Why didn't I take the blue pill?!

That thing is awesome but my wife would give me so much crap wearing that bad boy. Look like doc from back to the future - showing my age

For me it makes the job possible and reduces the frustration level. I just got them and finding they are helpful in many other areas. Soon to be 51 but my eyes are not that great with the small stuff anymore. My sister wants one now.

To the OP, yep, I get what you're saying. But I still enjoy the simplicity of a good "pre-made" tank setup.

For working with those small parts I just ordered this. Looks like it will be a big help for working with the small hard to see items. I just got home so I haven't even attempted my first build yet. That will be tomorrow.

GGI LED-BM Illuminated Multipower LED Binohead Magnifier - Amazon.com

Lol, that's the one I have at home.

What's the magnification on that thing?

What's the magnification on that thing?

There are two magnifying lenses and a monocle. I think I tossed the box out, but I believe it's 2x to 10x (with both lenses and the monocle on one eye only).

Honestly, I find the magnification of just the fixed lens to be adequate for vape-related activities.

It depends... When I went to vape fest thingy I got to try a lot of things and it was a great experience for me. I started playing with rbas out of the gate but couldn't really get into it as the 'juice wasn't worth the squeeze'. Taking care of those things while working 10 hours a day and driving 3, is impossible. I need to throw crap in my purse and be set for the day.

Then I tried an actual well done RBA and got it. Dang fine vape that. So that is my weekend set up for when I am gaming. Mechs, kicks and rbas oh my. In the end it is whatever ya need and you can go pricy/cheap or rebuild/prepackage. Meow I am feeling tingles about getting my Zen carto tank, then I can bring my precious to work with me...

One of the B&Ms I frequent is usually full of the 20-somethings who are all about blowing clouds, it's fun to talk to them and listen to them chatter about it - if I were their age, I'd probably doing the same thing.
It's like anything else, everyone approaches it differently, like computers - some just want to turn it on, do what they need, and turn it off. (ego w/clearo). Some want a little more power, and want to try some different things (cartos, box mods, vv/vw). Some want to tinker, write code, fiddle with drivers, get the most power they can (rebuilds).

THe closest thing we have to a B & M is a local Tatoo parlor/headshop/adult movie rental place that has started carrying some vaping gear. For Kicks and giggles I went in with my REO + RM2 set up with a 1.25 ohm micro coil and 60% vg juice. The 20 somethings had cloud envy it was great. You do not have to sub ohm to get nice clouds.

Newsflash little old lady out clouds the 20 somethings!

Have to get a couple of 'em. One for my vaping stuff and one for my wife with her chain maille. She uses 16x to read so hopefully it will be enough

Wife's chain maille? Diver or medieval? Cool stuff! Turns out I won't be able to go the shop this Sunday. Forgot I had tickets for Andrea Bocelli. Yet another week added to the wait.

I need to talk to my semi-local vape shop about holding a vape meet just so I can talk shop about rebuilding

Medieval, actually jewelry for the most part but she's doing a belt and some bracers for me. Haven't convinced her to do a full hauberk yet, but I think after her first renfaire I should be able to convince her.

Used to love going to the festival in Minnesota back in the day. One of the better ones, I'm led to believe. Have to admit, the girls I saw walking around wearing only chain maile helped peak my interest. Good stuff!
