Way to go @RainstormZA!
Thanks!
It wasn't really easy though. I've recently fought off a dream where I was smoking a cigarette. Wtf???
Took all of my willpower not to start again and often reminding myself of the bad taste it will leave in my mouth.
This is why I don't vape tobacco juice, the funny thing is I recently tried a tobacco flavour and hated it.

Coincidence or what?

So peed off.
I finally had contact with Seagate Coventry. They have no record of the hard drive being delivered.
Someone at DHL is lying through their teeth. And instead of emailing me on the issues, they phoned my mom who told them to throw it away because the DHL rep wanted us to pay another R350 to send it back to me.
Gods dammit! Why are people so stupid?
Wtf is wrong with people these days? It states clearly not to phone because I'm deaf and email communication is my priority.
Seagate reps explained that if the parcel was delivered, it would have been stated on my account for records...
I told Seagate to close my case because it's all gone fubar.
/Rant over...

A big shout out to @Humbolt for organising my new Stagevape Venus RDA and wire! Thank you so much!
I am loving the Stagevape Venus RDA so much! Best thing ever invested... Now to save up for the Rage Ohm Boy squonk mod...
I used the stock coils that came with the RDA and gotta say I'm blown away. Vaping at 20w and 0.26 ohms. Very impressed.

Yes but two months was too long. My smoant charon mini is already in the country after a month.
Sooooo I took the plunge and went bought a kak load of stuff from Blck - should be here tomorrow or Wednesday.
Soon I will be happy mixing.... woo hoo!

Cant wait to see what you come up with, should be interesting
Lemon cream cronutCant wait to see what you come up with, should be interesting
Going to try make a blackberry custard
And strawberries to supplement my current boring bland strawberry juice.
So lets see
Finally got my concentrates, VG and PG.
Got to mixing the strawberry mix first - added to my existing boring Cap Sweet Strawberry with Strawberry (Ripe) Flavor Concentrate (TFA) and
Strawberry Concentrate SC (RF). Something wasn't right so I left it to steep for a couple of hours and then smelled it. Slightly better so I'm guessing it may need a longer steeping time. Will see how this turns out.
I also got Cap Juicy Lemon on @KZOR's advice - turned out to be the best decision made. Mixed with Vanilla Custard, Sweet Cream and Zeppola. OH MY!!! This gets as close to the Elysian Labs Lemon Cream Cronut but 50% less sweet. Will leave this to steep for a while before trying again. It has a really nice sour lemony twang to it, complimented with the sweet vanilla custard and sweet cream.
I decided to do the same with CAP Blackberry and it turned out better than I expected. Definitely needs more blackberry but still very nice and light. Added WS23 Black Ice - lets see how this turns out after a steeping period.
I still have the Peppermint Crisp as an ADV, nothing beats it.
I dared myself to try something unique - I added two flavours to my RDA at the same time. The Lemon to one side and the blackberry to the other side of the wicks. A completely perfectly meshed mashed up flavour of both worlds in one - it was quite different, I am still not sure if I like it or dislike it. I also feel that the blackberry will benefit greatly with the addition of some sweet red apple, it would definitely compliment it very well.
I feel that the Lemon juice would benefit from a bit of sweetening up - not sure if I should add more vanilla custard and sweet cream or should I just get super sweet?

Go the Super Sweet route, adding more of the others will throw off the flavor.

Hi @RainstormZA
Curious as to what you are using at the bottom of your atty to keep the 510 from scratching? Got my Cylon over the weekend and the 510 is scratched already... (i despise scratches).
Thanx in advance...
Template cutout of the atty cover to size of a coffee filter. @Rob Fisher uses plastic ready made - not sure where he gets his from.
Might be overkill with super sweet. It's a lot better after steeping but still has the lemon bitter note.
OK I'll order super sweet and start small.
