Good morning everyone

@Breazy_Com
We do what we have to do my friend. Even when we just want to curl up. They said fake it till you make it, well that goes for being a person too. Some days are better than others but I still get up some mornings just mad at the world. I put on my happy face and get to it. We are all here praying for you and your son.

California emission tests suck for older vehicles...every two years we have to pass a smog test at a CA approved smog station prior to getting re-registration tags...In this case with the corolla it didn't pass and diagnostics computer flashed a trouble code for a bad catalytic converter.....wish my brother n law would sell his beater and get a newer vehicle...lol

Kimber did you ever get around to trying HIC's Vanilla Nut Coffee yet? I made up 60 ml and 60 ml of Hucks Golden Oreo Cheesecake in my Sunday mix session. If you take sugar in your coffee you might add .5% Marshmallow I make it that way for my nephew.
These are two of my favorites:):D
Why yes! Yes I did! I have a small bottle sitting waiting for a tank to open up. Pretty sure I doubled his %s though.. I have to do that with every one of his recipes I've tried. It's really good!!
I'm about .5 miles from my work, it's a quick ride. Lately I've been walking it to keep the bike outta the salt.

My work is less than that...I can see the building from my front porch. I used to walk all the time, even had snow pants for winter. But my town, and my neighborhood have deteriorated and the night three young men stepped out of the trees and watched me walk home at 11pm was the last time I walked. It seems silly to drive that short distance but they scared me. I've also had break-ins and seen some nasty elements touring the neighborhood so silly or not, I'll drive.

Ah forgot to say. I finally got approval to spend some money after cleaning the garage today soooo.

The only thing holding me back from the griffin is the dual coils... I've always been a single coil girl,,even my Cartos were single coil. Does dual coil make a big difference?? I always hated the dual coil Cartos but I know this is completely different. I was just looking at the Bachelor tank by EHpro... Anyone seen that one? Looks kinda interesting. I stress over this shit cuz $35 for a tank is a lot for me.

Yep same here, I have held back on rebuilding and buying every tank that comes along now because my GS suits my needs just fine and I am content with it:)

Are you a MTL or DL vaper?
The dual coil velocity style deck in the Griffin is a Lung Hitter's dream...It is like a dual coil RDA but with a tank..no dripping needed..
And yes, dual coils do make a big difference for vapor and flavor, and the Griff features adjustable juice control that actually works, adj air control, and even comes with a wide bore delrin drip tip...it's not really suited for tootle puffing,...lol

Velocity style deck is super easy to build and wick..no dry hits and no leaks makes for a great trouble free vape. :)

I've been MTL for 4 years. Never understood DL... Until I upgraded all my stuff. Once I got rid of the carto tanks and got a subtank I started DL and find I really enjoy it. I have three sub tanks, two reaper tanks and a Cubis tank. I also have a Vaporesso target tank but I don't use that one,, it's a pain in the ass. I get "check atomizer" no matter what I do with it. The Cubis tank isn't my favorite either,, pretty tight draw, much more suited to MTL imho.

Ok, I'm gonna order that griffin today... What gauge wire do you guys use???

Yeah I'm in this situation right now. Really rather not have to buy a new car but basically have 2 months to get a new one. New Cat converter and other little things are going to run me $1,000 for the car I got. Outside cali the converter is $150, inside CA it's $750 just for the part. So basically half the value of the car :(. I had plans for my money, but looks like as usual those plans are changing.

Have some one from a different state buy you one and mail it to you, what's the make, model and year of the car. I'll get prices for you like locally if you'd like.

Wow..we found a simple bolt-in converter assembly for the Corolla at Pepboys for like $350 pre order..installing it ourselves saves labor costs..lol

I can order online for an out of state part, but it's different and I've had two people tell me now that if I went with the out of state option it wouldn't pass smog in CA. The good news is one of the guys I go to for car advise has a similar car that uses the same part, it's just that era of Toyota sedans. He found a guide on how to clean them and get it passing, so he's going to try that for his, if it works he'll help me do the same. But, yeah, again CA regulations being a thorn in my side.

If I could use the out of state one, I could drive up to Santa Ana pay some guy $50-100 for labor and have them put in the parts, drop the cost from $1000 to about $400, but again, apparently there's a detectable difference.

Good/bad news again, there's a "turn in" thing in CA where if you own the car for 2 years you can get $1000-1500 for just doing some paperwork and turning the car in. But, I haven't owned it for 2 years yet (bought it a little over a year ago for $2k).

Such is life, just when your bank account is looking nice and you're feeling good it finds a way to bleed that feeling away.

Yikes! I never go over about 30w! Everything I have will certainly do 60 w or higher,,, I'm afraid of dry hits.

Check out the pictures of the Griffin base, look at those juice wells. You don't have to worry about dry hits. Running alien coils in there at 95w and no issues.

Well in my vaping journey I learned never to say never.. I mean if I didn't try something new how would I know if I like it or not? Lol
Remember, you've been a single coil girl (your own words) ..dual coils require more power...dry hits can be caused by improper wicking ...not necessarily too much power...I've found too much power meant a hotter vape, never a dry hit..
That's another reason why I love these new VW mods that let me dial in that perfect vape..lol

Check out Ebay, I know they were $30 and free shipping there at one point, but not sure on availability.
