So now I am looking at the robbot tech ZNA....dang you all!!! :) Of course I have to get two. I can't get me one without getting sandy one. But now I am a bit worried reading the issues with the two that did not work. :(.

That is a legitimate concern all things considered .. you could wait until Doris gets back and email her and ask them to check them before sending, which honestly I would like to believe to they would do now anyway.

I know, right? If I had been told that I had to push and HOLD till my next birthday all the screens would have been fixed a long time ago! :unsure:

And FYI, I did successfully mod my Robbot ZNA to accommodate both 18490 and 18500 batteries but not without A LOT OF FRIGGIN AGGRAVATION! :cry: .. I am too tired to explain it all right now, but if you bare with me I promise that I will come back with details of the modification. Its very easy, but there are some things you need to know first :blink:

It almost put me over the edge (true story)

Okay folks, Rose built and being vaped! You need to know that this was a very long (couple of hours off and on) ordeal! How many times did I throw down my tools and yell fook me? I lost count! BUT, it's finally done and worth every painful minute. I am vaping it at .9 ohms @ 14.7watts and it is delicious! I refilled the Orchid this morning and have the same juice running in both of them for comparison. Rose is on the DNA30 and Orchid is on the ZNA30 running at the exact same! Fact is, if the tips were the same I probably couldn't tell the difference! That being said, they look completely different as I have a purple tank on the Orchid but they're both beautiful! Rose holds a ton more liquid but my Orchid 26650 is on the way, that problem solved! I seriously can't pick a favorite between the two but because of build difficulty and lack of ability to change the drip tip on the Rose, it will be my only one. I do however LOVE being able to control juice flow, beats the pants off re-wicking 100 times to get everything perfect!


:laugh: Tamipac why are you so GANGSTA! :lol: .. Well, I am still waiting for my Orchid V3 to arrive so I can't offer any comparison feedback on that front, but I am definitely looking forward it ..

Speaking of things to look forward .. My GP Heron was kidnapped and sent to the wrong place! :cry: I was supposed to get it yesterday, didn't come. Didn't care much because I was busy but expected it today. Well no dice :cry:

Go to check tracking and my Heron went from being 15 minutes away in Melville NY, to going BACK TO ISC NY, then to Flushing again, then to a place called Millbrook, then back to Melville Long Island which is where is it was last sighted :cry: .. Why have the Vape Gods forsaken me? :unsure:

I received my first order from FC and I have a question. When I took the mailing label off the bubble envelope to shred, there was another label, also addressed to me. The covered label has a Wallbuys logo instead of the return address. Is FC a drop shipper for a drop shipper? :?::laugh:

ETA: Cindy, I went to the Wallbuy site, and boom, there was the silver dragon staring me right in the face! :ohmy:

:laugh: No, Wallbuys is the parent company of Focalecig, so maybe the US warehouse was given shipping supplies? My orders out of China usually have a Wallbuys sticker on them.

    Check you out big spender! :2cool: .. The Rose and ZNA is the "it" combo at the moment :banana: But I am also excited about the Squape R clone because it has an adjustable 510 as well, and the flavor is being reported as outstanding, at least on the authentic. Now all I need is a new drip tip for the Squape because I am positive that I don't want to use the one it comes with. :p

    Talking about drip tips, because of you I have to get some new drip tips, now you forced to get something blue, I got to get some blue drip tips to go with it now, all I have is black and silver drip tips, and think a blue drip tip would look cool with the blue hanaa.

    Even if it just said "Made in China," I'd still buy it.

    I agree 100%, like the squape, I do like the logo's, but not going to try and pass it off as the real thing, I just like the different toppers, I couldn't care less if they stamped 'cloned in china' on the bottom, and this is what china needs to start thinking about, still do clones but work around all this BS.

    Your confusing me again, was it a lot of aggravation or was it easy? oh never mind, I don't have one, so it doesn't matter :p

    At least it is in the US, think my stingray x fell off the plane and is in the sea somewhere, shipped same time as the hanaa, but still not made it to the US yet.

    That is a great idea Darth! You should also see if the Kayfun M-tanks or nano pmma tanks fit because the blue M Tank is really nice, its my favorite clear tank for the Kayfun. :)

    It is easy after someone like myself went through the paces and made all of the mistakes first. Hence "the things you need to know first" :glare:

    Is that better Nailzy? :p

    I'll be waiting with baited breath ;)
    Can I please get a PM for the magnets on the DNA 30?
    These are molybdenum magnets:1/8 x 1/8 N52 (strong)
    https://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=D22-N52
    These are molybdenum magnets: 1/8 x 3/16 N42 (not as strong but longer)
    https://www.kjmagnetics.com/proddetail.asp?prod=D23
    The person who did their CHANA magnet upgrade over on the .................. Forum used the weaker but longer magnets. I'm thinking that the stronger but shorter would be the better choice. At least it'd be less drilling of the case and cover.
    ... I got to get some blue drip tips to go with it now...
    I mentioned the ceramic ones from FT awhile back. The ones with ladies, flowers, dragons and patterns. I got the 2 pack of blue ones. White porcelain with a "Chinese" pattern, the other with a blue dragon. Looks nice, feels good. The mouth end is flat and the entire thing curves slightly, like a pipe stem. Only problem is that the air hole at the mouthpiece end is too small, it restricts flow. But does it ever concentrate it!

    I agree 100%, like the squape, I do like the logo's, but not going to try and pass it off as the real thing, I just like the different toppers, I couldn't care less if they stamped 'cloned in china' on the bottom, and this is what china needs to start thinking about, still do clones but work around all this BS.
    I think the vendors need to start asking for it, to keep them out of trouble, if nothing else. They have the power to do that, don't they? We don't care if it says "Made in Switzerland." In fact, I would like it if it said "Made in China," just for the novelty of it. I just ordered my copper Vapelyfe, and I'm biting my nails now, because these have a history of getting shipped out with mismatched serial numbers. :ohmy: Gonna drive my OCD crazy! :laugh:
