Hi All,

Here's some stuff to pass the time and see if your day is better than mine.

/RANT

I get my interim 808 supplies in to tide me over until I decide how to get back into vaping.

90mg of fluid - check
3ml carto tank- check
5-pack of regular cartos (just in case) - check

I stick a cart onto my old auto battery and take a puff (cough cough hack sneeze), Yep, just the way I remember it. Move cart to old auto PT (cough cough hack sneeze), smooth as ever. Switch to old manual battery and puff (puff puff puff puff), dangit. Dead and tossed into the bin.

I fill the tank (my first ever) and do a dry pull to fill the carto, so far so good. Screw it onto the PT and I get a gurgly draw and the PT won't stop firing. Sure enough it's flooded and no amount of cleaning makes it reliable again. After messing with it for an hour it, too, goes into the bin. Fiddling with the tank to get it to stop leaking has juice all over, I swallowed more than I puffed and I knocked over the bottle of alcohol onto my work papers. Hmm, looks like inkjet ink is alcohol soluble.

Now I am down to one old battery and I am semi panicking. I was really counting on the PT to hold me for a bit.

Okay. Deep breath. I have the internet and a wallet - time to shop. I am reconsidering the Provari and other tube mods for now as I never seem to have a level surface near me. I am always chasing anything round like pens and screwdrivers under furniture.

I know I will need some small backups, anyway, so I look at Echo, ego, Kgo, igo, Ugo, evic ad naseum. I really want at least a VV so I weed out the others and here we go again. Information overload. Procrastinating for hours and after settling on a promising unit - I can't find one in the U.S. The words "Sold Out" and "Out-of-stock" has me seeing red.
My last attempt was for a V8 VV. Cheap, VV, replaceable batteries and not round, YAY!

OUT OF #$% STOCK! GRrrrr

The only shop near me is selling mall e-cigs like 7-eleven carries. Another kicker is that I had to make a 200 mile trip for work last week and there are THREE e-smoker shops there. Still kicking myself for not checking while I was there.

I still can't get to the Classified section to get something from there and on the way to write this rant, my web browser updates and basically exploded and another hour goes by fixing that.

*pant pant pant* /END RANT

I hope your day was better than mine ...well, not really :glare:

I am still at it. Thanks to the Chinese 2 month siesta I can't get an order together.

Itaste
Robust
V8

Someone has one but no adapters or batteries or a PT, another has 2 out of 4, one has a charger but no unit.

Cripes I'm sick of it. I am sticking firm to a digital VV or VW that can be adapted to my 808 gear, PT function or replaceable batteries, not round or chrome if possible, and I really want to get it all in one order. There is a lot out there - it's just in another country at the moment.

Back to RYO cigs. :(
