VC Vape Mail 2025

Happy New Year All! Some recent arrivals that I can’t wait to start mixing with. From Bull City Flavors:


From Nom Nomz:

So far I’ve used the Nom Nomz Banana, the Raspberry Jam and the VSO Pumpkin. The Raspberry Jam is delicious but at 1.75% with 0.25% TPA Raspberry Sweet, it covered up most of the bakery in one of my mixes. I’m working on a Pumpkin Spice Waffle recipe with the VSO Pumpkin and FLV Pumpkin Spice, but it’s not quite there yet. I can’t wait to try all of these!

HiYa @whthek - first of all, full credit needs to go to the original creator, Foment_life, of the recipe that I’ve been trying to adapt:

Blueberry Eggos - View Recipe

Here’s the last version I mixed with substitions:
MB Classic Belgian Waffle @ 2.8%
SSA Crisp Waffle @ 0.25%
CAP Golden Butter @ 1.0%
FA Maple Syrup @ 1.33%
VSO Pumpkin @ 0.50%
FLV Pumpkin Spice @ 1.0%
FW Sucralose @ 0.5%
TPA Vanilla Swirl @ 2.5%

My test notes said “After steep pumpkin spice has mellowed to background note and can’t taste much waffle, butter, or maple. At 0.25% the SSA is “burning” the recipe. Reduce pumpkin spice, needs more work, not a keeper as is.”

I use the Cosmic Truth Flavor Calculator and ELR Median mix quantities to substitute flavors, and subbing both FW Waffle and TPA Belgian yields a total of 4.875% MB CBW. I think my next version will be:

MB Classic Belgian Waffle @ 4.875%
SSA Crisp Waffle - deleted
CAP Golden Butter @ 1.0%
FA Maple Syrup @ 1.33%
VSO Pumpkin @ 0.25%
FLV Pumpkin Spice @ 0.5%
FW Sucralose @ 0.5%
TPA Vanilla Swirl @ 2.5%

I have higher hopes for this…

You’re right in the ballpark, with my fave waffle CBW-MB, though I’ve not pushed past 4% with it. Have you considered trying Waffle with Butter-SSA, @CaptainKirk ? It’s butter forward, with waffle in the back. It might allow you to eliminate the GB-CAP, or perhaps cut back on it. Nonetheless, your V2 looks good, and I’d like to hear your thoughts on how it comes out for you.

HiYa B - I don’t have SSA Waffle w/ Butter, so I adjusted the recipe, above a bit more - cut the CBW back to 3.75%, reduced the Butter to 0.5%, the Maple to 1.0%, and Pumpkin and Pumpkin Spice to 0.5% each. In the tester (mixed just now), I actually smell all the main notes. I have high hopes and I’ll test in a week, even though my steep notes say two! Keep ya’ posted!

Not a Vape Mail, or at least, not yet.

I’ve got my eye on the Hellvape Trishul V2 Mech Mod, and man, this thing is wild. It’s got that old-school mech tube look but with a chip inside—best of both worlds? Maybe. The idea of a regulated safety net in a hard-hitting tube really speaks to me.

But here’s the real question—has anyone actually used one? Is it as good as it looks? Would you recommend it, or is this just a mech mod having an identity crisis? Let me know!

I don’t own a Trishul, however, it looks like it’s been reviewed a lot:

And Sorteal has an excellent video on contact switches:

And Hellvape has a video on turning the Trishul into a full mech mod, if you wish…

Thanks out to @lynda again for the bargain pricing on these. After I reviewed the mini, and the extension kit, it was too good to pass up on …


Even though it’s not 100% matchy matchy, something about the blue …

That looks great

I went ahead and ordered it. The idea of being able to switch between full mech and semi mech really got my blood flowing. I think my Goon will look sick on it.

I’m dying to see where these go - Lemon Tart clone or Butter Cookie clone? Love to see a recipe come out of these SD!

@CaptainKirk I was going to see if I could improve this one. It’s already pretty damned good, so I’m not making any promises. :slight_smile:

Thanks for that. I just received CAP LMP V1, which gave me most of the ingredients for one of the Dinner Lady Lemon Tart recipes, that I just mixed today for the first time. Unfortunately, I believe both my CAP Lemon Sicily and FA Custard look spoiled, but I mixed 'em up anyways. Taste test soon.

Some MTL from VV and Thunderhead, and since @Lynda_Marie was talking sweet about Bams OG Cannoli, decided to see what was up with it. :slight_smile:

Client kits, SD, or should we expect reviews? Nice haul!

@whthek the Berserker was for a client, but the Thunderhead’s mine. I know I have a few review samples inbound, so time will be ehhh, like always, but I WOULD like to review the TH Elite.
