    Vaping with Vic cleaned out

    So it seems us Saffies aren't the only ones who have to deal with thieving scumbags. This seems to be an increasing risk for reviewers. This was done by vapers, they took the expensive mods and left the cheap stuff behind. Now when reviewers go on air and put impressive displays of gear...

    The millennial drop in sex rate

    Hi all I just read this article which I found very interesting. Apparently this has been reported quite extensively in the media over the past few years but I'm a bit dof so I'm only catching up now. Anyway, the executive summary is that sex rate is down across Western societies and across all...

    The rise (or fall?) of unflavoured juice

    Hey all I've just been reading through the 2018 National Youth Tobacco Survey which was done by the CDC in the US. Natch, it rambles on about the "epidemic of teen vaping" and also addresses the importance of flavours in juice. This excerpt in particular caught my eye: It's not the 67.8%...

    New FA flavours

    He's baaaaaack. After a long hiatus, Concrete has kicked off again with a review of the new FA flavours. The Dragonfruit seems like a winner, the rest are a mixed bag. Still, I'm looking forward to trying these.

    How long do flavours last?

    Wayne addresses the elephant in the room: This is an interesting area for me. If you buy wholesale from the flavour companies, they deliver the flavour in a bottle that has an expiry date printed on it. When flavours are rebottled, as Wayne says, you get no indication. So there are always...

    Profile posts

    Heya peeps One of my favourite activities when logging into the forum is to check the forum section on the right-hand side of the main page for New Profile Posts. I have to admit, there is a bit of schadenfreude involved in this because, among other things, the 'published' posts (i.e. those...

    Somebody show this to Flavorah or Wonder Flavours

    You just know they want to make these flavours. I guess we could get quite close to these with existing flavours. Except for that cheese one at the end. :D And Part 2:

    FA Pazzo one-shots

    Hello all FA are at it again with the blends. After the e-motions range (Metaphor, Cocoon, etc) and then the FA UK blends, have FA finally delivered some blend/one-shot type flavours that actually work? According to Wayne, they may have. Imagine my surprise that FA have released the world's...

    A DIY Primer

    Hi all A lot of new people are entering the DIY scene. It can be quite a daunting prospect and the new DIYer usually has a lot of questions that need to be answered. I've put together a relatively brief primer which addresses most of those questions and gives some pointers on the key decisions...

    National poll on tobacco harm reduction

    Hello all, News24 recently published the results of a public poll that was conducted by Milward Brown on tobacco harm reduction. Original article here. While the results of the poll are encouraging to vapers, the poll was funded by Philip Morris. And it shows in the poll findings. Let's take...

    Cole-Bishop fails to pass

    http://vaping.org/press-release/democrat-leaders-celebrate-industry-saving-cole-bishop-amendment-killed-budget-deal/ It's not the end of the road. Conley hopes that Trump will intervene, and there is still Duncan Hunter's proposal to amend the Tobacco Control Act. But I can't see either of...

    3D printing coil jigs

    Hello all I've been hearing recently about guys who are making their own Clapton jigs using 3D printers. Upon further searching I found this page which seems to contain 3D files for a number of jigs, some of which require a drill and others which operate manually. Some of them look pretty cool...

    Another vape fire - but this time it's actually funny

    From News24. Yeah, whatever, dude. The thing I'll remember is that a lawyer was defending a client accused of arson - and his pants caught fire. It gives new meaning to the old rhyme "Liar, liar, pants are on fire"...

    2017, recipe fade and DIY concentrates

    Hello all, warning: wall of text ahead. Apologies in advance but I needed to outline my thoughts fully on this and get it off my chest. So Wayne's last few videos of 2016 unsurprisingly paint a rather bleak picture of the hardware scene in vaping while enthusing that DIY is on the up and will...

    Changing premix ratios

    Hi all Following a question from @kev mac which I answered regarding premixes, some folks have expressed interest in how to tackle this common problem of how to change your premixes. You bought 50VG/50PG premix from a vendor but now you want to mix at 70VG/30PG or whatever, how on earth do you...

    Big pharma enters vaping

    I've just watched a very interesting vlog in which Enyawreklaw outlines his recent commissioning by big pharma to design a few juice recipes for them. It's not in his regular vaping videos, it's in his Test video for the gaming part of DoD. Anyway, the essence is that a big pharma company...

    Mo' Mooch

    More advice and insight from Mooch regarding batteries. Very interesting to hear his anecdote that he doesn't marry batteries.
