Ooooh, you poor thing!! You sound just like me!!! I'm on here at home, I'm on at work.. it just never seems to end! Don't wanna miss anything, y'know! You don't need an 808.. I got rid of all mine cuz there's just so much more STUFF for 510s. I was at work tonight looking at clearos and those fluxomizers and all that stuff too... I actually have a few different kinds of clearos and I'm having a lot of trouble with leaking and flooding. I just need to pick one, use it for a day, and then decide if it's any good.. ok, I forgot what you ordered?? And what pv you're using?? (I forget cuz I, too, suffer from info overload!)
Right now I have The Big Kazoo, and a Kgo but mainly I vape on the big Kazoo. I ordered some 510 attys and 510 cartos, now why I ordered 510 carts I am not sure because I have a 6 mill glass tank. And I also have a Lava Tube in the mail and should be here in a few days the 510 cartos are small and with in the past three days I suddenly devloped a thing for drip tips:laugh:

AHHHHH I see it now!! Awesome! Tips and tricks,, can't beat em!
Bamboo.. you got some pretty great equipment there!! I don't know what a big kazoo is,, guess I gotta go check it out!
Thank you. A friend of mine told me about The Big KaZoo and the glass tanks I searched because I herd so much about the other tanks cracking. Also this month I suddenly decided I was going to have another go with this DIY. 5 more mills and I get to see how the juices turned out.:vapor:

Bamboo - as long as your connection is 510 (looks like it is), you should be able to use any clearo, carto, or fluxo with a 510 connection. No 808D required. Cartos are great for flavors you're not sure about, or flavors you don't want to vape 6ml at a time of :)

Just checked the status of my order from GreenHouseOne, and it looks like my black LT kit & the other goodies I ordered with it will be here soon! They left NJ at some point in the last hour and a half! YAY!!!!! It's a good thing the mailman is used to me stalking him :cool: :smokie: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Ok thank you, and also it would be compatable with 510 ego style clearomizers, flexomizers, and the mico what ever its called? There is so much I did not know before especially after taking a break on ECF. And now I am back it is like a whole new door with nothing but goodies.:):vapor:

Aaaah - because your connection is recessed into the box, you will need a 510-ego extender/adapter to make some of them work (the Vision/Stardust would be one that you'd need the extender for). They're cheap, under $3, and can be found on most vendor sites - 510 Battery to eGo Atomizer Adapter

We will be getting the Lava Tubes almost the same time. :thumbs::banana::vapor:

I love my LT (I couldn't wait & bought a red one from the classies last weekend lol) - you're going to love it, too! You'd need a 510-ego adapter on it if you want to use the stardust/vision clearo, too :)

Is anyone else vaping plain menthol or pg/vg to clear their palates? I've been using the ECB 100% VG menthol or straight unflavored VG off and on every day for the last few weeks, and am finding it to be a nice change from all of the flavors - it also helps to vape it for a bit after I've vaped so much of my favorites that I can't really taste them anymore! There was a guy at last weekends vapemeet doing the same - was nice to know I wasn't the only one who found it refreshing!

Aaaaand... speaking of refreshing, has anyone found a nice light go to vape? I love my deejstuff CantaMelon for the light almost honeydew like flavor it gives, Deejstuff Waterberry Bluemelon is another nice one, but I'd love to find more light, non sweet juices to add to my rotation. It doesn't have to be a fruit, just something light and refreshing - summer is coming, and while I can vape in the AC (woohoo! so much better than the stinkies!), I'd still like more light juices to choose from.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Have I mentioned lately how much I adore all of you? :wub:

edited to add: I'm hoping the peach cantaloupe watermelon falls into the refreshing category, but you know I'm a juice junkie!!! I want to try everything!

I use watered-down mouthwash to clean my pallet between flavors or when my taste buds dull. About 1 part mouthwash to 3 parts water, and then rinse again with water. I guess this probably isn't an option when your out and about, but it works well when I'm at home.

As for the light vape, right now I'm fully enjoying the TKO I got in my last ECB order. It's a light blue raspberry with a bit of a cool hit, and it's great right out of the mailbox. The other light flavor I like is the Pear juice from ECB, which is another flavor that doesn't need any steeping.

I would be roughly 3 hours north of Syracuse, along the St. Lawrence River in a little burg called Massena. I'm an hour south of Montreal and the Canadian border is about 10 minutes away. Hell, sometimes we go to Canada for a cup of coffee! We're going to Syracuse in a couple weeks, as a matter of fact, to see TransSiberian Orchestra at the OnCenter. I'm hoping to convince my travel buddies to go to Dinosaur BBQ after the show! No salt potatoes right now,, though I think the season is coming up. And apple orchards are big here.. lots of farms, but I think a lot of them are struggling badly up here. It's pretty remote.. our mall is dying a slow death and about the only place to shop here is Walmart. The nearest 'real' shopping is about two hours away. My husband is a HUGE Orange fan.. we watch lots of basketball here and I think he has, like, 6 orange hoodies!! Small world, huh?

