    Funny how that works. I'll probably just go to Best buy again and do the monthly payments added to my bill. For some reason they usually give you a better deal if you take the payments but you can pay off the phone any time after the first payment. I don't need the latest and greatest phone. I usually just go with whatever is the cheapest iphone at the time. I damaged the screen myself the first time. I had it in a coat pocket on a service call and it got hit and the screen stopped working completely. I needed something fast so got it repaired the same night. I thought the replacement screen would last longer. It hasn't been dropped, hit, or anything.
    Good luck getting your new phone, hitt :) Daughter got a new one a few months ago and I guess it was faulty cause they had to switch her to another new phone after a month of so.

    Has anyone here tried Chef's Lemon Coconut Cream Cake? If so, did you mix it at 20%, as Chef's suggests? Or did you go lower (which is my inclination, not least because I'd end up with way more PG in the mix than I like if I use my nic base, which I'm too lazy not to want to use, but also because 20% seems crazy high to me).

    I don't know anything about the flavor but I would mix it at a lower % and see how it tastes.

    I purchased the mod not the kit. What piece broke, it's one piece other than the buttons?

    I haven't ran it in high wattage, 20 watts in SS TC (TCR) works great. Pulse mode works good, straight wattage works nicely, curves works as it should, bypass works fine.

    Perhaps you had boost on high (VWH)? Or it could have read the resistance wrong and was firing hot, from what I can tell it doesn't constantly read resistance like a lot of devices do.

    I would try DIY > VW > VWN or Pulse mode.

    The piece that broke was the cover to fill slide, the part that holds the drip tip. I tried the coil in multiple modes, including pulse, vw , and tc. Didn't change a thing. I discovered that the Eleaf ello are a crossfit and are cheaper, so I've ordered some of those and will give it another try.

    So I just made a recipe and using the squeeze bottles and twisty caps for the VG and nic was very easy! I made HIC's Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge and the recipe can be found here Passunca's Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge | dot1ml. I am about to finish a tank and I'll have to dry burn and rewick before I give it a go.

    I'm finally back in business, power was restored late yesterday and internet was restored about an hour ago.

    Thanks everyone for the well wishes.
    My MIL is from FWB. She shared pictures from her cousin who still live there of the old home place (bay side, actually fronts in downtown FW). Water was incredibly high! Glad y’all are recovered enough to get back up and going. To not get hit directly, y’all sure got beat up by Sally.

    I usually take my wife's old phone and I'm fine with it. But, this last phone I have had has actually lasted me longer than any phone before it. It's the Android 7.0.... it just will not die. It has no screen protector or case on it and I have dropped it many times in the 4 years I have had it. There is something about this particular phone. It's lasted so long that I have 2 of my wife's old phones in inventory waiting for this one to die.

    I even dropped it in one of my turtle ponds trying to take pictures. I just shut it down and put it in a bag of dried rice and it powered right back up 4 days later. Battery life is getting worse on it but it still works really well.

    I've always gotten 4+ years out of my iphones but like I said, I damaged this one and am sure the screen that was installed was aftermarket. I'm not upset but it's bad timing. I just paid a speeding ticket for my youngest and paid for a car repair for the oldest daughter.
