    Well, all the time honestly.

    But I get your point.

    From the local sawmill down the road. ;)
    Well then at least based on my understanding, neither of you are buying 2x4s technically. I was under the impression that the dimensions on lumber are based on pre-processed lumber which is why the typical 2x4 is approximately 1/2" less in each dimension. This is not the case?

    A 2x4 is 2x4.

    But dryng and making them pretty eats up some.

    Depends on where you buy it. Ask for '2x4 true' and you will get a unfinished 2"x4"

    Sounds like when I needed some replacement boards for my deck and found I really needed to ask for 5/4 boards to match the 1 inch boards on it.

    DRAT! I just hate it when my voltage collapses.

    If you didn't make the electrons spin so much, they wouldn't have gotten so dizzy and collapse.

    Oh great... I finish the maths right in the middle of the afternoon doldrums.

    Fine I'll just science over here by myself.

    Going from 26 to 28 gave a 15% increase in output
    From 28 to 30 gave a 17% increase

    The 28 radiator was 10.4% more efficient than the round 28.
    The 30 radiator was 14.5% more efficient than the round 30.

    Back to Chinese food then.:pervy:

    You are really waiting on your CF from Europe? Did the price work out OK? They should have deducted the VAT from the price as you're not required to pay that.

    @Rixsta

    I hate to admit this but I'm starting to enjoy having a dripper on the desk next to my recliner in the theater at night. For the majority of my Vaping I'm using the Hurricane at 16W but every now and then I'll grab the Velocity and take a 80W blast.

    Your fault!! and I thank you. :D

    You did? I missed it. How did it alter the efficiency of the radiator?
    It was only ~2% increase which I felt is not worth it based on the extra effort it takes to make a shape that complex.

    The real diference that the Radiator has over a round coil is taste. It's subtle but now that I'm only using Radiators in my ADVs a round coil tastes a bit over cooked. With fruit flavors it really stands out, with bakery flavors not so much.

    It was actually not a bad price. And neither was the shipping. I'm excited because the "colour" <------notice how I spelled it hehehehe ------ is blue.

    I like the finish on my CF, but have the black. I'm sure the blue will look great given the way the metal on it is finished.

    Looks kind of like a pipe organ.................your graph...........................
    Cool mint n cucumber is a great vape. So simple but sooo nice

    I went back to my parallel coils in the limitless, they are great.
    For some reason I thought you had launched that one. Oh yea, it was the tornado. My bad. :evil:
