Oh God Christmas. Most of my siblings, we essentially trade cash via Amazon gift cards. So whoever has the most kids wins (my sister.)

I have successfully avoided 3 of my mom's "all child mandatory" Christmas vacations now for a WHILE. This year, it's no vacation. due to the FMLA thing. That's 3 times in a row. I can't think of an excuse for next time. LOL, maybe by then my mother will be dead.

I'm kidding! Really! But I do find them stressful. I was explaining to my mom like, I was saving to take the kid on a "mom and kid vacation only) he was like "You are my only biological parent." I want to take him to Sedona. She was like, "Oooh you could fly here and spend part of the vacation here with ME."

I had to tactfully state that would be lovely but if we are taking the kid's dog and we will be (even if we were going to the MOON we would be) and it would likely be the kid driving here first... Sigh. I invited her to Douglas once we sold he house. She's either gonna kind of like it or be absolutely HORRIFED. That is how people react to Douglas, like, one way or another.

I found out all my support staff assumed I lived in Bisbee because I'm a provider. I hate Bisbee. I was like asking about reputable dry cleaners in Douglas and the support staff was like, "IDK, I don't dry clean but I'm sure there's one in Bisbee. I was like, yeah... I live here now though." She was like, "Really?" I was like, "Yeah you should live where you work IMHO well, I didn't live ON the reservation but fairly near it." LOL.

I will have to investigate. It is my "Best coat ever purchased" I bought it from England and paid like 150 dollars for it. I dry clean it every season. it is so cool and warm I did not even balk at all.

My mom wants suggestions for gifts every time! I want that leather Dani sleeve for my holy grail dani I have not vaped yet. I can't believe my self control but that is something AWESOME to get without the guilt of self payment.

I’m having a No Coil Detected day with my Zeus x. I’ve tried three different coils and two mods. Checked center pin. Used different brands of coils. I’ve watched YouTube videos. Nothing is working. Days like these make me hate vaping. :-x I don’t have time for this.

Eliquid has the gr1 ultem caps for 1.75, or you can get black for 3.50 (only a few of those left).
I saw that when I ordered the second time. When I tapped on the color selection for the 22mm, it has ultem as the only option. Good to point out for others though! Just be sure and get 22mm, not 24!

My man bought us one, and I thought........NO.....just like @NolaMel I didn't want another thing on my counter, but the laugh is on me, too! Love it!

As well as mine! Looks as though it wouldn't fit, but it does........and mine matches all my other appliances........deep red! :)

I'm afraid of mine. Gets VERY hot and the display flashes when it does. Has been moved to the attic....

Do they break easy or do they just sell them for decorative purpose? Trying to decide if I need them.
The cap feels pretty sturdy. My reason for looking was purely to match doors on my mech squonks. My tops did look more grey than black when they arrived. When I gave the tank its bath, it was black until it started to dry. Rubbed it with some vg (could have been pg, I didn’t have my readers on lol). Still black this morning

Or get 24 if you want to be able to use an 810 drip tip.

My work takes Christmas entirely too seriously. I agreed to participate, and they gave me a little form about my likes, hobbies, etc. One was confusingly labeled "character." I wanted to put "I have never killed anyone... that I know of.

But then I didn't want to scare a co worker. So, I put the Hulk. I don't like the Hulk, but I don't like ANY cartoon characters, and well.... I dislike the Hulk a little less.

The minute I draw mine I am getting on Amazon, inputting all the variables and hopefully BUYING stuff that will arrive in time. This is a gift I refuse to "shop for."

At my work festivities always ensue. LOL.

The gr1 rda native topcap is 22mm diameter, with a 510 driptip bore.

They sell after-market topcaps, too. The "22 mm" caps are 510 driptip compatible, while the "24 mm" are nominal 810 (their specific "810" drip tips are the ones with the oring on the tip itself - not really standard 810 but there are a fair number of these floating around).

I have never had an issue with Smok products, but I'm showing $18.99, not $15. However, with a $5 off coupon it would be $13.99 (which is a steal).
Ah, what the heck. I ordered 3 of them yesterday for $15. You're right, it's still a pretty good deal. I've never used the codes that pop up. I'm not sure what the messenger thing is.

They also have had Geekvape Novas for around $20 for a long time. I got a bunch of those too this summer.

That stinks... could have got them for 10 bucks. Maybe they will drop again for black friday. When you shop at eightvape use honey and you will get one of the $5 off coupons. There also is an 11% one which is good if you get up above 50 bucks.

Maybe try swapping out all the post screws for the spares then try with a single coil. I just had a look and the positve post isn't removable so apart from re-seating the centre pin again (after fully removing it and cleaning it) I'm not sure what else to suggest. Best of luck

Try a different mod. Maybe it's your mod.
edit: NM didnt see you tried that already
