Are you done stocking up?

I felt like I was at a bit of a crossroad with my Naut Mini. It's one of my favorites. I didn't want to stock up on coils, but hated knowing that once my 5 pack stash was depleted, the Mini would be going on the shelf.

I took a gamble on a VVTF rba. I liked it so much, I ordered 3 more, and 2 more Naut Minis. It IS a challenge. I won't deny it. It still takes me a while to get it right. Take your time (not like we have a choice, building on this tiny thing), plan your build. Look it over good, before starting. The coil legs need to be bent / tweaked in different directions. With your background in tiny work, you'll get the hang of it pretty easily, I think.

I figured you could use a ray of positive feedback. I haven't used a BVC since I got my first rba (about 2 months).
Thanks for the input! Do you build vertical or horizontal coils ? I can't tell from the video where the leg goes in the short section, is there a hole I am not seeing ? Screw is in the side? Do you have the V2? Sorry 50 questions! LOL

Small point, in a positive manner, not argumentative; If Rayon is the best, cleanest, non toxic way of soaking juice, or even blood to a patient in a hospital, hospitals and clinics would use it over organic cotton, across America in all of our hospitals

Cotton is very absorbent, rayon is used extensively in "medicine". Google sterile rayon...
Just because something makes sense doesn't mean the USA is going to do/use it. :w00t:

I've got rayon in my Kayfun, but I haven't tried cotton in a dripper yet. That's a thought, thanks, ENAUD.

Then again, in a dripper, I might not keep it topped up enough to keep from burning it (I'm a lazy vaper). But I'll try cotton one of these days.
Over time, I've learned to know by the sound made by the coil when it' time to drip some more juice. As it gets towards the dry side, the crackling song is a dead giveaway. It's different from atomizer to atomizer, but the sound does change as the wick gets less saturated, in my experience.

    I'm going to make one more FT order. I need to get spare glass for two tanks and a few more odds and ends. After all the raving for the Kabuki tank, I was looking at the clones. If there really is no good rebuildable base for it, I think I will pass on that.
    Wait until Aug 15th, they are having a 10% off sitewide sale, code : SUMMER

    Just don't ask me when Aug 15th happens in China :confused:

    China still sells w/o verification. I have a package from FT already in Chicago USPS. Nobody cares. A new FDA "rules" are design only to "kill" more American businesses.
    What's more disturbing some companies requires DoB and SS(!!!) to verify buyers age. They already knows CC number, home address and phone/email. It's a perfect opportunity to hack in to the buyer's bank account .

    I bought some wrapz for my pv, has anyone wrapped theirs up in one?

    I have two wrapped Picos (one jwrap, one cheapy from Fasttech) and two wrapped Provari 2.5 (jwraps). Great way to tell them apart if you have multiples!

    I may be missing something. But, why does a j-wrap cost $15 to $18? Why would it cost more than $5?
    I think they cut each one on order. Makes more sense than stocking 500x200 different ones. But, still, they must be making money hand-over-fist. I suppose I could just cover my two coppers. The brass still looks good. But Wal-Mart has Acer laptops for $200 right now.

    There is a big difference in which area you live in as to the reaction about vaping.
    I hate that I almost feel like I have to hide when I am in my car or out and about.

    A few months ago I was working at a large medical campus when I took a break to vape and snack. In the parking lot, my car was pointed toward the sidewalk and several people walked by as I was vaping. When I started on my snacks I watched a campus cop pull in to the lot, thought he had just driven through to check out the cars and gone out the other exit. About 10 minutes later I happened to turn around and there he was, parked behind me (in my blind spot), waiting to "catch me in the act". He left as soon as I noticed him.

    I still vape on that campus, but am much more cautious now. ;)
