When I went down to 12 mg/ml, it was because of a mixing mistake. Well, I did it again. I mixed based on a recipe I had written down. Then noticed the recipe was based on 48 mg/ml nic. Well, I happen to be using up the last of my old 36 mg/ml nic.

I guess now's a good time to try 9 mg/ml. Why not?
Apparently I mislabeled a bottle of 1000mg/ml as 60 back during the time I was having the mini strokes, don't believe for a minute it was WL's mistake. Went to a bottle of 60mg and was way, well, nic fits with the old calculation. Simply added a guesstimate of the missing nic after using some of the juice and all was fine. If it ain't working for you, just add a little nic.
When I tried to go below 12mg I found I was vaping more so went back up...
When I was dropping the nic, I'd vape more for about three days and then was fine. Think your body/"brain" will tell you where you need to be more than your mind playing games with you. Made the mistake of listening to my (over determined) mind and paid the price. 6-3mg for me is the happy place for me and my family. :lol:
You do not have to be 93 to appreciate a good nap - like one myself sometimes...
I rearely nap. Took one today and feel great. I'm not 93. Yet.

Now I am conflicted. The dark side layout is much better on my Kindle...
There are 3 modes to choose from. E-CigaretteForum Dark didn't float my boat either, but I like the larger fonts of E-CigaretteForum quite a bit more than the default ECF.

Not sure how I like the dark side. May return to the side of light.
I didn't care for it at all. I don't like the default, but it's better than the dark. I realized why the larger font one didn't seem different to me, I have had my screen enlarged on here for a long time, much more than even the larger font one.
Apparently I mislabeled a bottle of 1000mg/ml as 60
Hope you meant 100 mg/ml. lol

Since I am starting to sleep 6 hours at a shot I am really enjoying NOT napping. I am getting so much more done!
So glad that has continued, and wasn't just a fluke! Makes those pillows worth a gold mine!!

@bigbells with your RX a guy was telling me he was getting a great vape out of SS at 500F 80w. I don't know if you've tried it that high he also said when he was at the Vape Shop he tried it against the DNA and he could tell the $100 difference. With Ti I actually can't with the SX's except for the settings I have to use.
I was vaping my SS coil at settings like that in my DNA 200 Reuleaux. I'm not yet able to use my RX 200 Reuleaux for SS at all, because it just stops reading the ohms after a small number of hits in SS mode. The newest update might help with that, I don't know, but I'll wait and see if they fix what might be a charging bug that you told me about with that update.

By the way, if you press towards the negative terminal when removing/inserting batteries in either of the Reuleaux models, you can avoid boogering the battery jackets. When you take up the slack by pressing against that contact the positive end doesn't scrape.

OK do you lock in your resistance once it gets it. The new update as far as I know just changes the font and screws up USB charging will brick your mod if you try. I have noticed some weird things with the resistance too. I locked mine on .28 for my Ti coils. Iam so close to getting an ML they have a hell of a deal going on and it's so tempting, I need one like a hole in the head but at $136 including shipping it's hard to say no I am 2 numbers away from doing it.

Oh and my RX is working just fine with Ti have to use 500F and 25w but I'm getting 2 days on my HG2's but I'm using it in rotation but hitting it alot.Oh and the RX model won't mess up your batteries cause it doesn't have that little white ring like the DNA has to make you avoid putting your batteries in wrong since the DNA does not have reverse battery protection. I can't believe they went back to that.

I really think the ML is a better mod then the DNA. I guess the software is a little tough to figure out since there is no manual with it yet but it does everything the DNA does. It's just the way that it is set up is a little hokey. I also heard that the Uwell Crown is a really good tank. The RBA section is optional but the prebuilt heads are SS316 I believe and you can also build your own. They have them on sale at Vape Royalty

Obligatory sensible economics comments. After reading, just ignore the good advice... like I do:
Getting an ML for $136 won't make the previous one have cost any less. You won't be saving money, you'll be spending $136.

No, I don't lock in the resistance. I think the automatic allowance for variation is 25%, and that's plenty in my opinion. I said it wrong about my RX; it reads 0 resistance (no atomizer) and won't fire at all, with a SS coil after a couple of hits.

Wow that is weird. I did have my center pin stick in the down position. I couldn't get it to read unless I cranked my tank in so hard took pliers to get it out. That seems to have fixed itself. It vapes really well on Ti but these guys are trying to tell me how accurate it is and it's the SX thats not. Theres no way my SX's are 80F off Busardo checked it with his fancy gear and it was as close as you can get the SX that is. I talked to another guy and he said that the Jtech boards all work that way on Ti you have to set them to 500+. I know if it was really 500 my juice would be unvapable. Well if I win Busardo's Christmas stocking I'll never have to buy any thing again (for at least a year)

Oh and your right about the ML thats why I haven't pulled the trigger yet. I only vape Ti and always the same coil so what would I use all those settings for but that Uwell Crown sounds like a really nice tank. I talk to Quantum Mech some and he said that for the price he actually likes it better then the STM. Plus it fills from the top or bottom and the RBA looks really easy to build on also. I don't need one of them either. He said the threads are "Buttery Smooth" and if you are into SS the prebuilt heads are supposed to be good too. He uses the .25's so far hasn't tried the .5's. He said he runs them at 450F 50w.