Wow! When I saw Northern NY in your location I was thinking Watertown, but you're way north of there too! I think I'll nickname you Nanook. :D It is a small world, but then most of the people I meet here in the TB area are transplants from somewhere in New England.

Mmmmm... Dinosaur BBQ... Yet another Syracuse legend. :drool: If you can't go there, you should at least hit Hieds in Liverpool or Mother's Cupboard on James Street. All three of these places were featured on Man vs. Food on the Travel Channel not too long ago, and I was glued to the TV for that episode.

I went to Dinosaur BBQ a couple months ago when a bunch of us girls went down to see Jeff Dunham. That place is awesome!! Sam Adams Cherry Wheat beer and ribs.. some serious yum there!! I really want to take hubby, he's never been and the couple that we travel with too... we had some big fun there! My husband is addicted to Man vs. Food.. and a bunch of other foody shows. He was diagnosed with diabetes back in December and I would come home from work and he would be watching Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives... why do you torture yourself like that??? Drooling over food that he can't eat anymore!! Masochist! And yes, Watertown is about 2 hours,, I actually bought my car in Watertown which is a total pain in the a** but that's where the car I wanted was. As a matter of fact, for any kind of shopping at all, we go to Watertown.

This is what I love about this place.. wicked nice people, from all over!!

I can relate to the long drives for certain things. When I was a teen, we had to drive to Buffalo or even NYC to attend some of the better concerts. And then later on, we would drive an hour to get to the closest reservation to buy cigs cheap. None of that was very much fun with snow or slush on the roads. This is one of the things I like about Tampa... Everything is within minutes from my house and I NEVER have to deal with those kinds of driving conditions, even if we do sometimes get rain that causes zero visibility. :D

Oh yes,, the Indian rez. I have one up here about 10 minutes away, and when my Marbs got to $9 a pack, I started buying the cheap native ones. they were pretty awful but I smoked em anyway. So was Turning Stone there when you lived here? I don't like Turning Stone, hate their card system.. put money on your club card, no tickets so you better remember to take your card when you leave a machine. Just down the road from Turning Stone is Vernon Downs Racetrack and they have a pretty good casino there. We'll be making a stop there when we go down for the concert. We get free nights at the hotel at Vernon Downs,, which is never really free:D but we have a good time there. We can play, drink some beers and not worry about any of us having to drive anywhere..

I think Turning Stone was there when I was a resident, but I was never one to go to casinos or clubs. I'm more of a house party kind of guy.

Once you find your ideal vaping needs, you should save up and plan a trip down here. Between Orlando and Tampa Bay, there's so much to do, and I'm sure you and the hubby would have a great time. The best time to come is in February when the weather here is really nice and you've probably had enough of the NY winter. Just a thought... :D

I remember those days of going to the reservation and getting smokes also. Glad it is behind me. :):vapor:

I almost DID come to Tampa not long ago!!!! This was before I knew you guys, but how fabulous would that be??? Been having some health issues and was convinced it was a parathyroid issue and was consulting with a Dr. James Norman there in Tampa. If I had needed surgery, I would have had to come to Tampa for it.. it appears that is NOT my issue though, so no trip to Tampa for me (boohoo). But that doesn't mean I'll NEVER get there!! Always looking for a new fun place to vacation.. I will surely keep that in mind!! I think Cheeky is in Tampa too??? Now wouldn't THAT be a meeting??? The three of us??? I want to come tomorrow!!! It's looking, though, like there might not be much of a vacation this year with gas prices the way they are. IDK,,, time will tell about that.

I'm an awful casino hound.. it started way back on a trip to Vegas with my ex-husband and his girlfriend. No,I didn't know at the time that she was his girlfriend, I knew her as his best friend's wife. Nice guy, right? The two of them ended up moving to Vegas, and are still there, I guess. Sounds awful, and it was at the time, but I know now that he did me a big favor. I actually saw them last summer,,, he looks good, she got fatter and uglier. And I look FABULOUS :D Take THAT, ya .......! Besides, I never would have met present hubby and he's the best!

OK,,, that's enough of that.. I gotta head to work. Have a great afternoon everyone...

The mouthwash is a great idea Glen! I'll have to try it! I have a big bottle of the ECB Pear and love it - it was one of the first juices I got, and it's been a favorite ever since. The TKO is a strange one for me - I thought I would love it, but it hasn't grown on me. I'll have to give it another try, and if I still don't like it, you're welcome to it - I'll bring it to the next meet for you :)

Come to visit! We'd love to have you :) I've been trying to convince you to visit for months - VapeStock is in June... just sayin' (again lol). Or wait until next winter and get a nice break from the icky snow and ice! As an aside, Iron Monkey is from Buffalo - lots of NYers in the Tampa Bay area!

Luvinit - your ex husband was an idiot. You're FABULOUS and I'm glad you've found a much better man and that you got to see him when you look FABULOUS! :)
