I've had to resort to desperate measures with my wife.I don't print off my receipts,so no paper trail,and when some of the stuff shows up,it's either "contest wins" or 'stuff i ordered months ago,glad it finally showed up" haha.I even had a vendor i used to deal with a lot agree to not put an invoice in the box to help out with the contest story haha.
From that perspective, I may the luckiest man around. My wife of 30 years has never used tobacco and doesn't vape. Yet for the past two years (ever since she became aware of the FDA's dooming proposal) she's taken the attitude: "Make dang sure you're stocked for the rest of our lives!" She doesn't want me going back to smoking, and she knows from past quit attempts that I'm utterly insufferable without my nic.

I think I'll keep her. :)

I saw on FT home page on their Sunday Sale blurb and wanted to order batteries.
Can someone tell what time the Sunday Sale 6/5 on fasttech home page actually starts the discount? Midnight? Their time/our time??

Wife is going to Kill me.

:oops:


Lol, I've got the exact opposite problem. My better-half nags me -to- buy more stuff. So do my "middle aged" kids who were shocked/amazed back when I stopped smoking and started vaping. Every few days one of them hits me with "Are you sure you have everything you might need?" :)

I hear you, my CC is screaming no more, no more! LOL But I actually think I am done buying and ready for whatever Yippee!
Yep me too might get a couple of things from some upcoming going out of business sales.
But need nothing nor even want much of anything vape wise.

wife who had quit smoking years ago is the one who got me into vaping. She does not vape but fully supports my vape addiction.

The $12.98 one is what I ordered 2 of. I'm excited to try it. I might need something smaller to stealth it, though. I'll hafta look sand see what's out there. Maybe a tube mod or something.

I've been vaping mine on a Pico all day. Really enjoying it. My wife is using hers on an istick 40w and it looks great. Istick 40's are enclosed batteries though. Stocking up on those doesn't make much sense at this point. I have 4 of them and really like them. Not looking forward to the day when they all die and there's nowhere to get any more...baaaaah....stoopid dum FDA

I use one on a Pico for a pocket carry out-n-about setup. Although single coil it provides great flavor. Only drawback is the juice capacity but that's the tradeoff for its compact size.

I don't mind small capacity. I never vape over 15 watts and only like single coil builds. I dabbled in sub ohm stuff a while back and it isn't for me. The biggest tanks I've ever owned are regular kayfuns (Lites and 3.1s). I'm a happy simpleton with vape stuff.

Pico has become my absolute favorite mod. Does everything I need it to do (and many things I'll never do) with great form factor. I'm going to buy 10 if them before d day.

Yea. I want something with a replaceable battery. Everything I have is big box mods as that's how I've been vaping - high power, low resistance, and big clouds. That's fine for at home. My REOs are built to like .3 or .4 with medium clouds. Can't do that with my new job. Need to stealth. MtL isn't a problem for me, hence the kayfuns. I'm debating on either a Reo mini or provari. Dunno.

My wife never smoked either, and she was the one who suggested I switch to vaping. When I started stockpiling two years ago she asked "how many of those things do you need?" I explained to her what kind of personality changes occur when I don't have nicotine, and the fact that folks really were trying to make it all go away. She must really love me because her thinking became, whatever it takes to keep me off the smokes. Of course when I laid out the math for her, and explained how far the money spent would go instead of up in smoke, she was all in. When the deeming was released she even said, "did you buy that freezer yet?" :lol:

Thats exactly why i continue to vape 0 nic 5 months later.

I don't want to be stressed and be looking for a pack of cigarettes. It us just too darn hard to get off them.

I finally got these delivered yesterday. I bought three mainly for my wife but after doing a 1.25ohm build on one today I decided I'm keeping it. Hits excellent and nice and stealthy:

$12.98 Kayfun Mini V3 Styled RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 2ml / 316 stainless steel + glass at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I will be ordering 10 more just cuz. One 1 of the 3 had a broken o-ring upon arrival. No biggie. Found the replacement in the little bag of o-rings they include.

I'm eyeballing these right now. Just waiting for a review to come out. Fits on a Pico and hold 3.5mls. The downside to the v3 mini is 2mls. Easy top fill but I prefer larger tanks.

$20.88 Kayfun V3 Plus 1.5 Styled RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 3.2ml / 316 stainless steel + glass / 22.5mm dia. at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping


Another RTA I'm interested in is this one. A bit more expensive than others but I've heard good things so far.

$19.02 Authentic Wotofo Serpent Mini RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 3ml / stainless steel + glass at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
I have 2 Kayfun mini V3 styled ($12.98 ones) and 2 of the Wotofo Serpents on the way. I bought the serpents for my Picos. I can't wait to try them out. I ordered them and more stuff on the Memorial Day sale

I quit smoking between 1981 to 1992 and just ended up picking it up again. So I know what you mean. :mad:

I build at around 0.5 ohms and the Pico was just perfect for me. 75 watts, ultra-compact size, (even smaller than my Kato mechs) and the fact it used 18650 batteries were the major selling points for me. I only bought two to start with but will likely get a couple extra, at just $27 each it's not a huge investment. I do think you'd like the Serpent mini as well, it pairs up well with the Pico.

The full sized Serpent pairs off nicely with the Kato box mods.

Looks like it is stupid simple to build.

Exactly.

About two weeks Someone started a thread about 0 nic, and a few said vaping 0 nic what's the point.

I tried to kick the stinky things to the curb for 20 years. A year and a half ago i went out to eat with family and left my vape at home. At that time i was down to 3 mg/ml.

A NASTY argument broke out and bummed 2 smokes and I was hooked again.

There will be no repeat performance this time
