there's a battery cap you can buy for it that let's you use different sizes. got one so i can utilise 20700s
That explains the $ difference between vendors. Others didn’t come with the extra cap. I’m hopeful I’ll like this bugger

Gave in and ordered the geekvape aegis 100 watt (legend looks too big for me). I ordered from MFS. Their description says it will take a 18650/26650/20700/21700, but when I looked at other vendors, they only list 26650/18650.

Were there two versions, or is MFS wrong?

Honestly, I've only ran 26650s in mine. You may be able to get the longer cells into it but I doubt you would be able to get the cap flush with the bottom and therefor not have a water proof/resistant mod any longer.

Honestly, I wanted the vaporesso armour pro, but didn’t come across blue at the $ I wanted. Is the Aegis 100w much bigger than a Steampunk Nano?
It's the shape Mel, just awkward for pockets. Would be okay for baggy or pleated pants I guess, maybe.

Yes it would still be water resistant with the other cap for 2x700 batteries.

Pretty much what fishing pants are :lol:, just longer. Tons of pockets open and zippered. Wish all women’s pants were like that.
Have to say I like my .... hugging jeans, makes me feel sexy whether I am or not.;)

Glad I spent my shiny $ before the dentist :(. Leaving there to get an extraction and implant at the oral surgeon. Has anyone vaped after getting a tooth pulled? Maybe MTL will be okay (trying hard to be optimistic). @stols001 , any advice?
I have. DtL as easy as possible.
Big airflow with as little suction as possible for a couple of days.
Vape as easy as possible and save that Carolina Reaper e-juice for next week.

Yep, all about avoiding hard suction. Dislodging the clot that forms can be very bad news, indeed. Might want to keep Nic level at minimum, as well.
(Been there, done that, even on cigs)

Just finished mowing, thank you Lord for holding off on the rain. Going to hit the shower. Feels like 100 degrees out with humidity nearly to match. Heading to Stepdaughter & Son-in-law's house to help them assemble a grill (I'm going to provide tools and moral support, they need to learn).

Honestly, I think probably DL would be better.... It's not so much about the vape (to my understanding) it's the suction so a wide bore drip tip would be better. My oral surgeon said I could vape with my dentures to protect my implants, you might put a cotton ball on/over it if you can bear to do it. BUT, mainly, just you need a WEAK DRAW, it's mainly the suction that is the problem.

Now, I'm going to tell you to nasal vape (if you can bring yourself to do it) because that's what I did (with a MTL setup actually, it's ah, easier.) Shove the driptip up your nose (maybe do it in the mirror the first few times) and then sniff like you are really mad at someone. It will go straight down the back of your throat, and then you just exhale through your nose too.

The sinus membranes are crazy effective at absorbing vape, you won't have to do it often. My nose got a little dry and I didn't do it Out in Public, but that's about it. To be fair, I was passed out a lot, but even so I didn't vape that much.

Good luck, either one would be fine really, but I did the nasal thing because I was not About To Lose my implants (and I did lose one actually but it was unrelated to the vaping and LONG after the "healing period" it just got infected.

Either one would be fine I'm guessing. Honestly new research shows that the time to stop smokig or vaping is like 6 months before, not the 2 weeks afterward, it's usually gum inflammation that is the issue, but unless you are planning it or magically know it (most dentists don't or maybe they don't care) well, it's not gonna do you much good. Etvc.

Good luck @NolaMel !

I have a fiberglass pool. I spend $100 in chemicals a year. A little Proteam Supreme, 3” tabs, and a few shocks. I had to use ph up the first year. Oh, and soft scrub around the top edge. Easiest pool ever.
Chlorine? or salt?

not MTL because you have to suck harder. I think high wattage and lots of air. Like you hardly even have to pull on it.

As an alternative to the nasal vape. When on the ciggys, I got a long tube that the cig would fit in, and put it at the back of my tongue, bypassing the teeth and inhaling direct to throat. Same trick usable with long drip tip or a tube... Yes, I was desperate! DL is the way to go to avoid suction/vacuum.
EDIT: Nasal vape and Menthol is a BAD combo! OUCH!
