In other news, WHAT THE HECK?

All of a sudden, for no reason whatsoever, my Russian is hitting like, well like I wish it would all the time.
I didn't rebuild it - I was GOING to, but it seemed to be working better than I remembered so I decided to leave it alone and refilled it instead. And now it's DEFINITELY just hitting better.

Do you find a kayfun/russian build has a "break-in"?
This is ready-x-wick, not cotton...and the builds nothing special - maybe a bit low ohms if anything.
It DID drop 1/10 it was 1.3 or 1.4 but now it's reading 1.2.
(Somewhat surprised that's still firing at 3.6 on the ProVari - I have to be near the amp limit)

Not complaining, just confuzzled.

For me it seems to perform best between 1.2 ohm and 1.4ohm. That combined with it being wicked just right. From what it's done for me that's having the wick shoved toward the back of the chamber- where the wick almost makes an "S" shape inside being completely clear of the juice channels. I've found those small things to bring out the best performance.

I can't help you with why the Russian is hitting better, but as far as the amps, at 3.6/1.2 you're using 3 amps and it should hit. The limit for the V2 & V2.5 is ≈ 3.5 amps. I have a 1.2Ω coil on a KFL+ and have vaped it at 4.0 volts. (There is one juice I sometimes like very hot.) That's 3.33 amps. I imagine the battery drains faster, but I uses the minis in 18350 mode and rotate them, so I haven't noticed. One of the things I love about the ProVari is that it will shut down if I'm doing something stupid.

Being a total tech geak; none of that sort of thing really bugs me anymore. But, I grew up with it. My dad was one of the first graduates at Tulane University for Cimputer science. They didn't have a software or programming degree offered yet, it was all under one umbrella. But he's a software engineer for the oil industry. I can't remember NOT having a machine; Knowing anything I do on it or with it can be seen by someone. At the same time if it's nothing interesting no one is going to take the time to look at it. I'm still a fan if online privacy. In fact I use a third party browser on my Idevice for that very reason. But, i know Uncle Sam can turn my camera on and look at my fat face whenever they want. They could be looking at my fat face right now. Maybe I should say hello.
Something to said for old tech. The original cell phones can't be tracked or listened too. The older ones; back when it was the big heavy cell phones in a bag used an analog signal. It's sort of like am versus fm. Analog was more secure and traveled farther but the quality wasn't as well-like am radio. The newer signals have more quality but are no where near as secure and don't travel as far.

Exactly!
When I'm here, most of the time, I've got a desktop and a laptop directly in front of me...so using the iPad would seem silly.
Plus, being "company equipment" I pretty much presume anything I do on either apple device may end up being evidence at some point. LOL

I don't look at any websites or do anything on work equipment that I wouldn't do if the owner himself were sitting there.

Thanks! Total impulse buy! It's nice, probably gonna get a kick in a few weeks. Although I like the 18500 form factor a lot (*) more than the 18650. I won't get into full time dripping so I dunno, I just wanted to be able to taste rear my DIY juice without using a tank.
But I definitely dig it!
I'm set now.
Have my provari, MVP2, mech and eroll. Done with the mods till the P3. Now I need to start getting more RBAs other than my kfuns and patriot.
And to think I just started vaping to quit smoking

There was no affront taken, keep teasing, it is part of why I came here. Was just trying to explain some of my problems. Worse yet is posting something I meant as kidding but taken personally. Still haven't figured out how to make my meanings come across correctly. I learn slow but incompletely. lol

For some people "j/k," "i keed (I think that's how it's spelled)" or something like ":p" is needed at the end of a post to indicate teasing or sarcasm. I, however, don't take any posts personally, even if they are meant to be mean.* I assume every post is teasing or sarcasm, unless it clearly isn't

*My response to mean posts:
1) The poster misunderstood what I intended. I will apologize.
2) The poster has issues. I will leave them alone.
3) The poster is a jerk. They are now on my radar. Depending on if they meet my Nimrod Criteria, I will either leave them alone or mess with them. It is often most entertaining to keep track of them and mess with them when they least expect it. Be advised, I do not hold grudges and rarely mess with people later. If they don't respond in a manner I find entertaining, I will stop. I am not a troll, I am looking for playmates.
