Correct me if I am wrong but I believe you didn't start vaping with the intention to stop smoking but has it had an effect? Do you seem to be smoking less or?

I know this question wasn't aimed at me but thought I'd throw my 2 cents in.

I've not touched a cigarette since I started smoking. Its also helping with my eating habits, as I'm the type of person who just goes and looks in the fridge just due to boredom and pull out a massively bag of chocolate. Not done that either.
 
I've made 50ml, 2x10ml with 10-12mg nicotine. I've also made 3mg 80/20 and 0mg nic 85/15 liquid in 10ml

I was mixing the liquid, I forgot my parents were having some friends over. The dodgy look most gave me when they came to say hi was priceless. :p

I had a similar experience, I mix all mine at work - have a dark room I keep valuables in, no natural light, only myself and other managers have access, the look on my managers face when he walked in and I have syringes and unmarked bottles everywhere :o

Thankfully he vapes too and wanted to try some frozen forest :D

Edit: I have ordered some Cylinders to mix over 100ML batches as VG with a 10ML Syringe can be an absolute pain :D

I'm lazy with my mixes, if I want 50/100ml I'll syringe up the required amount of concentrate first, put that in the empty bottle, then just tip my VG nic base in on top :p

I do need to invest in a small funnel though for pouring.

Its vaping, its not smoke... its vapour. :p

Haha, does he DIY too?

The lecutre I had last year vapes too, he has a massive collection of vapes. Lots of his own mixed DIY juices which taste soo good, last time he had such a mixture (it sounded grim), but was one of those flavours you just can't forget. It was so different and so good! (That liquid has sat in a dark room for 4-6 weeks, it had a nice orangey colour) :D

Tomorrow, I'll need to make an order for concetrate, more bottles, syringes and a funnel. I'll pick up some more Glycerin from boots on monday...

You keep chocolate in the fridge? :p

I'll admit of all the methods of getting off the smokes vaping has been the only one that's been effective, i didnt beleive folk i knew vaped when they said the ciggies just taste like dirt after a while until my last cigarette.

Was going airsofting, figured i couldnt take a mod on the field as it'd only get smashed (vaping companies take note; tough as nails, safe mods with smash and leak proof tanks are needed badly) so i grabbed 10 lambert, got halfway through the first one and it was so bad i chucked it down, threw the rest lf the pack in the bin and thought "screw it, cold turkey's better than this".

No other quitting method has worked that level of wonders, and the fact i can stick to it if needs be with a hopefully considerably reduced health risk is an added bonus, i've already been feeling better and indeed i'm only just getting to retrain my body that my lungs actually work now.

Nah, he's 3 years strong on his ego tornado-T and happy enough with his RY4 onepoundeliquid. I tried him with a subtank last year and it played havok with his asthma. I do plan to try get his nic down though, he's still on 18mg.

I swear those cheap eliquids aren't exactly healthy compared to the more expensive stuff or DIY liquid, right? I tried some menthol liquid from my mums vape when she bought it off in the corner shop, it was horrid. She loves the frozen forest though, so cheers for the recommendation. It was spot on for her, makes it easier for me as they've the concentrate.

It works out around £7.51 for 100ml DIY, I don't know why I bought so much PG. I've barley used any... :p

Edit: The funny thing is, all my stuff arrived, apart from my mums kanger subvod. Ordered it in white, I'll do myself a prezent for my birthday and get a white mech mod with a white RDA (first cloud chasing RDA). :D
ATM the mutation is blowing big enough clouds, I do need to find an RDA with better flavour tho. :)

Well, after reading some posts in here a week or so ago, I decided I wanted to try some Man Flu. I hate paying postage for nothing though, so I got a few other flavours.

Frozen Forrest, Amour and Strawberry and Vanilla Milkshake got ordered along with the Man Flu.

The Milkshake is pretty rank. Has that "custardy" kind of flavour I despise, but not quite as bad. I think it's actually the vanilla I dislike now, rather than specifically the "custard". So just the same really.

But the rest. Wow. I have spent entirely too much money on eliquids that I gave up and just stuck to usual two for the last year or so (Red Astaire and Dr. Vapour, with the very occasional Cola Gummy from Cosmic Fog).

Anyway, I can add 3 more to my list it appears. The Man Flu is excellent. REALLY enjoying that. As is the Frozen Forrest. The Amour isn't quite as show stopping, but still certainly more than good enough for me (although the recommended 25% compared to 20% concentrate of the rest messes up my mixing, lol).

Anyway, just a shame they don't sell larger quantities of concentrate. I generally try to buy in 100ml, until T-Juice stopped selling such large quantities. Now I just wait for their annual epic discount codes. Dr. Vapour made a mistake and sent me 250ml instead of 100ml so still working my way through that one.

