    Yeah, the marinara feels great between your toes. :lol: It's an envelope filter pedal... great for getting that Bootsy Collins funky synthy "mwah" sound out of a bass. I'm not much of a pedal guy, but have been considering one of these. Robot Factory Meatwad vs LoveTone Meatball - YouTube

    Got a vv grand and era on the way!

    Gotcha. That's sound logic right there. And I'm more of an Italia guy than a Silver Spur dude myself, so I gladly concur with your metaphor adjustment. :D If the time does come that you decide to sell a Chalice, it will go quickly. I'll definitely buy one of Rob's new attys, but don't...

    As great as Robert's stuff is, aren't those Chalices of yours like the Rolls Royces of RBAs? You don't feel like you've already made the last atty purchases you ever need?

    Anyone here use a Lovetone Meatball pedal?

    Got a vv grand and era on the way!

    With Robert's new RBA on the way, and my relative satisfaction with the A7 functionality-wise for the time being, really the primary reason I was considering an ERA was for the form factor and the aesthetics. And I think the ERA is much better looking than the Hornet, even though it's a...

    Nope, try to add the bottom-feed ERA to your cart and you get a message indicating it's not available... neither torched nor stainless.

    Got a vv grand and era on the way!

    Totally agree. Tried the hemp route... was ok, but the organic cotton just wicks faster, tastes better, takes less time to get rid of its "native" taste, and is way easier to work with. Yes, it scorches more easily, but that's easily avoided by leaving long tails down into the bottom of the...

    Congrats! Who has ERAs available? I missed the apparently 10 minute window when indyvaporshop had them again. It's worse than trying to get Pluid! :lol:

    How many of you use a meter when making wicks for a RBA

    I've only made a few, but I've used one each time... it seems to me to be a sensible safety measure.

    Micro Coil for the RBA on your REO

    Good call. I'll try that if I notice any problems. So far it seems to be wicking pretty well though. I haven't given it a really rough rapid-fire extended chain vaping test yet though. :D

    Micro Coil for the RBA on your REO

    It seems to be doing fine now. Took a little longer than organic cottonball material to lose its "earthy" taste, but seems to be holding up great after 1-2ml. The curve was a little bit of a, "hell, why not" move... figured it was best to try and keep as much of the coil as possible over the...

    Micro Coil for the RBA on your REO

    Excellent. Just also wrapped 11/12 wraps around a paperclip with 30 AWG wire... measured at 1.32Ω. Put through a single strand of hemp cord... still tastes a little "hempy," but it's starting to saturate now. My main concern is whether that single strand will have enough wicking capability.

    Should I be worried about bringing my Reo in carry-on baggage?

    Also, somehow one of the bottles did leak inside the ziploc bag on the way there... I had put a folded paper towel in the ziploc just in case, but it didn't help much. The stink of 555 was all over everything. I just had to rinse off all the bottles at the hotel. That smell was really...

    Should I be worried about bringing my Reo in carry-on baggage?

    I put the REO, batteries, and A7 in separate ziploc bags inside a plastic box with a copy of the REO documentation. Put my juice bottles in another bag for the tray through the checkpoint. As the carry-on bag went through, the agent stopped briefly, looked over at me, and said, "electronic...

    Got it. Sorry for posting a redundant thread. Thanks everyone!

    Should I be worried about bringing my Reo in carry-on baggage?

    Taking a flight tomorrow, and wondering if I should trust the TSA to not hassle me about my Reo. It might look menacing on an X-Ray to those not educated in such things. Starting to think I should just pack my KR808D1 batteries and cartomizers instead... I can't bear the thought of the TSA...

    Got my A7, built my first coil, and it worked!

    Thanks Commie!
