Have any of you tried a uwell Crown. I heard they are pretty good thinking of getting one later down the road. Considering 1 ML also way down the road.
I have one and enjoy it. The thing that I like most is the top fill.

Top fill rules. That'z why I never got past the I30. Remove top, fill, replace top. Don't blink, you'll miss it. I can't imagine taking a tank off the mod, turning it upside down, taking it apart, getting a needle or something to fit the mini hole, filling it, hope it doesn't leak when you put it back together and screw it back on the mod. Just can't do that all without a lunch break in the middle of the project. I'd prolly go back to smoking.

Lol! Take it off the mod, flip it, remove screw, seat the bottle in the hole & fill, put the screw back in, flip, reattach to mod & vape away. Do it again the next day.

Hah! I timed it and it takes LESS than 20 SECONDS to refill a 3ml tank. And I do it a few times a day. Unscrew top, fill, replace top. Done. Sorry but I am the essence of laziness. And a chain vaper. :D

Take me about 30 seconds to refill my 4.5 ml STM.
Unscrew from APV. hold upside down. Unscrew base. squirt full of eliquid from unicorn bottle. rescrew base. Replace on APV. I do this at least 4 times a day.
I fully agree on the little screws in the bottom though.
My topfill Lemo2 just sits all alone and neglected.

If you want to put out a fire, throw water on it. Well vapor's the proof positive. We're doin' it. Numbers matter!
Welcome to you Mac!! Hope you'll pull up a rocker and stay awhile! Appreciate all the info and time you put in. Do you really think we're making any difference? I'd love to think so, but it sure doesn't seem like it. Still do all the CTA's from CASAA, but it just seems like it makes no difference.

A few more tanks and afc bases I should be good for about 10 years, nic included of course.
With hardware, I'm good for just about forever, but I do want a couple more bf derringer clones. Workin on gettin my nic stashed.

VAPEMAIL!!!!
I got an X box and a dragon.
looks kewl, but the 3 settings wouldn't work well for me either. Glad you're liking them!!

Hope everyone is well, and I'll try to get by here more often...I miss the company and whoopee cushions.
welcome back!! Grab ya a rocker and put your name on it!

So, ordered some Pina Colada flavor. Now, no clue why I ever tried it in the first place but it was amazing. Discontinued. Tried a half dozen other brands since and all sucked. So I'm off to see if I can duplicate it.
I've got some inawera I think pina colada. Haven't tried it yet. if you come up with a great pina colada recipe, lemme know please!!

Another reason I love my REOs. Unscrew bottle, pour juice in, reattach. And now with the super soft squonk bottles they hold between 7-8 mls. Every 4 days or so, slide cotton out, dryburn, slide some more cotton back in. The rest of the time......squonk, vape vape vape vape, squonk..repeat.

Only disavantage on a squonker is changing flavors. Some old flavor in the tube.
Not if you blow it back into the bottle, or into a tissue before you put the new bottle on.

Thx Deba, 'preciate the welcome. The answer is yes. Huge. Vape community's forced the hand of gov and industry. They're duckin' us tryin' to kill our resource. They fear the public and visibility. That's their weakness. They're in their ivory towers and citadels. We're on the street. Mean, hungry and more than ready to have our voices regarded. Not a good formula for them. Gov is in the biz of building government. Works well enough when nobody's lookin'. We'll do what we need to do to continue the preservation of our well being however they label it or wherever they point their fire. This time, no pass. They just don't know it yet (or want to).

Good luck.

:)

I fill once a day, but then i have a 10ml tank

Last stinkie 10/15/2013

That works, too :)

But I just keep about 8 KFs going, all with different flavors, and all on mods. And am a happy tootle puffer! :lol:

And one of the several reasons I still vape 18.

It still bothers me that the date has come and gone and we have yet to hear anything, Not even a comment telling us they extended 30 days. I just can't shake the feeling they are going to intentionally blindside us so we can't argue except by lawsuits.

Well yeah, that's generally the reaction by public and advocacy groups. Seen it all my life. We try to avoid adjudication. But if the favorable quorum can't be found in the legislature we'll have to find it in the courtroom. Vape community's going to have to be watchful and all of us try to sort out where the important battles are and join 'em. Didn't think it would come here to FL but I'm setting time aside for this as it don't smell right. So I'm with you on the blindside impression. Folks need to leave their political affiliations at the door on vaping. Parties take turns being on the wrong side of things when it comes to the public. We shouldn't lose out because of that. Case in point, the "shall" or "may" question regarding public rec's access in FL's "sunshine" law. I'm for preservation of public right. You see [political] parties on both sides of similar questions all over the country. We don't need that kind of no sense. So in that context in states without the means for attorney's to recover costs to file access suits, it's all over for them if they get code like Indiana. Attorney's won't step up to help and the public as a stakeholder is outta luck. You have to fight the battles when they can be won. Watch FL please folks. This is an opportunity on various levels.

Good luck.

:)

p.s. Had to add this…vaping really is a human rights issue.

Yes but not a simple as changing the RTA containing the new liquid out. Some eliquids would require rinsing out the tube depending on the flavoring. Say going from a strong tobacco to a mild watermelon.
Not against squonkers, will likely try one out sometime. However just cleaner to not have half of the RTA/atty in the mod and half external.

Deb I shortened the REO refill even more. I just prefill about half a dozen bottles so it is just unscrew one and screw on another ;)
Jup, there's that too and many do it that way.

Only disavantage on a squonker is changing flavors. Some old flavor in the tube.
Very very little is left in the tube, give it a flick and most is gone. I don't change flavors often, and mine are all somewhat similar, but I don't find even without a flick to the tube that it's more than a few vapes to get the new flavor, no more than any tank I used to use, and maybe even less.

The answer is yes. Huge. Vape community's forced the hand of gov and industry. They're duckin' us tryin' to kill our resource. They fear the public and visibility.
Well that's nice to hear. In your other comment, were you saying that you don't think Indiana's laws will be tested in court? Last I heard they were preparing for a court battle after it went into effect.
