What did you do today that is vape related?

[nadalama]

That's what I was thinking too. There's nothing on their websites right now, which you'd think they would do if they were closed.

I'm down to about 65mls of Nic.

I hope you are able to order some today.

@MrMeowgi would know for sure, but I haven't heard of non-essential businesses being closed in NC. MFS is in Charlotte, and carries nicotine, it's just more expensive than LNW. I have a shipment of PG and VG on the way via UPS Ground from Heartland in OK.

If you plan to order from anyplace in FL, I'd get that done right away. I expect they will be one of the next states to shut everything down. Fully expect the virus to spread exponentially there after last week's throngs from all over the country hanging out at the beaches like a bunch of stupid fools.

 

[Pastorfuzz]

Yeah, yeah, I know!!! I'm not the only one to have said this before but this time is different. I got a bike run coming up next month if it's not cancelled. Will be gone for a week and I'm focusing on putting my FU funds towards that. Over this past year, I've amassed plenty of mods and extra tanks to carry me for quite some time. I only wanted a squonk to try out the Wasp Nano @SnapDragon NY sent me. So in reality, it's all Snap's fault helping me to spend my dough...

Squonks work great on a ride. They wont leak in your pocket. it's what i use.

 

[The Cromwell]

Wasn't sure where to post this.

Is there a thread about which, if any, vape suppliers have shut down or have restrictions? If not, can we get one and have it stickied somewhere?

I was thinking about element vape, river supply and bull city flavors.

Unfortunately look for places like those to be deemed non essential if their home state enacts non essential retail shutdown orders as many will and if this gets bad enough it may be a federal thing. Eventually.

Squonks are the only thing I use for out and about.

 

[The Cromwell]

Liters? Damn that's a lot of juice

Ahh but we Vanilla Custard aficionados are like that
I tend to keep 500-600 ml mixed.

 

[DrVapenstein]

yeah I just find it easier to make a bunch of 240ml bottles once I have 6 or more empties as opposed to making just a couple bottles at a time

I use 120's but same principle.

 

[The Cromwell]

15 min start to finish including cleanup to mix 3 120 ml bottles of juice.

 

[Just Frank]

Did any of you get any of get any of those Keys Stacked RTAs from MFS? They were only like five bucks.

I set one up today with 26ga SS round wire. I made both coils 6 wraps around a 3mm jig. Vaping away at 45W and I'm impressed. I can take pretty long drags no problem (wicking like a champion) and the flavor is really good. These have the widest chimney I've ever seen on a RTA. Looking down from the top looks like some of my RDAs.

I got three of them, awesome deal for a really good RTA.

 

[Rhianne]

You probably enabled him just in time! It was a public service! You're a hero!

And you’re not too shabby as an enabler yourself. You got me thinking about breaking out my Cut again, and emptying that juice out of the bottle!!

 

[Rhianne]

just mixed up a couple liters of my vanilla custard because I was down to my last 2 bottles

What flavors did you use? Vanilla Custard is my main mix. But I also use it as a base for adding other flavors.

 

[Rhianne]

Liters? Damn that's a lot of juice

I had to read that twice!! Lol

 

[Rhianne]

yeah vaping modern rtas and drippers at 75-85w sure blows through the juice compared to 24mg on 306s and 510s back in the day when a 30ml bottle would last you a while
pretty sure I can vape 30ml in an afternoon now no problem

The good ole days when Evods were the most.

I’m still in shock that people were on the beaches like that! What the hell were they thinking?

Cleaned these two today... the grip was a bit dingy looking so took some Flitz to it.

Overlord was a simple wipe the bevel

I’m using Kings Custard one shots, but the Cap VC is good too. I’ve mixed Crom’s Custard, but I liked it with a bit of LB Vanilla Cream Tobacco. Yep, I like tobacco!

I usually never mix with custards. I just got TFA VC V2 though. I mixed it with V1 and both TFA Straw, and Ripe. It tastes pretty good but can get better.

 

[Smigo]

15 min start to finish including cleanup to mix 3 120 ml bottles of juice.

Takes me 15 minutes to decide and pick which flavours I want to use.
I mixed up 4 x 100 mls today and tried a Mango Berry mix that had been steeping away for a month. Am happy with how it turned out.
I think at a rough guess I spent an hour making them. I dont mind though taking my time.

 

[SteveS45]

I vaped, mixed a bottle of e-Liquid and searched for my MOD most of the day because I kept losing the freaking thing~! Entertainment on the cheap? LMFAO

 

[AndriaD]

Heartland Vapes is in OK, and unless Vaperstek moved, they are, too. PG, VG and nic stuff.

