I wasn't very happy there for a while. I know that for what people pay, instructions in good English are a day-dream, but nothing wrong with dreaming, hey?
lol yeah, I wish I'd known about youtube videos when I first started vaping! I know you said you couldn't do the hangout, but if you have a microphone even, the hangout is great to use with someone that's helpin ya work out a problem. like bein on the phone with em instead of having to type everything

I posted on the back porch, but I have a hard time hangin' out when hubby is watching TV. The other night I went into another room and had a blast. BUT, in 2 weeks (well, week after next, no week after that..... :blink::facepalm: May 19-23) I will be in Gettysburg at the American Belgian Tervuren National Specialty while hubby goes to Hampton VA to do another show. Tasha and I will be chillin' in the evenings in a motel with free wifi and we WILL be hangin' out! :banana::banana::banana::toast:

Speaking of filtering sludge, I'm assuming that people know to wet the filter down first with plain pg so the flavor isn't just getting stuck in the filter? I realized when I was doing it that that may not be a really obvious trick to know.

Ooooh, when I came back to edit a typo I see that the little vaper emoticon is back. Now if they'll just get a darker skin available I'll be happy with the new software.
:vapor:

I didn't know that, thank you for mentioning it. I made some coffee extract once but never gave it a fair go. Smelled good thought. Glad you got your smilie back! :)


You don't need a camera, and if you have one but don't want to use it, you can turn it off before you go into the chat. All you need is a microphone. And if you don't have that, you can still hear us, but you'd have to type to us.

I'd feel kind of like a peeping Tom. :oops: Used to have a mic but it disappeared. Never had a camera. Maybe I can find the mike. Sorry I'm missing it but glad you guys are having fun.

You could use a cheap tablet. My PC didn't have camera & mic so I used my Nexus 7. It's a great tablet and you can still get them new. Worked great at the hangout.

Amazon.com: Nexus 7 from Google (7-Inch, 16 GB, Black) by ASUS (2013) Tablet: Computers & Accessories

That isn't cheap for us unfortunately.

So my story isn't as big or anything, after all I'm barely 18 and have just recently started vaping.
So about 14 or 15 I started smoking, I don't remember why but one day I just got super stressed, I think it was about all the finals coming up, and alot of them I didn't believe I had a chance to pass. Someone offered a cigarette and I got hooked immediately. It got to the point where I would smoke about 30th packs a day, just to get by. I never truly thought of an alternative. I glanced at nicotine gum and patches, but I was too young to be getting anything that would help me get off of the cigarettes. Eventually a friend of mine told me he had an alternative to smoking but absolutely wouldn't let me know what it was. It was infuriating. Eventually my 18th birthday showed up and he set me up with a vape pen. Taught me everything I needed to know and even went out and used his money to get it, just in the hope I would take to it. Ever since then I've been slowly weening off of cigarettes, I'm finally at only one or two a day. It's incredibly amazing and slowly even becoming a hobby for me. I love it

Welcome to the porch Vincent and congratulations almost getting off the cigarettes! You'll get there. Took me about five months to kick them completely. Really wish vaping had been around when I was 18. You've very lucky and have a great friend!

it would be kinda like me, you hear my voice, but only see my avatar that I have on here. So if you find your mic, feel free to drop in sometime if you feel like it.

I guess it's cheap compared to what mine cost when they first came out. It was a gift from my sister so it didn't cost me anything. Cheap as it gets. :thumb:

I'm going to go get a sausage and egg biscuit and a Rip It. Running the recycling truck today. Y'all have a good one.

edit:

Welcome, Vince

Omg, did you remove the kick ring from your nemi? I got one last year and could not get it to work.
I just discovered that I can use the big o-rings to make fine adjustments to the tube length. :D

If you see this 2legs.
Hows the battery life on the sx mini m going with the temp.
You said it chewed through them , is it still the same and are we talking need to change the batteries 2-3 times a day ?
You know it seems to be getting better. I don't know if it is me slowing down vaping cause I have 2 but if I change them in the morning they last all day. I did notice if I build at .065 they go a little faster. That is at between .08 and .09. My 26awg should be here today and I think that will burn through them a little faster but the flavor is supposed to be great. That is what I'm looking for with nickel and so far have succeeded

Vincent,

A grand welcome from those here that wish we had vaping at your age! My life would have been easier had it been...

We wish you continued success and a 'bakky-free future!
