If you can see part of the coils through the air holes, your good. Which batts are you usin it in it?
Thanks for the coil ideas. I am using Efast IMR 186550 35A. If those are not good let me know and I will pick up some others.

Right now I have only been using Liquid Barn for my DIY supplies because they are FDA Approved already and will be here two years from now. I have been contemplating the Italian Flavor company but mixed reviews from others kept me with my tried and true.
never heard of liquid barn, will have to check that out. They really have already been FDA approved? Are they owned by a tobacco manufacturer? That's great if they are approved and have good flavors. I'll check em out. By italian flavors, do you mean flavour art? I've got a lot of their's. Some are really great, some not as much. I've got mostly FA, Capellas, and some inawera.

I need to find a way to store these. 2-3 30mls deep, and about 3' wide x 8 shelves long. Shelves would have to be tall enough for 4oz bottles. With doors & wall hanging. I want to be able to open the door & scan the shelves for what I need. I hate digging. A perfect thing would be able to hang on the inside of a closet door, wouldn't even need doors on it then.
yeah I've been thinking about that too. Haven't come up with the perfect thing yet. I've seen some folks use these,

and so far that's the best I've come up with. Still a little digging but not like being in a bag. I do have mine grouped in smaller ziplocks with fruits in one, coffee, creams, custards etc in one, my betelgeuse fruits in one by themselves, etc. Then put those in one large ziplock. But still a lotta diggin.

that would be a good thing to ask on the Reo lounge. Lots of very knowledgeable folks there bout batts. Plenty of amps, that's for sure, but they can tell ya bout the chemistry of those with a mech. Course some here might also. Is it this one? Here's what Mooch has to say. I haven't read it cuz I've been up about 40 hours.

I asked Busardo about storing liquids flavoring and he said that the flavoring should be refrigerated. @SteveS45 are all their flovors good. They have some really interesting flavors. We'll have to talk more about what are the best. I see they recommend 5% is that about right. I am thinking of getting one of their trial kits with a bunch of diff flavors to try. Some sound really good. Interested in hearing more.

so sowwy! But if I did individual posts, you'd have 10 additional pages to catch up on! :p
Jup, well, you guys did something like 7 pages today. You'll be lucky if you don't have to do 20 pages from me today.
Just wondering if you managed to get your top cap unstuck. :unsure: drmarble's suggestion should definitely give ya the extra leverage you might need for that. Another option would be to do as Deb suggested and put it in the freezer for a l'il bit. That should harden the orings and reduce the friction point of their gripping ability. Then, you could dip the top of the top cap into really hot water to expand the upper section more than the base, and it should pull right off. The point of that is to harden the orings and contract all of the metal; then expand the outermost metal to increase the size difference between the two separate pieces. I've had to do that with my Stumpy a coupla times. That one likes to grab really tight sometimes, too, but it's too precious to me for me to take a screwdriver or pliers to it. If you need a little extra grip, I suggest one of those silicone pot holders. Those things have saved a number of my attys. ;)

Welcome to da porches! I agree with everyone else... You should post more! I particularly like the suggestion of removing one of the orings... I'll probably end up doing that on a couple of my attys now! :thumbs:

He send a couple more pics, with some swans on the lake. It really is beautiful up there; I fervently hope that I can make it up there for a visit at some point. I'd love to just drive, hike, camp, fly-over, and boat around to see as much of it as I possibly could!

:) It was a lot of fun. We moved to Missouri when I was 16, and that was probably the best thing I ever found to do up there. We'd take flashlights, glow sticks, climbing rope, and chalk to mark our paths so we could get back out again (I always used purple chalk ;) ). It's unbelievable how you can literally crawl 100 yards on your belly to squeeze through a section, and then have it open up to a cavern the size of a small amphitheater. Even found an underground stream in one of the caves... very cold, clear, fresh water. It'd probably kill me to try that now, but the memories will last the rest of my life. :D

I didn't even know they did drawings! :shock: I'll definitely have to request something with my next order. Thanks for the tip! :D:thumbs:
Really hope to make it up there someday, summer and winter. Would love to see part of the Iditarod. So many things to see and experience up there. Battery solar charger in the summer for batteries would be killer!

