Thanks Rob... they're letting me out tomorrow afternoon to continue my recovery at home. If I need transfusing I will be ambulances back to the day hospital here. I have trained nurses who will visit and take my blood tests when I'm at home so looking forward to being a proper family again.

Your Mediterranean experience in the navy sounds great. You must try and get over for a visit.....so much to see and do much beautiful stuff to do in Europe

Take care my friend

Good to hear. If things go to plan how long before they cut you loose?

Good Morning Shiny People!

Dr visit today about getting clearances for knee replacement, woohoo!

 

[lupinehorror]

one of my eyes resembles christopher lee's in the 60s version of dracula just after some red stuff sippin'. plenty ouch too.
will spare you the photography. it is shiny but not in a terribly presentable manner.
the blinding peeper wash seems mostly ineffective.
on the plus side it may revolt colleagues tomorrow. every cloud and all that.
have prescribed myself russian vodka. i did study latin at school so am fully qualified in such medical matters.

If anyone is still stocking up on nicotine, Heartland is offering a 30% off sale for Valentine's Day. No code needed that I saw, but given their already reasonable prices, that's a very good deal. If I wasn't stocked up I'd be adding to the stash with that sale. But really, 6 L of nic and i think I'm good for 20 years even if I start to consume twice as much as I currently do, so it's not worth it for me.

My 2nd Luxotic kit, and also my 2nd B2K rda

Wow these two are just rocking!

 

[chanelvaps]

Tried that just now and it works. Actually easy to do to. Thanks for that mate. I remember I used to do that with other tanks back in the day.


Nah its new cotton. That don't seem to make a difference on mine. Its a pressure build up thing....with that final tightning.

Oh, what do I know eh? That is just what I do whenever mine have leaked and they do not much (or I would not love them)

Morning shinies

That’s good to know since I have two Pumpers. I knew they didn’t suck back the juice but didn’t realize an RDTA would eliminate that issue. Thanks



Thank you, you two. I still have spares, it was more for stocking up in the future



Extra capacity and good for when you are distracted and forget to squonk. Which I still do regularly

The Pumper is perfect for an RDTA too, since it doesn't suck juice back. Mine either has a Haku Riviera RDTA or a NarCa RDA on it

I'm ordering a hex set of wiha, should I get the metric set?

 

[chanelvaps]

Yes, natural is best for sure. The last two nights I've even tried Xanax but even that doesn't work. Of course I'm still on the pain killers which I've developed a tolerance for. I'm a bit worried about the oxycodone as I've been taking it since August. I guess the doctor's know how to get you off relatively easily.

Hoping you're feeling better....and sending big hugs.

The DRS do know how and it is called detox. Something you would be very smart to demand and follow up with. There are some horror stories of folks that never detoxed and became addicts and blame their DRs who should have insisted.
I would not worry about now, just get better

I know a lot of people have much better Google-fu than I. So does anyone know of an American company that is selling Notch coils? In a multi-pack or at a reasonable per unit price. The kind that you would put in an RTA Not the commercial type coil ones.. Specifically the wismec theorem Notch coil But anything similar to that. It would be really nice if I could find one that has the little Notch coil tool to help me bend it because I suck at manipulating my coils.

LightFire has them, you need to set up a account to see prices.
They want 3.40 a 5 pk.

Have you considered making a video of what you're doing? Maybe sharing it with some of the experts on here who may be able to spot what the issue might be. I imagine you've used a number of different products. Right now I've fallen in absolute love with the wismec theorem. I got it a week or two ago and I haven't stopped using it which is a record for me with a new atomizer. It's a little bit of a funky little guy but it couldn't be easier to build And I really honestly would call this thing leak proof unless you lay it on its side. There's no fun in having leaking every time you do something. Do you maybe live in an area that's like higher up above sea level which is sort of causing that sort of effect and making things leak. Because I know if you go in an airplane (not suggesting you live literally in the sky) but if you go in an airplane your tanks going to you're tanks going to leak because of the pressure. Also, I usually follow a pattern where if I get leaking and I adjust it twice. I will put it away if I can't get it to stop leaking right then because I don't want to throw it against the wall or decide that I hate it or whatever.

Can someone remind me of why I’d use an RDTA on a squonker mod. Is it just for the added capacity or that and some other reason as well.

Thanks

Lol. I don't have an rdta that allows for squonking without modification anyway. But I imagine there's something to do with the tank. I also imagine it would probably help if you're a overzealous squonker. I usually like to put the tiniest little thing I can find on my squonk mods.

 

[Skunk!]

For those looking for an easy way to keep copper mods clean, the $6 jewelry cleaning cloths at Walmart do an excellent job in minutes

Metric, that's foreign to me.
