Prepare to be stunned.
Iām going home today so it should be there waiting for me
Iāve nearly bought Andromeda so many times in the past hahaā¦swerved.
Hmmm. I didnāt spend that much time at the bnm shops so my experiance is limited. First omg horrible was finding out the ejuice I purchased was a zero nic instead of 8mg and I was trying to quit smokingā¦to top it off the store and manufacturer were zero help. First omg great taste moment was trying my first subohm tank (aspire Atlantis)ā¦it unlocked the flavors.
Next omg disappointment was tasting an apple ejuice in the shop and buying a 30ml bottle to find it lacking in flavorā¦so I started digging into something called āsteeping.ā My steeping research unlocked DIY for me and everything else.
Made my first mod, battery, and charger purchase. Continued reading every possible thread on DIY. After a month of reading jumped into DIY.
Next worste omg flavor was the standard ā¦none of my mixes were working while every raved about the latest HIC recipie and so on. Turned out what I was trying to mix would never work for me while it worked just fine for 1000 other people.
After that it has been never ending happiness. Fingers crossed, havnt had to dump a mix in a very long timeā¦few fixerāupers but all goodā¦Atleast vapable
This is what turned me to buying expensive concentrates. Nothing against other mixers, but I just donāt get hardly any flavor from a lot of TPA, CAP and FW. Highly concentrated was the way for me.
yeah I should change mine, after posting this thread Iāve remembered a couple of things, like you my first OMG moment wasnāt just trying Mothers Milk the first time but actually I bought my first Kanger sub tank at the same time I bought my first bottle of MM, so it was a real WOW moment and definitely what kicked me off properly on the whole vape 'thangā
and I also remembered the first time I bought a Mechanical from fasttech, I mean I knew nothing and really shouldnāt of been messing about with it with so little knowledge, anyway, no pole markings on it, Just presumed the batts went in opposite, but they were meant to be parallel, couldnāt work out why it was getting so hot, then the batts swelled, couldnāt get it out, one starting hissing so I had to launch the whole thing out of the window (face palm) I was lucky, but never again did I mess with anything like this without knowing what I was doing lol
It would need itās own thread. Iāll try and put a list togetherā¦ hopefully I wonāt step on anyoneās foot in the process. Maybe I can set it up for each vaper to put up their favorites. We have a Recommended Research List, but a lot of them I donāt use.
That would be cool, Iāve only been mixing for a year so Iāve barely moved from the ābig 3ā as you call them, Iāve just used a couple of INW which I like a lot and a few more oddities like One on One, DV, T juice and Vapable, but I bow down to the knowledge from people on this forum, I can cook but Iām no chef
Youāre on the right path. You ask questions and absorb info from the replies. We are all different, so youāre sure to get a lot of views. Weāve all been there. DIY is a process, and you will get to where you want to be.
A lot of people have made a lot of money and web fame from the āBig 3ā. Theyāre just not my 1st choice for most flavors I like to use. I actually feel like the odd man out, because not many vapers actually share my view of vaping and diy liquids. I just do what works for me.
Lol. I remember a back and forth discussion on that very topic and not that many jumped in. My best mixes sit at the 5-8% range with only a couple that sit at the 15-18 just because I canāt seem to find the flavors from the other three (FA, mf, INW)
Iād be really interested in that too if you get the time to do it.
Best OMG moment: trying a friendās Innokin Coolfire IV (with whatever tank Innokin ships with it in a kit), and some unknown bubblegum juice. I wouldnāt normally even try bubblegum, but this was amazing and smooth, and I canāt wait to try it with my favourite flavours.
Worst OMG moment: has yet to happen. Thereāve been some boring juices/hardward but thatās about it so far.
best- trying my brothers tfv4 back when those were up and comingā¦ with a banana nut bread-ish flavor
worst was over using lychee (tpa)ā¦ itd be the definition of what cat pee probably would vape like
I have been vaping since 1/1/13, started with them cough,gag,cough, Blucigs at the gas stations, stuck with it till the egoās, kangertanks, etc.
But my Best moment was when I found ELR, and my worst moment was when I made my 1st juice, puke!!!
thatās what got me on vaping first, was a blu e-cig. the counter guy was likeā¦ I donāt think these things even work but eh haha
