GUys TY so much for your patience with me the last 5 days or so.

I GOT MY SL ACCOUNT BACK!

Myrany, that's GREAT! So glad you got your "stuff" back! lol ;)

Any way to backup all your hard work "locally", and/or copy it to your home PC?

Here's to hoping you never lose it again.

Cheers... :toast:

3rd life...

Good One. :)

Not too easy to backup to my local drive without breaking the TOS and losing the account as a result. I can however make copys of my creations and send them to an alternate character which is what I will be doing over the next few weeks. Yeah it is going to take that long, the account has been a content creator in SL for 9.5 years. The real life monthly income from this is not what it once would have been but hey it covers my vape budget.

Hey I made it through this mess without smoking and without putting my fist through the wall. Life is good!

Life IS good. And you can create some more modern content to sell too. I saw a ape ail on Discovery that talked about cyber life, and there was one lady there that earned over $100,000 a year in SL content sales. She also met her husband there :)


Oops! Back to the topic of vaping....
I've stepped the spring break some more and will try it as soon as I'm finished with the delish creme de mynth I have in this atty now.

That's scary! Was it da PV or topper?

Good question Iffy... it wasn't the Evod tho, I inspected it and put it on the Vamo, resistance was fine, worked fine. I snatched the Magneto apart so fast, no time to look and see if I'd put it together wrong or something like that... did notice the batt was put in correctly just before dumping it out.

I inspected all the parts and everything looked normal, except on the 510-eGo adapter the center pin was pushed in enough that the silicone insulator was puckered out around the edges. I mic'd the center pin on the Magneto, and it is smaller than the center opening on the adapter, and other 510 connectors, so it shouldn't have been touching the outer edge. Something created a dead short tho, and I didn't know it until the mod got hot... which caught me by surprise that it happened so quickly.

I later adjusted the Magneto back to '350 size, and it works fine... needless to say, I'm very hesitant to try and use it in '650 again.

I don't know much about the Magneto but I am wondering if something like what I noticed with my chi you clone is happening to you.

THe Chi has an adjustable center pin in the 510 connector. Sometimes when screwing on devices or changing batteries it moves. then basically the device auto-fires weather it is locked or not.

What I do is take the bottom cap off. Screw on the topper then screw in the bottom cap to snug it up. If it is missing by a mile I take off the topper and top cap and manually adjust the pin. A very tiny adjustment is the difference between a well functioning device/lock and one that will not shut off until it goes into meltdown.

VAPEMAIL!!
From viper-vapes.
I have a mini Davide and both styles of HyperTanks (fluid flask and glassomizer BCC)
Also a cole of mouth pieces and an airflow controller.
So far have checked out the Davide and the fluid flask...
And the airflow controller....
Put some of the Lemon Breezy in both....
The Davide:
Comes apart real easily, except the part you take off to fill!! It took some jar grips to get that separated because there is no knurling on the device at all.
Then the bottom blocks the path to the tank... You need a needle to fill, or lots of patience!!
Sucked on it to get it started... Dry hit second vape
Set it aside for 15 min...
Puff, puff, dry hit!!!
Suck, puff, puff, dry hit!!!
Took out a wick, and now no dry hits.
Good rich flavor from the liquid.

Not sure it's going to be a go-to tank. Hard to fill, but performance is good.

Fluid Flask.
Take off the bottom, fill, suck, vape.
No dry hits, but very airy and not much flavor.
Use the airflow adjuster... 5 min to get it adjusted to my draw...
Good rich flavor and no dry hits...
This is a good tank for an all day vape because it holds 5ml

Both use the same Kanger wicks, so I know it's not the wick on the Davide that causes the dry burn, but the design.

More if the Glassomizer acts any different. :)

Hi Everyone!

Here is a news story from my neck of the woods. Just the typical BS we (and vendors) have to put up with here.

Something rather odd happened and I wondered if this was a withdrawal from analogs. I keep thinking there'll be no withdrawal symptoms with vaping, but of course there's still the other 3999 chemicals my body is suddenly not getting, lol.

I found an e liquid I REALLY like. So I ordered a large bottle and have been happily watching the mail. And it's been snowing up north and it got snowed in at a post office for 3 days before the USPS sent it south. In the tracker it says it was delivered today, but it wasn't. And I still have lots of other liquids in my nic level. But I stuck my hand in the mail box and felt all around just in case I've gone blind and it really WAS there but I just couldn't see it. Then I went onto the front porch and moved the plants around and looked in the empty flowerpots just in case it had grown legs and climbed into one. Then I realized my heart was beating fast and I could see how stupid I must look and I felt like a ...... addict, lol. I mean, I've NEVER done that looking for a ciggy before and 20 days ago I was a 2PD girl. What was that about? An anxiety attack (to which I'm NOT prone)? Some sort of weird chemical withdrawal? I know it wasn't needing the e liquid becasue I have plenty of other flavors with nic in them. And the other thing is I'm craving food and eating more than usual, which is weird and I don't want to gain weight. Anyone had anything similar? I mean I get odd moments when I pick up my PV and then feel about for the lighter and start to panic when I can't find it, then I realize and laugh about it. But that thing with the e juice was REALLY weird...

I also had a moment gassing up the car - stuck the gas thingie in the gas tank then went to empty the ashtrays while it pumped the gas (my usual routine). Didn't have any ashtrays to empty. Kind of panicked and started searching the (clean) car for SOMETHING to throw away. It sounds silly, lol, but it really was kind of a freaky experience.
