What did I do vape related? Ask Fasttech. I'm sure they'd be wondering what the hell I'm doing too, if it wasn't for the big kerchiiing sound every time I visit their bloody site. :crazy: In my defense, though: I only buy clones when it's either impossible (discontinued, permanently out of stock) or ridiculously difficult (joining FB group and similar nonsense to shift tiny stock) to get new originals.

What else? Gave advice from newbie to newbie how to get more space and a bit more convenient layout on the Strike 18 deck (yeah, as simple as rotating the positive post lol)

And in other news... got the Merlin MTL tank today, which I think isn't a bad tank at all, for rather airy MTL :teehee:

Ordered some upgrade Silver Plated Copper “Anvils” for my SZX RDA, then I finally got around to buying an AWS-100 Digital Pocket Scale recommended to me by @Mykreign.
Then ordered a plethora of 10ml plastic bottles and a few 5-packs of Chubby Gorilla Bottles from BullCity and hopped over to Nicotine River and ordered plenty of PG, VG, and 100mg potency liquid Nicotine.
Guess I should start browsing some recipes and get some concentrated flavorings headed my way so I can try out this DIY stuff I keep hearing people talk about...probably just a fad thing that’ll blow over soon JK...that was the same thing I said about vaping before I started...couldn’t be happier to have been so horribly wrong!

Less than a half hour from my last post and I already have entirely too many flavors coming my way now, lol. I think the final number came out to 13 different flavors for 3 recipes...it really needs to be harder to order this stuff...curse you wretched internet and your easy accessibility!

Ok, just curious...how many phone screens have you shattered or have you found some type of insanely strong screen protectors? Because with all of those Squonk boxes (and I’m sure that’s probably only a small percentage of your collection) your thumbs must exert more pounds of force than a crocodile bite!

Get vape mail?
Try a new build or coil?

I know your pain all too well. I moved back in October and still haven’t fully tackled the unboxing of all of my vaping stuff. Still have 3 big ole plastic totes in the spare bedroom closet. I just take stuff out as needed and figure it’ll eventually get unpacked using that method

Been busy with vape stuff the last few days. Did a winter clean up of my vape workshop. I've been accumulating way too many loose parts, atties I don't use anymore, and just general mess. Still have a bit more left to do but the hard part is done now.

Got a DoggyStyle from FT last week and really like it so I ordered a couple more. Very easy to set up dependably and the flavor is great. Would be nice if it held just a bit more juice, but it's so easy to refill it's not really an issue for me.

Got nine new 30Q batteries a few weeks ago. Finally got through testing the voltage drop under load of my old ones which are 3-4 years old now, and they are surprisingly still very good. I'll be putting six of the new ones in the freezer for a while. I think I'm set for batts for the next decade :wait:

Did the testing using a Nemesis clone bought back in 2013 and a Mutation X dripper from 2014 I think. Couldn't resist vaping this setup just for shits and giggles and I've been going back to it all day. It's a great vape, thirsty with a 0.4 ohm build in it, but I think I'm going to keep it out for a while for home use. Ahh, the good old days :cool:

Edit: after some research I found that there are two USPS facilities in Des Moines. Still been there for a whole day so that's cool...

Lol! Just wait until you hit 300 flavors.....which I just did about a week ago. And there’s still flavors I want. Welcome to DIY!

I mixed up a "5 drops of this, 3 drops of that, and One drop of coconut" 50mL :rolleyes: And it's yummy!

