    Vinking Vapor E-Juice

    It depends on how busy they are. I placed my first order late on a Friday night and it got from CA to NJ by Monday afternoon. My second order was placed shortly after they re-opened (their CC processor bailed on them and they were shut down for a couple weeks setting up a new account), and...

    Opening brand new kr808 cartomizers

    I've opened up brand new cartos that were nearly dry. It sucks, but it does happen some times. I refill mine anyway, so it's not that big a deal. Just rinse it out and fill it up with fresh juice and write off the ~1ml that should have been in there as a loss.

    Where Can I Get A......? Assembled Box Mod Cheap?

    Wags makes 14500 and 10440 box mods with recessed atty connectors, which shortens the overall length of the device a bit. Also, these mods come with a battery and charger, so they're quite a bit cheaper than many of the other offerings if you don't have those already.

    New! Name the feedback thread

    Still like "The Doucheatorium", but "Stinkers" is a nice compromise.

    replace a dse 905

    It's a bit pricier, but the Chuck is pretty much indestructible.

    Pay it forward - USA - please read 1st post for rules and guidelines

    ***Also doesn't count*** Don't forget that even if you don't have anything on hand to offer, a lot of online shops offer gift cards. They usually just email you a code, which you can pass along without having to pay to ship anything.

    Future PV "The Pulse"

    Some people don't know why anyone would want to listen to digitally compressed music on a tiny device, but that doesn't mean the majority of us non-luddites don't like our ipods. A phonograph is much simpler and you can make one yourself out of construction paper and a pin if you want, but...

    Where Can I Get A......? Stickers to put on my carts and cartos????

    I've been printing my own carto labels with a label maker. The heavy-duty vinyl label tape works well and isn't bothered by the juice. The guy who runs Viking Vapor said he's working on getting carto labels made up to sell along with his juice, though it doesn't look like they're available yet.

    Name for the negative feedback thread

    Is "The Doucheatorium" too risque?

    Are you a pearlist?

    Pretty much all religions are terrified of atheists. For them, not believing in any god is much worse than believing in the "wrong" god. For theists of all varieties, there's sort of a camaraderie of absurdity that they share with each other. A kind of social contract that says "I won't point...

    Consistent Flavors

    It's best to ask the vendors themselves. Some (most?) will tweak their recipes based on feedback from their customers. These tweaks don't always work out as well as the originals. If you don't like the new version, then you need to let them know.

    Bartelby..anyone try it?

    I have a Bart and I use it as my primary PV. It's a great device. The USB charging and PT functionality are just too useful for me to use anything else. For what you get, you just can't beat the price either. I only wish Cybervex made a 18650 mod like this.

    Pay it forward - USA - please read 1st post for rules and guidelines

    Can't let this thread die here. I'll take that offer. And I'll offer one 510 PCC. Black, in like-new condition. Works with standard length automatic and manual batteries. Only used a couple times.

    An Absurd Experiment - The Digital Boy

    It has a lot of potential uses. If you were going to mass-produce a PWM adjustable mod with a machine-soldered PCB, this would be a good part to consider using. For a one-off mod made by hand, the QFN package just makes it very difficult to work with. If you're not familiar with the format...

    Interesting Parts

    It's probably using a switching DC converter. Almost every power adapter uses them these days because they're very efficient. They are not nearly as simple to make as a linear regulator though, and I don't think there are any single-component switching regulators out there (at least not that...

    Interesting Parts

    I wouldn't recommend using that regulator for a 12v PT. Any voltage above 5v is wasted as heat, and with a 12v source, that's a lot of heat to reject. You'd need a hefty heat sink to keep the chip from frying.

    An Absurd Experiment - The Digital Boy

    For my project or something that you're working on? It wouldn't be useful for me. It could be made to work in another project, but it does require quite a few external components, and a 3.5mm QFN package is not exactly easy to work with.

    An Absurd Experiment - The Digital Boy

    OK, hopefully I've got the right part on order now. Apparently the key was looking for a "logic-level" MOSFET. Those guys at the Arduino forum are going to be really sick of my dumb questions before this is finished.

    Complaint Dept?

    It's not a warning. There's just a couple of stickies at the top of the supplier's subforum asking them to get in contact with the complaint department and supplier department.
