[Iffy]

Can't 'member where, but tried dat wid no success a couple o' times...

Dere's (hopefully) always a next time!

I"m semi stocked on PT and T3S coils, having standardized on those way back. Don't use them much at all, although one on a spinner and a lanyard is handy for when out doing yard work, and I won't cry if it does get broken Rebuilt the ones that have seen use, easy enough though "fiddly."

Most everything else is KFs, so 500' of kanthal and a 90 year supply of rayon

I think it was 2legs that sent me some rayon when it first came out. Still vaping it. Might run out in 2020. Thanks Pat.

If you run low, let me know

However, all of those factory coils and atomizers aren't just for me. I also keep my hairdresser and my niece who are still in the process of switching over totally to vaping...supplied with their coils, too. Also, a few others I've helped to switch will get in touch if they need some in a hurry. Lots more friends starting DIY who like the atomizers, too. They all know I'm a deal finder and will do whatever I can to help them keep vaping!

wow! Glad to know you are very stocked, and can help so many others! But do you have a separate room for all that???

Hope your hairdresser and niece can totally switch over!

But, my brother lives further away and has no patience to rebuild. I finally found something that will work for him (CLRs)

really glad you found something he likes, hope he can stick with it this time and y'all can find many more at good prices.

I learned that if you put no more than 2 of something in your cart, then post your coupon code to it, and once it's applied...then update the quantity to what you really want...it'll take the discount % off all 5 or more that you want at the quantity lower price, too. Otherwise, because you get a quantity discount for 3 or more...it won't give you any more discount than that...even with the coupon.

oh kewl!

Evening everybody. Had my heater on for the first time this year, we r down in single digit degrees C. at night. Winter is here. Our sweet, and ok, dog with an attitude problem passed away a few days ago. We got her right after we crossed the dateline for good. Never gets any easier. I don't know how to put photos on here. I keep forgetting she's gone. I don't have to hide when I eat a cookie anymore. It's just not the same.
Two of three of my nautilus tanks are stuck shut. I tried a wrench, needle nose pliers, and holding under hot running water. Still stuck. Time to toss them or is there a trick that sometimes works?

you could wd-40 the tanks, then wash them well.

Wow ... that's lot of coils for a lot of different tanks.

I second trying the WD-40.
So sorry to hear of the loss of your dog. It is never easy to accept.

That is my go-to also, putting it in the freezer,too.

Never an easy thing to do or time to go through, @Vape?, sad to hear.

Maybe put them in the freezer for a half hour or so, and try again? I don't use them, but freezing can sometimes help loosen up stuck threads.

Even though there is a 3-month backorder, I placed my order at Temco for 250' of SS316l this morning. I think I have enough to get through until I get it. If not, I have plenty of Kanthal, Ni200, and Nichrome. Push come to shove, I can always use my Herakles Plus with the Ni200 coils.

Hin Vape?! [emoji12] You may be vaping your Nauti's too low before refilling. Don't vape them below 1/4 tank. They build up a vacuum that can make it hard to get them apart. Also, put a bit of pg, vg, or juice on the rings before tightening & DO NOT over tighten! Finger tight is enough because of the vacuum effect. With the metal cage replacement tops, if you've noticed, the only screw threading on a Nauti it for the coil. In the base where the coil screws in, & inside the top where the coil screws into the chimney. There are no threads to hold the base to the top. The coil is what holds it together. With the glass tanks there is threading it the top of the glass which is another reason they get stuck.
No getting it apart. If you are using the glass tanks you'll need a tissue or even a light towel or rag to cushion the 2 pairs of pliers you'll need for top & base to twist them apart. If you are using the metal cage replacement tanks follow same procedure. I would not use wd-40 on those silicone orings. Even with cleaning well after. Those tanks shouls be good for many years only needing the silicone rings replaced every few years. If you aren't using the metal cage tanks I strongly recommend you get those & toss the glass ones. You'll lose a tiny bit of juice capacity & but save frustration, they are very durable.

I have these, $2.79 Ceramic + Plastic Tweezers for E-Cigarettes - straight pointed tip / 41mm long tip at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Get at least 2 (and an extra set for backup ), 1 to put on the top, and 1 for the bottom, and twist. Sometimes I have to use quite a bit of force, but the Nauti eventually comes apart. I don't think I've ever used the tweezer end, so anything similar ought to do it.

ETA....I forgot about the glass tanks , all mine have the caged tank. I don't know if I'd use the tweezer thingys on the glass top.

@Vape?, please read my updated post.

He, he ... I just so happen to have 3 of those. One pair even has an interchangeable insert for different diameter attys.

So sorry to hear that. As to photos, they have to be under 1 mb I think, but you can often copy and paste, or drag and drop. Other than that you can click upload a file under the reply box, and insert it that way.
