afternoon all.
return to work was thankfully filled with little that couldn't be dealt with. hate that anxiety after coming back from a longish break (maybe that's why I don't take longish breaks). i have gained admin rights over the 50 departmental PCs, which is nice. will save some whining.
the hadron with intake dual and the cold steel 100 topped with hastur performed admirably.
wish i could say the same about public transport. phone ticket app maintaining that it's expired despite having 25 days left and the actual vehicles rivaling hen's teeth for availability.
there should be slightly shiny things on saturday including the long awaited evdilo. purple if my memory serves me right.
phew. little said in so many words. textbook.

    i could swear i pressed post this morning before shut down, but it's still here

    muwarning shuwainies!

    You certainly do! But I have done it, and maybe more than once or twice ;)
    The joys of being an oversquonker :blush:



    The Kelpie RTA is said to have incredible flavour, plus it's designed by your favourite reviewer, Vaping with Vic :wub:

    yeah, it was on the list earlier, maybe tempted to support him as designer, but i crossed it out with all the top-air and because of the slide top @DeloresRose mentioned

    we'll see. i'm enjoying this for now and gotta look to get some better juices, at least stock up on my fav's.

    made 4 10ml batches and 1 big gorilla yesterday to test ones i haven;t tried.

    as if you hadn't said it... all @Rob B. 's tickling started me rewatching mesh rta reviews, and when an rda version caught the corner of my eye, my mind_ squonked... been watching squonker reviews all morning!

    Took about 2y for me to finally quit carrying extra batteries for my two setups to work. Took almost 3y to quit carrying a second setup just to run to a store here in town. I think you showed admirable restraint Ange. I'd have taken half my stash and left the other half with my uncle incase I needed an overnight delivery.

    i'm starting to worry abt this_ gotta travel soon (where it's banned too). i'm thinking not to take the gen, just nunchaku and 2 batteries. not sure abt tanks, def. zlide but not sure if i should take a stock DL or the elevate and all that comes with it.

    Nah I don't want to turn up the power. I like a coolish vape. The problem is with the ramp up time. Also I aim for 0.5ohm most of the times. That brings another problem...the amount of wraps is way to much for some of my set ups. This is for a 3.0mm 0.5ohm coil. See that heat capacity...its going to take ages to ramp up..

    The only silution I see is a thinner wire...but that is flimsy and difficult to pull cotton in and out. I like things simple. Don't want to fuss with stacking wires really...;)
    That 0.5Ω thing... ;)

    You definitely have your quest cut out for you good sir...

    Have you thought about making your own flat wire? Good ole Morten Oen, remember him? We haven't heard from him in a year or more, he has a video on making your own flat wire and he likes a "cuel wape" too. ;)

    Morten Oen is a con man. I wouldn't listen to a word he says.

    Morning shinies ;)

    Got my NarCa caps & wire yesterday - it is always awesome to come home to vapemail :cool:

    Talking about flat wire. I need to find a better SS flat wire. The .68×.27 316L I use ramps up way to slow...need to go thinner, but to thin has its own problems.

    I've been experimenting :matrix: I got kanthal 1.0 x 0.14mm from FT, and it was nearly as easy to coil with as the 0.68 x 0.27mm - but ramped up quicker. They've got a 316l version:
    $2.28 Authentic MKWS 316L Stainless Steel Ribbon Heating Wire - 0.14mm*1.0mm flat size / 30ft (10m) at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
    I'm using kanthal 0.5 x 0.2mm, which is right on the border of PITA & easy to coil ;)

    Zivipf have 316l 0.8 x 0.2mm (& lots of other awesome wire):
    SS Flat Wire V4A 0.8x0.2mm / .032*.008" - AWG 25

    If traveling where there are bans buy some cheap disposables you won't mind getting confiscated.

    Morning all. I'm sweating on the arrival of a Passage rda today - ordered on 26th Dec from the biggest local retailer (Vapoureyes) and only shipped a few days ago.
    They used to always ship next day and from order to delivery was rarely more than 3 days but they've really dropped the ball in the last few months.
    Anyway- hopefully I'll post a photo later.

    here you @Eskie, optimistic with your name on it!



    wow, that berserker trick, i knew the upside down and other general tricks, but no tank-specific ones. it took longer than it should have for someone to say btw 50vg leaks more, when i was having problems with stockcoil-DLs.. but it was here of course that i got the golden advice.

    i got a a few 100mls of 50 base i got when i thought i'd be mixing a lot more salts for my MTL. consuming much less than i'd imagined i still got at least 9 unopened ready to vape 10ml salt juices. so thought i could make use of the 50vg base to better the flavour of the weak flavour shots. i could always just strengthen the percentage.

    don't tempt with that bottom-air-flow is better flavour_ my order was barely confirmed before i started looking for a mtl rta and i already got a hurd crush on the brunnie__
    ...
    orfrf gear is stil available at wotofo! that's the best single coiler right? oooh there's kelpie too! wait gear comes inn gold too?! that fits the gen button! _________ you were supposed to help with my current vaping experience Orchid, not make lust for more! i abjure your shiyne-spewing keyboard!

    I thought the Gear was the best flavor single coil until I got the Kelpie. Haven’t used the Gear since.

    From the brand site It's clear there will be a package with the 510 adapter already included
    Nice looking set up that. Wismec shows the pod, but your other link don't. I hope they include it without showing it..

    That 0.5Ω thing... ;)

    Yeah its time to get over that 0.5 ohm thing. Hell it took me 2 years to get under the 1ohm.

    :lol: I love Morten. He gives it his all...I mean he made a fantastic looking RBA that almost worked :p
    Yes I thought of flattening it myself, but buying is easier.
    I think i'll follow @AngeNZ lead and start experimenting.

    Afternoon everyone! Hope you’re all having a good day!

    No vape mail today. I’m still waiting for packages from Sourcemore and Everzon. I think those are coming from Singapore so I’ll try to be patient. It’s mostly stuff for the Stash anyways.
