Sorry about the painful stuff Always and Rudedog. :(

On a lighter note my Sigelei 213 arrived today and it is exactly what I've been wanting. A dual battery, regulated mod that is virturally the same size as the SX Mini M Class, only 30 grams lighter. It is slightly shorter and slightly thicker than the SX but fits and feels great in my hand, I'm sure it will be my favorite mod.

I hope it turns out as well as everyone says it is. All the reviews were positive so I'm hoping I like it so much I buy another lol.

We were robbed sometime in the last few days, we have another property a half mile away from the house we live in and we use the house for storage, that house has a nice garage and he keeps his tools and race car there. They took about 100k worth of professional mechanic's tools and stripped the top end off of the race motor along with fuel pump, distributor and assorted other parts, they also took all of his pneumatic tools and power tools. The door to the house was also open and while we looked in we did not go in to see what they took out of there yet. So much for Friday the 13th being just a myth. :(

I have used it all day and I have to say I really like it, I have only used it in wattage mode so far but I love the way it feels in the hand and even after using it all afternoon and evening the battery indicator has barely moved.
I've been vaping like a fiend with all of the stress of finding out we had been robbed, talking to police and an investigator and trying to keep him from going off the deep end. The investigator is hopefull about catching them since the race car and all the stuff they took are mopar and not overly common. The 1050 Dominator carbeurator also has a serial number on it and is a very expensive alcohol piece.

Good lord....so sorry to hear this...that really makes me nuts.

I would love to find someone trying to rip me off, not sure if I would call an ambulance or the cops, possibly neither.

Wow. Lots of shitty news. Really sorry Claudia and Rudedog. Thinking good thoughts and sending good juju your way.

Good luck in your race 22...you can do it. You can mow your own lawn too. :p
As for gardening, sadly it's taken a back seat to other stuff this year. Very sadly. I'm going to try to get one small bed dug out this weekend if the rain holds off, but other than that no big plans right now.
Also thinking about what to stock up on but I think I'm covered. I might buy a another regulated mod and a new tank, but I have REOS for years, and that feels like the safest best. Maybe another liter of nic for the freezer soon?

Wishing you all well and sending my love... :hearts:

Morning knucklebutts.
Hate to hear all the crappiness going on.
Mother's Day today.....cuz I had to work last weekend. Taking mom out for lunch. My aunt will probably be with us as well because we're going out for fish. Best carp in the Midwest.
Other than that, I've got nothin.

I don't really have much to say right now other than we have good friends that are bikers and those bikers and their friends have the current list of the stolen items, a lot more will be added to the list as we figure out exactly what they took, and are out looking. There is a swap meet today in conjunction with a drag race and the promoters have the list and our number to call. We also have DNA as there were three cigarette butts on the garage floor that have been collected and sent to the lab.

Hi knuckles all kinds of knuckle sadness lately so hugs to all

No planting here. We did plant some new flowers that are frost resistant a few months ago but this weekend is not a good one weather wise for new plantings. Anything small won't survive the frost we should have tonight.

NO idea what any of that means, but hello! I tend to not mince words and my signature says it all. I am one of the resident Brits, so some things my just go over my head.
No problem. I am a long haul truck driver so that's what most of it was about. I also really like dragons and I was the official dragon on our first forum. When I grow up I really want to be a dragon. So far, I have just gotten old without growing up and no dragon changes in sight.

I haven't shared anything on Facebook because there's a lot of people on there, the less some of them know about me the better. Funny, I can trust my forum friends more than real life family
From my experience with this group, your trust is well placed. Sorry you are going through this. Even if it is a good thing, it is a stressful thing. Take very good care of yourself through this time. Your body will feel the stress and it will get back at you. Massages and hot tubs should be part of the settlement.

I have no intention of selling my SX Mini M-Class. :) I keep 4 mods going with 4 different flavors so this will replace one I am not as pleased with, but the SX-Mini is my go to, on the go mod.
Good to hear because I am thinking seriously of giving it a new home. I will have another pay by 28th.

There have also been reports of the drip box auto firing. My reos are my forever mods, have everything I need to keep them running for years.

I have two Reos and few other mechs around here. I feel safe for the long haul. I may need a couple attys cause I just don't love the ones I have.

I love to vape and do not want to think of stopping (at least not now). There are a few juices I really like and I think I am going to start stocking up a bit. My local B&M has ridiculous prices (low) and the only coffee vape that I like. That and their Vanilla Butternut are very good. Steam Juice is still a go to for me. They will sell flavorings if the regs hit the premade juices too hard. That and all the supplies for the DIY that I have never even tried.

Saw this on FB. Damn, this is just the pits. I do hope you have insurance even though that is never enough to make things right. I feel such rage over thefts. MY stuff, MY hard work...NOT YOURS!

Well I fired up the Sigelei 213 yesterday late morning and I just replaced the batteries for the first time, I'm pretty impressed with the battery life too. I actually can see it replacing the SX Mini if it comes to that, it's about the same size,a little lighter, and has more than twice the battery life. Also take into consideration that I have vaped much more than normal with the stress, it is not the only mod I'm using but being the new kid I have used it a bit more than the others.

No insurance, they would only agree to commercial insurance because we do not live there, and only10k coverage on garage contents which would begin to cover it. The insurance would have cost nearly the replacement cost every year.

It is terrible this has happened to you both. That feeling of having your life invaded is just awful. I hope they catch them, through the serial number or the DNA!
