the last vape Mail arrived today ... the silica gel packs :blink:

I'm done :party:
I got my order of extra glass/plastic bottles today and my missing carry cases/cables for my hana one modz I was shorted. I have some of those nautilus hollowed out cages arriving tomorrow that were recommended ITT, then I am done.... for a while. I will be ordering a load of flavorings next week, and have a few carts of mods/tanks/parts loaded up but I am trying to hold off a month or two until my credit card balances get worked down some.

Desert Vapes has those Twizers, too! I got a couple pair from them.

Also, it took me awhile to learn how to make a nice, RYO, ciggie, but I actually got pretty good at it! Had my own little Tops cheapo machine, my big bag of pipe tobacco, box of tubes, a tray I always made them on, and waalaa! No mess, pretty fast to make several packs worth, and I even learned how to make them packed like a regular smoke so they didn't fall apart, burn my clothes, etc. :thumbs:

I wanna see now!!! I am waiting for my 3 to arrive, hopefully by Thursday. I got the speckled ones cause I'm weird like that. :shock:

I wanted to get the blue speckled one, but decided to go with the plain because it would be more versatile. The flavor is incredible! It's almost as good as the real Kabuki. The only quirk the clone has is that it tends to leak if I overfill it. I hope yours doesn't leak at all, but if it does, I suggest you only fill it about 3/4 full. Then you shouldn't have any problems at all.

    I used to be a carpenter and have extremely strong hands and still my RX200's give me trouble sometimes. They get easier to open within a half dozen open/shuts. I tweak their bodies to be snug with no shifting or rattles and regret it when it gets stuck but another little tweak and it's fit again. It'll get easier as 1. you get the hang of it and 2. it gets used to being opened and shut.

    Thanks, I will keep working it since I would have to pay shipping and a restock fee to return it.

    Thanks for the tip, can't wait to get them.

    For anyone still shopping, these are 8.99 at DFW

    I heard that people rolled their own but I don't know anyone personally that did and I've never seen the tools to do so. So very cool!
    My brother used to RYO and we both did for awhile to save $'s.

    Well, that was an interesting mess with the wismec rx200 battery door. I talked with several vendors about the issue and none of them had heard of problems. They made all sorts of suggestions including putting a warm towel on it. Ultimately, I used a jar opener gripper pad and got it off. It requires that each time to open it. I actually hurt my thumb, that thing has serious magnets on it.

    :lol: :lol: :lol: Sorry for the laughter, I'm just appreciating hearing that I wasn't the only person that had a problem. :)

    Why don't you try another magnet on the outside? If you have any on the fridge maybe they will help to lift a little to at least get a little hold or fingernail under it enough to pull.
    such a thought.

    Holy crap we actually fell to page two for a minute there! Don't worry guys I got us.

    Trying to figure out if my Geekvape 521 Tab bit the dust already or if I got a DOA RTA and a DOA RBA for the STM.

    Also, I've heard that the tracking notice of that package getting routed to the FDA was a troll and innocently got passed along through an advocacy group. Apologies for any headaches that caused, did say it was unconfirmed but yeah I hate passing false information.

    Tried that and one of those tools that has a strong magnet on the end, tried a coin, screwdriver, acrylic fingernails. butter knife. That puppy has strong magnets, they would lift a super hero into the air. Finally occurred to me to try the jar lid thing and that did the trick. Hopefully, as Mowgli said, after a few tries it will get easier.

    I just found out something interesting on my T18 tanks and coils and they are supposed to be 1.5 coils but when I checked resistance of each one on Provari they tested from 1.7 to 2.3! I am assuming that coils change resustance with use as the coils build up but I Was surprised at the 2.3.

    If it's like mine was, the 510 was not really spring loaded. Emailed Geek Vape and they would not answer any questions I had about it. So I replaced that piece of junk with a Coil Master Tab.

    I have found that my 1.5Ω gs-air coils go all the way up to 4.2Ω pretty quickly once they are getting close to needing to be changed. My welded legs 1.8Ω re-built protank coils only go to about 2.8Ω before they pop or start tasting bad so get changed out. I am thinking since the gs-air coils have dual coils maybe one of them pops and that is why it goes up so far. I'm not really sure what is going on.

    Wow 4.2 was a shocker :) I didn't realize how much the coils change with use.
