My thoughts and prayers for all our Texans. Another incomprehensible tragedy. I hope no one around here was personally affected.
Thank you for the prayers Eskie. The Texas Grocery Store Chain (HEB) I work for lost one of our partners from the San Antonio District and several of our partners lost family members.
Prayers to all the families in the Sutherland Springs area who were affected by this tragedy.:nun:
Prayers also to those families who faced tragedy in New York and Las Vegas. From these unspeakable acts we will rise together, stronger.

Lotta toys.

Mesh rda. In SS TC. As a dripper. Its good and its fun but not super great.

Pulse mod. This thing is great. Just great. Wow.

Engine Nano. On the fence with this one. When it works its ok but she'sa dry hitting mutha. Gotta work on the wicking.
I will think I have it wicked right and it will hit good for a couple of days then its dry hit city, I check the wicks and they are fine. I thin the tails until it is just a few wisps and the same thing again. My next step is to thin my juice to 50/50 and see if that helps.

I'm gonna be in Texas in afew weeks. Was so sad to hear this news yesterday.

Was gonna be in NYC soon but we canceled after this last attack. I don't think I'll be going down to the city anymore which gives me a sad.

Kinda scratch Vegas off the bucket list as well.

Just gonna stay up her and keep a tight grip on my guns.
You will be fine in Texas, we are all armed. We got your back. I bought my mom a new purse for Christmas, now I have to return it and get her a bigger one because she wants to carry her pistol in it to Church. Sad to think that it's probably a good idea.

The Sutherland Springs story hit me pretty hard. I lived in Texas for about 5 years or so back in the 70's. In between San Antonio and New Braunfels. About 30 minutes North of that town. Just some absolutely beautiful country out there filled with great people. I still have a lot of family in the area. In fact my sister and her husband just moved to Virginia recently to take care of my ailing mother. They lived South of Seguin. She's Baptist and goes to church every single Sunday. A lot of days in between Sundays she's there too. So I feel like any one of those people could have been my sister, or my brother, part of my family. Or a cousin, an in law, a friend, a loved one. I'm not a religious man but stay safe and take care. Know that everyone across the country is thinking of you guys.

Had this problem myself, used Rayon in it, wicks great, well it's actually a combo of Ray and cotton.

Name drop and pics tomorrow (sub ohm) Can't put the thing down, ease of use, coil in, vape, like the good old days :)

Hmmm, any leaking? How's the airflow? Is their an RBA deck? Okay I'll wait:(
The Nano may be a pain to wick but I have the Engine and it wicks great every time, no issues with it, Just the Nano and The Crius RDTA give me fits on the wicking.

Yes it is a beautiful area and I love New Braunsfels. I don't have family there but we have our country house and property not far from there and know a few people in the area. Most of my family and extended family are in Church whenever the doors are open and my mother attends a small, country Baptist Church very much like the one in Sutherland Springs so yes I can't help but think what if....

Just trying to sober up which is the delay, well, and testing the tank, been out of it for 3 weeks lol Now that doesn't mean it's tainted my view of the tank.
No leaking, airflow super smooth, no rba but I bought it purely as, slam a coil in and vape while on holiday but I've come back home and still can't put it down.

Tomorrow (2 days sober now) I'll post my review :)

You are an incorrigible tease Rixsta!
I am but not as much as a woman can be :)

Leg it......

I just bought a 26650 mech mod for no real reason other than it matched a tank...that I bought for no real reason. Well, OK, it looked like it would work like a big dual coil KayFun so I grabbed it. Anyway, I've been using my 18650's in it because it came with an adapter and I don't have any 26650's yet. I'm not going to go any lower than 0.75 Ohm and I'm not going to go any higher than 1.25 Ohms. Trying to settle down to right around 0.90 on the thing. Should I worry about Voltage drop at all when I'm going to be using it for MTL at low Wattage like that?

Also I'm thinking of getting two of the iJoy 4200 mAh at 30 Amps CDR (per Mooch). It looks like I could go a few hundred mAh higher and lose some CDR on a different battery, but that doesn't really seem worth it since this is my first mech mod and I'd rather give myself plenty of safety cushion on the Amp rating. Seems like my battery will last longer when used gently as well. What do you think, is that a decent battery to use?
Sorry for the late reply, yes the iJoy 26650's and Aspire 4300 mAh 26650's are on the mooch top performer list. I just picked up a pair of the Aspires for my Aegis and they work much better than the Hohm Grown 26650's I was using in it. The iJoy 26650's have lived in my LUX since I got it and they are still working great.

I wouldn't worry too much about the voltage sag with the low powered vape you are going to be doing, the sag comes into play with higher power. At 4000+ mAh you should be able to vape for days at 20W and lower. I really wish I could go back to the days of a 20W Kayfun enjoyment. ;)

Give it away... Pif that Nano ASAP... Save yourself the unneeded grief! You'll thank me later! ;) :lol:

Thanks. I was concerned because Moochs 26650 list doesn't seem to be updated very often, but I was hoping that there just hasn't been a lot of change. Sounds like that's the case. I have two iJoys in my shopping cart on RTD. Just waiting for a 26650 case to be in stock because I'm paranoid about battery storage. IMR has them, but RTD also has 28 gauge wire that I need to keep my dual coil Big Buddha close to one Ohm. So I'm using an 18650 with an adapter for now. But...10 ml tank with a 4200 mAh battery at 12W-20W...lol. This sucker will take me through a work week.

My KayFun 5 clone does sit well on the mod too. It's stainless steel and the mod is black, blah. But other than the color they match pretty well. Actually I grabbed the goofy Big Buddha drip tip and put on that KF5 clone just now. Not as bad as I thought. I'll post a pic. I mean, it's still goofy, but not bad.

Nah, when it works its great. It is just once in a while it does not like my wicks. I'll mix a new batch of juice next week and thin it down that should solve the problem. That and wispier tails;)

The Big Buddha was a great tank, the Buddha Mini wasn't so bad either.

Put em up. Grrr:mad:
I'll give it a good home gofishtx. PM me if you want to get rid of Nano.
I would gladly give it to you but I like it too much... I'll get the wicking figured out. Thin wispy tails right?;)

I'll buy her if you get tired of her. Big shoulder and thin tails barely tucked in.

Ha ha what I call a Maltese Cut. It makes the wick look like a Maltese's head. I have 2 and one is wicking great, I have a 3mm coil on it, The one I'm having problems with has a 3.5 mm coil. I may have to drop my coil size back to 3mm. I know my Crius RDTA doesn't like the fat coils either.
