Quite frankly, there isn't much I wouldn't put past the government to do. I didn't think my health insurance would be taken away either, but it happened. I would rather be prepared. If nothing happens, fine, I'll have plenty of nic in my freezer to last me for years and plenty of mods to use. I'll be vaping cheaply for a long time. But I'll still be vaping, no matter what comes to pass.

I already told my husband, if I do manage to get down to a very low level of nic in my vaping, and it goes past about 4 yrs on the nicotine in my freezer, we can just use it as pesticide. :D

Sorry you quoted me before I finished editing the post.

I've spent a lot of time in the deepest darkest woods and I agree it's good to have back-ups when supplies are a month away.
I'm in Adelaide ATM (400km from home along the goat track they call National Highway 1) and I walked into my very first B&M store yesterday ... prices were actually quite competitive with on-line Oz stores ... I was a bit surprised by that ;)

Being isolated makes you self sufficient, whether it be by distance or by the laws of your country.

I picked up some 26AWG SS wire, wrapped an 8/9 around a 2mm mandrel and have it in an eGo ONE atty on an eVic Mini running at 13W in power mode ... first impressions are ... not bad, not bad at all ;)
What grade SS? Been looking into 430SS for TC! :)

I am all ready with my SS for when my new v2 Sophia arrives. :thumbs: So if I get stuck.....you are on speed dial.

@Krisma I've heard of people making their own mods, and have started thinking of doing some myself. But you mentioned you also make attys. How do you do that? Any instructions anywhere?

No we are in the process of making our own tanks. I will use my Sophia's in them.

@gt_1955 makes his own drippers, :p

Psst GT the tanks are still a secret :cool: Until we get the process right.

How many OHM's did that end up being?

You can get a higher mg content and dilute yourself. I buy 48mg overseas and then PG & VG locally (saves shipping weight). I can dilute that 48mg to 8 so for one litre nic I make 6litres eliquid. Lots of Aussies get 100mg and use my freedom smokes. That's too high for me. I also only buy pg based nic eliquid. I find it keeps better.
Again, quantity prices don't appeal to me as I can't order a lot nic at once, and with the 40 dollar limit incl shipping on every item.

But what I'll buy next:
A couple of tanks more (kanger as I got a bunch of coils for them, buy some more cheap coils and some cotton to replace.
One or two replaceable battery mods with charger and a couple batteries.

A lot of juice, 600ml + every month until it affects in EU (don't know if Norway will adopt the directive, but they most likely will.

And this over a longer period as I can't handle huge purchases at once. On long term though, it'll be a lot cheaper.

Ho is the shelf life for room temperature though?

I found this a while ago and toyed with them for a friend. Using an ego c/Imist base




It started life as a biansi imist. I ripped out the tank and wick mechanism in the top and worked out the coil is rebuildable with the mesh around the outside. Added an oring to the threads The base is an istick adapter to get the airflow working properly and then adapted a 901 driptip to fit the top.

Piece of cake ROFL

But in all honesty there are so many cheap clones around that it is not worth the trouble.

And tanks, and auto-drippers, and tubular mech mods and when I lash out for a mill, aluminium billet box mods (splodgers ;) and side-by-side) :D

and I thought it was a joke! What kind of SS? V2A, V4A? (these are the ones zivipf.com offers)? Poor Sophia is only 9 mm, where will all those wraps fit in? :D

That's what I was trying to work out the other day. But Billie assured me I can cram them in. I suppose without the limitations of the ceramic cup there is more room.
