OK, I've watched a video on the iSub rba (not the same one I saw before), and the guy had NO problems. Of course, he was 20 years old, so maybe his fingers work better than mine... he just used a quick flick to bend the lead into that L-shaped slot. I just need to keep practicing, I guess. This is gonna come out sounding strange and maybe a bit conceited, but I usually succeed the first time with anything I try. When I FAIL the first time, it pisses me off. LOL! And I didn't really fail, but it's not up to my expectations. I can still vape that coil. I'm sure my next one will be better, and the one after that will probably turn out perfect. THEN I'll be singing the rba's praises. Right now I'm still grumbling at it... ;)

Yabbut, I don't wanna BUY it, I wanna DIY it. ;)



I've been reading them until my eyes are blurry, trying to figure out what's going on. Not that anybody really knows anything for certain yet, but I'm gathering information. I'm not going to be able to spend much time today on that, but I read when I can.
CASAA put out the phone number to call.

    Hmmm, wonder what they would say if thousands of people started calling daily, and saying "Yeah, I have questions about the deeming. Why does the FDA want people to keep giving money to Big Tobacco until they die, when there is a better option?"

    IMHO contacting the FDA is an excersize in futility. The FDA is well aware that millions of people quit smoking from vaping. It doesnt matter to them. What does matter to them is the loss of revenue from taxes and the greasing of their palms from BT & BP.
    We all filled out the petitions and all that stuff and it didnt make an ounce of difference. Our government still came out with the harshest regulations they could come up with and cloaked it in lies. Its all to protect the children they claim and I call BS on them.

    Oh, I don't for a moment think it would accomplish much, but I'm all for annoying them with that question until they get tired of hearing it.:D Besides, I'd like to see people compile responses to it and fill social media with the most idiotic of the excuses they make.:)

    I wouldn't waste my time trying to call and ask a question of the biggest, fattest, bloodsucking parasite on the planet. It won't do any good anyway. That Zeller guy is a "consultant" for Glaxo Smith Kline, and he has to protect THEIR stop-smoking aids. I've heard people say BT isn't in on this, but I don't believe it. BT and BP together (even though they SHOULD be at odds with each other) is a :censored::censored::censored:.

    What makes no sense to me at all is that I've heard nothing but "Smoking is BAD for you. QUIT!" from "the authorities" for the last 30 years, and now that people are quitting by the millions, all of a sudden it's a bad thing. So that whole "smoking is bad for you" line was BS right from the beginning. They didn't want us to quit, obviously, because if everyone stopped smoking, who would they tax? As an example, just a few years ago, SD put a $10 per carton tax on cigarettes to pay for "The Fight Against Obesity." Whuuu??? They taxed the smokers? Yup, because they wouldn't DARE try to put a tax on junk food because everyone would be in an uproar about it. But the poor, downtrodden smokers, who never complained, just paid up because we were all so dreadfully addicted, were the perfect target. And now they're losing their cash cow. There are numerous other examples of this, of course, that's just the most recent one that left me totally gobsmacked.

    (And no, I'm not forgetting the Tobacco Settlement payouts, and the fact that all the states spent their money before they got it, and NOT on "stop smoking campaigns," or medical care for sick smokers. They surely wouldn't want to bite the hand that feeds them...)

    Well, this is interesting. :) Have any of you seen this thread? The second post has a copy of the court filing against the FDA by Nicopure:

    Nicopure Labs files lawsuit challenging FDA’s vapor deeming ban

    I just read the whole thing and wanted to clap! It's worth a read, if you haven't seen it. Now we just need a few more companies to follow suit. Ha ha, pun intended. ;)

    I've also heard the Halo has filed one too! Let the games begin!!! If every company files suit the FDA will have it's hands full! We can tie them up in court and push this back further!!

    That build is just psychotic! :shock: :lol:

    I can't believe it gets any juice to the middle of those coils, must burn through the wick there regularly. I am amazed it even gets juice at all with the hard right angle wicks at the edge of those coils. :lol:

    That build needs to be put on a 50mm Alliance Fat Boy or similar. :thumb:

    Since we're back on builds I put 2 Wismec notch coils in the Boreas. Even in that it's somewhat of a tight fit. They are 8.80mm wide and the ID is 5mm. A single coil is around .23 ohms. Because they are made for the Theorem the leads are pre bent to fit. I did straighten them out so they would fit in the Boreas. I think the leads are made of nickel because they they are very soft and I did snap one off screwing it in with the grub screw. I think next time after I straighten it I will bend it back and twist the lead to make it stronger. I'm not sure if that will lower the ohms or not. These things are pretty big and come pre-loaded with what looks like KGD cotton. Running it in dual notch coil it is reading at .13ohm on my Cuboid. I have it @ 70 watts and going between 420 - 470 degrees. The flavor is really good and needless to say Clouds Bro Clouds!

    I am going to run these for awhile and see how they hold up. Here's a couple of pics. Like I said they are loaded with cotton so I had to trim a lot off.
