OIY...the last page I read was #666. :laugh:

How's everyone doing?

Hey stranger, how the heck are you? I think you'll find everyone is good, haven't seen KTM post for some time.
I'm just waiting for old man winter to leave, looking forward to some sunshine and warmer weather, come on summer!

I miss anything...like the latest and greatest thing to hit the vaping world? I'm still looking for an RDA that is similar to the Pharaoh without its shortcomings.

RDA? or RTA? I don't know much about RDA's, I only use RDA's for BF'ing.
The pulse 22 is my favourite BF Atty, By far! I have 7 of them :)
I have converted all my BF'ers to the pulse 22 :)
Morten Oen explains how the Air flow produces such a great flavour, on his pulse 24 video

If your looking for a new tank? That is like the Pharaoh? The Kylin Mini & Bachelor X are pretty good :) They both have sort of the same style deck, they are both No JFC atty's, that are short, but still have decent capacity with a Bubble glass.
Also If you have an Aromamizer Supreme V1 or 2, they make a new single coil deck, similar to the Pharaoh deck, it works real good to :)
To be honest thou, the pharaoh is still one of, if not the best flavour Tank I have/Use.
I know lots will disagree, But for me it still works the Best! :)

to me the current version of the Aromamizers have made me just no longer care about anything else, barring something truly game changing, I'm set... The from-the-side, actual working AFC & the (really thirsty btw) jfc design together with the hadaly-style single coil or w/e deck you decide to use (the flat deck in the plus, which my gf uses, is also really good) is the first atty in 7 years that I can't find a thing I don't like about it or wish was different (after Willie sent me some screws anyways). The irony isn't lost on me that this cheap Chinese atty is better than 8 years of "high end" junk.

I just got another four Aromamizer V1s. They work fine for me and I've got enough spare glass, spare decks and spare O rings to last for, probably thirty years or so. The V2 is nice, too, and I've got four of those as well. Never tried a Supreme, these are more than adequate. I'm retiring the Foggers, Merlins and Bachelors and sticking to Aromamizers and a few FEV V3 and V4.

I have a VF 40 watt Waidea clone in perfect condition that I'm going to send to my friend in PA.
Along with a mini sub-tank clone and (10) 3rd party coil heads.
Batteries and a 120 ml bottle of 0 nic juice will also be included.

0 nic? From smoking to no nic? Yikes! I couldn't do that and not fail.

I've got the Pharaoh RDA & RTA w/multiple decks. My 3 Aromamizers have all been collecting dust, unfortunately. Maybe I should revisit them.

Head's up on a closeout sale for 12 volt outdoor yard lights at Lowes, I wanted a pair of brighter spot lights for my flag on the tall pole out front. I installed a pair of 250 lumen spot lights last fall and they are OK but I've wanted brighter lights. The LED's in the two I had have fixed LED's, not plug and play. :(

By chance I found these on sale at a local Lowes reduced to $5.40 each, they had eight and I bought the all. Shop Portfolio 50-Watt Black Low Voltage Halogen Spot Light at Lowes.com
Note: I checked online the stock in three different Lowes close to me, the sale price varied at one store, two stores were $5.40 the other was $11.19 guess the stores independently set their closeout prices. These are the same brand as the LED spotlights I bought last fall but these use plug in halogen bulbs like this,
043168646826S.jpg

They are brighter but they get hot and they draw a lot more watts/amps then the LED spot lights I have now. Checking the bulbs included the box at the store I found they take a MR16 based bulb, two prongs as above. So I went over to the light bulb isle and grabbed a three pack of MR16 LED bulbs for $18. These will do nicely, I'll just swap the bulbs out and I'll have them up today. Shop Utilitech 3-Pack 50 W Equivalent Dimmable Soft White MR16 LED Flood Light Bulbs at Lowes.com

I'll get more of the MR16 LED's off Amazon cheaper and use the rest of these spotlights around the yard. They also have a bunch of other yard lights on sale, none were marked down this much.

Forgot to add, they also had this 12 volt supply on sale, decent price. Shop Portfolio 120-Watt 12-Volt Multi-Tap Transformer Landscape Lighting Transformer with Digital Timer with Dusk-To-Dawn Sensor at Lowes.com
Using LED's you can run a lot more lamps and get the same lumens then with those that use the halogen bulbs.

ETA: If your only running a couple LED lights you won't need a 120 watt supply and can go with a less expensive one. Figure out the total wattage of your lights, add up the wattage and add a little wiggle room to figure out how big of a supply you'll need.

What's this world coming to? Another school shooting, but this time there was an armed "resource officer" who ended it very quickly, rather than waiting outside.

I'm sticking with all LED floods, Willie. I light up the whole yard with 320 watts versus only half the yard at 2000 watts. I got a 12 volt, 10 watt, LED flood I plan on putting on the tractor rather than the crappy tail light bulbs that it came with.

I saw that on the news, so sad. I also see they found another bomb outside a FedEx but this one hadn't detonated yet, hopefully they'll be able to disarm it instead of having to blow it up so they can hopefully get some good evidence to lead them to the nut job. There isn't a law that can be made to stop sick, crazy or evil people, but they keep using tragedies to score today's talking points, while the families grieve. Never let a good tragedy go to waste.....

I was thinking the same thing while looking at those 12V LED bulbs, maybe I can adapt them to my JD in place of the old headlamp bulbs I have on it now.

I've got a old long tube halogen bulbed motion light out back that lights my shop if anyone walks near it, also makes it nice if I walk out there at night it lights it up for me. But the cats, snow and even a hard rain will kick it on and it's costing me coin to run it. I'm going to take two or three of these lights I picked up, put the LED bulbs in them, run a 12V line to them and wire them up to the motion senor that's on that lamp housing now.
