We had a blast last night. Good old Maritime hospitality. I didn't know anyone when I walked in but sure knew everyone by the time we said goodbye. Let's just say it was like a vape met without the vaping (Classy you know what I mean). Vaped the whole evening and not a peep from anyone.

We will be returning home today at our leasure as you know I'm retired and Ruth is on vacation. I will reply to my e-mails sometime this evening. BTW someone sent me some vids there is no sound, well at least there was no sound from the SIL's computer.

I will try to get the orders out today as the PO is closed tomorrow. No promises ;)

Switcher,

E-mails have been responded to, including the ones I couldn't hear originally. All small packets will ship tomorrow unfortunately the PO was closed before we arrived (Sunday). Regardless small packet folks ;) don't get an advantage over folks that paid FP. Nothing will move until Tuesday. Thank you all for your continued patronage, this WE was just what the Dr ordered.

On a positive note, I only have to check myself once a week because of how thrilled my physician was with my progress and control over the disease :) We also have a boat load of products coming in, not to mention an IKV shipment :D

Because Isaac was down for so long, he quickly depleted his stock in record time with folks doing an end run at IKV. To ensure all our customers have a chance at the greatness we will institute quotas on IKV products until steady state at IKV is once again achieved. We believe the good of the many outweigh the greedy buggers out there! Sharing is nice :) Once steady state has been achieved, we resume normal operations once again.

Hopefully Isaac will be able to get things up and running at capacity soon. I want to be sure I can have a steady supply of my new favourite carto. :) Now that I'm over the worst part of my cold (fingers crossed) I'm going to try slotting one for a tank. Not that I can taste anything right now, but still.

DO NOT slot, pierce :) or you will flood them

Really? Damn. All I have is a Dremel. Might have to go out and get a saddle valve after all. Unless I'm really delicate with the slotting and only cut 'til a small hole opens up.

I gotta find me a good place to get a proper carto punch -- preferably one that can deal with the 801's collar.

Folks need to start thinking outside the box. There are many ways to pierce a carto that doesn't necessitate a saddle Vv or fancy carto punch etc... I use an awl with a hammer and it works just fine. A small drill bit will also do the job quite nicely 1.5mm available where you buy your dremel parts etc...

Yep the hardest part about using an awl and a hammer is keeping it steady, easier said than done. I've seen a few creative, "out of the box" methods including putting the carto between the pages of a book. The idea was sound, but now my wife's copy of The Life of Pi has holes in it and the binding is coming apart. So instead of buying a $7 saddle from the start, I ended up having to buy a $15 book (and a $7 saddle) :D

Got our shipment in from IkenVape:
  • Mega fusions LR
  • IO6s in 1.8, 2.5 and 3.5Ohm
  • 901 SS in 1.8 and 3.5 Ohm
No gold V2s at this time.

As expected Isaac's customers did an end run on his store and many products are not available. For the time being we at JRCT have placed limits on quantity to prevent such end runs here. JRCT is a Canadian vendor who looks after Canadian customers first and foremost. We are sorry for this inconvenience. Once steady state has once again been achieved at IkenVape, the qty restrictions will once again be lifted. Remember...

<< The good of the many outweigh the needs of the few >>


We have also received our non resistance silver wire in 30 AWG or 0.010"

Several orders will be coming in this week, keep a look out for them :)
