How can you vape that god forsaken juice????? :eek::eek::eek:
Because it was free and it taste like lucky charms marsmallows.

I mostly DIY and I have been vaping it for a couple days trying to figure out the flavor profile. Not as good as my crunch berry but its good enough that I want to clone it.

Now Milk Man on the other hand, is fuckin rank. Tried that and no..... Just no.

Nice. My Noisy Cricket hasnt come in yet, but Im very excited to get it in my hands. Should be here Thursday at latest. Cant wait for it...

But for now Im using my Knight mod. Got it last night in a Vapebox and its my very first mech mod, loving it so far. Finally got to put some coils in it that were made for this. Before I was just using some higher resistance coils I made for my Mini Volt.

In the Knight now is just a standard Dual 24ga Kanthal build, 7 wraps, 2mm ID, coming in between 0.22 and 0.25, depending which reader you wanna believe lol. (tested 0.22 on coil master ohm reader, 0.24 on my RX200, and 0.25 on my coil master 521 Tab). Fresh VTC4 @ 4.2 volts. Hitting pretty nicely, not too warm (not warm enough in fact).

Juice is Ice Cream Donuts "Bedrock" by Ruthless Vapor. Fucking really good shit. For real, one of the best juices Ive had. Not an ADV cuz its pretty sweet and rich, but damn its good.

@StereoFreeze i have a feeling this thing just replaced my cuboid setup for day to day. havnt used it long enough to know how it goes for days at a time, but so far its holding up well. it came with .35ish coils and the battery lasted me almost a full day. if i build a .5 and it lasts longer than a day its prolly my goto from now on.

@Mythical_OD thursday is going to be a great day dude. im excited for you. this thing is worth every agonizing second i waited for it (took a week from agreeing to trade, to actually having time to meet up and do it. longest week ever).

@Hank F. Spankman i got this smpl mod with a mutation x2 deck that has a tugboat slamcap on it. not sure how that compares to the v2, but i find its more of a cloud chucker. today is a full flavor day so i brought the sapor out with me :)

MCR303 & MCR101SL 18500
2m5fds5.jpg

I know you have probably moved on with the MCR 303, but youre the first person that Ive seen on any US forums that actually has one.

I have a couple MCR 101SL and that atty has tempted me for a long time.

How is the vape, I know they have a 2mm air hole now and should probably be fine. ITs so purdy

No moving on from the 303, I actually have a couple of the newer versions too, but I still like the original, non-delrin top cap design. No difference in vape quality though, its purely aesthetic.

1.5mm airhole top cap on the left and standard 1mm on right. You can get it with a 2mm airhole, but for me, even the 1.5mm is borderline too open.

My favorite genisis tank to date, and also using the 101SL with it. I have a hellfire micro mega now that I really like as well, but I'm still more familiar with the 303 so its still easier to build and use for me at the moment.

BTW, If you are on the fence, MCR still has the Flash sale going for the MkII at 30GBP each, its an absolute steal.
As for being the only one on US forums, maybe here, but there are plenty of 303 owners on other US forums.

Shoot, that ELA brings back some great memories. I loved it, but it did not love me.

Thanks for the info. I saw that the MCR 303 can be set up with cotton. I have never had much luck with Genesis builds. My hands are bad and not worth the pain.

I love my MCRs and the SLs would look so nice with that on top.
Here is my grey media blasted one.

I think the MCR303 wick hole is too narrow for cotton and the chamber itself has very little clearance due to off center placement on the opening on the top cap.

If your hands are bad, try using steel cable and just wrap the tip with oxidized mesh. Then just make a 2mm spaced coil with any coiling tool, and twist in your wick. The coil will be smaller than the wrapped cable, but as you slowly twist it in, the coils will automatically wrap evenly around the wick. Most of the time I'm good to go with only a few pulses, I actually don't remember the last time I struggled with a hot spot, let alone have one at all.

Personally, I think this would be easier than micro-coils and cotton since your build will last months before needing to change, whereas cotton builds need to be changed more frequently.

Media blast looks really nice, how do you like the Taifun?
Nice sig btw, what mech is the one that has the "made in Germany" etching?

Heres one I took a while ago ;)

I see a PAPs v4, nice. I just have a couple of the switches. Ive never heard of the Barjavel MODS, I will have to look that one up.

That one with made in Germany is the Taifun Skarabaus/ Scarab
Its a semi-mech, it has some sort of board inside, not really sure, but its not regulated. It can use all battery sizes by adding a segment or removing, it just screws shorter or longer. 23mm

Really like the Taifun GSII and the GSL, set up is similar to the Flash-e-vapor.
