    Somewhere between here and there
    I know you were not a fan, but I like it. I use one pretty much every day. I have no idea what the hell happened with that screw though.

    It is disappointing when something like that happens. I had a brand new pnp rba that I couldn’t get a screw loosened to save my life. I eventually just threw it in the garbage.

    It was weird for sure. I had never had that happen on an RTA before.

    Both of my Ares originals died very quickly, I kind of thought they sucked so much anyway I just dumped them. I was not going anywhere NEAR the Ares 2 and I am glad I didn't.

    Innoken has made some awesome stuff but in my humble opinion the Ares series is not included in that list,

    Currently attempting to motivate me to do yoga. I don't want to go in and I FOR SURE do not want to go in at 3:30. I kind of want to say "F it I did not have enough notice and I had things to do. I'm just wanting to go in at 5 and say I took no breaks to make up for it. I will not eat dinner in the ER it is freaking DISGUSTING in there.

    After a year I may check out Morgantown a lot of the vets prefer it, say its more professional etc. IDK.. Gotta get rid of the supervisor first,

    I do not have any version of the Ares but I've seen a great many dislikes along with the likes.

    It seems that either or love it or hate it.
    That is true. I still use a Kanger subtank mini at times and I'm rather impressed at the number of folks that still love that tank.

    @Diver9543 mentioning the Ares 2 reminds me that I apparently broke one of mine. One of the screws that holds the coil in place no longer appears to screw in all the way. So the coil won't stay in place. I noticed when I first built on it, I had a horrible time trying to unscrew it the first time. The LE's didn't cost me anything (contest win), but it is still pretty disappointing. I use the Ares 2 all the time.

    I guess there are several possible causes. Maybe the threading is bad down the bottom of the hole or something. If the screw goes in good then stops it might be worth shortening the screw a little and see if it holds. If it's the screw that's damaged rather than the hole that wouldn't work. Does the screw that won't go all the way in work in the other hole?

    I once had a STM RDA with a stuck screw when I got it. I used major force with the tiny screwdriver and stripped the head. Now whenever I have something new I loosen the screws with needle nose pliers the first time.

    Good afternoon D-I-Y-er Folks !!! :D

    I slept later than normal this morning, by 10 minutes. Mighty strong and BLACK coffee managed to get all neurons firing in sync.

    We had snow this morning and it looked much like a snow globe that was well shook. Was pretty. It's all melted now. I love snowfalls that clean up after themselves the best.

    Cleaned and rewicked a few RTA's. Putzed with a couple chores around the house. Now it's that point in the day where whatever happens, happens naturally. :)

    Hope y'all have a wonderful day! :wub:

    LOL, I have no idea what a geyser is.
    FWIW, I had no clue it was a mod either. TBH when Hitt mentioned "geyser" this was what my mind saw.

    No not really. I just know that when I start watching tv I'll fall asleep. I did this before covid. :) I usually limit myself to late night tv watching. Going to watch this at 7pm

    That looks good. It's in the queue.

    Hope you are feeling better!!! :)

    I just started season 2. I’m saving it for when I’m off over Xmas.
    I am planning on starting Mandalorian season 1 followed by S2 soon. Maybe tonight. Looks like a really good series to me.

    Alabama is destroying Arkansas. I’m just lazy on this rainy day, especially after I ate four cheese ravioli and garlic bread. :drool: My solo won’t work. I don’t feel like fiddling so I just pulled out another one. I’ve been using it less than a year. :?: I expected the rugged solo to last longer than that.

    The STM with the RBA v2 deck is in my rotation now. It's a great vape with excellent flavor. Nice and airy MTL wide open. I still love it.

    Will the Solo just not turn on or is it something else?
