For anyone interested in a pulse bf, see Myvpro at 10 EST tonight - $20, quantities limited. The kit version, with a pulse 24, is $30. No 20700 batteries provided, but they include an 18650 adapter.


That Nudge is 24.99 and kind of pretty. Anyone know anything about it ?

Nudge is a single 18650 mostly mech squonker. The body is a plastic with carbon fiber style surface finish. It's got a locking fire button (looks like 1/4 turn). It has some kind of short circuit protection (The green thing between the bottle and the battery).

lolzzz all the color options for that Pulse are showing out of stock
I think they've done that so people can't order before 10pm. All the products on the doorbuster page are showing unavailable on that page, though I can order them going through the normal site search (at higher prices).

Oceanus - after a few days use (got it Saturday)

This will contradict what some other owners have said, but the battery life on the Oceanus is not very impressive in my opinion. I bought 2 of the Sanyo 4000 mAh 20700b batteries, and even using those I am not impressed with the battery life. It's a very nice mod, but not one for taking out and about unless you want to carry multiple spare batteries:(

Curious - what power are you running at? When I'm in the mid 20s I get really solid run time, a lot of vaping, definitely better than with a DNA/18650 combination.

Also, do you run the batteries all the way down? It's fine to run them right up until you reach electronics cutout, The red light comes on when they have a decent amount of power left.

I was running them at 70 watts with the Scion stock coils.
I am now running them at 45 watts with the RBA head.

Are you running them at mid 20 watts?

When my light goes to yellow, I continue to use them but the quality of the vape (power I guess, or lack of) goes down a LOT so I replace and recharge

The 20700b aren't really good for 70W. They're a 16A battery, proper working space is sub 50w, I use them for 40W and lower.

Yes, I really vape mid 20s much of the time [emoji5] (on regulated mods) I'll run though anywhere from 15 - 25 ml/day (weekends are the lower number - I vape a lot at my desk jockey job). On my pulse/pulse setup I'll vape 30 - 40W (40W only when the battery is right at 4.2V).

For 70W the Ampking is the better battery. Mooch rates it as an honest 30A, 3000 mAh, which I expect is better mAh than any 18650 30A.

I'll just use the Oceanus for the tank with the RBA. According to Steamengine - 45 watts is correct for my build. 26 gauge, 7 wraps, 3.5 mm diameter. Comes out to .55 ohms/dual coil. I do get better longevity with the RBA at 45 watts, so all is good.

Glad to hear it's doing better at lower power [emoji5]

For higher power, the ampking looks like it's about as good as it gets right now in terms of decent mAh for fairly high Amps, while the 20700b is highest mAh at lower power.

Check mooch's 26650 table: 26650 Safety Grades and Pulse Performance Data | E-Cigarette Forum


Per his chart, The 26650 keeppower cdr is really 10A.

The keeppower 20700 you linked to got a very good rating by mooch, 30A and 2900 mAh. This are the same numbers as for the ampking batteries that you received with the Oceanus.

Myvpro sale is running now, got my pulse bf.

I'm actually doing quite well. Chemo is working slowly but surely. :D

Numbers are improving so that is a blessing. CT or PET scan after Thanksgiving will tell us more. I have an appointment with a doctor in one of the top 10 cancer centers in the country (rated #7 on the list) so I am getting a second opinion on what comes next. That appointment is on the 21st in Philadelphia.

I am still positive that I will beat this. There is no other option ;)

Like my oncologist said, I look fantastic and anybody that I happen to tell I have cancer, cannot believe it. I don't feel like I have it. She said that I am LIVING with cancer... I said I AM LIVING. Period. Cancer is just something that is dying inside me. Each time I get treatment it is killing even more of it.

I am doing Great!
This is sooooooooooo wonderful to hear! I'd actually seen the response back when I asked it forever ago when I came on to check something else, but just haven't been able to be on long enough to catch up and reply. You have an amazing attitude, and I do believe that counts for a lot. Can't wait to celebrate you beating this!! :)

She is coming to his family for help in making decisions, & advice. And comfort. I'm so glad she has us to love her thru this.
I'm really glad she has y'all. Stinks the way her family is treating her

A quick search came up with these two studies. The first one is a peer-reviewed paper, 27 pages. The second one is about dandelion for pancreatic cancer.

The Efficacy of Dandelion Root Extract in Inducing Apoptosis in Drug-Resistant Human Melanoma Cells

Selective induction of apoptosis and autophagy through treatment with dandelion root extract in human pancreatic cancer cells. - PubMed - NCBI

And this one has some interesting things to say about dandelions for health issues. BTW I know nothing about the website (healthline) but I didn't check their info anywhere else.
7 Ways Dandelion Tea Could Be Good for You
This is very interesting. I did look it up for other cancers also since my sil has lung cancer. No real studies done, but I did come across a couple interesting things.
Dandelion Root Cancer Treatment - Cancer Tutor

This seems to be raw rather than roasted. Some will scoff at the guy who says God told him what to do and how to do it, but he seems to think heat from roasting or too much from drying could destroy the benefits. Of course he could be a crackpot :lol:

I am soooo behind. Several pages to catch up now.
Been a bit hectic around here. Oldest grandson is home on leave from the Army. Poor guy ships out the 12th to his new post, in Hawaii. :)
His brother's birthday was Sunday, and we had the party here.
Younger grandkids visiting... And this was the weekend the wife decided to have a yard sale. o_O
oh kewl! If he needs a live in personal assistant, or substitute granny, I'm available! :D

Got another "prayers and white light" request. Friend of ours is having some radical "girl parts" surgery to try to remove uterine cancer.

Thanks.... Women, please remember to get your annual exams....
I missed the prayer call, but am so thrilled to know the surgery went so well. Really stinks her hubby couldn't be off work to be there.

naww, i wanna give him a belly rub :wub:
Hey darlin.........good to see you! I'm with Tim, you need to stick around. Great group here.

Yay, back home again [emoji5]

It was a good trip, but it's nice to be back with dw and the mutts [emoji5]
Glad you made it there and home again safe and sound!

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

Drum Roll please...

Today, at the Ocala Dog show Belgian Tervuren Regional Specialty, Geordi, Bijou Luisant Kontinuing Mission, CA, TKN, CGC, was handled expertly by his breeder to Winner's Dog and Best of Winner's for a 5 point major!!! This is a big deal in dog shows! He is now, with very limited showing, 1/2 way to his Championship!!! To say I am on cloud nine tonight is an understatement. Possibly another 5 point major tomorrow, but ya never know!!

Go GMan!!

He's slightly more regal than our lunes
but she's just as precious!!

We have dinner planned at one of my nieces house. Probably only 13 this year. Mama drama may mean we don't get to go.

Hope you can go, and mama drama is non existent, or at least at a minimum.

The kids go to her Aunt's house about an hour away, so I had planned a T-giving for my sil, nephew, and my son's dad since none of us really have plans. But my dil wanted to participate in it, but decided at the last minute they just couldn't handle the stress of that with all their other plans so I had to change it. o_O I did tell her that although it would be great if she could take part, that it was really for just us since we have no other plans, but that didn't make a difference. I went ahead and cooked the turkey anyhow since that needed to happen, so earlier tonight, I made some smashed taters and gravy, and tonite will make some stuffin. Only using a portion of the stuff we bought for the big supper since she still wants to do it Tues which is my son's bday.

Hope everyone has a marvelous thanksgiving! And even if you don't have anyone to celebrate with, make it a special time of giving thanks anyhow!
