Seriously? Who exactly would I be trying to “impress” with my big clouds? My dogs? My cat?

You don’t know anything about me so keep your assumptions to yourself.
I like to blow big clouds at home... It's like having real soda instead of diet. :) I'm good about very small clouds when driving or way off to the side when around non vapers/smokers.

ProVari users would have a series of lakefront cottages furnished with pontoon boats.

And of course the nude beach.

I'd be OK with the lakefront cottages and pontoon boats. However, I wouldn't visit the nude beach. Nope, no way. Their ProVari would be the only "tube shaped" things I'd be OK with, seeing at a beach. :shock:

You may want to adjust your expectations of a retirement community and a nude beach.

There is one in St. Martin if you would care to visit and experience it yourself.

They have golf centered retirement communities with a golf course on site. Why not a vaping community? We could have swap meets and vaping lounges. Cloud competitions. Teams of trained kids to build coils and wicks for us.

We would have to keep the squonkers in a separate section, you know how they always like to tell the rest of us how much better their way is. Maybe the Provari users too. And if we admit mech users their area could be off to one side with a safety barrier between them and the normals. I think it could work.
:) I love it! :)

I’ll build that, if you’ll all come. Reserving MY room in the squonking section, of course, not that I’m a tank snob all of a sudden.

I recently planned a move into daughter's home but I hate to be a burden so I changed my mind. Not sure what I will end up doing in a few years time. Oh, the joys of getting older. Maybe we all need to move in together, lol.

Just think of how stocked up we would be. :vapor:

I’m envisioning something like the Golden Girls for myself lol!

I looked all over the house for my phone day before yesterday before realizing it was on my head (wireless headset). Made me feel a little less senile when I remembered that one time when I was about eight I searched the house high and low for my book before noticing it was draped over my forearm. I'm not old, I'm consistent!

Can you tell me which protected tube mods you’ve found? Thanks
These are the two I've found so far. Reasonable price, replacement boards available. I view these as the last ditch, end of the line survival rations. The attraction is the $5 replacement boards.

$14.95 SXK Atto Styled 18350/18650 Mechanical Mod - stainless steel at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$4.88 Replacement Chip for Atto Mechanical Mod at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

$33.99 Authentic Cthulhu Tube Dual MOSFET Mechanical Mod - 1*18650/18350 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$5.00 Authentic Cthulhu Tube Dual MOSFET Mod Chip at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

The boards for both tube mods uses a spring tab contact that could break if the tube threading is over tightened. If all my other electronic mods stop working these will probably still be working. I don't know if the above are the best choices.

If replacement boards were available for my Picos I'd get a few right now to refresh the screens on a couple of the devices. If the Pico screens have limited shelf llfe then may be there's no point in stockpiling them. May be the screens are generic and a skilled electronics guy could swap them out with a soldering iron. Or how about cutting the cable and adding a connector? That might work too if there's room for the connector inside the case.

I remember reading about that spring tab and I thought I heard that it had been fixed but I could’ve dreamt that up.

Thanks for the info!!

    Now that we are all stocked up and planning a retirement vaper colony, here are your first two volunteers for the nude beach (they love to sunbathe, especially the Alaskan Klee Kai)--go figure since she is a northern breed.

    Went into the vape shop today looking for a glass for my crown3 dude sells me a returned crown3 for 10 bucks in box he says they brought it back cause it leaked the bottom of ring on the coil was gone so I bought another coil put it together Wala brand new back up. Only problem it drip tip was purple and my damn wife was all it's pretty so my first backup went to her.:grr::wub:

    Re-post from the CASSAA thread:
    Heads Up - News - Updates Thread

    NATIONAL: (HEADS UP!) A horrific bill, known as the Reversing the Youth Tobacco Epidemic Act, would decimate the vaping industry, block tobacco harm reduction efforts and leave adults with fewer alternatives to smoking & higher costs with Tobacco 21, banning non-tobacco flavors, prohibiting online sales, authorizing FDA to collect $100 million in user fees and giving the agency power to regulate synthetic nicotine and to extend rules on cigarettes, such as graphic warning labels, to much safer vapor and smoke-free products.

    New Bill in Congress Would Destroy the Vape Industry - Vaping360

    Glad I'm stocked for life...
