Oh Tracy!! You truly are the best Mom in the world, and raised the finest young ladies! Poor Joc must have been devastated, but like you say, she has worked hard and WILL pass that test :wub:

I was thinking exactly the same thing about Tracy. You must have read my mind Bov.

My girl buddy Tracy has her head on straight!!!

Yes she does TT, and so do her beautiful daughters!

Interesting Pokey, about your coffee juice. I pulled the Cinnamon Roll out with a syringe (cuz why be wasteful) and replaced the juice with my Tres Leches/Caramel Cream concoction. Now we're talkin!! Beautiful flavor and vapor sitting at 14w, air wide open, and a traditional drip tip. We've had that wide bore conversation before ;)

The main reason I have disliked almost every tank evolution after the carto tank is because I like a warm vape. The iClears, Protanks, bottom coils I could not get a satisfyingly warm vape until the Nautilus. Now this KSM...that's a warm vape!! I eat my custards and desserts warm...I want to vape 'em warm, and this certainly delivers!

Building coils...we'll see, but atm I'm giving this .5 ooc head the Divine Bovine hooves up :thumb:

We have indeed had that wide-bore conversation before...and my opinion remains the same ;)

So very glad that the TLCC is vaping beautifully for you! And look at you with the air wide-open!! Who'd a thunk it??
Hooves Up!!

Awww, your kind old man was a day brightener, for sure. Little does he know how he's brightened so many others' with his sweet story and simple wisdom :)

I asked the gent I was chatting with in the grocery store what he thought was the most important thing he'd learned in life...his answer was simple and perfect. His answer was love :wub:
Yes, Bov, it's all about love. The love of family, friends and that special someone. Too many people think that wealth and power are the most important things in life and spend their lives seeking those goals and hurting others in the process. Silly people, little do they realize that love is the answer and if only they would look, they would see it. But they put on blinders and keep seeking money and power. :(

908 I used a short glass and made a Dawn bubble bath for the KSM....Dis-assemble and dunk for a bit followed with a scalding rinse....I had to wipe off the coil with a little rubbing alcohol as there was oil on it as well....Sure wish JK woulda' passed....Certain she will next time...Tell her I said log it as a character building experience and roll on!!!!

Now I forgot what I had to say......

I pulled a juice switcharoo as well....Running the Haze in the KSM...All still good but the VC was probably a little high on the flavor percentage...Now my KayFun is like sucking a watermelon through a straw.

Wharf I wrote down the specifics on the 528 Custom....Gonna check it out tonight...

I apologize to all of you! Not sure if it's my phone or ECF but when I posted my second post about still being proud of her, and the questions about the KSM, there were no other replies since my posting the initial one about Jocelyn's test! I heard nothing but crickets in here, I swear. Lol I thought it odd, but figured you all were out having fun somewhere tonight or blowing big clouds with all of our new toys of late! :)

Thank you so much Bov and TT for all your kind words about my daughters, and my mothering skills to boot! I have a very fine example in my own mother. :)

Thanks so much ElDee for all of the helpful info, as always! I will definitely give JK your advice. :)

I was wondering about juices. Specifically whether or not I will like my favorite strawberry in the KSM or not. Also, how is the consumption of juice? Noticing a significant increase? That will make me vamp up the DIYS for sure.
Most everyone at work Vapes 3mg now bc they either use the Subtank, or drippers.
I will look for your replies in the am though bc I've had a long day and am tired. It's passed my bedtime!
Good night all!! Zzzzzz

TT, Carrot does have an Egrip or two. I was thinking that you got one when we got ours but, like I said, you have too many to keep up with ;)

Great advice to your daughter, Tracy. Anything worth trying is worth trying again. I know that had to be disappointing to be so very close though.

All I did with my full sized Subtank was soak it in dawn, rinse it out, fill and vape. I actually still like my Atlantis but am a little leary of using them without using the RBA deck from some of the stuff that I read about the prebuilts.

I did forewarn about lowering the nic with the KSM. I found out the hard way with my Atlantis.

This is my latest lowering of nic LOL! I was vaping 10mg, and had my 8mg steeping / waiting to go into use. I have 120ml of 8mg mixed :blink:

Tracy, I did the same wash and rinse of just the tank, and don't forget to prime the head!! Since you are used to building your own, I doubt that you would forget, but I just wanted to toss that out there.

