I usually draw a little air into the syringe before I suck up any liquid because I can see the bottom of that meniscus better. Plus, I figure pushing the air out behind the liquid cleans out the needle too.


That's the same wrap I have on my Pthingy and I love it. Haven't tried to take the JWrap off, but I'd think the problem would be not to stretch it. Maybe if you put it in the freezer for a few minutes? I think I've heard of people using contact paper to make a wrap - somebody on this thread?

The only problem with drawing a little air in before the juice is it gets pressurized when you.push in the plunger and make the syringe drool on the counter when I set it down with anything left in it

But how can it drool when it's empty? The air I suck up first gets pushed out too and that pushes out what's in the needle. The only drips I get are from the outside of the needle from when I put it in the bottle to suck up the liquid.

It often takes a substantial amount of vodka just to clean a single clearo.

For example, I needed some glass bottles with wire-attached tops for my nic joose. I found some excellent ones with vodka pre-installed. It's called "360 Double Chocolate" vodka. However, with the chocolate added I'm not even going to attempt to use it for clearo cleaning. It's dang good.

So, I need to put my nic in glass before it goes in the freezer or I need to drink more Vodka?

It's not empty, if Matt does what I do, which is to fill the syringe in order to use it for a couple a few clearo fills.

My solution for that is to pull in some air at the tip end after I've filled the clearo. Keeps the syringe from leaking when I lay it down on the table.

Yes.

I'm not overly concerned that I have 2 one-liter bottles of nic in plastic containers in the freezer, but once I've finished 2 more bottles of the 360 vodka, I'll transfer the nic to those bottles.

Heck, just toss the vodka in the freezer. It's better chilled anyway.
Definitely better chilled, and putting it in the freezer avoids having to dilute it with ice cubes. It's quite smooth enough to drink straight without wincing, and gets smoother as time goes along.

Sounds kinda dangerous finishing two bottles and then workin' with nic. :/

Ha! You must be speaking of some other sloth, because I never mumble. Sometimes I shout incoherently, but I always do it distinctly.

You’re right, I was wrong. You were speed talking and being quit precise at that.

I will pick up a big bottle of Vodka on my next liquor store run.

Once again, my thanks to all!!! vape on!

I forgot you have to go to a state store for hard liquor up there. My condolences on that.

But the bottles have childproof caps. ;)

You forgot the bacon flavored vodka bottle in that family portrait.

I have spent a while today at j-wraps, salivating over Dragon , but decided that I could be able to save $15 by transferring my old White & Blue Flower to my new Vamo. I mean, $15 for a piece of printed plastic? If you are going to spend that much, it should hold up to being transferred without tearing or stretching, right??


:D success!!! But I will still long for that dragon.

That is an awesome dragon! Christmas is coming. Buy it then and add that expense to holiday presents, not the $1 a day expense account. ;) I won't tell anybody.

I used duct tape too on a stainless ego. Didn’t do nearly as good a job as you did but I still like the little penguins. :)

Hellava deal for all you Kanger ProTank fans HERE with free $hipping! Dat's $.72 per head...

Thank you! Is that their regular price? Never heard of them (but I stay away from browsing too much, saves me a lot of money). Excellent price but they don’t have 1.8s at the moment.

You can put the plastic bottle in the freezer (or fridge) and drink vodka until the bottles arrive. Just make sure the nic has gone back to room temp before open and pour into the bottles. Someone did it cold, which will also create condensation in the nic, but the bottles broke as the nic warmed up and expanded.

I like the peacock feathers most. Right now my account is recovering from nic purchase and new Vamo.

I am writing a book, and waiting for someone to complete a computerized study that is essential. So I am polishing and collecting suggestions. Once I get some money from that, I will treat myself to many things I have gone without for the past ten or so years.

I use a syringe to fill my Kayfun and it doesn't always need all of it.

Now this I can't wait to hear about. It's a good book to curl up with a vape because it's about...? No, I'm not looking at the peacock feathers, it will save me money.

OOS right now, but should have some in by Monday!

:D !


Well, let's see, we can surely trust BT to be upright, accurate, and unbiased with their statesmen's now , can't we. :mad:

Why is it that only ex-smokers and some current smokers can see through BT’s and BP’s bs but not politicians and the general public? I just wanted to quit smoking, not become a political activist. Knowing what I do now it makes me nauseous how much money I gave them, though I tried with all my heart and soul to quit and couldn’t until I used vaping. Out and about yesterday and saw a lot of people smoking. I feel so badly for them. Hoping that seeing someone vape plants that seed.

Well I finally finished my box mod. I should have taken pictures of the build but, like lots of things I got involved in the build and totally forgot. Sorry guys. I'll do better next time I promise. :) Anyways I finished it. SX350 board that goes to 60 watts. Two Sony VCT4 batteries in parallel give me around 4200 mah. Pretty much lasts the whole day and then some. Yesterday was the first day of full use and it went from 4.2 volts in the morning to 3.65 volts when I put it on charge at bedtime. Not bad! :) Here is a pic of the final project. Mike thanks for letting me pick your brains.
