You're planting, we're just at the end of night freezes :)

Night freezes? What is freezes?

Just wanted to clarify, since it occurred to me that not everyone is familiar with Michigan and therefore some might read more into one of my posts than was actually there. You see, there really is a town in MI called Climax, and it really is about 20 miles from Interstate 69. So I was making a perfectly innocent comment with absolutely no innuendo or connotations, I swear.:evil:
How'd that get there, it was supposed to be one of these...:angel:
:evil::evil::evil:
See, here is proof.

So anyone who read it differently needs to get their mind out of the gutter.;)

pssst... @tejas Think anyone will buy my story?

Well certainly, makes sense to me.

Day #11 on my vapor beast order. It left Jacksonville Fl yesterday morning at 5:26 am by Pony Express headed towards the destination. I'll never order from them again. They've been sitting on MY money since April 2nd and here it is the 13th and I still have nothing to show for it. :?:
that's completely cray - i have never had an issue with an order from them... if it has the right address on it when it shows up, i would prolly lay that one at USPS's feet, honestly...

BRRRR.. we don't get much of that around here. When it hits 40, people start moaning about how cold it is.
I spend a year in Missouri, a number of years ago. I was hoping for a white Christmas, but it didn't happen. 5 days later, on my birthday, it starts snowing, and doesn't stop for 2 weeks. I do not like snow since then, snow is evil.

Anudda wunnerful day, hope everyone is enjoying the morning.

As usual, HG is on the ball. Evan's set to replace my DOA already.

Looking like booful weather today through the weekend. Thinking of taking tomorrow off, if I can clear out a few work items today.

The 5lb of San Jose beans should be in Sat, and I just wrapped an outgoing kawvee mail :)

It's BEE-EWE-TEE-FUL here :) Supposed to get into the 60s today and around 70s by the weekend!!!!!

You know, I have read a couple of posts, "complaining" about the shipping charges from HG. Yes, you're getting great prices buying from China, but you have to PAY for HG's shipping. However, it's usually here in a few DAYS, not WEEKS as with other overseas suppliers.... And, I've heard nothing but good comments regarding HG's service.

So, it's all a matter of what's more important, I think. In the grand scheme, it all kinda works itself out in the wash..... No sense griping

HG has some fabulous customer service! Sometimes it's worth paying the shipping cause they are fast (unlike Slowtech who still has part of my last order still not ready to ship 2 weeks after I made the order!)

Has anybody seen the Wismec Theorem tank? It uses a fancy pre-built coil, but it's an RTA. I thought it was pretty interesting... may have to pick one up at some point.

I checked MVS, but they're out of stock... for $25 (give or take), it might be worth getting one just to try it out. Just might have to keep an eye out and find me one!

Those do look pretty cool...and should be a pretty good flavor maker with that kind of surface area!

Those coils look really cool.

Yeah, they call them NotchCoils. Would probably even work in other tanks/rdas... they are 0.23Ω coils, though. Not a problem for me, but definitely not for everyone. I believe they are SS coils with non-resistance leads, if I'm remembering what I read, correctly. So maybe some mods would allow them to be used in TC mode?

I know, right?!?!? Probably gunk up like crazy with sweet juices, but should be fairly simple to clean, I'd think... a little PGA and a pipe cleaner should do the trick...

I've seen the coils, but haven't paid much attention to the tank yet. That looks pretty cray, for sure.

Speaking of coils got a question here: So I got the Griffin RTA, I put dual claptons in the velocity style deck. I wicked and juiced. She runs at .29-.34 ohms. Got here up to 50 Watts. Then POP, and horrible inhale. So check the coils, one coil got snapped off. It actually blew apart. So recoiled it and the same thing happened. Anyone have an idea of how to fix this?
