If it does not get the dude vaping, I do not know what will. LOL. I plan to buy a few high quality juices for him including NETs (I'll solicit suggestions here, he'll probably need some other flavors, he seems to like mint but not menthol, and cinnamon) so if anyone has ideas about strong-ish but really nicely made flavors, please give them up so I can get "Christmas" ready, LOL. I've never ordered online juice other than WTA, so I have no idea who makes some of this good stuff, and I DIY and I don't like tobaccos, so I've never tasted any really good NETS and such....

If he doesn't at least TRY it, I throw up my hands from here. But, I'm also making him purchase life insurance, despite him being 10 years older I was pretty sure I was gonna die first. Now, I'm not so sure. Maybe I'll put that in the card-- "Here's my gift to YOU, if you don't try it, your gift to ME this Christmas will be life-insurance."

LOL, it's not exactly of the Christmas spirit, is it??? :lol::lol: The things that man forces me to do....

Fantastic NET:
Big Spirit

Great tobaccos (one is in UK but is SOOO good):
Kentucky Maplewood Blend
The Nokomis Range

I personally DIY simple tobacco, and these are my 2 favs:
Dunhill-SC
Tab Blended-HS

Good thread here also (plenty of reading LOL):
Natural Tobaccos - Part Deux

And he should have an insurance policy anyway... don't play with fire!

Thanks TT. I have one through my employer, his doesn't offer one. Oh believe me when I tell you I have told him to get one many, many times, but given his breaking his neck twice, being a smoker, and a few other issues, the rates are.... Not good, is how I will put it mildly. :(

He's also obsessed with Whole Life Insurance which to me is only useful if you are already wealthy and want to hide your wealth somewhere or whatnot. So insurance has been quite something, though I suppose TECHNICALLY, since I am his spouse, I can take out life insurance on him as apparently my mom maintained life insurance on my dad for several decades (only my dad refused to die, LOL) after their divorce. IDK. We are going to have to do something, though, I really don't want to pack up the minimal stuff I really care about and go head to live in my mom's basement or something after providing him with a pauper's funeral....

I'm not in my early 20s anymore, and that sounds utterly horrid. Maybe I will demand that my own tobacco savings be applied to life insurance, though I'm sure it's going to be more than $100 a month....

In any case, thanks for the recommendations for juices, as well. :)

Whole/variable life is a great option (IMO) but only after you have your term policy in place that will provide for your family in case you die, but I'm sure ya'll have had that conversation so I'll simply say my position on that and bow out :)

Thank you, it comes from a book on Christian tattoos called "He bore my marks, Now I bear His". A very small number were published and I'm fortunate to have a copy :)

the mini volt is cute. ... Buuuuuuuut I have had three of them.

one died after a month. one has been indestructible and still going great.

the new third one was listed for sale on eBAy. last month my sister needed a new mod. she fell in love with my Istick Pico so I sold it to her then pulled the miniVolt out of the drawer of things I couldn't sell.

I took the brand new never used MiniVolt out of the box. DEAD AS A DOORNAIL, and would not charge.

COV HAS OR HAD serious QC issues on that mod.

the third MiniVolt was bought very soon after its release and has become a real work horse.

I love that mini volt, it's adorable. :) I'm not getting one (or anything! Back on the straight and narrow!) I just spent money buying a mech mod from the classies to give to the Husband for Christmas. I'm hoping he will/will not fall for it, but it plays to his strengths, (it's gorgeous and mechs will be a puzzle to him) and surely he will not be able to resist a mech mod or so I tell myself. With that said, if he doesn't, I'm going to learn to use it myself, it is That Awesome. So, at lest I am (sort of) now purchasing for others.... Gotta figure out what the kid wants/need (our nuclear family doesn't participate in the whole... let me tell you what to buy thing) and he's crafty, so it will be hard. Plus, everyone else... Sigh. :)

The weird thing is, it's sort of reappearing and disappearing.... Like, I think when you first post or quote, you'll see it, but if you go back to the thread the hyperlinks are all fine. IDK. It's all good with me, I LOVE knowing that I'm off-topic oh-so-much less than I was. Though in some ways, I look upon this as a golden Opportunity.

Hoppity-hops!!!!! :) :) :)

I kid. I will behave.

I mentioned a while ago that I bought a clone of the K@yfun 5 and I've been using it since this last Saturday. I made a 1.10 Ohm wire and put it on a constant 4.2 Volt d3vice. Holy cow, I'm being killed with flavor. This thing is no joke. I have had to dilute my stuff more and more as the week is going by because it's just too much. I'm impressed.

Yup, got the SXK, the one that holds 4ml glass and 5ml metal. It's pretty nice. Got it for $20.99 with free shipping. Grabbed an extra glass for $1.99 while I was at it. The glass came in a cool little round tin that had a foam filler to protect it. It only took them a week to process my order and get it to San Francisco.

I use the SXK KF v5 mini, like it a lot. From FT. Now I have my eye on the upcoming SXK KF Prime. No vaping purchases for me though, about to hit a huge pile of bills.

Yes...The Never Ending Bill Pile...Remind me but you're a MTL vapor ?...And are you always winding your own coils or do you use the pre-made ?...I'm leaning towards the Mini and it seems as though I'll be able to get pre-made 1.5(+-)coils fairly easily...Also on the juice control is it all AOK ?...I normally use about 50/50 just a little higher on the PG...Sorry To Be So Wordy !!!...Trig :D

I got it from 3FVapes, first time I've used them. I was very pleased with their customer service. I have a bunch of set ups but I've been favoring the N@utilus X at 1.80 Ohms recently. Also a couple of different squonkers. And a nice 1.40 Ohm ceramic atomi$er from V@poresso. All MTL for the most part.
