I know. Larger screw heads would be a big help.

I woyld prefer Phillips heads

Know any that would fit @ToolmanTexas

All my KF-Lites & KF 3.1 ES's came with phillips screw heads to trap the wire....so you're looking for the same only with larger heads?

Correct.

Larger heads will be easier to trap the leads.

If i could get larger heads that trap the leads more securely i coykd go back to Rayon wicks.

Ummm...If I win a lottery up here in Canada,I'll move to Florida for the winter months and become a "Snowbird" I'd go back in the summer months to visit with family and ol' friends.:)

OH NO - "
You" should just move down here, then have your family come to visit for the winter months . . . Look at all "We" have to "offer" here in USA, especially to any and all "aliens" and/or "immigrants" let alone anyone who is actually "indigenous" to these lands . . . :facepalm: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just Sayin' . . . ;)

Uncle,a while back I think it was you who asked to report back if adding more pg to the ratio of juice helped rid a phlegmy wet type cough?
I increased my pg ratio from 50/50 to 55pg/45vg and for me it does help reduce the wet/phlegm cough somewhat.The next time I mix I'm going to try a batch of 60pg/40vg to see if it further helps.

Could have been . . . Either way -

Give me some money and I will be right there

Here Ya' Go . . .

86% percent of the people in MY home town. Shall I recommend yours as a place to stay? ;-)

Well that might be a problem, however - there's a very friendly spot near-by:

Depends on where. We hope to get back down to Miami and the Keys one of these days. Good birding there!

No Problem then - I'm in Fort Lauderdale . . . Just let me know when and we'll meet for coffee (or ? ? ? ? ) . . .

Not in the next two years.

Well - It will just have to be in 2019 then . . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

Foods Containing Glycerin

AND - Then there are all the Medications . . . Glycerin - brand name list from Drugs.com

Don't do them much anymore as they are only catering to liquids rather than hardware, and the clouds are actually too much for hubby and me!

Ya' THINK . . .

Just one of the major reason I don't go to vape meets anymore . . . :cry:


@Uncle probably saw you and didn't know who you were and vice versa!

Could be . . . Matter of fact - When I was in NYC a few years ago, I actually went to a vape meet to connect with a ECF Member . . . However, although we scheduled a time to meet, it didn't happen . . . As I found out later - all we did was cross paths - he and his girlfriend were leaving and I was coming up the stairs . . . :shock:

We'll just have to do better . . . :rolleyes:

Someone recommended the EZ RTA by UD.

It wont work. Its s dual coil atty. I prefer single coil attys.
That was me. It is dual, but has an adapter... for $10...

I ordered the screws you posted the link for.

Since i only have 1 1/2 hands regular screw drivers slip out of the slot. Phillips hex, torx and Allen screws dont have that problem.
I have 2 good hands. But, I hate those tiny little regular screw slots too. The screwdriver keeps slipping out of the slots. Then I have to hold it under the light with my glasses on and put it back into the slot several times before I'm through getting the job done.

100% agree... I have the flat head ones and they work really well but I ordered the allen key ones that @hp600x posted, as those might be even easier.

they are like $2.50 over at healthcabin, i believe

They have totally removed free shipping from the clearance items. That ruins everything, the deals are no longer as good as Fasttech or 3FVape or dozens of other China merchants, without the free shipping on clearance items. That was a massive mistake, they are going to lose a whole lot of business. It is annoying how they change the rules every week. I tried to use my reward points as I normally do, and they again changed the rules the day before so I could not. HealthCabin changes like the wind, I will give my business to a more reliable China merchant. Totally unreliable merchants.

I stick with phillips head. Got enough stuff in my vape tool box without needing more tools for just one task... and needing to dig around for the right one... :2c:
For allen keys I have one set that is in a single tool, so don't have to dig around for different ones... just grab my allen wrench tool.

I literally noticed this bait and switch like 10 minutes ago. AND it's not just clearance items that are no longer eligible for being included in the $30 free shipping computation. I have a resin pico in my cart that is $36, not in the clearance section, and it is not being included in the free shipping either.

It is terrible what HealthCabin has done to loyal customers. I had a pile of clearance items in my cart totaling well over the $29.99 to get the free shipping. This same order was totally free shipping last week. Now they say I must "add" $29.99 of premium expensive gear to my cart to get the free shipping. So I added a resin Pico 75 watt that I have absolutely no use for, to get the free shipping.

Guess what? They will ship the Resin Pico for free on the slow boat. They still want to charge me outrageous shipping prices for the clearance gear! Unbelievable!

How do you say Dirtbags in Chinese?

Wow, that shipping charge change makes my three recent orders likely my last ones from HC. Using DHL for free shipping on some orders may have been a mistake on their part, making the free shipping option seem too costly. Glad I could stock up on Ego Ones and VTC Minis while the gettin' was good!

Honestly, at this point - after an ugly incident with fasttech and the defective vape gear I've received from multiple sources including my local b&m and private sellers - this is simply the sort of thing I have come to expect. I just factor in the distinct possibility of disappointment and spend accordingly.

It's just like pre-determining your budget before a trip to Vegas

High shipping cost is why I stopped using HC years ago. But, the free shipping for 29.99 or more had me planning on getting some eGo Ones and VTC Minis. I guess I waited too long. But, my eggrolls and spare coils were more urgent. Cest la vie!

I think the customer base would have been more receptive to somewhat higher clearance prices instead of removing free shipping on clearance items. I've had good experiences with Fasttech and 3avape's free shipping, so I'll stick with them.
