Not really, I mixed it at the recommended 22% and to be fair I'm not getting a nice strong anything

Also noticed that Focalecig used to stock a similar (if not the same) one so I've PM'd Foclecig to see what she knows, my biggest concern is the seal around the bottle, it doesn't look or feel very good and could be the reason that this one has had juice floating around inside

Has anyone seen/tried one of these before? I got this the other day, it has obviously not been looked after and has signs of a leak (but still powers up OK) My next job (after I find the right size allen key) is to strip & clean it, but just wondering what anyone knows of it, I've never heard of this one before, it's a Yi Loong 40w vw squonker (but the manual also mentions TC), seems to be based on a VapourFlask
Found a website for it here

Agreed the strawberry needs a boost, I've got the original recipe here, it's been steeping exactly 3 months today and I'm still waiting for the WOW moment, I dont think it's coming

So Q what did you find to be the best toffee mix ? The jury is still out, I really need to get back into toffee mode, I have been preoccupied with custard recently

120ml Nice Custard Cream Something very strange is happening, I have gone from not liking custards to producing 3 variants of my own (90ml of each), 450ml Kreeds Kustard, and this 120ml tonight... all in the space of a few weeks

Had the chance to try a couple of these and first impressions are VERY good. Gin & Tonic: An interesting one for me to try having never drank the drink, Gin has never passed my lips, but having tried this I may have to succumb to Mothers ruin Mixed this at the recommended 10% in my usual 50/50 no nic mix, smelled divine, tested after 24 hours and I was amazed at the depth of flavour, I consider myself to be a strong mixer normally, and using 10% was very alien, but as I say after 24 hours it tastes very good, I'll report back once it has had a little steep Will be here when it's back in stock
Forest Fruits:This is more like my usual flavour pattern but like the G&T above it's strength amazed me, again mixed at 10%, 50/50 zero nic and tested after 24 hours, this has to be the most natural forest fruit flavour I have found, you can taste the blackberries as if they were real. This will certainly be on my list to order next time. All this and it is PG free for all you max VG lovers Find it here
Thanks to Chefs Flavours Lew & Chefs Vapour Karl for allowing me to try these

Which scales did you go for Q These ones mainly because you can customise (or turn off) the auto shutoff

Thanks jtc but a little too late (and expensive) I went for the one from cream supplies in the end. And I already have the bottle tops sorted, I bought a load of these bottles from Gearbest, the caps are interchangable with the 100ml concentrates from Chefs so I have bottles AND pourers.

I ordered a squonker today as well, shock/horror... I've only ordered it from a UK supplier (must be sickening for something)

and a quick 90ml of Smurf Soup before bedtime Think I might have to invest in some scales, drawing 225ml of VG in a syringe half killed me tonight Can't beat scales imo Best purchase I've made for mixing Been looking at some, the 0.01 - 500g seem to be the most popular.. except that 500ml of juice will weigh more than 500g, so I then looked at 0.1-1000g but I'm concerned about losing that decimal point

Finally got all the kit for kreed 's Kustard, so I've mixed a 450ml tester and 10ml each of FlavorMonks Gin & Tonic and Forest Fruit, (I was sent a 1ml sample of each so mixed at 10% as recommended)
