I swear whoever sets up the routing for USPS is a ...... My vape stuff was 45 minutes north of me in Cleveland Ohio this morning. I just checked my tracking again and now it is over a hour away east of me in warrendale Pa.

Long story short it went from Kent Washington, to Cleveland Ohio, to warrendale Pa and it will come to Akron Ohio in the morning and get delivered god knows when tomorrow.

Our mail is so hit or miss here. I swear we have a different mail man every other week. I literally live 6 block from the post office and some days the mail comes at 4pm and today it came at 9:30 am.

Frustrating when your waiting on something that's electronic and you don't want it to get rained on so I have my phone super glued to my hand checking the tracking every half hour. Her new moto x pure edition came today at 9:30 and thankfully the mail man knocked really hard because it was pouring down rain. I would of been ...... if he would of left a $428 phone on the porch in the rain

Your not alone,for the life of me i can't understand what they are thinking.I bought some stuff from a guy that is 1 city away from me,maybe a 40 minute drive.He sent the package out,it went from his post office,to the sort facility that is less than 10 minutes from my house,but instead of that sort facility sending it to my post office,they sent it to another sort facility in Kentucky,which then sent it right back where it stared at before it came to me.They claim they redirect to save money,but how is sending it 500 miles round trip instead of a 2 mile transit from them to my post office cost efficient haha.

Government math. It's worse than Common Core. Their software won't route anything short of 10,000 miles so they have to first send everything to NY, so it can then be sent to LA, so it can then be sent to Egypt, so it can be efficiently delivered.

Haha,sounds like some of my packages from fasttech haha.They go from China to Chicago,most times they come straight from Chicago to my post office,but every once in a while,that government math goes into action,and my package gets a U.S. tour before i get it haha.I've had 3 that left Chicago,went to S. Dakota,then Missouri,then Idaho before finally getting to me.I guess that's just more of their money saving efforts haha.

IKR? I bought my MMV Nanos off the classies from a dude in Florida and they shipped my mod to Honolulu-- seriously, or at least according to the tracking-- before it found its way back to Texas. Go figure. And that was the high-dollar, tracking-and-insurance express route. God knows what might have happened if he just put a stamp on it.

My RX is here! I took my MT off of my d2 and put it on this monster and tried it out. I cranked it up to 100W and that's as far as I can stand it! If I tried to take it all the way up, I'd probably shoot flames out my a..
I've got to go get my cat from the vet. I'm going to take this beast with me and give it a go for awhile.
Congrats Paul!:rickroll::rickroll:

There must be some connection between Florida and Honolulu.A few years ago i sold something on ebay to a guy in Florida,and same thing,paid for 3 day priority,it went from Ohio to Honolulu before getting to him 6 days later.

Mah is only milli amps per hour (length of battery life essentially) but what is the amp limits of the battery is more important, but if that coil was rated over 1 ohm.......iam in over my head, mechanical knowledge isn't my thing, @suprtrkr should chime in sometime here

I have no clue what that is from? What's the story with that?

Looks like a tank on a hybrid mechanical to me

Ok guys not to knock the happy off the thread but a friend of mine girlfriend's mech blew up in her face &knocked her front teeth out, cut her face, & started several small fires in the house (red hot fire button bouncing around)! She's an experienced vaper running a 2.5 ohm prebuilt coil in a tank, 2month old batt., fairly new mech! That's all I know for now! My friend is still investigating! He's been running mechs for years & doesn't understand what happened yet! When & if I get more you'll get more!


I want to make it extremely clear that I am NOT commenting about the safety of mechs either way! Just reporting an incedent that hit a little too close to home!

Update on the accident! I misspoke earlier the rig as configured has been in use for over a year clean & well kept! 510 connection (not hybrid) magnetic switch! The newest variable was the batt.. No brand yet! Black wrap yellow letters!
Here's the particulars!

I am actually aware of that but thank you! That's all the info on the wrap! Who's our batt Guru? Has he done a review/test on this brand?

Well, the battery didn't explode, but it sure vented. I'm assigning blame to the battery. Anything 3500mah and offbrand is likely a very low amp battery :(

I can't ID the mod. If that's the switch on the left, I haven't a clue. The top cap looks like a Stingray.

I'm pretty lost other then thinking the battery shorted out somehow. 2.5 ohm coil on a 4 volt battery is only 7 watts in a mech and 1.68 amps. That's no stress at all on a battery

I know. But, the battery could've been sourced from someone's reject pile.
