DITTO ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ What She Said

AND - I Stickin' to that . . .

Good to see you, Uncle. I'm usually moving a day late, so I understand perfectly.


Lilac, thank you for the coffee. Very important fuel for me today. And it tastes good!

 

[Uncle]

Oh, thanks a heap Blues! But, yeah, I'm rather accustomed to folks shaking their heads and saying "That girl just ain't right."

Oh, don't worry, Raven. You'll get to pay me back as soon as these folks realize what kind of nitwit you brought to their thread.

AND - As "My" Sig says - WHAT'S YOUR POINT ? ? ? ?

Like "We" didn't know already - since on this subject - "WE" ALL ARE . . .

It's so good to see you posting here again Uncle. I've missed you.

Enjoy New Hope for me! It's such an interesting town. I enjoyed a lot of good shows there and good times with my buddies. Travel safely!

Uncle, you'll be about 75 driving miles east of me. It's more like 55-60 miles as the crow flies.

I usually rent a crow for the day

New Hope is a bit up the road from me, but if you get down toward Trenton let me know and I'll buy you a cup of coffe, not as good as Lilac's though unfortunately. Enjoy you time in NH and NYC and when you pass through NJ on the way to NYC, remember this is the "Great Nanny errr ahhh Garden State". (Hope I got enough acronyms and initials in there)

I always enjoyed your state too Awsum. It's not near Trenton, but Basking Ridge was always good to me. Never could figure out the road systems with the legal U-turns. It was very confusing to my simple mind. But, other than that, it seemed like a beautiful state.

I think I could manage to DIY some of the really basic ones. Forget it on for me on anything else. I'd like to try it someday at the very least so that I'd understand the process. Does everything need to be bought in large quantities?

Xtreme and Wizard both sell nicotine PG and VG in 125ml bottles and nicotine in strengths starting at 25 to 30 mg/ml. If you get the nicotine in 25 mg in PG or VG base liquid or even a mix of the 2 (PG/VG) about all you have to do is flavor to taste and steep it providing you believe in steeping, I have my doubts about it but some would argue it is necessary. I have mixed and Vaped within minutes and had great results. My belief is your taste buds change so much after you quit the analogs that everything tastes different from day to day but I could be wrong. I'm vaping some Rock Star that I mixed at lunchtime and it is wonderful!

Pasta for me!!!!

Hey, gang! Sorry I've been away for a bit, but I have a new friend in the house, and I've also had some cleaning and construction crews coming in, and more to come.

Anyway, my 60 lb shelter rescue/lap dog wanna be, Shamus! He's a big ol' baby, 4 years old, and loves a good belly rub. A border collie/Bernese mountain dog mix, and he's currently enjoying chewing on a beef knuckle/knee.

Good looking Pup, looks to be healthy and happy too.

Thanks Rave. NJ gets a bad rap becasue most people only ever see the piece between Newark Airport and the tunnels. Where I live it's open farmland and woods without a refinery or ship in sight. Basking Ridge and the whole Hunterdon/Sussex county areas, are really nice with some good size hills as well as lots of open land. Between the late night hosts and Jersey Shore it does tend to run the place down, but hey, if we can keep it a secret and unspoiled for a little longer as a result, who's to complain.

A young man at McDonald's asked me about vaping...does it work? I told him I hadn't touched a cigarette in almost ten months, gave him a SI business card and told him to come to ECF. I like it when people ask and I like pointing them in the right direction.

Way to go, Lilac!!! You need to be proud of yourself. Not only is your coffee great, so are you.

I love NJ, some of my favorite X wives were Jersey girls.

The amounts that I got from Wizard Labs was, for me, the smallest I could get to get started:
60 ml - 60mg nic in 100% PG (the smallest amount that they carry: 60, 120, 250, 500 are your choices)
250 ml - PG
120 ml - VG
= 430 ml of base
+ 84 ml of flavoring
= 4 months of juice for around $51 shipped.

When the nic, PG and VG are all mixed together, I would end up with 430 ml of base with 7.1 mg nic in 76.4PG/23.6VG, assuming 15.4% flavoring in 100% PG (haha, I used eJuiceMeUp and played with the variables until I came up with the right mls of all the stuff that I ordered). When I order premixed, it's usually 6mg in 80/20. I'm thankfully not picky and have a wide range of tolerance, so if it ends up slightly off, it's all good.

I played with the other nic strengths too, but I would've ended up with extra stuff, or too much base. This was just right for now, since my funds were severely limited. If I had gone for lower nic, then I'd still have to order VG & PG, because my nic is so low.

Gosh - listening to y'all talk about the east just makes me want to hop a plane!
A few years ago bro n I took one of my kiddo's along to Akron (our then annual trip). We'd been workin' on mom's house - she gave us some extra $$$. On the way down my drive I called my sis: How far to Niagra? If I buy the petro will you drive? Even tho it was late March - we had a really great time up there. Also got to an outlet "mall"(?) in western PA. That was a great bottle of wine I brought back from there!

I'm hopin' to have a convert in the neighborhood ... Need to get a kit together to loan a guy ... just as soon as I find out what he's currently smokin' to figure out what flavor to use. I recently heard a minty menthol is pretty universal - even if one never smoked menthol's ... Any thots out there?

 

[Joie]

Rec'd my first volt kit today....and am charging right now......but the booklet says the LED should flash while it is charging.....NOPE
Is this wrong....or will all be ok?

 

[starsong]

It shouldn't flash, it should be lit solid then go out when it is done.
