also Mel has not posted in almost two days.maybe a break is needed,here is her last post.
My house!! My house is next! Please?
My housekeeper sux, and she has an awful attitude lol. Unfortunately, I can’t fire myself
She's in my prayers. So is Mel. I really think each of us should have at least one person who has our phone number so that someone can try to get in touch if someone goes poof and disappears.
Not that I'm not concerned at all, but Opinionated has always had a tendency to disappear from time to time, and then return. I know she's not feeling well (but frequently doesn't), so I'm hoping it's just a bad spell, and she'll return shortly.
Now, Mel- she probably just got fired for using the owner's computer to go on forums.
Thank you Anise!
There are a few people here that have my phone number. Sure wish I had Opinionateds.
I got my little shiny silver axial today and man is it well-built. At first I was thinking I was going to be really disappointed or that I was going to have to really work on how to build it in single coil. I used Muji cotton which is something I haven't been using that much ever since I got the Unicorn hair with the little shoe string thingy on it. At first I wasn't getting much flavor and I was really upset but apparently that was just break in that needed to happen. I chose to do my legs at six on coily because the inner diameter is only three and it's pretty high up there near the mouth piece. Anyhow I chose to just keep everything the same figuring I would fix it in the morning when I was less tired but it didn't need to be fixed. I'm really glad that I got it and it was so simple to build on. It really can push some clouds too! What a lovely $10 rda. But now I realize I have too many rda is because I haven't been using squonk that much so now I'm going to have to find an RTA on sale on somewhere other than fasttech. Just going to be so hard because I'm so cheap but I don't want to wait months and months and months for shipping LOL
The mod has a lot to do with getting a great TC experience. Many support TC but very few actually work properly. It's either DNA or Arctic Fox firmware on a mod from the holy trinity of WeeLeaf/Wismec/Joyetech that I only use for TC.
I love the Hohm Wrecker G2 as well for TC because it can put temperature control on any type of wire, even Kanthal and N80. It was never a plug and play TC like on the DNA and did require a lot of settings tweaked to keep it running.
thanks for reminding me why I bought 3 of these. I gave one to my daughter who left it in a store in the shopping cart. I see the other two while rummaging away in my boxes of 'put up' stuff and have wondered why I, at one time, felt a need to buy them
I'm definitely gonna give it another go. I'll run TC on my Therion starting with SS roundwire. Can you reccomend a starting point setting for DL vape - lets say equivalent to a power mode setup of 0.4 Ohms at about 40W ? I like a moderately warm vape. Previous attempts I was a bit confused about what the relationship was between the W and temp settings in TC mode.
With TC the temp is what you want to vape at and the wattage is how fast it gets to that temp.
I'd make sure the atty is vaping perfectly in power mode first. Basically you can chain vape it at your chosen power setting without any problem whatsoever. Then I would unscrew the atty, let it sit for 10 minutes to cool off to room temperature completely, cold base resistance is key to a properly working TC.
Set your Therion to the wire type in the atty, try 450F and 50W as a starting point and screw the atty on. The Therion should detect the New resistance and if it looks correct then say yes. If it's way off then try reattaching the atty again but I doubt this will be the case.
At this point you should be good to go, hit the fire button and see how the vape works. If the Therion goes to Temp Protect immediately, you have a problem with improper cold base resistance, wrong TCR value for the wire used (all SS can be different, even between batches from the same manufacturer) or you forgot to turn the juice flow on.
This will take loading a profile for said wire, resetting the cold resistance again etc. Hopefully all is good and now it's just a matter of fine tuning you vape. I find that anyone who gets a great TC vape below 400F doesn't have a properly functioning TC. I usually run mine at 420F with the Jaquin UD SS316L wire profile V4 from the Evolv forum or around 450F with the stock Steam Engine 316L CSV profile. The wattage is up to you and will usually be the same or higher than what you use in wattage mode, but you can adjust either for taste.
Keep in mind that I only use TC these days on squonks and drippers as I'm lazy and have been bit too many times pulling on a dry RDA after setting it down then forgetting to rejuice the wicks.
When I did run TC on RTAs it was usually with Ti wire on Kayfuns, FeV, Ammit, Crius Plus etc. I do still run TC on the Russian Fusion RTA sitting on my Arctic Fox Pico.
The above should be a good starting point and it will take some tinkering to get it to what you like. TC is not for everyone, if you get it going and enjoy it that's all good, if not then that's all good too!
You can’t come WITHOUT Carli! What’s a few more furry tumbleweeds at this pointCertainly ...Oh wait, hang on... you mean it didn't stay clean from when I did it last year?
Ok on my way ... couple requests though, some of those homemade rolls you made, a meal (or six), a place to crash and I'm there!
If your mods are in the sink with the dishes, too bad. You have plenty others to choose from. However, if I see a Creek and/or a Clutch in your sink, I will gently move those to the counter.
Can I bring Carli?
. Food I have in spades... but you touch my Clutch or Creek, and you’ll draw back a nub, Buddy I need to track my BB and see where it is. And pick out a dt for it. Red is unusual for me
I’m here, I’m here lol
Just busy doing house/kiddo/elder care stuff. Man, I didn’t realize I hadn’t been here since Wednesday!! Must be a time warp here lol
Did Steam Crave make only one Aromamizer Lite? Or is there an OG and then the 1.5? I cannot figure out if the 1.5 is the OG or not
At the very least, you and @Myrany should have my address so y’all can come get the stash, should I get hit by a meteor or something. Y’all are the closest to me. For your sake, I’ll try and keep that to a day the Causeway isn’t closed for weather
@the wind, you and @*RJ* can split what I have at Mom’s. Well, now that my will is written, I can get back to Shiny Shopping!!! Today id payday, and that Clutch is still siren calling me
Thanks heaps. Hopefully I'll get to try it out later todayWith TC the temp is what you want to vape at and the wattage is how fast it gets to that temp.

Well, now that things are more settled her I built out the SS Axial that arrived yesterday. Took off the pretty shiny SS cap and used the black full PEI cap I got, along with an amber Ultem like one, as the mod I wanted on looks better with black rather than the very shiny SS cap, love having caps around to swap to whatever color looks best, still one of my all time fave attys. I’ve yet to use it as a dual, but one day I’ll play with that too.
My daughter had her CT done and everything looked good. No patchy pneumonia, or evidence of lung injury. It’s just going to be a long convalescence. She needs to walk a little farther outside every day to build back up. And this in someone who normally can do 7 mile runs. But all I care about is she’s improving and doing well, thankfully better than some others cursed with this thing.
It looks like NYC will be closed until June 13, but other far more rural areas where they have cases under control and still declining are starting to slowly reopen. Now comes the wait to see if this was too soon.

Probably among the last of the shiny items I'll get, since I'm fairly stocked. Well, I am still waiting on another Precisio & Doggy. This came today, tested, works, goes into the stash. I'll continue to use up my internals & my other Colossal for a time.
This was actually as good a deal from VaporRange as the half off sale at Asmodus, and I got it in a week.
