  1. Reminds me of the militant femi-nazi that came to our back table in a restaurant about 25-yrs ago. My wife was breastfeeding our newborn son, completely covered and discreet, and I doubt more than 4 people in the restaurant even knew we were IN that booth. Anyway, she came over and started ranting about how shameful it was to expose a breast like that, and she should do such wicked things in the bathroom, where it belongs, because "real people" were trying to eat a civilized meal. I stood up, walked over to her table, and picked up her plate... started walking... she screamed at me because I had dared to touch her plate, and demanded to know what I was doing... I turned to her and politely said (in front of the whole restaurant) "I'm taking your plate to the women's restroom. If my son has to eat his meal in there, it will be good enough for you too, right?" The manager stopped her before she could hit me, and asked her (and her timid/whipped husband) to leave, immediately. We, on the other-hand, received our meal for free, and were welcomed back

  2. I received a FavoTank for review a couple days ago, and I must say, it is a very well-built sub-ohm tank. The kit includes SS/Pyrex tank, with spare Pyrex tank section, three coils (0.2 Ohm OCC, 0.5 Ohm OCC, and 0.5 Ohm wickless ceramic), and Pyrex wide-bore drip-tip. First inspection of the tank shows very little machine oil, solid o-rings, well-fitting parts (clean threads), and smooth/square tank glass. The air-flow control opens from single, 1.25mm port, dual 1.25mm port, single 6.5mm port, and single 9.5mm port; however, the coil-head's intake port is four 1mm ports leading to the internal body of the coil, so there is very little difference between the two largest port openings. Still though, the tank has ample air-flow for 0.5 Ohm coil function and direct lung-hits, but slightly "tight" for 0.2 Ohm coil function at high Watts. The tank is solid, and well made... very much like the Kanger Sub-tank in design, with the look of an iClear 30-series on top. The capacity is 4.8ml with the OCC heads, and slightly less when using the ceramic-heads. Filling the tank with a metered-syringe, I was able to add 4.5ml with room to spare. Metering all coils showed the 0.5 Ohm OCC head to be spot-on, the 0.2 Ohm OCC head to be 0.28, and the 0.5 Ohm ceramic to be 0.48 Ohms. All but the 0.5 OCC head will only fire on my IPV-mini2's or a mech-mod, which is sad that you must have a higher-end APV before using this device. I do wish higher Ohm coils were available! Not everyone wants to sub-ohm this low! Vaping the tank is not quite as smooth as the Kanger Sub-tank or Horizon Arctic, as these OCC coils do seem to have a tiny delay before energizing full-power on my IPV-Mini2, but it is not bad, and allows me a little air-flow lead-in before the vapor hits, and this does seem to mitigate the "extreme-hot" vape experienced from the Arctic Tank when using 0.5 or 0.2 Ohm coils. The OCC 0.5 Ohm coil wicks well, and chain-vaping at 30W has yet to yield a dry-hit. At 50W (for my juice), there was a slight burnt taste, but then again, the coils are rated for 20-150W (suggested), so my particular 50/50 juice just doesn't like that much power. I have not tried the 0.2 Ohm coil, and it is rated from 20-60W (suggested), which seems low? The wickless coils are rated 20-35W, which seems odd to me, as my particular 50/50 juice did not have a burnt flavor at max-power (70W) from my IPV-mini2, although the vape was a bit "dry" and hot for my tastes. Vapor production seemed to have a sweet-spot around 30W (just like the OCC head), and the vape was surprisingly cool, compared to the OCC heads. Overall, my first few days with the tank have left me with a positive impression. Longevity of the coils and durability of the glass tank-section will be determined later, and cost/availability of replacement coils will give this a 3.5-star rating for now. As mentioned (I believe by Compenstine, in his review), I do wish they offered an RBA deck for this tank, and possibly, they will offer one, as the ceramic-head is large enough to support builds! I also have not found 0.8 or 1.2 Ohm coils for this tank. I do wish they were offered, as this tank has great potential with other vapers if it were not strictly a 0.5 Ohm (or lower) tank... If 0.8-1.2 Ohm coils were available, the buying-market for this tank would increase 500%?

  3. Caffeine is not absorbed by the body the same way Nicotine is. Nicotine can be absorbed by the skin, aerosolized, liquid, solid, and is absorbed at 99% rate, regardless of method. Heat increases the absorption rate to increase perceived effects... Caffeine is best absorbed in liquid form, ingested into the stomach, and processed into the blood-stream by the kidneys/intestines. Ingestion has an absorption rate of 99%, but takes up to 45-min to feel the effects. Caffeine gum and sprays are absorbed into the bloodstream through the mouth and throat, but only at the level of 50-75% the rate of an equal volume ingested into the stomach. Caffeine "could" be added to e-liquids, but to get the equivalent of a cup of coffee, you'd have to vape 300mg (or a liter of 33% solution), and it would take 45-min for the effects to be felt. Basically, you'd have to drown in the stuff, and wouldn't get much benefit for the effort

  4. I just ordered four more Samsung 25r... I thought about the eFest batteries, but realized they weren't worth the extra cost, when 2500mAh and 20A is will within my operational limits/needs... and @ $5.45 each ($21.80 shipped) for the Samsung's, I couldn't pass on them. In the last year, I've had one (Samsung) battery failure, and it just recently stopped working, not holding a charge. The remaining Samsung, and even my older Sony's are still working well, although perhaps the VTC4's don't quite hold a charge as long as they did last year?

  8. It doesn't have to be anything fancy as long as it works for you. The Kanger Pro Tank 3 are very dependable workhorses.

  9. I decided to do a longer test on mine before the video review, I really like the Wickless coil so far. Not 1 dry hit since I have been using it.

  14. Bravo, Earthling! Why is it that I can never think of a good come-back like that until three hours later?

  15. Health was the first thing. Smell was next. As a salesman, I hated that I smelled like an ashtray. Cologne was useless, unless you used an obscene amount. Third is the hobby. I love the hobby. I totally understand people like bcarter (and most others) that are very happy just not smoking, and totally respect it. I am just one of those types who always looks for new gadget, or something new and shiny. I am not a cloud chaser, but I do enjoy my SauceCode with a .1 ohm Ni200 coil. It does force me to be a little more mindful of the clouds. I pretty much stick to one juice, but I am likely to change APV or tanks once a week.
