We. Are finally getting some spring weather. Today :). Sunny. AF. & 12 degrees. C Quite the contrast from Monday when it was. Blowing snow. & well below. Zero!

I don’t mind the VA spade theme but I like. Gingers Boxer theme. Better :)

My Fuchai Squonk battery tightness kind of bothered me. I'm using a Samsung 40T in it. So last night I added a thin magnetic disc to the negative end of the cell, shows a big difference on the battery icon voltage drop when fired. I considered adding a blob of silver solder to the cell's positive end but decided to just continue to use the disc instead. Not that it really matters but the cell cost more than the mod by a doller or two.

Maybe you can use some thing a little more conductive as a spacer? Like a copper disk? Mite lessen the voltage drop?
I thought about such but voltage drop is quite acceptable now.

I might have understood it wrong, but I thought the magnet disc decreased the voltage drop drastically.

Those Heatvape Invader Mini used to grab those 18650 not so tight. And sometimes setting the mod on the table would cause them to lose connection temporary and thus turn off the mod. So I had taken a dime and a variable power supply and ran 50 amps through a dime to test if a dime could handle it. And a dime could and it didn't heat up. Then I used a dime between the negative side of the 18650 and the screw cap. Then the problem disappeared. :D

Ran the Boxer theme for a bit, but I've been hooked on the VA theme. I usually run Jason Villamills Enhanced Default theme.

I wouldn't know as I don't have that theme. But I absolutely love Frank's Theme.
I just pulled a few of those down, nice looking theme. Simple navigation is a key for me with no scrolling/page flipping, so I'll put it on and check it out. :thumbs:

Wow $600 off a nicely spect Macbook Pro! That is one heck of a deal!

I know Bill posted this sarcastically! But this is way more of a discount than usual :)
All you have to do is check the prices of used ones on Ebay & you'l see these things hold there value Excellently! Most Apple products do :) Try & buy a used iPhone Xr, you'l see what I mean :)
