Hey, I duckduckgo myself! See? Sneaky.

In other news, the diamond P3 has been sold. I'm (I've) saved! Which is good, 'cause I just bought a eight 125ml bottles of Nude Armor v1 to top off my stash, thus almost certainly guaranteeing that my heirs--whoever they may be--will be squabbling over my nicotine when I croak.

That was a sweet looking mod. I’m glad that it’s gone too!

Do you have the Legend? Or the single-battery Aegis? I have the latter. It is certainly big but I find it quite comfortable to hold. I only use it when I'm taking a bath, though, so I'm not handling it much. I have zero doubt the Legend would be uncomfortable for me.

It's a lovely, sturdy mod that should last a long time. The menu is kind of tricky, though. And the stabs are way, way out of my league.

I love the JAC. So much so that I bought three--luckily, before they changed the design to accommodate attys only up to 23mm. It is handsome, solid, and a pleasure to hold (its slimness in particular is a boon to an arthritic hand).

I'll be using an RDA, so I can squonk with it. It truly is gorgeous. As I said somewhere else, I'm not going to polish it. There's so much resin, more shine would make it way too gaudy for my tastes. I might oil the wood, though.

I started vaping with a cigalike in April of last year and graduated to mods last November. I don't even know how much I've bought since then. Need to do another inventory. I'll probably blush when I see how much I've acquired.

The few times I've left the house long enough to bother bringing a device with me, I've chosen the Kroma-A, in part because it seems pretty tough but mainly because I care about it the least (I only keep it in the active rotation because it has an internal battery, and I figure I better get the good of it while it lasts). When I get my Solo, though, I'll start using it for outings.

I'm holding firm at one. Someone snapped up that blue guy, so he can't tempt me, the Celtic knot P3 is gone, and I can't talk myself into spending the money on the others.

The batteries I ordered for the Provari on Saturday arrived today. That is crazy fast. Got a nifty little 18650-powered fan for free, too!

You remove the cap from the silicone bottle to fill? I had a horrible time putting that thing back on; I'd rather never take it off again if I can avoid it.

The whole process sounds rife with opportunities for mess, especially for someone with clumsy hands. I will be most interested to see how I cope.

Wow that was fast delivery. Which batteries and where from. I’d like to get a couple of the midsize 18490 so it can be used shorter too.

I read an article several years ago about a Swedish book on Death Cleaning. You start at 50 divesting yourself first of things you don’t use or need. As you progress, you end up with just the essentials and a box of personal mementos for yourself that wouldn’t mean anything to family. I let the girls go through the piles of rejects (everything from kitchen, bedding, entertaining or tchotchkes etc), then donated what they didn’t want to the battered women’s shelter (including an embarrassing amount of new/almost new clothes, shoes and accessories). I have instructions for my memento box to be tucked in my coffin.

I wish I was as good at doing it with my vape gear. I did get rid of a ton of outdated, never use again stuff...but, I always worry that I might need it if the FDA finally drops the hammer.

I call it purging lol! But it’s basically the same thing. I only keep what use. If it hasn’t been used in over a year it’s out of here.

We have Savers store who proceeds go to a charity. I jus - Goodwill. That’s it Goodwill. It’s an awesome feeling to be free of that STUFF!!

I may sell a couple of mods that either I don’t like or I’ve “outgrown” which is just another way the latest fancy gear lol!!

OK long timers ;)

I've no intention of ever being nic or vape/free, so I'm not worried about weaning - and I've sat happily on 12mg mtl for the past year. But I've noticed the past few weeks I'm getting nic sick if I do more than 1 rewicking, or a few mix tests after a normal morning of chain vaping

I still NEED to chain vape my .... off from when I wake up to when I go to work, but after that I definitely vape less, or rather I vape like a normal person would ;)

I figured if I drop to 10.5mg mixes for chain vaping, and stay at 12mg for normal vaping, I should be able to avoid getting nic sick - I hope :rolleyes:

How did you guys settle on your long term nic levels?
I just let my body decide my nic levels. Right now the nic bases I mix are 9mg for rta, 3mg for rda, and when in the mood for the Fireluke I mix 1.5mg.

That is the OG Inbox with the PET bottles instead of V3 Silicone version. HCigar sells conversion kits for them if you want to switch it over to Silicone. The included RDA is junk IMHO, the coils have to sit way too close to the edge and it's very easy to flood because of the bottom air flow.

Other than that, I carry one of those OG Inbox's with a B2K RSA everyday alongside my Billet Box. :D
Hey Troll

Only OG for me....I find a lot of good ol classics on UK sites :D

Probably agree with you about the RDA....don't like the look of it certainly. The box will suit a little 22mm IMO.

Do you know where you can get the conversion kit ? All my PET chubbies are terrible they haven't cracked yet but they look like they're going to. I'm hoping it can be adapted from something dirt cheap on FT :)

The whole purchase started because this site was the only place I could find the adapter for the EUC coils for the BB......MF bridge is on its way and i already have the A-tank :D

Right today I am mostly saying Good Morning.....before I have caught up with the thread :)

Hope everyone is having a good day....the local Mairie (Mayor) is going to resurface our street tomorrow so have been charging my van battery all day and night as it hasn't moved since last year :shock:

If it won't start i'll jump start it and if that fails it's a tow......it'll be fine :D

As stated, they are in California. I had a good size Asmodus order a couple weeks back. I ordered on the weekend, and on mid morning on Monday, they sent an email saying the items shipped. Another two days, and I had my mods. I would recommend them.

