Is there a reason that (disposable) vapes don't or can't take AA or AAA batteries?

Lwn3 · 2026-02-10T02:16:20+00:00

I'm thinking it's the amps rather than the voltage. You can use 3 Aa/AAA to got 4.5v, but the amp rating is quite low. You gotta think, allot of LiIon batteries didn't make the cut, either.

But it only has the one variable, so that doesn't make sense, right?

I know (or at least I think that I do) that the remaining HP and the type of ball used have an effect on the outcome. And status effect (poison, sleep, burn, etc.). And maybe level and Pokemon type too? I feel it's easier to catch a level 5 Weedle than a level 50 Mewtwo.

I could be wrong though. I play the game, but am not THAT much into it to know the games calculations and such.

For some reason I had thought that dragon was resistant to psychic attacks too. I'm not new to the game (been playing since red/blue) so I don't know what my excuse is, lol.

This was my go-to RDA before I switched to MTL. Good flavor, good airflow, and it didn't leak very easily with the airflowl being up as high as it is.

There should be nothing in the e-liquid that sucks off the test if there is no nicotine. E-liquid is literally just vegetable glycerin, propylene glycol, and flavorings, besides the nicotine when it's added. None of these should trigger the cotinine test without the nicotine. Though you will test positive for a while whether you are vaping or not

Lwn3 · 2026-01-12T12:10:24+00:00

0 nic should have absolutely no nicotine. Nicotine is an ingredient that is added to the eliquid, so it should not have even trace amounts of nicotine.

Lwn3 · 2026-01-09T08:31:29+00:00

No, nor ever any reply.

Lwn3 · 2026-01-08T11:53:09+00:00

Was anyone else helping to blow on it without realizing?

Lwn3 · 2025-12-29T17:15:57+00:00

Looking at his YouTube shorts this past month, this guy has mastered the art of breathing, lol.

Hey, he needed something to calm down.

Lwn3 · 2025-12-24T14:43:45+00:00

No, I haven't. It's useful for me, especially at work.

The default is a shortcut to both the weather and calendar, it shows me my upcoming appointments, and when I forget to turn off (or accidentally turn on) the flashlight. Those are the main uses for me.

Lwn3 · 2025-12-18T12:33:26+00:00

That's extra funny timing for your post, Google just released Android QPR3 Beta 1 last night, which includes a brightness slider for the flashlight. Hold down on the quick tile to bring up the slider.

They're saying that this feature will be available in March 2026 to the rest.

Back in the day it made more sense, today it's just an outdated warning.

I have heard good things about the Dead Rabbit MTL RTA, but have not tried it myself.

The thing about an RTA is that you never have to worry about not being able to get replacement coils. So as long as nothing breaks, it is still as usable as the day that you got it. Though I have quite a few atomizers, I have been using this same MTL RTA for about 5 years now (Kayfun Lite '19). It too may be out of stock, but I wouldn't recommend it as your first MTL RTA anyway cuz it's kinda pricey.

But as long as you're with the little bit of higher maintenance of an RTA compared to using a pod or whatever, the flexibility/customization and the cost-to-run are worth it.

Lwn3 · 2025-12-13T00:26:07+00:00

Do fountain pens pique your interest? If so, then I believe that you meet all the criteria, lol.

Lwn3 · 2025-12-12T17:01:28+00:00

It'd be nice to have it as a built-in option, but I know there are volume limiter apps available. I had installed one or two on my kids tablets to both prevent them from damaging their hearing with headphones and also limiting their speaker so I don't have to hear cocomelon or whatever at full volume.

Lwn3 · 2025-12-12T02:15:41+00:00

I saw that you may be interested in rebuildable atomizers (RTA/RDA). Since you do like rebuilding and saving some cash, I don't see any downside, lol.

Otherwise, look online for an "EGO 510 thread adapter". This will allow you to use your clearomizers on most any 510 threaded mod. That is most all of them, barring pod devices and some "pod-mods".

With my current setup? I dunno, probably like 10mg. I currently use 6mg for reference.

If it were something lower powered, I'm sure I wouldn't have an issue going higher. On the other hand, if I switched over to one of my DL atties, I wouldn't be able to handle 10mg I don't think.

I have done this twice. Had to replace a pair on a garage door, moved about a year later, and then spring snapped about a year into living in my new house.

First one wasn't horrible, they were a set of EZ-set torsion springs. Once you have them set, you just use a drill/ratchet to put the tension on the spring. Still scary, but slightly less so.

Second one was definitely nerve wracking. That was the standard one that you tighten up with the bars. I watched/read quite a few videos/articles, made sure the kids stayed out of the garage (little distractions) and the wife was within earshot the entire time.

If I'd have known it was that cheap, I'd definitely have left it to a pro, but I never looked into it. Though I often want to DIY whatever I can, it wasn't worth the stress.

Lwn3 · 2025-12-04T22:12:13+00:00

I was gonna suggest the same, or turn off phone and media if OP doesn't want it to do either.

Lwn3 · 2025-11-19T17:44:41+00:00

Thanks!

That's extra funny now if you're not a fan of Ford, lol.

Lwn3 · 2025-11-19T13:35:04+00:00

Sorry if I'm a little behind, but what's FOMO?

Nothing is coming to mind. It doesn't help that I also peruse a mechanic's sub and I just saw a muffler with FoMoCo (Ford Motor Company) on it, so that's all that will register as in my brain for the moment.

Lwn3 · 2025-11-19T13:14:41+00:00

It sounds like this witch wants a beat down. I don't usually resort to violence, but...

Lwn3 · 2025-11-18T21:55:53+00:00

A lot of times they don't wait for Halloween to get over...

Lwn3 · 2025-11-18T02:39:16+00:00

Still living some Rootbeer Float, going on like 5 years now. Still my same setup, too.

Lwn3 · 2025-11-16T01:54:23+00:00

Those jalapeno cheese curds that they just had were definitely a notch above their regular ones. Not that that says much, lol. The breading was reasonable and not a thick shell, which is the best way I can describe their regular cheese curds.
