I’m writing this to beseech you Steve…Please bring to fruition the V2 in the timeliest manner possible. At this time of love and sharing, open your heart and do the right thing. Let me share with you the story of a poor lost soul whom I have recently had the pleasure to meet. I won’t give his/her real name but let us call him/her…..HeyGrawk.
HeyGrawk was a happy vaper with his/her 510 until one day, he/she heard of the 5 volt masterpiece called the Prodigy. Having not the coin for such a masterpiece, HeyGrawk built him/herself a device which could best be described as gawky and somewhat pathetic distant cousin of the Prodigy. The one you begrudgingly talk to at family functions but would avoid with all fervor if you happened upon them in public. Now HeyGrawk happily vaped this 5 volt monstrosity gleefully while saving his/her pennies in hopes of someday being able to purchase a shiny new Prodigy. When that day finally came, HeyGrawk heard of the V2 which was soon to be released. Not wanting to squander his/her money on the V1 HeyGrawk patiently waited. As the days slipped by that gawky/pathetic cousin began to slowly degrade. First a switch went bad. No problem. New switches are easy enough. Then a melted 7805. Again. A little solder and good as new. But alas. Steadily, that poor gawky distant relative continued a downward spiral of broken switches, melted parts and wiring, and general deterioration. It would appear that now, near the end, there may be no hope left for the little fella. It would seem almost inevitable that this ugly little mod, no matter how steadfast in its resolve to provide steady vapor to its owner, is destined to go unto that place where all mods, no matter how good (or bad) ultimately reside; the Valhalla of e-cigs.
Steve, the poor little guy may not make it to Christmas. We’re doing all we can for him. New wiring. A stockpile of 7805’s. A mainline IV drip of fresh solder. But I beg you. Please. If you’ve any Christmas spirit in your heart, think of the ones in need. Think of the poor pathetic cousins of the vaping world. Think of GreyHawk….errr….HeyGrawk.

Heyhawk needs you help Steve, or we might have to resort to singing this:

watch


P.S. Brother-in-law, I have a new DSE-601 collecting dust if you want it.

I appreciate it. I should be able to get through with the spare 3.7V batt's I have in back-up and the parts I have left for the mod. I was really just trying to get Steve to feel guilty.

Curtis,

Why yes...yes I am :D
My wife says he's my twin. She just begs me not to sing. He's got me beat on that...ha ha

Nice, Not everyone get's to see their doppleganger. :) I think he's got a lot of us beat on the singing. I just wish they didn't use that song on the Geico Caveman commercial. I hate the Geico cavemen.
