I don't know how to take pic from my computer but it is on my "to learn list"

I took some very bad pics with my phone but doubt you'll get anything out of them.

Ok - that didn't work did it?

So i just wanted to chime in on posting pictures:

1) generally unless you have a high quality webcam separate from your computer, a web cam will not give you a better picture than a regular cell phone

2) most, if not all, smart phones (android or iphone, possibly a newer black berry) will give you a decent picture

3) any digital camera with a megapixel rating of 4 or above will give you a good enough picture if you use enough natural light (no flash)
-most new cameras are 8mp and above, but 4 is all you need for a standard sized photo

4) if using a film camera you can get a digital copy of all the photos on a cd from walgreens etc.

5) the biggest issue with using camera that does not have zoom or focusing is that they are generally made to take pics of things that are 4.2 feet away from you, when we want vaping pictures we usually want closeups so if your camera has a macro mode use it, but this is why most cell phone pics come out slightly blurry.

(off topic i know, but it might give some of those wanting to add better pictures and better idea of their options, and by no means am i claiming to be an expert, i just took a photos class once lol)

got the ce4s from Smoketek today. Speedy as usual. They perform exactly like ce4s so they aren't going to change anyone's mind if you have some of the revised ones that don't leak. Good out of the box. No leaking so far. The whistletips are just as I had hoped for. Very comfortable. The hole is much more open than the 801 whistle tips so I don't need to widen them and there isn't any major condensation issues.

Ordered two for ohming purposes and they both are spot on- 2.5 ohms. It's not a big difference as far as warmth though. I still have to get used to it in the kuwako because I have bent all my 801 hard whistletips and I don't think these will be as easy. I tried with the round ones and it just stressed the hard plastic too much.

It's ok, Mookie. I understand the need to clean house every once in awhile. Especially because you are on the search for your vape.

The ce4s that smoktek has are pretty much the same as everyone else's, I imagine. Except I believe the ones elsewhere that are 808 fall more in the 2.8 ohm range. 2.5 won't change too much but I like the idea of the whistle tips and that they are coming from hangsen. Even if they aren't making them themselves, they still bring us good stuff. I'll let you know in a couple of days if these are any different. :)

I got the 2.5 ce-4 clearos from Smoktek today and they are working very good so far and I like the screw on whistletip better especially with my Kuwako. If these continue to perform this good I will definately buy more. They say they hold 1.6 ml but they actually hold over 2 ml. Vision 808 Echo/VGO Transparent Clearomizer, 2.5 Ohm

That is too funny Charlz, We posted the same info at the same time. lol I went back to check something and saw you had posted. I was wondering if you had received yours yet. I really like these and I'm getting used to being able to see how much juice I have left being as I'm using clearos with other pv's too.

It's nice too because 2ml in a clearomizer vapes clean away and lasts as long as 3ml cartos. If it's getting dry, you can turn it up and get every bit of goodness out of these. These are breaking in nicely. So far I've been chain vaping and occasionally get a little bit of a hard noisy draw but the flavor is nice.
