I think SI has always listened to what people want. They try to provide it. It takes some time for them to contact their supplier, give the specs, have them made, test the result, and then market it. Even then, there can be glitches with a new product, and some refinement may happen after its original debut.

SI may have always listened but Imagine said SI had no plans to add variable voltage to their inventory. This was discussed in SI's Suggestion Thread. Lots of posts asking that vv be considered. That was the reason for my saying SI finally listened. Now they will hit their shelves this week. Great News! :)

I remember reading that too JoAnn. That is why I bought a twist to see what the rave is about. Now I know - it's really great to have control over the voltage settings!

I think it's great that SI listened! What is even better, it's an 808 thread. Had I known SI was going to come out with a VV, I'd have waited. Now I have both 510 and 808 stuff <more of the 808 though>. I had to buy another box to put my supplies in to keep it separate! :cry:

Yeah but ain't it great though! We don't know what the future holds as far as the FDA is concerned... I'm even considering diy. Have you been to the Legislative News thread recently? There is talk of a possible ban on all ecigs and eliquids as soon as this April. Check out the latest.

Just kidding about diy. That sounds too much like chemistry to me. Never was any good in lab or anything resembling it. Never rolled my own cigs either even though it would have been way cheaper. Readymade for me all the way. I will continue to buy my liquids, adding as much as I can as finances allow and just hope for the best. Hopefully, this too shall pass. :)

Glad you're getting some relief from the heat.

Thanks for pointing that out, I hadn't seen it yet. It infuriates me because there are a lot of small businesses that are going to have to close up shop if BT gets it's way via the FDA. I guess the tobacco companies are seeing a small bite into their profits.

I will chew nails before I go back to cigarettes.

That may not be such a bad thing. There are a lot of new 510 delivery systems out there that I would love to try, without having to fiddle with adapters. Now you can. The new 510 stuff might even let you take better advantage of VV. ;)

It's really more like cooking than chemistry. A little of this, a little of that... :laugh:

I see your point, but I've invested quite a bit already in the 808's and decided to try the twist to see what it's about. I do like it, and will continue to use it. I just hate having to buy separate mods for it now that I know SI is coming out with one.

I'm saying good night now. In closing, here's a larch tree. They are interesting because they have needles instead of leaves, but they shed their needles in winter as if they were leaves. they also have these catkins in early spring, before their needles. I decided this photo was better as a silhouette.

OMGosh! That custom horse tip is amazing!! You just have to know that I'm going to "steal" some of your bling and equipment organizing ideas too.

Do you do horse rescue too! Those pictures are great! Beautiful horses. Of course I had to look at Beethoven again, he is so precious.
Rescue : Guess I sort of fell in to it. A local guy was doing so - had horses in several areas. He runs a feed mill. Also trying to cut back to enjoy his family. Really great to see some of them blossom. Equally heart breaking when it was too late.

LOL. - get to kiss a horse when vaping! Bling: so far the clear topcoat nailpolish is adhering to the purple batt - be forewarned it's shiny in that area. Umm - no need to steal! :D

:facepalm: I did say Madvapes. No! I meant to say Vape Dudes. That's where I got mine from too and yes! It gunks up the coils big time. Maybe I should visit Madvapes website... there must be something there waiting for me to buy. :laugh:
Oh funny! That IS yummy! Hmm - may want to use caution peeking in at Madvapes! :D

:laugh: check out this funky drip tip:
499959494_182.jpg
LOL. That's what you need when your needing 24mg and only have 12! :p

Up at my usual work time wakeup without the alarm! I usually allow myself to sleep in on weekends. So, I've got one load of laundry washed and another just put in. I don't do coffee, but I have plenty of diet Dr Pepper for everyone this morning!
What! Only "unleaded" stuff? :D
I think magnolias are very pretty when they blossom. I have a couple of them behind me. I do not like how they hold dust during our dry summers. Their leaves are strong like plates and those funky cone droppings always seem to give my lawn mower troubles. The city planted rows of these trees along my back fence. In my front yard and all around the circle, they planted mulberry trees and I quickly found out that I'm allergic to them. One of my dogs who grew up in Maryland prior to us moving to California was also allergic to them.

So I have pretty trees front and back, but dealing with the allergies from them is a pain. I do enjoy their beauty though.
Sounds pretty! I remember there is a pretty PURPLE blooming tree out there - Jacama? Blooms in the spring & rivals the Mulberry in messiness!

