It's a bit off when they call it a Cobra and even the box says Cobra. That must be really galling to Siam Mods  Siam mods just do wholesale so you cant say for sure they dont originate from Siam mods, If it walks like a duck..... |

i want a good atty. i have been using v5 vivi nova but want to try something new.any suggestions?  Ive an Igo dripper which is good, Im looking to order something with a tank so I can give the ss mesh a go. Im thinking most are way over priced, there is not much to them its just a matter of supply that keeps the prices way up there. Im stuck between the AGA T2 www.vapegear.co.uk/product/agat2 that I could be using within a week, Or two DID rebuilables www.vaporbreak.com/en/did-rebuildable-atomizer/174-cheapest-did-rebuildable-atomizer.html#/tank_style-clear_tank that will most probably take a month to get here. I think Ill end up ordering two DIDs and waiting a month Ill order tomorrow after Ive trawled the web to see if there is something Ive missed

Wasn`t me Johnny, that is so rediculous though, you can get gallons of it on Ebay with no hassle, why the hell should you be hassled? Boots and every other chemist makes cough medicine etc with it :-) They think they have the PG VG products cornered everything from ass lube to hair gel. They dont wont you making anything if they can make it for you, at a profit of coarse. Chemists arent what they used to be, they dont even stock litmus paper or make anything on site. Its all done elsewhere and ordered in like ordering a car part at the local car parts shop. Better of using ebay and leave them to selling cosmetics and toiletries. |

Clicked enter 19 hours ago and have just received my flavourings + a free King Albert sample pack. Thats very quick online shopping , I should be mixed up before dinner   Just finished off the King Albert sample, Its a liquorish taste to it that took me by surprise and found it was the only flavour the first couple of drags. The liquorish dies back a bit but is ever present endusing a mouth water combined with a throat hit to simulate a tobacco , |

I have tried the Viva Nova, a vision nano and a standard oxo. Mine dont get warm with the ce4, I cant really say what it could be Ive to use a metal connector to get the ce4 to fit mine, its gives a bit of insulation I suppose. I was a little worried a while back, but its a good hand warmer  I had a spell of whipping the battery out quick to see if it was hot but it hasn't been. Now Ive seen this thread Ill be back to whiping it out again just as I got used to the heat, Id be concerned a lot more if it was getting hot with a the ce4  |

Mine does it with the Igo dripper but its just heat transference through the brass tubbing from the stainless steel kettle.
What top system have you got on it ?

Im on the fence when it comes to backy mixing only ever tried a few with not much success,
Ive just been browsed their site and saw the 3mm silica wic £ a metre, that was enough to push me into ordering the flavours and additive Ive read about in this thread.
Fingers crossed and hoping for a successful batch of tobacco vape in the coming weeks.

Hard cardboard tub containing bottle inside sealed plastic bag with several wraps of bubble wrap making a good safe package, the expiry date being at 2/2015 = another satisfied customer. |

I have steeped (both in PG and VG) ground coffee - straight from the packet using the steeping bags available at www.leisureliquids.com . This worked fine for everything except Espresso - which is a really fine grind that permeated the fine perforations in the steeping bag. Every other blend I tried was great though. Using this method the flavours I got were good. Those steeping bags are a good price. I have some dried out tobacco leaves, might give them a try some time. How fine are the perforations in the bags, like could they be compared to a tea bag? You can get coffee bags and espresso coffee bags, they are calling them coffee pods, I never new that not being a coffee drinker, just saw it on google. |

I have to agree with Perpy on this one! I'm quite new to mixing and if I'd only had you're advice oxo I would have been running for the hills and selling all my mixing stuff on the classies board I regret starting this thread! All I wanted was a 'ball park' figure! Many sites do state what % they recommend their concentrates to be mixed at! And you was give two, 15 and 20 2ml mixes at the chance of wasting 2ml perps said 15 and ends up about 20. So you can see how close the advice was, but its not my pulpit, is it. |

Are your seriously saying that to dilute a very strong concentrate (That by the way will last months) is a labour ??? Inths degree may not be so important for stand alones, But once you start blending your going to have enough inths to make one big unknown, more than lightly unrepeatable because it was slap dash on the basics. Watching what your doing and getting intended results dont take much added effort, IF any, sorry you find it compicated, lots that take up mixing will find its simple. Don't get clever with me please Oxo . . . you've been mixing for a month and now you're an expert. You can make mixing as laborious as you like if it gives you pleasure, new mixers as a rule don't need to be given extra needless complications at this stage. They are mixing for their own personal use, not building a Hadron Collider or supplying the rest of the vaping community at large. We'll beg to differ I think, otherwise I shall get really cross at your most argumentative tone. I dont find it laborious, Ive tried the add a drop at a time, was quite fun savouring the base mix. Im also having fun using my goldilocks method, it gets me in the zone quicker and playing where the flavours are is my cup of tea. If this is the wrong place for me to share my mixing experience make it plain and say so. The world dont spin to the beat of just one drum but if you think yours is the only advise worth listening to, what can I say. |

Ok there you go  Less vapour, unlikely, less flavour, well obviously. At least they tried most sites sell the concentrate and leave you to it. |

I'm only mixing for my own consumption so I'm quite happy to use 'ish' measurements! Ok there you go |

Accuracy! One more bottle wouldn't bother me, Ive a box full, I dont need in this instance as Im using farts. I though you advocated increasing the mix a bit at a time, I was thinking in intensity, I didnt realize you meant volume  ??? If you want to make hard work out of mixing, by labouring over accuracy to the inth degree then that's your choice Oxo. Many of us chose not to complicate the process and direct new mixers to the simplest method of getting a good vapeable result.
