Random DIY mixing and More

I’m sure you’ll get back there in time.

No doubt.

I can taste when a wick needs to be replaced. It starts to lose flavor. I get a minimum of 14 days with flavored juices. Right around day 15-18 the flavor is less intense in rta's, time for a new wick. My wicks for unflavored last about a month. For whatever reasons, wicks last longer in my rda's 20-24 days. I use a little flip notebook for tracking wick and coil changes for each rba in-use.

I do notice sometimes when the flavor starts to fade. I have a file on the computer for tracking it all. My wife uses unflavored and her wicks last a month. I change the wicks twice then replace the coils. Used to replace the coils after 6 wick changes, but by then the coils have changed from shiny to dull grey, which probably is a bad thing. Now I replace a coil when it starts to look grungy.

That's way too organized for me. When a tank gets bad enough that I don't want to use it then I sit it to the side until I have a few to clean and just grab another tank out of my tank organizer. I have enough tanks that I could probably use a different one each day for at least six months.

That’s a lot of tanks. Any favorites ?

It is rather low but plenty of room for the 2 cases. All my other cases need to stand up and not fitting under any bed. Those cases are in my ottoman.

Gotcha. I don't have any stand up cases, just flat ones.

I filled my Dvarw and was ready to vape my cheesecake but my internal battery pv wanted to be charged.

My cases can be laid down but I wouldn’t do it. Too much chance of leaking.

All of my 10ml cases stand up vertically in my cabinet but don't have any room for more. The two stack on cases are on a shelf on an old desk I moved down to the basement. I might be able to clear some stuff out of one of them to make room for some 30ml bottles but definitely not enough room for all of them.

Space would be nice. I live in a small house, the only space I have for vaping gear is the shelves over my computer and under the bed. And the mini freezer on a small table next to the computer desk. Maybe it's good though. Limited space makes you a bit more disciplined.

I’m not looking forward to more snow. I really want this addition to get started. Unfortunately I can’t change the weather so I have to wait.

Now I replace a coil when it starts to look grungy.

I usually get about 4-6 months on a coil. Prefer SS316L 26/36 clapton or 28x2/40 fused 2 core SS316L. Occasionally I like running Ni80 Aliens and Ni80 TriCores. Also like 27g and 26g simple round SS316L, but those I'll only run for 2-3 months. I never dry burn any coil beyond a very dull orange. None of my coils ever gunk up either, which I attribute to using juices with overall low percentage mixes.

We got about 6 inches of snow last night. Here we can get snow into April and an occasional snowfall in May.

I found a roll of quad core ni80 that I forgot about and tried to wind a 2.5mm coil for the meson on a simple stepped coiling rod and just couldn't get it to come out right. The wire was just too stiff. I wonder if a different coiling tool would work better. I want to try that wire but the coil I wrapped looked horrible.

Good morning ladies & gentlemans,

got refills for my 0.7 pilot g2 pens.
And since I like colors, I bought 5 pens in pastel.

When they come on offer, I will have refills for my 0.5.
But now, back to the drawings!

Germanfest is coming up. I bought a second dirndl. That gives me one for each day I'll work the booth. Of course on Sunday, I'll be delivering packages.

Pretty pens.

Oh, we can get snow into April also. I remember one 2 foot snow in April.

No help here.

One battery left to charge.

 

[FranC]

PV charged and cheesecake tasting good,

 

[gloopdegurp]

I have a pair of batteries charging as well.

Running six setups right now because I'm not working. If I'm working I have three or four in rotation since I only vape at home.
I have more tanks set up than mods so try to switch them out now and then.

Right now running two Serpents with the vertical builds (still liking those a lot), Serpent Elevate, Dead Rabbit 3 RTA, Aero (sub-ohm tank), and Cloudy.