As I said, I envy you and your caving. It would be something. There are some here but nothing like back east or in Europe. Many others elsewhere but something out of my reach at this point. I saw some in Europe when I was young and was in awe, I just didn't appreciate them as much as I should have. You get kind of jaded as a kid.

Get the drawing, pretty funny.
Ouch! Ouch! Stop twisting my arm, Diver. I'll do it. I'll buy something new I promise. :lol:
Just buy it. Something shiny. You deserve it. Not to mention it is a porch requirement for every milestone. Buy it, buy it, buy it,,,
If I vape on the front porch does that make me older? :w00t:
Five inches tall in alert mode, weighs four ounces, striped fur, blue t-shirt and pilfered Harry Potter glasses. I swear I know you from somewhere but can’t quite place you. Anyway, welcome to the porch! Good news is you don’t weigh enough to trigger Iffy’s whoopee cushions.

For those that don’t know, Steve has done a heroic job in getting people to sign the petition lately. That means that over 2,000 people are getting updates on FDA and state anti-vaping regulations they may well not be aware of otherwise. Profound thank you Steve. :thumbs:
So I finally saw one off those new Logic e-cigs out in the wild the other day...
View attachment 597261 (I didn't run it over, found it like that)
:laugh:
That is disgusting. That's what the FDA wants us to look forward to. I'm sure polluting the earth even more will make us all healthier. Way to go BT, BP and FDA!
Did ya miss me???

Sorry for being absent (and tardy) yet again. Oh well, what can I say, LIFE :shock: .............. at least I'm still above ground. ;) :)

Congratulations to @MikeADore for 200 days! YEAH!!! :thumbs: :thumbs: :banana: :banana:

Congratulations @steves for surpassing the 2 year mark! Double YEAH!!! :banana: :thumbs: :banana: :thumbs:

Awesome on getting the new shinnies set up @Diver9543! :banana: :banana: :banana:
A Big HOWDY to @drmarble ! :toast:

DARK CHOCOLATE RULES!!! :D :D :D
(Bacon not so much as a vape flavor anyway)

NO FREAKIN' Barney!!! :grr: :grr: :grr:
(even if he is purple)

Fall is definitely setting in and of course there's hunting and fishing to be done, the birds are starting to head South and there's abundant beauty to be enjoyed, everywhere. The convenience of these Kanger RBA's has been fantastic! Dry burn, re-wick and vape on! Two or three days off the grid and no worries what so ever!!! YEAH again!!! :) :) :)

I hope everyone is doing FANTASTIC!!! I sure have missed all of "mah peeps"!!! :wub: :wub: :wub:

Vape On!
:cool: Von Vape :cool:
You are forgiven, enjoy the wonders of nature, changing seasons and renewed life via vaping. :wub:

Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain! hehehe Most fryin pan whackins are just lil love taps anyhow. Jup, that's my story and I'm stickin to it! :sneaky:
Love taps? Yeah, right, I've seen the photo evidence and it ain't pretty. :lol:
That doesn't help us identify you! :lol:
Four inches tall, blue t-shirt, Harry Potter glasses under a park oak tree in Long Island. How difficult can it be?
Last week I mixed up two 120ml bottles of juice. Testing the first one tonight. Excellent flavor and the vape is smooth.

To bad I did not write down what I put in it... Well, at least I get to enjoy it for a few weeks anyway...
Um, how long have you been vaping? Yeah, I know, been there and done that despite knowing better. :cry:

Did ya miss me???

Most definitely! Glad that you had such a wonderful getaway and found your way back. And, now I suspect a caribou hunt in your near future. ;) (Wish I could go!)

Goin' home, tomorrow. It's been a busy day, getting ready!

@drmarble, top cap off! The reason I thought I hadn't seen you, before, is because you joined on 2/8. That happens to be a special day for me -- and one for which I'm ever grateful to my mom. :wub:

@Kaezziel, so you're a purple baby too, huh? Yet another reason ... :)

Yaayyyy!! Packin' up and getting ready to travel is a bit of a pain, but I'm sure you're excited to get back home! :wub: Glad that you got the top cap off, too. :)

And yep! Two days after Valentine's Day. I'm a lover; not a fighter. But, I'll fight for the ones I love! :D

And if you are me the missteps are big :blush:. Welcome Steve. I'm pretty new on the porch too. Great people here. :)

Nah, you aren't as bad as you think you are, Ms. Bea... We've occasionally needed reminding by the mods, but most times, we manage to police ourselves. ;)

Really hope to make it up there someday, summer and winter. Would love to see part of the Iditarod. So many things to see and experience up there. Battery solar charger in the summer for batteries would be killer!

Absolutey agree! I don't even know where I'd wanna start... prolly just go straight to Von's and make him drag me around and show me all the cool stuff! :sneaky::lol:

As I said, I envy you and your caving. It would be something. There are some here but nothing like back east or in Europe. Many others elsewhere but something out of my reach at this point. I saw some in Europe when I was young and was in awe, I just didn't appreciate them as much as I should have. You get kind of jaded as a kid.

I never did see any of the caves in Europe. :( I have been to some of the larger "commercial" caves here in the states. It's pretty cool to go on those little tours, but I think I liked the small little caves that you could just wander into and explore on your own. The formations and caverns weren't as fancy or impressive as the larger ones, but there's just something about discovering it on your own that made it better for me. :) Of course, hindsight being what it is, I'd never do that now without a completely different approach. Young and dumb proves that ignorance is bliss, but luck is the reason that I'm still here today. Caves can be extremely dangerous, and I'm very lucky that I didn't get trapped in one with no oxygen! :shock:

    I think she reserves that more for the back porch...
    I can tell you from personal experience that the frying pan has been used in other places than just the back porch. I think I still have bumps from my last encounter.

    I only keep the good ones. I like a lot of variety and mostly I mix by what feels good at the time. My tried and true mixes are known by heart, but sometimes I wonder what it would be like with this or that - I always make a note of what I did, but forgot on this one, but I will still enjoy it.

    To date my best juice mix ever was my scrap discard collection - have not an inkling of what had all been dumped in. But it was delicious...

    @Debadoo so far I have about 24 of the Liquid Barn flavors actually 4 are on the way but I will be glad to share my opinion of them as so far all my choices were spot on going with what I like. Feel free to start a conversation or a thread in the DIY if you like. Although I have found that many of the DIY Guru's are not open to trying new things. In my opinion going with tried and true does make for successful recipes but not experimenting hinders innovation and creativity.

    I'm open to trying new flavors. I sort of like TFA but they are too diluted for my liking. Some FA I have had are good. Inawera has some sort of good flavors but they are not right on for me. Bakers Flavors are mixed some are really good like their Cocoa Beans, Creme Brulee, But their fruits are not the best some are good but others are weak.

    So you enjoy antagonizing Deb too huh - lol... You should see her wield a real one - I and a few others have - we had a blast with it... :D:lol:
    Jup he does......and Jup we did!! Iffy was the mastermind of that.......and I thank him soooo much. I was just gonna get one of me whackin you! But his idea was priceless. Will cherish many photos from the Odyssey but that one is definitely high on the list.

    Kewl. I don't really go to the DIY area, but I'm sure many here would also love to hear your opinions of them. That cherry blossom tea sounds really good. Have you tried that one? Which ones are your favs??

    someone's impersonating me????????? :laugh:

    @Kenna I don't know what it would take to BF this, might be as easy as finding a screw in BF pin. It does have a 2 mm reservoir, but that might all suck down back into the bottle. But it does have a screw on top cap



    ETA: dunno if bf'in would work with bottom airflow being under the coil or not.

    Yep if it was purple that was Deb (LOL)...

    Iffy was the mastermind of a lot of the fun things we did...

    And no - impersonating you is not possible - what would the world be like if there were two of you... (shudder)... LOL
