Deciding that the Russian 91% was crap. Until two or three years later realising that the top chimney o ring was too big. I just thought the Russian was the kind of atomizer that leaks all the time. Derrrrrr !!!!!!.

PS
Although in my defence it was the o ring that came with the device so.......Turns out it needs an o ring with an outside diameter of 8mm, cross section of 2mm and an inner diameter of 4mm (instead of the 8 x 1.5 x 5 it came with). Most of my kayfun clones need the same too. My authentic K4 takes the 8 x 1.5 x 5.

You guessed it, i have got a big bag of those !!. Enough to last my K4 for a thousand years. That's what happens when you refer to the K4's paperwork for specs. None of them fit any of my K4 clones, which is what i bought them for in the first place. The clones came with 8 x 2 x 4's.

Anybody interested in replacement o rings > Simply Bearings Ltd ~ Oil Seals SKF ... TIMKEN KOYO NTN NKE TRULOC Needle Rollers Taper Rollers Rod Ends Oil Filled Bushes Loose Balls O Rings Grease Plain Thrust

Very expensive for one or two, but the cheapest i can find for a bag of 50 or more. Nitrile O Rings: Replacement Nitrile Rubber Seals & O Rings

Let's see....hit a tvf8 really hard with the top halfway closed, half the juice in the tank ended up in my mouth. First build on an rdta and I shot flames out the driptip, burned my lip and mustache, twice in 5 mins. Forgot my dead rabbit wasn't a tank and vaped the cotton dry, really bad. Took my mod to work with nearly dead batteries more than a few times, smoked a few marlboros until I got home.

When you put a vapeband on your tank because your curious if it would actually protect it in a drop. Then weeks later the vapeband slips off into your bed sheets and you can't find it and just figure it will turn up later and you will put it back on, only an hour later to drop your tank for the first time since you started using a vapeband and the glass cracks.

Last wednesday, got the kid to soccer training. Turned off the car, and while idly fumbling for the ebook I noticed a crowd clappling.

Funny thing, there's not a crowd in sight. Nor is the radio on. The next second I was jumping out of the car with a burning feeling on my hip.

Note to self: Always turn the mod off when putting it in the pocket.

Credidi me pulchrum felem vidisse...

    Nothing permanent... she ran to the bathroom and flushed her eye right away. She was in pain for quite awhile though. But none of us will let her live it down. It comes up constantly and this was years ago. lol

    as well you should. sure she'll be glad to know the laughter has spread to another conitnent.
    carry on:headbang:.
