I have an Aris clone on the way. My plan is cut off the part that airflow comes out of so it goes straight up like a Magma. Maybe i'll just drill straight down and shove a 2mm 316ss body piercing needle in there...not sure until i have it in hand and can examine it. I'm a sucker for RDAs with underneath airflow. I use the Magma, Lancia, and Achilles. I bought a variety pack of different size piercing needles from Amazon to mod the Magma, Aris and N22. I can't remember which thread it is in but someone used a piercing needle in their Magma to help with leaking if overfilled or tilted too much. Seemed like a pretty simple modification so i'm going to try it.

I was looking for those pics. Did you take them?
OK, so they just left out the hole on the center pin. But wait till you get yours. You're gonna wonder if it's plastic too. :laugh:
...one more round in the ultrasonic cleaner...

...mine looks like a giant silver egg, BTW. :laugh:

How would I have taken pics of the authentic? No, I copied that pic off of the internet ..

Cindy, where did you get the mod? Link? I'm in love with the GP Paps switch. I swear I just have to think about it and it fires.

The Paps does have a really nice switch, although its too bad that my locking ring seized up on it :laugh: Doesn't affect the switch performance though. And a sweet angel sent me an authentic Paps spring for my switch, and a spring for my Heron too :wub:

Doris emailed me back this morning at 2-3am. Hopefully she got all the pics she needed. Very helpful!!!!

For the highness I spruced it up a bit with one of the favorite mods the Turtle Ship. ;)

These pics are lovely Weezy, really. The Erl looks really nice with the TS too ... I like the DT on your Erl better than the one that came with mine, which is still in the box. :p I haven't even dissembled it :facepalm:

That variant clone looks very tempting but having a battery and charger included, what would you expect the delivery time to be?

I told Doris that if she was going to stock it then she should do so without the battery, especially in China. It would be different if they were stocking it in the US, then you wouldn't have to worry. I have never ever shipped batteries via regular mail from China. My Variant was sent via DHL so, I have no clue what to expect from Epacket.

Ok, Nikki, need first impressions on ipv mini :). The color choices don't thrill me, but basic black always works. This might be one I get in gold though since its different.

Well, I only inspected the body, and put a battery in it long enough to make sure that it vapes, etc .. My impression is that is it exactly what I expected it to be based on all of P4U early promo info. I like the body styling a lot, even as I am not a huge fan of the button style. The buttons are all clicky and responsive, just wished they looked a little different. The quality of the piece on a whole is good, its solid feeling with an appropriate weight, not too light, not too heavy.

I took three vapes with the Heron at 15W, and it felt right on point ... I would say go for it. Based on what it is I don't see anyone being disappointed with it unless it was malfunctioning or something. I like it, and once I start using it I am sure it will end up in my regular rotation after my review is done ... unlike the Cloupor T6 which I never need to touch again :laugh:

Speaking of the T6, I did receive the T8 this week also, and my impressions it looks and feels way better than the T6 which I didn't like at all.

I think these are neat, but 8ml is a hell of a commitment to a single juice for me lol

Thanks for the pics Nikki. Some one had done an iStick comparison shot and now you've done the ZNA. The Mini falls exactly where I expected it to in terms of size. I'm also glad I ordered the black one as I know I'd scratch up that awesome looking finish. Also wow, is that the Zero? Did not think it was that small. [emoji15]

I agree Nikki, the DT is nicer. I was going to order one but, they're sold out and I couldn't even add one to my wish list... sure hope they get re-stocked :)

Will Doris bring the variant into the U.S. Warehouse? I'm not in a hurry to get one but would like it to show up in a reasonable time frame when I do order it.

I don't know hun .. but IMO that is the only place they should have stocked the complete kit. I will ask Doris about it tomorrow when she comes back to work.

    My favorite color is blue, but admit looking at the pics, not a fan of this blue, if I do get one, think it will be the black or silver one, more than likely the black :p

    That Dopvo dual parallel mech FT just put up looks SWEET! .. I think is looks better than all the Sigelei and IPV boxes personally. Now I want it, but afraid to order because of the timing. :unsure:

    I have ordered it after you told me about it, be a prefect work mod, and with coupon code and gift cert, was only 27 and change, if you don't get it, then I will let you see mine :p
