I guess I'm just having problems making wicks. I've tried not oxidizing with the peter K, but it didn't tastes like the same Pluid :/ Not sure what to do. I'm having to tilt a lot with my current setup... Some people say they don't have to tilt at all!

juice burns help wicking immensely regardless of oxidation. Try 3 or 4 cycles of saturating the wick with juice and then lighting it on fire and letting it burn itself out. Mine is overwicking at the moment because I didn't have enough mesh left to make a solid wick. Can't wait for my new mesh to get here so I can roll a proper wick.

Er, missed that she was gone.. Check with her next of kin for usage, they would legally hold the rights to it.

Awesome fisty, i think a koi would be amazing. She actually had better ones, that one was just one that i found in a folder of stuff she gave me to look at that happened to be in black & white, the problem is most of hers are in color. I will check w/ her son (my cousin/nephew) as he has most of her stuff now.

Happy New Year!


Who wants to give me the run down on what I missed.....

Been pretty quiet in here.

Face got arrested. Face got released. Spoiler- mistaken identity, but still got to experience texan penal hospitality for ~24 hours. We are now going to have to come up with a wrongful imprisonment LE and / or a LE LE (Law Enforcement LE).

Typical day.

Find one or several you like that he is okay with you using and run it by me and I'll run it by the engraver if it'll fit well on the tubes. It'll be wrap around so we could use several different ones around the tube if they're the same style. Color probably wouldn't be a problem if the image has enough contrast to be readable when converted to grey-scale.

The one on my shin unfortunately wasnt inked by her because i got it done after she passed but the design is hers, she gave it to me as a bday gift and had told me to just let her know when i would want her to ink it, i just never got around to it. Its my only tat, i actually got it done during a visit in japan from one of the guys who was teaching her, kinda crazy though as he was obviously a yakuza tat artist :laugh:

Koi LE would be worth F5ing for..

Just shipped my standard away, kind of on a whim traded for a SS GGTS, hoping for shipping conformation from him today also.

Havent played with a GG at all, but thinking a nice synth will be cool on her eventually. Hope it was worth the trade, if not I'm guessing I can resell it for enough to buy another standard.

edit: to many lol's, gotta break that habit.

yeah, expect to see this on the news as I am sueing the whole county for $1,000,000, my lawyer said my chances of winning are 99% as I wasnt asked for my ID, wasnt shown a warrant, pretty much everything they did was breaking the law. I was also a MAA in the military (military police) I'm pretty sure I dont have a record lol, I thought the whole thing was a joke until I actually got to jail, my best friend is a police officer, thought he was pulling a prank

My brother is/was an MP...now he is a Drill Sergeant @ Fort Leonard Wood.

That's a lot of cash...iHybrid factory incoming.

Hello fellow hybreeds (I love that I can say that while vaping an iHy finally)! I have a not-so-quick question for all of you. My grandfather was recently diagnosed with emphysema and has been a long time smoker for 40+ years. He has tried to quit a multitude of times, and I have recommended electronic cigarettes an equivalent number of times. He has just come off of a year long break from cigarettes and I just caught him smoking again today. So I'm at the point where I'm just going to buy him one and demand that he use it. I know he'll like them, but he's the kind of old timer that hates technology and hates the internet, and so I have to take the plunge and simultaneously make this the easiest transition possible.

That being said, let me give you some of my background. I started vaping on a smoking everywhere cigalike around 5 years ago. I moved from that to Blu and then another cigalike and got frustrated with the technology and quit altogether (this was before I joined ECF). When I found out about battery mods, I reentered the vaping world after I started smoking again and went straight for a Prodigy V3. After the prodigy I went to Provari. From Provari I have gone to the iHybrid. As you can see, I haven't really been much of a "collector" over the years and I really don't have a lot of experience with other mods. I know Ego is a great starter, and I was just going to order two (one for my grandfather, one for my grandmother who isn't ill but does whatever he is doing), but I realized I would be ignorant for not asking this community what they would recommend. So here's what I'm looking for:

1. $60-$70 price range
2. Safe battery technology (if it is a built-in battery like an Ego)
3. Minimal maintenance
4. Vari-volt
5. Compact
6. This one is probably going to be a hard one, but does anyone know of pre-made atomizers on the market that do not use silica as their wick? I don't think it's safe and I'm sure it would agitate his lungs as they are now, so if someone knows of a quality atty that doesn't use it I would freak out. If not, then this list needs to be edited for a compact RBA setup that I can setup for him every few weeks.

Also, he has been smoking Marlboros his entire life, and is currently on Marlboro lights. I would like to find a juice that is as close to this flavor as possible. I personally haven't vaped a lot of tobacco juice and so I don't have a lot of recommendations.

Please, if any of you have advice for me, I would greatly appreciate it. It kills me to see him doing this to himself. He can barely breath now and it's obviously been worsened by the smoking. :( Please help me get him off the stinkies for good. Thank you Hybreed family!!!

On a side note, Face that whole New Years fiasco was hilarious to read, but I'm sure it sucked while it was happening. Sue the crap out of them!
