    I've been doing inventory and calculations. I've got enough coils to last me 13 years, plus I'm getting the basics down, but no means a pro, of cooling. If I order 2 liters of 250mg/ml, may have to tap into savings plus throw a few things out of my freezer, I'll have 19 years of nic. I've got a few mods and tanks on reserve. I think the tanks will take some wear and tear. Ive got backup glass and o-rings. It's the mods, I'm worried about. They're the most expensive and when they fail, that's it. I can't afford to stock up on dozens of mods, so I think I need a good mech mod. I don't know why I'm so nervous about them. I was vaping on them in the early days, but you didn't hear all the stories about mods blowing up in people's faces. Anybody got any good recommendations on mech mods?

    You might want to consider this one, I think it is known as semi regulated. It has some protections but no screen to go bad, etc. I really like mine. They may be cheaper somewhere else if you are interested, I can check.

    Wow Territoo, you are doing good. I screwed up and I have about 400 years worth of coils (I didn't know they could last so long). I only have 15 years worth of nic, but I could live with half that for 30 years. I suppose having some mech mods would be nice. But it is easy to convert a regulated mod over to a mech mod anyway.

    400 years of coils? Just one type of coil or multiple varieties? Either way, that is a lot of coils.

    What kind of coils do you have? Perhaps could sell them or offer a trade for a mech mod on the classifieds?

    Yeah some of my orders from March from Fasttech are starting to flow in.

    Wow! Water damaged! I never heard of that one. That board isn't coated against moisture and you shouldn't put batteries in it. I'd dry it with a hair drier. Not hotter than you can touch it for a few seconds. I dunno, like for 5 minutes. Longer would be better. Longer than say 30 minutes you probably would be wasting your time. You could try it now, but waiting an hour or two would be better.

    Hopefully everything I said is totally unnecessary and you are good to go from the start. But you know, just in case.
    Thanks!

    Has anyone seen one of these?

    I had seen them at Bull City Flavors and it looked kinda neat. So I ordered two of them. I usually pop the caps off with a non-sharp blade of some sort (aka butter knife). A sharp blade works too, but better if it isn't so sharp. So I tried these and they work really nice and fast. Works like those old bottle cap openers. Not sure how to use the top portion. Maybe it is used to grab the nozzle and pull the cap off that way. Or those really small bottle caps. The bottom portion works perfectly for those 120ml/4oz bottles. :D

    Isn't it odd that we are only a few weeks from deeming, and yet none of the online vape stores are having big sales? You would think they'd be trying to unload their inventory while they can still sell it. And yet, it's crickets out there.

    Not really since I only vape Unflavored NIC w/Koolada . . . However, I am sure someone will step up an make a suggestion . . . Good Luck on your search . . . ;)


    .
    I need to try that, I have some koolada sitting around doing nothing.

    What % do you use? I'm going to guess 1%.
