Good catch, with e-packet the total for qty 1 green Armour Pro comes in at under $15 - very good price point.

I only looked because I got their email today. Probably the same one you got yesterday. I didn't spot anything else very interesting in it.

Pico 21700 kit for $37.79 at Eciggity (that's with coupon code TENOFF for 10% off), but only lime green and magenta available.

Never been able to find a sleeve for the Pico 21700 so no covering up a color you don't like with a sleeve lol Tried the Pico 25 mod sleeve on it...no go.

Eciggity's kits don't come with a 21700 battery (some kits do, some don't, there are 2 different kits - the battery being the only difference).

The Ello tank can take the Ijoy EXO-S rba (if you have any of those) with either short or tall glass installed, BUT there's some modding required.

Not much bigger than the original Pico 75W

Can't speak to the longevity of the mod, haven't had it long or used it enough.

Or get something like that Armor Prime, get your feet wet before it becomes a necessity...

If you use android, there's an app called Vape Tool (I bought the Pro version, to support the author) that makes doing what-ifs for different coils pretty easy. I'm an engineer, but find VT much more pleasant to use than Steam Engine. It has a tab for ohms law - plug in a voltage and a resistance and it'll tell you how many watts and amps. The tab I use is the Coils one - a pretty logical page, you step through and at the bottom it tells you the resistance, general recommended power range, and the power you'll have at 3.7v (you can change the 3.7, calculate things for different voltages) .

Good practice is use SE or VT to come up with a coil you want to use, then do a check on a regulated mod or a standalone little resistance checker to make sure you're getting the expected resistance, before firing it up on a mech.
I am on iPhone, I have coil maker and one called ohms law.

At 40 years old I was afraid to drive a stick shift. So I bought a stick shift. Drove one for 12 years lol. I just need to step off that ledge.

Now how about a shopping list?

Wow! Almost the same size. I like jwraps-two of my 75w have been wrapped for a year and look brand new. Color not a deal breaker.

Thanks!!

Not only is it 00:48 here and you are far away. America is so huge I have to stay up until 5am to watch it in Nevada. Lucky I got overcharged for this 5 pawns. I got 4x18490s and a fresh build to see me through

I use Paypal whenever I can. Vaporl takes it and so does MyVaporStore and most of the others I shop at.
Yeah,i know Vaporl does but they are based in China and have a U.S. wharehouse,but i've never seen MyVaporStore take paypal,did they just start taking it?A while back when i ordered from them it was credit card only.

Question about these newer top-fill tanks where you slide back the top cap to fill your tank. Like the NRG, Ello, SKRR, etc.

Has anyone been using these long enough to experience breaking of the sliding mechanism?

I like teh idea and all, an dI have a few, but it just seems to me that the slide mechanism will probably wear over time rendering the tank utterly useless (well maybe some duct tape could get you by lol).

And since all the tanks that I have that have this type of topfill use the chimney as the securement method of keeping the tank together, bottom filling isn't an option. (Meaning, the bottom if the chimney screws into the top of the coil or RBA and that's what keeps the tank together).

This is why I prefer bottom fill tanks. No extra mechanisms.

I love top slide fill tanks, but for longevity I think bottom fill may last longer too, time will tell :)

If you keep twisting after the tank is open the top will unscrew, then you can change the gasket or the hole top!

But that means I'd have to stock up on sliding top caps and their parts. :-x

Not going that route. I'd rather look for more bottom fill tanks that I already own a bajillion parts for, TBH. But that's hard to do. Most of the places that still sell them aren't selling them for cheap.

    I prefer the top fill tanks that use the 1/8 turn and the top comes off like geekvape used on most of theirs. I’ve been using four of the original Zeus rtas since the were released and haven’t had to replace a top cap or gasket yet. I did however buy extra top caps since it’s my favorite tank. Several of the ones I bought recently do have the slide but most are going into storage for later so I’m not worried about them breaking. I have enough tanks for one a month for many years.

    I went back and checked. I had to use my CC at MVS. I like Paypal and use it when the vendor accepts it.
