Amazing as it seems, many folks actually seem to say if it wasn't for the crappy mall ecigs, they may never have gotten involved. Luckily I have the same story, but it was because my brother had one and let me try it and I thought this could work. I went googling and finally found this site. Awesome, my brother took the hit and I got the bene!!

I got my batteries in from woot, and I want to gloat some more I got a bag of crap tonight as well in the wootoff (that's a good thing). These things are nice, have to play a while, I'm sure none of the tips I have will work but will check their site to get some to power my netbook, laptop, other things. You get two tips a year free (of course free is a relative term when you pay $12 in shipping). I'm actually going to let it charge the 8 hours for giggles.

We are also hearing reports of the possibly causing issues with batteries (killing them). Having said that I'm a big proponent of LRs.

Removing The Wick And Bridge From Your Atomizer
FTJoe replied to bobthesalesclerk's topic in Modders Forum
I have four low res 901s coming so I will try to do it the correct way with one of them. I couldn't even get the mesh off but I was using really "limp" tweezers. -
Yeah - you are in trouble.
-
I blow it out and turn it over several times a day when I'm vaping, never have an issue but I don't vape all that often.

Vodka already flowing. Got myself a BOC at the wootoff!!!

I already did.

Propsed High-School Principal Speech
FTJoe replied to FTJoe's topic in The Vape Lounge - Off Topic Chat
I can live with disagree, that's all though, right? -
Ouch - I hate when people make me remember, I believe nhaler and bombdropsvapor have LR cartos. Medium res 901s cartos at vapor4life (premium blanks) and medium res 510s cartos at vaportsetc (tru-vapor). They have MR 901s cartos as well (KR808D tru-vapor I think).

Try ben's method of cleaning I believe posted in the how to video section (or some such place).

Know you know why, I've been preaching ever since (back in the day) when someone posted they got to Vegas and everything they had crapped out. I usually remind folks don't forget about the charger.

Got this in my e-mail The speech every American high-school principal should give. (If every high-school principal gave this speech at the beginning of the next school year, America would be a better place.) To the students and faculty of our high school: I am your new principal, and honored to be so. There is no greater calling than to teach young people. I would like to apprise you of some important changes coming to our school. I am making these changes, because I am convinced that most of the ideas that have dominated public education in America have worked against you, against your teachers, and against our country. First, this school will no longer honor race or ethnicity. I could not care less if your racial makeup is black, brown, red, yellow, or white. I could not care less if your origins are African, Latin American, Asian, or European, or if your ancestors arrived here on the Mayflower or on slave ships. The only identity I care about, the only one this school will recognize, is your individual identity — your character, your scholarship, your humanity. And the only national identity this school will care about is American. This is an American public school, and American public schools were created to make better Americans. If you wish to affirm an ethnic, racial, or religious identity through school, you will have to go elsewhere. We will end all ethnicity-, race-, and non-American-nationality-based celebrations. They undermine the motto of America, one of its three central values — e pluribus unum, “from many, one.” And this school will be guided by America’s values. That includes all after-school clubs. I will not authorize clubs that divide students based on any identities. This includes race, language, religion, sexual orientation, or whatever else may become in vogue in a society divided by political correctness. Your clubs will be based on interests and passions, not blood, ethnic, racial, or other physically defined ties. Those clubs just cultivate narcissism — an unhealthy preoccupation with the self — while the purpose of education is to get you to think beyond yourself. So we will have clubs that transport you to the wonders and glories of art, music, astronomy, languages you do not already speak, carpentry, and more. If the only extracurricular activities you can imagine being interested in are those based on ethnic or racial or sexual identity, that means that little outside of yourself really interests you. Second, I am uninterested in whether English is your native language. My only interest in terms of language is that you leave this school speaking and writing English as fluently as possible. The English language has united America’s citizens for more than 200 years, and it will unite us at this school. It is one of the indispensible reasons this country of immigrants has always come to be one country. And if you leave this school without excellent English-language skills, I will have been remiss in my duty to ensure that you are prepared to compete successfully in the American job market. We will learn other languages here — it is deplorable that most Americans only speak English — but if you want classes taught in your native language, rather than in English, this is not your school. Third, because I regard learning as a sacred endeavor, everything in this school will reflect learning’s elevated status. This means, among other things, that you and your teachers will dress accordingly. Many people in our society dress more formally for a meal at a nice restaurant than they do for church or school. These people have their priorities backwards. Therefore, there will be a formal dress code at this school. Fourth, no obscene language will be tolerated anywhere on this school’s property — whether in class, in the hallways, or at athletic events. If you can’t speak without using the F-word, you can’t speak. By obscene language I mean the words banned by the Federal Communications Commission, plus epithets such as the N-word, even when used by one black student to address another, or “*****,” even when addressed by a girl to a girlfriend. It is my intent that by the time you leave this school, you will be among the few of your age to distinguish instinctively between the elevated and the degraded, the holy, and the obscene. Fifth, we will end all self-esteem programs. In this school self-esteem will be attained in only one way (the way people attained it until the state of California decided otherwise a generation ago) — by earning it. One immediate consequence is that there will be one valedictorian, not eight. Sixth, and last, I am re-orienting the school toward academics and away from politics and propaganda. No more time will be devoted to scaring you about smoking and caffeine, or terrifying you about sexual harassment or global warming. No more semesters will be devoted to condom-wearing and teaching you to regard sexual relations as only or primarily a health issue. There will be no more attempts to convince you that you are a victim, because you are not white, or not male, or not heterosexual, or not Christian. We will have failed if any one of you graduates from this school and does not consider him or herself inordinately lucky — to be alive and to be an American. Now, please stand and join me in the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of our country. As many of you do not know the words, your teachers will hand them out to you.

