Removing flavor wicks problem
bcartervol98 replied to bcartervol98's topic in General Vaping Discussion
2mm yarn. Are you saying one piece of yarn not pulled apart or 1 piece of the strands after they are pulled apart? I called her, she got me 2mm (she thinks). My wife is beautiful and smart and all that, but not exactly a "yarn knowledge" type lol -

Most Yarn is 4 strands coiled together right? I was thinking I would tear it down to individual strands and use 2 of those to start and adjust from there. -
Second year in the SEC. Last year they won 1 SEC game and Auburn won 0. Then they meet in the SEC Championship game the very next year. It goes to show what a difference one year could make to a team. And, by the way, Mizzous only SEC win last year was against my Vols. With that said, they are in my teams division so I will never like Mizzou lol. Of course I didnt watch the Cotton bowl I was too busy watching Ohio State get handled by Clemson a day after watching Bama get handled by Oklahoma lol.

The wife is getting me cotton yarn today to try as flavor wicks. It is still working, but with q-tip cotton I have a hard time getting a uniform size without the middle being bigger than the ends. I am finding it only lasts about a tank because when it soaks up and expands it is too big and it touching the coil as opposed to sitting just above it. I expect strands of yarn to work even better and cannot wait to put some in tonight when I get off work! -
New member and not feeling good after vaping
bcartervol98 replied to joshc08's topic in General eLiquid Discussion
I am at 18mg and happy, almost 9 months in my wife is still on 24. Its all in what you want. Neither of us are on a path to become nicotine free but rather to not smoke tobacco. I do not foresee another drop anytime soon for me and I still keep one tank of 24mg with me for those "as needed" occasions. -

Hulu vs Netflix etc...

I have been an Amazon Prime member for a few years. I thought that allowed you to watch the free stuff on a kindle, can you also link that to your TV? I am NOT a tech expert when it comes to things like that. My son got a WII U for Christmas that had Hulu and NetFlix on it and that was the first time I realized I could watch it on my TV and not just on the computer monitor. -

I would keep the basic cable and internet package. Its just that I have 3 HD DVRs in 3 different rooms and am subscribed to every channel they offer. I am mainly talking about catching up on series and having movies available that I would lose if I dropped the premium channels. -

If by Vison you mean Vision I wasnt aware they made the Vamo although they could. That would make exactly 2 Vision products I like lol if so -

Redbox like the machines outside stores? -
In our ongoing budget effort to work toward a couple of goals, it pains me every time I pay the $250 cable bill (internet too but still) and am considering a subscription to one of these or another like it. Total noob and just wanted to get others thoughts. I did a trial of Hulu and wasn't impressed with the offerings. Is Netflix different or better?

tanks for a higher vg juice?
bcartervol98 replied to hookahhighness's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I have yet to actually dry burn one, but now that I know how to replace the flavor wicks who knows lol -
tanks for a higher vg juice?
bcartervol98 replied to hookahhighness's topic in General Vaping Discussion
See the 4-5 pages of my thread on removing flavor wicks. Unbelievable the difference when replaced with cotton. I have a couple flavors that the manufacturer decided to go "PG Free" without letting anyone know and just after I had ordered 125ml lol. My preferred ratio is 60vg 40pg or 50-50 but all the problems I had with this one flavor were fixed with replacing the silica flavor wicks with cotton. -

I have several multimeters. Kept buying them when I wouldn't be able to find one. They always end up on the boat 25 miles from our house and when we cleaned it out for the winter I found 4. Just not sure how to use one beyond checking to make sure something is getting power or is grounded. Mcrib is the bomb too lol. I'm southern and will eat almost anything. -
I think I am being misunderstood. I will pay a lot more to buy from a US retailer even though I know I could buy it cheaper abroad. I know it originated there but in a global economy many times businesses, like the one I run, get lost in the mix. That's why I am loyal to a fault when it comes to those I do business with at any level. That's just me I do not begrudge anyone for saving money it's just in my mind, when I order from Sweet-Vapes or Veteran Vaper, I am supporting our economy even though in a very small way. I know them. I can call them. They send me free stuff from time to time for being a loyal customer. Good folks and I am fortunate enough to not have to vape on a small budget so they get my business. I think a lot of my attitude comes from running a GM dealer group the last 18 years. I just wish we could get back to building things here, like an affordable mod like the Vamo or others in that price range.

It was so easy if it works for me long term I might start doing it on all my coils lol. -
Removing flavor wicks problem
bcartervol98 replied to bcartervol98's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Ok that was way easier than I had envisioned. Didn't realize how easily the coils come apart. Used cotton off Qtips I figure if they are sterile enough to stick in my ear they are good enough for a coil. Still early on just started using one but taste is unbelievable and no leaking or dry hits so far and I used a good size piece of cotton. That's the first time I have ever seen the inside of a KPT coil lol. -
I am sure there are some things you can save a lot more than 5-10%. I do not even know what the unit you have mentioned here is lol. Its just a personal thing for me, and maybe I should leave it that way so as not to offend people lol.

You know I usually side with the vendor being a businessman but if I ordered and paid for something thinking it would be 10-14 days till it arrived and had attempted to contact the vendor about it to no avail and it escalated to a point that PayPal refunded money I would be one pissed off consumer. Maybe it is my distaste of ordering retail from China to save 5-10% on a tiny cost item that makes me feel this way. I understand wholesale vendors get most of their hardware from China due to necessity but, and this is only in my very humble opinion, ordering retail from there....well it just bothers me.

I actually agree with this. I usually err on the side of doing what I conceive is "right" but in this case I would most likely do the same thing and feel fine about it. The most I would do is make one attempt to contact them and see if they want it shipped back and, if so, ask them to provide a shipping label. Again if everything said was true then you went above and beyond to communicate with no reciprocation whatsoever. PayPal doesn't refund money just because you want it, there is a burden of proof that has to be established.
