haha I saw this on myepack last night...read all the bullet points and thought wow it sounds perfect, checked out the price and HOLY SWEARWORDS BATMAN I have to get me one of these. Needed a new battery anyway after leaving my evod twist in a taxi and stepping on my spinner 2. came on here to see if anyone had anything to say about it and turns out the whole world has one (or four) already.
roll on payday

nice one prrI wasn't particularly fussed with Forest Affair myself, which is why I tried adding the RA in the 1st place. I've tried 4 T Juice flavours now, RA, FA, Melipona, and Colonel Custard, and the RA is the only one I really liked. This mix, however, surpasses even that. |

for me, finding sites like this and realising that the cheap £10 starter kit and horrible ibaccy juices wasn't the be all and end all of vaping has worked wonders. I can't honestly say I wouldn't have gone back to ciggies by now if I hadn't discovered the means to vape lovely, rich, smooth flavoured juices with good quality kit.

Smoking is buying cigs, sparking one up, and smoking it. Vaping is a hobby. Nearest analogues come to it is pipe smokers, with the ritual of cleaning a pipe, and lighting it. But very much less a hobby. Vaping isn't a hobby for everyone though, some just ego and that's it which is fine but I can't see how it can't be an alternative to smoking. you choice to smoke or vape or some do both. How one isn't an alternative for the other goes over my head  To say its it's a means to an end is fine but it's still an alternative to smoking  I'd say the majority of people I know who vape, mostly people in work, just treat it as a direct replacement for smoking. they use cheap ce4 tanks, ego batteries, and stick to one tobacco or menthol flavour. a lad in work was given an itaste for his birthday, but just keeps it set to 3.7v and uses the same old plastic tanks on it. it's a good thing that vaping is so wide ranging, in terms of flavours, strengths, and how far down the hobbyist rabbit hole you want to go. giving people the variety to find just what it is they need will keep more people off the ciggies in the long run. |

I tired re-wicking a stock PT2 coil with cotton wool as my kanthal has yet to turn up, but am still getting the same dead coil taste from it, so I guess either the coil itself is beyond use, or the rubber has burned. the cotton itself is fine, I juiced it before putting the pin back and allowed plenty of time for soaking up.
thought I could take a shortcut to a new head but alas! looking forward to making my own microcoils though when the wire arrives.

12mg Nic from a 54mg 50/50 base. 70/30 PG/VG 18% TPA Apple 12% TPA Cinnamon Danish 1% Sweetener  I like strong flavours, so you could probably knock those percentages down to 12 and 8 and still get a very tasty desert vape. I would recommend keeping the apple / cinnamon danish ratio at 60/40 though in terms of flavour balance. My first attempt was at 50/50 and I felt the apple was lost behind the cinnamon, but this is perfect. Good to go after only 2 days steeping as well. |

Very rarely play games on my mobile, normally can't be bothered with them for more than a day. I downloaded clash of clans about a week ago (android) because a lad in work plays it, I've been addicted ever since. It's perfect for me, it's a strategy game revolving around collecting resources, then using them to build up your village to defend it from attack by other players - typically it means just having a bit of a five minute faff every couple of hours to check up on it, make a few changes etc. anybody else play it, or anything similar? anybody mentions candy crush can shut the door behind them on the way out!  |

So...pretty self explanatory, really. Mix concentrates (or ready mixed juices) in the ratio of 40% Red Astaire 60% Forrest Affair vape happy. |

tried it right up to 4.8v on my evod twist with a 1.8ohm head, so 12.8w.
I've got plenty of other juice to keep me going so will just try and forget about it now for a few more weeks.

9 or 10 days steeped so far and I couldn't help myself, so I put about 2ml in a tank and gave it a try. can't detect any flavour whatsoever? It's got a smoothness to it, and a slight sweetness, but not even a hint of vanilla. the colour has matured into a medium orange. I think this one is going to be a long term project! it was mixed to 25% flavour @ 35/65.
the RA I mixed at the same time, on the other hand, is bursting with flavour. very, very yummy.
