I asked this in another thread, but I gotta ask it here also...

In American history has another industry (that has taken off like this one) been squashed like this one?
Artisan Cheese
Organic Food
Dietary Supplements
Toothpaste
soap and cosmetics
cancer cures
<That substance that cannot be mentioned on these forums>

I must be able to furnish proof I bought 'it' from a licensed PA vendor who paid the 'wholesale' tax.

Well then they need to collect all the tobacco, alcohol, etc. tax they have lost since the beginning of them getting statehood. Makes about as much sense as this.

What power?

Under 10W. After a dry burn and new wick I drop to 8 watts for a while until the coil starts to lose efficiency. When I have to up to 10W it's time for a new wick and coil clean.

I recharged the new VTC4's for the second cycle last night and started vaping the RX200S again about 8pm. It's 9:30am the next morning and I'm back down to 1/4 battery.

I think it's the buck-boost converter using approximately the same power to reduce the voltage or boost it. It may just be the current draw from the process eating battery power regardless of the level you vape at. Buck is supposed to be easier on battery power since the atomizer is only pulling 2.1A at 3.4v.

I get longer life out of the Smok Koopor Plus 200W vaping at low wattage on two Sony VTC4's. It goes from morning one day until late afternoon the next.

... perhaps inventory your stuff on paper, sign & date the inventory, and have it notarized. Worst case scenario, you have the list as proof of purchase prior to the effective date of the new bullhooey regs. Just a thought...

<donning anti-vaping posse hat & badge> Well, Mr. Mike, your inventory list here qualifies you as a distributor. Now please write us a check for 40% of total value. I'll even give you a break in that you can subtract the tax you already paid.

<What Boss? OK!>

Sorry Mr. Mike, the governor says no breaks!

    Something doesn't sound right there. I can go all day on a single 18650 at 1.5 & 13 watts. My Hex's go for 4 days on dual batts withe same settings. And I'm not using one exclusivly. I usually have 2 going. But using just 1 it still goes a couple of days.

    The corrupt, anti- small business, anti-vaping, idiot Governor of Indiana has been selected as VP candidate. Somebody shoot me.

    Yep, heard that last night on top of the France killings. We are Screwed with a capitol S.
