And you see...I find the cooler the vape, the more flavor. And that has been pretty much across the board. That doesn't mean some juices might not taste better at a warmer temp, but that's only because I didn't like the flavor at all at lower temps. Any change would be an improvement...if you know what I mean?

Who makes a VV bottom feeder? REO?

You can get good flavor at lower temps as long as your resistance is high enough. 6 watts with an SR atty will taste fuller (and cooler) than 6 watts on an LR atty.

I just set my Zmax to 5 watts with a T3 filled with HA in it. Puff puff puff.. poof!

It's like drinking water when you're expecting Rum. I don't know how y'all do such low watts. :(

Well, I'm not that cool. I'd be around 6 - 6.5 watts on a bottom coil. April would like 5 watts on the T3 though. If someone made a juice feeder with a chiller on it, she'd be their first customer.

Understood. :) It's like baking a pot roast at 290 degrees Vs 375. You end up at the same spot but there isn't any burnt ends when you slow cook it and it's a lot more tender.

I know the HH came from the initials of creator's first and last name; where the .357 came from beats me, maybe it just sounded cool.
When I saw 0.357 written instead of just 357 that's why I mentioned it. The 357 caliber bullet means that it is 0.357 inches wide. The atomizer barrel is the exact caliber or width as the bullet. So, ice poet is correct. Any caliber is just a measurement in inches. A 38 is 0.38 inches wide. A 357 is also 9mm wide but a 9mm bullet is all that width where the 357 is only that wide at the projectile and widens to 0.40 inches width at the shell casing. Since the 357 atty is entirely 0.357 inches wide the hh9 is actually a more appropriate name just not as cool sounding.

I would get a VV bottom feeder if/when I get a bottom feeder. Who are good vendors for the REO?

reosmods.com

Why in Photobucket when I resize the picture then copy it to ECF it doesn't show the resized picture?

When you use the "Insert Image" in the post editor, ECF compresses the image (depending on how it is accessed) in order to store it on the server, and it comes out smaller. If you upload an image from your PC, it will be compressed. If you enter a URL to the image and have ECF retrieve the file and store it locally, it will be compressed. If you enter a URL and uncheck the retrieve file checkbox, it should come out as the full size. You can also just copy the "IMG code" in Photobucket and paste it directly in your post bypassing the post editor altogether. It will be full size that way too.

X, I do the latter...copy the IMG code in my post. So that explains why I am always getting full sized pix (even when I downsize the pix in Photobucket first). ECF over-compresses pictures with finer detail (too small). But then the copied IMG size is too big. Are there options to have something in the middle? I see people posting mid-size pix all the time.

If you upload to Flickr you can choose between various sizes to hotlink from. :)

Well now wait a minute! I just went back to the picture I posted earlier (post #1712) and it is mid sized. I swear to you when I first posted it, it was full size (that's why I asked how to do mid sized pix). I downsized it in Photobucket first before copying the IMG code to my post.

Now why would it first appear full size and then go back to mid size? I swear I didn't do a dang thing.

Du you uncheck that box in the linking option here(the save locally option)? If not it will be resized by the forum software. I always uncheck and choose the size I want myself.
In photobucket you can't choose between various sizes to link from.

I've never uploaded from a URL (that I can remember). Like I say, I just copy/paste the IMG code from photobucket into my post. I need to check out that URL method and the box. I also think I have a Flickr account that I set up years ago and haven't been back since.

Thanks Blix!
