The Provarinati Saloon IV - Back Alley

Susan W. · Jan 8, 2015

I doubt my sister will have any regrets. Until this year, she only would come to visit a few days during Christmas. She never calls my mom on her birthday or Mother's Day. I try because she is my sister but I think she's just fine with me not in her life. I know what you mean and it's all good.

Oh, I know how hard that can be with the not wanting to eat. Me, I can eat most anything almost anytime. But my mom in law is tiny and has a lot of trouble wanting to eat. It is really a struggle for them. She went through a couple rounds of kemo and they had to stop it because she lost too much weight.

My sister and I have a similar dysfunctional relationship. But in my case, we just do not like each other, no matter how hard we tried to. It really is sad but it is what it is.

I wish your sister could tear herself away to spend the time with mom. She will regret it later. Nothing you can do about it though so do not waste the energy you need for mom. You are a good daughter and your love for your mom shows.

I am not wording this very well but I hope you know my meaning is good.

Okay. Here comes the incredibly dumb question time. As most of you probably know by now, my mind does not process math. The concept eludes me. Thank goodness I am able to figure out my simple coils/ohms/volts to run my R91 and Kayfun.

Why do you have to go such high watts to vape a sub ohm coil. I would think that you would use lower power on sub ohm. When I vape a 2.0ohm coil I go higher volts on my Provari Mini than I do with a 1.5ohm coil. Where am I getting lost? If I go too high on the volts it burns my juice, every time.

I know that this is going to drive all you experienced vapers nuts. I apologize in advance. This is also why I will never attempt a mech or sub ohm. I would be a danger to myself and the general community. I would be the faceless one on the front page, seriously.

ETA - I truly do want to understand this.

girl...I know how YA feel! I don't think its a dumb question...I've asked so many REAL dumb questions that after I post and read them back, I wish I could delete them! LOLOLOLOL

And I'm with you on getting this whole thing confused. I understand it, apply it when building coils then forget it by the next month. (Bright, shiny objects...my mind can only hold so much) I have to re-read it every time I get a new topper, wire or try a different build like dual coils. But once I get a build down, I don't change it for each device/topper. Like I know with my Chalice on a REO, I like 28g K-A1, wrapped in a 16g Luer @ .60Ω. Approx 5 wraps.

Now when I finally pull the trigger on the Kayfun 4, I will need to read it all over again LOLOL. And I have two REOs, so if I can do it, you DEF can do it.

So glad the kitty came home. Amazing how he knew where to go since you haven't had him very long. Hope your grandson will be home soon too.

The good news is it's not freezing here. It was probably 75 degrees today. Really nice outside. The bad news, my mom is still critically ill and her birthday is tomorrow. Finally had to call my sister to help out a bit. My stress level is maxed out.

Prayers to you and your family. Take care of yourself too cuz all this stress will put such a strain on your health as well

Oh Shari...also wanted to add, the REO has a safety feature in the spring where it will collapse if there's a short. I would know, it happened to me :facepalm:

The Challice III has a VERY small space to work in. I built my coil and it read .60Ω on the dot, right where I like it.

Put the top cap on and tried a quick vape and it acted wonky and topper got super hot. Then POOF, wouldn't work and heard my batt rattling. I had one tail not cut short enuff, hit the top cap and shorted my REO. Lesson learned. I always chceck my build now on the netter first with cap off, then again with cap on. Had that been a full mech mod, let's just say...not good.

Yeah I bet they do. But it's pretty cool to see turkeys living in New Jersey you don't see many unless you're in the woods.
