Evolv-ing Thread

Yeah..... BUT.......

I still favor my 5000mAh DNA75 by a long shot. It lasts me 4-5 days, and I have found it to be the mod I instinctively grab.

We all have different priorities. I am willing to accept a little more bulk (ie ERM+ vs ERM) in exchange for KNOWING my mod wont die on me throughout my work day, and that I wont "have" to worry about swapping batteries.

While I've always lean towards a small mod I can stick in my pocket, that is pretty damn impressive and now has me rethinking. Not that it's a big issue I am curious, assuming you use the board to recharge, how long does it take to recharge it at 1 amp?

Theory says: 5000mAh x 3.7v = 18.5 Wh. 5v x 1a = 5Wh. So, your looking at 3.7 hours.

Not really sure. I just plug it in before I go to bed and it is ready when I wake up.

Pay attention to the (not to be mentioned) Discussion thread!

For all of you who have ever complained about how slow FT shipping is, know this there is always some one who gets their stuff slower than You!
Mike & I had 2 packages leave Hong Kong same day, He has had his for over a week.
Whilst I still wait 13 days now since last track said it entered the country.
Worst thing my item don't track here in Canada, So I'm completely in the dark
I did save over 40$ by going with FT, So I'm not really complaining, Just letting you all know how long it can take

That's the thing that puts me off about FT, the slow shipping. I guess I'm spoiled by Prime and the US vendors I've ordered from.

I did save over 40$ 100% they will be Authentic!
That much of a saving on a some thing that would have cost a little over 100$ just can't be ignored IMO

 

[EvlSmrk]

Am I the only one who uses a Velocity RDA (authentic) on their ERM+'eses?

No. Mine is currently setup with a quad coil using 26g Nichrome, 2.5mm ID, 11/10 wraps. Take a moment to ramp up at 60W, but hits hard.

Wow you actually do post once in awhile. I thought you only did likes.

 

[fishwater]

Bahahaha, I do post but I've been tied up at home getting my new to me milling machine working & traveling for work. Once I get home & can get some time in the shop I have some delrin I'll be playing with for my next mod.

Envious, I am.....

I just decided to go for it & find a "small" benchtop mill but ended up with this 700lb monster instead, no one ever accused me of going half way in! It's a little overkill for milling little plastic squonk boxes but what the hell....

 

[mikepetro]

Uh-oh, another "squonker" type. Thats ok, this neighborhood has already been gentrifed!

That thing would be perfect for milling my ERM+ enclosures!!!!

 

[fishwater]

Yep, that's me, one of those bottom feeder types.....I'll try not to convert anyone....There's room for all of us

GDEAL and DrunkJ already gave it their best shot, still prefer my tanks.

Whatever keeps the nico-demon at bay........

Well on the bright side I just received my FT order today (sorry steamer) ordered on the 27 of march shipped on the 7th. Now awaiting a reply from Evolv regarding my dead board

PS I'm liking this supreme so far put dual ni claptons in it.

I know how you feel Steamer, I've waited at least a month more then a times for stuff to come on the slow boat from China. A couple times I had forgotten I ever ordered a couple things and that was from Amazon. The longest I waited was six weeks for an pre-order item from focal, I've heard they have gotten better since. The cheap prices do take the sting out of it once they finally get here and knock on wood I never had something that I had to return, there I think I've been lucky.