Just got this in email from Vaperstek:

First and foremost, we hope that you and your family are all healthy and well. We understand that the daily cascade of information surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19) is leaving a lot of us drenched in uncertainty. We wanted take a moment to give you an update on our current business status, and remind you that we will continue to adapt to this unfolding situation to best provide you with the top quality products and services you've come to expect from Vapers Tek.

Social Distancing? Order Online!

Public health experts and epidemiologists are unanimous in promoting social distancing as our most effective weapon as individuals to keep overall infection rates as low as possible, and to prevent overwhelming our already stressed health care system. We encourage this practice to all our customers, and are currently offering Free Shipping on orders over $75.
Our full line of custom premium e-liquids is just the tip of the vape supply iceberg we offer online at:
www.vaperstek.com

That being said, our brick and mortar stores in both Grove and Miami will remain open unless one or more of the following events occur:
1. We are required to temporarily close by a federal, state, or municipal government proclamation.
2. Our staff or local community has been exposed to the point where we feel as if the members of our team and our customers health and/or safety is in jeopardy.

In the event we do have to close our physical stores, we will continue to ship online orders unless there is a full stoppage of all transportation delivery systems.

Due to an increase in order volume, as well as larger-than-usual individual order size, we do ask for your patience with placing online orders. We understand the need for all our customers to stock up in the event of a prolonged period of quarantine, non-shipments, and/or national carrier shutdowns. Know that we at Vapers Tek are diligently committed to ensuring all of our customers are taken care of in as timely a manner as we are physically capable of providing. We have always, and will continue to put our customers first.

Thank you

So, VT is apparently operating, but due to higher than usual volume, they might take a little longer than usual to fill orders. And of course, the "open" status could always change.

I usually never mix with custards. I just got TFA VC V2 though. I mixed it with V1 and both TFA Straw, and Ripe. It tastes pretty good but can get better.

Maybe I could mix that with TFA RY4 Double. I’ve never tried the TFA VC (either version). I think you’re the first one I’ve heard of that uses it.

 

[AndriaD]

Got the blue minibook today, that @shawn.hoefer had for sale... I am IN LOVE with it!!!



It's a much nicer color than I thought it would be; I thought it was kind of a sickly cyan color, but it's actually like a deep sky blue. Yes, already checking AHD's site for a nice custom tip for it. because I don't have anything that matches it. Already got the approval from the mate, but I'm gonna wait till Wednesday when we get his SocSec direct deposit and I make a big payment on my Visa. It's either going to be "Precious Blue" or "Blue Topaz Water." Can't quite decide between those.

Andria

ETA: So, I now have 7 Minibooks... black, red, 4 white, and the blue. That's one more than my 6 CF IVs, some of which are showing their age.

When I did my vanilla custard shoot out, I liked TFAs the best. I tested the ones I had solo (about 5 or 6 of them). CAP V1 was too rich for my liking but that's been one of the most popular custard flavors for years.

Best stuff evah! just my personal opinion. Tried some of the V2 stuff and hated it tested of bile to me.

I only use 4 ml of the V1 in 120 ml.

That is so cool! Have never seen or heard of them before.

 

[AndriaD]

Really? They've been around for a WHILE, they're only 40w mods, which is why, when you can find them -- it's gotten kinda difficult! -- they're very inexpensive. But BlackoutVapors still has some white ones -- I just got a couple of white ones from them a couple weeks ago, and they seem to be a solid company, though that's the first business I've done with them. https://blackoutvapors.com/product/sigelei-mini-book-40w-tc/?attribute_color=White

They're by far my most-fave mods EVER! I love those nifty battery doors, and they also are the most efficient battery-users I've ever had; all my mods are single-battery mods, and a 30Q lasts longer in the Minibooks than in ANY other mod.

Just ordered a shitload of flavors from BCF and Gremlins.
Traded off my Purple Wake mod.

OMG. I took out the liter of Kentucky Bourbon Cusdart and filled up 2 120s. When I was done I licked my fingers of a few drops. I got a strong buzz. The juice is 18mg! I believe my intention was to mix it with the 12mg Vanilla Bourbon Custard since Vaping Watch was out of 30 and 120ml of the Kentucky. There's no way I would vape that straight.

So, now if one of you kind vapers would help me calculate now much 18mg to use when cutting the Vanilla, that would be wonderful. I'm at 12mg. Perhaps cut it in half? I ordered way too much Vanilla 120s.

 

[Smigo]

I ordered one of these Zeus tanks in Gunmetal grey and some coils today from a shop here. Im expecting them to take longer than usual to arrive. I wanted the Gunmetal one and it was amongst the last I could find here. Looking forward to getting it.

 

[Just Frank]

Hey @nadalama , I figured this one out-


I guess I wasn't looking that hard the first time because this was hiding in plain site. Anybody that still uses a Smok TF-RTA can go ahead and throw a (standard) Prince tank bubble glass on it. I remeber you commented that I could find it and I did!

