Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part Four

How did you do that?!

Let us know what happens if you can. The sale is good through the weekend. I'm not sure if I should try.

For years, my wireless provider offered refurbished phones online. Someone would return a phone they got & didn't like, or dropped & broke the screen & got a new one because they had insurance. They got repaired & resold as refurbished. A Note 2 showed up on the site, I had an upgrade offer available & I jumped on it. I think mine was a dropped one, I found some little scratches on a bottom corner. I've bought refurbished phones from them about 4 or 5 times now, but checking the site lately, I'm not seeing refurbished deals like they used to have. They are all certified refurbished & much more expensive.
I buy blem mods when available, too. Only had one, from hana modz, that was just trash. It should never have been sold, even as a blem, so won't chance it from them again.

That's a pretty setup!

Nice looking pair.

 

[Kaezziel]

that's purdy. Hard to tell from the pic, is that pink (say no) or purple?? lol

It's purple! I'm thinking about getting it and getting a Boreas to put on it.

And if that is the 6X I read they had some kind of accident in their factory and the chinese vendors aren't getting them on time. One thing is they just keep coming out with new mods. Been 3 already this year.

I heard that, too. Not sure what happened, but they're running behind on getting them out... I've not heard anything about timeframes yet.

Anyone here have a beard?

After I retired I grew a beard, I tend to vape with my mod vertical, close to my chin. Lately I've been getting beard hairs from just under my bottom lip caught in the slight gap between the tank and the drip tip. Only happens with Protanks. It's kind of annoying, not to mention painful. Guess I could hold the mod more horizontal but I'm used to the other way.

Go my bottles yesterday, and last night/this morning got a gallon of 100mg nic broken down into 8 oz. and 4 oz. bottles. Took it outside for good ventilation, spread newspaper so I wouldn't have to worry about making a mess, and went at it. Filled each bottle to the brim even to the point of overflowing to keep air out. Think I'll wrap the bottles in tin foil before placing them in the freezer, though I have no idea is that's really necessary.

Stick 'em in old socks ... keeps them from clanking around in the freezer.

No beard here (just won't grow in right), but you could try wrapping a bit of tape around that gap to close it up and prevent your hair from getting caught. There may be other options, as well, but that's the simplest thing that I can think of.

Maybe you need to style your beard to keep it out of the way.

Man, that sounds like hard work. How did you pour it out from a gallon bottle?

Hope you didn't get any mosquitos diving into your nic.

Ha. No mosquitos. I ordered four 1-liter bottles because I knew a gallon jug would be hard to handle. Not difficult at all, just took a little time.

Bubble wrap will protect the glass some.

Well day 2 with this tank. On tank 4 kind of drinks juice but I'm using 50/50. So far I love it using it on 4 pips occasionally 3. Haven't even tried the smaller air. The AF is just right for me. I have discovered when you close the juice flow don't close it too tight hard to get it open again. You can change AF with the tank on and fill it with the tanks on. Wicks great for me with it open 2 complete turns. No problems with leaking so far and you can vape the juice right to the bottom. It has a good amount of vapor but not too much. I actually love the drip tip it comes with. I might get a couple of clones when they get them sorted out to which are good and which are not. It takes a little more power on TC then the STM 30J at 425F. The STM I only need 22J at 425F. Flavor is great. A little different to build, I can see why PB wraps the wire around the screw I used to on the STM's just put it through one side which is what I tried with this and if I had a little sticking out I just bent it up against the screw but the deck has a ledge that sticks out making it very hard to do. It also won't trap the wire with 26awg you have to pull it in unlike the STM I think 24 might. Easy to wick. Really solid of course. SS316L on TC works great, Ti was a little difficult. The build deck is tighter to work on then the STM. I do think that next time I fill it I will pull the deck out and lube up those 2 Orings again. It's a pretty tight fit and don't want to mess them up when I close the AF. I think for this price they could've included a spare glass tank.

Either socks or bubble wrap, like has already been said. Or, put them back in the box they came in and use the box and the carboard dividers to protect them.

That'll work. And, it's cool looking.

Okay, just jumpin right in here........
The nic is here, the nic is HERE!!!
No signing either. That's a good thing because I don't think they would have liked mine.

On a somewhat related subject, I wrote to a flavoring supplier and asked about long term storage. The reply was over 6 months, glass containers but do not freeze. Customers in Fl. who don't have a/c do refrigerate but as with the other ingredients, wait for room temp and then shake well before mixing. (PM me for more info. )

I don't like the stainless steal ones I have. it gives my lip a rash and I don't like that.
so I use these:
$6.76 V.I.P. Rose PC Flat Mouthpiece Long 510 Drip Tip (5-Pack) 5-pack - 75mm / black at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
check the options, and you can get some really great colors/styles
