Hi all!

Reverend Dickie "The Cranky Puffer" here. How nice to find some other old farts to hang with. Things feel much more relaxed over here. Mind if I plug in and vape a bit?
Welcome to the porch, Rev!

For those of you that haven't read it, he wrote a hilarious piece on his vaping adventures. Am I a "Toodle Puffer"? Hell no...I'm a "Cranky Puffer!" | E-Cigarette Forum
I gave the KGD to the wife to use on her face.
KGD is a pain to use in the little Kanger Evod coils.
Use the same coils, which I can barely see, lol. I really need new eyeballs. I put a drop of water on the KGD, twirl it into a thread and then stick it through. Let it dry out for a day and good to go.

I'm finding less vapor produced with the new liquid. The difference is that it is 65/35, where others are 60/40. Could be I don't draw long enough to allow the coils to get hot enough to vaporize the liquid. Seems I'm doing it the same way with all of the juices I have. Your input appreciated. Thanks.

Coil 2 days in use. Even my daughter said she saw nothing come out, when she visited.
If you increase pg, & lower vg, you will decrease vapor production. Pg carries flavor & produces some vapor. Vg is where most of the vapor comes from, but also mutes flavor a bit. I use 50/50. And vaping is different from smoking. Use a long, slow draw.

Thanks Patrick! I was waiting for you to get back to me before I ordered titanium wire, so that I had your input on wire size. I ordered just 10 feet of 0.4 mm wire, which is really close to 26 gauge. I ordered from Ti-Wire

Regarding "making the chip do extra work", you should not anthropomorphize inanimate objects such as electronic chips. They don't like it when you do that. :) Just my personal "feeling" about how much power to use: it still seems logical to me to use all available power, and I don't think that doing so decreases the battery any more than using less power. No proof of what I say, I just think it might be true.
I heard that wire is good also. I think it is one of the less springy. When you wrap the coil you can use a curo coiler or master coiler. If you do it by hand it comes out slightly bigger then the size you are wrapping which is no biggie it will just make the resistance about .01 or .02 more because of the springiness. If you use a coiler you can get it to the size you are using then you have to stretch it to make it spaced. I do it both ways and a 5 wrap 3mm spaced on a coiler will come out at .27-.28 by hand it comes out about .29 thats on a STM

Always welcome on the porch - nice comfy rockers abound - just pull one up and pass a yarn or two...

I think I am liking where this is headed! Went outside to have a cig after dinner. Lit the cig, had maybe two puffs. Forgot about it in the ashtray as I was vaping away. Earlier to day I went out for a cig after lunch, started vaping and forgot about the cig. This is getting good!!!

Congrats - Step 1 complete. Wait till you take those two puffs and they gag you because you can't believe you have been putting them nasty things into your mouth... :shock:

Fantastic! You are well on your way to being stinkie free. The changes in your health and tasters will be very rewarding.

That's funny but a very good omen that the stinkies are being left behind for sure. Nice! :thumb:

I'm confused. Aren't stinkies always left from behind? :confused:
