Oh boy! Vapegasm #3459.

Got the Big Buddha recoiled with 30g Kanthal weighing in at 0.5 ohm with dual parallel coils and loaded with Bombay from NET.com. Whoa, looks like we're making rain clouds at Hotel Chak tonight.

Best be careful I'm starting to wonder if it's contagious.

Well now this is interesting. I didn't have any luck with the Asprie.

2 ml tank with a .5ohm sub-ohm coil?! How often is that going to need topping off?! It may as well have been a deep well dripper.

I don't have any issue with the 2ml portion ... especially if you're vaping a NET which can clog up a coil quickly. I do have an issue with them inferring that improved flavor/vapor has something to do with sub-ohming ... which is a old wives tale that began only because mech mods require them to reach higher power outputs. Good flavor/vapor is more about the surface area of the coil, the air flow coming to the coil and how quickly you can get the coil up to temp. Those using mech mods don't have a choice if they want higher wattages... the newer higher power regulated mods can do the same more efficiently by increasing the voltage instead.

Better than with your head up your ...., I guess.. but maybe just marginally!

One more before I hit the rack. I had a scare while in the kitchen baking today - my provari with the KFL plus on it took tumble off the table with a full tank of delicious juice (The Boss from NET.com) in it. When it hit the floor the tank flew apart and all the juice splattered everywhere. I thought, crap there goes the KFL, but good think it was the clone.

After retrieving the parts, I was surprised to find that nothing was broken! The tank separated with the threads still intact... I cleaned it up filled it and it works fine and so does the Provari, btw. Happy camper again.

Note: one less juice review to do also

The air is better up there.

I'm glad everything survived! You're getting a reputation with your gear. A little hard on it.

I drop mine at night a lot. I leave it on the night stand next to my water. I'd say 5/7 nights I grab my water and the Prov/KFL tumbles.

April, why don't you just lay it down to begin with?

I've been known to do that once or twice, but it's usually due to reaching for my phone/alarm at 3:30 a.m.

You don't just lay a Provari/KFL down..

That's brilliant! I seriously never thought to do that. And it won't roll off because of the button. I just tried it out. Thanks!

You restore my faith in humanity, you know?!

Thanks for putting a big smile on my face, April!

Happy to be of service!

Off to make cookies. Goodnight!

Honestly don't know what I'd do without her - she really keeps me on my toes. (Sometimes with a feather and sometimes with a 2x4. )

I've been there, done that - now I have a special holder for whatever device I bring to bed sitting on the self above my water.
