Just ordered the Goby Starter Kit plus a 5-pack of its coils...(unfortunately, BLACK is the only color in stock)…

Oh dear. I got the Goby conversation started and now people are buying them. I'm going to feel guilty if it doesn't end up suiting your preferences.

I am very pleased with it though.

There shall be no guilt in Vapeland!

We are responsible vapers, including for our own actions. Sleep well tonight, Nate. :)

Really? I've been blaming you and Kat for years, for all my purchases. Just ask my wife. :blink:

LOL!!!! Well, there is that. :rolleyes:

Dean @Katdarling would like a word with you, just by the way. :lol:

Oh dear Nate, NO! Not a drop of guilt allowed here. "We ARE vapers!" and we all know what that entails. Just enjoy your Goby and worry not whether someone else appreciates its marvelousness! :D

HA! :lol: :lol: :lol:

OUR fault, eh? Yeah, welp, I can see that. C'mon, Gneezie. We worked hard to head up Enabler U, dearie.

You'll graduate with vape-a cum laude, no doubt!! (Go kount those Provis) ;)

I guess on the flip side of that, if he really likes it then I'll feel like I was helpful, which is nice. It's not like I forced him to buy it. Maybe I CAN sleep OK.

So last night I went crazy and turned the Goby up to 12 watts!

Huh. Doesn't sound that impressive when I type it out. But it did well for itself. I didn't open the airflow any more but it made for a slightly warmer, denser vape. I may leave it like that for a while.

I'm looking to replace a travel mod (and the criteria being cheap in case I lose it, light for obvious reason, and troublefree.)
Since @Katdarling and @DPLongo22 both talked about the Goby, how can I not look at it?
Looking at the reviews on the vendors' websites there're are several which mention leaking. Given that this will be a pocket mod, that will be a nonstarter if true.
Anybody have any comments on this?

Hey NY. I did have one incident of wet, but I quickly realized it was because I hadn't tightened the (top fill) cap enough. Other than that it's been stellar (knock wood).

Yep, do.

Thanks both of you, tutte due.
Kind of funny that I've been to Rome this year for a month, and two years ago for a month. Both times I didn't want to carry anything relatively expensive (Provari, Jac, Kabuki...) Nor, for the same reason anything that was relatively heavy, since it was going into my shirt pocket.
So, two years ago and this year I brought with me the stuff which got me off cigs: Halo Tritons, nice and light and cheap if I lost them. Two diffs: this year the batts are clearly beyond their useful lives, not lasting more than a couple of hours, so not good; second diff is that I brought along a Juul, just because I have one and it's small. It may save me.
Went to a vape shop here in the Trastevere section of Rome, just because I was curious. It was a real vape shop. Last time here I went to one and walked past it four times until I went into a clothing shop at the same address to inquire, and there nestled between the men's and women's sections was a vape counter with high end mods and juices.
Anyway, I've got a week and half left here, sadly, but if the Tritons totally give up the ghost the vape shop here carries the Goby, though it's named something else here, and costs a fair bit more.

And, regarding the scrumptious pizza etc etc. (A pic of which I posted somewhere.) They usually sell it by pieces which are (yes) rectangular, but they ask you how big a piece you'd like (visually) rather than by weight, then weigh it and bill you by the kilogram. An etto (a bit under a 1/4lb) is a convenient way to ask for something, like some prosciutto or cheese, but normally stuff is priced by the kg.
And just to prove myself wrong, as always. Here is a pic of the local pizza joint's spin off which sells desserts and pastas. As you can see, they price the fettucine by the kg, and the gnocci by the etto. Donna why. Let me know if you want to see more of bella Roma.

I believe it may be called the GEM (if my not-so-great memory serves).