Charlie, I also found this info on their site:

If you are International customer and would like to place an order with us, please call us at 562-630-0888 during business hours or send us an email to vaporrangeshop@gmail.com. International customers have a flat rate of $39.95 for Priority Mail International shipping. Priority Mail International takes an estimated 7 - 10 business days.

VaporRange.com | Your Online Vape Store. Free US shippping. Our vapor shop offers free shipping to the US with unbelievable pricing on the best box mod to the cheapest mods on sale.
That's really useful Jim...thanks :) Ouch the shipping is pretty high but I know from experience that that is probably DHL which will ship in a few days....so there is that.

Where are you all finding these Provari's.....when I look on ebay it only come up with a few including a silver mini for 87$ a lot of them won't ship to europe either....it's weird because I thought there would be more over here than in the USA....hmmm

Ugh. I did not have a fun day. Went into work in the am and left after lunch I just felt to puny, I had this odd vertigo, nausea and the chills.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't a panic attack, I've pretty much trained myself to not ever have them. Like, even if my plane was going down I am fairly certain I'd be chill, and talking to the kid on my phone (why NOT then amirite?)

Anyway I did come home and talk to my kid on the phone and like, that was super nice. I figure this only demonstrates (if anything) that I am a delicate flower who can't handle conflict, but really, I would have been fine had I not felt ILL. Still got the shivers. I better drag my .... in there tomorrow because frankly, I don't want stuff being decided without my (horrified or not) input. Etc. I really wish I felt better.

I was getting widely fluctuating readings on my Ammit tank but I knew what it was, that pesky screw. IMPLAUSIBLY (I cannot emphasize this enough) I did actually find the replacement bag, TOTALLY by chance, I mean there was nothing to identify it. So I also (fairly implausibly but my new tape method WORKS) then replaced the wrong screw with the right one. It made it the ugliest coil in the world, and I was pretty sure it would just combust. Turns out my wick job was not too bad, but I was like, "there is no way that screw placement is going to avoid leaking. But it did. All these implausible things.

Well, "Rolley Polley Jam Log" or whatever is about three times too sweet/strong. I was wondering. I mean, I know the brits and their "jam." I really do.

So, I have this utterly implausible sort of.... Jam tank that's great mostly but tastes awful.

Oh well. That can be fixed. All the other stuff is great,

Then, I rewicked my two Rose V3 tanks, and that went well, oh except that I accidentally filled it up with "The Donut King" I had better hide that mix from myself. I got most of it out, and it doesn't go HORRIBLY will French Toast, whipped Cream, Maple and Rhubarb. It doesn't go GREAT either, but there could be worse combinations.

Then, I will eat dinner YAAASY and watch "The Black List." Which I am greatly enjoying. My son told me, "That's a terrible show." I was like, "Yeah, dude, I know, I'm on season FOUR. But it's better than "How to get away with Murder."

Then we bonded over our mutual hatred of Game of Thrones people. and their NEED to tell you all about what happened in the last episode and it comes out like a Grimm's fairy tale did when you were TWO and you are like "BAD WITCH ATE WHO?" only my son informs me, (heheh) that unfortunately, the last season is like LEGENDARY as far as bad seasons go it's THE WORST.

I'm sorry Games of Thrones people I have had that happen, and it sucks. Trailer Park boys should have ended with the Great Train Escape and left it there. But yea, you also kind of deserve it for telling me so much debauchery and whatnot.

Sorry, needed to vent I guess. I wonder when my squid will get here and if food will cure my headache and twitching.

The garbage blew over (the husband put it out) and now there is trash everywhere. I'm not picking it up NOW. The wind could like, lift a small child.

I bet all you games of Thrones people are like, "Anna deserves that, she doesn't know what she MISSED." Heh. I bear you no ill will for so doing.

Anna
Tell me more about the screw.....I get the same sometimes with my wife's ammit...have never nailed the problem :)

How did you guys settle on your long term nic levels?

That’s why I diy. So I don’t have to settle. Way back, when everyone swore you had to go 3 mg sub ohm, I did so. But it wasn’t enough for me, so I did 6mg.

I still have some mtl tanks laying around and some 12 mg for those. Then I got this Flint and mini mi pod, so I made some 25 mg salts.

I chain vape the 6mg all day. While mixing and testing, I feel a little over nicked but I drink extra water and I’m fine.

If it’s only once in a while stay where you are, maybe try not to vape at all before you start testing or wicking, and drink plenty of water.

That’s why I do wear gloves to mix, or any time I’m gonna get lots of nic on my hands. Because it does absorb and I do feel the effects.

Good morning shiners! Am I glad it's not Monday anymore. Got off to a very unpleasant start of the week, but as everything that can go wrong already did, I figure I'm in the clear for at least a week. Besides, Memorial Day codes should start popping up soon, so that should cheer me up.
