I ran/programmed a few Cincinnati Milacron's over the years in various shops :)

I'm purdy much a maintenance machinist at this point, only have a manual mill and lathe now where I'm at. If I was in my old shop doin' mold work I had access to some equipment that most shops don't have...

Assembled their T Lines in the shop and out in the field. Left the programming up to you smart collage boys..hehe :p

Oh,, you heard about that one, did you? Yes, it happend last night just after I left for the evening. They were having another of their cloud chasing contests and I guess someone miscalculated something with a huge stacked 26650 mod. They got everyone together to show us the results of that and it was really unrecognizable as a mod or battery or anything other than a pile if cinders. Glad nobody was hurt, but they did a battery safety thing first thing this morning.

Probably vaping at 0.0 ohms with a rip off mod with a wonkey fire button. I would bet on it!
The stupidity that goes on now with the cloud chasers is more than dangerous imo it's terrifying!

A modded fire button! (i have no idea what that means..)

And cloud chasing is safe IF you know what you're doing. The reason there are SO kits for Reos is precisely because cloud chasers pushed the envelope, lung burners as Rob calls us.

It also makes them more efficient electrically, so everyone benefits.

It is terrifying and totally unnecessary. I vaped on a setup from a guy from innevape. He was using a mod I don't remember, although he did have a Reo! He had a Mephisto wrapped at .35 and one of his juices and the vape was incredible! I could see going down that far, but I am really uncomfortable going down any further. I don't see the need for it. I'm not going to play russian roulette with something I stick right in my mouth. I believe in being super safe.

Key words "If you know what you're doing" I agree. Idk how many threads I seen where noobs were taking it up.

Me too pwheeler. One of my Sonys got hot on me when I first started with mech mods and I only was at .5 That battery went into the recycle bin..lol

i have today had the misfortune to meet a lady sold a mech and rba who has no idea. If i ally that to the nonsense at the vape Blast, i'd say today is a rather bad day for vapers, because if you don't regulate it, someone will.

If everything goes just as intended sure I can agree to a point, but things don't always go as intended, when components are pushed to their maximum capacity things can go wrong rather quickly...

I enjoy purdy decent sized clouds, quite satisfying, but I also don't go below .5 ohms...

These cloud contests are not helping our cause IMO...
