    Amazing...First cold after full-time vaping

    I've had the same experience - every winter, without fail, I'd have at least one killer episode of bronchitis/pneumonia. Just like you, it always started with a headcold that would migrate to my chest and stay there forever. I'm now in my 4th winter of being totally bronchitis-free, even after...

    New to Vaping....just Ordered Reo Grand and RM2, Tips?

    How much difference does the 29 gauge wire make over the 28? Does it heat up (and cool off) appreciably faster? That's my only issue with the 28. It doesn't seem to be as big a factor on the RM2, but it drives me nuts in my other drippers. And while I have you all here, I've been meaning to...

    New to Vaping....just Ordered Reo Grand and RM2, Tips?

    Get yourself one of these: Amazon.com: Artistic Wire Coiling Gizmo(R) Deluxe Winder for Jewelry Making: Arts, Crafts & Sewing One of the mandrels, at least on my set, is almost exactly 1/16th in diameter, which is sort of the standard for micro coils. This thing is idiot proof. I sometimes...

    Two-tone Nemesis Clone

    The copper Nemmy is gorgeous - I'm very tempted, but I have too many other toys on my list at the moment.

    Tools for Vaping

    The only thing I can think of that hasn't already been mentioned is a roll of "shop towels" - the thick, blue paper towels sold in hardware and auto parts stores. They stand up to juice so much better than regular paper towels - one roll lasts me a couple months - and they're great for cleaning...

    Two-tone Nemesis Clone

    I have the Nemmy clone (two-tone), the Nzonic clone and the Chi-you clone (both SS) - first two are Hcigar, not sure about the Chi. I like the look of the Nemmy the best - not just the two-tone colors, but it's also the most compact-looking of the three. I keep thinking I'll get the magnets for...

    how long does your coil last on your rebuldable

    I've been using the same coil in my RM2 bottom-fed rebuildable for at least a month. Generally, I clean it every time I re-fill the juice bottle by dry burning and, if necessary, gently scraping off any ash or remaining burnt on crud with a mini flat head screw driver, then rinsing with warm...

    Look out P.Busardo has a REO Grand ..........

    If he stays true to form, he'll spend some time with it before he does the review - plenty of time to learn the art of the squonk.

    Best all day vape/pv/apv...hassle free... Dependable ..... Best at home vaping nirvana pv

    I have a Provari, too, and I love it. Accurate, reliable and built like a tank. I was going to sell it to help fund my future fleet of Reos, but I can't seem to part with it. The only drawback to it is that you're still at the mercy of whatever topper you put on it. Sounds like the...

    Blackberry Tobacco

    I just posted about the Newminster in another thread. It's very good - way more blackberry than tobacco, but good. My bottle is still young, though, so that may change over time.

    Good life vapor opinions...

    I've been through a tank or so of each of my first round of flavors - Deadly Sin, High Five, El Kamino and Newminster No. 23, either in a Reo/RM2 set up or an Aspire BDC. I like all of them. Deadly Sin is my favorite, which isn't a surprise. What does surprise me is how much I'm enjoying the...

    No kidding - I love Pulp Fiction, but Reservoir Dogs, especially that scene, is just too intense for me.

    Conspiracy theories...

    Wicking issues are usually in play - too much and you get gurgling, too little and you get the dreaded burnt taste. In my experience, good wicking is usually a matter of matching the thickness of the flavor wicks to the type of juice I'm using. With a thicker juice, you may need to take one, or...

    I am reminded of this: Samuel L. Jackson Board which I still think is pretty hysterical. Lots of great lines from Pulp Fiction. ****LANGUAGE WARNING**** (better make sure there are no kids or bosses or sensitive co-workers around when you play this)

    Trust me on this: you're not old - you're not even getting there yet - if you were 18 when Pulp Fiction came out :)
