Good morning. It's pretty overcast here this morning but a mild 61 degrees. Going up to 77 today! We're expected to have heavy winds which could be a problem for trees after all the rain we just had.

Looks like we're going to be having an Easter Egg hunt here for the 4 grandsons the Saturday before Easter. Due to covid the public places are not having their usual hunts so we're going to do it for them. We use plastic eggs for the outside hunt so I think I'm going to go to the craft and dollar store to get some prizes they can claim when they open their eggs. They've got plenty of candy, I'd like to see them get some things they can play with.

Morning, all.

Yeah, it's the time of year when Momma N likes to be a big tease!

Between storms atm, heading towards the low 60s. Might be that way until Monday. Or not.

Hola .. :)

Well, my final hunt for vape gear I suppose is coming to a close, you know, whether I like it or not .. o_O

Lightfire still has stock on the innokin Zbiip at $6.00 a pop .. I got the ones I ordered the other day and another case/brick of Z-coils .. have not tried one, figured I'd pick Frannie's brain on that since she uses them ..

LightFire Distribution (kangerwholesaleusa.com)

Scored two more new ones as well as 4 new pods from an ECF person for $30.00 delivered .. and, another very nice Man cut me a deal on some Zenith Pro tanks .. I don't really know anything about those tanks, but they do take the Z-Coils, so that's enough for now ..

Products out there online in the Vape shops seem to be getting fairly thin at this point, and, I've noticed things being priced above retail, like Zlides .. also, some spots have had a dramatic increase in shipping costs ..

Signs of the Times ..

    What is it you want to pick my brain about? The Zenith Pro is not my kind of tank but there’s nothing wrong with it, just bigger than I like. I won one in a contest awhile back and gifted it to a friend.

    They are really smart critters! My feeder is hanging off a rod that's attached to the deck railing at an angle. I mixed a LOT of cayenne pepper in the suet and it turns out they like it. The best thing I've found is threading the rod through plastic bottles. That way the bottle twists when they try to climb it and they fall off. Not sure it that will work for an upright pole.

    They're cute little guys, but they chase all the birds away and you DON'T want one in your attic! We used to be overrun with them until a Coopers Hawk started hanging around and we've also spotted a fox. I think one or both have reduced our squirrel population to 2. Maybe I should send the hawk and fox to your house for a visit!

    There's huge wild turkeys that come thru from the woods to clean up the seed on the ground...wish I could get a pet one and hook it to a chain....wait...then I'd have to clean up it's "droppings":eek:

    The use of a Zbiip with a 1.6 coil .. although I have not unwrapped one yet, and I'm sure it comes with instructions, I figured an expert would be nice to get input from .. :)

    Obviously, not Fran but only thing a bit different is if you want to change the 'boost' mode. Red is hardest hit, can't remember the order of green and blue. To change it, power off then hold fire button down. It will cycle through red, green and blue. Stop on whichever you want, then power device back on.

    Prime the coil first, remove the pod, unscrew the ait flow adjuster and pull out the coil. Wash tank , install primed coil, screw airflow adjuster back in and turn it to your desired airflow. Snap pod back on. Twist to open and fill. Vape.

    LOL, I forgot that part. Mine stays on blue.

    Not a fan of the Wild Turkey's .. unless it comes in a bottle .. :p

    A few years back, my truck was parked in the driveway as it usually is, since my garage is essentially a storage building .. I go out that morning, and a Wild Turkey flock / Momma and the Turkets / had passed through the 'hood .. my truck had these thin, short, vertical lines on both sides, and plenty of them .. apparently, the flock had seen it's reflection and started pecking .. the good news was, a good hand wax job took them off ..

    Wax on, Wax off ..

    Having just finally upgraded to the Aegis Solo and a Zlide last year, based on the Collectives recommendations, with a 1.6 coil, coming from EVODs and what not, I set the Solo at 6.5, which seems the most comfortable to me .. so, are any of the settings equivalent to that or does it matter .. ??

    Probably blue but try them out and see what you like. I like the red, hardest hitting one. I think the blue is the softest but can't remember between blue and green. I know the red is the highest setting.

    Been a long while since I've set a biip up but I think you'll be happy with blue. Try it.

    I generally carry my Solo/Zlide in my shirt pocket, yes, it tends to make the shirt look lopsided but what do I care .. ?? At any rate, a few times, the power up/down has rested against something, maybe a pen I guess, and it went up to 100 and I did not know it .. that is, until I took a hit .. surprisingly, it did not fry the coil, I just moved it back to 6.5 and it was still all good .. Go figure ..

    I’ve actually had that happen a time or two with no damage to the coil. I love the Z’s.
