice. Can't wait to throw a Raymo2u coil in this bad boy.

Yay!! Glad you got it working!!

I just checked FT and only 2 items aren't ready to ship. (It was a BIG 29 item order)

I hate waiting... But I know I'll be super happy once all my shit gets here. After all, if I have any problems the people here will have me fixed up in not time!

So true this really is a great group. My favorite vaping forum by far.

I was the same way when I did DIY! Though I'm not a bartender, but I am a great cook! I would get invited to parties by people I didn't even know so I'd bring one of my pies! (They tasted them at the party I was at)

I have had quite a few half joking/half serious marriage proposals after people had my baked goods. LMFAO

If i had a dollar for every time I filmed a goblin mini build to try to upload
That's one of my got-to tanks! I love that one.
He said don't worry Pop you always find a way. Lol
That right there is motivation. Good kid. Priceless moment..

I've been using the Merlin on my vtc mini all day today. Not one leak, not a single dry hit. I did have a learning curve, but only took 2 tries.I'm getting great flavor.

Can you make a Raspberry/Apple Pie? If so you may have another proposal on the way. Lmao.

So FT finally shipped my boreas out..yayy!!! On the shipping I selected the usps epacket that said 6 to 9 days in transit for an additional 22 cents.. I wonder if it will really get here that quick. Anyone have any experience with the usps epacket???

People may preorder stuff that takes that long but if it's a regular item thats ready in a day to 5, once it ships, it's within 2 weeks and a lot of times just over 1 week.

I guess people can have their order screwed up or something but I've ordered tons of stuff over the years and have never had a problem with them or china shipping.

It can take longer to get to my house in los Angeles from either San Francisco or Los Angeles main hub than it does from china to USA.

Also, a tip, if you have a bunch of ships next day stuff and a some ships in 5 day things you can ask them to split the shipment and they will send what's ready.

I just ordered another Boreas from STS. They are a good bit more expensive, but the quicker shipping and the customer service make it worth it. Plus Rob is a really cool guy. I texted him at 2am asking if he had any discount codes to use and he got back to me immediately and gave me one lol.

Got a black Boreas, a gold AFC ring for it, and preordered a black Merlin to boot.

About 3-4 days then it will sit in its first US stop for 3 or so days, sometimes 2. Then it's up to usps carriers from there.

Longest FT shipment for me has been 2.5 weeks but usually under 2 from sent date to my door.
My longest FT shipment was about 3 months. Seriously.

I've also got a merlin on the way from STS. Robert is a very cool guy. I have zero problems paying a couple bucks more to get it from him than china.

I have heard the horror stories, just hasn't happened to me and I've probably put 100 orders in with them.

Was that 3 months to ship out? Pre order?
Or it was 3 months in shipping? Stuck in US customs?

3 months in shipping. Probably stuck under the vending machines at the Chicago customs hub for a couple weeks or something haha. It shipped from FT right away, but tracking reported it leaving china and that's it for months. I literally both gave up and then forgot about it (it wasn't an expensive order) and then 3 months later there it was at the door. If that package could talk...

Yeah, everything is usually quick and efficient until it hits USPS' hands. They usually ship out plus or minus one day from their estimated ship date on the product and China post gets it on the plane within a day or two.

My horror story (no matter where I order from) usually starts once it gets in the hands of the PO down the street. I swear they could replace the entire staff with monkey's and have less lost packages and more timely deliveries:bingo:=:vapemail:

Well, I haven't been told that I can't yet. :giggle:

When I asked Huck if I could link it in the Merlin thread, she said, "I will!" So others can, but that didn't answer my question if I could :)

So, hey, other members, please let people know in the threads you hang out in, and on social media.
