Morning shinies :)

I'm now branching into lemons and so far so good :thumb:
Morning to you in NZ!!!
If you don't like the vape perhaps you can make some lemonade? :lol:
Or if you like the vape still make the lemonade and pull up a good read like "Man With No Name: Turn Lemons into Lemonade" by Wally Amos? A trifecta! :D

Inspired by the earlier discussion here, this afternoon I decided to rewrap a battery for the first time. It took approximately four thousand years, and I'm still not entirely satisfied (the last little bit at the positive end is being crazy stubborn). I hope the battery is okay: I was waving my hair dryer over it for a long, long time. After it's had a chance to rest, I'm going to stick it in the charger and see if all the readings looking all right; then, if all seems well, I'll try it in a mod. If it works okay even with the slight ridge remaining at the positive end, I'll declare it a success. But, boy oh boy, if this didn't give me a huge incentive to continue to treat my wraps like delicate flowers, nothing will.

Still, another vaping first successfullyish completed. Where do I get the badge to sew on my sash?

Thank you! Yes, Rossum - I knew there was an R. I have that thread bookmarked I was just too lazy to scrooooollll through all of them. Something else I need to organize!
Do you have that bookmark handy? I can’t seem to find that thread

The rewrapped battery doesn't work in the Colossal but does in the JAC. I don't think I want to take the hair dryer to it again; it's had enough torture. I'll do better next time and hope "next time" is far in the future.

Instead of a hair dryer I wonder if you could use a sledge hammer to gently tap the battery wrap in place.

A little shiny showed up on this wet Wednesday: Cthulhu 1928 in SS, and some VandyVape Superfine ni80 claptons (which came with the little 2.5mm coil mounting rod):

I thought you were posting a picture of one of those glass pipes with the fake flowers in them. You can usually find them at convenience stores in the hood by the register.

They smelled really bad so I figured my picky palate wouldn’t like it (now that my tastebuds are recovered I can taste even a small amount of oxidation whereas before I could vape brown nic. Also , it was chemnovatic nic, one of which was actually stored in my working-stash fridge, so I’ll never be buying that again (perhaps my experience is unique and it’s normally good). I really want some of that 200 mg nic from MFS for long term storage but I fear that would oxidize quicker than 100 mg...?
I think today I’ll smell all the nic in the long term freezer because when I first started buying it I know there’s at least 2 liters that sat in a dark room , but unrefrigerated for a few weeks. If the chemnovatic nic smelled so bad after a few weeks, I fear I’ve lost a few liters to oxidation and need to purge and restock :-(
If you wouldn't miss the th hit salts are more stable and resistant to oxidation. I buy the 250 from either LNW or NR, both are good.

I’ll probably buy the extended life from now on. Sorry to hijack the thread o_O I know it’s not about nic! :D
It's all about vaping and critters. I don't think it's possible to hijack the Shiny's. :lol:

I wouldn’t miss it since I only use nic salts for hubby. That’s really good to know. Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check LNW today as I’ve never tried theirs

Morning shinies :)

I'm trying to broaden my ejuice horizons - love mints, tried and love berries but that's been it. I'm now branching into lemons and so far so good :thumb:

But the poor doggy RTA won't get to try them ;)
Ohhh
What lemons did you get ?
