Older Folks and Vaping Back Porch - Part Four

[bigbells]

Oh well on to important stuff I want to know how bells likes his RX200 Reauleux

I finally got around to using the RX 200. I need to use a higher temperature setting with my SS coil than I use on the dna 200. I'm using 460 F and 60 watts with the dna 200 and 500 F with the RX 200. The RX 200 does not have adjustable wattage in TC mode, it always uses 200 watts.

I upgraded the RX 200 software but if that had any effect on how the mod handles SS I didn't really notice. The display screen of the dna 200 has bigger numbers and icons than the RX 200.

The additional programming that's possible with the DNA 200 gives me what I think is better performance, but there is not a huge difference. I programmed the DNA 200 for the exact diameter of the wire I'm using, which at 0.39 mm is a little smaller than true 26 gauge. The resistance curve is specifically for SS 304, whereas the RX 200 is just "SS".

My Dad was a RR man, whose biggest threat to us as kids was " If you don't behave....I'm going to sharpen your feet and pound you into the ground next to the rails as mile markers".....I can hear the freight trains whistle from here ....

to those who may have read my last post on the front porch....I meant precisely what I said.

Sarcasm is used too frequently, masquerading as humor, for what an individual really intended to say all along.....but then can claim..."it was only a joke". Insulting people or putting them down is not amusing, it's cruel. And for what it's worth......I could never stand Don Rickles for that very reason.

good morning and a happy TGIF porch

This message caused panic across the business world yesterday because Microsoft didn't feel that they needed to brand it. So everyone thought that their PCs had been hacked.

Great news indeed!

What's up with the mile long Facebook Christmas tree post .. ???

Someone really wants to win his Christmas Tree contest.

My Dad was a RR man, whose biggest threat to us as kids was " If you don't behave....I'm going to sharpen your feet and pound you into the ground next to the rails as mile markers".....I can hear the freight trains whistle from here ....

Wow! now that was a serious threat!

Hey @bigbells ... I've been seeing clips on the news channels about overstock dot com removing all drones/helo's from their website 'cause they're not safe (can randomly explode) and now this morning that airlines will no longer allow them in checked baggafe or carry on bags. I suppose just too many cheap Chinese products coming to market causing a rash of incidents.

 

[DavidOck]

Drones, Mike? Story I saw was about the "hover boards" going up in flames, and pointed to inferior lithium batteries as the probably cause...

 

[clnire]

I saw stories about hover boards too, nothing about drones...

 

[Debadoo]

same here, but it confused me, cuz I coulda sworn a couple weeks ago I saw a story about that and thought they'd said they didn't really have hover boards. that was still just Back to the future fantasy, but that they were workin on it.

 

[DavidOck]

Well, yeah, they don't really hover, have two wheels and operate similar to the Segway devices.

 

[Flowersoul]

Good Friday morning, Porchers!

 

[bigbells]

Non-hovering hoverboards. Hmm. Had to look it up because I hadn't ever seen or heard of one.

Lexus had a couple of actual, sort of, but completely impractical hoverboards made for a commercial: http://www.theverge.com/2015/8/4/9091951/lexus-hoverboard-video

 

[Debadoo]

Mornin Gracie!

Non-hovering hoverboards.

that's pretty much what I just said to Scott in the h/o!

 

[bigbells]

Another unique way of getting around, no batteries required but I think an ambulance on call would be a good idea.

Ok I said this in hangout last night but for those that were interested that were not there. The MyPillow report.

We have now slept on them 2 nights in a row. No funny smell. No noise. Hubby woke up without a stiff neck for the first time in years both days. I have now managed 5-6 consecutive hours of sleep 2 nights in a row. That NEVER happens for me so I am thrilled.

If anyone is thinking about getting them order them in batches. There is a code (either from the TV commercial or google and find one) that is basically buy 1 get one free. So get 2. When they arrive you will get another code and a $10 off card (2 really since you got 2 pillows). Use those on the next set. These things are not cheap so every little bit helps.

They are indeed machine washable and dryable. They also have a 10 year warantee.

I watched a documentary about the guy that invented the Sedgeway, man what a genius. He also invented a home dialysis machine that is small an faily portable. He also invented a machine that takes any water no matter how contaminated and makes it into clean medical grade water. Fairly small. He tried to get distribution with big outfits like the UN and many others that could help get these to villages where most of the diseases were from water. Finally the only one that would help was Coca Cola.
