Ok if this picture works here is a comparison of the Blotto on and alien and the Cerebus on a Solo.

Also this is the embroidery I did for my mother I fought to get back in the family mess after her death

Be damned if I was going to let family take it after all the nastiness.
That embroidery is absolutely precious.....I just love, love, love it!!! :wub: Sorry you had to go through the trouble to get it back, but happy that you did!! :)

That Blotto looks like a miniature beer keg! ;) I suppose given the Cerebus is sold as a sub-ohm tank, it's an airy draw when vaping it. Is the right.

WOW!

That embroidery is amazing. Such intricate work went into it, so very nice.

Both the blotto and the cerebus have adjustable airflow. I suspect using a 510 driptip with adapter, setting it up single coil (rather than double) and closing down the airflow it would be quite a bit more restricted. As it is the thing really is not as airy as I expected. Mine is setup with with a single .6 ohm coil and run wide open airflow. It isn't much worse than the subtank mini wide open airflow wise.

Is that needlepoint or counted cross stitch? I can't tell from the pic. It's beautiful!

Wow! It's gorgeous! And that painting was one of the interactive paintings that was shown in the link Uncle Willie recently posted. You really do fantastic work! No wonder you fought to get it back, but it makes no sense that you had to.

What do you think about the cerebus drip tip? Ok, that was dumb. I should have backed up and read a little more before asking.

"You" . . . :rolleyes:

Is this Hogs Breath associated with the one in Key West?

It was just a mess of this relative wanted this and that one that and everyone wanted the embroidery. After being made to feel distinctly that for many I was only part of the family while my adopted parents were alive and therefore unworthy of getting anything. I um...well I was not nice about it.

It isn't all bad. I still have an Aunt and 2 cousins I am on speaking terms with. I have the hubbbys family who I get along fine with. I have a few good friends. So I am not absolutely alone.

And I have the satisfaction of winning the great embroidery war. ;)

Edit: Ever have one of those nights where every mod you pick up needs a battery change? This is number 4 tonight :p

I'm glad you won that war. It must have taken forever to complete the piece and you did a beautiful job.

Yes, sometimes they all need a new charge or all the tanks are empty at the same time. Just so it doesn't happen when you're away from home!

Well full tilt panic sunk in over all the bad vaping news.

Yeah. I am accidentally long on hardware after I had to upgrade from my VV v3s and Davides and join the big kids. Got a full set of Wismec Reuleaux 75s thanks to a recommendation here by DavidOck about the squeeze to fire instead of buttons, and then saw the Wismec P80s - similar firing, but mostly plastic and so much lighter. So I got a full set of them as well.*

Since I can't make coils I need to standardize my tanks, and there's no current equivalent of the universal Protank coils. So I tried a few attys and really like the original Uwell Crown, and stocked up on those. With the current panic I'm ordering coils as fast as I can - Fasttech sells them reasonably cheaply in batches of 20. I also am ordering more nicotine as fast as I can.

* I'm feeling a little guilty at spending so much when the only reason I can was being dumped into the Rx doughnut hole and finding out that I'm so broke I qualify for Medicare 'Extra Help' which dropped close to $300 a month back into my budget. The good thing that came out of my house fire 5 years ago is that I now own a small house free and clear, which leaves utilities and internet my only fixed expenses.

I'm having 'fun' today vaping all of my DIY errors and oldies. I have been putting off a mixing session and got caught in my own procrastination when I had 3 competing uses for my only sit-down counter space, one of which I could hurry through and try to forget I was going to do it right. But potting houseplants had to be done as soon as they got here - and then to have a place to move them to I had to put together a tension-pole with lots of little plant shelves, since almost all current sunny spots are occupied by cats. That ended up taking 2 days since it involved a lot of loosening and tightening little knobs - another thing my hands don't do too well, and I want to give the cats a night to check it out before I move my plants to it.

So tomorrow I ought to be able to get to my DIY, but I need to make up a big batch of my base to start with, and that will be a lot easier to do when I get my new 2 liter beaker on Monday. I've been using a 2 qt pyrex measuring cup/mixing bowl but it weighs a ton-and-1/2 and has wildly inaccurate measuring lines so I can only use it to dump measured stuff into.

So, for tonight and tomorrow I have my Jasmine Tea that I over-sweetened trying to give it more body, and my Burley Menthol that doesn't work well at lower ohms and higher wattages - it tastes too much like smoking tobacco now - tootle-puffing it tasted more like good pipe tobacco smells before burning. Then I have some smaller amounts of fruit flavors I never finished. I still have a very small amount in the tanks of my Earl Grey Tea and Mixed Mint to have an occasional puff of.

Heads up for any Ready X Wick users here.....

Jeremy sent me an email to advise that Ohio has introduced a bill to ban the sale of vaping products. As fast as that ball is rolling all over the US now days he is not sure how much longer he will be able to sell the RxW. I personally have a huge supply, but if anyone here wants to get it while you still can now is probably the time.

Isn't that what we have sunny spots for? ;)
Not me. I have a cat to keep me in shape. You know, letting him out the door, letting him in, standing around while whether he wants to go through the door, or just watch it to see how long I will hold it open for him.

What, you don't have to turn on a faucet for him to drink? :lol:
True story my old maine .... could open her own doors and was very good at turning the kitchen faucet on in the middle of the night. Mind you she was nearly 30 pounds of cat so she had a bit of advantage over the average kitty.
