    Yeah, the Manta2 was/is a good atty. But there were improvements that could have been made. Unfortunately, the project was abandoned. Also, there were a couple other attys at the time getting more hype, by a couple wanna be reviewers. The Manta could have been a great atty, with some refining.

    I agree. The business decisions some of these modders make are astounding, sometimes. The bf community was practically begging for another Stumpy run. He could have sold them as fast as he could produce them. Same with Nareg and MEB. I've seen M Attys go for $1k on the collector market, which is...

    My usual MO is, I buy one, if it appeals to me. If I like it, I get a 2nd. If I like like them, I get a 3rd. I like like both the O-16 and the Hadaly. The only other atty I have 3 of is the Manta2. I probably would have got a 3rd Stumpy; but they were discontinued before I got the chance.

    Ok, I must stop buying attys again. I tend to go overboard when I find ones I like. This week I got another Hadaly and another O-16. I have 3 of each now. That should hold me for awhile.

    help with mech mod safety

    I don't mean to be harsh; but if you have to ask if a particular resistance coil is safe to use on a mechanical mod, you don't know enough about battery safety and ohms law to be using mechanical mods.

    there are always somethings to learn.

    Regulated mods are cool, I guess. Mrs Rule seems to enjoy hers. I've offered her one of my REOs, but she has no interest. Me, on the other hand, I've never owned one, except for back in my early days of vaping, with a Provari. I still enjoy setting up, using, and experimenting with mechanicals...

    What's the deal with all of these oversized- large drip tips now ?

    Always good to see another Manta lover.

    What's the deal with all of these oversized- large drip tips now ?

    I'm not a cloud chaser, nor am I trying to win any contests. I've never attended a cloud comp, nor do I have any plans to. But, for most of my smoking career, I mainly smoked pipes and cigars. I only smoked cigarettes occasionally. I like a big, thick, full vapor. As for juice consumption, I...

    What's the deal with all of these oversized- large drip tips now ?

    The only way to prove it to you is for you to try it. If you have a collection of drip tips, look at the diameters of the bores, and try different ones, on the same atty or tank. See if you notice any differences.

    What's the deal with all of these oversized- large drip tips now ?

    I only use mechanicals. For me, choosing the drip tip is the final stage in fine tuning my vape. Sometimes a large bore, friction fit tip is appropriate; sometimes not.

    What's the deal with all of these oversized- large drip tips now ?

    I'm not a super low ohm builder; but I am a direct lung hitter, and the big tips do make a lot of difference.

    I will check it out. I plan to watch a lot of Netflix and Amazon stuff, since I got a new Xbox One for Christmas. The documentary I mentioned caught my eye. I'm glad I watched it. It's an interesting eye opening history lesson. Plus, so far, I suck at Madden football.

    I didn't know he wasn't well. I don't think I've seen a post from Spydro since the REO forum closed down. Hope he's ok.

    Brilliant man. But he's highly polarizing; one of those people that conservatives love to hate. He was on Richard Nixon's 'Hate List', mostly due to his anti Vietnam war activism in the late '60s and early '70s.

    Media lies or the truth?

    I have mild COPD, not only from smoking, but also from a long career of working in hostile environments, with often poor air quality. As a retiree, I get my lungs tested every year, with x rays as well as breathing tests. I can honestly say that in nearly 6 years of vaping, and not smoking, my...

    I just watched a program on Netflix, called 'Requiem for the American Dream' by Norm Chomsky. I urge anyone to watch it, regardless of your political bent. If not Netflix, I'm sure it's available on YouTube. It's a little over an hour in length. You may dismiss Chomsky as a Libearal lunatic...

    Agreed. The likelihood that you'll lose or break something is inversely proportional to the likelihood that you will have a spare. I think it's one of those Murphy's Laws.

    I tend to be somewhat resistant to change, sometimes. With the standard REO bottles, I know just how hard to squonk them, and how to gauge my juice fills. I like to refill and change batteries at the same time. I'd have to re learn that stuff with different bottles. Weird? Yeah, I guess so.

    You're correct. I didn't know there were 2 SB sizes. He mentioned the 8.5ml. They will fit.

    Apparently not. I just read back through our convo. Peter said he had been gifted a couple of the SB bottles, and they fit fine in the Pinch.
