Speaking of rebuilding the ProTank, im finally starting to get the itch, and have about 8 heads laying around for rebuilding purposes. Where do ya'll get the kathal wire from? Also whats the recommended size, 32? I heard about cotton wicks as well and would like to give that a try.

32ga is really popular. It depends on the ohms you're going for. Wire is cheap and can be gotten at many hardware ecig vendors. Temco has large spools for a great price http://www.temcoindustrialpower.com/

PBusardo has a eVod head rebuild tutorial at www.tasteyourjuice.com which will be the same as rebuilding a ProTank head.

Yeah I've seen it, and he actually pretty recently made one specifically for the Protank, but I know the process for both is identical since the heads are pretty much the same. Will look into temco and give it a shot.

Also not really sure as far as what im going for OHM wise, but with my growing experience I tend to like the 1.8ohm heads on the protank more then the 2.5 it came with, so will be going for the lower end.

Cool, I'll check out his ProTank vid, even though I don't have one. I saw an even better eVod tutorial but forget where.

Temco you can order from their site and they also sell on ebay. I ordered 100ft of 31ga from their ebay listing for only $8, and that included shipping. That's enough to last me years.

Bronze,

Nothing at all is wrong with you. You simply don't care for any Ahlusion juices you've tried, which is perfectly OK.

You're right Bill. I was just playing off Scarfy's earlier comment. :)

While I did not get into any of the 12 A+'s I tried (the Pear Black Tea wasn't too bad), I've definitely had worse. I still recommend A+ to noobs. It's too popular not for people to at least try. Something can be said about popular vendors. They became popular for a reason.

Just saw this.

When I went to a tobacco shop a few months ago, amongst the quality cigars, pipe tobacco, and Nat Sherman smokes; and various tobacco paraphenalia (rollers, cigar cutters, humidors, wooden pipes, etc) it felt wonderful. I've never smoked a pipe and rarely smoke cigars, but it felt like a very natural place to be.

If I was to walk into a nice vape shop, I fear I may never leave. If they let you sample juices and play with the toys, I would only leave by force.

I've only been to GLV and Ahlusion. I went to Pink Spot, but I didn't go in.

Jay at GLV is cool. He let me try his own personal GLV mini and sample Mister e-Liquid juices. On my first visit to GLV (back in the day) was when I first tried Ms.Ts' Bakery juices (Jay sells MsT's and Mister eLiquid lines).

I kinda wish I had gone into Pink Spot, but I feared spending too much money. It looked awesome though.

I really want to go to GeJ and QnJ if I can.

Bout five hours from where you live. Swing by Greektown and grab yourself one of those thick strawberry cheesecakes. :)

I'd personally like to go to Goode's and Ahl's. Also, I hear Las Vegas has a bunch of awesome vape shops. Here in Fargo, there is no vape shops. If there was, no vaping or sampling will be allowed, since vaping falls in the smoking ban (no indoors, no 20 ft from a building).

As I'm walking the streets of downtown Fargo, vaping makes me an outlaw. I need to get a cowboy hat and some spurs. I kind of want to get the $50 ticket; I'd contact CASAA to see if they would help me fight it in court.

I knew you were joking. I just couldn't resist another chance to lobby for two of my Cardinal Rules of Vaping: 1. As vapers, the only person we have to please is ourselves, and 2. Other people's opinions are worth exactly what we pay for them, and not one cent more. LOL.

You'd be a star if you get ticketed.

Rob has been telling me how many vape stores he has access to in California and it just blows my mind!

VapeRite has a store in Atlanta, and Beeliquid has a "Vapers' lounge" in NM.

I think I will compile a list of NET vendors with B&Ms or at least some type of visit-able facility.

If you find or know of one in NYC, please post it. I'll be there for a week in July, and I'm paranoid about running out of juice.
