Hello everyone! “Happy” Labor Day Weekend! I put happy in quotes because it’s actually kind of sad to me. The unofficial end to summer. I love the fall but don’t do well during the dark months.

Anyways, I’m breaking down and want to buy a pod system just to check it out. Plus I haven’t bought anything vape related for awhile and I have MAJOR Shinyitis withdrawals lol!

I’m looking at a

YIHI SXMINI PUREMAX 2 35W POD SYSTEM​


But my only concern is the 3ml pod but everything else about it like the tip shape, slim battery and other chip features.

Does anyone have any other suggestions that include the small round tip and size that might have a bigger refillable pod? Or if it want it this small then I’m pretty much looking at just 2ml pods?

I’m buying extra pods but I know nothing about pods. Can they be sealed to carry around or no - I just need to carry juice with me?

I’m a heavy vaper and need something AT LEAST 35 watts.

Any suggestions are welcome!!

Morning shinies ;)


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What is the difference between them?
More efficient build and wick imo. My only 2 cons for the dr solo are the the top cap doesn't come off therefore harder to clean efficiently and lower volume; would much rather have a wider glass width wise. I do appreciate the shorter chimney/glass and don't mind glass overhang (as long as the base itself has no overhang). Flavor is a tick above better than the mr and wicking is so easy, no thinning required at all. The way the deck is set up you can nearly vape it dry before filling. I still enjoy the mrs but the sheer convenience of the solo build/wick knocks the mr down a notch (with the exception of cleaning). Honestly if all I need is a dry burn and rewick on the solo it takes half the time; of course the trade off is I spend a bit more time filling more often. Wordy explanation but I'm sleepy and probably repeating myself too much.lol

Trying to find sqounk mods. (also new here)

I will go poking around there and see what i can find! I appreciate the info! If i can find any second hand, what should i keep my eye out for as something to pick up for squonking?
Irecently bought a second hand uwell crown 1 to fit the rebuildable cartridges i got from wetvapes. Worked great but i forgot about the age of the o-rings and when one gave way I had to make some quick moves. If you do coil cartridges cartridge supply is a big deal. For o-rings you need the material (almost always silicone) the diameter of the gasket itself, and the diameter of the ring. They stretch like rubber band but they get thinner when they do it. It took a couple tries to get some the right size.

I think a lot of the problem with imports to the US is related to the new regulations Trump & co put into effect on August 23, packages that have a value of less than $800 and are not business to business shipments.

As far as I understand it, the US removed an import code set that had been used without replacing it with a new one. The requirement for advance collection of import fees can be very problematic when returning packages, as to who covers what, etc.

I haven't studied the details, but I know that the Norwegian post office doesn't ship to the US right now, that's about 130k packages annually.
I think there are about 25 other countries too.
Also it would require the shipper and importer to state the contents of the package. Vape gear is sort of legal or not depending on whether it has approved, and nothing much has been approved. Doubt "filters" would work anymore. Then down the road that would make it easy to stop imports.

I was told of a really cheap one. Wetvapes.com had some capos for $5 bucks each. I bought 3. They may have some still left. Their whole clearance section is pretty good. I also picked up RDAs for the mods. There aren’t as many left as there used to be, and when i first looked the only ones left were weird colors. If that doesn’t bug you though it’s a good place to look. It’s not fast though. You’ve got to wade through a lot of pods and disposable stuff.
It’s only useful for nort Americans though. A judge recently declared most of the trump tarries illegal, but didn't halt them. With international trade still in chaos, international shipping is hard and expensive.
Capos have no tc at all, but theyre about as small as 21700 squonks get and theyre well laid out. Thing comes with everything. Even a 20700 battery which i use on another device that will take 20700s but not 21700s (View attachment 1031692
