Just sharing my situation.
I work on live television VR graphics, specifically for SkySports. Obviously we have no live sport therefore no work.
However our manager has offered our departments services to work in sports news... on autocue. This would require us to complete some training and then obviously work in the news gallery.
We’ve been given key worker certificates.
Surely everyone’s job is key worker if you just change the role to be whatever you want.
Not sure how I feel about that. It isn’t my normal job. I’m normally the first one to help but this seems a bit daft to me.
Although I could do with getting out of the house xD
Anyone else’s thoughts on the matter most welcome.

I’ve been vaping about 10 years and I wish I had a bit more of the collector mentality.
I’m almost an anti-hoarder. Anything in the house that doesn’t get used gets removed.
I wish I’d kept all the gear of been through.
Happy with what I’ve got now but there’s nothing that isn’t been used!

I’ve been mostly MTL for a while now. With lots of time on my hands at the minute I went digging through the drawers (not the Mrs’). Got an old cloud chucker cleaned and and built... have to vape it in the garden   |

Over time I came to dislike them, I have spent >> £100 with them years back, I felt they were just "in it for the money" especially after having to try and get customer service for their cock-ups a couple of times. I feel that "in it for the money" business have taken business away from high quality business set up by vapers that understand vaping and vapers, and offer help and advise. So it's good riddance from me. I’m with you on that. Cheap prices and good selection but lacking in actual customer care. I’ve had most of my wire from them in the past but a while back I started moving to purchase from local or more customer centric vape businesses. I don’t mind the extra cost on things that support our community. |

I would consider myself a hobbyist type of vaper. I do like to try the new things that come out. That said, my buying habits have definately slowed down somewhat. In 6 years I’ve probably had 100 setups. I don’t hoard though and move things on before they collect dust. Normally about 5 setups in total at any one time. Currently: Triade200 - Apocalypse Primo - Apocalypse Vt75- KF prime Therion 75c - Berserker Primo SE - Siren 2 I am looking forward to getting Phil/Dimitri/Innokin’s Ares tank when it is released wow, thanks for your contribution to the vape industry, haha. I really wanna be a vaper like you.  what will you do for the items you do not use any more? Sell, trade or giveaway if its not getting used. Reminds me that I have a few bits that could do with new homes ... |

Only one build so far bud but it’s been very good. 0.4mm SS317L 7 wraps spaced around a 2.5mm bit. Wick tight through the coil but loose in the channels. I’ve been using a spaced coil but making sure that the wraps are nice and close but not touching. When you say flavour hasn’t been good, you aren’t getting the density you want or does th vape seen right but just lacking flavour? Adjusting your coil height could be an answer. Wick too tight or too loose could also affect what flavour your coil is producing. I do think some more dabbling is going to fix your flavour, well, I hope so! Thanks Tom , the density is fine its just the flavour. I am comparing against Mini V3 which I find to be very flavoursome. Just vaping Kanthal 26G 2mm id 0.8 ohms and that does not seem bad - I'll try the build you recommend in my other Prime and see how that works. Thanks again Good luck! |

I'm guessing you have found a Kayfun Prime Tom, I know you are a Kayfun expert and wonder if you would share the build which you have gone with. I have tried several different builds and am not satisfied with the flavour with any of them. Any advice would be gratefully received. Peter Only one build so far bud but it’s been very good. 0.4mm SS317L 7 wraps spaced around a 2.5mm bit. Wick tight through the coil but loose in the channels.
