I saw a guy on a bike tonight on the freeway with a real small kid holding on, is that legal? :lol:

I tried to capture it with my cell, but dang we were going like 95

Heck, I've seen entire families coming back from market on a motor bike (in Bangkok, and admittedly NOT doing 95 MPH). Most road regs seem to leave it up to the rider to determine whether or not the passenger is able to hang on or not.

I'm pretty sure using your mobile electronic device while driving is not though. :lol:

YooHooo! Four Months! :banana:

Only just past that mark myself. If your experience is anything like mine you've weathered everything that tobacco could throw at you and have the scars to prove it, but are now in a good place.

We still get a curve ball every now and then. I threatened to start smoking again on the weekend when Mrs F demanded that I leave my PV at home. It was quite a barny which ended with me telling her she was not being supportive. The PV came with me but it seems she is embarrassed by my vaping because it *looks* like smoking. Ah well. (...and no, I won't start smoking again just because of that).

Perhaps you could get a little box mod for those situations. I have a tiny plastic 3.7v I won in a contest that's about the size of a business card. The vendor isn't selling patterned ones yet, but plans to. With a 1.7Ω shorty carto it hits brilliantly. You could take stealth hits pretending it was a phone in between.

I was using the K100 in shorty mode, hardly obtrusive.

You've made me think about a bottom feeder inna box for my upcoming 6 month vaperversary though. I'll have to start looking at some options. ;-)

I'm really enjoying the bottom-feeders. It's like dripping upside down, so I'm able to use my favorite dripping atty and get the same intense flavor. But it's not the kind of device that's practical if you change flavors a lot. I've got one flavor in each of them and for variety I switch tanks on the tube mods.

Oh Peeke I love the bear dance. I um sort of had that happen once.

Years ago I was on my bear druid character in town in WoW late at night. There is an unwritten rule if someone does /dance (the command to start dancing) to a bear druid the bear must /dance back. Well someone /dance me so I turned and /dance back and low and behold it was another bear. within about 20 minutes we had bears flying in from all over WoW to join the bear dance party. We ended up with over 200 Bears all dancing in the middle of town!

Lots of squonk talk in here, you folks should be able to help me with something. A while back, someone gave me something called an "Old Goat" (according to them). It's a black plastic 4xAA battery box bottom feeder, it takes 2x14500's and looks like it's regulated to 5v. I haven't used it yet and I've never owned a atomizer. I'm assuming I should be looking for a 3ohm atomizer, but that's all I have to go on. Advice on which atomizer to get and from where would be awesome, especially something rebuildable if that exists.

I use LR, so I haven't shopped around much. I know MVS has good prices for individual 306s through. 3.0 ohm 510 Atomizer - MVari/Lambo

When I go out I only tend to take one flavour and vape it the whole time, so that's not a problem. I suspect the choice of atomiser might be more important though, the only thing I use at the moment is a Phoenix and that's not a bottom feeder - strictly a 12 drop dripper only.

From what I saw your Pheonix and my Octopus are basically the same thing :)

Similar I think, but only designed to have one wick, not four (they call it 'eight' but it's eight ends - hence octopus). There's no reason why you couldn't put extra wicks or even two coils in the Phoenix though, it's just two posts to stick the coil on.

I actually haven't needed to rebuild it yet even though I'm itching to. The 2.2Ω coil it came with has been great and I dry burn it when I change flavours so I can start fresh. It will pop one day, or the wick will hang on to some weird flavour that I've been trying. I wash it in hot water and then dry burn it - comes up fresh as a daisy.

I'm half tempted to do two low resistance coils in series, which is how *I* think dual coils should be done.


Oooooh, now you've done it Myrany. :lol:

Unpacking of my Mark Buggs Chalice V1 $175 back in the day and I still prefer the Squid $8 but in all fairness, I was too new to appreciate the workmanship that went into the Chalice let alone rebuilding.

(It was donated to me in a contest once).

A buddy of mine, twice my age folks. With arthitus, was gonna walk me through it earlier in the year. He passed on before I took him up on his offer. Anyway, here is the photo when I receieved it. If you zoom in you'll see perfectly built micro-coils. Too bad the stock-wick SUCKS. I will never trade, sell, or let this go. Even if I'm not using it yet.

THere is a reason the hubby calls me the instigator!

WHen I bought my first real computer back in the day I was in my first year of teaching and after getting a look at Microsoft Excell said to the hubby "Honey could we make this behaving like a gradebook and do the math for me?"

Well that launched him on a 5 year quest to make it weight grades and drop the lowest grade and keep track of all kinds of things. Dang thing never worked for me bu he swears it did for him.

Ever since then I am not allowed to say "Honey could we..."

I did not care for the octopus, it leaked out the bottom to easily. That sounded weird.

I stuck a toothpick in the bottom hole and drilled a new hole through the cap next to where the coils are, like most RDA's have. That worked out much better for me, but it's still my least favorite out of the 5 RDA's that I have. The Chimbus and IGO-W are much better, although they all do the same thing. I can easily get 30 drops of VG e-liquid in the Chimbus.

You'll have to give Sandra some lessons. She normally starts with "Would you like to...?" which gets the expected response.

Even I know more about male psychology than that, and I am a male. :mad:

I'm making Lasagne at the moment. The way I do it, it takes 1 1/2 hours just to make the bolognaise sauce. If Sandra washes the dishes (not much, I wash as I go) and has no "How would you like to..." then I might just start playing with that dual coil.
