New Tobacco Surcharge on my health insurance
Maggie; Well great for you, but isn't the Israeli tax rate up to 45% of income?....so I guess you (or someone else) is paying for it in one fashion or another...which is my point - SOMEONE pays.....nothing in life is free. I've always admired the Israelis (I have quite a few friends who were in...- NamVet68

New Tobacco Surcharge on my health insurance
I guess you are lucky....I am aware that many Middle Eastern countries (as you state in your tag) have free health care, education, and even food & housing stipends for their citizens....all paid for with Petrodollars. It's still not "Free" (nothing is), someone else is just paying for it...- NamVet68

Yeah...well people in prison get free health care as well.... "If you want total security, go to prison. There you're fed, clothed, given medical care and so on. The only thing lacking... is freedom." ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower- NamVet68

New Tobacco Surcharge on my health insurance
While I agree with you regarding Insurance companies... you don't think that they aren't being pressured by the FDA and other Government entities in order to limit tobacco (nicotine, caffeine, salt, alcohol, Big Gulps, cause du' jour..take your pick) consumption in order to make everyone fit...- NamVet68

...that's being proven to be totally incorrect as every day goes by. Your biggest problem is that you believe Politicians.... "Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river." – Nikita Khrushchev- NamVet68

Sigelei #19 Tips, tricks, and DON'Ts
Its caused by poor conductivity between the button & the body of the MOD when you hit the fire button. There are a couple of easy fixes - probably the simplest is to replace the button spring with a hot spring ( a Silver Bullet spring works fine if you wind it tighter). I did that as soon as I... -
The Next Big thing.... Porous Ceramic Wicks
I've been using Ribbon Kanthal for quite some time (.5 X 1mm), but my earlier ceramics were running 30 Ga Kanthal A-1, and worked about the same. Both my DID clones have been drilled-out to 1/8 ...I think some people were concerned that when you drill them out, you expose the brass to the...- NamVet68

The Next Big thing.... Porous Ceramic Wicks
I just dry-burn them every 2-3 tankfuls & have been running the same wick/coil for over three months on a couple of my RBAs that see daily (heavy) use. My method is simple; as the tank runs dry, I run clean water through the tank and rinse the coil, wipe it off GENTLY with a paper towel & and a...- NamVet68

New Tobacco Surcharge on my health insurance
You ain't seen nothin' yet folks....wait until 2014 when the whole "Affordable Care Act" package goes live..... I have many friends in the Medical community, and they are just getting notified of the bureaucratic nightmare they will be subjected to. It's 1984....just a few years late....- NamVet68

Sigelei Mechnical Mods
Dang... looking at that Caravela clone again was a BIG mistake... Yep... ordered one in 18350 flavor from Vaportek (and I just ordered a polished 13a from them this morning) :facepalm: Now I have to find an engraver who can do a little sailing ship on the bottom.....maybe with "Sigelivela" in... -

If you go to the Sigelei product page for the 8W, it shows the top cap as being in two pieces. Unscrew the upper portion & it has a true E-GO connector underneath: telescopic-8w_TELESCOPE_SIGELEI Electronic Cigarette - -

Yeah... I saw that this morning... pulled the trigger on the polished 13a. My vape budget just went out the window... Three mechanicals, two Sigelei Ks, and various other trinkets in the mail.... My wife is starting to look at me funny when I tell her how much money I'm saving not buying... -
Sigelei #19 Tips, tricks, and DON'Ts
My #19 came from the factory with different finishes on every part (but then, so did my SMOK Natural). Get yourself a heavy duty Scotch-brite pad at your local Grocery store, place it in the palm of your hand & twist the MOD back & forth ... the brushed finish will even up perfectly... -

My Boba's clone
Yepper... that's the stuff I've used before. It's a little stronger than the Black & Mile that ecigexpress sells, so I usually use about 1/3 less of VZ Black Cigar when I mix it....but they have very similar flavor profiles IMHO. Either one needs a week or two to tone down - during the first...- NamVet68
