Why we collect rebuildables.

Absolutely agree. I only use rebuildables and diy juice. I'd like to figure out how to make nets also. Would be kinda hard to stop me vaping then. I also appreciate the miniature form and function of this stuff.

If vaping gets banned us builders and DIYers will continue to vape providing nicotine is still available? We are gearing up for possible starvation of vaping :D

I might as well learn to make my own juice

Do it! I never buy juice from shops really I treated myself to some the other week though and it tasted so artificial and crammed with crap! I prefer to make my own I know what's in it and its so much cheaper! :D

If you look on the DIY section on here there's loads of tips and advice on how to get started on it :)

For me it is the miniature craftsmanship, quality / control of vape and freedom to vape. No matter what happens in the industry and laws, having a stash means I can still find a way. Your thoughts?
not having to buy chinese shit,whose materials are as doubtful as their quality control....they just preform better than the Mc nugget tanks, they are built better at least the authentics...

When I was new to DIY I bought a bunch until I found the ones I love, the Mutation X line.

Now I have a bunch of them and a few similar RDAs that FastTech was trying to pass off as Mutations which are all set up so I don't have to clean and dry burn so often. I can just swap the RDA when it gets dirty and then will clean and dry burn a few at once.

That's the only thing I'm concerned about. Making your own naturally extracted tobacco juices seems to be a solution to not being able to buy nicotine solutions. Wire, cotton, flavorings and vg will remain available so net's could fill any nicotine gap.

Out of my currently 63 RDAs, I have 9 original Mutation X, and 3 Mutation XS. I like them, 'cause you can use them either as a flavor RDA, or for bigger clouds as well. In general, I like using RDAs for testing my DIY liquids, before they go in a tank.

I am not going to bother to mention the RDA's/RTA's and Mods Ive bought the last few years...they have all been slight variants of each other and I think the reason I buy more and more is to compare them....but I think Ive pinned down my favorite Mod and RTA now, still looking for that perfect RDA though...

The book http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1495207331 has a section DIY nicotine. It might not be perfect. However, you have some nicotine base. If push comes to shove, I'm thinking of growing some tobacco plants, and extracting as described in the book. Of course, you'd have to test the nicotine in the liquid. However, there are test kits available for that.

After a few years of collecting that sounds appropriate, if you like to buy...the crazy part is he has kept them the whole time...Ive sold almost every RDA/Mod that I dont use often..

Yep. An RDA's an RDA but they all vape at least slightly differently and have different looks.

I'm up to 15 RDA's now (all in all I have purchased and parted with many more) and I vape on maybe 4 of them regularly. The others I keep around because I like little trinkets and its nice to have something a little different to build on every now and then. It keeps me from stagnating too much in terms of how I approach building. Keeps it that much more interesting. Certain ones pair-up better with certain builds/devices.

I dunno. Over these past few years, I've discovered countless different vapes with distinct and unique qualities using different variations of the same thing. Part of the enjoyment is in the challenge of finding the perfect balance for each RDA. It's a constant endeavor in exploration and discovery for me.

Griffin/Hohm Wrecker G2 is the only Setup my focus is on anymore...Maybe a Few VCMT/Griffins as Extras but Ive been spoiled from the build space with these RTA's and now my 22mm RDA's dont keep up. I may buy that Alliance Fat Boy and the 30mm RDA's from now on...

have you read the section on making your own nicotine?...from everything I've heard extracting nicotine is not a DIY kinda project..extracting tobacco flavorings yeah simple, but nicotine.....

No! Neunerball is a Hoarder...Im a functionalityalist..I only keep things I like, use alot and work well
LOL. A Hoarder holds onto a large number of items that are useless. However, I'm using each of my RDAs. Therefore, I'm not a Hoarder, but a Collector.

Yes, I did read only that chapter. In general, harvesting tobacco plants by hand, you're supposed to wear gloves as well. The most nicotine is contained in the leafs, rather than the stems. So, chopping up the leafs and treating them as described in the book will definitely extract the nicotine, it's just like extracting caffeine from coffee beans. However, the level of nicotine extracted won't be as much/high, as it is when done the professional way.

Wow some serious collectors in here. I just had a spare VLS Vector and an Aromamizer v2 "round" RDA arrive today. I have a Vulcan and a Vector in use. 4 is an unlucky number according to the Chinese, so am going to finish my collection with a Freakshow Mini. ;)

Is that a Snow Wolf mini? If so how is the battery life?
Yes thats the Mini, Its fine as long as you use less then 60w with it (4-5 hours), if your using 60w+ then you may get an hour or 2 out of it. But you can just swap out batteries and keep going.
I just found yesterday they have 2 new Snow Wolf Mini's that can output up to 90w...Wish I knew that was going to happen when I bought mine.

Hmm I vape at 0.5 to 0.7 Ohms at 42.5W max, think I will wait to see if the 75W prices drop. Cheers.

I doubt it will drop, Snow Wolfs keep there value pretty well...The 200w was released almost a year ago and the prices havent changed much at all..
