The way I see it everything on your fork will do 1 of 2 things....help you or hurt you....My problem....I learned the secrets of Atkins....I read everything he wrote....I can lose weight if I want......Knowing I could lose it I didn't mind adding 30lbs over the winter....I'm gonna try and hit January 1st below 180lbs....I don't exercise due to the fact I work to hard to have anything left for exercise....Made 2 gallons of my BBQ sauce today and gonna try and cook on the grill tomorrow before the temperature takes a dive Saturday....I usually cook enough at one time to last several days....Life is a struggle....

I got the 3 Freemax tanks rolling....They're the resin tanks as metal tips are a NO GO here...At first the Freemax looked huge because it's HUGE!!! Running dual coils in 2 and a single coil in the third....Cinnamon Roll on the single coil and so far so good....I don't see the big flavor bump with the dual coil that many posted about...The single coil leaves more room for juice as well and I like that....So far I like them and it's for sure a big improvement on the Big Baby Beasts....

Mass produced in China coils are what they are....Not all are equal...The last pack of Smoke Big Baby Beasts was no good...I got great run time from previous packs....Loaded all three Big Babies with fresh coils last week and all three were burnt after a couple of tanks...2 dual coils in the Freemax tanks and one outperforms the other...Not burnt but better flavor from one...The one with lesser flavor pops and cracks when fired and is at less watts....go figure....the single coiled Freemax is doing fine and has good flavor...Got a couple packs of duals and a pack of singles so maybe a decision on what to reorder can be made when the time comes....The Freemax Mesh pro is great for plug and play convenience...The big time flavor everyone raves about???? Well...The Profile/Pulse combo is another World all together....

With the temps diving tonight I decided it best to get a tank of propane yesterday...100lbs of fuel....Tanks are not so bad empty but a bear when full....Filling station requires tanks upright and strapped or they won't fill....You gotta get it in the bed of the truck then stand it up and strap it down...I prefer laying it down on my rubber mat and blocking it off with wood....that worked for years....My left wrist got gimpy last evening and I suspect that tank is the culprit....I've been patrolling the Craig's for a big tank that I own but so far that hasn't worked out...Heading out here in a few to scope out a Lazy Boy recliner....Beige leather and a deal to boot...Leather on my current chair has seen way better days....Gotta hit a birthday party for my Aunt this evening and then a family reunion tomorrow....Diet gone straight to Hell.....I'll have a few pounds to shed in the coming weeks...

Yup, it’s cold here too! I’m glad I wished you both happy birthday on fb bc once again my last post was the last post I’ve been seeing for a bit now until just tonight.
I hope you both had nice ones!

I run two resin Fireluke mesh tanks; one on a drag the other on a minikin 2...love them! I have a resin pro that I have not tried/bought used from a friend.
The newest freemax is the one that I sold to coworker. He’s diggin it, but doesn’t like the single coil (says it’s a Tracy coil, lol...little smartsss), the dual is what he likes. He was right though, I did like the single, but wanted it for my hexohms.
Truly something for everyone in this industry!

That whole stand the tank up and strap it down is the policy of the seller...IMO it's dangerous and I let them know that....I've been planning on welding up a hitch hauler for the tanks....Truth be told I'm dang tired of hustling those tanks to be filled....never ever does a tank need to be changed in fair weather either....mostly they run out in the middle of the night when it's raining/snowing cold as Hades...Still it's economical and I'm cheap when it comes too utilities....

The recliner was new and in a thrift store....Up around the Greensboro area there are many stores that sell factory direct....NC was once the furniture capital....Guessing China is now...Being the Lazy Boy was new I'm betting there's an outlet up around Greensboro somewhere....Cuzzo manages a mattress factory up there and I'm gonna ask him if he knows anywhere selling recliners....The one I have is a big man recliner and the one I saw today was smaller so I passed....

Thank you all for the Birthday wishes :wub:

Tracy, I finally found my Crown 3 coils. Been vaping on it since last night, and I honestly don't have a clue why I decided I didn't like it!

Yesssssss!!! I love my crown 3s!!!! <3 No need to empty the juice for coil changes either. Just plug and puff! ;)

Thank you Tracy and J5 :wub:

I don't empty the juice from any of my Crowns to replace the coils. After a bit more than 24 hours with the C3, I've discovered that I have to run it a good 10-15w higher than the OC and C2 to get that great flavor...and that's playing hell with my chest. It's feeling like it did when I first changed over from MTL to direct lung vaping. I'm remembering now that higher watts+more juice+shorter batt life+tight chest were the reasons I set the C3 aside when I got it. I'll revisit it off and on while it sits here on my desk, I expect the tight chest has as much to do with bagging mulched leaves yesterday as it does the C3.
