Just got some vapemail today.

MBV - More Stingray mods, a Swag I kit & some Hohm Tech battery cases.
Amazon - More EXO-S RBAs

I love those stingray mechs. This makes 4 for me now (maybe $10 total after average out the shipping costs :thumb:). Voltage drop is only 0.1v on >1 ohms, as opposed to all my other tube mechs (all SS), which are about 0.3-0.4v! I don't know if this is due to the design, the parts, the copper or all of the above but it's nice to have that low of a voltage drop on a mech. The stingray has it's downsides, mainly the fire switch. The switch can be adjusted to work a little better - but I can see it being dangerous to a degree, too, if you're not careful. Someday I'll post my method on making the fire switch easier to use, but needs more time/testing.

And those Hohm Tech battery cases...FRIGGIN' NICE - they hold 21700 batts with no issues! (But not 26650s, sorry) They fit very securely yet slip in/out easily. The case seems very well made - tough, stitched (not just glued), industrial-grade velcro and the clip seems very strong and sturdy...

Plenty of velcro left to close properly & securely with the 21700...

Also, MBV packages their stuff way better than any other retailer (vape or otherwise) I've purchased from. This is my second order. Like items were bundled and neatly taped in bubble wrap and then "air pillows" to boot. Impressive. And shipping is ultra fast. I wanna order more stuff from them just for the pleasure :D

Wow, been a while since I was in this thread...

I stocked up plenty on nicotine and rebuildable tanks back when this thread was young. Along with some mech mods (which I hope never to use) and regulated mods. But now that I'm using the Zenith tank, I'm going to need to stock up on coils, unless I get the nerve to start building on the aforementioned tanks. Also, mods. I purchased from someone here a little Pico a while back, and I fell in love with it. Will have to track down more and see how many I can afford.

I have 3 Provari mods I've never used, and now I see I might be out of luck on batteries for them. :/ This vaping tech moves too fast for me. I'd be vaping on gear from my early years here if it was still available, lol.

Took a quick look at the clearance section. Couple RBAs that jumped out at me that some might be able to use (coupon code CVDCNY30 works on clearance

SMOK TFV4 RBA Dual Coil (1-pack)


SMOK TFV4 RBA Single Coil (1-pack)

Also some drop-in coils on clearance that might interest some. Take a look there. Shipping is a flat $6 with no free shipping as far as I can tell.

I always get free shipping there. In fact just got free shipping two days ago. Not sure what the amount needed to purchase is to get there.

oops disregard. I was thinking of another place that I frequent.

You can still get button top batteries, just not the AW ones.

They sell Picos on FT for about $25. Not sure if that's a good idea right now. You see them for the same price or a little more in the US sometimes. Someone will probably come along and post you a link soon.

CASAA Update E-Mail:
"Today, the House of Representatives voted to move forward (210 yea - 200 nay) with considering HR 2339 and allowing for 90 minutes of debate prior to a vote. There is now bi-partisan opposition to this bill.

CASAA has learned that the language from HR 4742 (tax parity across all tobacco products--linked below) is now included in HR 2339. This new language would tax vapor products at a much higher rate than the federal tax on cigarettes.

The 90 minutes of debate and a vote on HR 2339 is expected to begin around 9:00 AM, Friday, February 28."

Apparently the bill has language banning menthol cigarettes that is pulling away some support.

The reference to HR 4742 is, I believe, relative to that really high tax we've chatted about.

Back to stocking...

    I bought one of the exo-s rba five packs that someone linked on amazon a few days ago. They are the real deal. I have to wonder if someone bought a bunch from 8vape and is reselling them.

    I thought the same thing. So which tanks do those go in again? :facepalm: I can’t keep up.

    I know for sure it fits the Cerberus and screwed one into a dominator and it fits but I haven’t tried vaping it.

    NRG too. That's why I bought some nrg tanks lol... I bought the rbas first because of the price, then I needed something to put them in. Kinda backwards. Lmao

    So since the gt coils fit all these tanks, does it make sense that the exo-s will fit any tank that takes the gt coils?

    I dunno... because the hellbeast rba only works on some... and at least 1 needs different glass.... @markfm is the resident expert on that.

    No, the exo rba is wider than a stock bb-compatible head.

    Exo s won't, for example, fit the nrg se, IIRC.

    The Marvec "Hellbeast" rba has the widest compatibility that I know of, is the smallest form factor.

    I just got done quickly searching this thread the best I could and somewhat the forum in general and Google and this is what I've found is a possible (but not exhaustive) list of tanks the exo-s rba fits in. The ones in red I know for sure as I have the tanks. The ones in blue are mentioned to fit by others in this thread. The rest I have seen elsewhere.
    • iJoy EXO-X
    • iJoy EXO-S (this is the tank it was originally made for, I have it)
    • Advken Dominator
    • Vaporesso NRG (but not NRG SE)
    • Vaporesso SKRR
    • Vaporesso SKRR-S (not sure about SKRR-S Mini)
    • Geekvape Cerberus
    • OBS Draco
    • Eleaf Ello (regular Ello) - Fits but needs small modification to RBA to actually work (see my post here) (looking at pics of the inside of the Ello Duro, Ello Vate & Ello T (mainly on fasttech) this same modification might work for those tanks too, but I can't verify it).

    Just a quick list. I'm all EXO'd-out now. :blink:
