Rainy, dreary couple of days in store for us. I'm glad I only have to walk across the street to vote

Glad you got a good long face time with Kia, Wharf! Happier still to hear she's coming home in Jan

Good morning boys n girls.

Capella super sweet....I like no more than 2 or 3 DROPS per 30 ml. Ymmv

 

[FranC]

I never use any sweetener in my mixes.

 

[Bovinia]

Aww dang!! Anyone hear anything about the Crown 4? Stainless and mesh coils...hmmmm. Tempted to say Happy Birfday to me

$27.82 Authentic Uwell Crown 4 IV Sub Ohm Tank Clearomizer - 5/6ml / 0.2/0.4ohm / stainless steel + glass / 28mm diameter at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I never use any sweetener in my mixes.

Me either, Fran. I use 75% VG so that's all the sweetness I have ever needed.

I've seen the Crown 4...It looks great...That is the extent of my knowledge on it...Mesh coils are the way to go IMO....Once you see one dry fire you will know why....

You gotta be easy with the Super Sweet....I find at low levels it makes the other flavors stand out just a bit...I don't use it in all my mixes though....Dropped 2 drips in 30 MLs of Snake Oil that was mixed without it...Gonna add it in next go....Probably 1 ML in 480MLs....You can always add more but you can't get it out....

I've looked hard at mods lately....Mostly wanna stick with a single 20700/21700....I saw a bunch of odd shaped Mods....Do these designers not take ergonomics into account at all????? Curve the edges and use a composite material PLEASE!!! The Pulse is 2X the size of the Oceanus but the Oceanus is 2X the weight....Just saying...

Hi Y'all.

 

[FranC]

Hiya,5c

 

[Bovinia]

I'll definitely be waiting for some solid reviews on the Crown 4 and the mesh coils before jumping on it. These days I can't afford to add anything to the "shouldn't have wasted my money" stash. I have 2 Crown 3s in that stash.

Went to vote, had scripts to pick up, and grocery store run, and still got here almost the same time I usually do. Woke up wicked early this morning so I figured I may as well get some tasks knocked off my list. I was happy to hear the poll workers excitedly talking about the far above average voter turn out so far this morning

Had a Chase breakdown moment last night...this grief sheet is a fickle bass turd.

 

[5cardstud]

Mornin Fran.
Bo what's wrong with the Crown 3s that you don't like?

 

[FranC]

Good afternoon,Bov Sorry about the bad moments

 

[Bovinia]

Thanks Fran...it'll get better, just takes time

Bo what's wrong with the Crown 3s that you don't like?

tell the truth, I don't remember I'll dig one out and try rerun in the C3. I'm thinking I wasn't getting the great flavor everyone else seemed to be bragging about.

Every time I leave this thread I go too "new posts" and usually scan the first five pages...Reading up on the Freemax I saw where a UWell tank called a Nuncanchu or something similar had good reviews for flavor...

I've seen it stated the Freemax has to much airflow....Some peeps are shutting it down some....I always run my tanks wide open on the air and expect no issue with the Freemax....With the dual coils I've also seen posts complaining about to much vapor...Not really sure that will be an issue here either....Pretty sure the Freemax single coil that's in the kit and airflow cut down a bit will calm this beast down should need be....I plan on trying out a single coil set up right off the bat....Reading all those posts has indicated the Horizon Falcon or the Freemax is the way to go for drop in coils....YMMV and there's not a lot of talk about the Profile and I know from personal experience it's the Mack Daddy......

Cuzzo Greg better known as GMoney is in the hospital....Diabetic and had some foot blister that got mad infected...They cut some foot off and while doing so determined he hasn't enough blood flow too the foot....Gonna cut his leg and put in some new pipes today....Now I'm off to scan those first five pages for info...

 

[908Tracy]

I know I will have to try a crown 4 when I get them in. The only one I avoided was the 2. I love my 3’s Bov, definitely try them again!

Ladies and gents.....I have just about hit my goal weight!!! I was .2 from it this morning. Happy dance!!! July 16th until now...just about 30 pounds GONE. woo hoo!!!!

I hope you all are doing well.
Huggerzzzzz

 

[5cardstud]

Way to go Tracy. I could stand a weight reduction myself.

 

[908Tracy]

Thanks 5c! I feel so much better, and that’s worth all the sugar, bread, pasta, and potatoes in the world.

Jocelyn has joined me on this journey (5 or 6 weeks ago) and she is doing fantastic as well!

I got a new kindle paper white today. My older one (gen 2) stopped being supported. It was 9 years old so I shouldn’t complain.(but you bet I did!) I hardly used it then a few weeks ago I dug it out and nada.

 

[El Dee]

I've got my weight right as well...175lbs. Just a little slip and bam...Easier to add than subtract....

Hoping to be filling a Freemax here about lunch....

Mom's house had a place where the vinyl siding was getting burnt....I pulled the siding off and there was nothing but old asbestos siding underneath....garage door had two carriage lights on either side with cut/beveled and polished glass....figuring the reflection from them was the culprit I changed them out to a set with frosted glass....thought that solved it and it happened again....Yesterday I added frosted tint with a leaf pattern to the garage door windows....If that doesn't fix the issue I guess I'll paint the garage door windows...Looks to me this only happens a couple of days per year.....right around sunrise....

 

[Bovinia]

Dee, I have the Uwell Nunchaku tube mod and tank kit and I do love it. The coils last forever with my strawberry cheesecake juice. I may pick up another tank to run on one of my other mods.

I've seen tons of complaints about the Crown 2, but I have been running mine since they first came out with nary a problem or complaint. It has never seen any juice other than my cinnamon roll, and runs all day every day since day one.

Searched high and low for my Crown 3 coils yesterday and can't find them anywhere. I know I received them because I ordered them with the tank from FT when the 3 first came out. The only thing I can think of is that I was so unimpressed that I gave the coils to someone at my old vape shop hangout.

Weight...Tracy and Dee, congrats!! I think I have found the weight you two have lost. I have plenty of excuses (it's been a really tough year dealing with the move, the house hunt, Chase) but truth is I fell off the wagon. I stopped power walking when the weather got too hot, and my addictions of choice are comfort food and sleep. My highest weight before my T2D dx was 198. I was down to 160 and doing great until I let the stress of the move break me down. I'm back up to 176 and not happy with that at all. I've got to get back to the mindset that I am worth taking care of my own body

Dee, I'm sorry to hear of your cuz's problems, and hope his surgery goes well.

 

[5cardstud]

Afternoon folks. I'm ashamed to tell my weight. My problem isn't sugar, bread, etc. It's not enough exercise.

 

[908Tracy]

Bov, completely understood. It’s been a heckuva rollercoaster year for you! The good news is, you know exactly how to do it now...when you’re ready gf!

5c, not one second of exercise other than what I do to get around each day. None! I cannot believe how easy this way of eating has been for me, and I’d have done it a lot sooner had I known then what I know now.

Took a power nap earlier and somehow lost two hours! :O I don’t do that often, but it felt great!
