I think the cleaning was just as important as the conditioner. I've been a brewer for 12, almost 13 years now, so I just have it on hand. You can find it at homebrewing shops pretty easily. Some people suggest some lubes you can find at Home Depot/Lowes, but honestly I haven't found one...
Just saw the posts on the gap. I had a little issue with mine doing that too. I removed the o-rings, cleaned them & treated them with some Keg Lube (an o-ring conditioner, not really a lube). I also gave the screw-on ring a good cleaning & the inside of the cap a good cleaning. No more gap...
Lol, that might be slightly problematic. I keep my wicks fat where it comes through the cap, just like yours looked in the photo, but I thin it out a touch in the chamber to not slow the airflow or choke the coil. And I don't think I said earlier, but I'm using cotton balls with fluff. I'm...
PS, my favorite meters are still the old Simpsons. :) Small? Nope. Portable? Not with how big, heavy & bulky they were. Digital? Pfft, nothing was back then. But they were awesome & every bit as accurate as the Flukes are these days.
If I had to buy a new workhorse tomorrow, Fluke hands...
Don't get me wrong, since I've got my 1 (soon to be 2) Heron, my 4 authentic KFL's haven't seen a lot of action. It's a fantastic atty.
To elaborate:
Flavor production is not as good as the KFL's, it just has many more features that put it a step above. I've heard from a reliable source (who...
Then I would just skip a meter, personally. Unless you want something to make sure you're not shorted out... then just get one of those cheapies for $10-15 or whatever they're going for these days. You're not going to get anything extra worthwhile for vaping by spending an extra $20.
ETA: As...
The problem is in the component tolerances that are wide enough to drive a bus through. They're just not accurate on that sort of a scale. The vape-specific ones would be better at that point... still loose tolerances, but they're built to take a much smaller range than a general meter...
If you don't mind being off by half an ohm or more, they'd work I suppose. I used to keep one of those $10 CheapcellphoneShack meters in my desk, but it wasn't much more than a continuity tester on the resistance setting.
If you're going to buy a standard multimeter, I'd go with a Fluke, no question. You can get those cheapies, but they're so inaccurate they won't do you much good other than as a continuity tester (is it shorted or not). You can get a digital Fluke for a fairly decent price online.
I got my...
An update that's not really an update:
Turns out I had put the wrong face with a name. A different Jason than who I was originally thinking was involved in the accident. The actual guy who died was 36, from Washington & I was talking with him shortly before it happened. He was a very cool...
It sucks. I really didn't know him all that well, but a few of the other guys did & are taking it pretty hard. Nothing new learned this morning, other than more speculation floating around. Sadly, it probably won't be the last fatal accident in the next few months. The stretch of road above...
Copy/paste/share....
Sorry, I may be absent a bit for the next few days.
We lost a kid last night. Until the coroner's report comes out the best we can figure is that he swerved to miss an elk, bounced over a guard rail & went over an 80' cliff just below the Meadows (the village in which we...
I know I'm a new regular in these parts, but I thought I'd copy/paste/share.

As much fun as it is poking Kat with a stick & the fact that we had to chase a bear off again tonight before he got into the walk-in...

4 ladies are driving down the road in their car. One from Iowa, one from California, one from Idaho & one from Montana.
All of a sudden the lady from Iowa starts throwing ears of corn out the window. "What are you doing?!" "Oh, I'm from Iowa & we just have too many of these." "Oh."
A...
Correct. Starting from nothing, you just mix 250mL each of flour & water together in your container, nothing else. Cover it with a towel. Put it someplace warm. The water should be ~25C & the area you put it in should be in that neighborhood, perhaps a touch cooler. Easy as that. The first...
