Yummy. Two 6-in subs from Sheetz, one meatball and the other turkey, with between the two of them, salsa, yellow peppers, caramelized onions, raw onions, cucumbers, honey mustard sauce, lettuce, toasted rolls. Them folks do a nice job on their made to order subs.

Stays at 14w with a 1.5 cartomizer that is supposed to give you a good vape without messing around and only $30. Every body has a subtank out which I still think the Kanger is the best. They get it right then they change it a little. Now they have changed the air control but you can still make it do what you want. I thought it was perfect before this one is OK but different.

My KSTs are 8 months old, and my fasttech base that fits the KST seems the same as the ones I have.

What's different about the new air control?

Beautiful, Ken. You certainly have great artistic sense.

Or mexico?

196 countries total, but I wasn't able to find a complete list. With that many, there sure couldn't be more than a handful of countries who are not party to the agreement.

And speaking of party! I got some good stuff at the grocery, and have plenty of liquid refreshments.

Found the list of all 196 countries. Mexico is on there. Syria and Yemen even.

HoHoHo, very nice. We're decorating tomorrow. Took me two days to recover from the sink and decorating involves ladders. Oh boy! Pictures will follow of course. Don't worry Ken, I've go about a third of the frontage, if that, to decorate so it's not gonna hold a candle to yours.

No, was wondering what turned the generators there

Sorry. It was steam produced by coal fired boilers. Our coal here in NW New Mexico is low sulfur (relatively), but very high in ash content. That leads to some very high maintenance, by the way.

Perks of reaching 60 or being over 70 and heading towards 80!



01.Kidnappers are not interested in you.
02.In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.

03.No one expects you to run--anywhere.
04.People call at 9 pm and ask,"Did I wake you?"


05.People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

06.There is nothing left to learn the hard way.


07.Things you buy now won't wear out.

08.You can eat supper at 4 pm.

09. You can live without sex but not your glasses.


10.You get into heated arguments about pension plans.


11.You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.


12.You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into
the room...


13.You sing along with elevator music.




14.Your eyes won't get much worse.




15. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.
16.Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national
weather service..


17.Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember
them either..

18.Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.


19.You can't remember who sent you this list.


20. And you notice these are all in Big Print for your convenience.


Forward this to everyone you can remember right now!
Most importantly, never, ever, under any circumstances, take a sleeping
pill and a laxative on the same night.

ROTFLMAO! Fantastic! I needed a good chuckle cuz I am so tired. Tears of laughter, but maybe I'm just slap happy tired...

I don't think it is a measure of declining interest in vaping. There are more sites (and less rigorously moderated ones) in competition. I prefer to be here, although I do go to another just for further info on mechs and RTA's. One, in particular, started a year ago. A lot of discontents from here have populated that one.

I belong to a few other forums, including that Underground one, but I stay here. My friends are here. I use the others for research and then come home.

Beautiful, Ken. You certainly have great artistic sense.

Well what they did was on all the other series from the wide open setting you went clockwise to the next setting down and 1 more to the tightest. Now you go clockwise to the tightest setting first then the next setting up and they made the holes smaller on the middle setting. So to get the same amount of air as you did with the middle setting as before you have to turn it till only part of the wide open setting is showing and part of the smallest hole. I've been using the middle setting but now that is too tight for me so I have to improvise. But I like the dual air flow better so I got a couple.

I have 3 Nautilus tanks. 2 of them turn to the right to expose the next larger hole and one of them turns to the left. Otherwise they seem the same.

But sometimes I'm just not very observant. After reading your post I took a look to see if I could see any difference in the middle hole size between my genuine KST airflow base and my Fasttech replacement airflow base. Nope, they looked to be the same size... that's when I realized (almost missed it) that the Fasttech base only has one air inlet, whereas the KST of course has two of them, 180 degrees apart.

I wonder if I ever would have noticed that Fasttech saved a couple of pennies by only having one air inlet.

My KSTs are the Plus size. Do the smaller genuine KSTs have two air inlets like my KST Plus tanks have?

That would essentially say that they don't do what they're designed to do. They do as long as you don't cheap out. If you put something soft and sticky down them run a couple of handfuls of ice cubes down and then some hot water to make sure that everything is washed away. I've had very few problems. The don't like stringy stuff like celery and such.

Or too much soft squishy stuff all at once. The couple behind me ran a big pot of pinto beans their daughter had burned thru their disposal all at once. Packe to the insides, blocked the drainage on it & proceded to overflow the sink & move into my kitchen under the wall. They would have been fine doing it a little at a time with it on. But they shoved it all in there, then turned it on, then turned on the water & walked off.

Yep and now the middle setting is tighter then it used to be. Can cause some gurgling but if you set it in between with a little of the two spots showing you can get the same air flow.

 

[2legsshrt]

One air inlet was the way they started this is the 5th generation of air flow. They got better then worse then better again and this one I guess is ok cause you can make it work but the last one was just right. Don't know why they change them when they are working good.

I checked the new software out for the SX and unless you really want to program in a curve in your vaping and use several different kinds of atty's with different wires in them its kind of useless. It would be the same for me with the DNA I am only using Ti and all the same type of atty's so as long as it does Ti really well I'm a happy camper. The new SX looks to be built really tough and you have the same abilities you have on the M without the SW otherwise it is just a little faster bigger mod then the M.

Up at 5 AM to get dressed and leave for this at 7....

​

afternoon spent with family .......going to dinner with extended family and friends.....crowned by her receiving a new car from her Daddy as a graduation gift......

 

[2legsshrt]

The only time I ever change anything is when I put a new coil in I start it out at a little less power and temp then work my way up to what I like 420-430F 15-16J and thats where they stay till I change coils. All set the same and all I do is push the button and vape

 

[2legsshrt]

Oh and fill them up occasionally
