Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part 5

[seminolewind]

I rebuilt my protanks for my wife and I for almost 2 years and loved them until the subtank showed up at the house.
- as long as your jig fits into the slots of the protank head you can use it as a coil jig.
- I found 32 gauge too thin and once it dryburns a few times it gets weak and distorts easily. I made our PT coils with 30 gauge, IMO the 28 can be used but it requires too many wraps, gets too hot thus heating up the base, discoloring your juice faster and not enough airflow to support lower ohm builds even with a kanger airflow adapter thats been drilled out.
- I've been using the kanger subtank mini with its RBA and have had no issues with that atty at all
- very easy to build tootle puffer coil builds. I build my wife 1.4-1.6ohm builds in the subtank mini and she is a happy vaper, me on the other hand love my low ohm clapton builds.
- never bought prewound coils. I just build the coils I want.
Be sure you buy the spare orings and insulators for your protanks. Not the orings as much as the positive insulators, they dry up and get crispy after time and also if you dryburn the head too hot or have "hot legs" you will scorch and burn the insulator. Enjoy rebuilding your protanks, those protanks set the stage for me to have the confidence to recoil all my attys and have top shelf vape experience with ordinary gear.
Even with a brand new PT head, you remove the silica, replace it with cotton and the change in vape quality is outstanding.

I forgot to add is that I'm pretty sure the Davide and protank are interchangeable. I used a sigelei puritanks that is a davide clone and used all my protank parts along with the base. The davide holds more juice than the protank so thats why I liked them more than the protanks until they got broken and I had to go back to using the PT.

You might want to check on that. I think that Davide uses Aspire atty's and Protank uses Kanger attys.

Thanks, Vape. I should have more news to share in the near future. She's meeting with the clinical trial group today.



She's been through far more than I, that's for sure. And yes, the lung thing has been causing her an immense amount of pain over the last several weeks. Fortunately, she has some really good pain meds.

Your love and care and support are most appreciated, Dear Tutu! Praying that the antibiotics have done their job and that you are getting better now. Reactions and side effects of medications are never fun to deal with. I hate when anyone that I care for has to suffer through those effects, and I care deeply about all of you here.

I've heard that one can vape , smoke, or eat .....for pain. That's a medical reason.

I generally don't like people. I am more than happy to sit back and "read" people and situations. I do however enjoy interactions with like minded people so this is good!!!!

As some on here know I have a rather extreme form of Social Anxiety. The internet and forums are my main contact with the outside world.

The folks here have managed to get me onto the hangout to chat now and then which is it's own miracle.

 

[Kaezziel]

LOL! Okay, I guess I'll be the oddball... I love people... I hug complete strangers... I flip out and start talking to any fellow vaper that I encounter in the wild... y'all would hate me!

Nope I would Love ya. I would know I am totally safe from my own social awkwardness.

 

[DavidOck]

Really y'all give me too much credit. She did the hard part. I just provided the nudges.

Uh, the perseverance you showed teaching and reteaching the same things.... not all would do that!

You might want to check on that. I think that Davide uses Aspire atty's and Protank uses Kanger attys.

The Davide's can use either. Just take two small parts off (and keep for later use) and you can use Kanger single coil heads. Which are easily rebuildable. Put 'em back in to use the Aspire heads. (It's the intermediate "base" piece and the insulating ring that goes with it that come out.)

You mean that you'd just love me because you know that I'd make a big enough fool of myself that you could skate by without worry?

I like people. In smallish doses . 'Cept, of course, for the ones I love! Then I can do somewhat bigger doses

Most vapers are pretty cool, though. Especially ones that frequent porches!

Perfect!! All in a good way, you would have to try really hard to be foolish with the friends I hang out with!!!!

Don't get me wrong, I deal with people, actually very well. Sometimes purely for selfish reasons if that makes sense??!!

 

[clnire]

I deal with people with work all the time. Some I get along with, some I tolerate, some, well, I try to avoid. But after hours, leave me 'lone! Except for a few, choice friends and of course porchers!

 

[clnire]

Forgot to mention, I use protank coils with the larger chimney part in my 1 old full size Davide and my multi minis with no problems.

No I'd be confidant you would not be judging me overly harshly.

Good Evening dwellers suffering from a head cold the last few days and it has been so long since I have been sick it really sucks! I forgot what it felt like! E-liquids don't taste good except for Tobaccos but thank goodness for DIY!

Oh , i see , well that makes sense, my situation is a little different however , my general dislike for most people is i find them to be annoying , they tend to get on my nerves.

Not all people of course but most .

+ one more. I too suffer with social anxiety. It is really good that I love my home because I spend 99.9% of my time right here. I even have to force myself to get out and go to town for necessary stuff. I mostly stay in the background here on the porches but I do try to keep up with all of y'all. I send prayers when needed and quietly celebrate anniversary's, birthday's and all other good news. each and every one of y'all.....The porches are one more reason to call vaping a miracle.
