    A lot of the vanilla flavors I've found (commercial vanilla) are combinations of the following (some or all of them):
    Vanilla French Vanilla Bavarian Cream Vanilla Custard And, some also include a pastry flavor like cake or doughnut
    Sadly, you'll have to do some trial-and-error mixing to find the ingredients and ratios, so work in small batches of 5ml until you figure out the ratios and ingredients

    Fancythat1 got a reaction from jasonculp in Coil Winders   
    Wow, thanks for the suggestions guys. I just called my local Mr. Vapor and they sell the Kuro. I'll see if that fits well (they're pretty cool there and may let me give it a try before I buy it). If that doesn't work for me, I'll just buy online and hope for a better fit. ^^
    Wow...I just hit that link and those are some crazy coils. I could get into ACTUALLY using it as intended with the way those look. :P

    There are many coil winders out there now, but if you have pain, then only you can decide which one will work the best for you. What works for someone else may bring you lots of pain due to the need for manual dexterity in holding on to the winder while making the coil. I know because I have arthritis in my hands and fingers.
    That said, I think the Q-coiler might work for you? It's a little bigger than the pen style so it's easier to hold on to. It's the one I prefer rather than the Kuro winders.
    You may have to just try some to find out. Good luck to you!

    Those CE4 tanks are disposable... and they are usually good for a week or maybe two (if juices are not thick/sweet/dark). When they start to draw "hard", it's time to toss it. You can sometimes extend the life by soaking them overnight in a shot-glass full of Vodka, and then letting them air-dry for a day, but that doesn't always work, and is not really worth it, since they are so cheap... you can get a dozen on eBay for $10-15, and some sites run deals on them from time-to-time where you can get them in bulk for ~ $1 each.

    The battery is probably just fine, and will work well with your other tanks (eGo or 510 threaded).

    Have you tried the battery with other tanks?

    Yep, I'd say the low vapor production was just a factor of low-charge. Those 650mAh batteries just won't last all day for me... When I had a pair of them, I would blow through both in a day, so one was always on the charger I gave them away to a friend as a starter-kit to help her get off analogs.

    The 1100mAh batteries I currently use as back-ups will last all day, give or take, so any batteries I buy now have to be 1100mAh at a minimum. There's nothing wrong with the smaller batteries, and I do appreciate the size (nice and compact), but I prefer to carry 1 or 2 larger mAh batteries, rather than 3 or 4 smaller ones, when I'm going to be away from home all day or on an overnight trip.

    You could always direct drip with a prebuilt atomizer, that would be a cheaper alternative and much less expensive. There is a learning curve in how to use these successfully, but it's less of a learning curve than learning all about Ohm's Law, getting an RDA, wire, wick, ohm meter, torch, etc.

    http://www.vapelite.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=22_47&products_id=62

    This is one that I learned on. These days I use an RDA but mostly, I use the Cisco Spec Hybrid HH.357 atomizers: http://www.avidvaper.com/hh-357-cisco-spec-hybrid-atomizers/

    The HH.357s are not what I'd call "affordable" at a minimum of $22 each whereas the first link's atomizer is $2.50 each but you also get what you pay for.

    What you're referring to is an RDA (rebuildable dripping atomizer)? If so, yes, that is good for changing flavors quickly... just re-wick, and change flavors.

    However, if you are not mechanically inclined to build your own coils, do not have a firm grip on Ohm's law, and do not wish to expend at least $100 on necessary components/supplies... RDA's may not be the best option.

    If all you're after is being able to change flavors at the drop of a hat... I would suggest multiple tanks (of the same type or style). Personally, I have RDA and RTA, Mechanical MODs, VV/VW batteries, and standard eGo's... but I also rotate through more than 16 tanks... some with the same flavor in them so I can keep vaping without refilling... some with different flavors so I can change when I feel the need for something different... some with different Nicotine strengths, for that morning "lift", and lower-levels so I can sleep more soundly.

    Multiple tanks may seem extreme, but I doubt many on this forum have fewer than 6 of any given tank, just for the purpose of different flavors (or convenience). Plus, half-a-dozen tanks will cost you FAR less than getting into RDA's.

    Don't think I'm trying to stop you from RDA's... no, the flavor and vapor production can be amazing from them... but safety is first, and I always want to point out the cost-factor too. You can get a decent RDA, Mech Mod, high-quality batteries, wire, Ohm-meter, cotton, etc. for all under $100 if you're careful. But if all you want is convenience to change flavors... additional tanks may be the better route?

    We are always looking to improve our store even it it means the littlest changes, I noticed you mentioned "strength or flavor" It never really crossed my mind before but if you were confused by it, so are/will others. I'm going to change this text to "Nicotine Strength" to makes things clear for you and future customers

    As for vendors, most on the board are legitimate and top notch, if they're not, the forum members pitchforks will come out faster than you can imagine. They're outed pretty quickly

    I've personally purchased from several of our vendors here. I've had nothing but good service and quality products from them. Mostly I'm taking advantage of specials, discounts, or sales they have posted for forum members, but I do feel better by supporting those who take the effort to support our forum. Regardless of where I buy my products, though, I will check inventory on our supporting vendor's sites first to compare prices.

    Sweet-vapes gets a lot of my business because their shipping is pretty fast and prices are on-par with others, but if I'm not in a hurry, I don't mind taking advantage of lower pricing from our Chinese-based sellers, too... just be aware of the 4-8-week shipping times from China.

    I am glad you asked this, because I have been curious. I assumed since the board was owned and supported by the Vapor Talk Store that all the vendors were reliable and of the highest quality. I have only bought from the Vapor Talk store, Sweet-Vapes, and Fadora. I have had excellent service from Vapor Talk and Sweet-Vapes.

    Fadora on the other hand, has gone above and beyond. Comp has probably lost money dealing with me, if you calculate the amount of time he has put in helping me.

    I understand that as anything else, you are taking a risk dealing with any new vendor. I have been lucky so far and have not had many problems with any of the online retailers that I have dealt with. I usually check them out pretty good, here and on other boards on the web. I try to stay away from Ebay, and only use Fastech when I need something slowly.

    @Earthling789, thanks for reinforcing my assumptions about the vendors!
