My apologies. it was DWCraig that I remember saying it was possible to preheat Kanthal builds with that curve in the DNA75 thread. I just can't keep anything straight anymore. Early onset I assume.

I bet Trump is wishing we could forget the things he's said....... :rolleyes:
Thought his "apology" tried to put the 10 year old comments in perspective & was fairly well done, The flap seems blown way out of proportion as they usually are. Comments were crude & odd even if in a locker room.

Doesn't bother me at all, this is nothing more the dirty politics. I'd like to know how much they paid to get that recording, I'm sure Trump knows who was there during that conversation. That's what he needs to say along with the apology. You should read some of the things hillary has said to police, secret service and staff, not any better. On Fox today there was talk he should step down because of this, really?? :facepalm:

Sitting down, facing forward.
I think the whole thing is just another waste of time. Every one of the hypocrites in Washington has said things like that and worse. Now they all play "holier than thou". It's disgusting to say the least, the reactions more disgusting than the original comments. Trump never had political ambitions until recently and therefor never took the "precautions" regular politicians take as a way of life to hide their true feelings and personalities.

It's odd that none of the emails leaked by WikiLeaks are being mentioned in the lame stream media. I guess it just doesn't fit the narrative that they promote. So much for news media.

That seems doable with the new firmware allowing for material type changes on the mod. Set the profiles up for 40w,60w,80w....etc and just swap material types on the selected profile. I like it, even if it is a couple more button presses.
So, gave this a try per @SlickWilly 's programming and instantly remembered why preheats don't work great for me. It's my vaping style. I take 6-10 pulls in a row and set my mod down for a while. Then repeat. I set my power levels for between 10% and 15% higher than needed to reach temp anyway so not having preheat set only effects the first and second of my long string of pulls (a little longer heat up time). Setting preheats higher than 10-15% above what's needed (like 25%) puts a slight burny edge to my 3rd or 4th pull or so because the coil is already hot.
I mostly vape diy nets which are extremely sensitive to overheating so I've reverted back to wire specific profiles where all I have to do is select the appropriate profile on the mod for the build and adjust power and temp.
Still, I like slickwilly's approach if my vaping style and juice allowed for it.

Like that he apologized if the 10yr old comments offended and just moved on and addressed other issues to put in perspective.

I have heard utterly filthy things in locker rooms & participated at times so I can certainly excuse it, but the comments were just unexpectedly odd to say in that way.

Republicans are calling for him to Withdraw to maintain congressional seats & calling to shift financial support. Ridiculous. Sure it will be brought up in the debate.

Thought preheat only kicked in if you were significantly below temp. At least I never noticed it in my Escribe charting or vape when chainvaping..

Yeah I heard them mention the emails once today. You know they pay people to dig up dirt, then they hold it until they think they will make the biggest impact, just like releasing this tape on Trump the same day these emails are leaked. How stupid are people that they can't see this? You would think Fox would be smart enough to figure it out, but then again, Fox is more in bed with the rest of the media then most are willing to admit.

The Dummie got caught on a hot Mic.

Now dont get me wrong, I despise Trump, and would NEVER vote for him. However his biggest sin here was that he got caught on tape. How many men can honestly say they have never made equally crude comments "among the guys"? It was locker room talk, and yes, most guys can be sexist pigs on occasion, myself included. (just think of our morning coffee and comments made there) For that matter, how many women can honestly say they havent made crude comments about men when just "among the girls". I have overheard some conversations gals have when they think no men can hear them.

The dummie just got caught!