I say a small device, regulated and variable, doesn't have to last all day, pop a few CR123s in the pocket if one needs to. Thew current crop are too big.

My tackle box is full again, actually, I'm out of room. Here's what I used to have Then I went to this: And I'm even fuller...

Had not thought of that, stealth vaping drawback. Did you get regular resistance, I didn't think they were that bad, just too cool (temp). Go down to medium or low and it's a racquet.
-
You don't like the sputtering? I guess just part of the architecture.
-
Nice - if the meter is right though, look at what was saved!! Even if you spent that and more, health benefits? I'm slowing down as well as I think I have what we need all lined. So its just a matter of restocking here and there (or hoarding as some have accused me of).

I would take a little bit of care on vaping as much as you want. In the beginning, until I started cutting down on the nic, I tried to follow my old habits. The reason was I didn't want to start getting too much nic. In retrospect there can be some "health adjustments" to vaping, sore throats, dizziness, headaches, etc. So I wouldn't push it too far in the beginning. After a few weeks in I was vaping like a fiend but I was also down from 24 to 18 on my way to 0 so I didn't worry about it as I was past the swollen glands and other weird things some folks have. I think if you follow you're regular pattern of smoking it will also get you a better handle on nicotine needs.

So do I really have to remove the wick before the bridge? Or will that kind of take care of itself when I remove the bridge. I'm thinking of doing that know as I have 4 more LR 901s on the way. And in case something horrible happens, I have about 20 LR 510s for backups. Too late - I've invented another lazy method. I just wiggled out the bridge first, then picked/twisted out the mesh after the fact. No site of a wick except for one piece I think. Not sure I like this though. Little hot, perhaps too hot for me. Thank goodness createvapor already started the shipping process for my new 901 LRs. But I'll give this a little longer before bailing.

how did you know? ;-)

Low Res Carto Killed The Radio Star
FTJoe replied to Burn's topic in Troubleshooting & Technical Issues
I think roober donated one to jolly for mad scientist work. I didn't realize they had 5 packs of ego batteries. Should be another sale coming up soon, maybe get them down to almost $10 a battery for an tornado battery is awesome. You know, I think it was a tornado roober had. I was going to find the post but I'm too lazy. Here is one(mine): http://www.vaportalk.com/forum/forum/forum/topic/6691-ego-led-constantly-flashing/ And roober's http://www.vaportalk.com/forum/forum/forum/topic/6751-2nd-time-this-week-a-tornado-batt-freaked-out/ -
Work with what you have if you can before spending more money.
