Thanks E !!! Mason is so quick and athletic but he respects Sugar. She raised him. Mason just loves to play and Sugar just loves to antagonize him into zooming circles around her as she tries to catch him LOL. It's a game they play daily with each other. And they truthfully do get along really great. Never any aggressions, one toward the other. A pleasure to own these two. So easy.

Your photos of them are telling, they both found a really good home :)

Yeah. I'm wondering if he'd adopt me. ;)


Off topic, but we could use a counter to all the posters telling this guy not to make a purchase based on what lists are telling him is good.. he found the JAC series B and a bunch of people saying no no no.. but as everyone here likes it, I thought we should have some users converge with their thoughts.

Haven't vaped in a while would like to try again

That guy needs a lot of guidance, sounds like he's been away for a couple years...

From the looks of it he hasn't been around since cartos were a thing of the past.. lol.. (look at his post ing history.. 2012 was when he was vaping, and he was using cartos)

At the same time, something with lots of flexibility is important.. flexibility will get him where he needs to be, for as little money as possible as there isn't a lot of this isn't working for me.. (coils are cheaper than new mods for that)

Lots of people start low end and keep buying and buying, if you start with something that will go many places, I think people are better off.

Yeah, I saw that too, wouldn't know where to start recommending tanks etc, so many choices and OPINIONS out there, he really needs to do some poking around and getting a feel for the waters as it is today...BTW, that opinions thing is not a dig at you in any way shape or form, it is towards some of the folks I see around the forum here and there. But for a mod, the JAC does have a lot to offer for the price point and will allow him to try his hand at many different styles of atties that are currently available. Maybe later after a few drinks, I'll post over there, "just get a ProVari! :lol: :D

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO IT!!!!!!!!!!

Same here, BTW, @Opinionated . Had everything to do with the person - nothing at all related to you. JAC's a great suggestion, as we know, but we also know how vapers are.

Let him shop & learn, and maybe play some along the way. We are we to rob him of THAT... ;)

Hahaha..

I hear what your saying, but I think for many potential vapers, that shopping around and trying things is what makes them give up on vaping.

What do I hear the most from people who tried vaping and said it wasn't for them? That they only tried ONE thing, and hated that thing..

My husband didn't like my ego, and kept saying he would not try anything else I tried handing him after that.. it took a while for him to even take a puff off my provari..

But your right, with so many opinions out there this is something every one has to do for themselves.

When your friend wants to go out and you just want to sleep.
Check out the mutant paws on that Kitty :blink:

OMG! Seeing that white kitten makes me want another one. My three are old 11, 8 and 7). I miss kitten shenanighans and whites are my favorite. Two of my three are white!

Even when he was a puppy, Mason and Sugar got along pretty good

@newyork13 ... I'll second the Magic Rub. I mentioned the Ruby Red (which I don't have on hand or have misplaced) and couldn't remember the name of the other one at the time of my earlier post. Later that day, I dug "the other one" out and cleaned some center posts LOL.

I like the Magic Rub 1960 you use best, for the form factor. Peel-off 1960 is much handier than this Faber Castell Magic Rub 1954 for cleaning ProVari contacts. Both are the same Magic Rub material, just different vendor and form factor. I can also visualize the Magic Rub 1960 reaching the positive contact on the ProVari tube mod circuit boards too. I use this one only because I've had it around a couple of decades and used it ocassionally when I worked on PC's and various circuit boards. Magic Rub doesn't degrade or dry out, harden like pencil (type) erasers either.

Magic rub description: Magic Rub Eraser is a white vinyl non-abrasive eraser for mylar drafting film, delicate drawing or tracing paper.

20638453_457405041282087_748097761872168201_n.jpg
Absolutely right about the form factor. It fits perfectly to reach the pin. It would also easily reach the circuit board, but I personally would never do it, just because any eraser can possibly (likely even) leave a crumb or two behind. Wouldn't want them in the mod. I can blow them out of the 510 connector well if I have to.
And as an admirer of your pics, I want to see one of you cleaning a pin with that eraser of yours. LOL.

That be my favorite eraser, got a number of them around. I didn't know about the 1960 version. Yikes ... 1st hit at Amazon was showing $38 for just one. But a bit of looking there, you can also find it for $9 with free shipping.
Yikes indeed. Don't recall what I paid at an art supply shop, but much closer to $5 than $38.
