Thanks. I am an old pro at surviving natural disasters though. I survived ground zero with Hurricane Hugo ;)

The wind is really starting to howl though. Got some PTSD from Hugo and don't really care for that sound lol

I hear ya. I've been through my fair share of hurricanes and tornadoes. I grew up in the south part of Mississippi, and have lived in Florida, Virginia, and now Texas... I was out hunting in MS when I was a kid and had a tornado come ripping through the woods. I hid out in an old, dry creek bed underneath a fallen tree. When I came out, there was a path cut through the woods about a hundred yards away from me. I completely understand your PTSD from the sounds. ;)

Experiencing the outer bands of Hermine for a couple of hours now....Trust this....it's raining like a sumbeech...The wind has had it's moments....The center of circulation should be here or nearby at @ midnight...
Under the flash flood and tornado watch atm and there's the old tropical storm warning........Some deal e ohh called Tor-Con has us at a 5 on a 1~10 scale of probability.....Long as there are no tornadoes and the creek stays somewhere near the banks everything should be fine....Just life down East in NC....Surf's Up !!!!!!!!

@salemgold Here's another link that gives better specs on that tank. Looks like it is pyrex glass instead of PC like the tank that I have. Vapmod X-Tank 4.0
From a review, it sounds like they've had a couple releases, poly vs Pyrex, different airflow. Not sure what the ecig version is, though 10ml sounds sweet to me :)

Now that I may think about. I can't get any PC tanks ever because I forget which ones they are and wind up filling them with the "bad for PC" stuffs....I've lost 3 tanks that way so far :blush:

Good point. Probably best to do a bit of research to figure out what's what. If I can ever get a build to work in the RBA head for my M1 tank, I think I'll be good... so far, I've had no luck, but I've only tried 2-3 times.

Like Mark said, you may have to do a bit of research. Looks like Element is out of stock on the ones I found, but somebody may have them available with the pyrex somewhere. I'll just have to remember to be careful about what I put into my M1. :p

I always research first lol...I'm a research queen! The worst and last episode I ever had with a PC tank was one of the Kanger Evods way back when...I had it filled up with Banana Foster and it was in my purse. It totally cracked the tank and flooded all over my purse. After that I was done with the PC tanks because I wound up having to throw that purse away because it smelled like rotten bananas after trying to clean it--and it was one of my favorite purses :sneaky: That evod though led me to finally try the stm tanks...and they still remain one of my 3 favorite tanks.

Hahahaha! I'm more of a "Hey! That's SHINY!! I must haz it!" kinda guy! :lol: I usually don't research anything, I just get it and then figure out how to deal with it... kinda bitin' me on the .... with the M1 tank, but I'll get it figured out eventually. I'm stubborn like that. :p

I'm the opposite i'll research so long that new stuff comes out to reseach before i make a decision. Just ask everyone else here. I just got into TC a few months ago.

A tornado was my other major natural disaster. NE Ohio as a child. Then, the tornadoes hit us before Hugo even made landfall. I am not fond of any of it. ;)

My son, being the huge Tigers fan that he is, drove dead smack through the middle of this one today. Went from Charleston, SC to Auburn, GA for a Clemson game. He said it wasn't too bad. Much like driving on a high bridge in Charleston during windy conditions.

Center of circulation is near Myrtle Beach atm...My thinking says the roughest part of Hermine is here or at least very near....and trust it's raising Hell out there....The power has flickered several times....the rain is pounding and the wind is definitely making it's presence known....Couple of tornadoes off shore near Atlantic Beach and that is North of my location....hoping that threat has passed....Trust it's been a long day but so far everything is holding up well....There will be no rest for the wicked until it calms down.....
