Looks like I'll be F5-ing like crazy at the end of tomorrow's work day.

Thanks Drew and everyone else wish me luck.

Good luck, Brandon. Rest that F5 finger now.

I was gonna sit tight and hold my excitement on getting the email notification....but since the proverbial cat is outta the bag....well then:

WHOO-YA!!! :banana::banana::banana:

YAY! Congrats, NCVLady!

Oy, only if you're very sleepy, man. :laugh:

I was happy to see you didn't get anything from Isaac that I want. Just got my last order today so I'm set until Drew releases those clear thingies.

Ah, don't sell yourself short SK, I always find you entertaining and in blog form it suits you. I saw your post when you wrote, but I was in the middle of doing a Drew order for those Dual Coil 510 Jumbo Cartos and some 801 cartos and my multitasking capabilities leave little to be desired. So I gotta admit, I still have more reading to do, but I am enjoying it seriously!

Thanks, Cuse. More of a journal thing I didn't ever expect to have an audience for so it is what it is.

I know I've probably asked before, but is there a coupon code for nhaler?

CG, saw your post about the dual coil carto, and well, shopping again...

Girl, I wish I could help ya but my husband jokes that when stores see me comin' they take down the Sale! signs. :laugh:

Cuseguy! :laugh:

Am I the only non Twitter person??

Yep but don't let it bug ya. I'm pretty adamantly opposed to Facebook participation and not because I'm an anarchist or have moral reasons for being so. I'm simply too lazy for it.

Edit to add: I've got two fat (not phat) reports to power through tomorrow so I'm going to eat some fast food, fall into a slumber and wake early to work my way toward a weekend of leisure. Happy vaping all!

Nope- count me in. I just don't get it.

I actually created a twitter account 2 years ago just to see what all the hoopla was about. Still didn't get it. Funny thing- last time I checked my twitter account, I had 50 followers and I've never written a single thing LOL

Okay, is it possible a bad atty can kill circuitry?

I was using a new 2.0 ohm 510 when my Big Daddy stopped working. Hmmm, I thought, 4800 mAh doesn't last as long as I thought. Popped it on my Darwin, vaped once, picked it up to vape again and the battery symbol showed depleted though I'd just disconnected it from the wall charger.

I put two freshly charged batteries in the Big Daddy. Still not working. I popped the batteries in my Pila to see if maybe they were defective. Nope, they're currently charging.

Okay, this is the part that has me barely holding onto my temper. When I fired up the Darwin after it'd been charging for an hour - and while it was still connected to the wall charger - the screen didn't light up. I tried again, the battery symbol showed with a line through it and now it only lights up now and again.

I am well and truly ....... How do I find out if my Darwin is fried or if there's some sort of reset feature I'm unaware of. Oh, and don't even bother to bore me with mechanic, engineering or math talk. Just tell me: is there protection circuitry that should have saved the device from an effed up atty?

Edit to add: I'm ...... at the atty. Damn 510s are evil after all.

Okay, so I'm getting ready to stock up on atties & cartos and I know that all LR/STD/HR resistance perform well on the Darwin. I'm purchasing what I normally use for my 3.7v pv which is mainly LR (801 & 510), however, is there a preference for any other resistance (i.e. STD or HR)? Hope that made sense?:confused:


Ooooh, SK, just saw your post! Now ya got me scared to even use 510s on the Darwin!8-o Maybe I'll just stick to my good ol' never-let-me-down 801s!

My fave - and I'll bore anybody who'll read it - is the 2.5 ohm Ikenvape 801 mini, closely followed by his 801 full size 3.5 ohm. Then comes the Cisco 4.5 ohm and his 2.0 ohm. 2.5 to 3.5 ohm seem to be Darwin sweet spots, imo.
