:D :D I'll have to get creative and see if I can incorporate nipples into the dance, but I'm not buying a 4nine now.

If you really want a Frankenstein type mod, let me know and I can tell you where I got it, or just send you this one. I don't use it often, 3D's are a pain to build on and fill.

Yes, I know mr.Nonine :lol: .. its seems the 3D hype was rather short lived, but I was always intrigued by the auto dripping concept. I don't drip often because I find it annoying to re-drip .. which is interesting because I started vaping as a dripper.

So tell me where you got the Frankenstein 3D ...

The problem with it is that the fill hole is too small and inconveniently placed. There are workarounds, namely removing the restriction screw, but then you have to be careful not to tip it over.

Got it from angelcigs, but I'm not kidding, you can have mine if you want it. It will give me an excuse to get something else, it will just take me a few days to ship it out.

Now I have another dilemma, the other place responded and said they will send me a new Paps top cap with my next order. Now I have to order something. Darn ;)

Oh .. that place .. Eww, sorry I asked (not your fault though). FYI, that place is an "unmentionable" around here :glare: The back story can be found somewhere in this monster thread. I am intrigued by this Astro/Chi You only 3D though, and I do own both mods .. I will pm you :)

Now your bad top cap ... the good news is there is plenty of stuff at the other place to pick up, so choosing something shouldn't be too hard, but ... I don't like it when a vendor asks you to make another order in order to fix a botched order, because it is an arrangement that only benefits the vendor. No one should have to spend more money in order to get what they paid for in the first place. As far as I am concerned, that is the price of being in business ... you mess up, you fix it, period.

That being said, you should go for a Heron to match your Paps :D

Yes I was wary of mentioning "that name", but I couldn't think of a way around it.

In the other place's defense they did ask if that was agreeable to me. Thought about the options and decided having an excuse to buy something wasn't that bad.

A Heron is a possibility, but I haven't even decided on a tank, mod, or accessories.

Almost got the Cartel but ehh. TS SE and Dominator ordered yeah baby. Sweet baby Jesus. Shut the front door !!!

*sigh* I got more jelly than a Dunkin Donut! :laugh: .. I will have that Special Edition eventually. In the meantime, I have to figure out a way to repay this cruelty that you mercilessly inflicted upon me :cry:

Ah, I will prolly forgive you by next week *wink wink* :laugh:

Oh, you could never wear out your welcome .. this thread exists to help members ... and sometimes entertain them too :laugh: Please do not be shy to ask questions and such. :)

OK, remember what I said about careful what you wish for? :) Here's a couple or three questions;
That Kraken I asked you about, there are two on FC 19244 & 19353, any advice on which might be better?

I need to get some wire for the Kraken and I'll be getting a dripper soon, what gauge/s should I buy to play with? I have a roll of 32 I bought from Temco off Amazon for my clearomizers, I'll buy more from them because it's such a deal but not sure what to get?

The Vamo V5 I have coming, I have no idea what 18650 battery to get or what a reasonable price would be. I have seen some say the Sony vtc5 is the best? Should it be a flat top battery?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
:)

Its not your fault sweets, I asked ... next time just say "devilcigs" or "unethicalcigs" either is appropriate :laugh:

As for the other place, at least they asked :) ... I've been through defective merchandise with them before, in one case I demanded a refund, and in the other I accepted a credit because there was something else that I wanted. I have nothing bad to say about them. :)

I love that Heron, its on my list ...

:laugh: Its all good, I got you ... The Kraken, the difference between the two is a parts package, so I would go with the more expensive one. I have a SS Kraken made by this same manufacturer and one of the things that I liked was the generous supplies that came with it .. I still haven't used all the ss mesh, and I bought it 6 months ago.

You should choose your wire gauge based on the resistance result you want from your build. Higher gauge = higher resistance, lower gauge =lower resistance.

If you are a planning on running it in dual coil, I would use the 32 gauge because its thinner, and easier to capture both coil leads on the positive post. If I had one criticism for this particular Kraken it would be the washer on the positive post. I found it very difficult to get a good dual coil build with 30 gauge, had more success with 32.

But I also prefer the Kraken in single coil mode any ways ... the Kraken is a great RBA, flavor w/ss mesh is stellar, and vapor production is second to none. The air flow control is the best on the Kraken.

Battery: Sure a Sony is fine if you choose, but that is a lot of unnecessary power for a regulated device that will never use even half of the batteries current capacity. But again, there is nothing wrong with using a Sony VTc5. Any quality IMR 18650 will due, and Sony is not the only good 650 battery out there. There is AW, Samsung INR, Panasonic, some Sanyo's and LG's.

Being that you are buying for a regulated device with a limited output of 5A, any of those that I named above will suffice. :) Hope this helps ya!

ETA: whoops .. I lied .. the difference between those two Krakens is the manufacturer .. the parts packages are similar, but I am more familiar with the manufacturer of the $18 Kraken .. I have no idea who makes the other, or how the quality would be
