    NotCigs refugee thread

    I think you'll be ok, El Dee. The FDA may be corrupt beyond recognition, but they're not all powerful. They can't ban Kanthal wire, or Li-Ion batteries or Pg or cotton or Flavour Art or 510 connectors or any of elements to put a setup together. Remember some of the crazy things people used to...

    Excellent photographs, kilobit. Single 1.6 ohm coil? Any tootle puffer is a friend of mine :thumbs: By "P3," are you meaning a Provari P3? Are you sure the Liberty is a 100% clone of the Nectar? Is there a story behind that?

    Alrighty then. Got the PayPal link, made the transfer, just waiting for all the other shoes to drop. It was a little weird transfering €120 through Western Bid Europe to a guy named Aleksandr Bozhko who operates from a bunker in the eastern Ukraine (felt like a scene out of a bad spy novel in...

    I got a reply also, but not as encouraging: "good afternoon, Achilles will not be produced anymore, we plan to have Achilles v2, but the production has not even started yet."

    Thanks for the out-straightening, gmoney$. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, no PayPal-linked email. What time is it in Kiev, anyway?

    I count 4 for just this thread, just this afternoon--so far. If we can ring up 19, perhaps we could talk the Ukranian guy into engraving the 20th "to my friend Andria." She's talked up the Achilles enough to have earned a 5% finder's fee.

    I notice that the photo of the kit for the Achilles II is the same photo used for the Prometey III kit. Maybe in setting up the page he thought, "meh, close enough."

    For all the free promotion he's getting on this thread, he ought to be engraving them "to my friend CosmicGopher", "to my friend gmoney$", "to my friend MostlySunny," etc.

    Thanks for that, MostlySunny. I'm wiping the sweat off my face and getting back to work now...

    Oh, come on Andria. Have you never spent absurdly on a genuine Gucci bag? Live a little. I bet you spend $125 in a month on Starbucks alone :p

    Still no email with PayPal link, gmoney$. Can I worry yet?

    Yes, operating a machine shop in a combat zone figures to be inconvenient, but consider a possible advantage: he may be salvaging titanium from downed Russian fighters. I have to admit I'm glad, frankly, that the guy is a starving-artist type with no apparent desire nor aptitude for slick...

    I'm just as cheap as the next guy. Cheaper, in most cases. But in this one, I like the idea of putting a little cash into the hands of the craftsman that actually designed and built the thing—at least the first one. After that I'll likely throw my principles aside and get the clones, even if I...

    Thank you, gmoney$, for being on your toes! One Achilles II (plus a spares kit) ordered; I received two emails instantly, one that promises he will "email you with direct link to pay by PayPal," and another with the order details. No email link to PayPal that I can find, as yet. Is this normal?

    I do like the appearance of the tip; it meshes with the whole Greek warrior shtick that the styling is wrapped around, and I'd hate to replace it, really. But I still have several of the Super-T tips that were made by Super-T Engineering before they went belly-up, and they were/are the best DTs...

    I'm very late to this party. I just discovered the Achilles yesterday (in photographs and descriptions), and I haven't been this excited about a hunk of metal since the first time I saw a Magma. Which turned out to be a leaky little SOB. From the sound of things, I'm too late. I've worn my...

    Thank you very kindly, PaulBHC. I'll be up awhile reading it.

    Noted, but my needs are simple. If they can get an Achilles onto a jet, and that jet can leave Ukranian airspace with anybody shooting it down, I'll be satisfied.

    Achilles RDA

    I've found the seller through his Facebook page & site ("currently not in stock"). Looks like a one-man-show, and--even cheap as I am--one of those cases where only the original may do, even at 115 Euros. I'll be watching the Frog in Fog site anyway.
