Yup, have 2, one has the virus stuck in it, the other has CB. Dripping without the hassle of, well, dripping.

OTOH, I acquired an Aqua in the classies, built it up with twin Megan coils, one extra wrap (making 9 of 30g) to get the ohms to where the VTR would fire it, loaded it up with GCD, and what a vapor beast it is. Justin (and, just where the heck is he?) would be so proud, I have the watts maxed out (15), air flow tweaked in, and GCD is popping like never before.

Megan, imagine two PT's piped in together . . . :D

Once this tank is done, Radioactive will get a shot.

Are you telling me that you have the aqua inside the vtr? If so, I'm gonna be mad. I sold the vtr specifically because there weren't any options for rba's that weren't genesis style that would actually fit it inside the ring....

No, using the extension. Ain't pretty.

Taifun GS. I had a pic of it on here ages ago in my vtr.

Unfortunately since my first build I haven't been able to get it to wick properly again.. haha.

I saw a picture in another thread that showed someone's VTR and they had used a dremel to cut off the ring to allow for larger tanks. It looked pretty good.

...and a Bababooey to you all

I'm determined to figure out this wicking thing yet. It was amazing when I had it right.

Morning embee! I just have to say my eyes decide what everyone's avi is by seeing them in my side vision and all this time I thought yours was a bunny till I really looked at it. :laugh:

LOL. Not a bunny. It's actually a Francesco Clemente watercolor. His paintings make me happy.
How're you feeling? I'm actually a little under the weather today. I think it's just stress and bad sleep. Even my favorite juice isn't making me feel better. So I'm gonna sit on the couch and catch up on Netflix, then I have to try and sleep as much as possible cuz it's back to work tonight. I keep telling myself (Hawk-style) thisisonlytemporarythisisonlytemporarythisisonlytemporary.
Smooches...
(yeah, the smooches are for everybody, not just MKR.)


***Edit to say that, actually, Frenilla is helping a little. :)

So how do you guys like the VTR? I was thinking of buying one but wasn't sure what will fit on it, so I got an MVP 2 instead. (Should be here tomorrow!!)

Yeah but I hate the taifun. :/ and I didn't want to cut the ring off. The whole reason I liked the vtr was the ring protects the tank. That and the tank sits inside like a billet box, just lot enclosed. I'm not as mad now. Lol!

DanK, nice to see you here! I have missed you.

Good morning Family. CO is cold and cloudy this morning. Looks like snow but it isn't doing anything right now.

I had to google Bababooey to figure out the significance. Got it now.

Buzz, you will have to keep your snow. Sorry, truck is busy today! LOL.

I like what it will do, pushing 15W (like my eVics on steroids), like the VV or VW, like the way the right sized tanks sit in the ring (I have a bunch of protanks that look like they were made for it), form factor is good, construction is very good, hate the weight. If it were as light as, say, a REO, I'd carry it around all the time.

The vtr, that I loved so much, has become a paper weight / ohm's checker since I got my reo.

The GT and GS are completely different. I've never had a desire to try the GS which is the only one I've heard other people using. The GT fits great. Airflow and flavor are perfection... its just the darn trick to get it to wick which somehow I nailed perfect my first attempt and haven't been able to replicate yet.

Then maybe I'm not giving it a fair shake? I think I saw the GS, not the GT when I last looked into them.... Hmmmmmmm.....
