My puddy is a pure housecat. I never even considered the house/roaming cat option till I tried to rescue one a few months ago, and went round to see a lovely black and white puss who was scared of vehicles. An inspector came to visit (be a great film title that) and said my house is too close to a main road, so no pooby. But would I consider a housecat? "A what?" And that's where Izzy came in. Born and raised in 4 walls, she's quite happy to be here all day (especially now derp) and there's benefits from having a housecat, not least they don't pick up fleas from everywhere. Ah, but you don't get squidgy remains to step on in the middle of the night! Would love to turn all 3 of them into house cats, but too late now, and we'd never have managed with Pudding - the one who arrived with a broken pelvis - he knew what the cat flap was, and was tryingto get out of it on his 5 mins exercise from his crate, even though his back half was non-functional. I think he's a bit more streetwise than Neo, having been hit before (don't even know where he came from - was abandoned at the vets). Willow, little black girl, would stay in forever, but she doesn't go much further than the garden, and if its raining, comes in to use the litter tray
The fella who found him last night, rang this morning to find out how he is! What a gent!

Hmmm......
It could be safe if he used the correct power supply, but why oh why oh why?
4 people need to be in the vicinity of a plug socket to have a vape! Eh?

If you find an auto battery that's not a cig-a-like, I'd be interested to hear about it (Not that I want one, but don't think you'll find one) The trouble with an auto, is I believe they can bork very easily if a drop of juice gets in them, which can happen quite easily with a lot of clearos. Ego/evod/Riga is probably the way forward, even if its just a little 650mah or something.

You're gonna struggle No matter what, it'll need charging. Don't think you'll get an auto battery that's not a cig-a-like. Cleaning and filling - if you are doing it, you can use anything - would suggest evod/mini protank, but I think there maybe newer/better things available? Not sure about using cartos, as if she drains it and burns it, it'll not be worth refilling as it will always taste burnt. What dou you use? Has she tried it? Could you lend her some for a week or so to see if she likes it?

I wish I had room to build an ark ionian - can't move round here for animals! At least this time Neo is insured - last time, he lost an eye, which we dropped £1200 on! Nowt but hassle and expense from the menagerie, but I wouldn't be without any of them. (Had one of the chooks in the kitchen most of last week with a prolapsed vent - in fact, we've had a crate on the kitchen worktop since November, with some resident or other!) Thanks, igual - don't think we'll get him home till at least Monday whatever, but we'll find out how bad he is once he's past the shock risk and can be sedated/anesthetised. He's got over one RTA, and we adopted Pudding who had a 'jigsaw' pelvis after an RTA, so it looks like the crate on the kitchen worktop hospital ward could be there for some time to come.

Some of you may remember, beginning of April last year, (less than a week after I switched to vaping full time) I posted about our black and white cat losing an eye whilst out playing with the cars. He fully recovered, and has led a normal life since.
Well, My phone rang at 7:40 tonight - just outside the house, he's been hit by a car. This time his face is a right mess, and he lacerated my arms trying to get him into a cat box!(I thought this was a good sign, that he had the strength to do this)
We got him to the emergency vet post haste, where they immediately put him on anti-shock and pain meds, and he's stable. He's definitely broken his jaw, possibly in 2 places, but we'll know more tomorrow once they've xrayed him from top to toe. Could also be legs and or pelvis as well.
Feeling a bit down, but he's the 3rd animal we've saved today.
First was a 250g baby hedgehog - no room at any of the local hedgehog rescues, so tomorrow we're visiting one where they'll check him over and possibly give him (her?) some meds, then he'll stay on our kitchen bench umtill he's fat enough to go out. Hopefully, before the winter, but if not, he'll have to stay inside if he's not fat enough to hibernate.
Second was Pennylope - one of our ex-batt hens. We removed about 220ml of yellow fluid from her abdomen with a syringe. Probably only about a third of what's in there, but at least she should be alive tomorrow to remove some more.
And third up - he who plays with cars. We got him to the vet before he passed out (vet said lucky we did)
So, now for a large whisky and a vape of red hots.

If the threads haven't completely stripped buy an airflow controller from vapescape, if the they are well and truly knackered on the vtr then I believe supavape will take it apart and put on a new 510 connector flavourtankMy aerotank came with the airflow controller. Its just weird how the 30s will fit fine...... really pi**ed off I think he means a separate airflow controller. Not to control the airflow, but preserve the threads!

I can see a kick ring on the top cap in the picture you posted. It may be the airflow ring that you see
Please tell me if its not, ive had this mod for over 3 months and cant see any other join that may come apart. Yep - you've taken the airflow off on the right. Now take the beauty ring off the left. It may be overtightened, so mole grips and inner tube, but it SHOULD come off.

Ripshod I know what your saying is correct, the switch pin should be tight and you tighten up to the battery by screwing the whole switch up till it stops on the bottom of the battery. All these clones can be slightly different in there dimensions and mine seems to be 2mm too long. Im sure I could use a couple of washers if I needed to, but it works fine like this. stamina Mine didn't come with a beauty/kick ring I can see a kick ring on the top cap in the picture you posted. Exactly right. Without the kick/beauty run it should look like this

Take the top of the nemi and stick the atty to it, tighten the top pin or screw to atty then stick the top back on the nemi tube. Make sure the bottom pin screw is also tight. ^This And probably don't use the smallest ring - you didn't say what size battery you are trying to use, or if its flat or nipple top.
Or a better answer may be: You'll never get it to work, so send it to me!

I agree, holding your mod with a flannel is a bit daft. And don't do YouTube videos with your trousers undone

sorted it thanks to everyone for the help Do you want your key back now
Glad you got it sorted though. Makes no difference if its flush with the handle or not - if the toerags want to snap the lock to get in, and it is flush with the handle, they'll just york the handle off - its only held there by 2 screws into PVC. You can get euro locks that snap at a predetermined position, not allowing access to the tumblers, but apparently, that can be circumvented as well At the end of the day, if they want in, they'll get in. All we can do is make it more difficult for them to get in, than it is next door!
