However, for me I see pods as going backwards. IDK I could be wrong. The only thing appealing is the form factor for discreet vaping.

I'll join your "wrong" crowd then. Don't make it a club though. *chuckles* I don't comprehend all the hype over pods. "Comes with 2 ml pod to hold lots of juice!" Yeah, okay I've got a squonker with a 10 ml bottle, lots of juice in 2 ml? Yeah sure right, if 2 ml is a lot of juice for you, something something blah.

Not even interested in the form factor. Why do I need to be discreet? If the people I'm around don't accept me as me for all of me, inclusive of my vaping then I'm finding different people to be around. If it's due to "work" conditions well if I'm off the clock, on an outside break wtf does it matter to the bosses? I'm on my own time allegedly, so none of their concern. If it seems they're going to negatively make it so, I'll find work elsewhere. I won't abide asshole bosses. Never have won't start.

Anyone here like the Innokin D22 tank? Just curious. I bought the thing last xmas and so far it's a piece of crap. It's been sitting since the first coil. Put 2nd coil in yesterday to see if my thoughts changed.. nope. I can't believe I wasted money on this.

That tank has a 0.5 ohm coil that's recommended for 14 to 19 watts? Jeez, I've never heard of such a thing. Sounds wimpy!

Well if you know anyone that actually uses the D22 I will send them this one. However, the thing is hard to clean. The worst tank I ever bought. (Regret). I have 3 coils I'll send. I think they are 0.8. The 0.5 that came with it lasted a mere two hours if I remember correctly. I hate to throw it away. I won't give this to a fellow co worker. (I was thinking about it but it would make a very horrible experience).

That's one of the bad things about vaping. Trying different hardware is always a crap shoot.

I'd sure speak up if I knew anyone, but I don't.

Wish I could talk you into trying a Merlin Mini RTA. One of the easiest to build and wick, doesn't leak, and great flavor on a single coil.

The OBS Engine Nano is a cake walk to build and wick as well. I love mine. Great single coil banger. Definitely not for mtl though for sure.

I might buy one. Right now I'm to busy with work and gardening but in the fall I'll have time. I have a kanger subtank rba someone here gave me. I bought wire, cotton and coilmaster. I'll have to play with making coils.

What about the Geekvape Ammit 22mm? The merlin mini is hard to find. The geekvape ammit has been discontinued but I can find it for 12.99. LOL by the time I order (get around to it) it will be gone. However, I do see a few US vendors still selling it.

FT has the Mini, stainless is $21.90. If you don't need it right away...

The only Ammit I've tried is the RDA, and it's such a tight draw I don't even use it. Overall though I am fond of Geekvape hardware, so if the RTA isn't super-tight MTL, I'd be willing to give it a try. The deck on the Ammit actually looks quite similar to the M-Mini.

ETA: I don't even like gold hardware, but I gotta tell ya, I WANT that gold-plated Mini on FT.

Its this one. If its tight I don't care for it. I like a draw to be a little airy.

That's the same Ammit RDA that I have. Very tight draw. I doubt you want that.

Sorry to be so slow responding. Some vape sites I can't access at work, so had to wait until I got home.

How about an Asmodus C4? Great RDA for flavor and lush vapor. $19.95 and free shipping at Vapor Range, use code JULYTHE4TH for 20% off. Imo it's one of the best.

Oh wow, that makes it less than $16. Yay! This is a good thing to start my day on. I still need to wait to the 22nd though to have a vape shopping spree. The funds get dispatched on certain dates only. By then though I'll have a fair stipend with a few visits taking me to Parkersburg.

Would like to set down and learn to knit or crochet again. With all the yarn my wife has brought in, I could surely whip stuff up to sell on Etsy or the like. My trouble is I kind of need an actual person in the flesh to show me, get me going the right direction. She doesn't want to show me out of being stingy with her yarn, and she gets frustrated trying to show me, I get lost.

Writing apparently isn't going to let me see revenue coming in. It's just not "there" for me whatever the reason. I'm tired of bashing my head into it. I know I can do it well but it just doesn't stick on the wall. Hm, I'm thinking someone coats the walls with PAM though. Would not surprise me they did.

Well at least I can be happy at lower than $16 for a C4. That helps offset realizing I'm growing fur out my ears, now. *chuckles* No, no, no, I refuse to hear it if anyone says I'm getting old. No, I don't get old. Not me, I'm Peter the Pan! I should go find my shadow, it's run off again.

I used to be a crocheting monster. Crocheted so much between Thanksgiving and Christmas one year that I gave myself tendinitis in my right elbow. Made blankets for everyone in my family that year. Had to mostly give it up after that, except for the occasional beanie for the guys in my family who love them in winter, or the occasional dishcloth.

Some forty-or-so years ago I bought a book called "Mon Tricot Knitting Dictionary" (there's one on eBay now, if you're curious see item 292971136798). Every knitting and crochet stitch you can think of is in that book. I made a ton of things over the years using it, until the book finally just fell to pieces. It was gross anyway, from being carried around - had coffee splatters and probably ice cream and potato chip grease, and everything else on it. Forty years can do that to paper. :) Anyway, it uses European stitch terminology, so a "single crochet" in America is a "double crochet" in that book, and a double is a treble, etc.

That C4 is worth much more than $16, in my mind. It'll be money well spent. I want to buy another one, but really don't need it. Have a half dozen or so RDAs right now that aren't being used except very occasionally because my RDAs outnumber my mods.

