Ha! This is a low potency acid...much lower than muratic. But then, it's not morning yet.In an odd way, I kind of want to wreck a Vivi so I can tear it apart and find those air passages that are hidden down the stem cylinder. Those are the buggers that get clogged up and restrict air flow. I'm just curious as to where they are.
Warning, possible ickiness ahead.
So, sometime between macadamia nut coffee and now, I'm at work doing my usual chores, and my right eye feels funny like there's a mascara flake in there. I start welling up with tears My assistant manager looks at me and says "Your eye is REALLY red". I look in the mirror and it's horror-movie time, plus the surface of my eye itself is swollen, and when I blink it looks like I have a contact lens in there, except I don't.
I run down to the optical shop and ask if they know any eye doctors in the neighborhood. One very kindly agrees to see me on a moment's notice. Turns out to be "episcleritis", an inflammation of the eyeball surface. I excuse myself from work because frankly I look kind of gross. Now I'm home with some very expensive steroid eyedrops and some antihistamines. Still weeping from one eye.
No idea how that happened.
Dragon's Fire vapor soothes the itch though. LOL.
I've found a new method (new to me) to clean attys. Someone mentioned this in one of the cleaning threads, and they were basically ignored by the other posters. I figured what the heck, worse case I'll waste a few bucks. I tried this out last night and am wowed by it. My nova heads came out looking like they were practically brand new. White as snow wicks, shiny coils, no dry burning, even the insulation sleeve is white again. I've tried boiling, Vodka, Everclear, ultra-sonic cleaners, and this beats them all hands down. The trick you ask. Polident tablets. last night, I put five heads in a small glass of water, put in a tab, and let them sit overnight. When I rinsed them off this morning I was astonished.
I'm better, the horror-movie redness is gone, although I'm still crying.
Thinking about how many Nova heads I could have rescued if I'd known about that Polident trick.

) Got a question for the lavatubers here: which batts do ya'll recommend? I've been looking on the SuperT site at the AWs and the Panasonic Hybrid IMR 18650s. Wondering if I'm headed in the right direction. Oh, I have the YJ LT btw. Thanks guys! I really have to hit the hay, it's been a long one. Good nite Army!
