Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part Three

[FlamingoTutu]

My parents quit smoking when my brother and I were little. When Mom-s sister visited, Mom would sometimes have one, and we would snitch on her. They finally played the game by putting an empty carton on top of a cabinet.

I guess I fibbed. My Mom did ever so occasionally have a cigarette when I was very little. I think I saw her smoke twice and never once after I hit the big double digits in age.

I do remember they'd have parties once in a while and people would smoke in the house. What I do not remember is it smelling horrible back then. Now it almost makes me, like many people, gag when I smell cigarette smoke. I wonder if that's because of all the junk they add to them now or because we don't smoke anymore.

Probably a little of both.

Have you seen the new player in Temp Control. Your friend bsuardo has a good 1st impression of it.

Mike, where did you see Phil Busardo say something about it? I subscribe to his videos on YouTube and haven't seen anything where he talks about it.

In previous reviews for TC mods, Busardo has said that it's not very good if a device can't handle nickel coils below 0.1 ohms. That new Joyetech mod has a lower limit of 0.2 ohms for nickel coils, according to the link.

Yes I noticed that and with this nickel wire it seems good the lower you can go to avoid a bazillion wraps.

Maybe Metal wants to savor the moment and enjoy the unwrapping...

Before I got this job, I never realized how many people go absolutely nuts over their trash. I had this one guy pestering me today I told him it's "garbage day", not "garbage hour" or "garbage minute".

Metal, we want the whole unboxing video within the hour.

Too late to get the video. I do have the results:

My first replaceable battery mod, an IPV Mini2. And it's smaller than I thought it would be, which is good. Not much bigger than a 30 watt iStick. I had no idea which way to put the battery in but I guessed right the first time.

I ordered a 50ml bottle of RY4 from the #1 man in my life, Mr Vape, and got what looks like two 30ml bottles. 70% VG should have this place fogged up in no time.

Some coils, cause I still have a little noob in me.

Couple batteries and a holder that has a tee tee shaped opening.

30ml Halo Tribeca and a free sample of "Twisted Java".

And 30ml of 6mg RY4 from that fun lovin' gal, Crystal. They sent me 18mg in my last order so this is a freebie they sent to make up for it. Very pleased with their service regarding that. If I vaped 18mg, I would die.

Empty 30ml bottle to mix 0mg and 6mg together for my preferred 3mg.

Should have a couple more RY4 flavors arrive some time this week.

How about something a little different tonight?

Very true, I sincerely apologize, I was just kidding but I can see how it could be offensive. Sorry

Edit: nice haul!

I'm starting to feel like Dr. F could turn out to be a liability. He seems to be spewing 'common sense' guesses instead of sticking to science. I think the funding he's gotten and his good reputation with the vaping community may have gone to his head and swelled it a bit.

If he's got any real science behind his guesses, he'd better put those out there pretty quick! When asked about his guesses that were expressed as dire warnings, he seems to be back-peddling. Not looking good for his reputation and trustworthiness.

Pretty sure semi was just messin with ya hun.....nuttin to apologize for!

I agree. He is only human, but it very well could be he got out of his area of expertise on this. But yeah that can be a real problem for us.

 

[clnire]

Yea, I figured semi was messing with me but doesn't hurt to make sure no offense was taken. Dang, sometimes I am just too darn nice!

What I got from it is to hit a new coil just once in a well-ventilated area, and wash and dry-burn a coil only minimally. When I was using silica wicks, I would dry burn and watch the smoke and smell it. Not advisable.

Nice order! I've been wanting some of those silicone battery covers but they are all too big to work on an 18490. Where did you get yours?

You have an incoming PM. Don't give up on him yet! I think he made some valid points in his post Dry-burning metal coils: is it a good thing? It seems he is a vaper, or at least was, and likes to be on the safe side of things. Sounds like he's taken a lot of flack for what he said in the interview and that's only from the vapers.
