If I can hold out (Ha; I have ten or twenty years of nicotine stashed) my 9-year vapiversary will arrive at the end of September. (I've missed the past half dozen, so since I was reminded by Kenna's post, I will pre-celebrate it now.)
[emoji1787] I'm coming up on 7 years this August. 6 years of rebuildable tanks & 4 of making juice, almost that long of using my HexOhms. The Hexes have been the best mod investment I've made. Never had one give out on me yet, no repairs at all. I still have my original re, white, & blue, & the Rainbows End LE that I've still never used other than maybe 3 hits just to make sure it works. I bought enough nic in 2016 when rumors first started to last 20 years. Or so I thought. I'm just now at the end of the first liter!

Hi Kenna ... good to hear from you. The front porch seems to have gone dormant. I suppose by now we've all settled into our favorites and are stocked up on 'em. Not a lot of vaping 'talk' here any more.

    Hey you guys that have the Pico how well do they work on TC? Thought about grabbing a couple. I really like the eleaf products and at $28 you can't go wrong. I think PB in his reviews of the mini's rated it the best of all the ones he tried. I could be wrong will have to check. Course it wouldn't be too mini with an STM or KF V5 hanging on it.

    I’m just getting back into vaping after 7 yrs. Sad thing is I trashed all my old mods (reos, provaris, super t and a bunch of other mods. (Yes I’m still crying). Now I’m starting all over.
    Nothings the same. Darn Mail ban, FDA and all the other crap they imposed. Got ready to order like I used to and all the sites were gone bye-bye. Made me sad. Got another mod today and a new rda so life is still good. (I saw someone say something about vape talk so here it is. ROFLOL.)

    I am just starting back after 7 years or so. I trashed both of my mods by super t. They were my favorite. Maybe between us we can come up with one super t!! I would even buy the parts of ya!! Have a great day from Southern Indiana! Sandy!
    All mine went in the trash also. Almost cried.

    I have several of the Pico's and very dependable. Just wish they had a longer cutoff time.....
    If you mean the usual 10 second cut-off, I think the Pico doesn't cut off in TC mode. There is no need as things can't overheat (battery or coil) because the power is automatically cut when the coil gets hot. I know my Aegis mods can keep on as long as you keep the fire button down, shutting off momentarily to keep the coil at the desired temperature.

    To all you who tossed your rigs when you decided to quit vaping, my (retroactive) advice is DON'T. Even if you never go back to vaping, you may find yourself in a position where you want to help some newbie improve his experience over gas station disposables. How are you going to help if you don't have a supply of good (but superseded) rigs to help him or her?

    Good advice too late. If I’d have taken good advice I’d never have started smoking. My dad always told me he didn’t call me son cause I was so bright.

    Understandable. It's not a big deal to any of us anymore & as you said, we've all settled in. It's really good to see the familiar names!

    Ran out of money. But I got juice. Trying to talk my sweetie into some more nic salt in which I’ll need something to put it in.
    That is if she will pay all expense.

    Good afternoon and welcome to the weekend. I hope everyone is doing okay and it is so wonderful seeing some new faces. I have a question about cotton. I have been using the same package of Koh Gen Do that I bought at least 4 years ago. Out of a pack of 80 sheets I have 22 sheets left. Does anyone know of a brand of cotton, where I don't have to remove the top and bottom off of the sheets to use for wicking my coils? I'm having a bit of a problem peeling off the sheets. My fat fingers are not as nimble as they used to be. Stay safe and well.

    Have you tried Cotton Bacon? OR https://smile.amazon.com/Japanese-O...9Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=
