I just ended up on the Vector list ... Resistance was futile.![]()
Just curious: So, 3 re-wicks? 'Cause those coils look pretty black. The wicks look awesome...
Yes, but see I never smoked Marlboro Lights...
I smoked Camels (real ones, not fitered, or kings, or any of that crap) I also smoked Lucky Strikes or Pall Mall Reds as the mood struck me(2PAD). I also dipped a can of Copenhagen a day. And, I smoked a cigar or two in the evening, I usually used a pipe, old school filterless, with some mixture that I was digging at the time over the weekend.
I LOVED tobacco, I did not love watered down, chemical tasting representations of tobacco such as most of the lights, kings, menthols and such. I did so for 36 years. NETs are enjoyable to me. I vape them 0 added or 3, I also LOVE some flavored juice. Custard that I cannot get fat from and yet BREATHE!!!!!
No offense meant, but a "light" mass produced chemical laden cigarette is not nor never has been a flavor I would be remotely interested in chasing. I can stand the maintenance, and the coiling, and the washing, and do it all manually without rigs or devices.Different strokes, some of us actually liked the way real tobacco tasted and smelled.
The next batch of Vectors arrived today as did another 50 derringers, I also got a call from DHL about the Atty3 which should be here tomorrow. Looks like a busy weekend. The Element Stumpys should be here Monday.
In regards to the CAM-M: I was supposed to go see what my engraver came up with today but I got crazy busy finishing a 4"x12"x 1/4" piece of Damascus plate. I had to mill it down to .10 +/- .005. I have been dragging my feet on doing it because it's very messy, takes forever and no matter how I do it I'm losing $100 or more. I have had it for 2 months and today was the day I had to stop procrastinating. Spent another 6 hours and now it's done and on the way back to Texas, good riddance.

This is going to be very expensive Sunbox doors.

No need to feel for me bro. I personally think manufactured cigs tasted like garbage and unflavored nic just the same - awful. But I don't feel for you...
Flavor is at least 75% of the pure enjoyment I get from vaping. Cool that it's not a factor for you, I respect that. But I hope my point is taken without offense![]()
My vector should be coming tomorrow. I saw that super-x said that the vector is strictly dual coil. I didn't know that. Unfortunately, I'm strictly a single coil vaper. I tried dual coils but it was too strong for me. Guess I can try to block off some holes...

The mighty vector after about 7 ml run thru a fresh rebuild of 28 ga and KGD I did last night. I think this is my sweet spot for now. Don't know the resistance (and don't care cause it's less than 10 amps - I'd guess 0.5 ohms net) but you can see that it's like new. Zero gunk. And there won't be any for weeks and even then it's very light.
Those NETs are some serious carmelizers no? Damn.

OMG, Russ....please stop the Porn, until my Vector arrives...your making me drool...
PS...Brian did review on the Atty3...looks enticing too....choices, choices....I guess just buy a couple of each new decent atty's, life is short. may as well enjoy.....
