I said I'd post pics when everything came in, and today the X came--family is nearly complete!

While I uploading my image to my flickr account, I came across a picture I uploaded on June 3, few weeks after I started vaping. Please pardon the strange exposure, I was playing around with my speedlight (rather unsuccessfully), and I jacked up the saturation for some reason :p

I've since sold everything in that image. This is where I am now (natural light for the win!). Chi and Immo are fakes btw :p

I'm sure all you can relate but I've been browsing for my next mod :?:

any feedback on JA vapes?

ja-vapes

i love it aesthetically but was more curious about the button feel.

it'll be either this or an atomo in the near future.

I didn't even know about ja-vapes until I read your post. Looks pretty slick. I wish I had something more to say, but I don't :p

I do have an Atomo though. It's nice. It was another mod that wasn't on my radar until I read a random post somewhere. "Paps-like" is how I'd describe its button. The throw isn't quite as short as it is on a Paps, and the action is a little more firm, but it's very smooth. It is the closest thing I've felt to the button on the Paps. I have a 2.5SS and I actually tend to reach for the Atomo more (new toy effect maybe). It hits hard, and it feels nice in hand. My only quibble about the button is that there's no way to lock it. For that reason, it's never gets to leave the house--it's strictly a stay-at-home mod. Even so, I still really enjoy it.

I actually got to use this at ECC! Its nice, well built, 'merica!.
BUT, I did not buy it because it was incapable of use for the 18650 size battery, and I cant get any sub-ohm fun from 350s/490s/500s so I had to pass, it is a really nice mod though, hit decent for an 18500 battery but not enough for what I want mods for.

paps-like button?! that immediately puts the atomo on top for me. looks like the Atomo V2 has a bottom cap option with lock ring.

v1 looks better IMO

Just stopping by to say hey... I havent posted in a while, mostly been on the HEM forum when I have time plus work's been crap lately with all the traveling, but this should be a good vapemail week for me, after about a month of waiting for both, I should finally have my templar and rocket by the end of the week... I actually cleared out most of my stuff recently, said buh-bye to anything I had two of or wasn't 100% quality, and got rid of all my silica/eko crap, I gave it a go for a little while, but I'm back to mesh only from now on.

I was having a hard time deciding what juice I wanted this morning, so I brought 3 setups with me to work :laugh:



btw this origen dripper is no joke, only dripper I have/need, if your still thinking about it, STOP, get one naow! (old pics, i'm running 100% mesh in it now)
