We just got hit with that. They shut down our mail processing facility and now all of our mail comes from NC. It adds another day. It can be frustrating. :(
That's when they remember which hub they're routing to now. Sometimes they forget, and it takes even longer than that...:grr:

Give USPS some time. They will work it out. With their shrinking budget pains they are going to go through a lot of testing routes and processes and you may get caught in their reorganizational overtures. One day I get mail at 10am and the next at 2pm. Used to always be at 1pm. They are testing which route is the most time efficient. If you live in a highly populated area - they have more mail to deliver per person. If you live in a low populated area - they have more miles to drive per person... Mostly they closed contract facilities - never could figure out why they went that route - well I do know why just did not agree with it...

Volties, I have a dilemma. My Volt passthrough has a stiff draw to it. I like that - reminds me of an analog. My batteries are more of an "airy" draw. For those of you who have the new XL batts, what kind of draw do you get? Is it just like the regular batts?

Might be a tad more draw and tighter than the regs. Could be my imagination, though.

OK, I was away from this thread for 2 days only and everything happened : missing eggs all over the place, Konstantine won a contest, an austronaut appeared, a package was lost and found, Uncle hopefully got his flight, Ron declared himself as nice and easy, Imagine went evil and a whole lot of other issues!!! OMG, what is next? I can never leave you unattended, you darlings!
Now, I was away because I was making a Spring clearance in my e-liquids (you can check them at the trade/swapping thread, please send your trade proposals if you have any :)) and because my 4 years old daughter decided that I spent too much time on my computer than with her. So naturally I had to prove her wrong and I was reading bedtime stories to her all evening yesterday and the day before!! So, it is super nice to be back here, at the world of adults (we are all adults and we do behave like it, aren't we? :lol: )

Someone recently mailed something to me from the next town over, and it went to Rochester for the post mark. I think all our mail goes to Rochester and then back here again. Still, it gets to its destination in about 3 days, as does something from across the country.

C'mon, Uncle, other than my absence from the forum, can you really think there's anything that could improve my public image? lol

Though I could try being just sober and thoughtful if you'd like. I could do it too. ;)

NO - Absolutely Not . . . Now that "You" are here, You better not be absent . . . .:)
Who else could be as much FUN as "Our Own Little Rodent" . . . ;)
However, besides a little make-up - I do also like "MR. Holmes" idea too . . . . :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks ThreadKiller! Anyone else?

Retriever, I have an auto and think the draw is very similar to the sealed auto. It is definitely not airy. It has some resistance, more than the unsealed autos, but I am very happy with the performance of the X2. I do sometimes overheat the carto due to the lack of cutoff, another feature that I like. Overall, I am very happy with it.

I have the Volt PT as well and dont find it to have a stiff draw , and I like it very much.
I just used my new XL 650 Batt and it is a Manual too, and DO find it Very Airy too compared to the PT. I do like the PT better , but the XL will come in handy if I ever leave the house..lol.

On another note , I got my bottle(s) of Ice Menthol too , and I love IT !!! It is NOW TIED for MY FAVORITE Juice!!!
Price is not bad , but should be under $10. Hard to buy it , when my other vendor on juice has sales for .99 cents ( 10ml bottle ). Maybe I will mix the 2 and see how that goes so I can stretch the Ice Menthol :)
SI will have 100% of my business for Batts / PT items going forward, about 50% on juice. Now I can only hope they make a 901 tank type system I got elsewhere so I have 1 less vendor to buy from.
