???? I *am* female! How did I give you the impression that I wasn't????

:facepalm: :lol: Perhaps it was the Morgan Freeman impressions you were doing last night. (Which were spectacular, by the way) :D

:wub: This just made my day.

Pardon me while I borrow this and point it at a particular piece of server hardware...




Nope - I was actually worried about diameter, not height...

No worries, that's my loaner tank :D

sorry about that, khala :blush:

:lol: No worries. It happens to me in person all the time - even though I don't remotely look like a guy. I just didn't want you to either be confused or feel bad. :)

I would also suggest the MVP 2.0. I got mine 2 weeks ago, and I love it. :)

Got my order of Shenanigans, Boom Choco Latte and sample of sticky bun yesterday. Steeped in hot tap water for 5 hours, and it's currently breathing openly in a cool dark place.....so tempted..

Picked up a Protank 2 yesterday, and bought some store made cinnamon e-juice (kinda hard to screw that one up). I can't believe I like it as much as I do!

As for breakfast, bacon wrapped bacon is my preference! :)

Hi Machael. You *should* be able to test out that Sticky Bun in another day or two (the longer you wait, the better it'll get, but it'll be quite tasty by Monday or so).

Boom Choco Latte and Shenanigans will keep you waiting significantly longer, sad to say.

On MVP, Provari and other things.

I own a stupid amount of vape gear.

I love my MVP2 even with its flaws.

I love my Provari it is a well built device, I love the ~1 year old used one I bought.

I love my Semovar, it is beautiful. It sits in it's box because I am afraid to drop it. I do vape on it, on the couch, sometimes.

I have a Tesla, and a Vamo they are tossed in a shoe box together, might use them in vapocolypse might not.

I have a Poldiac, I have 6 clone mechs.

I have some other junk.

I use the MVP and Provaris daily, I use the VV3 occasionally. I use the mechs nightly.

Some thoughts on MVP and Provari, I am in no way dissing on the MVP I like mine, 40$ well spent.

I use all my devices in VV mode, just because it is easier for me the way I vape and the way I tune the vape in. I can do the math on the fly for wattage. Exclusion is my kicked mechs of course.

The used Provari's top cap 510 threading is as good as my brand-new ones is. I use a lot of heavier RBA toppers and swap them out frequently. The guy I bought the used Provari from did as well, it was his all day unit for the year he owned it. I have owned the MVP since the first part of November, I use the same toppers on it as I do my Provaris. The MVP 510 threading is wearing noticeably. The vamo threading started to wear noticeably the first week I had it, same with Tesla.

So yes with the Provari you are paying for R&D, US made, Warranty, fast repair service if needed and above all build quality. Is the Provari for every one? No it is not, to be honest if I could not have afforded a Provari the "I can buy 7 MVPs for what a provari + batts + charger" would cost" would work fine for me. I am also not hung up on form factor. I like them all, I think they are all neat in their own way.

The only units I regret buying are Vamo, Tesla, and the SS Origin Clone. I got the Vamo and Tesla slightly used from a friend as a pair for $40 he had only used each for a few weeks and fell in love with an SVD. The SS Origin clone is a well done clone, they even directly copied the badly designed original bottom switch. Looks good with my Aqua Clone on it though :)

No, it wasn't on the vendor thread; when I looked at the site, there were no flavors between Plum and Purple Ice.

That probably just means out of stock - they often pull flavors that aren't currently available. We'd have to actually ask them to determine if they are discontinued or just out of stock.

I've looked at the Semovar a couple of times. I'm not a collector, so I really don't need any more mods, but after I break even & get a nice pipe, I might break down & get one.

No worries! I have learned that patience is in order..... :)

Thoughts appreciated for my mom/my family, guys and girls. Without going into too many gory details, I strongly suspect she is sick along the lines of what put her in the ICU for a month three years ago, but she's finding every excuse in the world not to go to the doctor (delaying for so long is what ended her up in ICU last time, but she doesn't see the logical flaw in her thinking). Can't drag her there myself, and calling 911 to force her to go would be even more scary because they're required to take her to the *nearest* hospital, which is the hospital that almost killed her last time.

So, I'm in for a long weekend of pleading, bargaining, begging, and praying.

one question please.... I hv been vaping with a same tank for 48hours... consumed around 4ml... and I just realized it tastes different than yesterday..... now it has little bit of burning and "bitter" taste...
Does it mean it's time to change the wick??
I dont want to touch the wick yet.... I watched few videos and still confused...
Should I change another head now?? ty^^

I always thought you were, but then I always thought Butch and Ralphie were grumpy old men... So yeah, I'm batting 1000% today. What do I win? :D

Aw, man, that's a tough spot, Sean. My mother is like that, she took a fall in the yard one day and went about her business. Her wrist kept bugging her and finally after 3 weeks she went in to the doc only to find out she had broken it in three places. Mind you, she's an avid gardener, a housewife, and a florist. She used her hands constantly. Talk about stubborn. And tough.

Hope things work out, man. :)

You've basically been cooking the juice for two days. I would dump it, clean the tank/atty, and put something fresh in it.

I rarely clean the wicks other than rinsing them.

Don't be intimidated by taking the head apart. It's not a big deal. THere are lots of good youtube videos that show how to do it.

Yes, for now, just change the head. (And dump your current juice, use fresh - as diggy says, it's been "cooking" in there a while now.) Save the old head. When you're ready, you can use the old one to practice changing the wick and dryburning.

Thanks Cuando, I appreciate it.
