Agree with ya on that one Andria. Zappa is an excellent guitarist but I just can't get onboard with his self imagined humor when it comes to the lyrics. And seriously, why didn't someone tell him that naming his kids Moon Unit and Dweezil was not a good idea?....:rolleyes:

No kidding... maybe someone like... their MOTHER???? :facepalm:

Naaa ... more like
better than the bee gees



I would rather listen to every song ZZtop did, every minute of every day for the rest of my life, than even 5 minutes of Zappa.

Thank goodness Radius Release Day has come and gone and our poor little Puffer Thread is back to normal. Got home from work and had 9 pages to catch up on...

Things got a little quiet here during the feeding frenzy...

I'll never EVER understand paying $200 for something (Radius) when I could have FIVE somethings for the same price (CoolFire IV). But I guess if one is rich, one looks for ways to throw money away. :facepalm:

Ohh well you like that horrible Shisha Straberry as as well :)

Yes, that yummy delicious shisha strawberry that actually tastes like real strawberries instead of artificially-flavored strawberry koolaid.

Actually the most like real strawberries is the Flavorconcentrates strawberry. It is real strawberries. However it is neither really strong nor sweet. Just like most strawberries one eats from the grocery store.
It has a bit of that raspiness that I get from real strawberries. Why I like sugar on my real strawberries.

I like Smuckers strawberry jam much more than real strawberries.

I know where you're coming from but to be honest, I spent more on my ZNA because I absolutely love the look and feel of that device. The worst part is that at that time (18 months ago) the ZNA was the "Premiere Device" with it's whopping 30 watt DNA board. My how times have changed...

I prefer something more bluesy with some soul....


What a coincidence! The album "Bridge Of Sighs" came up on the media player in my truck today as I was making a bank run. Killer album from a guitarist who never really got the respect that he deserved.
I don't believe in morals. I believe in bacon tacos !!!
I didn't know that they were mutually exclusive.
Ooh!!! Wait, i have vape mail to open!!!

Brb
Me too...
Lawn. Over here the housing blocks are so small and the Mac mansions so big....the rooves almost touch..... Who has room for lawns. Plus we are regularly on water restrictions.

I have a large block with a creek running through the bottom. We used to be in the country but the metropolitan boundaries caught up with us, So sad, So suburban. My quiet life evaporated a few years ago.
I live in the middle of a city (Denver CO), but right next to a ravine where a creek runs through the city. My house is right at the edge of a development that was built in the late 50's, when Denver was growing like mad. So I have a 10,000 sq ft backyard that backs up to a wooded area.

I long ago got tired of trying to grow that much grass, so I did something very popular around here (Denver is actually in the desert) called xeriscaping. Basically, instead of lawn, you plant trees, bushes, flowering plants, etc that don't need as much water. We just went throught the driest September in our history, and I used less than 2000 gallons outside all month, keeping 12,000 sq ft of plants alive. Including 1500 sq ft of lawn. I left a "micro-lawn" out front. Which I haven't actually fertilized in years.

We are extremely fortunate. We have a bush reserve on the other side of the creek and we have kept all our native trees. So we have a lot of wildlife. We were obsessed with golf for many years and our only flat green area is a practice golf green which hubby meticulously manicured. When the heavy water restrictions came about we switched it to synthetic. The rest of the block is steep and rocky. I would never live anywhere else. It's our little paradise.

Vape mail. From Madvapes.

:w00t:

I bought a bunch of stuff after I asked everybody out there about tootle puffing tanks. I bought most of those recommended, and more than a couple that never came up.

I bought a couple of these. They look cool. A standard bottom coil tank that looks like a cartotank. From Smoktech. Haven't tried them yet.

11170-1_2.jpg

A couple of these as well.
11225-1.jpg

A Smoktech GCT.
11746-1_1.jpg

And a Smoktech T-Dux 4.0
11338-1.jpg

That's the only one I've had a chance to try yet. I washed it with hot water from the Keurig (I have all of my packages delivered to the office), filled it, let it sit for an hour, and then vaped some max VG juice. So I'll review it now.

It works. It looks cool on pretty much any stainless or silver colored mod. I wasn't impressed with vapor production, and it doesn't seem to like the high VG juice, either. Flavor was very good until I managed to burn the wick. Wasn't wicking the juice very well. When I get home I'll dissect and autopsy. Will report back later.

sorry have not tried any of those tanks.

Someone did - at least as far as Dweezil is concerned. Zappa had to have it legally changed because the nurse refused to let him put "Dweezil" on the birth certificate.

I am finally in the right place. Down to three types of gear. Carto & tanks, Sophia's & Tanks and everything else with BVC coils.

This morning I got the Egrip working with BVC coils

These Aspire BVC (non nautilus) coils are in the following.

Billet box with a billet bridge
Carto tanks with a vapeprod adapter,
EGrip with the pin changeover trick
Anyvape davide, cero, genitanks with straight coils.
K1 tank with straight coils.
Silo lite tank (too heavy for me)

So many options :p

sorry have not tried any of those tanks.

It has been my experience that most tootle puffing gear does not play well with max VG. Of course there is always exceptions to that but for the most part, in my experience all the tootle gear I used did not like max VG.

Yeah, for $200, I'd be a LOT more inclined to the SX Mini M class, and those are starting to come down. Maybe by the time my 2 yr no-smoke-a-versary rolls around next July, they'll be under $100. Well, I can hope anyway. :D
