Well, crap... one of my two "channels" on my Pila charger conked out. Not sure why...

Oh, well... I need a new charger anyway, if I'm going to use other than 650 batteries.
If I can find any!!! :p What's up with that Andrew Wong guy anyway? Can't seem to find his tested and certified batteries anywhere these days...

Evening, everyone!!! :) :) :)

Is that the Nitecore I have I think? I do like it and it was cheap at Electronicstix -- hey, that's where we are, I plugged our sponsor!!!:thumbs:

The Nitecore is very nice too. Unfortunately, I lost mine when we moved during the summer, so I picked up the VP1:

I can't release much more info on the ZNA yet. That is mike place, not mine. =) But he was telling everyone in VA that he is aiming for the end of december to have them available to the public. When he allows more info out, we will provide it!!


By the way, i just started using ECF. Singed up almost 2 years ago, but never really used it. My name, as you all can tell, is Chops. I am the warehouse manager for ENS. So any time you guys buy a new ZEN, I am the one who sends it out to you. =)

Good Friday morning Zenfidels! Welcome to "the reunion" thread Chops, good to see ya online!

Been quite a while since I've been anywhere, online. Good news/bad news... We've been so busy at my real estate company/I've had to go back to selling real estate to keep up w/the new clientele load. Paperwork, paperwork... I've listed 3 homes for sale in the past 4-5 weeks, full gambit of prices too, $77,900, $220,000(now reduced) n $647,500. Sold 2 of those listings & also have a buyer in escrow at $360,000. Back before the bust, I had 12 agents n 1 full time employee working w/me. Right now, I still have that 1 employee thankfully, but am down to just 5 full time Realtors.

I'm REALLY bummed I had to cancel Richmond, VaperCon. Had my airline tickets n all, but a family emergency took precedence. My wife's sister was kicked in the face by a horse n spent almost 2 weeks in the hospital. She's ok now, tho she will be recovering for a while. Her husband flew down to be w/her n the kids, but had to get back to the oil. So, my wife used my airfare (luckily) n flew out to Montana to help her n take care of her 3 little girls. Thankfully her 2 week tour, n I mean tour of duty according to the calls I've fielded, will be up this Saturday. Will be glad to have her home again.

I hope to be around here a bit more now through Christmas, when we leave for her Dad's in Wisconsin for his B-Day n Christmas. Then 4 days in Chicago, where I was raised, for my B-Day! As a B-Day gift to me, she has rented someone's home (a condo in a high rise overlooking Lake Michigan) n we're going to hit Shedd's Aquarium, Museum of Science n Industry, observation deck of e Sears Tower, etc, etc, etc... all of the touristy things we can think of! And of course, it'll be Chicago style: pizza, Vienna beef dogs n Italian Beef Sandwiches rotated through for each meal each n every day!! It is MY Birthday party, right?!? New Years Eve would've been nice too, but that would put the trip into a 3rd week n we just can't do that time wise.

Opps, tried to fit an entire catch up into one post. Sorry 'bout that. :tumble:

Hey buddy, thought I killed you with the juices I sent!!!:lol::lol::lol:

Good to hear your making dinero, sorry about the SIL (One of mine has gotten kicked in the head by a horse so we have that in common!!! :laugh:), too bad you weren't at VC3 but you do what you have to. Good plans in my beloved home city, I envy you being able to eat so many tasty treats and REAL pizza, I have to go into the city to get that here out on the plains, there is nary a decent hot dog -- in fact, the local places have ketchup as a standard condiment!!!! :grr::evil::evil::evil:

Maybe we can hook up while you're here! :thumbs:

butterscoth uses to be my favorite now my all day vaping e juice is white ice (vanilla and menthol)

Good morning guys.
im giving a 32ga a try, im using the nextel that nate sent me :).
Flavor: kinda muted.(ill vape for 2 days to test if gets better)
Vapor: poor not as good as my .8 ohm coils.
setting up: way easier than mesh, just cut, torch, insert and wrap,
shards: compared to silica this is heaven but the super small frayed pieces are still there.

ill rebuild the coil with 28ga when i get home this vapor reminds me my old kr808 with cartos lol

Test done, the XC is not for me guys.
those darn little mini shards are allways there, i notice a lot of them after torching, and after a gently touch over the wick my fingers were sparkling, the size of the particle of xc is 8 microns so wouldnt be a problem, about toxicity i dont have idea but i feel uncumfortable using silica or XC, ill be sticking with ss mesh and porus ceramic

Does anybody know how Mike would feel about one of his limited pieces being refinished again in the future? For example, due to wear and tear I'd like to get it touched up/redone.. I'd like to one day have the cOBalt especially refinished again so it's prestine when the time comes.. I just don't want to do it if it'd be considered disrespectful?

These aluminum pieces are easy to make beautiful and perfect again.. I just don't wanna piss people off :laugh:
