That's why we keep telling you to learn how to build your own. Wrap some wire around a screwdriver, put it in the RDA/RTA, wick, and drip/fill. Simple as that. No more complicated than making your own eliquid, actually less complicated. You can get a great vape out of a simple round wire coil. You don't have to build the complex "gargoyle hoof" coils as Grimm Green calls them. Use the force Rhianne...Smokes were $14 a pack in NY, and that was mostly tax!!!
I was trying to figure out how many coils I’d need to last a few years. Ye Gods! If a coil lasts, let’s say, a week. That’s 52 coils a year. So that’s 10-ish boxes a year.
Hmm, I’ve still got a way to go.
I always go the low side so I have space to spare, not left wanting if you know what I mean. Some last longer but a week is the minimum. Depends on the juice too. My darker real sweet chocolate ones seem to see them gone in a week. The clear/clearish week and a half. People who dont use sweetener like I do typically get a little more. I too though will usually vape one coil tank set up till its finished and dont usually have a few in rotation. Some people do and may say how their coils, factory made with cotton, last well over a month or more. Most though rotate and if you really worked out how much work the coil did it would be mostly within the area more or less I find them lasting for.Smokes were $14 a pack in NY, and that was mostly tax!!!

Clear as mud.
Is that the real name? Made by Fudd enterprises?
Seriously the names stuck on some vape stuff....
Yep that's the real name. No idea where that came from.
Well beats the heck out of a Wanko RDA. Have a couple btw
Even squonkified one. Todd suckered me into buying them plus on sale for extra cheap...Actually they do vape much better than the attys that come on the Kanger or Pico squonk mods.
Anyone interested in Kanger Squonk attys?

I’ve been watching the Hellvape guy build on YT. I need a Coily, I think. I’m worried about being able to drop them in.
I think I’ll start with pre built coils, Goph. Then work my way up. Believe me, bans and Deeming being so close have put the wind up me!!!
Thanks, bro.

I’ve got two Snow Wolf Minis. The button takes lot of pushing but it’s a beautiful mod.

I might be. I’m not that comfortable with dripping. Pita.
Just the atty and kind of a joke since the attys are pretty bad. But if interested. I have a few.
yep same here on dripping only dripping it to test new juice on rare occasions. I keep one Wasp Nano with a regular pin in it for that purpose.
Thank you very much. How cute!
Which is vaping related. 
LOL, it would.

Ordered an Aspire Plato from ejuicesteals for $12.99 plus 6 boxes of Triton Mini Ni200 coils for 50 cents a box. The Plato can use Nautilus coils and it does TC, so I'm gonna try it. Have plenty of regular coils, if I don't like the TC.

So, I don't know what the deal is with half moon mods but I am starting to get a bit pissed off. I placed an order when they had their drip tip sale and ya I get it, they were probably busy. But now when I try to log in it says I don't exist so I have emailed them 2x's now and nothing other than they said be patient. Okay and again I ask them why can't I login to even check on my order. They don't seem to want to answer that question. Anyone else order from them recently and having a issue? I mean this is stupid. It is over 10 days now and nothing. I'm gonna do a paypal complaint if they don't respond soon.
Well, I just sent them a 3rd email saying this is a bit ridiculous. At least say something. If they don't respond again then I guess I will file a complaint with paypal. I hate doing that but it's the point of it now.

Do they have a FB page?
When I have trouble with vendors I Message them there and have had good luck with that usually.
I have never bought from Half Moons so I have no experience with them.
Opening a PayPal dispute is easy- I know because I had to do 2 of those in the last few months- 1st time in 18 years of having PayPal, never once did I ever file a dispute. I won both and got my money back.
I've had to file a charge back with my Credit Card company too- ugh
I hope it all works out for you!
I'm waiting for the rioting to start here. I could use a new TV.
Pines and i are on that list too...they may be making to order. Dunno...

Today I cleaned up most of a mess that has been building for a while. I needed to rearrange the storage boxes that hold my empty boxes and mods/atomizers that are packed away. I couldn't really finish because I filled up my totes, but got most of it in a lot better shape than it was.
Now I need to get ready to clean and put a bunch more atomizers away. Have to work up to that.

