Um I still have a gripper and it still works (and 2 extensions).
I've got one, plus a backup. A couple of those long extensions too. They were very handy at one time, light and stealthy when most things weren't.

There'll come a time to purge some of the things I won't use again, paying it forward or selling, but I'll keep my well used Gripper. Maybe someday I can let go of the backup lol.

    I ordered 3 lustros from vapor range. One in pink, one in purple, and one in royal blue. I don't really need them, but I couldn't resist the price of $18 apiece. Also, for the end of times, I bought a mech mod, a Smoktech Magneto 2 in silver. I kinda know how to use a mech mod, but I'll save the details for the day I actually have to use it. That's for when all my regulated mods break and I can't order any more. I only paid $10 plus $5 shipping for the Magneto.

    So my wife found a method to open up a Solo to change it's buttons.

    1. Stand in front of sink
    2. Drop on hard tiled surface
    3. pick up pieces
    4. Give to husband to reassemble
    So much for their vaunted durability... ?

    Ditto. :) From VapeHut? Mine's black. A $15 insurance policy.

    Hmmm? Maybe your wife has something against vaping she hasn't mentioned to you. :)
    You mean Mike's wife LOL. My hubby however....well...

    Lets just say when I walked into the living room and said "Talk me out of a Wolf squonker" tonight he said "Just order it." LOL

    Yes, sorry. Wasn't paying enough attention.
    "It just slipped right out of my hands, honey. Honest. I'll get the tool box for you to fix it; I have to put this hammer back in there anyway."

    He's a keeper. :)

    Yes. I guess that physics that I took in college might come in handy after all. o_O
    Terri contact me in PMs if you decide to try the mech. I am more than willing to try and help you sort it out safely and if push came to shove I am not so far away I couldn't drive there once life is more back to normal. :)

    Offer is open even if it is months or years from now.

    Thanks! I'll keep your offer in mind. Right now it'll go into my stash. It's mainly for insurance purposes. I suspect that mods will be able to be purchased in some manner in the future. Individuals will sell them on the classifieds. Probably the Chinese vendors will continue to sell despite the FDA rules.

    What is weird Is I have dropped mine on concrete a dozen times and no problems at all.
    You know how it goes, cell phones are the same way. My wife has thrown her phone into our tile floor multiple times (HARD) and the only thing that happened was the case flew off... I've dropped a phone also in a case from the couch arm and broke the screen on the same tile.

    (She's fiery ᕦ༼✩ل͜✩༽ᕤ)

    Definitely. The question is what will happen to the parcels when they get to the US. i used to order cigarettes from overseas, including from China. For a while, they arrived fine; got only one letter once saying they were stopped at customs and that i had to go somewhere to pay an import duty or they'd be returned to the shipper. Got every other carton without a problem. Then, they stopped arriving. Several shipments & re-shipments in row; no letters. Maybe seized, maybe stolen... ?
    Ordering vape from overseas might become a big gamble. We'll see.

    I didn't know that was a thing. Who knew.

    Trying that would be my absolute last resort in extreme desperation. Fortunately Given my REOs the odds of needing to do anything of the sort are slim indeed.

    Is anyone using an aspire nautilus x? Just found a package of them I ordered from somewhere bc they were really on sale! I have not tried one....anyone? What are you using them on?
    I use one daily and like it. Only thing I wish is that ohms were lower. I think it comes with 1.5 or 1.6 ohm coils.
