I vaped it pretty dry then filled it, no dry hit just kind of fizzled out.

This is with my Dovpo College, voltage drop is on the poor side probably due to the tiny tabs on the battery cap. Not really much of a problem though I guess. The dip is 3.5 volts @ 45 watts.

I've seen DNAs handle a dry wick in either one or two ways. One, it hits the set temperature during the whole puff and stays there (not completely dry). Or two, it quickly stops firing soon at the start of the puff. My guess is it sees the coil temperature rising way too fast for a wet wick and just stops firing.

My 1 year promotion with Cox Communications was about to end, I was saving $90 per month with the promotion.
So I call them up to see what other promotion that they have for me. I tell them I want the same services. I'm told the one they have is the same as mine but instead of 300 Mbs down internet it's got the 500 Mbps. About $20 more a month I'm told and I get it. Within 10 minutes or less I'm back on the phone with them and not happy. My 300 down service had 30 Mbps up and the 500 Mbps had 10 up. I ended up getting the 940 Mbps dn/ 35 up for another $10.
In older days up speed was always about 1/8th down speed, I wouldn't mind 125 Mbps up.

Edit: I ended up ordering a new wireless router that does 802.11ac wave2 as my Airport Extreme is a bit outdated. Wireless only gets up the 90 Mbps at my place. I run my desktop wired.

What do you need the upload speed for? Are you running a server of some kind? Otherwise, for casual browsing, UL speed is rarely a bottleneck.

I hate cable companies. Their whole business model is a scam. I get my inet from the city. Its been a flat $80 a month for the last 3 years, no upsell pressure, no promos, just bandwidth.

Anybody ever seen these Vape Snaps before? First time I've seen them and NCC mentioned them on the Bargain Bin Treasures thread. Looks like they will make rebuilding easier too. I might also be able to get a wire in there too so I can hook up my scopes to the 510. :D
