Inawera Eucalyptus with Menthol

[domesticextremist]

Vapesplainer: I am a great fan of Decadent Vapours mentholyptus concentrate which I like to vape to clean out me pipes, especially in the winter time.
I realise this probably puts me in a special interest group of one, but hey ho.

Well I was ordering from Dark Star and saw some Inawera Eucalyptus with Menthol and thought I'd give that a whirl.
It is very nice at 10 % - less eucalyptus and more menthol than the DV version and overall not as intense, but the menthol side does not give me heartburn as so many menthol flavour juices do.

A word of warning though - I put it into a Doggy clone with one of the FT acrylic replacement tanks ( the original PC one had stress cracked around the chimney ring). All was fine until I came to unscrew it for a refill and the tank literally cracked and crumbled to bits under finger pressure.
So be warned it seems to be an acrylic tank cracker - which is a bit limiting for me cos I love my Doggys

I've some of this, yet to use Dom . . . . quite enjoyed DV's version - although I added fruit to it, just to soften it down for my tastes.

Not surprised it's a tank cracker though, anything mentholated always was unfortunately.

Love the DV mentholyptus domesticextremist Perpetua but had to dial it down to 10% and even then it’s a tad aggressive.
Been running it through a Kayfun Lite for over a year now and polycarbonate tank still holding up so may stay with the DV version after your experience.

Which fruits did you find went well with the mentholyptus Perpetua as I have been vaping and sucking on various fruit pastilles trying to find a match.

You've done well then shiny, although I'd imagine ( with no disrespect to the Doggy clones ) that the Kayfun's polycarb is probably of a higher grade.

Blackcurrant, a bit predictable - but it's one of my favourite fruit flavours, TW's is very nice.

Perpetua you are probably right regarding the use of higher grade materials used by SvoëMesto, the O-rings only got changed out after 3 years just because I thought I should use some of the spares I over purchased at the time of ordering the tank and not because they needed replacing.

Yes, black currant, will add some when I order the other flavour, apple that I settled on.

Just to clarify it was the PMMA tank that cracked (using the FT spares, perhaps intended for the SJMY clone but not necessarily made by them).
Didn't yet risk an original SXK polycarb one, but I have found they tend to stress crack around the chimney ring.
Both of my clones are SXK but I bought some spare PMMA tanks based on the above.

O for a glass tank or even a PEI/ultem one.

shiny - I found that DV mentholyptus made a nice blend with cherry flavourant.
Think cherry tunes

Thanks Perpetua for sharing but only just seen your post (unofficial nap due to shift work) and luckily only a smallish order. 

Not too sure about “cherry tunes” domesticextremist as went through litres of Red Astaire and now I can’t vape anything similar, um.... single malt comes to mind as well for some reason.

I share that experience most evenings shiny! Getting up at 4.30am . . . . I'm lucky to still be awake at 8pm.

Update - I'm coming to the conclusion that the problem is the tanks not the juice.

Put a fresh one on and filled it with Inawera Raspberry and after just two days it is cracked and crazed to buggery.
It wil probably disintegrate when I unscrew it to refill.

Will be investing on some PC ones instead.

These tanks are pants, don't waste your time with them
