What comments towards me bro? I haven't been on here for a couple days but I skimmed back and see nothing. Tom's never been mean to me?or rude? Tom and o are tight. I consider tom a good friend to be honest man.

I'll keep my opinions to myself on this whole rogue deal but mostly I just don't care about the drama. I'm loyal to Rob for my mods and Tom for my attys. Tom does much better atty work than I've ever seen rob do.as for mods I have no interest in regulated squonking as I hate regulated mods...my Reos are the perfect mod for me but I know there's a lot more stuff out there that tickles others fanciez. That's a good thing. We're not all vaping the same thing. Vaping is beautiful man.

All this just to say I'm not arguing with anyone or being negative. But you made a comment about tom losing your business because of his comments towards me? That,I just wanna say,shouldn't be a reason...Tom is nothing but good to sloth.ifreakin love tom and dare I say he loves sloth? :)

I love all of you btw :)

Tim, You hit the nail dead on the head my brother! The beauty of vaping in a nutshell right there. There's something in it for everyone. What's all good for one doesn't necessarily mean it's all good for others and there are a sea of choices in for which one can get their groove on. What ever blows yer skirt up!

Slothworldly advice? :laugh:

I am also appreciative of Tom speaking his mind. Would much rather deal with that than having to deal with the feeble attempts of someone blowing smoke up our collective back sides.
Vape on brothers and sisters! :toast:

Hey Tom! Is there any chance you'll wire your dual 18650 mod in series? It would great to have the extra power and the ability to build large coils.

Tom, I implore you: if you do this, please make it a point-of-purchase user-selectable option. I don't think I can handle 8 volts on my usual slacker 0.5 ohm build. My batteries can (barely), but I can't.

Is this the awful comment tom made toward me? LOL I hope not. This is taken as sage advice I will never touch an apollo.remember guys - tom cares about us. He's also a blunt dude which I like and respect. I take this as him saying, sloth,this ain't up your alley man. Cause he knows I dislike funky builds :) I do.advice taken.

Eta if the comments towards sloth were about the previous REM dealii...Tom was right there was no reason for my unquenchable negativity earlier in this thread. I am appreciative of him letting me know it went too far. Changed the game man :) for the better :)

Again I love all of you and Tom is my holy brother. Just like rob is. Just like clark is.

I absolutely love thst all my vape stuff comes from people I can call friends

Perhaps the fella didn't realize how big a Sloth fan I am. My comment was never meant to be mean spirited. I will always tell you the truth and the WHOLE truth, at some point you may cry, at some point you may not like me, but at both times you will be well informed. Perhaps I'm a little (maybe even a lot) blunt, but I prefer to live an a world without illusions and double talk, and mama always said treat others as you wish to be treated. If I'm screwing up and you know a better way I would prefer you say "hey dummy try this way instead". In regards to the Apollo; it's a great atty but it's not for everyone exactly as Hildecat said to me BEFORE I bought it, I took the leap, I rolled the dice, I don't blame him in the least; actually I applaud him for opening my eyes to the Apollo.

The dual 18650 mech will be a parallel box, output 3.7-4.2v. You could Jerry rig it with a piece of wire, 1 terminal and an isolator to make it series but IMO that would be sketchy. This box is solid. If you wish to use your standard build it will work fine, just a lot longer. Or you could drop your impedance down into the teens .10-.20 range and be fine. I haven't load tested it yet but the contacts and bus bars are huge.

The Apollo just seems like a PITA to build IMO. Then again, I'm not Mr. Adventurous Build I'm more like you Chowder. I have a go-to build that I use in just about all my attys and it works for me. I'm sure some people can just breeze through building on the Apollo and that's great. I think I'd struggle a bit so I've avoided it. I do like how it looks and I'm sure it's a nice vape as well.

Tom: will the "Dual 18650 CAM Mech Squonker" require button top batteries?
No... I don't use button tops since my orbtronic sx30 failures. Please don't buy sx30s folks. I have cycled through a lot of batteries in my time here and all but the sx30s have done well, vtc4s, vtc5s, mxjo, and 25Rs have all performed well. I bought a pair of sx30s and within 2 weeks of use the would barely hold a charge, within a month one failed altogether. I threw both of them away.

Well said, perhaps a bit more eloquently than I stated. I'm happy with it but I won't be carrying them.

I just saw $300+ getting pulled from my bank account. REALLY looking forward to the Hobo V3 as I am a big fan of Hobo - one of the most quality guys in this vape game (right behing CH of course)

Tom's are 14 X 1.25 I think. I don't like them that tight though, so I switched it up. Think that 13 X 1.2 are the ones I use. Could have it slightly backwards here...ummm I'm no help LOL
