Are you done stocking up?

[BigPappa]

My wife chose the PICO as the go to for her stockpile, and we've run into two problems. One, the displays seem to start acting shaky and die after about a year (happened to two of them). Two, the whole base starts to get loose and starts to look as if it could fall apart (also happened to two after 6 months). I assume I can fix this once I get a hold of a star screwdriver for those unusual screws holding it together.

However, for those of us of the stockpiling frame of mind, I would like to diversify the portfolio of my wife's stockpile. What would be your recommendation for another small, single battery, reliable mod? She thinks my Solos are too big...

lol... I was reading all of that and the first thing that came to mind was "this dude needs a Solo"... and then I got to the last sentence.

I have probably 80 mods or so now, I got 3 of each make/model for just such a reason as you describe... but I got 6 of the Solos because I had a good feeling about them. Most of my mods were all clearance items and I have not tried any of them other than my Revenger X and one of the Solos so I cannot be much help to you... just thought it was funny that I was thinking to recommend the Solo.

The JAC is small and a wonderful mod, just pricey.

Does she use silicone sleeves to help protect her picos? I have never had any of these problems with picos. Not even stripped battery caps like others say.

Might want to look into the Cold Steel 100 mod by EH pro. I haven't had mine for long, but it does seem to be built well and it's small in the hand. Smaller than a Pico overall and more "ergonomic".

However, it's kind of a strange design. Kinda like a box mod and a tube mod had a baby together

It also takes both 18650 and 20700 & 21700 batteries.

It's not a water/dust/shock proof though, like the Aegis line.

Sometimes they have reconditioned inventory for less money.

You might take a look at the vaporesso armour pro. It's a nice small mod. I ran mine for a long time.

Got my $0.25 Innokin Axiom tanks in, all 10 of them. Decided to open one up and make sure there was an RBA in there before shipping them to Dad and surprise surprise... no RBA. Not sure what I'm gonna do about it yet, I just checked and they're clearly listed as having one on E-juice steals where I bought them.

Pretty sure they will refund you the difference and just tell you to keep those.

I ordered a bunch of the kanger coils from them that are supposed to be delivered today but saw on my credit card that they sent through a partial refund which means I'm not getting all of what I ordered. I wish they could get a handle on their inventory instead of just refunding what they over sold. My last order was shorted two items which they refunded me for. If my calculations are correct, I think my coil order is going to be seven boxes short.

I'm having the same Pico screen problem you report and was hoping they would be the backbone of my stash. The next closest mod is the Pico X, which uses a different chipset. Might be worth getting one of those for a trial.

Does anyone here have a Swag II? Is that one worth considering?

These two mods are fantastic, tiny and they are very lightweight! They both work very well, and both are cute, but they weigh a good bit less than the Solos. I love my Solos, but I wish I had bought a few less of them and a few more of the Swag2s and the WYE2s.

I got both on holiday sales but they're both very reasonably priced without the sales. I got the best price on WYE2s from Sourcemore, but I think they might have sold out because now they are listed as a presale item.

I posted about the Swag 2 and the Teslacigs WYE 2 right above this post. I think you should check both of them out.

I happen to know this happened to a couple of people, from what I heard it was difficult to get any reasonable response from ejuicesteals CS/management to have it straighten out . . . Matter of fact, after 3 weeks they are still trying to either get what they ordered or a refund of some kind . . .

Wish Ya' Good Luck . . . "OPTIMISTIC ICON HERE"
(BTW: Let "Us" know what happens . . . )

Personally, kinda of glad I only placed one order with them. . . As I mentioned before, a number of items that were list for sale and ordered all of a sudden they where out of stock (although was told by "Brett" they had a couple more and could now add them to a new order ) . . . Even if the prices are that "Cheap" , I don't want to find out later that a number of items I already paid for are no longer available - nor get charged and then refund over and over again, or pay additional shipping charges for the same items removed from an order if I don't spend over $75 . . . Thankfully, I have decided not to purchase from them again . . . Just Sayin' . . .

I have two pico x's in her stash but havent busted them out yet. The swag looks very similar so I think I'm going to go for that. Thanks @JustWondering1!

 

[bnrkwest]

I got my last China order today. That's it for me and China. I did order a few more Podin coils from US since my rebuild was a bust LOL

 

[440BB]

My ejuicesteals experience got better. After an order for 40 packs of Aspire BVC coils showed up as eight packs, I contacted them and although it took a few emails, they did end up fulfilling the order. Over two orders, only one thing ended up out of stock after I ordered. Unfortunately it was the CKS Junior device, which the pods came in for. Overall I got a number of great deals with a bit of confusion.

I'd probably give them a chance if the deal was really good but might call before I order.

I got the pico x because I can find the fire button with a gloved hand. I'm interested in the swag ii because it has a bigger deck.

 

[hittman]

I got my three Kanger top tanks from central vapor and did end up getting all of the coils from ejuice steals. I’m not sure what the 3.98 refund on my card was for.

 

[fiddleshe]

I finally broke out my Crown II tank. It vapes nicely. Reminds me of my Lemo 2. This is good since I have 808 coils for it. The question is how long will a coil last? That I am about to test.

Because youre pretty.

It might have been from my last order where I didn’t get two tanks I ordered on clearance. If it was because of beauty, I wish my boss would pick up on it and give me a raise.