If you mix equal amounts of 18mg and 12mg, you wind up with 15mg. It averages.

Hmmm. I'll try that for a kick bottle. I really want to be able to enjoy the Kentucky so I'll try a bit less than half, too.

Thank you very much, Andria. I hope this finds you well and in good spirits (as best as good spirits can go right now).

Yes, we're all well here -- hope you and yours are, too! But this insanity is definitely not helping my lifelong anxiety problems. We just emerged from a horrendous recession, and although things are much better now, I hate to think what all this insanity is going to do not just to the economy, but to our entire modern way of life. I stay home pretty much all the time just by choice -- but knowing how many places are closed now, or only running short hours... it's giving me a slight case of cabin fever. Hopefully all this "shelter in place" stuff, plus oncoming spring and warmer weather, will get us over this in short order, at least to the point where the widespread paranoia and panic ease up.

Andria

 

[Ms. Trixy]

I'm glad to hear that you're okay albeit feeling the effects of what this situation is doing to you. Frankly I'm in the same shape you are, ailments and all.
I don't know if you've been to the Daily Chick-In Thread, but it's a great way to relieve yourself of frustration and get support. It's time for me to check-in today.

I put a nice build on my Kylin Mini last night and put a dropper full of the Kentucky in the tank. It was just right. But I forgot to pressurize the tank.

 

[brandon david]

Well, my preferred 810 drip tips came in to the office as expected Saturday (which I got Monday-- that essential life, ya'll) but my 5ml glass was delayed until yesterday. Once it came in late morning, I wasted no time scampering off and swapping things out and now am back to my ideal RTA setup having a 5ml tank with dripper flavor and the drip tip I like. It works just as well as I remember and I am thoroughly pleased.

Steam Crave just nailed it with the aromamizer plus v1. I am interested in the v2 but cannot justify the purchase with as good as the v1 is. If a newbie to building on the hobbiest side of things is thinking about picking one up and wants to tune your vape in to your personal tastes, I don't mind doing a pictorial build and wick tutorial on this guy. I hadn't built one in over a year and it was (almost) like riding a bicycle. It was that easy and I don't mind helping you figure it out.

I really like your drip tip, Brandon. I have a couple that shape but they're for my Cleitos. Where did you get it? Is it press-fit? Is it a 510???

 

[Ms. Trixy]

On another note, I've been racking my brain trying to find Nautilus BVC coils for my incoming Nautilus Minis. I thought I had a boatload, but they're BDC.
It's okay for the Davide Glassomizer I have, but I can't find CE5s, Vivi Novas or similar anywhere. I'm setting up to vape nic salts from these tanks.

Also, I can't find Wake Bigfoot tank coils or the newer DotMod'ish Wake RTA in gold. Apparently they didn't make one in purple for the purple mod.
I did find out that they take Sigelei M coils which I'm also unable to find, or they're $20 a box. I'm looking for those specifically because I can use the gold cage over it for show. Not that I get out that often to show it off.

I can't believe how many coils are sold out!

Drat I just trashed a bunch of vivi nova stuff last year.
along with a bunch of Kanger clearos and coils.

Thanks, Crom. I do it to myself. Hey, after a certain amount of time if I don't think I'll use something I'll get rid of it. THEN comes the time I need/want it.

I did find Nautilus coils specifically for SNic. 1.80Ω BVC NS - $13.95. And I found the compatible Sigelei MS coils for the Wake Tank. I also found a RTA for the Wake mod. AND I finally found a 4mm coil rod built into the handle of a SS vape brush. That $4.95 puts me over $100 for free shipping.

I have so many BDC coils. I know the Davide Glassomizer will take them, which I have up for sale, but I can't find anything else to put them in. Everything is sold. Oh, and like you, I'm home and in front of my PC all day.

Sorry if I'm ranting. I just want these windows closed.

The iJoy Mercury AIO and the Artery Pal 2 can use those BDC coils. Last time I looked, VapeNW still had the Mercury for $6.99. It's a steal for that price, but is definitely MTL. Solid, though, nice quality. Also tiny.

I see what you mean about the Mercury. Nice AIO. And I don't need to buy pods. Considering I just went through 23 boxes Aspire coils. I was pleased to find 11 boxes of BVC 1.8Ω coils! Yay! I'm not going to waste BDC coils. I could attempt to sell them, but I'm sure they'll just sit.

I like the Mercury enough to get one or 2 at that price. I'm trying to go MTL for nic salts. But still do my usual subbing. I have a Nautilus Mini coming from Dub. Maybe one from Vash. I can keep a Mercury at bedside and one for the purse or in the kitchen. I don't do vooping (lol).

Thank you, Nada!
