I customized a Lost Vape Thelema by recovering the battery door.

Seem to have killed my ohm reader building tab. Anyone have any suggestions on a good new one? Preferably one that plugs in to the wall but anything that reads accurate.

Too tired to go take a pic of the old one but it was the small geekvape model and it was pretty old so I'm sure it was time.

I can build on my Pulse v2 for now but definitely time to start looking.

I use an old DNA133 mod.

Any old mod will be fine honestly.

You probably could have someone print a base and use an old mod inners and button to make another.

But yeah, any cheap old mod works… even cheap new mod

Some piece of shit out there in the world tried to steal $750 on one of my cards today. Makes me so mad that people do this kind of thing. Luckily it was flagged as an abnormal purchase. I have to get a new card. Last year another piece of shit tried to go on a spending spree on one of my other cards.

Just happened to my wife as well recently. Huge pain in the ass! Sorry to hear that and it would really be nice if people put as much effort into working as they do for stealing!

Sorry to hear that.

Not sure if you’re using a bank card or credit card, either case; you can set limits and approvals by text.

I have insane limits on my credit cards, but I placed text verify on any purchase above $1

That and I use virtual card numbers provided by my card issuers for any large purchases.

Like when I bought my Commencal Meta AM 29 Essential… virtual card number, no way will I rely on a business’ low end data security.

With the amount of vape mail I see you post, I can only assume the data was leaked by one of the places you bought from… and it won’t be a recent purchase leak, but more than likely from months prior.

I bought the Odin DNA 250C the other day for this exact purpose. It has enough watts for dry firing those much larger builds that I like to experiment with sometimes, and will fire them regardless of whether they're below .1 ohm whereas my Wismec RX300 can't, BUT... for "normal" builds, in pure terms of practicality, nothing really beats a (reliable) small tab-style ohms reader such as the one that I linked, as it's just so much easier to build on in comparison.

It's a debit card that I keep around $1,000 on. I really need to look over what my spending options are and stuff like that. The person trying to steal called the bank people associated with my debit visa card. They couldn't verify that it was really me so the bank froze it. I rarely spend over $150 at any time with that card so a spending limit would be great.

Yeah I know right? I suppose they see it as easy money and have little to no conscience. I keep trying to think back but its no use. Best to move on and try to avoid it in the future.

I have a debit-type American Express card that I can fund from my Visa check card. I've been considering starting to use that instead of my regular debit card. That way I can move however much money I need to that card and leave it empty otherwise.

Ordered my first Aromamizer Plus from FT the other day, to go on this Atocha that I just got. The Doc RDA is doing well on the Atocha, but I'd really rather have a tank because I'm just lazy as hell about dripping.

The Aromamizer is supposed to ship on the 22nd, and I didn't select any special shipping on it this time, so it might get here by Thanksgiving.

Liking the Atocha more, still think the silver plating is ugly, but I'll get over it eventually. It vapes so good, it's just hard to dislike the thing. :)

Some time between last night and this morning. Also charged some batteries, cleaned some contacts just generally, filled bottles, vaped. *grin* Yeah, I vape and do vape stuff in my sleep. *chuckles*

"You know you're a vaper when, ..." you replace coils into RDA/s in your sleep.

I set up my Requiem kit the other day. I love the size (so tiny). I put in one of my SFC coils (N80: 3x27/42ga), but wrapped it at 2.5mm ID. Resistance is .18Ω and I'm rotating 20S batteries. It hits really decent. Might even be a bit much for this RDA but I like it. The side fill is a bit of a pain but works well if you go slow. Somebody on Reddit asked me about the fire button. My answer: it's really firm and has a short throw. Mine's the brass version which comes with a brass fire button and other brass accessories.


___________



I set up a SQ Rabbit RDA for the first time last night. So far, loving it! The flavor has been great and I really like how the draw feels. It's got an old school vibe. I'm using the same wire only wrapped around a 3mm screwdriver. I cut the legs at 6mm and it was so simple to set up. Looking through the AF slots, I can barely see the bottom of my coil. It's been working really well but I'll probably drop it down to see what happens.

Most banks offer two-factor authentication now. That means in order to make a purchase you not only have to be there with the card but you have to answer a text message at the same time.

Ordered some stuff for this:
This is kind of the same design as the last pnp SMRT coil. Both came after Vapefly's Kriemheld RMC coil.


They also made this which will most likely fit your tanks that use Baby Beast styled coils. nexMINI RBA:
WotofonexMINIRBACoil_12.jpg

In most of the RBA threads I've seen, people have asked about and wanted a single coil RBA for their tanks (that use BB coils). The only one I had or ever heard about was this one:
_mnmipL7clbtDPKmKt0dAwIzk66tkThmJmcR9DBirBM.jpg

I didn't like it. The airflow is way too restrictive. We'll see how the new one does but it looks promising. The RBAs are something I've wanted for a while. I hope they work in most tanks and vape well. The rebuildable mesh coil is pretty cool. There's 3 different kinds of mesh. I'm less excited about that stuff but still ordered some of it.

After Google led me to a post here in the forum about the Bonza tube's button being so hard to press (it ain't just me), I took the suggestion in the post and ordered a spring kit from Home Depot to see if I can find a spring that will make it a bit easier to use.

I switched out the spring for the magnets, and that was even harder to push than the spring, so I put the spring back in. Can't wait to get a bit weaker spring in it, because when you can get the thing to fire, it vapes like a champ.

My bank is so suspicious, they once locked my debit card because someone in another state tried to make a $10 purchase with it. I love my bank, and I'll be staying with them.

