JDMVtec vape updates and NET updates

[JdmVtec]

Hi All,

Been quiet for a bit and seeing as everyone was so helpful with me getting set up thought it was time for an update.

Still using my Voopoo Argus g pod system for daily work and walk around. I’ve changed from 0.7 coils to 0.5. Still running 16w but the flavour as increased dramatically. I’m only vaping either La Tabaccherica Kentucky or Ecig organic for pod. A coil is lasting around 20ish days and that’s being hammered daily. I want to try the Virginia so bad but Naturevape have no stock. I’m getting 3 x 60ml bottles from one 10ml concentrate. So it’s a proper NET tobacco coming in about £7.50 a bottle for 60ml which I think is an absolute bargain. Specially when the coils are lasting so long. One 60ml bottle lasts me about a month give it take.

My Innokin coolfire z80 is going very very well. I’ve sold my innokin zlide top tank and the zenith 2 tank as since ice bought my RTAs they were completely redundant due to only vaping NET tobacco liquids. Those coils won’t perform well or cost a fortune to run with NET at arnt meant for stock coils.

I use my 451 RTA with harsher or bolder flavoured NET liquids as that tank mellows the liquids out somewhat being so smooth but delivering excellent flavour. I use the Kayfun x clone for all Virginia style liquids as it brings the sharpness and makes the liquids a bit harsher which is good.

Liquid wise I’m so deep down a rabbit hole I can’t see the daylight anymore lol. I’ve currently bought :

La Tabaccherica Virginia
La Tabaccherica Burley
La Tabaccherica Virginia grand reserva
Juice cabin concentrate Greek basma
Juice cabin concentrate El chapo
Juice cabin concentrate Latakia firecured
Juice cabin concentrate Organic American Virginia flue cured

All of those are from concentrate and been mixing these myself . It’s costing for juice cabin £6.84 per 60ml inc nic shots, pg/vg and a fresh bottle each time. However I’m stopping buying bottles now as I have loads kicking around.

The La Tabaccherica concentrates are slightly more expensive but I don’t mind because of the quality. They’re around £8 per 60ml.

All my mixes are nic salts 9mg and 50/50.

Plus add what I have already in the cupboard:

Drakes fire cured Virginia short fill 3mg
Drakes Havana reserva short fill 3mg
La Tabaccherica extra dry4 pod Florence longfill 9mg
La Tabaccherica extra dry4 pod New York longfill 9mg

From now on I will only buy concentrates and mix myself mainly based on price but I do find mixing enjoyable and therapeutic. If you’re thinking about mixing your own liquids just do it. It’s fun it saves loads of cash in the long run. You know exactly what’s in your mixes. Yes you don’t get a flashy label but I don’t care about that. I have white sticky labels and I label all my mixes with with various info on them. Get some scales and weigh the liquids out it’s so much quicker and easier. My biggest achievement to date is to actually make Golden Virginia in vape form. I mean it smells exactly the same, it’s tastes as close as your gunna get from a vape. It took a few attempts but I’ve cracked it and it’s amazing. It what I was hunting for over the last 3 years. I’m super happy I managed to do that. I totally done with any synth tobacco flavours. You will never get that tobacco flavour you long for from a synth.

So currently I’m loving the vape life. Have a stupid big collection of liquids. Like probably well over six months supply. I’m gunna start running down the stock I have. Once I’ve done that il be looking to try drake’s concentrates and various Italian ones at some point. So thanks for the help. You all created a monster.

Nice to see you are enjoying the Drake's and La Tabaccheria NETs.

If you haven't done so, take a look at the La Tabaccheria website and click on the 'guidelines and tips' link.
It looks like they have expanded alot recently on the dilution rates for their 10ml concentrates as they relate to ADV and what they refer to as 'Tasting vaping'.The link to follow is : TOBACCO EXTRACTS LINE.
They have put up tables for most of the range.
A month or so back I followed their advice and mixed up some Mata Fina and Black Cavendish both @ 5% 50/50 6mg for an all day vape and put into my XROS pods.
After 2/3 weeks I pulled the pods apart and removed the cotton to reveal very clean mesh strips.
I am sure there was another 2/3 weeks I could of got out of the mesh but the cotton probably not so.

