    PDIB's Making MODs!

    They are about to start selling ready wires (titanium R/nickel NR). I wonder how they got around the shifting resistance. Perhaps the titanium wire readily available is not made in such a way to have even distribution/density, and thus causes the ohms to jump around? Could they have sourced a...

    Yes, place them on the new cup.

    "In 1014 Basil was ready to launch a campaign aimed at destroying Bulgarian resistance. On 29 July 1014, Basil II and his general Nikephoros Xiphias outmanoeuvred the Bulgarian army, which was defending one of the fortified passes, in the Battle of Kleidion. Samuel avoided capture only through...

    Natural Tobaccos - Part Deux

    It wasn't like that when I had these, back in the 1989-1992 period. I think they were about 30% more than a pack of Camels. I'm not sure how they can even be selling these in the US. AFAIK, there are no longer analog imports. But if there is a loophole, this is the "loophole premium" I suspect.

    She's an import, so as far as I know, is not sold in the US, but I do (strangely enough) see them on websites, for ridiculous prices, of course. Like here.

    The best analog I ever had in my brief smoking stints over the last 25 years was the filterless Turkish Special. It was oval shaped, and just about as smooth as an analog could get. Any NET that is a Turkish (or Turkish-ish) extract always ends up in my shopping cart. Anybody else ever try...

    Atmistique Atomizers

    Do you have other ceramic cups? I would try swapping that out as well. Those can be off spec at times. CE2 cups are mass produced, so a small percentage will be off spec, and can create these problems. I can send you a few to swap out and see if that addresses this - I have the original singles...

    Writing from work, so I don't have them in front of me, but it was a dark brown, one of the darkest of the 7 bottles I got.

    OK, I'll store the bottle away and open it for New Year's Eve, then.

    I'll guess mimetic polyalloy held in place by a magnetic containment field, fed via reconfigurable carbon nanotube substrate. Both can be dry-burned and rebuilt remotely via a smartphone app. Titanium and rayon are sooooo last week.

    I'm with you, just spent the evening trying out the 7 GeJ juices I just received. The one that really rubbed me the wrong way was Vita Bella. Really not my thing, but I already know who will be receiving this bottle, as palates that will enjoy this kind of vape will go bonkers over it IMO. Not a...

    Must... resist... urge... to butcher... one of... my... Origens... I suspect this is as much a matter of preference as atty design. But the Origen really is built for those vertical coils, and the space really lends itself optimally to dual verticals, so I'm not surprised that using it with...

    Funny, I was reading these lines as I took my very first vapes of my just-received first-ever bottle of Acadia Gold.

    FWIW, since someone mentioned GeJ took their time sending their shipment: I ordered on Friday when the sale was posted here, my package is already waiting with my doorman!

    Sabot DDD for the Billet Box

    I'm not your typical customer, I'm very tiny-friendly, even with my non-delicate appendages. I'm also very used to Diver use, so for me these things are second nature. I imagine someone new to both will likely prefer the Sabot. We shouldn't discount the convenience of not needing to zap wires...

    Argh. On top of ordering a gas tank's worth of juice for GeJ at 50% off, I ordered another gas tank's worth from Want2vape and Ethervapes. I blame every one of you. Every. Single. Last. One.

    I'm going to try to ignore the Valentine's Day Origen Massacre pics, so I don't lapse into a state of dysphoric catatonia... I did my second BF build on my v2 Origen. It is now nearly identical in vape profile to my Cyclone running the exact same dual coil 28g 0.6 ohm build. The trick is to...

    Your CNC guy is gonna hate you! Curvy = difficult with higher failure rates. An alternative would be the shape of the Eviva-T by Atmistique, squared shoulders. Unless you hate the aesthetic, it is easier to cut. Edit: just saw your current top cap, I am a morrrrrron.
