    Oh no Nailz :( I was thinking about getting one of these. Was it the screw or the atty that rusted ?

    I'm sure it was the screw, I left it in the atty while soaking, and it was brown around the screw on the atty, but it easily cleaned off, they do provide grommets you can use instead of the screw, which means no need for a tool to fill, but once cleaned up, I just stuck the screw back in.

    I did a 3rd build on it, went back to 24 gauge at 8 wraps, and came out to 0.55ohm, and is vaping really good now, better flavor than before, I think it is worth the money, but nothing mind blowing though.

    Good to hear it was just the screw and that they include additional grommets.

    Also glad to hear you found a build that works on it for you :thumb:

    I can just picture it now:
    You walk in, take one good vape, cloud the place, smile, wink and walk out :D

    Bummer that your gonna have to keep your 5 pawns juice under lock and key at work.
    You could always put it in a MTBaker bottle to throw those thieves off ;)

    Yea sucks. It was sitting at my cube. Left it on Friday. Went in today and gone. Just had one tank of it. What a bummer. Be back in a few. Building the Orchid.

    Aight. It's ok for now. Need more time to tinker.

    It is very nice out of the box. No burs, no machine oil, very clean. No Allen key. Deck is nice. I'm using a Kayfun nano kit with drip tip adapter. For the price it's a nice buy.

    The build was 24 ga wrapped 6/7 on a 7/64th drill bit. Did a iTeo style wick. Credits to Deedupdex.

    Thanks G for the pictures, I think I'm going to try one out, not got a nano kit, but if like it a lot, can always pick one up, think this will go well with the blue hanaa I ordered yesterday :)

    You have to dig deep into the box, past the black velvety thing, past the cardboard with a hole thing. Underneath are zip lock bags with a bunch of stuff. The tiny, tiny allen key is in the bag with spare screws and o-rings. I just ordered one of these, because I already know I'm gonna lose it:

    I can deal with light flavor, but had no flavor at all, right now it sure isn't close on par with my russian, but going to do another build and will see if it breaks in :)

    Yes it does accept other drip tips ;)

    One real negative for me though, I got it before I went to bed this morning, so broke it down and let it soak to clean, and there was light rust around the fill screw, not even had that from cheap kayfuns/foggers from fasttech/focal, so was surprised to see it from the lemo.

    You didn't take the fill screws out first? I always take screws out before I wash .. not that surprised though, Chinese companies usually manufacturer minor parts in chromed brass. Glad to hear that the drip tip is removable though :)

    In the APV section the Eleaf istick is getting a ton of attention, folks seem really excited and pleased with it. Its way to small for my taste, and I don't like how 22mm devices look on it, but it certainly is cute though.

    Looks,much easier to drill out than the kayfuns. Let us know how that works. This one doesn't have the bottom fill hole...right?
    Right. The one from US warehouse doesn't (that's where mine came from). But the V2 from China warehouse does. But then you wouldn't be entered in the contest. :(

    I'll get the pics soon. Just got home. But..........I did a detour to that local vape shop that opened near by. The usual trying to sell me their line of juices. Blah!!!! I acted like a rookie at first. Then their egotistic kicked in. Him and his buddy. Something caught my eye out of the corner. Was the Turtle Ship V3. Price tag said 250. I was ...??? Let me see that mod bro. I really don't think that was an authentic they claim it is. My clone looks 10x's better.

    They started to giggle and continuing to chuck clouds around me. Woo wee I was excited but didn't bring my gear. Only my Kayfun. But my Kayfun modified was chucking as much as them lol.

    Anywho sorry for the rant. Taking the Orchid apart as we speak for a scrub down. Then will get pics after the wifey leaves. :evil:

    That is so janky of the B&M if that TS V3 is not legit .. I have never been to a B&M and I don't want to go to one either.

    In other new today .. I received that dern Nitecore D4 charger for review finally. Figures it would come when I no longer need to charge camera batteries at the same time as mod batteries :laugh: My new Sony camera comes with its own rechargeable battery :D

    I will be waiting for porn Weezy :banana:

    No I didn't take any screws out, I was in a rush to get in for a soak before I went to bed, so just took apart the main parts, lesson learned for the furture.

    Yes I am seeing a lot of rave for the new istick, not my thing, and is only 20 watts pfft, but can see it is taking over the MVP2, innokin need to get to work on updating their products, they are starting to get really dated now.

    I love Dragons and have a lot of Dragon stuff around the house, so this mod will fit right in here :) Hopefully the engravings on the 18650 version areas nice as the ones on your 26650 :) Once I get it I will post some pics and any fixes to the switch I might have to make to get it to function properly. Thanks again for turning me on to this mod :)

    Ditto here Drifter, love the dragons! My whole house is done in Modern Asian so they fit right in. From what I've seen the engravings are identical on scale of course. There is a thread dedicated but the people in there are pretty dry. It is my pleasure to share my latest stuff, I think we all like to do it.

    Love you guys!!!

    Yes it'll be easier but like every project I need to be precise on my drill bit. Don't want to go to big and mess it up. No fill screw. Just top fill like all my other tanks.
    :laugh: That is so wrong :laugh: and MBV has a premium specialty line of juice too .. I personally would steal the MBV before the Five Pawns. :p

    Weezy, which Five Pawns flavor was it?

    I've been vaping on GrandMaster, Castle Long, Gambit the last month or so. This time I got Lucena and only was able to get one tank. I'll just grab me the same 3 as before. MBV was my choice before. Still the place I get all my DIY flavor bases. You know they have them right? Pre-mixed in PG. All I have to do is measure VG/ no PG (lol) Nic, and a little shot of smooth from TFA.

    ETA: you already posted the porn, but I was replying to posts in order :p Nice porn Weezy

    All good. Yea that TS was looking way jankedified. The bottom switch look like it went through a washer. Mines was way sharper looking. He even said best "switch ever". Don't get me wrong it's a nice mod but Paps blow that out of the water.
