In the tradition of great Australian bush poets, one of our favourite comedians released this on the national broadcaster

p.s. Dunny Roll is Aussie for Toilet Paper, the Dunny, being the toilet



I was at the supermarket today and not only had the .......s cleared the TP aisle (still dont understand how TP is supposed to help) bit theyd also cleared the bread aisle too. I blame America, and those nutty doomsday prepper shows they replay here for this. Stop exporting your paranoia, if you please. This nuttiness has never happened in Australia in all my 49 years until now...

Well is it a baby poop green or an army green? Cause other than that I would be happy with the color.

It's just one or two notches down from traffic safety vest green. I really like it tho. I'm glad I bought more than one. I think it's my best purchase of the last 2 months stock-up binge. I'm getting sleeves, not to hide the color, but because I don't fully trust the battery door to stay closed.

    Yes, I guess lime would be a good word. I don't regret buying it but it's hard to tell what something really looks like sometimes in a picture. It's just a back up since I already have a dark blue one. I just have a hard time passing up sales on mods that I know that I like and are super cheap.

    Nothing wrong with that!

    Three are mnay images of the green mod on the net, most of which appear to try to make it look more appealing than it is.

    This is a widely used vaporesso marketing graphic (a smokey, metallic lime green)...

    After May 12 2020 there won't be any products to sell online.

    Pickings are slim right now. I've ordered several Pico 75w mods for backup and received them recently, but now it's hard to find anything but Pink. Maybe cooler heads will eventually prevail.

    It's really strange that you can buy a carton of smokes just about anywhere. Tax receipts from big tobacco rule in the market.

    The first pic isn't a bad color at all but you're right that it looks more like the second one.

    Just in case you think you may want to buy a few more Picos, the Pico 25 (85W) is only slightly larger than the original Pico 75W and might be easier to find. Actually very hard to feel the difference in size in the hand (for me at least).

    Dimensions without battery cap (which is the same cap)...
    Pico 75W - 63.7mm x 45mm x 23mm
    Pico 25 (85W) - 63.3mm x 48mm x 25mm

    The most notable differences are...
    • the casing design,
    • the screen is a tad brighter on the Pico 25 with bigger font on the wattage,
    • the fire button is a tad larger on the Pico 25 and
    • the Pico 25 takes up to 25mm tanks.

    The settings, menus and operation are exactly the same.

    Also, the Vaporesso Swag (v1) (a 22mm mod) is a good alternative to the Pico 75W and can be found for cheaper than the Pico 75W most of the time (but usually in a kit with the NRG SE tank). Feels smaller in the hand to me, even though it's slightly bigger. 62.5mm x 47.75mm x 24.75mm (without battery cap).

    I just ordered two Vaporesso Revenge Mini's from EightVape. Picos seem to be selling out all over and the Vaporesso seems to be solid. Built in battery is a downer, but the ones I have that use internal batteries have stood the test of time when used intermittently.

    Good info. I'll continue to look around.

    I agree. If it really were that color then it probably would never have been dumped on clearance for $10 :lol:
    That color showed up on clearance at two other Chinese sites just before this deal, for a couple dollars more. It's as if Vaporesso or a distributor auctioned them off. I got a pair as backups for the two brushed silver that Eightvape had for $20 a while back.

    The color makes me think of Easter Eggs. The fire bar and Omni board v4 are a combination that I can enjoy in most any color. Pink or yellow would have me sanding it a bit...

    Makes you wonder why these manufacturers even bother pumping out mods with certain colors. I can understand pink, but florescent green? With the amount of laughs that color generates, i doubt there is a big enough market to justify it (but what do I know).

    Yeah, I have one. But I only paid $15 for it back in 2015-ish and I found sleeves for it, so :p

    I have a friend who always bought Pink Bic lighters. None of the guys he worked with would walk off with them if he left them in plain sight at his workstation. :)

    I guess it was meant to be that I got a second bright green mod to go with my Asmodus Colossal. Two Armour Pros, one Colossal, forty bucks. I might as well get an Eleaf Ello tank in green too. None would match of course but the vape would be good.

    These might be just ugly enough for the bar then!
