Fun! I'm glad the weather is so nice for you guys right now. It must be great to be able to be outside after the heat of last summer! It's 59 and overcast here, which is pretty perfect for me right now. I need to go back to town and finish my shopping. It was just way too stormy yesterday when I tried.

Just walked in from splitting half my wood pile, after several hours of swinging a 4.5 pound maul, and getting the front porch ready for wood. My knees ache like thunder, and im pooped. I am gonna sleep good tonight

Well I finally dun it. Rebuilt one of the iCare coils with 1.5 ohm nr-r-nr FT coil and JOC. Couldn't let @wvducklady beat me to it! :lol:Wasn't nearly as difficult as I expected even with my shaky hands (driver stress NOT age;)).

I'm really quite happy with it. Now, with the same airflow setting as the factory coil the vapor does come up a tad short. I had been doing 2 airholes open and a gentle MTL with original coils. With this coil I've removed the afc and I'm doing a long gentle DTL. Perfect *for me*. All the vapor I'll ever need and that all important snappy sizzle is still there.

Flavor? I vape a near flavorless concoction and with the factory coil it might just as well have been flavorless (and I was fine with that). With the JOC I'm actually getting a hint of flavor again. Who knows, if we can get rayon to work we may actually get some good flavor out of these things?

I'm pleased with what I got from my first attempt with rebuilding these but I think I'm still gonna order some straight 1.3 ohm wires from FT for the heck of it.:thumbs:

Spent the day traipsing around New York Comic Con. It was way more crowded than the last time we went three years ago. The downside to going on Sunday is that there is not much going on. Yesterday Clark Gregg, Chloe Bennett, and Gabriel Luna (Ghost Rider) was walking around the convention hall surprising people.

We were supposed to have Vape Summit this weekend, but they cancelled. They never actually notified anyone they were canceling, but calls to the convention center were not exactly civil. Looks like there are some impending lawsuits after Vegas!

That's awesome, Foggy! I'm glad you were able to rebuild the iCare coil. Ducky will be really happy to know this, I'm sure! :)

Sounds like lots of fun, even though you missed the celebrity surprises. That's cool they showed up to surprise people, but a bummer that it was yesterday.
