    BirdDog got a reaction from gag8tor in Driving a 20 year old car   
    My car is 20 years old and has about 110,000 miles on it. Here is a list why I love my old car.
    1. It is old, no one will want to steal it.
    2. It is a stick shift, good luck stealing it.
    3. Small gas tank, cheap to fill.
    4. Bright pink color, can't lose it in a parking lot.
    5. No car payment.
    6. Cheap insurance.
    7. No auto, shift on the fly 4 wheel drive.
    8. No power steering, great upper body workout.
    9. Engine compartment isn't full of all that computer crap, everything is easily accessible.
    10. It has an ashtray and cigarette lighter.
    The downsides to my old car.
    1. Soft top, does not stop thieves.
    2. No more stereo or speakers. Thank you thieves, may the 20 year old tape deck and speakers line your pocket book.
    3. The trim is starting to come off.
    4. 4 wheel drive eats gas
    5. Parts may be hard to find in the long run. Still cheaper to fix than a car payment.

    Now hooked on Ray Donovan. Burning through the first season. Christian Slater will have to wait and it has now interrupted my binge of Stargate Atlantis.

    Everyone has given you advice about adjusting the settings and lowering the nicotine content. There could be another issue going on.
    When you first stop smoking you spend time searching for a flavor that works and matches what your body is wanting with throat hit etc. Your throat could be telling you it is time to switch up flavors. I pretty much vaped the same flavor for the first 6 months and then was ready to move on to something else. You might want to try a new flavor, one that isn't so harsh.
    What flavor are you vaping now? You mentioned a brand but not the flavor.
    Just throwing this out there.

    I have heard some good and bad things about True Detective. My mom couldn't get into it. It is on my list to try. Binge watching Stargate Atlantis, in the last season now. Will move onto Universe when this is done. As for current TV, Halt and Catch Fire and Mr. Robot. I like Christian Slater, I admit it.

    BirdDog reacted to Tam in Vaping Voltage Charts   
    Doing this "little chart" involves too many variables that you'll either wind up with so many multiple charts in order to take in each variable or you wind up with one huge chart that will be so difficult to understand that noobs won't use it. If you're doing multiple charts and want it to be accurate, you'll need one for each change in coils, resistance, battery type, tank, juice (each little change in PG/VG ratio will require a whole new chart), etc. That's the only way you'll come out to being close to accurate. Even then, it's no guarantee.
    I'm not being facetious when I suggest starting low and turning it up until you get the slight burnt taste then turn it down. That's how most of us find the optimal vaping spot for that juice, tank, battery. By "slight" I don't mean to keep turning it up until it burns up the wick or blows up in your face (your car crash scenario), just until you barely notice a burnt flavor or get a harsh vape. It's the easiest, fastest, and most accurate way to dial in your sweet spot without having to resort to inaccurate charts and take the chance of burning up your wick by starting too high in power.

    Picked up the wrong tank, popped out a new coil, filled the tank and then proceeded to try and figure out why it wouldn't screw together. Yes, I spent several minutes trying to get that thing to work. Then it hit me, wrong coil.

    BirdDog got a reaction from kitsune in Disposible E-Cig Suggestion, please   
    Not sure about a disposable. But if you are looking for something more Cig like, the VUSE is supposed to be good. The reviews are good and it seems affordable. The battery is rechargeable and you only need to replace the cartridges. 
    The most basic we recommend are the Vision Spinner batteries or Kanger batteries. With simple tanks, like the EVOD. All parts are re-usable and you only need to purchase coils and liquid. Less waste with much better draw and flavor. Your other option is to buy a 501 rechargeable battery, more cig like,  and blank cartomizers. You will have to fill the cartos, but it works well without the tight draw. You will still need to buy the liquid.

    Tonight, I learned that carrying backups (spare 18650 battery) serves more than just for vaping. 
    I was picking up my son at Boy Scout Camp tonight, and after the closing campfire we had to make our way to the "north-40" campsite to retrieve his gear.  His flashlight battery was dead, and his spares were back at his campsite.  I had my spare Samsung 25r battery in my backup/supply case, so we were able to illuminate the trails (with both of our flashlights) and make our way to the campsite and back to the parking lot without tripping over a tree root or bumping into a branch
    Just one more pragmatic reason to use CREE flashlights that operate on 18650 batteries!

    I have been to the Dollar Store twice in the last two weeks. Do not give money to a 6 year old for a birthday! I secretly love the Dollar Store.
    I also learned that a trail ride can be free if your saddle is not completely fastened to the horse. Another Birthday wish from a 6 year old. It was not me or the 6 y.o. that fell off the horse.

    The last house I lived in gave me the creeps. It was a fairly recent built home and we were the second owners. The first couple were elderly and both had passed within a few months of each other. Not sure if they passed in the home or not. I was living downstairs and only stayed there for a few months. I had the worst night terrors while there. I would wake up and start yelling at the dark shadow to leave me alone. It would hover in the door way. My cat was always on edge and would let out a nasty hiss for no reason.

    I lost count a few weeks ago and decided to find a list to get a head count. OMG! The list I found was huge! It included every party and independent person currently bidding to get on the final ballot. If the people could get beyond the two party system, there might be a hidden gem in that list.