But at £4 for 10ml it is a bit expensive. And only allowed 30ml per concentrate at a time. No discount codes either. Booooooo.

Anyway, still, at least I can change up my flavours a bit. Thanks guys.
 
As for the flavour RDA, I have a hard time beating the Magma 1:1 clone I got off Fasttech (https://www.fasttech.com/p/2134701). Absolutely by far my most flavoursome atty. The black plastic chuff cap does tint the flavour though, so use the smaller metal one, with a dual coil build (currently at 0.7 ohm) and everything I vape with it is absolutely LUSH...
 
IC3, grab some scales dude, it'll change your mixing experience amazingly.

I mixed up 300ml across 4 flavours/bottles 2 nights ago, didn't use a single syringe and literally no mess :D

Misses has decided to get me some concentrate for valentines, went for concentrates to make My favourite custard, simply;

3% NY cheesecake
3% French vanilla v1
4% Vanilla custard
30/70

After a month it's amazing!

The INW biscuit at 5% 20/80 is a really simple and flavoursome vape, to me it tastes exactly like the 'NICE' biscuits :D

I've noticed a lot of people are vaping custards/milks/creamy flavours.

Does anyone know anywhere that sell these types of flavour concentrates that don't contain Acetyl Propionyl, Acetoin, Diacetyl. I don't really fancy getting bronchitis.

Bronchitis - is this a Daly mail headline I've not seen?

Welcome to the VO fan club :D

The strawberry and vanilla milkshake, custard cream, ginger cream and Madagascan custard all taste similar to one another - i don't like them, all taste like burnt pastry to me, even after steeping for 4 months.

Try their lemon and lime out if you like man flu.

Prices could be better, buy I recently paid £12 to make 150ml of man flu so not all too bad.

Messed up with my FT order I think, the rig v2 I ordered is a hybrid and not designed for something to sit flush on, ita designed to cup a 22mm rda. Can I cancel just a single line from a FT order or have to be the whole thing?

E: nm, put s ticket in.

You can cancel or ask them to swap the item, i just did this last week, had an order for three items but asked to change one of the items to something else of a similar price and they did with no extra charge, mind there was only like 20p difference... lol
 
Nice one, I'll update my ticket and ask them to change it to an able clone, if anything the K24 will look better on the able anyhow :D

I might get a scale, whilst you weight the PG, Concentrate, VG and Nic do you just do it 1ml = 1g or?

'INW biscuit' <-- Where did you get this concentrate from?

I don't bother with scales really. The VG is the bulkiest ingredient in my mixes, so when I mix 100ml I syringe every other ingredient (so for a 40/60 mix at 6mg it's only 8.3mm nic, 11.67ml PG and 20ml concentrate). This is easily, and accurately, done with a 10ml syringe. I then just pour the VG by hand (60ml). Sure, it wont be too accurate, but it doesn't have to be. I know where in the bottle the 100ml mark will be, so I will be within a few ml, and over a 100ml mix, it will make little difference.

I also make up multiple mixes at the same time with the same syringe. So I will do 3 or 4 bottles of 100ml at once. And will put the nic in each bottle first, then wash syringe, then PG, then wash, then concentrate, wash, then pour VG. Usually.

50ml mixes are nice though too because you just shoot a straight 10ml bottle of concentrate in the mix. But as I use dropper bottles for these mixes, I kinda have to use a syringe for the VG.

Only thing I syringe is NIC now, bought some 250ml twisty cap bottles from iBottles to store my VG and PG so I can pour straight in the bottle sat on the scales, same for concentrates

INW is Inawera, Chefs Vapour sell them
 
With regards to earlier posts re 26650 mods, as some of you know, i had an sx350j 26650 mod, and i have a few Shockle 26650 cells, they are 3500mAh, 30amp from Torchy, anything i saw over 3500mAh were lower amp or did not hold up as well based on reports and graphs.
Now 3500mAh may sound good and it could be down to the naff sx350j, but i found battery life to be no better than a good 18650, now as i said it could be down to the sx350j as it seams to stop regulating once you get below nominal voltage and just dumps whatever battery power you have left, you can feel it in the vape as it gets weaker, like using a ego battery... so im guessing fewer mods use the 26650 for this reason, they are not better than 18650... just because they are bigger and Plumes guys noted that they felt drop off and bad sag on the VF Stout with the 26650 cell... so im not hold too much hope in having great battery life from a single 266650 mod.
But the Stout looks good and was cheap, and i dont like having cells i cant use so thought what the heck lol
