Worst buys of 2017!!!

[Hooked]

@Hooked good idea! Let us know how that goes, adding coffee concentrate to it if you do decide to try that out. I love coffee flavours, but the coffee taste needs to be rich and prominent for me.

@Carnival Peeps on this forum will laugh at me now, but I love TopQ Coffee. There's nothing fancy about it - just plain coffee. It's my first-vape-of-the-day juice. I have only 2 bottles left (they're tiny 10ml bottles) and it's difficult to get hold of. When I ask for it at supermarkets/bottle stores, I'm met with a "Huh??".

No one is laughing... TopQ Coffee was one of my GO TO juices when I first started!

I won't laugh at you @Hooked
I also liked Top-Q Coffee! It was great

@Carnival and @CMMACKEM

I agree about Paulies Coffee Cake. It's pleasant and not sweet, which I like, but the coffee taste could be stronger. Perhaps I'll buy some coffee concentrate and add it! It's strange that it's somewhat disappointing though, as it was one of the winners of the 2016 Bakery Award.

I might be bringing in some Smax Mafia Princess which is a coffee cake. One of the best ever made I hear.

I just need to ask some questions on here about the line first.

Why brother? The DR is one of my best buys for 2017.
What dont you like about it brother?

I was using this as a normal RDA.Same juice, same temps and same coils.

The flavor not as good as my Reload RTA. DR RDA became way too hot compared to my Reload.

A lot of spit back and some leaking when I filled it up just below the coils. I know this shouldn't be a con on the RDA but YouTube reviewers have said that there was none of that when filling it this way.

What coils you using brother and where is your coil placement brother?

I was using DNA Staple Staggered Framed Claptons specifically for flavor .09 OHMS.

I watched the YouTube vids by Ambitionz Vaper and Mike Vapes to ensure that my coil placement was correct.

 

[Clouds4Days]

@CMMACKEM im using aliens in mine and have also used fused claptons which worked well.
My coil positioning - if you look through airflow slot you should see bottom of your coils. I will upload a pic so you can see airflow slot and coil placement.

Also i wouldnt fill the rda up with that much juice. Your juice is gonna get very hot even before its gotten to the coil and that's probably why you getting major spitback.

Try a diffrent coil with higher ohms maybe around .20 i think you running it too hot.

Each RDA will have its sweet spot and not all enjoy running hot.
Please give your DR another shot , it really is an amazing RDA.

@CMMACKEM I see that it's VG/PG 90/10. That's unusual, isn't it?

Yeah it is.

@Silver has it and I am now rethinking my order quantity.

SMAX is one of the juices that use TFN. I've only heard good things about their line.

I sold it after the first day. Problem is I only use DNA coils and they are all(bar the standard aliens(.12ohms) 0.9 ohms.

I believe it is fantastic for squonking though.

I will order but based on Silver, I will only order a sample pack(30ml of each flavor) and a 60ml of each flavor just in case it is not flavorsome.

in parklands main road turn right at KFC parking but don't turn in.turn left there's a small tobaconist /vape shop I used to get topQ from on your right as you enter pep on right and tobacconist left.

they also have a shop in the main road to the left of spar parking opposite pep.
I would go to the 1st one I suggested they used to have more variety

@Raindance Thanks for the info - I'll take a look see on Wednesday when I'm in the area.

I’ve had success for the most part, when it comes to my vape gear purchases.

The only bad buy for me, was my Aspire Athos tank. Leaks a lot. But then again maybe it’s something I’m doing, or not doing? I’ve put it away. I don’t want to part with it just yet, despite the leaking issue. Maybe when I have more experience I’ll take it out again and see.

 

[Resistance]

@Carnival As said on the Speeder review : "One thing to be careful with, when refilling, the procedure of closing the airflow, filing the tank, closing and turning upside down before opening the airflow again; must really be done carefully ! "
Since then, no leaking at all on any of the two coils.

I have had great experiences and horrid ones this year , but I have to say my second year of vaping kicked with a bang !

-DNA 75c Paranormal ,( Stopped working within a day of buying it !)
-Dna 166 Therion , ( Door Rattles more than a rattle snake , horrid battery life even with e-scribe tweaking)
-Dna 75c Vt Cigar 26650 ( Hot bottom issues , and its a full of crap chip)
-Sx mini G class ( The chipset is wonderful but i had a first edition .... the paint peeled faster than a smok alien's)
-Goon v1.5 ( was just really meh.... og is king )
-Kylin ( Better known as the colander )
-LMC copper mech ( The value dropped instantly because of the I-joy mech combo)
- Lmc 22 RDA ( Just ,..... Just shite ! )
There are probably a few more but I cant remember !