3% Vanilla Custard
5 drops Vanilla Milkshake
5 drops Fruit Circles
5 drops Sweet Strawberry
5 drops Lemonade
3 drops Ripe Banana
3 drops Sweet Cream
1 drop Coconut Extra

Mixing lots of things together gives a nice vape but I lose patience with measuring :oops:

Earlier today I popped some new coils into my SZX RDA and Mod after trying to get a decent coloring on them, but that’s a skill I haven’t used in quite a while, so, it came out mediocre at best
5572d29f7855db24f160eb41da64d402.jpg

But tonight I decided that setup needs a deep clean...I’ve noticed a bit of a drop off in the performance with that mod lately, but I’ve got some batteries in need of being phased out and I haven’t given it a good deep clean since I got it for Christmas, so, just got done breaking it down and washing everything and now the pieces are enjoying some bath time
f1705008664be28bf041e234cc9d1948.jpg

I have some new VTC5a’s that should be arriving tomorrow and an order of upgrade silver-plated copper parts for the RDA anvil-clamping system are on their way as well. Hoping between the deep clean, new batteries and upgrade components I’ll get back some of the performance I’ve noticed a drop-off of. Fingers crossed!

Wow, that's a lot of flavors, I usually stick to 3 or 4 max. OTOH, imagining the possibilities this is growing on me fast :)

A new local vape shop had their grand opening today, which is nice because it's much closer to us than the other one across town. And my son works literally next door so he can grab anything we need. Some super nice people run it and the sister of one made adorable Rice Krispy treats shaped like a mod kit. Picked up a couple of goodies, thanks to hubby's generous early Valentine's gifts. :)

Yeah, I was talking with @Mykreign about that very thing last night. I plan on picking a bunch of pipettes up next chance I get. BullCity is showing my order of 13 flavors, a 50-pack of 10ml bottles and five 5-packs of 30ml chubby gorilla bottles should be arriving tomorrow...NicRiver says my order of VG, PG, and Nic should be in on Thursday and eBay has my digital pocket scale coming in on Friday...I’m excited as hell to start!

Found a couple different builds for the Narda so I'm about to do that. Got my coil way to low. Just threw one in last night before I had to make like a baby and head out.

Damn a lot easier than I thought it would be. 2x28ss/36n80. We'll see how warm it is. May have to change it to something else

It's quite good. I tasted it in the shop before I bought it.
Is it like a frappe or just burnt coffee covered in cream. I got some caramel waffle cappuccino from the sauce and it's fairly good. Most other juices have a burst taste

Just FYI I get mine on Amazon and get 100 or 120 5ml pipettes for under $9 shipped if you have prime. Nice thing is I can get them the next day.

I'm not getting any burnt taste, just a kind of milky coffee flavor. I haven't found any other coffee flavors that I like except this. It's not a real strong flavor, it's a bit subtle but definitely there.

That sounds exactly what I'm looking for. I appreciate it. Like I want just enough coffee to know what it is and all the other stuff in top. Just like when I drink it. Lol

Best bang for my buck period as far as DIY was a 5$ graduated beaker set from eBay, nic river has the same ones.

The small one I use for 100mg/ml nic, larger ones for everything else, just pour big batches in seconds.

Tested a bunch of different flavour samples I've mixed together a while back. Well, 15 actually; all single flavours from FlavourArt. So my evening went pretty much like this: Wick, drip drip drip, toot toot toot, remove wick, dry burn, and the same procedure again... 15 times. But found some promising flavours in the process and had a recipe idea. So there'll be a little more mixing before bedtime. :)

That's a small fused Clapton I don't think the heat will be anything of a bad thing. Great fishing build for a regulated device.

Decided to go ahead and spin out the prep I had done earlier this week into sticks of Alien wire...but when doing the prep, I ran out of my preferred TEMCo 36ga N80 halfway through my decore prep and needed another 13 lengths of decore for the cores I had prepped and had to search in the graveyard box for remnant spools and eventually found enough 36ga to finish, but not my regular brand. Thought about just waiting until my wire order came in, but had the urge to build, so, I had to feed the beast and now about half of this run is going to the blem pile I knew better than to work with wire I knew probably wouldn’t work out and these poor sticks paid the price. May the coil gods forgive me for my sins...

Don’t even know if I have it in me to uncorkscrew them and wrap them into proper coils tonight.
