We're doing this one, in case anybody is interested :D



I'm glad you survived alive. I know the guy that runs that thing and clips you in. He's got a problem with alcohol and prescription pills. I guess you were one of the lucky ones.:laugh:



Sun one more week done. You now have 11 Mondays to go??

OMG Tink. I'm so glad you are all right. I'd love to do the zip line. I'm surprised you are going because you have to be sore.

Dale you are still a young thing!!!!


Big HELLO to Pepper cause I don't want him to feel left out.


Been up once already. DH's snoring woke me up about five this morning. Went back to bed about 7:30. I might actually stay awake all day now.

how sweet, JJ.:) but don't worry about the Pepper, nobody else does.:(

afternoon, beach (I resemble that word).:) I won't bother to tell you what I have been doing and how incredible the morning and afternoon have been here; I'm sure u are tired of that. Hope the sun is shining on you.:)

I'm not tired of it. I'm glad you're enjoying your vacation! :)

I have no idea hon, can't really tell that much difference although I do prefer the 29g due to the heating factor :)

Me too. The only difference in 3/32" and 7/64" (with the same Kanthal) is that 7/64" is a larger coil diameter to get more cotton in. They will heat up about the same. I thought 7/64" might be easier for you to work with. I use both sizes. :) I made a 7/64" with 28g for myself in an AGA-T2, just to try it, and it takes longer to heat up, so I'll stay with 29g for that. I'm thinking the 28g might be better for a Dripper with dual coils at lower Ohms, like about 1.0Ω each for 0.5Ω, but I don't have a battery I trust for that in a Mech, so I'll have to wait. :cry:

Dale,

I just realized that, if you want to try it, you can put a 28g coil in one of your Drippers and use that one with the ProVari. Then just turn the Voltage up a little from 4.1V until it works better. You may like 28g better that way. Just a thought. You might be able to take shorter puffs, but still get the same vapor this way. And if the juice can handle it without tasting burnt, take the same length puffs as usual and get more vapor. Since 28g takes longer to get as hot as 29g, you may well be able to take longer puffs and get away with it, even though the Voltage is a little higher.

Have you tried any of them on a Mech yet? That was really the whole reason we did this. You were using the ProVari at 4.1V for the juices we talked about, and a Mech starts out at ~4.2V with a fully charged battery. I usually replace the battery at ~3.8V in a Mech (you can tell by the reduced vapor and flavor). The 29g coils would be better for your Mechs.
:)

    Honestly I haven't played with any of those that there are just a few of for two reasons. One my mouth is so messed up right now there's not much point and two I wanted to get used to getting them on right first so I was using what I have the most of.

    :facepalm: I've had something on my ProVari (worked fine) but I don't remember which it was :unsure:

    And yes, I've tried them on a couple of mech's ... I really don't understand the thrill :?:

    Probably just me? :unsure:

    (P.S. sorry, I was asleep )

    Sorry the thrush is still so bad. I hope what you bought, and maybe the purple stuff, will help.

    I figured the 29g would be better all around, so that's why I didn't make many with 28g.

    And yes, I've tried them on a couple of mech's ... I really don't understand the thrill :?:

    The big thrill with a Mech is Sub-Ohms and Drippers. Those coils at 2.2Ω are far from Sub-Ohms. :laugh: Some people take Sub-Ohms down to 0.1Ω and 0.2Ω. With a Mech that has a very low (to zero) Voltage Drop, and an ultra-high-quality battery that can handle it, that's up to and even above 160 Watts! Too much for me, but I have vaped my Cinnamon Red Hots at 50W on this Passthrough Rig I made at 5V with the 0.5Ω build that was in my Dripper when I picked it up on a "Take it or Leave it" table . . .

    I don't use the Vivi Nova anymore.

    This is the build that was in the Dripper when I got it.
    Two 1.0Ω coils around a SS Mesh wrapped sleeve with silica wicking inside.
    It's small, but it's the only Dripper I have.

    I'm in a monsoon right now.:shock:

    I thought you were in Florida.


    Monsoon:

    1. A seasonal wind in southern Asia; blows from the southwest (bringing rain) in summer and from the northeast in winter
    2. Rainy season in southern Asia when the southwestern monsoon blows, bringing heavy rains


    Do they call it a Monsson there when the wind changes direction with the seasons?

    Well congratulations on your candy corn !! :laugh:

    No, not yet ... but it shipped :facepalm:
    I've fallen back on the Mycostatin, things got pretty rough on Wednesday :unsure:

    Yeah well hon, I'm not gonna start with the sub-ohming :laugh:
    You've only got one dripper?! :shock:

    I'm in a monsoon right now.:shock:
    Oh my goodness!! :ohmy:
