I haven't been around for awhile but I'm back, though I did promise the S.O. that I won't spend as many hours a day online as I used to!
Good to see you! I hope all is well with eveyone!

Good to see U2! Wait, Bono is here???
It's nice to see so many familiar people here! (I actually avoided visiting ECF for awhile because I was afraid it'd just be full of new people. Great to see people here that appreciate how great vapers have it today.
Woah. You may not remember me, but I DEFINITELY remember YOU! Welcome back, dog tongue.
Switched, another great post. Should time permit, I hope to be able to reply to some of your observations, which are, once again, brilliant.
As a newer than you vaper, I'm honored to have both of you here.

I just lost a significant response to this observation. We had a brief power outage and poof, everything was gone. I am not about to re-type the whole thing LOL.
In the day we had great discussions/interactions where we readily shared information amongst us. We rarely see this any more. I am not sure where or when the change took place but it has. I doubt that the vaping community (beginners) these days are smarter then we were, although it seems a lot suffer from this delusion. A lot of thought/time went into these exchanges. They were exchanges where everyone participated and nurtured each other. It was a win win for all involved. We carried out these exchanges without the intent implied or otherwise of retribution. It felt good.
As with this thread (portions of) you can't IMHO progress into the future without knowing where you have been. There are a lot of the basics that are simply thrown out the window
not is this thread particularly but in general.Anecdote...
At our first Canadian Vapefest last year there was a table set up next to mine (juice vendor) I asked the owner why he used sucralose in his liquids (a no no). He denied using it. Artificial sweeteners give of a distinct smell when vapourized. I come to find out later that he may have been misguided wrt the ingredients he used, where I believe he was using TFA's liquid sweetener (which is sucralose) but not labelled as such. <--- This is not the anecdote.
At a round table that evening during the course of the conversation, I was once again exchanging with a new juice vendor who used Ethyl Maltol and Malic Acid/vinegar in his liquids. I asked him why? He said trade secret. I stated I don't want to know your secret sauce recipe, we are all vendors here having a discussion. But you should be able to answer the Q with a simple word. He couldn't. Yet he was a juice maker, both are used as "buffers" in liquids, one for imparted sweetness, the other as a PH balancer. It is IMHO if you are selling liquids to the public, you should at least know things that you are doing, not merely replicating someone else's recipe.
At the same round table I apologized to Zen for saying on ECF he was full of crap wrt the Zen2 function (the battery floats in the tube). When I explained why, he stated I was right with the conclusions I had drawn. That being said I did not posses the whole info. Zen is a PHD in Electrical Engineering and a brilliant mind, some find him pompous and arrogant. I have met very few doctors in my life that weren't. However, he held court that evening and we exchanged at length Zen and I. I still do not fully grasp his explanation, but conceded he knew what he was doing (because it works). Nonetheless everyone was in awe wrt the conversation that took place that evening. The information that was shared was priceless, Zen was holding court and everyone was listening. A 4hr convo cannot be redacted in a mere few lines but Zen believes in open source vice everyone sending cease and desist letters. That being said, there is nothing wrong with improving someone else's idea and marketing it as your own. That is what open source is all about. There are rules that govern open source and as long as you maintain the integrity of the intent in OS, all is golden. The industry would not be where it is today without the OS concept and pioneering carried out by our predecessors.
I do not wish to derail this thread any further, I only participated to share the following thought. One cannot move forward without knowing where they have been In my most humble opinion.
Switcher again I agree. We just got out of an industry (cigarettes) that didn't disclose the ingredients they used. When I use a product I want to know whats in it and I'm just a consumer. With you being a fellow vendor I can't see the logic in not disclosing to you what was in it. I mean if a person wanted to steal his formula that would be no problem with a sample of it and have it analyzed. Surely he knew or should of known you were just exchanging info for your own interest or maybe that wasn't his reason for attending. You know what they say about a guilty mind.
I may not have the memory of an elephant, I am a dog after all, but I couldn't forget you darling!
No no,. don't ever doubt yourself KK. Never ever. Your write ups just blew my mind. You got some great intellect in there!I've not noticed any particular change in batt run time, Isaac, but then again, I'm prolly THE person not to ask. I have way too many batts going all at the same time.
So ya know what? Just ignore what I just said! I don't even know why I'm posting!
HeySwitcher,You always kept my seat open at the supper table
This has gone on long enough. As stated in my previous post, don't be so hard on yourselves. Toppers are a consumable product
To my good buddy... I am only a Skype away
Oh man, wait until you read this email. The market has revolutionized as the world turns my friend. I took your advice from the past and made it a point to keep exploring as to avoiding getting lost in the dark

About tasting the bitter to appreciate the sweet. Totally understand and hear you clearly good buddy.People I have met in person around the area, I have spoiled so much with masses upon masses of products at alittle to no charge and do any of them use anything? Not by a long shot. Will it stop me? Not at all. We can help to an extent the rest is up to them as long I know the fact of attempting to help is good enough. I'm happy to hear that you invited a person in out them through the entire experience! That was really modest of you brother.
As for heightening the resistance. The coils being used here in this carto is very unique, reminiscent of the old days with a burn in period but great rewards. To raise the resistance on these to above normal is concerting for sales, but I think once facts are stated and known (if thats possible) they may move as to give better range for the end user. Though it will be needing users to rewrite their way of thinking "HR" when in this scenario it will operate at lower currents. Risky for sales though. Everything is an investment.
I'll fire up the ol skype box, it has been off for as long as I can remember
Oh my GOD Mastiff!! Buddy! How in the world are you?!?!?! Are you really still using it? Need anything for it?
Hi friendly human!
I hope you are doing EXCELLENT!I still use it when at home, though I find myself using mainly Ego style vv batteries when out and about because they're maybe more pocket friendly (due to the 5 click off). It still works great though!
I don't suppose there's an Ego connector that works with it? I have a 510-to-Ego adapter but it does look a little wonky. Otherwise the only other thing I'd like is a 16mm Kick-like device that would fit (though I find running 1.5Ohm Dual Coils is pretty darn satisfying I wouldn't mind be able to tailor the voltage/wattage).
Even after all these years I'm still in love with it's size and weight!
I finally had one of these that needed replaced. That's pretty good though a little less than 2 weeks. I've been getting between 8 to 12 hrs. on the little Ikon battery and that's not bad either.
Carto #2 is doing fine with the cinnamon roll juice. It's a low flavor percentage and has always given me less carto clogging that my other ADV. Knowing to set the voltage much lower from the start made a huge difference in performance vs. carto #1.
The inner flood ring doesn't bother me at all but one thing they need and I know I'm going to hear different but it needs a flange. Doesn't have to be big. Even just a bump. Something to keep the tank from sliding down onto the PV and then you get a pocket full of juice.
I would add to tell peeps they need to get extra vliquid. These hold a TON!
Thank you, Isaac!
