jj - I don't even know what it is, but it is beautiful. What color did you get?

Tink - my black one went through something similar. Down to skin and bones. We had every test imaginable done. Vet found nothing and suggested it may just be one of those weird, unexplainable immune system things cats can develop. Put him on kitty prednisone (prednisolone) and all is well again. No vomiting, normal weight. Have you eliminated thyroid?

OMG....Tink. I did not realize he was so little. Maybe he has an undiagnosed health problem is the reason for the messes. :(

Hi, Beachers....back reading. But only a couple of pages behind so should be along soon.

Hi Glam.

Like Tink, I though this Away Mission was with your hubby. What's in Michigan?

Did you Win that puppy? What color did you get?

I'm pretty sure that battery goes in from the bottom. When I saw it worked like the Squall, I didn't play for it.

That was the VC Contest, right?

I posted Gratz to you over there. :D

Yes I did. I like it too. :D
You have to buy the battery charger so I need a charger. I don't think I got the right one so will have to order.

Cadeau has only vomited like 6-7 times since I got her last March, but it seems to be increasing. How do you eliminated thyroid?

She's at about 11 pounds now, so she doesn't have a weight issue, but do you think prednisolone might be good anyway? As a sort of preventative thing?

Depending on your charger, you can get a 14500 adapter to take up the space and charge it in the one you have. You prolly have more than one 18650 charger. Look at the (+) post to see if you can see small screw threads. If so, you can get a space adapter.

You'd need one about 15mm long for it to fit into an 18650 charger and charge a 14500.

Hi there, beach! What's happening?

Sun, thanks for the Brian William/Lester Holt vid. I just love Brian Williams. He's the best. I've really enjoyed his appearances on SNL, too.

Tink, my hubs is a complete clothes hound. Really. It's disgusting. You should see his closet. I'm the one tapping my foot when we're shopping.

Glam: I'm worried about that knee. That's all. Just worried. :(


Today I had a meltdown. Long story, but had a new front door installed yesterday. Crack in (wood, nice, expensive) door. Everybody blaming each other, passing the buck (manufacturer rep, dealer, carpenter, finisher). Clearly manufacturing defects besides the crack (machining, etc.).

Anyway, I was ......, really ......, and feeling "handled". So ...... that I dropped a couple f-bombs in a couple of phone conversations; not something I normally do. My carpenter, who I've known for over 10 years said, "I've never heard you talk like that before!!!!", almost in admiration. Anyway, he told me he was demanding a replacement from the dealer or he would take the old (removed) one and throw it through the front window of their showroom. I guess it pays to b!tch under the right circumstances. We'll see what happens.

On a lighter note, here is the cab I made the other night.

Oh, Lisa.....the cab is f...ing beautiful! :laugh:

ProVape ships 4 of them with their pila charger. Maybe you could get them separately there.

The adapters are the black round things in the charger.

If a vet suspects thyroid, they'll run a T3 test, possibly also a free T4 test. Very similar to humans. "Free" meaning in bloodstream, not at no cost.

With the prednisolone.....much like prednisone in humans, it is not something you want to give long term unless there is no other option, I believe. Also, it has to be the cat version, since their livers are unable to metabolize the human version so essentially, the human version can harm them.

It takes this kind of charger.

You should be able to use it OK. It will charge the battery at 450mAh, if that's the one I sent you. But I thought that Mod had a 14500 in it. Maybe it comes apart at the top section, below the vape button.

OHHHHH.....I like!!! What are these? I have not ordered anything for 3 days....it is time!

JJ is still determining if it has a replaceable 14500, or a sealed battery. It's a good bit bigger around than your Squall, and a good bit longer, too.

It's an X6 Ego Variable 1300mah Battery.
X6 Ego Variable 1300mah Battery [1300 X6] - $21.00 : Vapors Choice, Ecigarettes & Parts

Seems to be a sealed battery. :(

Battery capacity 1300mAh
Battery weight 66g
Battery Length 103mm
Battery diameter 20mm
Input voltage 5V
Output voltage 3.6/3.8/4.2V
Charging time 3-5hours

jj....this looks like it does not come apart....that you charge it just like an ego. Battery and casing look to be one to me.

I got the kind of battery charger it will need. Just can't remember what it was for. It's in a drawer in the bedroom and DH is on his way to bed. I will check it out later.

Nice win JJ, but I have to agree with you; I think that is the battery from the description :unsure:

Pretty creation Lisa and hello :)
Don't think I've seen you today?

Thanks, Dale. It's a start! -and hello to you to. No - just plunked myself right in here this evening. I was busy cursing the rest of the day. :laugh:

And an official hello to VG, Glam, jj, Tink (if/when she returns)
