So I gave away a bunch of stuffs today, some mech mods, some clearos, and a few rba/RDAs. I actually feel much better now because I I didn't use it as an excuse to get new stuffs. Maybe I'm feeling a little guilty about the spree I've been on... :blush:

When I woke up this morning, I had 31 mods, and probably close to 50 atomizers. I now have 9 mods and 15 atomizers. And my desk and workbench are MUCH clearer!

A bunch of somebodies... :) I just asked people to do something like spend an hour volunteering, or call a family member and tell them you love them, pay for the coffee for the person behind you, that kind of thing. I hope some good comes out of it, but even if it doesn't, my desk and workbench still look better. :D

That's where I was - if I hadn't used it in over 45 days it went bye-bye.

Feels good! :)

Yes, it does... :D

Got 30ml, just to try.

If you're like the rest of us, you'd best just throw it away, or send it to me. Otherwise, you too will be waiting in line every month to buy more than you can afford to buy. The question is not if you will like it, the question is whether it's 50/50 or VG heavy for you...

BTW........My first Sub Tank Mini continued to leak, so I stopped by my Vape Shop last night and even though the first tank leaked, I really really like it, so I bought a 2nd one. It seems constructed a bit differently from my first one. The bottom o-ring is slightly different and sits on the base of the actual tank as opposed to the bottom assembly. It seems to be better sealed. This one is also better finished than the first one. There were machining marks on the first one, whereas the new one is perfect. It looks way more expensive than it's nearly $40 price would suggest. Now I have an extra one I can cannibalize for parts if I need to.

I own both the original subtank (leaks through O rings), and now the subtank mini (leaks through the air-control valve). I bought new O rings, waiting for my hands to work to change them out, but I'll be darned how to fix the mini? Washed it completely and let it dry for 3 days, refilled it, and on the second refill, it started leaking once again. I'm really .... aout getting juice on my hands and all over stuff, so it really irks me. Am using my Silo today because of the leaking, but love and miss both the airflow and taste of the OOC coils.

Any ideas/thoughts?

I went for the heavy, but my order had 3 bottles it total, to hook up the lady and one of my buds too.
The price is like for a premium juice ine EU, 16,90EUR/30ml. It is pricey, but barable. Suicide Bunny, for example, costs the same or even more over here. The shipping makes it costly..
We'll see, we'll see ;)

2 year vaperversary! 27 years straight/sober in 2 weeks.

I used to drink like you HB until I didn't have a choice. Careful buddy.

I quit drinking as I had no choice. The heart doc put it to me this way, any day that I drink at all, my heart meds won't work, so he'd rather see me get falling-down drunk once a month, than have a beer or two every night. I like(d) beer... so I stopped drinking. Now that I am also on the pain meds, drinking (mixing the two) could seriously kill me, I have yet one more reason why I no longer drink.

My only 'bad' habit left is my Pepsi habit...

/sigh

Wow, you were a vaping hoarder there, weren't you. Nice of you to thin the heard some and your idea for the recipients to do some good in return was a great idea. I never bought that much stuff, but what I did own pre-Provari, I gave away. Now all I own is a P3, a P2.5 and couple toppers.

My Sub Tank Mini, never leaked from the air control valve. My first one was leaking where the glass tank met the air valve part. And that was clearly an 0-ring issue, which seems to have been redesigned a bit in my second Mini. I did find that the knurled bottom piece had come slightly loose in my first Mini and tightening it helped, so I'd try that. The other thing I'd do is take the bottom o-ring (the one that fits nicely in the bottom assembly and take it out of the bottom assembly and rest it on the glass tank upside down, then connect the bottom assembly. Let me know if either suggestion helps.......

Thanks. Gotta wait for my hands to heal a bit before trying, but will try both ideas. On the Subtank with the seal issue, sitting the 1/3 full tank in a dixie cup and letting it sit, it is slowly leaking the juice out. On the Mini, in a dixie cup, it is not actively leaking, just wet around the air'flow ring when wiped with a kleen-ex. In both cases, the problems worsen when leaving the house with them (temp changes, etc) and I end up with juice all over my hands, steering wheel, etc - really ticks me off. Such a shame as I otherwise love them both, and was getting 3 weeks or so per coil too.

Peter, the air chamber chimney in my new Mini has been redesigned from my first one. There's a noticeable round silver sleeve around the center of the chimney, which is simply not in my first mini. I suspect this was a quiet redesign, specifically designed to avoid leaks in that chamber. For me, the vape on the Mini is just miles better than anything I've used that buying a second was a no-brainer for me. And while I can't explain it, my new one vapes quieter and better than my first one.

How many "N"s are there in "intervention?" (She types looking at 8 'Varis, 4 Reos and ummm...never mind.)

Hmm - a shame, as mine is only bout 3-4 weeks old, but I may too need to buy another one - not this month to be sure!
