I still think VW was an unnecessary addition to ProVari...

I'm still waiting for an explanation as to why TC is not a fad for those who know how to vape. If it worked well and were plug and play, I can see it as a benefit for new vapers plagued with dry hits, however...
You keep using the word "fad", I don't think it's the right word.

TC (or wick protection) is a tool. If you don't need that tool don't buy one.

Isn't that where experience and skill come into play? Seems like training wheels on a motorcycle...

See it Anyway you want.

But Experience and Skill can only go so far when it comes to getting a Dry Hit at High Watts/Temperature.

If I wanted to Run the Highest Possible Watts/Temperature possible for a given e-Liquid/Atty, TC seems like a Pretty Cool way to do it.

Not sure why you Can't See that what you may be Looking for in an e-Cigarette is perhaps Not what everyone is Looking For? But I guess if you Did, than I wouldn't be Writing this.

Its for Whatever a Person Wants.

Didn't they the have the expression... "Whatever Floats your Boat" in the country where you were raised?


That doesn't answer the question as to why one would want or need it... For sport vaping, for the inexperienced, for those who need to have the newest toy? It can't be for the best vape, as there are too many variables to set it and forget it...

Funny, that's what I've been doing lately. Setting it and forgetting it, that is. Still have to top up the tank from time to time, though. And change the wick once a week. I hate that part.

Why do you Need an answer to the Question of what Other People Need and or Want?

Isn't it Enough to know that Everyone may not be Seeking what you are Seeking?

Vaping is useful for about 2 weeks to GET off smokes.

After that it becomes a tool for Staying off smokes.

So I'm always alittle lost when people are so against something that holds peoples interest that keeps them vaping and not smoking.

Whats the percentage of people who don't want to "learn how to vape" and just don't wanna smoke any more??

I would like to know the answer also...

A thousand pictures can be drawn from one word
Only who is the artist
We got to agree
A thousand miles can lead so many ways
Just to know who is driving
What a help it would be

So if you want this world of yours
To turn about you
And you can see exactly what to do
Please tell me

I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.

Pushing power to the limit is for what then? Just a casual, relaxing vape? If I take my car out on the turnpike and go 150, is that a casual Sunday drive, or sport driving?

Depends.

Is it on a public highway where your putting other peoples lives at risk?? If thats the case you should be killed.

Is it on your own land or a place set aside for that purpose?? Then its nobodies bidness but yours and the others that made the choice to be there.

Toyota Corolla does everything a car needs to do safely and legally and has for a number of years. Yet other cars continue to be made and sold. Why do you suppose that is??

So TC is for hobbyists, not the casual vaper. I understand now...

I think those people use cigalikes...

Here's the book for this week's book-club:

See you guys on Tuesday!

On topic, here's some fun but useless statistics you can get from owning a DNA200.

My perfect hit (across a 20k+ puff sample) on a .16 single build seems to be 1.61secs (w/ dev. of .31 secs) at 23.75 watts averaging 390f (w/dev. of 20.5f) and consuming 10.51 mWh of battery power.

Some real noob stuff.

Pushing a car to the limit is quite like sport vaping, not at all like a junky Toyota...

I actually see it the other way myself but its like like thats fact based, just an opinion.

I will have a tiny drop of data soon as I gave a TC setup to my son in law last week. iStick 40 and Smok VCT. No real info so far, its working but for how long I don't know. The Nautilus I gave him was a complete flop.

I don't use TC much myself. I do like it but I like others things too.
