Yes sorry should have been clearer. Carbon Monoxide inhaled deprives the brain of oxygen slightly and is why smoking can make you light headed for a bit.

Just seen P Busardo did a video on the upcoming provari 3. Looks nice and advanced but only goes to 20W, thought they would go higher.

I've just seen that as well, just hope they don't over price it, I quite like it, especially the ability to take any 18xxx battery including flat tops.

There's a darn site more of it coming out of exhaust pipes than ciggies...

I agree Bob. Try standing in my bus depot first thing when all the old bangers get started up. Even with the extractors on full, you can still see and taste the smog in the air - it's bloody awful some mornings :(

Well it's been a long day today, but when I got home found FT have converted my rebate points to a gift certificate. This time they did the full 12 dollars, instead of the usual $10.

So I ordered the following:

Got 3 of these, 2 sizes in phillips and 1 in flat head.

My other tweezers are knackered from torching my micro coils, so time for a new set.

https://www.fasttech.com/p/1797614
yet another drip tip.

I'm going to be modding these to use on the new Reo. So I can use them as bottom feeders.

The whole FT order only cost me £12, using the gift certificate, what a bargain :laugh:

------------------------------

Had to order the screwdrivers, cos I made a boo-boo with the packing on holiday. Got to the airport, weighed the suitcase and it was 2.5kgs over the limit. Took out my mods, a cardigan for the Wife and my bum-bag, that we put a few bits in. Case was then ok on the scales. Got to passport control and X-ray, the Wife put the bum-bag through. I hadn't realised I'd put my 2 favourite coil building screwdrivers in the bum-bag. So they got confiscated and binned. Luckily, I didn't need to tinker with my coils on holiday :laugh:

I got that one (but in silver) the other day. I like it, it looks good on my quasar I think, but in case you hadn't read the reviews/discussion, the POM section isn't as wide at the bottom as the top, it narrows into the same diameter as the hole on the bottom of the metal bit (standard 510 drip tip diameter I guess). Just thought I'd mention in case you were specifically looking for a large bore drip tip :)

Cheers Adam. To be honest, I want to match it up with either the Fogger V4 or the new Reo when it arrives. At the moment I've got 3 tips stacked up on the Fogger just to cool the vape down a bit - went for a dual twisted kanthal build on it. Great flavour, throat hit and flavour at 0.6 ohms, but it's a bit on the warm side for me, even with the airholes drilled out. So, I'm hoping the POM bit might help cool the vape a little, if not it will go on the Reo :D Not too worried about the bore, I've got tips like that, that are wide bore at the top but smaller at the 510.

I don't doubt it! :(

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Going back to the WTA ...there's a package with duty to pay - I've done that online, so should get it Wednesday. The duty is £3.54 (£11.54 with the £8 imposition) So it could just be the package with the WTA from Aroma.
It can't be Strix (too fast), unlikely to be FastTech (order too low value), so as far as I know, it must be the Aroma one.

Only other thing is, it could be something one of our sons ordered ...they get everything sent here because I work at home! Feels like a parcel depot at times :(

Can you not calculate the VAT from the overall shipment value Trisha ??

What was the value of your Aroma order ??

Hmm it might help a bit, I'll compare it to other drip tips I have vaping the same build tomorrow. You could get a longer drip tip or something to cool the vape down (I have one of the long, thin and bent ones from FT). That one certainly does cool it down but I get less vapour from it I think as well.

That's cruel Terry, comparing Ron to a weeble :laugh:
I thought that too when I read it, but I let it pass ...I knew what he meant ...at least, I think I did ....:unsure: :laugh:

You can never have too many toys Cody. If you have less than 10 they tend to get lonely and when you buy a new one you have to make sure it's colour coded with the tank you're using - otherwise the other mods will laugh at your new toy for not fitting in with the collection. So you see when I buy a new mod, I have to buy a matching topper so it doesn't get picked on by the rest of my collection :laugh::lol:

So applying my new logic, I need to get another Vmod, to even up the numbers :ohmy:
oh well then, you'll need a cuckoo too! ;) :lol:

Must admit I've no plans to get rid of nicotine completely.

Next time a smoker says to me "you've just replaced one addiction for another". Rather than argue with the ignoramous, I'll just reply "I may still be addicted to nicotine, but at least I'm not dying for a cigarette" (pinched from another ECF member).
I'd like to be non-dependent on it seeing I've got this far. Not sure I'll get to that though, and not sure I'd stop even if I do. It's all a try and see exercise :)
I do hate the sanctimonious who obviously know little about it ..far too little to empower them with making such statements - yet they do!
It applies to smokers and non-smokers too.

I've got one of the mega long 50+ mm tips on one of my Kayfuns that's drilled out to the max. Does cool things down a lot. I'm not too worried if the POM doesn't cool down the Fogger, it's a bit of an experiment really. Terry will tell you, I love experimenting :laugh: Plus I like the look of the tip too :D

I knew what he meant too, but thought it was amusing to tie the two together :laugh:

Those cockoos would breed if I got more :laugh:

Sod them all, I say. I'm at that point in my life now where I don't care if others think badly of me. Take me as I am, or take a long walk off a short cliff :ohmy: You tend to develop a thick skin driving buses :laugh:

I likely could but I'm never too sure what percentage it is, nor 100% what the $ exchange rate was at the time.
This was the order:
Subtotal $29.50
Tax $0.00
Shipping (International Priority Postal Shipping) $25.95
