We crashed FT :) But they're back now.

Bought 2 x HCigar VT Inbox V3 75W DNA mods and 2 x SXK Haku Riviera RDTA. This should set me for life. Now if they would just ship the bubble tanks I want to try on the Silverplay.
Which Silverplay? I need extra glass for my mtl ones (the single coil with the “cage” for the wicks). I really need extra glass for them as they’re a chunk of my rta stash.

FT order placed... a ton of DTs and oodles of spare glass for 3 different RTAs/RDTAs. I’ve only broken one tank (twice!! :blush: without even dropping it), but I bet if I don’t have spares, I’ll break one a week when they’re discontinued :rolleyes:
I did order a second Squid Industries detonator, and their rta pod/aio from Vapor Range. Found a code online and got both for $85!

Love everything about the SilverPlay (24mm version) — except want more capacity. Bet I bought five, maybe more. And now hoping to expand their capacity to 3.5ml+. Can't find where anyone has done before; even VaporDna was clueless. Waiting on glass for a third round of testing. Looks promising (but so did prior tests). And likely the last option available at present. Will let you know.

Thank you! I’m pinning my hopes on you finding a match. It would be great to find a suitable backup, ESPECIALLY bubble!! Bigger capacity would be fantastic :)

    I thought about making an order from geekvape.com for parts and pieces but I’m not. I’m ready to put the credit card away. Between Christmas and vape stocking I’m just done with shopping.

    I don't think I'm seeing a lot of the items that I had in my cart at Geekvape a couple months ago. Will take another thorough look before I decide not to order anything.

    I just want to be done with this madness!

    Well this sucks. Tried placing an order for juice from Red Star Vape to MA and was blocked from purchasing.

    So I put a shipping address of New Jersey and it still blocked me!

    Is it now based on credit card address of record? If so this is going to be a big problem for A LOT of people.

    I can have a family member order it for me with their credit card but not everyone can do this.

    I hope this isn’t what stores are going to do as we move forward especially for people in states w flavor bans. I was counting on ordering my own stuff and shipping out of state.

    I guess I just need to get back to mixing myself. I’m feeling good enough now to do a couple at a time.

    I have a halfway decent small scale, from nic measurement days years ago, plus a couple pound scale that's also pretty accurate.

    Weigh a test sample in a graduated beaker, to get the base density

    Weigh a full liter bottle

    Weigh the bottle after decanting

    The change in weight of the liter bottle divided by the density will be hoe many ml you have decanted.

    FT:
    Too bad they no longer carry the brass Armor Prime, but I may scoop up one more black.

    50m of my preferred twisted 26 kanthal

    some spare tank glass

    Some 2 packs of kuro koiler jig tools, in 2/2.5/3 mm sizes. I like my coil master v4, except it is not great if you have to make a counter clockwise coil (the top part tries to unscrew). The KK jigs are fixed size, should work equally well for cw and ccw.

    (If anyone wants a coilmaster v4, 8vape has them for $6)

    you must wrap your coils really tight. I use the Geekvape coil tool counterclockwise and never had a problem. I just make sure the jig is tightened good in the handle.

    I remembered something I wanted from FT. Those tweezers that also act as pliers to open hard to open tanks.https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10050535/9692670-coil-father-plastic-ceramic-tweezers-for-e

    I use this tank tool thing almost every day especially when wicking if I don’t want to get the kit out with the tweezers. It’s perfect to dry burn and squeeze to coils to. I bought about ten of them at one point. There are a couple of other similar ones but they’ve broken everytime after some use or the ones w screws would strip. These ones are perfect for me and pretty cheap. I was getting mine on eBay but no more.

    Got my Geekvape order in, took a while to get it to $100 for free shipping. Ended up getting another Zeus Single Coil RTA. All that trouble, put in the order, and forgot the coupon. Don't even care anymore, just hope they send the pre-order stuff soon so I can be done!

    The MA attorney general is suing some out of state online sellers. I'd like to know how that works with a civil matter, extradition is only for crimes. Is she going to try to sue offshore sellers like FT? Is FT shipping to MA?

    All the pain seems to be expressed by the shop owners. There are vastly more MA consumers and we hear almost nothing from them which I suppose is predictable since most of them are now criminals.

    Well the vapsourcing order finally came in. The one I called to ask about after it hadn't shipped in a month and they suddenly said oh it will ship tomorrow we will send the tracking numbers. Well they NEVER sent the tracking numbers. It came today DHL. Yep I think I was right caught them in an oopsie and they killed themselves to fix it.

    2 purple Pico squonkers (squeeze?) and 20 replacement bottles for them in my little purple kitty paws. I like these though they are a LOT heavier than I expected for something so tiny.

    My S/H was $12.58 for 3 Solo battery caps, 10 total replacement screens for the Solos and Minis, 6 sets of replacement buttons for the Minis & the Solos, 2 packages of o-ring replacements for the Cerberus, 4 of the USB covers for the Aegis Mini. Nothing was heavy at all though. I'm thinking some of the S/H was for the items that'll be shipped later that were Pre-Order, but IDK know for sure.

    ETA: I've never broken a screen or any other part on any mod, but...I figure it's better to have extras, than not. If I only had 1 or 2 of the Minis and Solos...I likely wouldn't have ordered as many of those parts as spares. But, I help other local people out at times, too, that I've gotten started with vaping.
