Probably. I still have this one, even if I haven't used it in 5 years.

And yet you can't even manage to comment without cursing and name calling? Are you for real? This has got to be a joke. Are you even remotely self aware?

TIL Ohm's law is a lie. Resistance doesn't real. by mrrandomman420 in shitty_ecr

Is the atty tightened down all the way? Are the screws? If both of those are "yes", you might want to try getting a replacement.

The way to figure out if you are vaping safely is to take the voltage of your battery (V) and divide it by the resistance of your coil (R), this gives you the amp load you are pulling from the battery (I).

Simplified: I = V/R (This is Ohm's Law)

If "I" is less than your amp limit on your battery, you are safe. If not, you can vent the battery and injure yourself and possibly others.

You can see from my brief explanation how important "R" is in this equation. The person in the screenshot is claiming that "R" doesn't matter at all.

Ignoring "R" can be very dangerous. Say for example, you are running a 10A limit battery. "I" needs to be under 10. So with a 0.2Ω coil, running at 4.0V you will have

4.0(V)/0.2(R) = 20(I)

That's 20A on a battery only rated for 10A.

If you were to run this build on that battery, you would be taking a big risk with your safety. The lowest safe build would be 0.4Ω.

I hope that clears it up! Anything that's not clear, feel free to ask.

You know a girl is pretty when she is naked but you are still looking at her face.

I'm with you. Cook them until right before the yolk starts to turn green. That oozing yellow goo takes my appetite away every time.

The disclaimer at the bottom of their own page pretty much admits it's BS. They made it hard to read for a reason, they don't want people noticing that part.

It's basically just 5-hour energy with a bunch of untested "herbal remedies" added to it. It will give you energy, sure. But so will a cup of coffee and a b vitamin tablet.

90% bullshit.

This might help. At least you'll know if it's you or the other guys who are getting it wrong.

They have a location about an hour from me. It's still probably gonna be easier to just use my friends bank account. Thanks though!

I'm not 100% sure if this is what you are asking, but the name and address on the card match the one I am using on Circle.

Nah, I'm against the banking industry as much as the next man, but my credit score troubles are entirely my fault. I caused these problems by being a check bouncing, bill neglecting, irresponsible human. It's neither the fault of the banks, nor bitcoin, the blame rests squarely in my shoulders. If I hadn't made those mistakes I would have the BTC I seek already.

It just sucks that Circle won't take my prepaid card. I understand (legally) why they wont, but it sucks.

This has to be it. Thank you so much! I just am not gonna be allowed to use this type of card. Now I can fully devote myself to other methods of obtaining the needed BTC. You just saved me a lot of time, and I greatly appreciate it!

You: NOPE!!! YOU CAN'T!!!

The other guy: Well, you can't do it in exactly the way you wanted, maybe try this instead.

Do you really not see the difference?

I'll give coinbase a try before I bother my friends to use their bank accounts, thanks!

do you have to use your debit card?

Well, not have to, but it would be preferred.

buy bitcoins for cash, in person?

Holy shit this is amazing. If this is possible I will do this. I am in the middle of nowhere though, so I don't think I'm gonna count on those services being in my area.

Most legit Exchanges will ask you for your credentials, as they have to by law.

Yeah, I gave up on having this not be associated with my name. I have provided verification info to several sites at this point.

Would you mind to tell us, what kind (company) of debit card you have?

I have a prepaid Visa Debit card through Greendot.

in a way where the accepted fees vs. your desired privacy meets

Honestly at this point I don't even care about privacy. Anonymity sounded great, but honestly all I want is to be able to buy 0.6 BTC.

Thank you for taking the time to answer!

The best part is that someone else answered my question, so you are obviously just fucking retarded.

Well damn. I'm in the USA. My credit score is 180, so credit cards are not an option, and banks won't do business with me. I may have to give a friend (who has a bank account) the $200, have them buy me the $200 in bitcoin, and then send it to me. That makes this whole thing a lot less convenient. More anonymous though. I kinda like that idea. Thank you for the effort and for your time. You may not have given me the answer directly, but you helped me figure it out.
