Avista got our power going around 7:30, Inland power and light had an estimate of 10:00 PM in our area.
Had just long enough to unravel all the extension cords and get the generator running, lol. I left the Generator setup as a deterrent tonight, because sure as heck if I put it away another tree will fall!
I've got a back feed setup up in Virginia just in case and since I did it the power hasn't gone off for more that 45 minutes. Set it up 3 years ago. Using an interlock breaker between main and indeed breaker to prevent stupidity (and fried linemen).

Oh that is nice! Im wondering if the YIHI is going to come down much in price anytime soon, Im hoping to get a TC mod about the time I head back to work (end of Feb).
Might snag just the board when they get them in stock. I have all the rest of the parts.

Never was a big Elvis or Beatles fan, but enjoyed the Kinks, the animals...
I like Elvis. My mother had a couple of his earlier albums I used to listen to. When I saw him in the white jumpsuit, not so much.

I had a couple of Beatles albums (including Sgt. Pepper), but I was a little young for them too.

My early teen years was with The Doors. Later teens was Aerosmith. Then the SHTF and disco came out and the world ended.

Well theres no real comparison there. The YiHi is way more accurate but this gives you just as good a vape after you get the hang of these jtech boards. That YiHi is really reliable not sure about this but for the money you can get a really good tc vape with this one. Don't know how long it will last but it's built really solid. Just don't charge it with the USB like they say you can. When they get done upgrading I think it will be just fine and you can't beat the battery life but you really need 6 new 18650's and keeps them married up so you have 2 sets. But 2 full days is pretty good.
Alright you two. Take that vape related talk to the front porch! :lol:;)

Yeah 44.00 sounds good, lol. I can gift that 100w istick to my cousin and then on with the threesomes, lol.
The 62.00 for that sx350 chip is great IMO but the billet box and hardware probably isn’t worth the balance and besides I like the shape of that mod you have there better.
By the time Im ready for that yihi chip hopefully it will have come down a bit in price, thanks buddy!
The YiHi SX350 hasn't come down since I built my box mod a year and a half ago so, don't hold your breath. :)

Yay!!! Now get some gas in that rv & get it set for emergencies. It's that time!
Not sure if I can get out of the driveway they got a bunch of snow piled in front of it. We have never lost our power here for over an hour till this year. Every thing in this little community is underground so it has to be a transmission line. With the weather changing like it has been who knows any more.

Never actually went to a participation showing of that. Wasn't my favorite, didn't like it enough to stay up till midnight for it. :thumb:
I went once. Well, twice since we stayed thru the next showing. I knew very little about it, but was told to bring all this stuff. I had no forewarning at all, d couldn't keep up because I didn't know what was coming next. It was hilarious, & the best time I've ever had at a movie.

BIG Beatles fan. Wish they had actually toured in the Abby Road days. That, in my not so humble opinion, is one of the best albums every produced.
Abby Road would be my favorite Beatles album. I rarely heard pop songs that I cared for, most of my favorites didnt get played over and over on the radio. When I was into Stevie Ray, hardly anyone knew who he was, I think he died before before anyone realized how talented he was. Eric Clapton was another one I followed closely, Ronnie Montrose...

You can get the 350J but they are supposed to have the 350J V2 out for modders in the next couple of weeks. Plus they are supposed to be coming out with a new mod that is supposed to be something really special in about March I think they will announce more about it in January. No idea what it will do. The 350J V2 will fit right into one of my M's.

I noticed that Inland power and light customers lost power the exact same time us Avista customers did! Figured maybe some big powerlines got heavy enough to cause trouble? No wind, no nothing, just had the lights flicker on and off 3 times then it was all over.

Absolutely. They were one of the first albums, other than kids records, that my parents got me. I was about 9 I guess.

I wish I had this place setup like that, these last three years have been ridiculous!

That one I've got is called the Reauleux they make the RX200 which I got or for a mere $120 more you can get the DNA200 but from what I hear there is no comparison with the board. Seems like a lot of failures with the DNA but I think a lot is user related.

Well love him or hate him, ya gotta admit Elvis had a voice. The man could sing.
Yes he could, I don't have a problem listening to him. I have a difficult time watching him. Him & Tom Jones. Weird. [emoji12]