Enjoy.
Cheers.

Hey John, it seems like we have the same taste, my all day vapes are La Tabacceria dry for Pod Kentucky and E Cig, I have mixed up most of the other flavours from LT but prefer these two, it is a little worrying that Naturevape has been saying "sold out" on a lot of the LT concentrates for some time now and I'm concerned that now I've found my favourites I wont be able buy them in the UK and have to ship them from Italy, whilst Drakes and Juice Cabin are indeed quality liquids, for me, there's nothing that hits the spot like LT, btw I use pods and VG 70/30 and pods are lasting well over a week with the 4pod range before flavour diminishes

 

[Netvaper]

^^ If you haven't drop Mark at Naturevape an email about LT stock, he's an agreeable chap.

 

[Xinte]

Thanks Mr Net, I have emailed Mark and spoken to him on the phone, he's saying that LT is concentrating more on the 4pod range and he's had difficulty getting stock, he also put a video out on youtube recently explaining this and his upcoming house move and resulting closure for a little while

Hi Xinte, I can tell you Naturevape are around 6 weeks away from a new order. Marks stocks are low on all the dry4pod/ organic 4pod ranges. From podcasts that Naturevape has done he has several issues. One is minimum order value, two is he has to have labels made and applied to whatever concentrate he’s buying for legislation and there’s minimum print runs, three LT are not quick at shipping orders. This could be waiting on batches to finish and bottle, or just bottling for Mark.

So either I buy 4 bottles or more of organic4pod to counteract shortages but I’m also out of Virginia organic4pod now.

What I’ve done now is move away from pod devices completely to a AIO with a choice of tanks. One tank is a RBA and one tank is for prebuilt coils. This way in flexible in regards to liquids and the AIO is small, inoffensive, just like a pod kit. It’s worth the investment imo.

I’m nursing the last of the Virginia organic4pod. Now I’m mainly vaping the standard ranges such as basma, oriental, Virginia gran reserva etc. If I’m honest I love organic4pod range for the easiness of the prebuilt coil but the original range and the gran reserva range flavour wise is blowing the organic range out of the water.

I’m rewicking every 4 to 5 days which to me is acceptable for a rba. Pre built coils with the 4pod range lasts me around 4 weeks ish.

I’m done with drakes, I only like the Greek basma and the organic Virginia from juice cabin (dark star). LT for me has the best flavours and depth of flavour depending on your mix obviously.

Least now I’m not thinking of going direct to LT because it’s expensive and hassle and shipping sucks since we left the EU. I feel people if they wanna stick to LT concentrates have to be slightly flexible which how it’s done.

Hi again Mr Vtec, I totally get the reasons Mark is having problems with his stock, he does try his hardest to keep us all supplied but it must feel like a losing battle, I have so many devices and kits, some very pricey, some cheap as chips, but for some very odd reason I just love my Da One vape range (must be something about the Italians!) and it is my go to, of course with the pods, I really need to use the organic 4pod range, both for the longevity of the pods and also I mix to a very viscose VG 80/20, but I do treat myself to the Gran Reserva range with my Bishop tank or my innokin or Aspire stock coil tanks, I don't know if you watch Net Vaper (Nathan) on you tube but he has been comparing The Juice Cabin range he still has from when Les was alive to the new Dark Star versions and he said he can tell the difference, there's a few I used to buy from Les but don't think I'll bother now, I have made numerous orders from a Da One retailer in Italy and it has a set shipping rate of 18 euros and arrives in 3 days, not too bad considering, and they have the La Tabacceria range, although I am still getting my head round what they call the different LT ranges in Italy compared to what they are called here, never been much of a Drakes fan, I like to mix with ingredients that I have fully researched and tried and anything that you just add nic too, isn't for me unfortunately
