I use it in a coffee mix that i love Same with me. I add to a Cappuccino mix I make and also add a few drops of espresso to give it a bit more of a coffee kick. All FA flavours.

My Tropicana flavour 1.2% nic arrived yesterday and so I tried it. Lets just say not for me and no comparison to my tropical flavours mixed using flavourart flavorings. Tastes very artificial and after a couple of hours I felt a bit unwell. Today all I can taste is that ruddy chemical tasting flavour in my mouth and not my usual flavour. Even to the point I checked I was vaping the right atomiser..yup! So I am afraid a big thumbs down from me and is purely my personal opinions and be interesting to see what others think. Price wise, you can get much better value and better juice in the shops.

OK I admit it I am now a lurker!. Thing is I am not up on all the latest mods using sub ohming as I am in the stick to my aerotanks and ...wait for it....yes.. still love my VTR even though it is a brick. Just feel I have not got much to contribute but do enjoy trying to keep up with latest trends and of course enjoy the banter. I must make more effort to contribute even if it is just waffle. edit - to clarify that is me postig waffle not others. Nearly dug myself a hole there!

Clean the battery contacts as they can get muck on them and also the little spring plunger contact for the battery door flap as well as where it contacts the flap. Might help.

I have found the O ring on the base does wear/deform over time and needs replacing and is one cause of flooding of the coil. Even though it may look fine replacing it can make a big difference. They are 12x10x1mm o rings in the standard size protanks. You could also try wrapping a bit of cotton around under the O ring to try and bulk it up so it makes it seal again and can work. I spend ages fiddling with coils and adding extra wick material to stop them flooding, replaced the O ring and no further issue. Just ordered myself some more spares from china ... www.fasttech.com/p/2156303

DAve (PMS), ok we differ -- I bow to your better judgement ---- where have i gone wrong?
EDIT -- nah! I still think I am right to preserve the pg/vg ratios an flavour strength.

List all the other ingredients you added and their volumes you used. Now multiply each by 1.143 and add together with your original mix and you will have the correct ratios you were aiming for. 10.26 ml pg 34.2 ml vg 8.55 flavourings. 54ml Afro Diz gone wrong!
job done. Double check my figures so you understand how I calculated. 1.14 is 4 (the additional nic you added) divided by 3.5(what you wanted). This gives you the ratio to use if you were mixing with 4ml of nic, which of course is now part of your original mix.

I am going to rephrase this for you... AAEC was very first forum where we started making advertisement friends and we are grateful that the team and the members here treat us well. .

Do not fill to the brim but leave a gap by just filling below the neck. Reason is the Nic base contracts when cooling creating a vacuum at the top. If the top should let air in my leakage or permeating through the seal then over time the vacuum is replace by air. When you remove the bottle and let it come back up to room temperature any air seeping in will expand faster than it can escape and increase the pressure in the bottle and it may burst. Risk is low but is there.

Same here. What i always do though is note the weight of the bottle 1st and write it down. If you get distracted or scales switch off then you can check total weight of where you have got to and work out how much of latest ingredient you have added so far is, and therefore recover. I always use the same scales to measure all ingredients. If the scales are out of calibration it does not matter as the ratios will still be correct.

My figures.
Glycerine 1.261 mg/ml PG 1.036 mg/ml Vodka typically 0.947 mg/ml Distilled water assume 1g/ml You can approximate AG weight by just averaging it for the proportions used. e.g AG using 20% added vodka by volume (15% added by weight) works out at 1.208mg/ml AG using 15% added vodka is 1.215mg/ml 72mg Nic base is approx 1.038 mg/ml. Flavours - just use the PG weight.
Now even for allowing quite large errors in above it will still be far more accurate mixing using weight than volume. Scales - agree best not to have auto off or at least a long period or you have to constantly tap them to keep awake.
Even using weight though sometimes for some recipies it is easier to count drops. If say flavour required is just a couple of drops needed it is dificult to weigh accurately so just leave as two drops per 10ml say or whatever.
There we go, at least I have added some of my penny's worth.

Battery arrived yesterday and fitted this morning ( Wednesday morning) ....Huge difference starting and also runs a heck of a lot smoother warming up as alternator not straining to charge a duff battery.
