I'm hoping so... I've been looking forward to it.. ;)




It was scheduled for last Saturday, but there's been no further activity..


that situation happened to me once from desert vapes, wound up sitting on a truck for 2 weeks before i got it, i called the USP claim office and the dude tracked it down for me...it was shipped first class so they were in no hurry to get it to me...but i did finally get it.
 

unsure

Finally, thanks to a USPS re-route, I have my G 50.Been putting it through some inspections and trials. Nothing scientific, just using it. At box opening, I was impressed. Nice box. Looking at the mod, I see no space at the left side as seen on previous post. Fit and finish seems on par with my other regulated box, a Clouper 30 watt. The two magnets hold the door OK but the finish is nowhere near that of a Reo. I miss the shnicking of the Reo door.

I like the feel of the buttons but wish there was a more tactile or clicky feel. There is a round robin to the adjustment buttons. No speeding up when held but that is not a problem to me. The 510 seems OK with only a slight catch cup for the provided atty. All my BF attys fit well. Oh, there seems to be a delay when firing if the mod has sat for a few minutes.

With the battery installed this mod has the typical five click on/lock. If the mod is locked, when unlocked, the setting is saved. After a quick douche with alcohol (not the drinking kind) of both the mod and provided atty, it was time for a coil. The atty has three posts leading me to believe a dual coil setup could be used but,,, there is only one substantial adjustable air hole. I built a 0.7 ohm coil wicked with KGD and fired this baby up. Using max VG MBV Chocolate mint, I found my sweet spot at 19.5 watts with the air adjusted at about half open. Squonking and draining of the atty was fine.

I have been through half a bottle and have noticed the battery indicator has not moved. This mod has worked well with a Zenith 2.5, RM6 and a Plume Veil along with the provided atty. The box for the provided atty calls this an Atomizer Series and comes with the standard double ended key ring screwdriver, spare screws, a couple of o-rings, some wire and a few inches of wound wick.No leaking at the bottle or feed tube.

I will be putting this mod in rotation along with my four Reos but only using it at home. It is not even close to being as robust as a Reo or other mech mods but, if it lasts longer than the Clouper I had, it is probably going to be a decent entry level regulated bottom feeder. OK, I am spoiled by my Reos and probably not as objective as I should be.

Hmmmm I believe you but that's weird because mine speeds up after a couple seconds held down. maybe they use different chips in these things.:unsure:

I feel your pain. I had a parcel take 10 days from New Castle IN to Chicago Il. 4 h 11 min (228.6 mi) via US-31. Could have easily walked there faster :(
It did eventually show up :)
Mine seems to have disappeared in the black hole of USPS tracking.. No activity since it left AC.. :( Hopefully, it will turn up soon..

Well I ordered the BF IGO-W from Rob.
He lowered his price from around $42.00 to $35.00 so I got off the fence.

Don't feel comfortable using the one provided and it's not that good an RBA anyway.

I'm really hoping that the IGO-W will fit and work well.

I've used the Igo-W before as a dripper and it was my favorite RBA.

The one it comes with is from a reputable company. Yiloong is the manufacturer's of the fogger rta. They do good work so Nothing to really be concerned about.

Mine shorted out when it was built. I had it done at a local VapeShop and he claimed that it was a defective center post.

More by accident then anything else, I was at another Vape Shop and he began taking it apart, said that the Center Post Insulator was really shoddy. He Micky Mouse fixed it, but didn't guarantee it for the long term. Said I should order re-build parts from Fat Daddy Vapes. Came as a complete Surprise that he fixed it. Ace of Vapes in Riverside, I have to recommend them highly. Unfortunately I was in the Area and found them but they are way far from my house.

I don't think the one sided slot draw is as good as a Two Side drilled holes. I don't really want to do any more modifications on it like drilling a hole because
the RBA isn't stable.

well i been vaping with my geyscano, i think i need some sqonking lessons.....i built a single .5 coil and it's sqonking but i just cannot seem to find a sweet spot or the rite drip-tip.....maybe i built it to low....everything is working like it should but just seems to hot....would appreciate some input.
i cleaned it real good with 99% ISO.

edit: took about half the rayon out of what i was using and now getting better results, i'm gonna figure this thing out.
