Bo that's why I quit buy all the latest and greatest until they have been out long enough for me to read all the likes and woes. It got too expensive and my junk drawer got too full. I hate two things with a passion. Leaks and dry hits. Besides as long as I got Fusions in a tank I know I'm cool because nothing has matched them yet. Came close but that's it.

Hey I finally heard from Army. I told him we all missed him. He's due to be getting out soon.

I'm up :) Good morning all. I just finished my shopping spree! Woohoo! I ordered from 3 different places. I spent $375 but I should be all set with everything I'll need to vape for at least a year. I got a 1300mah Smoktech Winder, a new eGo charger (mine has stripped threads) 3 more AROs, 50 heads for the AROs, A eGo lanyard, 5 510 attys (the IGO-L was out of stock), some drip tips, a 808-eGo adapter and about 20 bottles of juice from MBV all 50ml 6mg 50/50. Now about the only thing left to get is a Envy.

Oh I'm finally getting my iPhone today too. :)

Well good for you Den. You have lots of Vape Mail coming.

Yup I imagine it will all arrive on Monday. It's going to be better than Christmas. Oh I just ordered another 1300mah winder had to find somewhere that had a black one in stock. So it's going to be all VV for me from now on.

Since I went with notcigs gear, pretty much anything else is relegated to the "use when loss is likely" zone. The Buzz Pro has been an absolute beast, consistent performance, stands up to nasty physical environments. The first summer when they came out, the one I use kept diving into wet concrete, typically spearing into it fusion-first :) Between that and many falls onto hard surfaces, it's just something that I expect to work. Keep the connector reasonably clean/dry, use a sealed adapter if you're playing with leaky cartos/atties, and life is good.

Morning ladies and gents! Don't faint from the shock...I had to get up at 7am to take Katie for blood work. An alarm clock after 4 hours sleep is a real pisser :ohmy:

5, I really love the flavor I'm getting from this i16, I just need to disassemble the parts and inspect them to see why it's leaking. I took the clearo and the ego adapter off o it last night, set the tank upright on a paper towel and it was dry this morning so I'm wondering if it's condensation building up at the drip tip and then dripping down into the center air tube. I have my BP set to about 4.3v and it's delivering a very warm, flavorful vape, so condensation would make sense. Tanked Fusions will still be on my regular menu, but I'm liking this i16 so much that I want to find and fix the leaking. I do need to seal my adapter, but at least I know how to disassemble my BP for deep cleaning :)

Great news about AG!! Thanks for sharing it 5!

Nice shopping spree Den!! I still would love to have a vv pipe...love the look of a good old fashioned wood pipe. Don't love the idea of having to use a kick to get vv!

Thanks it was great to hear from Ag.
Bo that's how I feel about this Protank. At first I didn't like the cooler vape but with these proto heads it is a beast. Mass vapor and a little better taste than the tanked Fusion has. I don't know what I'm going to do when these heads are used up. Cry I guess unless I can get more. I'm running these at 5 to 6 volts so I get excellent vapor/taste and warm how I like my vape.

Mark I'm like you. I have other gear I use but I haven't found anything that can match the constant performace and quality vape puff after puff than a BP. I got some that are close but not all day long, puff after puff. The other ones they make (I call them the wanna be's) that boost the power from a 3.7 to whatever just don't have that solid puff like the BP. Don't get me wrong there are some mighty good PV's out there but as good as they are they're not as good as the BP.

Well I had a brilliant moment (they don't happen often!) and dug out my VVPV. Switched the i16 head to the i30 tank and slapped it on the VVPV. Much better balance, not as top heavy as it is on the BP, and the 16 head is rocking!

I inspected the i16 tank and can't find any leaks in the tank itself. I'm fairly certain it's building up in the plastic drip tip and then making it's way down the center tube. The 16 tank needs an ego adapter, but the 30 tank doesn't...and I have a 510 sealed adapter for the VVPV (808 top cap on it) We'll see how this one goes, but I'm happy atm :)

A lot of times when I have leaks it isn't from the juice but air leaking in causing it to lose vacuum then the juice comes out. Fill it up puff real hard without firing it and watch it in the mirror. If it has an airleak it will bubble where the leak is.
