Yeah-but ... I resisted all the fanboy's over there ... your view on it ... to me ... is more credible. You dang little angel you. Robino1 was the only other person I thought was impartial. She said it was pretty good but still slightly less, for her, than a KFL.

I'm just hesitant to invest that amount of $'s in something that takes store bought coils. I don't want to invest in hundreds of coils in case the FDA thing comes through in its worst. And I don't know what the availability of store bought coils is going to be like in the coming months. I'd not like having a Kabuki a year from now and replacement coils are really pricey or maybe not even available.

I certainly wouldn't mind a plug-and-vape topper, we shall see.
What he said. I'm sticking to rebuildables. Just butting in with my two pennies.:rolleyes:

Sorry to report that Trip my 2 YO chocolate lab was put to sleep today. His condition worsened over the past week to the point that he could hardly stand or walk. His vet was still working with other neuro-vets to find another alternative treatment but was unsuccessful in offering anything. It was a hard decision but I really think for his sake it was the best thing. Thanks for all of your well wishes and prayers.
I have not caught up with the several pages I am behind, but when I read this I had to stop and send my deepest condolences. Under the circumstances, I think you made the right decision. Quality of life is the key, and when that is compromised or gone, well, at least we can help our pets. That does not help the pain we feel nor the hole in your heart, just remember one of my favorites - Gone from your life but never from your heart. Trip is romping freely and healthy with some really great pets that preceeded him, my Spock included. I am sure he got a warm welcome because pets just know. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

You and Iffy must share the same philosophy and it's a good one. He's where I first heard about the rainbow bridge. If you do I can't think of anyone better to emulate. Iffy is a good man, makes you one just by association. ;)

I don't even know what a billet box is but, congratulations on wining one. Even if you had to fight for it. :)
didn't do as much fighting as I did hiding! Thanks!

Forgot to quote, but I think the jury is out on the addictive quality of nic. Like many other chemicals, it seems to vary depending on the user's physiology and the level/duration of exposure. I know this is not a popular opinion...:(. Please, don't shoot!
I agree, some that come to vaping can drop the nic very quickly. I haven't been able to drop mine without climbing the walls. But don't feel any real need to.

Strange how cigs were addictive before the chemicals were added....
not nearly as bad I don't think, and much of that was likely the process of smoking.

DebaDooDoo, thanks for the multi quote advice. I think my issue is the feature is not available in TapATalkie[emoji317] [emoji317]
I wll double check on my home pooter[emoji193]
yw hun, dunno nuttin bout tappytalky, so hope it works on yur pooter.

Sorry to report that Trip my 2 YO chocolate lab was put to sleep today.
(((((((((((((((((EB))))))))))))) I'm so sorry darlin. But I do like to picture him happy, healthy and running through fields.

What astonishes me is how the creator/manufacturer, Zen~ (House of Hybrids), was able to optimize the design to such a wonderful end! I love that it's practically mindless,
so glad you're loving them!!!

my order from Madvapes to celibrate my 3rd year came in
Carbon 40, Silver, DNA 40, 40 Watt
EHPro eDrip T1 RDA - Green
EHPro eDrip T1 RDA - Blue.
Yay!!! And congrats!!!

Speaking of P3s mine shipped today. YIPPEE!!!!!
Yay!!!

Well, I'm going a different direction. I have a pretty blue Microstick V2 clone on the way. It's sitting in Chicago right now.
Yay!!!! Everyone is getting new goodies! And my BB should be here sat or Mon he said, but I don't have a tracking for it.

Wish y'all were closer; you could try mine. And I'm stockpiling coils ..
we can try it in April!!! :)

I received a message from DHL that the Clouper mini plus TC mod I won in the big contest should be here Monday!!!!!
Yay!!!

Woo hoo! So many are getting new toys it's exciting!

For me, I figured out long ago it is the "action of smoking" I am addicted to, not so much the nic. I am confident I can lower my nic over time (been at 6 for almost 3 years and have had some 3), but the action of smoking just hits my happy place. I love vaping!

EB,

There are ever so many here that are either weeping real tears or those of the heart with you.

Just know that Trip trusted you and you did what you thought best for him. Have no regrets for your loving decision!

The best of both worlds. A microstick sise-by-side configuration plus the ability to use a larger topper like a Kayfun.

Next, I'm gonna go for broke and get an XvoStick clone.
That paired with an HG2 battery should be awesome.

One thing for those that go looking in to it. The rebuildable deck does NOT have to be built subohm. I know many of the shops say this thing is sub ohm only. That is NOT true. There are even premade above one ohm coils for it.

Have a couple, and yes, easy to build - to whatever value you like. I build mine about 1.8, airflow all the way down. And the factory coils can be rebuilt, easier than single coil Kanger types.