I just returned from visiting Penny. Though it's very, very muddy with the recent big thaw, Penny was fairly clean. What does that mean? Has she not been rolling or lying down in the pasture? I groomed her a bit more thoroughly than before. Each time I go to the barn, I'm able to do a little more. I was able to brush her mane and forelock. Penny is trained to lower her head when I ask, so I was able to reach the forelock and mane near her head, but as I worked back toward her withers, the mane got higher and higher, and I had to strain to reach the last section at her withers. But I did it. The handle on the brush gave me just enough reach. Heather brought Penny in and turned her out, and while I groomed Penny, Heather groomed her horse, Freska. Freska is basically white, and she was a lot dirtier than Penny, who is chestnut (coppery brown). Why is it that white horses always like to get dirtier than brown ones? And it's not just that you can see the dirt on them, either. They seem to enjoy becoming brown like their herd mates.
Oh SandySu - I'm so happy for you! Great job on the training! Forgot who I saw discuss teaching them to lower their heads.

SandySu-

FAnstastic that you were able to brush Penny.

Wiseguy is mostly white and he loves to roll in the dirt. I put him in one day and he laid down and rolled immediately. I kind of took it as a compliment that he trusted me:)

Well, bread baking day again today. 2 degrees overnight and 16 degrees out right now so we aren't spending much time outside despite the sun shining.
Sounds like our area - twas -4 this morning. :-( and a frozen water fountain... Blasted West winds. Back to the bucket for now - wish we'd invested in a heated hose!
Thanks for all the warm get-well wishes. I'm actually feeling pretty good again, no nerve pain attacks for the last 2 days now.

Hope all of you are doing great today.

Kico, those horse pictures are awesome. And Beethoven ... well just too darned adorable!
Great news! Glad you are feeling better!
Thanks! Beethoven - he IS as adorable as his pics! He's fun to bathe. Stands like a little statue! But I must say ALL the fur-kids desperately need a good grooming! The chocolate paint apparently doesn't know she's a lady!
Let me get this straight!!! one carto filled with RY4 the other carto filled with 555.............. so you would get Ry555?????????:D:lol:

hot fudge and butterscotch

coffee and danish...

omg, I think I'm starting to like this thing...:laugh:
Good thing I can vape these flavors! Yummo! Today I'm sick of being gluten free. Worked w/ bro today & ended up @ Hardee's - breaded chicky was SO good.

Some people suggested I post my photos in my profile page. I'm not sure how to do that, though I might look into it and see if I can figure it out. But if you want to see lots of my photos, I posted a bunch of then on Flickr at Flickr: Sandy Su's Photostream You don't have to be a member to look at them, but you do if you want to add a comment. I'm not sure if nonmembers can see them, but if you can, look at my Favorites. Those are photos taken by others on Flickr that I especially liked. I think you will see some that put mine to shame.
Ooooh. - need to bookmark! That magnolia is gorgeous!
Great News Everybody! Smokeless Image is introducing the variable voltage X2 THIS WEEK!

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/smokeless-image/369239-brand-new-vv-volt-spinner-comming-week.html

Imagine just posted it! :rickroll:

Yippee! Tho I must say I only use the vv for 2 flavors: menthol @ 4 with a 1.8 coil (mini vivi nova) and. Blueberry @ 3.4 w/ a standard 2.4 coil. Anything else seems to taste burnt or 'off'.

Oh but there is such a big wide vape world out there! So many great delivery systems that you can use with the 510 and ego connections in addition to enjoying the SI line of products. So many many choices. ;)

Yes, and it's a bit overwhelming! I'm not sure if I need A or B now. Confusing! That is why I like SI products. I don't have to think, just vape!

Hopefully the FDA won't slam the door shut on us. Otherwise we all will be in a world of trouble! Folks if you haven't seen it, please check this link that JoAnn pointed out: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...2013-e-cigarettes-other-tobacco-products.html Scary stuff!

Hope we all have a great day/evening in Voltville!
 
Morning Voltvilian's! :)

Mr Tail - I meant to say I too like the mustache!
Yes being an 808 thread in a 510 world is a pain. Having a little of each is also. Til a better solution comes along, keeping the 'parts' in zip lock bags - a bit of color coding it's tolerable.

Til SI comes out with a reliable rebuildable clearo I will be forced to pick them up elsewhere but I will always point people to SI to start out.
I keep 2 batts (650's w/ clearo) at the ready for outside the house use.
Then there are 4 w/ mini vivi nova tanks in rotation to keep the taste buds happy! I love the taste in them tho the adapters are a pain & I don't like the tippiness of the connection. The vivi's are rather fragile in that it doesn't take much to strip the threads by over tightening. Outside the biggest problem was forgetting it on the lanyard when leaning over the fence & the pressure easily tipped it off the base just enough to make it leak. 2 now require a bit of plumbers tape!