Re my Bonza mech tube, the spring kit from Home Depot came yesterday (UPS drove their big brown truck down our nasty driveway to deliver a package worth 5 bucks and was about the size of a medium paperback book - go figure). Took me about 5 minutes to find a replacement spring and get it switched out.

Hubbs told me the spring might weaken over time, being exposed to heat, so I rambled through that kit and grabbed all the same-size springs out (there were three more) and put those in my miscellaneous vape junk box so I'll have them if that happens. Also kept the original spring.

I hope it stays pretty much like it is now with the new spring, because the firing pressure is perfect. Easier to fire for sure, but not so easy that it feels wimpy. I'm calling this a success for now, and we'll see how it holds up.

Anyone else who has a Bonza that's making them crazy - this is a fix worth trying.

Not today but 2 days ago.
I got a grape flavoured vape juice recently with an order crazy cheap $2 for 60ml offer. Wasn't my thing so emptied the tank half way through and binned the bottle. The flavour wouldnt budge from the coil which was new when I tried the grape vape. I binned the coil, soaked the tank in iso/distilled water mix, cleaned it, new coil and filled with a coffee diy. Took 2 tank fills for the flavour and smell of grape in the background to finally go. It must have clung to the seals even though they were soaked and washed too.
Never again a grape vape for me. :blech:
Thinking back the only other flavour that clung and caused the same thing needing to wash out the tank and fit a new coil was Musk.

Got back this morning from an extended weekend trip with hubby. The motel was no smoking anywhere (is there any other kind anymore?) and there were signs everywhere saying not only "no smoking" but also "no e-cigarette use." I vaped in our room anyway. High Ohm/low power, high PG mild tobacco flavor e-liquid, Considering sending them a letter, w/o identifying us, telling them that I did so, defying them to notice any lingering effect at all, and explaining why the policy should be changed.

The nice thing is that, unlike our last -- pre-covid -- getaway, I didn't have the hassle of going outside 1st thing each morning & last thing each night for a cigarette.

When I traded for MrMeowgi’s Billetbox he vaped a grape… it took FOREVER to get rid of that grape

Hot water bath, scrubbed, sonic cleaner, alcohol bath…

Nothing worked, but time.

It’s one of those flavors if you vape and make a trade, warn the buyer

I mean it was spotless, just spotless grape

Yeah, like the musk one I tried, TFA Musk. It was in a Joeytech Ego Aio, a number of yrs ago now, I ended up throwing the entire thing in the bin it drove me so crazy.

Put myself on the list for another BMM device… figured since I’ll have an extra boro RBA once the Brig’d V2 comes in, might as well have a device for it

Granted I am selected… if so, another Stash 2.1

I set my alarm this morning for 11:58AM. I've been waiting all week to order new LE Cloud Cap sets for my An RDA by Coilturd. They were listed as sold out until today at noon (10AM Pacific Time). I got the two I wanted ordered 😁. It said "Very Limited" so I'm guessing a small run from Palmer powders. Some of them sold out in a short time. I don't know anybody that likes this atomizer more than me. I think it's an incredible RDA. I prefer the Cloud cap look and airflow so I've been buying different colors. 25mm looks better on most of my tubes as well.

I got a crazy looking yellow one and a gunmetal-ish looking one called black smoke. They're a bit spendy considering the regular CC sets are only $15. Oh well.. I haven't been spending much money on vaping items recently. There's nothing I really want anymore. That's a good thing, I know..

That looks fantastic, may I ask how you did that? Is that a self adhesive film you used?
It's a Snake Skin pelt I ordered on eBay.
You take the four screws from both sides of the cover and remove the frame. Peel off the existing cover and use it for a template.
Cut it out of the pelt and to give it the padded look like the original I glued a thin piece of foam rubber to the back.
Glue it into place then put the frame back on.

My morning started with advising my friend on how vaping is a better option than quitting smoking. He seemed almost convinced and bought a vape starter kit from one of my trusted stores. We vaped together for like an hour watching a movie and had a good talk about life.

Washed ALL my vape stuff and packed just about everything away for our move. I left out 1 mech, 2 regulated, 1 squonk. 2 rda's 1 squonk rda and 2 tanks. This sucks.

He hasn't even found us a place to move to yet. I'm about ready to go into serious meltdown mode. I tell you if I am still here and married after this bullshit, it will be a freaking miracle. I'm so tired and hurt, I have 5 more days to get the house ready to show and with the way the market has been it should go fast (which is not what we need right now) Plus, he's a hoarder and there is SO MUCH CRAP everywhere.

Oh and I am having lumbar injections tomorrow, yep not supposed to do anything for a few days after that. Well, that's not gonna happen. He doesn't even stop to think of this ( meaning me ) No big deal, Deb can do it. Psh.................

Okay rant over

Oh ha ha I better give you a size idea. IMG_20210824_200110959.jpg
Great guess though. There is a little drawer on the bottom that had my ex-boyfriends insurance card in it so this is something i had before I met my husband. The insurance card is dated 1987, now I may have stuck that card in there at a bit later date but it should not of been too many years after.

Okay I don't want to keep going OT as it's not vape related. This is a floppy disc holder. LOL they don't even make those anymore I don't think. Anyway, with as stressed as I am right now I needed the giggle.

Going another round with the Bogan Blotto. All I hear is how great it is and i must be wicking it wrong. Giving it another try today wicked like Bogan himself said to. 2.5mm ID coils so there's plenty if room. Will give it a few days of use and if it's no better then back to the Intake Dual I go.

Have you tried doing a single coil? I prefer a single coil in the blotto, but that's just me. Worth a try though
