That help would be great. But you do not understand something. You will be dealing with a fairly fat old lady that can not see past the end of her nose, down on her knees...

It is going to be truly scary.

Lol that was my favorite kind of call when I worked for Time Warner!!

We used to have a woman that called in once a week because her router went down and they had installed it in the attic, she had to run up and down the stairs to troubleshoot it (about 5 times). After the 3rd time we just started telling her that her router thought she needed to get a work out!!

Shari, im willing to call and walk you through it. i used to be the tech you would call for comcast.

setting up the modem is easy...

Top, my tech notes are still labeled "Fixing computers with PEOPLE problems"!

Hammer Mod by Tobecco | eBay

The Hammer | VapeRev

its heavy! but I found that I like the button placement better than a bottom button. Has a Copper pin so very good conductivity.

Leads me to know I will need a mech mod with a button on the side at top looking for reliable one without too much fiddling around. I am tryong to win these instead of buy, hate to waste money on something I might not like. THe hammer was won on Mod ENvy. Had a few good wins this week. Another Itaste VV V3 and a box of juice.
I am saving the Itaste VV V3 for a rainy day when my others die. Its like having another twist awaiting service. The only other purchase I would make would be Provari product.

I am finding that I like higher end juice (sigh, I hate that. But it keeps me from smoking for real, I am cheap so it offends me that it is this way.)
but I wen t to a few local B & M's to window shop and tasted a few really good flavors. I had to buy one, so I got Cosmic Fog Milk and Honey. YUM I tried Space Jam and Suicide bunny, the Standard and a few more. OMG what a difference! I don't buy into hype, I have to try the juice. But they rocked my world! Now I just need $$$$







Wait!
What's a hammer? :?:
do I need one? :?:
do I want one? :?:
ok you convinced me :unsure: where can I get one? :p


Seriously though what is it?

Where is Thaya! :glare:

I ordered samples at GLV lady......Deadly Sin is really nice! :) Newminster isn't bad :) and Tahitian Pearl (with a little menthol) is really good! I have others to try but so far I'm impressed.

Let me ask you though - is there PGA in these? I have no problem but lox did with the 2 tobaccos listed.

Mark,

Are the Iclear30s that much better than the Iclear30?

I finally broke down and started using one of the Iclear30 that came with my MVP, and was really disappointed. Perhaps I'm spoiled with some of the other heads I've found. I know the 30s is different, but is it that much better than the straight 30? (with the external wick).

(Other heads being EVODS, Iclear16, CE4's etc. The Iclear30 with no S didn't seem much better than any of the others. Not comparing it to anything much higher-end)

-Mark

Any heads up on how you're doing the rebuild? I'd love to try one.

Just want to update on a couple of things.
I did manage to get a coil rewicked without popping the coil wire with cotton yarn. It added a little flavor and a better throat hot but good golly it was a pain and so not worth the effort.
Since I've got a bunch of cotton ball laying around I figure if try it out on the coil I popped the other night trying to rewick an iclear 30B. Oh wow it was EASY. I pulled the cotton yarn out of the one I'd managed to not pop and replaced it with cotton ball. Better flavor, better throat hit better vapor by a LOT over the silica whereas the cotton really didn't increase the vapor much.
What I did was pull a piece about 4" long and roll it as thin as a pin head about an inch, pulled it through very easily until it got to the unrolled, still puffed fully part past I was going to snip it. I then snipped it, soaked it for a few minutes, clouds galore with as good a taste as the EVODs with cotton wicks. I think I'll stick to cotton ball on the iclear 30s and yarn for the iclear 16s and EVODs.
Hope that helps.

Thaya is around, she likes to lurk, she's like a Genie in the bottle call for her she will show up!

Aren't you like supposed to rub the screen or something? According to FairlyOddParents and other significant texts, Genie Law is pretty much a stickler for that kind of stuff.

I'm betting you're the kind of person who wants 4 wishes.

At least 4! And yes rubbing the screen might conjure the Genie Thaya, however, you might be rubbing her the wrong way! Legend has it a Genie can be very particular about how to rub them. According to the Fairlyoddminds that I was able to question this can cause headaches. Not good to give the Genie a headache!

Of course all of this could be an old wives tale, I wouldn't know I am not in that club and will never gain access to it. So, I caution anyone calling the the genie to rub the right way!

I've gotten my other 5 30Bs changed now and just wow what a difference in the quality of the vape. Draw vs vapor has increased DRAMATICALLY so a light draw gives me about the same intake as a strong one gave with the silica,a much more satisfying experience. I'm not one looking to be a human fog machine, just about what an inhale on a cigarette produces with about the same effort. I was truly considering giving up vaping altogether before soon because it's too much work for eddy I get in return.
No not going back to smoking, just starting to look at life from a non inhaling anything but air perspective sooner than my original plan but if I can keep things like this I may continue to vape until June, my original plan, then look at things. I've already got a batch of 0 mg juices scheduled to arrive in the mail tomorrow, about 2 months ahead of schedule

I wish your 4 wishes get granted.

Well, I got down on my hands and knees and crawled under the desk and was trying to figure out what is plugged into what to do that modem/router switcher roo thing. Spent about 20 minutes down there and trying to trace wires back from power strip to back of computer to backs of other stuff. Can not get to back of computer and router unless I move the desk out from the wall so I now have to wait until tomorrow. I accidentally unplugged something and don't know where it goes. But I can still use laptop and be online so I do not care.

Took me almost 10 minutes to crawl out from under desk and stand back up again. Oh boy. Maybe I do not really need a printer. lol Will try again tomorrow.

was what i wrote any help at all? lol. and you will figure out what you unpluged later. wireless phone base? a light? phone charger?

my wireless printer is plugged in my bedroom (big mistake.. loud noisy thing in the room a baby sleeps in. bad idea fyi) because i didnt feel like wresling with my cords or making room on my desk. its wireless, so as long as its in the house (or even on my block..) i can print to it.

I may make the under the desk thing a life project tomorrow. That is where my desktop computer has been set up for 10 years and every time I got a new computer or the Cable Company came out to replace the modem or router there were a couple of cords left plugged in one place but nothing on other end, or not labeled. It is a tangled mess under there. I may just take it all apart and start from scratch.

Top, I am going to take you up on your offer of help just in case I get it all apart and can not get it back together. I will PM you.

I just do not think I can go for 3 or 4 days with no computer internet connection. Such modern problems. I do not even have a cell phone I am so backwards. lol
