Thanks very much! I appreciate the offer and will keep it in mind if I decide to try 316. Right now, my interest is academic. Maybe someone (
@2legsshrt?) will be able to tell me what relative advantages/disadvantages there are between 304 and 316. Curiously, I have tried the 304 on two mods so far in TC mode. It works great on the SX Mini but on the Sigelei Kaos, the resistance does not read correctly. It reads at about half of what it actually is. When I switch the Kaos to power mode, the resistance reads correctly and it works fine. Strange.
I don't do TC or even regulated, so dunno the diff there, but you can see when I get it to ya.
I normally just google stuff or just save links to things. But, if I'm going to be paranoid, I might as well go all the way! I'm going to download the videos in case they disappear in the future.
So, my current stocking up is of videos instead of gear.
Since building coils for different RBAs is the most likely thing I would need videos for, I'm starting my project with those videos. I already finished my RTAs (unless I find/buy more). Next up is my RDAs.
The videos might be helpful when I forget things. But, even more, they would help teach someone else that builds for me when I can't do it myself anymore.
not a bad idea really
Solar battery chargers, anybody know a good one. I know zip about them but thinking I may really need one this summer.
Two days ago we had an intense t-storm with a bit of hail and a lot of snow. From that we got multiple fires. Today it was 90. Tomorrow near 100 and will stay there for at least five days. We have the worst fuel load I've ever seen and this year may well be the worst fire season we've seen. Dead trees still keep dropping power lines almost daily. We usually don't get fires of consequence until late July.
My point is, I would like to get a solar powered battery charger that could charge a couple of IMR 18490 batteries, smoke permitting. We also use 18650 in our flashlights. Nothing fancy. Any ideas? Where do I start?
dang darlin! Really good to see you, but wow.....so many things y'all have to deal with there.
I wrap maybe 4 coils at a time & put them on a big safety pin & latch it. I have several safety pins & keep them in an Altoids tin. When I'm going to be gone for days I just pack the tin of coils & one of cotton.

Great idea! I have a pack or two of those giant safety pins in my craft stuff, but not sue if those in what I have here or the stuff that's still in storage. Will have to check through a couple boxes here when my back quits screamin at me
Almost forgot the most important part: Smoke free for 2.5 years thanks to vaping.
yay!!! and wb. Good to see ya
You're right; 3 is overkill, but I have an explanation. I have one next to my bed, one on the arm of the couch and one at my computer desk so that I don't have to carry one with me when moving from one of those locations to another.
I used to do that with my cig packs, but not by the bed. Didn't smoke in bed and don't vape in bed. A few times I have come out for a vape when I get up to go potty though. Several times have been laying in bed trying to sleep wishing I had a mod in the bedroom. I've typically been a one mod at a time person. But am fixin to get several up and running and if I remember, I think I will put one in the bedroom.
I currently have 6 mods going with different flavors. I am a flavor-flitter (I like that 3mg!) too. I have at lease 2 mods when I go out, both with different flavors.
I don't go out much or for very long at a time. But I do wanna get a purse that has those lil pouches on the outside. I should carry more than one mod with me just in case, but so far have never had an issue. (knock on wood)
Morning folks! I read this thread a lot but rarely post, but all the posts about coils really has peaked my interest. I have Reos that I use at times and I stocked up on Kayfun for the days when I might not be able to get blister packs. Unfortunately my arthritis is getting worse and after reading here I have decided to make a bunch of coils and use my RTAs while I can still build coils and see well enough to wrap those legs! I think the blister packs will be better a few years down the road.
Looks like I need to make a run to Wally World for Altoids and safety pins
Sooooooo good to see you!!! Saw you'd posted somewhere else earlier today. How ya doin hun? Sorry to hear the arthritis is worse.
At least now my daughters know where and what to gather if I ever get 'medically involuntarily incarcerated' again!
Good idea! Jup you even had your mod when parasailing. I would have loved to have had a vape up there, but I'm so clumsy, no way was I taking a chance of dropping a Reo into the Atlantic!

I shoulda gone with you, we coulda buddy vaped
So I was finally in the market for some new 18650's. I've always been an AW batt fanboy. But I just ordered 4 of the brown LG 18650 HG2 3000MAH 20A batts from RTD during their Father's Day sale. Anyone else use these batts?
Been using them since last year just after the Odyssey. Lost my batt case and my batts, I think at the airport somewhere when picking kay up. Used her batts while in Fl, had to buy new ones when I got home. I bought 6 of them and have been mostly rotating them through one mod since and have been real happy with them. They still last me right at 24 hrs.
