Phidias celebration sale

[jimho]

Where do you get bulk citric acid from? I've been using vinegar.

Vinegar works but it leaves a residue in the wyck-

1+ what alice said....
Amazon is the cheapest (but watch the shipping)....
I bought my Citric Acid here Now Foods, Citric Acid, 4 oz (113 g) - iHerb.com
I'm pretty sure vitamin shop carries it too
4oz will last a long while but if you can buy alb for less more power to ya....

back from page 65; Ind. Action;
I got a couple of the cartos since Iken was out of the 801 Mini LRs anyway and a couple adapters.. got in on the sale... Man whoever got in on the 801 Mini sale, is lucky.

Does anyone (Yellowman) know when Iken will have more 801 LR Mini's????

So, IA, do you condom fill the 801 carto first ?
I bet you could needle fill from the bottom with the Phid bottle ...

If you're looking for something new and pretty darn amazing to try, pick up some 801 fusion cartomizers and a 510 to 801 adapter from IkenVape. I can't even begin to tell you what a difference it really makes! These things are fantastic. They hold about 1.5ml, or half a Phidias bottle. One filled carto plus a full feed bottle will last as long as your battery, probably longer. I didn't believe all the hype about getting better flavor and vapor but it really is true. I'll do a video soon if I get some free time!

 

[ukeman]

fwiw, you can use the needle bottle from the Phid to fill cartos, from the top, just insert in the sides of the filler.
BTW, i am getting a 2.0 Ohm reading on these 801 Fusion Cartos, and they work great!!
no crummy taste.. clean and smooth lots of vapor... thanks for the tip IA.

That's how I've been refilling them as well. I fill the carto and the Phid bottle. If I'm sticking with one flavor for the day, I'm good to go.

I'm glad you're enjoying them. Watch out with dark juices. They foul them just like they do on any other carto. My TV waffles and bananas foster fusions have already had to be cleaned once.

Look at your local super market for citric acid. It's a common ingredient used in home canning, and most super markets have a little section specifically for home canning supplies.

 

[ukeman]

hmm yeh,
I have been using darker juices (coffee, breakfast sweets, etc) in my Phidias; it seems to call for that somehow; the deep colors of the wood and all... hmm
Oh well at that price you can get 3 or 4, to 1 atty.

you must have missed that the last avatar was from Skeletons in the Closet,
the one before was Tales from the Golden Road (short lived)- there was a picture of Buckwheat before that for a long time, but my wife commented that smeone might take exception to it ..
..and the recently added dancing bears in my sig....

And of course the name on my first phidias - "first one's named sweet Anne Marie she's my heart's delight...."
And I already know the name of the one on that's on the lathe right now- hint- she's fine and fair, good looks, god knows,with coal dark hair...

And didn't I post somewhere that all my spare cash was going to Furtur tickets....

I'd have thought that would have given it away...
now you've made me feel like it's some sort of Freemasons handshake...... ;-)

Just cause I'm sarcastic as hell doesn't mean I can't be a DeadHead...
It's cool....

:

I'd better know the name of your second Phidias, considering my son's name is Sampson (p added to differentiate...)

You're good- that's the third time you caught me....I think you are a closet dead head....

nothing in the closet about it my friend!

 

[Yellowman1972]

he had a shipment of 801 but slb sent him the full size ones instead. if and when they are coming I will let all you guys know. I havent heard any psychic screams of my new phidias being born so fo must be hard at work. I have been getting the itch, haven't had to go without a phidias this long since I owned one.

 

[jimho]

nothing in the closet about it my friend!

now you're talking- too bad they don't allow animated gif's in the sig!

add: I was chatting with another obvious dead head a week or so ago about a GD Vaper group.. problem is it would be a contradiction in terms to have a private anything exclusive to dead heads...

My Cisco LR 306 atty w/ translucent drip tip arrived today

My 306 seems like a cooler vape than my LR 510. Does anyone else notice this?

Are you sure it's a real cisco? Is it stamped cisco on threads? Should meter out to 1.5 and be a flame thrower on a Feedimus and be hotter than the cisco LR510. I use all the LR Ciscos

 

[dspin]

Thanks, just ordered 2 of those on 11-24, 901 & 801. Just got my shipping notice

sorry for the hazy photo but best a non techie could do at the moment.... this is the "other" 901 adapter.

First i've seen Fono ok an adapter so i tried it, it works fine with a 2.0 LR 901 ikenvape.
In fact if you want tons of vapor from this spicey Phidias, this atty gives it and not hot whatsoever. In fact i couldn't find a use for it on my "other" 18650 mods as they aren't spicey enough; i have to use 1.9 LR 901's for those...
that is the uniqueness of the Phidias; it hits like no other....

hope i attached it right.

I use pretty much nothing but Cisco LRs ... both 510 and 306. It should be the other way around IMO.
I find the 306 a bit hotter, but I like the 510 for better flavor.

Make sure its stamped Cisco on the bottom of the 306. The 510s don't seem to be stamped, but they have the big gold lettering on the side (the new batch has smaller lettering in gold "LR 1.5"

No kidding! I could use mine for a weapon and do some serious damage.

Yuppers - got it from Vapor Flow (the 2 atty, 1 drip dip deal). Stamped 'Cisco LTD LR 306' on the bottom. Of the two, one has some sort of blockage / misalignment and won't fit on the Phidias feed tube. So I've only been able to use one on the Phidias and it's definitely cooler than the LR 510 I have from FSUSA. I still like it, mainly foir the shorter length and visability, but the LR 510 is warmer for me. I can't accurately measure the ohm since my analog multimeter has terrible accuracy!! (HV atty measure .5ohm - pretty ridonkulous!)

update.....isaac has a shipment of 801 semi's LR 2.0 ohm. they are going to be available probably on friday. they are new, not the old semi's and are only 1mm larger than the mini's, he had them resized because people were having issues with their driptips hitting the bridge or melting. this new batch for all intent and purpose will be like the mini's in all ways cept for being 1mm larger. if you don't have any....get some. they are IMHO the best atty to run on the phidias at 3.7v. I have a serious man crush on these things. will keep ya posted on any other developments!!

I can just get the regular 510 to 801 adapter for these?

Yep, but you need an 801 drip tip. For some reason I didn't think of that when I ordered mine from IKV and now I'm stuck with the included whistle tips until I get an order in with someone else for the 801 tips (IKV doesn't appear to carry 801 tips).

 

[dspin]

First thing I would do, would be buy a decent meter. How can you check your batts and attys w/one that doesn't work
