Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part 2

[Myrany]

As for why I don't like MVPs.

I have a basic problem with a disposable culture in general. I gravitate towards things that can be repaired and kept going for many years rather than things you use and throw away. That goes for everything be it vape related or not. Guess I am just an old fuddy duddy.

Hello everybody.

Oh you're not a fuddy duddy.... we have become a disposable culture and we all need to work on that... its not just vape gear but about everything we use these days. Hubby and I were just talking the other day how when we got married $10,000 would have bought a very top notch vehicle and what we pay for vehicles today would have bought a house. Then unfortunately most items just aren't even made to last but a few years...

Yup. My momma used to say we iz too poor to buy cheap stuff. One good anything outlasts 20 cheapo anythings. So by the time you figger it all out you could have bought 2 good ones at half the price of the 20 cheapo's you kept replacing.

On the other hand... no such thing as a good anything anymore.

And yeah. Wasn't long after I built my first house (1972) that the car in the garage cost me more than the house did.

As far as looks, there's always J-wraps, or is it jwraps. They have many different designs printed on 3M film. Even a sonic screwdriver design for the tube style mods.

The SID is rather light with its aluminum construction and you can buy additional 18350 or 18500 sized tubes if you need them. I paid perhaps $12 for a tube and additional bottom cap. I'm not as happy with the single button menu as compared to the 3 button system on my Vamo but it is usable.

Hi Tooth, grab a vacant rocker.

 

[classwife]

More Rockers needed ??

 

[Myrany]

Actually, Maybe we should sling hammocks from the trees

 

[misswish1]

Iowa Gal - thank you, stickers may be the answer! You can get so many different things now!

Welcome, toothfairy, grab a rocker and sit a spell. Don't forget to tell us your story, we love success stories!

All boils down to...

I figured out the charger and batts. You have to plug in the charger FIRST then put the batts in. I did just the opposite, so they didn't charge. After I found that out online, I took the batts back out to the truck, plugged in the charger, put in the batts and waited 4 hrs. When I went back, the lights were green (they were red when I first put in the batts). I brought them in, let them rest for an hour and checked them with the LT. They both 4.1. Yay! Finally got it right.

As usual, operator error.

What's up with the double posts today?

Another mech. I wish you guys would quit making me get all these.

HCigar Kylin (pisces-t clone). Surprisingly small compared to the others I have using the same batteries. This is 18500. The switch needs some serious work, look at that gap.

That's nice! Does it extend out to a 18650?

You have a "yummy" blueberry
I've tried about 4 kinds, each from different company's, and I'm still trying to find one I can taste.
None of them have a flavor, no matter how much I add from 5 to 20%.

It may just be "me", as it's the same with coconut, and caramel (2 flavors I love)
Maybe those are the taste buds that didn't make it, after 56 years of smoking

Amen to that. I tried several and couldn't get taste out of any of them, started at 5% and went up to 20% and them tossed the flavor bottle ... lol

Once or twice in a while, I stop getting email notifications of new posts in my subscribed threads. Before I know it, 2 or 3 days have passed. I'm not even going to TRY and catch up!

I got my first order from E Juice yesterday. Someone in this thread, I think, posted about Lucky7 approximately 2 weeks ago, which is what caused me to check out the vendor.

I'm fairly easy to please when it comes to e-juice. I'm not especially picky and almost everything tastes pretty good to me. I do not regard myself as a connoisseur and you shouldn't regard me as one either.

BUT, the 7 different juices I got are all very good or better. (Actually I've only tried 4 of them so far, but the others definitely smell good.) The apricot flavor is amazing to me, and the prices are the best I've ever seen.

Check for discounts on the vendor's forum thread before ordering.

Yep, telescopic but does not have an 18350 only mode though.

Boy, am I glad to hear that! I ordered 6 flavors in the 120 ml size, delivered at home yesterday, but I'm 1500 miles away, so won't get to taste them until sometime next week. Steeping

Maybe da new software recognizes a 'need' to reiterate our porch threads based upon our ages. But then, maybe da new software recogi... OK, where was I...

Is dat a spring or mag switch? I have a lovely mech dat I don't use due to da mags being too strong. It's in da vapopocalypse cache. I'll mod it 'later' if need be.

I highly recommend dis BLUEBERRY, if dats da flav ya were addressing.

ETA: BTW, I use dat VZSC BB @ 2.5%.
