I just put mine in a box anyway. So no light.
I like being able to see the nicotine.

Yeah, you may have a point there, since we were all wondering if the reason VT put this on sale so cheaply was to get rid of old stock. I was just going to pour a little into a small clear bottle to check it.

Hmm. If I have to buy 12, when I only need 8, then I would be using the other 4 for mixing in, as well, so yeah, it needs to be amber. Once I get all done with the WTA, I'm probably going to start mixing my strawberry & cream in much larger volume, so yeah, amber glass.

Aw Shadow...21 you say? That's incredible. Bless him.

You're right, it never gets easier - not even when we recognize it's their time. The only thing that eased (a little bit) the difficult decision was knowing animals don't fear moving on, not like us humans at least. They live in the moment. We could learn a thing or 2 from them in that respect don't you think?

I have a soft spot for adopting senior cats. Even though I know we won't have them for years at least they'll live whatever time they have, feeling loved and cared for.

I think I have something in my eye :(

Take care LJ

Thank you very much for the kind words. You have a beautiful & kind heart to want to take care of senior cats. Bless you and again, I'm sorry for your loss.:cry: :(

The eGo ONE only supplies battery voltage similar to a mechanical mod, but is electronically protected and has built-in USB charging not unlike most regulated mods. It can fire down to under 0.5ohms, but I only use 1.0ohm and above on it.

I getcha, but how do you know what it's putting out - is there a way to figure that out? May be just a mind trip, but I like to know what voltage etc. I'm vaping. Y'know?

It will put out about 4.1 volts fully charged and as it discharges it will drop to around 3.5 volts where it will tells you it needs recharging.

So sorry for your loss hejira. :( My wife and I are big animal lovers as well. All of our pets are rescues. If your able to go to my album page you'll see our guys and gals that we've had through the years and those that are still with us. At the present time we have 6 cats.

Unfortunately our oldest and my best bud is on his final journey after 21 years. He has been hanging in but he stopped eating 3 days ago so it won't be much longer I fear. I named him Shadow because where ever I am he's right behind me! What a great guy! Even though I've been through this numerous times because of the number of animals we have.
It certainly doesn't get any easier!:(:(:(. @juskiddin I'm sorry for your loss as well.:(

@LJFinFLA Bless your heart...I'm so sorry to hear about Shadow-what a good buddy. I'll keep you and Shadow in my thoughts.

You are right, though - it doesn't get easier!

I have a sort of embarassing problem. I went to a local vape shop the other day and I think they charged me too much.

I looked at and ended up buying the ELeaf IJust 2 - and I could have sworn they quoted me $22.95 for it, but an hour later after I had sampled juices & chatted a while, I went to pay and noticed they charged me $56.95 for that ijust. I asked them - I said, "I thought it was $22 something?" And the guy said no that was the other thing we looked at. I spent over $100 on juices and the ijust combined.

I really like to support vape shops, which is probably why I end up spending too much money on vaping stuff, but the more I think about it the more upset I get - makes me feel embarassed because it's as if they looked at me and thought I was a fool to be taken advantage of or something! And pisses me off - the prices at the high end of this item are $36.95 - from this google search (Google).

What's more, I don't even like the thing - it's one of those batteries similar to the Ego One - it has some kind of algorithms regulating how it fires, etc. that I don't understand and wish I could figure out. Like I said in another thread, maybe that's just psychological, not sure yet.

Do you think I should go back to the shop and say - hey, I think you overcharged me for this thing? Or just eat it?

First. Thank you for the kind and heartfelt words!

As for the B&M problem I too would like to support my local shops but due to the fact that they charge way to much for something I can buy online has me twisted as well. The Vapor Store is located 2 miles from my house yet I would have to pay double for their products then I would if I ordered from their online store! Huh??? Yea I get the overhead part but why just about double if not more? I've been in their store and said I seen this mod for let's say $40 bucks but in the store it sells for $80. Yes I know I could order it from their online site but why screw the people in your neighborhood that you are supposed to be serving. I just get dumb founded by the whole thing. Why have a shop in the neighborhood? To screw them? OK sorry for the rant!

If it was me I'd go back and tell them you saw it for $25 bucks cheaper online. When they give you the we have overhead routine and won't refund you. I'd tell them Thanks for nothing (well me personally it would be much harsher words) and never go back!

I completely agree with @LJFinFLA and @Boden . Take it back.

It is decided. I shall (attempt to) take it back.

I haven't run across B&Ms with that stupid of a markup until now.

Thanks for the feedback, all! [emoji481] cheers!
