I use Photobucket. It's free and gives you the code to post pics on forums like this.

I used to use Photobucket until I got blacked out twice for exceeding the bandwidth limit and asked to pay for an upgrade .. been riding with imgur since.

Photobucket is ok if you don't post pics often, its not good if you post frequently to the internet.

Apparently, I don't use it nearly as much as you. I've been using it for over 8 yrs (?) to post photos to forums and never reached the bandwidth limit. Maybe no one looks at my pics :( :laugh:

Just went to look at my usage and they're down for maintenance. First time I've seen that. They have a cute little kitten hanging from bed sheets.

Don't listen to the Cat, we like big porn :glare:

But it you look at the lower right on imgur you will see the options for thumbnail, large and full size :)
Sorry, I disagree. You should always listen to cat people. ;)

BTW did you see that AW released an 18 amp 18490? That would go well with your ZNA's and you wouldn't have to do purple (not that there's anything wrong with purple).

And they post an embarrassing and obnoxious message in every place that your photo used to be that says "oh look who's popular" :glare: My photo and video file list is extensive :laugh:

I Must agree Focalcigs seen to be a up and comer I ordered a russian 91% base and it was here in like 4 days, The air ways was obstructed so I contacted doris there sales rep and she sent me out a replacement hassle free and had my ne unit before the parte I ordered from fastech every go to me door the replacement was here fro Focalcigs, My hats of to the folk over at FocalCigs. They never even hassled me to send the old base back the just replaced it Proto. I will be switching most of my business to them and Anglecigs. The outrageous ship time are just not worth the savingings anymore fastech has some competition now and they are going to have to step up there service if they have any chance to stay in the game. Slowtech you have so big guns at your back so it like step up of step off

Just checked my account. I have 10.2 gb of space and 10gb bandwidth limit. I only use them for forum pics and I edit them so they're fairly small. Usually under 500kb. I use YouTube for videos.

Yes Temptress, I will gladly do your research for you. (I think I should go hide now)

AW IMR 18490 1200mAh
Being a cheap sort, may I suggest these because they're half the cost? ($4.75):
http://www.madvapes.com/pv-imr-18490-1100mah-battery-flat-top.html
They even have button tops for a buck more ($5.95):
http://www.madvapes.com/pv-imr-18490-1100mah-battery-button-top.html
Both are IMR 1100 mah 16A continuous discharge batteries. Even if they actually have less capacity than the AW, you'll have twice as many. Personally they seem comparable. Madvapes is a pretty reputable dealer so I'm trusting in the specs they claim for the battery.

Speaking of ZNA batteries... Has anyone had issues with the robbot 18650 tube being too small to accommodate pretty much any battery? I've tried Sony VTC5, blue Sanyo, red LG, purple Efest 3500 mah and all really don't want to slide into the tube. The red LG is ever so slightly smaller in diameter that it'll go into the tube if I'm careful and push just enough to get it to slowly slide in. I'm worried about tearing up the wrappers of the batteries.

The 18650 tube that came with my Robbot accepts every battery I have put in it, VTC5's. Purple Efests, and AW's.
I did get my Robbot from the second batch which had the 18650 tube included.

I haven't actually used the 18650 tube yet so I pulled it out to check when I saw this.....NO they do not want to fit! I have one MNKE that fits fine and the rest are a no go! Mine is from the first batch. Looks like I am going to need to have this replaced as well. I'm getting heartily sick of this!

Most bird people have too many birds :). I have 4, and they keep me very busy. At least once a week someone tries to give me another. 3 of my 4 are rescues. They have health problems and are very expensive to care for.

But, hey, woke up to an email saying my SqR parts shipped, woot! Probably be at least 10 days though before I can let people know if it solves the problem.

Hoping my ipv is back today. I've missed it so much.

How are the tubes on the wotofo?

Mine are perfect using a Sony vtc 18650 at the moment

about 18490..
aw 490 (1100 and 1200 versions) are great but pricey.
going cheaper, on thursday i'll receive some flat Tensai TN18500HP. they are 18500, but measure specifications say they are as short as the 490 aw:
aw nipple 490: 49.2mm. flat tensai 500: 49.1/49.5? nipple tensai 500: ?
will measure when arrived and will tell, because they are supposed to work at 22A continuous discharge, and their tests (including high current discharge curves) tell that their behavior is even better than aw.
if you don't need more than 5A continuous discharge, the red efest 18490 are the shortest: 48.7mm (flat), 48.9 (nipple). their behavior at low currents (<=5A) is acceptable.


my squape-r arrived. usual issue with 510 pin, asked for spares replacement. tank white o-rings came installed, but it's leaking as crazy, so:
should i replace the o-rings with thicker/harder o-rings, or lubing the o-rings with juice before installing the tank would fix it up?

to correct my last porn pics (the rose doesn't match the kato at all) will add these of the heavy kato with a tobeco kayfun+glass kit+short top cap,
plus nemesis with dressed up nautilus (tried the new replaceable bvc coils and they work ok, good flavor and vapor, last longer, useful when you have not time to make a build).
