Thanks, WNC...glad to hear it. Also, Faceless and members, I've noticed the banter about "sub-standard" Kenthal. I just want to say that I put links on the Reference site when someone provides a good vendor. If there's vendors on there that I should remove...someone should let me know. Or perhaps I should delete them all?

Just let me know. I don't want to give someone information about a bad product. (Gulp!)

Thanks!

Okay, so after some adjustments, if I hold it straight up and down till the wick runs dry, I get a nice even orange glow all the way from where the positive wire touches the wick, down to the ground screw. That should be good as long as it's wet right?

Sounds good to go. If worried just tilt at your preferred vape angle and test for whatever your preferred draw is.

tried to watch Prometheus, it just skips through my ps3 server, anyone know a better way to watch torrents? Is apple TV any good for that?

No idea on Apple TV (I know the older had to be tinkered to get all file formats to work) but maybe a cheapo HTPC might be in order.

Edit: If you're just streaming from your comp WDTV is another option.

Good deal

Yep, Tversity media server. It used to be free, not sure anymore though.

Seems to be good at normal angles now. May re coil tomorrow though, as it's a bit tight on the mesh itself. I can't move the mesh without pulling on the coils a lot.

Boxee box, wdtv, popcorn hour are all good options. Apple tv not so much. This is from a guy who owns all of them. If u set up a simple media server and put all your stuff there, wdtv is the cheapest option. It plays everything.

No, Apple TV sucks.

It's probably a bit much of a discussion for here but we've setup some pretty cool stuff over the years.

Mac mini hooked up to a very big screen with surround sound that automatically downloads anything new(Movies and TV shows), automatically unrars, sorts, and puts into a media program(plex). All works with a universal remote.

All we ever have to do is tell one program what series we would like to watch or our criteria for new movies and the programs we have handle the rest of the mundane stuff.

can I plug a usb in wdtv and play mp4?

It should. Just make sure you buy a model that says mp4 on it. Not sure if there's older models that doesn't support mp4.

Edit: Just to warn you the GUI is god awful. I find it super clunky. Once you're setup it doesn't bother me as much.

Since I actually feel like being useful lol....An easy solution would be an 80 dollar Roku box. They do an excellent job of scaling and you can use them for Netflix, Amazon Video, Hulu

AND...

They'll play media files from a USB drive on your TV in very good quality, up to 1080p with surround sound.

These little Roku boxes are the reason I initially canned my cable.
