Cleaning out the trac-ball contacts was always a hassle for me. I use an optical mouse, which I have had for years. My only hassle with it is that the PG/VG drips get under it, and i then have to wipe off the bottom and the desk area where i use it. Minimal hassle, compare to the alternative. Just switched to paper towels. Much better for catching kanthal scraps and wicking, just toss it.

I use an evoluent Vertical Mouse 3. It is an extremely high resolution optical mouse, so a movement of only an inch covers my entire 25" monitor screen from side to side. It was recommended to me by my doctor as it is extremely gentle on arthritis and Repetitive stress injury situations. Expensive up front but my last one held up for nearly 5 years even though I am a gamer and really put a ton of stress on a mouse.

I use one of those microfiber cloths rather than paper towel. Works great and washable so cheaper long run. If you watch the sale bins Walgreens often has 10 packs of these cloths for $5 or so.

I use one too, one of the best things ever invented. I used to gum up ball type mice regularly.

Sent with no malice and not a whole lot of forethought from my new Galaxy Tab 4. Thanks Santa!

Posted about this out back, but it occurs to me that it's vape-related ... Does anybody know where to find a "Jacqui Wrap?" It's a purely decorative coil-y thing that winds up a tube-shaped mod to and around the tank. I googled it, but no luck.

this is the closest I can think of www.jwraps.com La Vamitresse wears one.

You pick your mod from a drop down menu.

It might not be a case of me going through the heads more quickly; it might be the fact that I'm using only one clearo and head at a time for all of my vaping. We'll see how many ml of joose I'm able to put through this latest head, averaging about 6 ml per day.

I'd be very interested in your findings!

On another note my aunt has been smoke free for 3months with lozenges but there tearing her up inside only at 4mg and has given me the greenlight to get her a kit.
I'll be getting the same Aspire premium kit Igot for my Dad but Im not sure what Nic. strength to get her 6mg per ml sounds too weak and Im weary about re-introducing hand to mouth habits again. I guess I could get her an 8-10mg and see what she says than make her a batch of reducer 50/50 non nic flavorless. Then I got to teach her how to use it over the phone. My Dad just got another co-worker to make the switch :)

When I decided to buy a notebook computer I thought using a trackpad instead of a mouse would be awkward.

Now after many years of using the trackpad using a mouse I think would be like trying to wrap a coil while wearing boxing gloves.

I hear you Wolf since I moved Laptop #1 upstairs and I'm using Laptop#2 downstairs I keep reaching for my track ball These touchpads are ok but I like the track ball.

Well I finally got some peppery nic. I used some I mixed up in June and just been sitting on the table room temp. Sure as well you know it was peppery. Wasn't in June. Just dumped 300ml of 6mg stuff I made out. I like the 100mg right out of the fridge most of it is in the freezer but I keep a stock in the fridge too. Just shake it up and even though it is 50/50 it mixes right up.

You know I can't figure something out. I wrap a 1.5 microcoil and it tastes best to me between 10-11w. I read about people running these at 25w and I can't for the life of me understand it. Is there something I am missing? I don't even have anything that goes above 20 and sometimes I will crank mine up to 12 but only for a few puffs. I can't imagine running it at 25 even with the air flow on my Kanger that would be a headache waiting to happen. Confused

I just quit the cigs 8 weeks ago and started vaping instead. I'm new to this forum and just wanted to say hello to all my fellow *vintage vapers*! Hope you have room fo rone more on the porch?

Rotowoman, I had my first cig at 14 and last at 61. If someone had told me a year ago I could do this, I never would've believed them. For me, the key was finding the right set-up and the right juice. I suspect that's true for most, so hang in there and you'll find what works for you.

Welcome to the Porches, Charming! pick a spot, climate, & view & have a seat!
