The Lurker Thread

[JoeyC]

Long long day, glad it’s over. Came home and made kiddo brownies for his special day tomorrow. They smell good and I want to dig in. hard to believe that 11 years ago on this evening, I was sitting in my recliner, surfing the internet and had just polished off a pint of Ben&Jerry’s cookie dough ice cream. Wasn’t feeling well, so I went to bed early. Woke up at 1 am on the 4th and my water broke.

Happy birthday to your son


Good afternoon everyone

I’m a little jelly but our temps took a drastic drop into the mid 60’s today! Hot again tomorrow though

Glad you enjoyed your pizza Lori, we had Chinese tonight.

Good night lovely and handsome Lurkers

Hope everyone is having a good evening

 

[Sara Love]

Good evening lurkers

So glad you’re getting some rain, Dale!! I’ll trade you on the temps. Chinese. Mmm.

Haven’t had Pizza Hut in a long time. Yum!! I used to make Pizza Hut pizzas and breadsticks as a second job in one of those wholesale box stores (BJ’s, Sam’s, Costco) with the little food courts. It was a fun job.

We have a freeze warning too. It’s dang cold out there. Hate this time of year. I need sun and warmth.

Kiddo won his first indoor soccer game, scored two goals, went to Mighty Taco (his choice) for dinner and then came home to celebrate with the brownies. I behaved myself and shared they were soooo good.

 

[LoriP1702]

Oh we have plenty of warm days left.
No worries there.

Too early for freezing temps though!
So sorry to hear that Fran and Sara!

Congratulations to kiddo Sara!!

Sweet dreams all.

Good morning lovely and handsome Lurkers

Good morning Dale and lurkers

Brrrrr!!! Had to turn the heat on this morning. Got down to 63 inside last night.

Ooooh and I got vape mail yesterday. My spare extension cap and ring came yesterday for my provari’s. Which reminds me of yet another question, if the time comes and no button top batteries are to be found anywhere, my provari’s are useless, correct? Because I only have mini’s and I’ve been reading through some threads.....you can not use flat tops batteries in the mini’s? Only the P3 and radius use flat top?

I’m not sure on the Provari but I wouldn’t count them out just yet

Thanks Dale

Good morning all.
It was 70 in our house this morning when I got up.

Sara, that's my understanding regarding the 2.5's/minis as well.
If you got both extenders, ring and cap, you should be good to convert that for an 18650.

 

[LoriP1702]

@Sara Love

18650 IMR Button Top?

 

[LoriP1702]

...and then, what Joey said a few pages back too about the others.

I think there is something about the inside/board, or top (inside the 2.5) that won't take a flat top....
I haven't tried, a flat top, I don't have any, but just what I read.
The other models you mentioned yes.
I'd forgotten how many different darn models they'd made.

Thank you, Lori

My biggest concern now that I have the extension ring/caps is....what are the chances of the 18650 going away as well?

The solo takes that same 18650 battery, right? So the two kinds of mods I have for my future are the provari mini and the solo. Did I put the nail in my coffin?
Ya’all might want to pm me your addresses, so I have somewhere to ship off all my vapocalypse stash

I’ve read so many different threads the last two weeks my head is spinning and I’m thinking I read somewhere that Baditude said absolutely do not try to use flat top and more importantly do not solder a button on top of a flat battery. I might have made up the first part of that.

 

[LoriP1702]

Yes Sara, same here.
I don't think 18650 button top will go away, but who knows.
Like I said, I'll worry about that then...I'm *over* what's all going on.

I have plenty to get me though for a very long time...all the thinking has made my brain hurt...thinking and trying to plan ahead....I did THAT back in 2016...I have the two extenders...I'm going to wing it and hope for the best.
