Hi mowjo . You seem to have got off to a positive start there, good to hear that you getting on well with it. Mixing flavours is ok to do, its tail and error till you get something you like. I always have menthol, aniseed and vanilla handy for adding to other flavours.

Well the brain is back to near normal this morning! far too much info on here for my little noodle to take in, I tried a few flavours at the shop today and strangely ended up buying samples of 18mg Blueberry and Menthol, very odd as I don't normally like either, I dropped to 18mg from the 24mg after explaining to the shop I didn't like the sting at the back of my throat, he asked how many cigs I used to smoke a day and told me the 24 mg might be a bit to strong for me, got my samples home and tried them on their own seemed stronger than the testers in the shop but then I remembered the ones in the shop were 8mg, so the mad professor in me came out, out came the hair spray lid, for the purist out there my mixing bowl, my empty juice bottles, and cotton buds with the ends cut off and flattened, my mixing sticks, put in the Blueberry and added about a quarter of the Menthol, not bad but needed a bit more, just adding a bit more when the wife decides while she's passing to hit me around the head, whoops squeezed to hard top came off and I now had a 50 50 Blueberry and Menthol mix, strangely I like it but that's how science discovers things though I don't suppose they have their wives there hitting them in the head, I now have visions of saying to the wife hit me in the head I need to get this mix right, I would like to get into mixing my own but in all honesty I'm just too lazy, I like the look of the JJ stuff plus he's doing a buy BOGOF at the moment so with the code I'd be getting 60ml for the price of 30ml and being tight that's good for me, I quite fancy the Strawberry and Cream but the concept of vaping it instead of eating it seems a bit strange to me, I'm off on my boat for 2 weeks from Friday so will be putting in an order from JJ once I get back, another question here! on JJ it says about PG/VG ratios, now I don't have a clue what this means apart from if I'm right one is for taste and the other is for vapour, so should I just stick with 50 50, and at this point I'd just like to say thank for all the welcomes and advice you lot have given, I can now understand why some people give up vaping if they just stick to the tobacco juices that the corner shops sell, now the mad scientist has come out in me I could soon be creating monsters

that's a question of taste mowjo I personally prefer bottom coils - some others prefer the top coils - as it gives a warmer vape - the bottom coils are also easy to recoil and before you hear it of anybody else my favourite is the protank 2 with the airflow controler - cheapest at myepack

Welcome mowjoSorry to miss your arrival. I think bottom coil clearos are better than top, yes. In fact, I just gave away 3 top coils this morning (randomly) as I won't be using them and they were getting dusty. I don't vape Juice Joose (sorry folks) apart from the Black Gold. I use LT e-cigs and find them more to my taste. www.ltecigs.larsentilbrook.co.uk/index.php?route=product/category&path=61Oddly, I will now vape almost any strength of liquid. I just did 4 days away with only 6mg liquid. This morning, I've been using up an old bottle of 24mg. I don't care, I just stop puffing on a strong liquid after 5 or 6 puffs and see how long it lasts. 12 is probably the best for me, but I am weaning myself lower and lower.

you sound like you will fit in well here as were all mad to one degree or another but one tip for you don't just mix flavours willy nilly write everything down because you can guarantee one thing the one you don't write down will be your favourite and you will spend years trying to duplicate it and you will never ever manage to do it

Thanks Clivia! I was just looking at the Protank2, had to look up the airflow doohicky as I had no idea what it was, still not sure if I do know what it does, the reason for the question was I find the one I'm using tends to get a bit too warm so thought the bottom coil might be better, I thought I might be (ok you lot keep it clean) sucking too hard, so it looks like my next kit will be the protank2 and airflow thingy, being tight the prices won't break the bank, strangely the thing confuzzling me is the juices, everyone seems to have their own favourite brands, but as there only seems to be a few that loads recommend I'll get the same flavour from each one and see what one I prefer, Ronaldo! don't get me started on keeping notes, my Mrs thinks I have shares in post it's, I have a boat so make notes of everything, from when I refuel to any little job I need to do, I keep notes on things I need to do when I get home, notes of websites you name it I keep notes on it and stick them everywhere, trouble is my Mrs is a clean freak and I'll get up one morning and they will all be gone, I only found out a few months ago she puts them all in a kitchen draw to keep them safe, trouble is she never told me, I thought she binned them, when she did eventually tell me after I went ballistic one day, I went to said draw and found notes from 5 years ago, so now I have one post it that says check draw, I'm getting my own back as I found a post app for my iPad and make notes on there now, that'll teach her to mess with my notes,, Mow,,,

Hi mowjo and a warm from me too PG gives throat hit & apparently slightly more flavour (not noticed the more flavour thing myself) and VG gives more vapour and apparently a slightly sweeter flavour - all my mixes are quite sweet anyway, so again, I don't really notice that As for JJ, order some 10ml samples before your holiday. They are all mixed to order so need a week or two's steeping to be good, so whilst you're away, you won't be tempted to sample them too early
