He Vapes, She Vapes, We all vape. I don't see a problem with the plural. WWF's database is obviously incomplete, IMO.

I actually submitted it to see if they’d add it!
Similar to my phone always autocorrecting vape to cape, hopefully these words will become more common and not be considered a spelling error!

Is the receiving pin, on the mod, spring loaded?

Is there an issue with the threading?

Just other ideas that I have run across.

You know, it’s funny, this is the first time I’ve noticed this happening. It must be the tank as look how this tank fits just fine (although it’s slightly crooked)

I have the same problem with one of my provaris. There is a bit of space below the bottom of the tank even if I screw it tight. Interestingly it's only with one of my 7 provaris.

So I ordered this silica wick to try to emulate the wicking in the Hohm Skillet’s factory coils (they’re quite spendy so I’m trying to rebuild them). I just want confirmation that this stuff is safe?
I’m assuming it is, otherwise they wouldn’t sell it but you never hear of people using this stuff
$2.58 Rectangle Silica Wick for RDA RTA RBA Rebuildable Atomizers (20-Pack) 20-pack - single rectangle size: 80*50mm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
I got a pack Sept 2016, used it to rebuild the Eleaf Icare coils, worked ok, but a PITA to work with. If you haven't already ordered it, I'll look around for what I have (I think I only used 1 sheet) and send you some to try.

Hello Tootle Puffers !!!...Sorry I haven't been around lately...I do think of you all and have been meaning to stop in and say 'Hi'...I've been rather distracted mess'in around in the Model Train World trying to catch up on missing knowledge and get a Layout up and running...15 years...

@oplholik Nice to see you this morning and glad to hear you're on the mend...Pretty scary stuff...Ya' know...I'd bet'cha some of our 'Wiring Experts' around here would do quite nicely in the MRR World...Splice'in Wire at Light Speed...Building 'Structures' with all those Tiny Doors & Windows...Spending lots'a money on a never ending list of little goodies to be acquired...Where 'Shinyitis' is concerned...MMR's got it covered in Spades !!!

Hope Everybody's Well...I'll Try And Not Be So Much Of Stranger...Best Regards...Trig :)

Does anyone have any tips for reassembly of this? Or just throw it away? The top silver piece keeps slipping off, I’ve been at it for over 10 minutes and this is my last ditch effort before throwing it away (I almost just threw it out the window in frustration!)

I have Virdigo (sp?) and that was my very first thought, but after the second one, I started thinking, ehh, maybe not.

I had your experience in my mind when I stood up Saturday morning and about fell over from dizziness. Luckily I grabbed onto something in time to stop the fall. It took a few hours before I could walk without holding the wall. I had also been dizzy and nauseous the night before, but just went to sleep.

A few years ago I had open heart surgery (valve replacement and bypass). So, your story scared the c**p out of me. I went to the emergency room just in case.

It turned out to just be a sinus problem. Although a serious enough one that I'm glad I went. I'm especially glad I went for the simple reassurance about my heart.

never throw anything away - you may be able to reuse the parts

I wish I didn't agree with that statement, I still have stuff from 2009 that I haven't pitched, like I'm going to use it for anything. :facepalm:
I do throw stuff out but I make sure to harvest screws, glass, orings insulators, pins...

So far saving orings has come in really handy

There appears to be a gap between the base and the top of the peak inside of, the slab. If you get that base shoved all the way down in there, the bottom pin should screw up into the threads on the positive. Gently use a pair of padded pliers and you can squeeze that down in there. Remove that center pin screw first.
