    Explain Your Forum Name

    I have never been asked this before. People usually just take it as is. I chose this nick when I started chatting on IRC (Internet Relay Chat) We called it a Nic, short for nickname. Years before The Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings had reached the big screen, I had already read the books. The...

    Could it be?

    Just vape a strong menthol mix. It will clear that snotty nose up in an instant :D

    Could it be?

    I just don't get sick very often, so I don't even think the "None of the above" applies to me. The list time I got sick about 2 years ago, I had Maleria which put me in hospital for a week. That was definitely not Vape related.

    Cloudless Vapour: Possible Or Not???

    Greetings all you wonderful Vapers, I am going to be very honest with you here. Although I started vaping about 2 years ago, I only kicked cigarettes about 6 months ago and became completely dependent on vaping, but don't tell me that I can't vape on an aircraft on a 5 hour flight to Nigeria...

    Some scale tips and tricks from an old scale technician

    This one isn't :--P But it is a great scale to mix on: There is no warmup time needed. You never have to calibrate it. You never have to zero it. It doesn't have zero tracking to mess you around when working with small weights. It doesn't need batteries or electricity. It works in all...

    Looking to mix it up a little

    Here's the thing: The strawberry is killing the coconut. Sure, I wanted the strawberry to be the lead flavor and the Coconut as the supporting flavor, but damn, I never expected it to take over like that. But I will definitely take your advice. So of I understand you correctly, Coconut Extra at...

    Looking to mix it up a little

    Hi All, I have made a little Sweet Strawberry/Coconut 60% Strawberry, 40% Coconut extra mix last week which tasted great in the beginning. After 3 days of steeping, there was the strawberry. Strawberry galore! It was so sweet I might as well have been vaping pure strawberry concentrate and the...

    Some scale tips and tricks from an old scale technician

    I have seen a lot of people here have that scale. I can't find a manual for it on line. I have contacted the manufacturer and asked them to send me a manual. Preferably a service manual. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. Lets hold thumbs. Best regards and happy vaping.

    Some scale tips and tricks from an old scale technician

    Sure it can. Scales have filtering built in to filter out vibration, air moving over it and other small disturbances. If that is turned off you only need to fart to make it move. my scale also comes with a cage built around the weighing platform to prevent prevent air movement from disturbing...

    Some scale tips and tricks from an old scale technician

    It sounds to me like your scale has an Auto Zero Tracking feature. That can really mess you around when you are trying to weigh in minute quantities like 10mg, but you have the right idea. If you don't tare the scale before you add your super sweet or other strong concentrate, it won't keep...

    First RDA just arrived

    Good for you mate. I hope you have many years of happy vaping from it. A Squonker/RDA is the next thing on my shopping list.

    Some scale tips and tricks from an old scale technician

    If you can't disable the auto off function, try putting the bottle that you intend to mix in onto the scale, but don't tare the scale until you start your mix. Hopefully then it won't auto shut off and it will have time to warm up. Maybe I am old fashioned and have been in the industry too long...

    Some scale tips and tricks from an old scale technician

    I assure you, mine is also well under R10000.00. I don't see the necessity for a ten grand scale for mixing juices. When I did my first ever mix, I put in about 100 mg too much VG but so far it seems to be ok. I will let you know how it turned out after steeping.

    Some scale tips and tricks from an old scale technician

    Greetings fellow vapers, While I am very new to the whole DIY thing, which I am absolutely loving, I have been in the scale industry now for 25 years and counting. In the very short time I have been with you in this forum, I have already learned loads from you and I am still learning. I think...