Only thing I can compare on the juice consumption is the Nauty, and yes it seems to be a tad thirstier, but I expected that to be the case.

Pokey, the wide open air is certainly different for me, but I wanted the full experience before rejecting the idea outright. And guess what? I'm liking it! I think I never cared for an airy draw because the warmth and flavor were not as good with other tanks. Like Dee said, switching over to my tanked Fusion or Nauty now is like sucking a watermelon threw a straw. The KSM is a totally different style of vaping, but change is good :)

Yep Jerry, my elderly gent encounter was profound enough that I am still absorbing it. He was referring to love in every way, not just romantic or familial love. He actually asked me first what I thought the most important thing in life was, and I said kindness, to which he said, "There is no kindness without love." It was like having a conversation with the Dalai Lama!

Dangitt!!!!! Another freezing rain and ice advisory for tomorrow...SOAMFB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The KSM is a little juice hogish...Lots of vapor require lots of juice and air....

Yeah....Lowered nic would be a good idea...

Went by my friend's shop to show him the Stick/KSM....He had purchased a Stick 30 and a Kanger Sub Nano from a local B&M !!! He's one of my converts....then he asked how much was it...He didn't like my reply.....Shop around Holmes....shop around....or.....Just ask Salem

Ha, ha! So, you sent him to me, did you? I will be on the lookout for a noob with an i30 and a Nano :laugh: I have actually heard some folks say that they like the nano best. I am a lazy vaper. The less times that I have to refill my tank, the better that I like it.

That darn freezing rain is expected here and took me by surprise too :glare: Supposed to start tonight and go right through tomorrow. Glad that I am able to stay at home until Monday.

Note for Bov, I bet that you know all about these but, just in case. I use the crock pot a good bit and LOVE those crock pot liners. makes clean up breeze!

So strange because they have been out of stock many times and then have them again the next day. But, they do have a few colors in stock.

Use code forum and select free shipping. Total shipped is $40.80

Yeah Dee, I have a hard time going back to my KF, and I LOVED that thing..... hence the 528, I'll let you know what I think Monday night.


I'm sorry to hear about Joc Tracy... It's such a helpless feeling when your child is going thru that emotional pain, the end of the world feeling.

:-x:-x:-x I wrote an essay bout DD and friddin' ECF kicked me out and auto save saved one sentence...... :censored:


I'll get back to it another time :grr:

Good morning all you freshly washed, pretty young faces!

I might have to give in and try one of those KSM's. The only thing holding me back is that I don't want to like something better than my Nautilus and Delta's. I keep promising myself that I'm going to quit buying vaping gear. Of course, I always know its probably a goal that will never happen but still its nice to think that I have enough will power to quit buying.

But I don't.

To me, the most amazing thing is that my sweetie pie Miss Salem is sub-ohming. I never thought I'd see the day.

Ha, doing my morning back reading here got me to thinking about my own dear old mommy. I'm just glad that she had me around the house. If she hadn't had me to do all that whipping on the poor woman would have never had any hobby at all. And of course, my pleas of "I didn't do it" always fell on deaf ears.

Looking back ...... it still makes me wonder how she knew that I really did do it.

Women are amazing things and even at my advanced age I still have never figured them out.

Good morning Fran and Texas T. Don't feel bad about not being able to figure out women. I don't think we're supposed to. Just give them space, love them and enjoy their company. I can't solve rubicks cubes either. Sunday morning. Got up and cooked my traditional breakfast then woke my Bride up. Time to get ready for Church. Still cloudy and rainy but nice and warm. Laterz

Hiya Wuzz. Yeah, I'm going churching this morning too. Gotta go find out what all is going on up in town.

I just hope I have the strength to fight off all of those Q-Tips that always want to sit beside me.

My little church is tiny and out in the woods away from town, but I like it because they don't have a choir, just locals who can pick on a guitar and sing the real old church songs. The music is pretty special. If you like the old songs.

We're a small Church too but we do have a Choir. Matter of fact I sing bass in it lol. We mostly sing the old stuff.

Hey, I do have some vape mail coming tomorrow!!

The two 50w iSticks will be here plus the back up Vapor Shark rDNA30 I ordered.

I think I said the other day that I had a couple 40watt iSticks .... that was a typo. Their 30Watt.

The original 20 Watt iSticks I got back last November (I think it was...) are still going strong. I like those iSticks!