Sorry @wildgypsy70. My feelings are busy or not, they should still reply to emails. That or if they don't want to take time out to do that, that's fine but then put a notice on the website or something. I was worried that not being able to log in I got hosed but if others are waiting then I suppose we will get them eventually
I made a quicky DIY juice in-bottle: 30 ml of a Spiced Peach Tobacco. Because I felt like it. ;-)
1. 30ml bottle
2. 2-3ml of flavors, one drop of liquid Stevia
3. filled up with my pre-porportioned 14mg Base. (I keep a 400ml bottle of it ready for things like this)
Done.

I vaped, read VU, and mixed 330 ml of various juices. So pretty much SSDD.
SUPER early this morning had to make a new coil for a tank that I keep on my nightstand.
A while ago I made some juice for a trade for a friend.
Since then, been playing catch up.
Trying to stay away from the TV, but we're under a curfew and there ain't much else to do.

3x26/36 n80 4 wrap claptons .08 for both. they are Fugly but are working pretty good. maybe a little to good.
A person always needs more storage bins/totes don't they?
Yep pretty crazy over in your neighborhood.
Had lots of gunfire around me this past weekend. But just normal rednecks shooting up a lot of expensive ammo.
Have one neighbor that must shoot up $50 or more of ammo each weekend.
Vape related...yeah...SMH.
First off, I went to re-wick and clean the O-Atty v2 I'd had on my Underground SQK clone, that went well.
Then I went to fill the bottle and oops...not much juice left...so I made some: 60ml of DIYFS Blueberry Muffin with a touch of Holy Vanilla and a couple drops of TFA Huckleberry. Yummers, this also went well.
I was all set to take a pic or two and celebrate with a nice cold beer...
Then I was putting it all back together and the u-shaped brass "door' wouldn't go on right, was just a smidgen too tight...so I pulled it open a teeny bit.
That's when things went horribly wrong. It snapped in two.
See this incredibly thin joint?
Yeah, it ain't there any more. Just razor sharpness where it used to be.
The door still goes and stays on as it has magnets. But, I had to stick some black duck tape over that exposed edge so I don't accidentally slice myself while holding the mod...I just know I would.
And that, is why ya should never do vape-related things...LOL...
P.S.: It vapes awesome again and the new juice is super-yummy. Still don't know how I can fix that door though.

Well, not gonna like that post. I'm sorry, that bites when crap like that happens. Such a cool squonk too. I have one of those.
Could you post what percentages you used. That sounds great and I have those flavors.
I love a good blueberry vape

I don't really go that exact anymore... unless I'm mixing NIC base up.
I measured out enough pre-mixed 14mg 25/75 base (I mix it as if I'm using around 8% flavoring, I just leave it out) for a 60ml bottle, leaving room for 5-6ml of flavorings.
Added like 5ml of the blueberry muffin, about 1ml of the HV, a couple drops of liquid Stevia, and a couple drops of the ancient TFA Huckleberry just to bring the berry out a bit. Sounds weird, but it works for me. ;-)

Nope, it's all good I can play around with that
Thanks

Glad to help, hope you like it. Simple is good these days.
I love the DIYFS Blueberry Muffin, but just wanted a bit more vanilla (any excuse to use the Holy Vanilla - I'll take it) and less cake flavor. And to kick up the berry taste a bit.
PS: I'm vaping this at ~14mg nic on a mech squonk with a single-coil twisted 28ga K1 build..so it's a big vape. YMMV...

Opened my eyes this morning thinking about an Asgard RDA. Within 20 minutes I had ordered a matte black Asgard Mini and a blue Drop Dead RDA from Vapeology.eu. Glad I went ahead, because most of the colors of the Asgard Mini are already sold out.
Tossed a coil and wick in the Berserker V2 clone and popped it on the Pulse 80. Thinking I have to pull out the airflow insert as it's a bit more restricted than I prefer.
Also checked tracking on my Topside carbon and dual nic orders. All are still in the purgatory of "in transit to destination".

That juice mix sounds great!
Mixed up a gallon of 50/50. Also mixed up 240 ml of Cromwell's Custard.
Cleaned and recoiled a Wasp Nano, and of course vaped.
