Older Folks and Vaping Back Porch - Part Four

[Rat2chat2]

G O O D M O R N I N G family.

Did not sleep well again last night and I have a headache. . .

Could be the stress.

Could be the weather.

Could be laughing so much in Hangouts.

Could be to much computer.

Could be paying bills.

Could be talking on the phone so long.

Could be dirty glasses or outdated prescription.

Could be taking pictures.

Could be I miss my toe ring.

Could be thinking too much.

Is that even possible?

But I'm pretty damn sure it is. .

.
Y'all have a great day and

Good morning, Porchers. Getting ready to have my picture taken for our Church directory. It feels strange doing it by myself.

Church directories are great resources. I always forget names. Sad to see people alone, whether through death or divorce. Happy to see those who are happily single, though.

If my PV shows "atomizer short" when I hit the fire button that means buy a replacement atty...........right?!

Is it an atty w/ replaceable 'coil heads'? Could just be the coil and not the whole atty.

Oh my, that's my Ginger (now awaitin' on Rainbow Bridge) on the right... <soulful sigh...>

She would chew every branch on the ground into micro-mulch outside. Never had to have her teeth cleaned!

The Golden is Sara. The Boy Dog on the left is the one that has chewed the wisteria into a stump.

Means that whatever the PV "sees" on top is too low a resistance for the PV. Exactly what's going on depends.... if rebuildable, maybe just built too low. Or may be you tightened the topper too much, crushing down the connection insulator.

In general, when coils go bad, they usually go open, not shorted. (Note - usually!)

My wife was also in the Navy. She was our war hero! She was in country during Desert Storm.

Great story and cherished memories!

You'll read anything as long as it is about sex ...

はい、します Hai, shimasu - Yes, I do!

I am getting more comfortable being single. There are things I miss, however, I say a prayer and smile. I know I am not alone.

Sounds like a good excuse to buy a new topper.

I neglected to say that I dropped it on a tile floor so I don't think it's the coil per se. I tried it on an Eleaf and a Provari and the result was basically the same. It's a GS Air TC.

hehehe I can take my whacks too, when it's all in good fun!

definitely all in good fun!!!!

Have the same problem with 2 iclear 30 tanks. Hit the floor... dead. No clue why.

Yep.........can't count on modern technology to last any time at all.

Might try just reseating the coil first; could have been knocked loose. That has happened to me. Reseating the coil fixed the problem. If not new coil. The topper itself should be OK if the tank didn't crack or something.

ummm? You're not using the .15Ω Nickel coils w/ that tank on a Provari are you? That Ω is too low for the Provari.

Tried that as well. Reason I'm asking is that it is the TC technology and since I'm not that familiar with it I thought there might be a reason for failure other than dropping it. It's no great loss for me since I am a vaper for almost five years now and don't have mosquitos in the house anymore (wait......what?).

P3 should fire it.........yes/no?

 

[MikeE3]

The P3 won't fire a .15Ω coil .... too low res. The Nickel TC coils/heads are only meant to be used with a TC mod. The P3 isn't one of them. Your eLeaf might be, for example the iStick TC40. The 20, 30 and 50 are not TC mods.

got me a new toy yesterday and im having much fun with it

Going to bed too early, for me, is as bad as going to bed too late........

Seems that way to me too. Went to bed quite early yesterday and as you can see from my middle of the night postings had a period of no sleep in the middle. However I did sleep till 10am to make up for it.

PBusardo just posted a video on making TC coils for the Kayfun. Haven't watched it yet but will reconnoiter and report.