If you can be real sneaky and catch those people with the Pam, you can knock 'em in the head and drag 'em out to the curb. It will serve 'em right, dammit. :cuss2:

I will keep that book in my list. Got a small list of stuff I'd like to get vaping wise. Might serve to get a book on knitting & crocheting as well. :) If I don't get use I'm sure she might. I got a knifty knitter here as I'm thinking of setting up as a lap loom. I actually snagged one back out of my set she sold or gave away.

I keep trying to find those Pam folks. I'm terrible sneaky but not quite sneaky enough. They must listen ahead several years to hear me thinking "Ah ha, I'll trap them now!"

Speaking of crocheting..I mastered it in my 20's. I wanted to learn to make stuffed unicorns (1980's). I figured it out. I made one couch blanket and a few socks (using a thick stitch). I gave my mom a pair. She said she loved it but then I found it in her rummage sale years later. LOL I taught my son to do it and haven't touched it since. I wanted to reupholster my kitchen chairs. I did that awhile ago. I ordered decent foam and did it. Will I do it again..no. It did take me a few months of you tube to figure it out.

I'm really bumming lately. Found out yesterday I'm out of remission. I have a month of predisone to take now. My keto diet obviously didn't help tone down the inflammation. IDK if I want to do the liver biopsy now. Still debating. Autoimmune sucks but it is what it is (which means I'm screwed no matter what). :) I still won't let the beast define me. Moving along..

I'm sorry to hear your medical news. Yeah, that stinks alright. There is an anti-inflammatory diet that's really similar to an elimination diet, and it works, but it is hard. I was having trouble at one time with sensitivities to gluten and nightshades, and spent 18 months on that diet.

My son has something autoimmune going on now, and having a helluva time getting a diagnosis.

No fun, not at all.

Only use for a pod at my house is cbd. Just got the aspire pod thing and it works good 4 cbd.

Sorry to hear about your son. Keep trying to figure it out because it can really mess one up. Sometimes, going to a autoimmune group (such as facebook) and internet web groups can help narrow the disorder (or disease) depending on who you talk to. If there is anything I can do to help (have some experience in diagnosis being a rehab/step down unit/LTC nurse). I do have some personal experience as well.

*nods* That might be something I think on a while. Not sure though. Hm, if it's dedicated to cbd then maybe it'll have decent potency even as in a tank. I didn't get potency until I direct dripped, but a tank just for cbd, maybe. How's it faring for you?

*big warm gentle friendly hugs for you both, steps away* Sorry to hear of your difficulties. I oddly am recalling something from my Pap. It is relevant here because I'm now reminded how I knew that it was something I need to do then but could not put to words.

Pap had taken a spill and his work sent him to hospital. He was there for observation for at least three days. I went up to see him as soon as I got word, left my work & got a ride from someone who was able to leave the plant and going that way. Got there and he fussed.

I told him someone in my plant had heard of his spill, got word to me. He still fussed. "Nothing here you can do," he told me. Later on mom arrived and was a bit concerned in how I managed to get there when she followed the squad in. I chuckled and asked if she brought grandma, which i knew she had. told her I got a ride straight to the hospital.

My Pap was a good man, not often far wrong if even wrong. Recalling it now and thinking of difficulties people face reminded he was wrong then. There was something I could do, I could be there. And yes at times it might seem trivial or not anything. I know though there are times it can be of great importance, just to be there. I hope you got folks who can be.

Good. Its only cbd juice. No nic. Works better n faster for pain n anxiety. My wife n i use way less too. Was dropping 1500 mg strength. And vaping 600mg works better and is cheaper. It holds 2ml and i refill evry 3 days(ish). N thats for 2 people using it. The avp by aspire is actuly nice. Not to mention it is portable and fast to use.
Other than cbd i have no use for it and wouldnt own 1. Or any pod.

Alright. I might have to look around but yes, that does sound ideal. First Ducky link brought me to MFS, $25 or so, can probably find it lower. Not sure I can get one this spree or not. Got a few different things in mind. Might not bother with a couple regulated mods I'm looking at for dirt cheap, opt for this instead.

Not sure yet though, have to see how that damn money stuff does, usually it runs away screaming. I've yet to figure out a way to trap it. Well I do know how but stop and think I've only spent one tenth of what I would have smoking for x number of years, so what if I buy vape gear/juice? Least it ain't coffin nails.

Honestly you can have the same results with the right mtl set up on a regulated.

I thought about the pod things. I just can't go backwards in time. :) I started in 2010 and remember the first ecigs, etc. I'm a simple MTL vapor-er but I have to have around 20 watts at least.

In a similar boat. I started with Njoy cig-a-likes, then to Egos with evod tanks. Been DL using a squonk mech wit RDA for a good while now. Not sure I can go back to a tank even. I'll find out though.

Wow, I haven't been getting notifications. I finally got one here, and see that it was busy after all LOL. Been working day shift for a few weeks and it has thrown me of completely sleep wise. I'm hoping that starting this week I can get back on my night shift again.

Getting a noisy cricket v1 this Thursday payday. Maybe Wednesday since Thursday is the 4th. Really excited about it. I miss using my nc. It's the first thing in a while I've been able to look forward to.

Actually that's not completely true. I finally got me a new vehicle. For a 2016 Dodge Journey. Drives like a dream.

I'm sorry to hear that your autoimmune is acting up again @Artemis and about your son as well @nadalama. I will have you both in my prayers and hope the best result possible will be yours.

I hope to be more active now that I'm almost done with day shifts. I've missed you all. I'm glad to be back amongst friends

I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested

You must work a swing shift or something? Just remember the July 4th sales are near. :)
Congrats on the new car.
Thanks for the thoughts. I had my liver biopsy and it was a trip.
It won't define me no matter what the results are.
Tired as hell right now. Worked short staffed again.
