I've been vaping for 7 years. I've vaped on just about everything. Rebuild tanks with ribbon wire, countless RDAs, countless tanks, mech mods, regulated mods, squonk boxes... I even made a 4x18650 parallel mod. I was in charge of putting a vape section in a head shop. I've bought juice, I've made juice.
