80 euros :O , are you ever going back? Do you need to pay this? I mean will you be extradited for failing to pay?

krissovo

I got the provari back subject to paying the fine, it was almost extortion as there was no trial

Unfortunately Vienna could be my base for next 8 weeks.

Were you fined for arguing over the confiscation in the airport?? It must've got a bit heated, seems extreme...

In that case, keep all the documentation about this incident with you next time to travel there, ready to produce the next time some oversuspicious security automaton looks at your precious.

Maybe print out an info sheet on it so you have something in print to explain what it is?

My provari is forever doomed to hold luggage, for now I will use a kanger and twist when traveling.

My future hand luggage travel rig will be the elips and PCC, looks kind of classy for work, non threatening for security but when I tried it at vapefest I thought it was a nice vape.

The security were just going to confiscate and destroy the device and send me away, I fought back a little verbally and then went on a small "I am not moving until I see a manager" protest blocking the metal detector. Police came, arrested me and then after a hour escorted me to the flight in handcuffs. The provari then became evidence which was officially logged

Austria sucks, I know someone who fell on steps in Vienna and cut herself enough to visit a hospital. Came home to a bill for cleaning the blood from the steps.
Wasn't going back so never paid.

OMG:mad: Talk about overkill. Good for you for standing your ground. I probably would have gone direct to jail

Do you know when you just get the perfect vape....perfect taste, perfect amount of vapour and lovely aftertaste and you just chain vape the whole tank until its empty.............

I'm currently sat at my desk enjoying the same thing (ish)

18mg Long bottom leaf in the RDA with a 2.0ohm coil @ 4.2v (9.24 watts if anyone's interested )

Perfection personified.

im so used to the efficiency of the irish vapeshops when it comes to ordering goods. placed an order on gamestop.ie at 10 this morning expecting it to ship today and arrive tomorrow. no change at all in my order since I made it. cowboys.

Anyone

The slight panic when your battery dies and you cant remember if the other battery is charged.....especially when you are chaining a lovely liquid, and you dont want to stop.

What's santa bringing everyone?? Thinking vaping has my brain fried - for everyone who's shown a slight interest in vaping I'm contemplating Vamos. Seems like my brain has edited out non-vaping related gifts. God only knows what my 3 year old will wake up to

DirtyBollox

i have asked for a pipe mod, dunno if it'll be gotten for me though

Anyone bought a decent media player with ethernet sub €100 for XBMC/OpenELEC ?

So many out there available it's head wrecking.

For the likes of 1channel, sportsdevil and playing files on the network.

Was looking at this one...

Already have a couple of machines running XBMC/OpenELEC, but I need to get a simple plug n' play device to do the job for the older generation.

threads here on the android devices forum about them

i was looking to get one and yeah it is pretty confusing wit the sheer amount of them being released. they're as bad as ecigs for the new revisions and updates.

derra

Yeah I saw that thread and I got the above link from it, there is a HTPC forum as well adding to the confusion about devices.

Was just hoping someone would say here "I got such and such and it works fine""

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

hehehe

i'd imagine most of them would work ok, provided you weren't trying to run 15-30 gig 1080p rips on them. even 8 gig 1080p rips are a bit dodgy over the network, although i think ethernet is better than wifi

i'll link a few i was looking at later today, bookmarks folder is more overgrown than a jungle atm and I don't have the wherewithall to go on a safari atm

derra

Will probably just bite the bullet and see what happens, the fella who gave the link for that one above seems to have a fair idea about them so might send him a PM first.

Definitely use ethernet if possible.

+1 on the bookmarks folder.

It's like a morgue here these days. Can almost see the tumbleweeds :-(

Anyone got any vaping news or has everyone migrated to the FB page??

grindle

We've all set up a group within a group within the vaping group to avoid you.*


*That's how I felt when I learned of the top secret vaping group.

I know, it's tough wthout Digby's vape-status updates...

Here, let's try something out:

"A7 vaping okay, something something Bulli. Kanthal, ribbon Kanthal... Bulli. Starter kit vape Bulli sick of it all, have a good coil at the moment... Bulli."

It's like he's here with us... From beyoooonnnnnnnd.

Mr. Chrome

LMFAO :-D

Green Hornet

I actually burst out laughing here, real laughing........God, he loved and hated that Bulli.

I couldn't believe that he sold it.

As the person who bought it I can totally see why. It's the most amazing vape when it's working perfectly, tons of vapour, strong pure flavours etc. When it's working right my sitting room looks like a sauna.

But then other times, it's working but it's only ok. It's not bad, but it's frustrating when you know how good it can be.

I probably need to look at some videos to figure out how to coil it right.

Green Hornet

Well, I used it exclusively in dripping mode for about a year as well and I still think it's arguably the best dripping atty out there, even still. It does take a bit of experience to get it set up right but the flavour and vapour texture from it are unreal when it is right.

grindle

Lads, not another Bulli thread... we're having that wake! We've reached that place, that space of mind...

I couldn't believe he got rid of it ether, he was obviously very particular about his set-ups. How bad could a DIY coil (with good materials and technique) possibly be that it was unvapable?

Remember when he used to tell newbies where they could get stuff? And then they'd ask for something else and he'd be all "I dunno, maybe someone else does?"
Those were the days...

Or that time he tried genesis atties and failed miserably? Really terribly... I mean (Digby, if you're up there reading this) really, shockingly abysmal SS mesh set-ups.
Digby hu ackbar, PBUH.

Green Hornet

He seemed to have a bad time with the gennies alright. I never got on with them myself either though.....

Ah, but he did love the Bulli.

He didn't get on with the ribbon kanthal either..........he hated clearo's too come to think of it.....think he hated eGo tanks as well. He hated Kanger cartos too...wasn't too gone on the spiral dripper either.

Ah, but he did love that Bulli. He'd come on here about how he'd just made the best coil in the history if the universe and post 15 mins later that he hadnt made a decent coil in weeks.

grindle

Ribbon kanthal is his new favourite thing, fact!

I believe it went something like "A7, coil for a week, love ribbon Kanthal, hot Asians Bulli."
I may be paraphrasing.
