I love the colors.....but I'd also like to have a batt and drip tip in chocolate brown or British tan. Am I weird or what?
Yes.
But Chocolate Brown is better. 
I have a scrap of espresso brown leather that might look good wrapped around a batt...whatcha think? Should I try it?
I was working on a skin too, for DM (dang, where the heck is that guy?), of brown floral embossed leather, but just couldn't get the artwork to work with his equipment. Bummer...

Good morning Imagine (and everyone) ,
Saw this notice on my Amazon seller page yesterday...then got another from ecommerce bytes newsletter. It doesn't effect sales in the USA, but was wondering if this is going to effect e-cig battery sales internationally...or are ecig batteries not effected by this ban?
Tried searching the forums a bit around here but didn't see anything....
Here's from Amazon:
USPS Prohibits International Shipment of Lithium batteries Starting May 16
May 15, 2012
Starting May 16, 2012, the United States Postal Service (USPS) will prohibit all international air shipments of lithium batteries and products containing lithium batteries, including primary lithium metal or lithium alloy (nonrechargeable) cells and batteries or secondary lithium-ion cells and batteries (rechargeable). Shipments with lithium batteries also will be prohibited to and from APO, FPO, and DPO locations. These restrictions do not apply to shipments within the United States and its territories.
Items that often use lithium power include, but are not limited to: Kindle devices, watches, tablets, video cameras, cameras, GPS devices, MP3 players, smartphones, laptops, portable DVD players, and power drills.....
USPS expects to lift this restriction in early 2013. For more information about the restriction, please visit DMM Revision: Mailings of Lithium Batteries
And then Ecommerce (http://www.auctionbytes.com/cab/abn/y12/m05/i15/s01):
Many online sellers may be surprised to learn that the USPS is banning overseas mailings of electronics that contain lithium batteries. Fast Company broke the news in a piece focusing on how the new policy would negatively impact U.S. troops serving abroad.
"American firms with customers outside the country's borders or people with loved ones serving overseas will have to use private parcel services at higher prices," Fast Company wrote on May 10th. "The news is a headache for USPS employees, military families, and electronic manufacturers and resellers ... but a boon for private delivery firms like UPS, DHL, and FedEx."
The USPS said effective May 16, 2012 and through January 2013, the Postal Service would not accept packages containing lithium batteries and electronic devices containing lithium batteries addressed to international destinations. This includes mail destined to, or from, military destinations including APO (Army Post Office), FPO (Fleet Post Office) and DPO (Diplomatic Post Office) locations.
Note that the change will not apply to packages mailed within the United States on domestic commercial air or ground transportation.

I am not sure at the moment but I will keep you guys posted... we may be adding another postal carrier....
Lithium huh?
Baptize them as Copper Manganese, or Vanadium pentoxide, or Stardust oxide, or batteries with little aliens inside producing power or anything else.

We are talking about a few stupid people with thousands of orders. Even if you ship hand grenades or anthrax no one will notice it if you write the words "adaptor, electronic part, dildo, sample etc etc"
Last time i did an order i have transfered fuses for my fireworks (a few KG's of EXPLOSIVES) and no one didn't even care lol.
That is the reality, the Chinese will do anything to sell, that is even put a second shrink wrap over the battery to state something else.
Oh that reminds me energizer 5 years a go, i'm not sure if that is valid these days.
For some reason the chinese could not ship batteries directly to USA, energizer are made in the USA right?
Energizer used a plant here in Greece (Orbit Germanos factory), they were getting nude batteries from China and putting on them the energizer shrink wrap with the logo and made in the USA statement and shipping them to the states.
US citizens used batteries PROUDLY made in the USA LOL
There is ALWAYS a way to do anything.

Is there any chance you will start carrying flanged XL cartos for tanks? Or maybe a carto tank of your own.
It is a real pain trying to find flanged 808 cartos that are the right ohms for my batts.

Yes, but they also have a flange on the bottom to keep them from pulling through the tank.
Like this
But a full SI tank kit would be great!
Did the typos prompt you to ask?Hey Imagine . . .

I was just wondering the same thing...

Nah, I'm from the same Grammar Police Academy that she attended! I PM'd her, but haven't heard back yet.
Lord, I pray that nothing's happened to her Maggie-cat . . .
I got a "like" from her today. I think she's just quietly chillin'.

Yes, she and Maggie are both alive and well.
Just "chillin'," as you said. 
Hi, sorry - I hadn't read this thread for a few days so didn't see that anyone was missing me. I'm fine, just lurking & chillin and cringing at typos Decided I really didn't have anything to add the the conversations right now - just impatiently waiting for the new battery colors which were due in "about a month" which was last week.
