Stand and be kounted. https://www.amazon.com/Lipstick-Organizer-24-Unbreakable-Lipsitck/dp/B017XGA01M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1499702560&sr=8-1&keywords=TWING+Premium+Acrylic+Lipstick+Organizer+24+Space+Storage+Super+Crystal,+Unbreakable+Lipsitck+Storage

Kat, thanks for the link to the lipstick stand. I will check that out. I really need to come up with a better way to show off my stuff without taking over every inch of my home office.

If you do not have two spare drip tips, it seems I have hundreds, although not too many as fancy as yours!

Also on page 10, they don't have that "Temperature-dominant" checkbox at all in their screenshot

I’m sure checking that temp checkbox makes the temp display for 5at profile. I’m pretty sure that’s how I fixed my issue before. I setup a dna a long to,e ago and copied out the settings and now just import stuff so I’m not expert. I have t check. . There are. A lot of videos on escribe. If you check YouTube that may help you. Sorry I don’t know off hand.

Chelzie, I like to store unused tanks on unused mods. They become the perfect holder for the tanks and some drip tips.

Another option, and pretty inexpen$ive is an acrylic stand like this one. I love it. It's tiered and holds a FEW of my tanks...... :blush:

I use this exact one and got it at Wal-Mart along with 2 other acrylic stands that have 3 levels and are nice and wide to accommodate my flavors.......can see them at a glance instead of having to hunt for them

I do understand the complaints about the dim screen. In bright sunlight it may be hard to see.

I got my 2 LavaBox's yesterday. Over all I'm pleased. But geez, there's no way I can read the screen while outdoors in sunlight. Even standing in complete shade, the only thing I can barely make out on the screen is the large text showing either watts or temp depending on the mode I'm in.

I switched to profile #3 (I think) for SS316. My build is 7 wraps of 28g SS316, 2.5mm id coil for .7 ohms. I have temp set to 415f and 20 watts. My atty is a KFLV3-mini. The vape is fine. But like some else said, it has less TH than my kanthal builds.

It's noticeably lighter than my Radius which makes it a bit more pocket friendly.

Bear in mind the DNA 75 chip alone costs more than we paid for the mod

Exactly!

Temp control very first impression- where is my throat hit? Too smooth, too cool. This is going to take some fiddling around. SS 316 28g 2mm ID 6 wrap reading around .5 and 460*.

I'm set for 20 watts at 415f. If I raise the temp, it also increasing the TH. My goal is to stay under 450f for the temp setting based on some reading here on ECF about VG breaking down into nasties above 450f.

Am I correct in saying that it is impossible to change the screen such that the Watts number is not the biggest one on the screen?

I find the mode navigation very frustrating and non-intuitive

1)Too many steps to change max temp

In temp mode both of mine display 'temp' in big characters and is easily adjust w/ the +/- buttons. They came this way out of the box. I don't use eScribe ... waiting patiently for the Mac release of it.

I think I read somewhere that the screen brightness comes set to the max. For me it's not a problem. I don't need to look at it if I'm outside anyway. I just set mine at the watts I want to vape, lock it and vape.
Ditto!

Yesterday I dug out all my vaping gear from the tubs under the bed. I was getting fuzzy about what I had and wanted to count them and organize them.

The first tank I got after PT’s was a Lemo and I liked it. So when Deeming got started I picked up another 7. By then they were going for around $8. Got a KFL and ended up with 12 of them, all for less than $10. Same with Provaris. Got 6 really cheap just before they closed down. And some Silver Bullets, mostly from classified. A few Picos for $24. Grandson gave me his collection of Nautilus tanks when he joined the Marines and I got a few more bases and cage tanks cheap. Lots of spare parts for everything.

Still have a bunch of PT's and Spinners that I hardly use any more. Probably start giving them to smokers.

I was wondering how different my collection would be if deeming hadn't come along.

Getting lots of a small number of items makes sense if you want a collection that will last forever. If something breaks you can cannibalize the parts. Getting old stuff means you don't have to spend much.

I didn't look around much. As soon as I found something I liked I started accumulating them. As it happened I liked the first 2 tanks I tried.

If Deeming hadn't been around the corner maybe I would have one each of lots of different tanks and mods. Might have been more fun. Maybe I would just have 2 or 3 and replace them with something different when they died. Might have found different tanks that I enjoyed more. It's interesting to see the different ways people go about it. I love when people put up a list of their collection.

Still, I enjoy the stuff I've got. Can't complain.

I am still using the same setup that got me of the smokes. If it wasn't for my lack of trust for the manufacturers and the government I wouldn't have a stockpile and have a whole bunches of more moneys in the bank.

I started stockpiling aggressively Nov 2015. Started with rebuildable tanks and decided on the Tobeco Kayfun V4 for the stockpile, Then a bunch of mechs with kicks so I would never have to worry about having a vape.

Right now I have 3 tanks and 3 mods in the pile. KFV4, STM and pieced together KF's. Mods, SVD2, Provaris and Defenders with enough nic in the freezer to do me a while.

That doesn't count the in use stuff. I should be good for about 8 years before I have to think about rewicking a coil

I got my one stop diy flavorings. Unfortunately I thought the blends would be more ready to go so I didn't buy any sweetener which most of these need. What the sweetener that has the artificial taste - that's EM right ? Seems like most good juices attempt to avoid using flat out sweetener and use other flavors to sweeten. Like marshmallow etc.

What would you diy fans recommend to sweeten slightly. ?

Lucky shot is the closest to ready to vape and I still feel it could use a little vanilla and sweetener. It's very crust heavy.

Blue Pom smells like nail polish remover and definitely needs sweetening.

Cinnamon roll is interesting and I like that it's a lot of roll and not much cinnamon. But it too needs a little sweetening.

So what should I use to sweeten and avoid the super artificial taste many juices get ? In my reading marshmallow seems to be a favorite for that task but I'm open to suggestions.

Thanks all.

You're more than welcome, deary.

Please tho, don't worry that I might not have a couple more drip tips. I'm pretty sure I can find around 27 for each of your mods, and each of your tanks. :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

Yeah, I gots a fewz.

Here's for you, so that there's no OCD getting out of control for either of us.

Look at all those KARTO tanks! :lol:
