Introducing the Precise Strata RDA

[pAth77]

Sorry for off-topic jargain.... path77, your inbox here is full!!

OT: Thanks for lookin' out Nach. Inbox cleared. Now, back to your regularly scheduled program.

I recently traded something I was not using what so ever for a polished P+650. My only reservation was the member is located in Singapore. I haven't received the P+ yet but it's only been a couple days now and he has over 24 transactions, all positive feed back.

I think if the P+ arrives, and the timing is right I will be almost forced to complete a Holy Trinity of Strata hybrids.

Dang it, Im gonna ask something that has been poking me forever and I just have to ask and let you in on my thought.

hy·brid
ˈhīˌbrid/
noun
1.
BIOLOGY
the offspring of two plants or animals of different species or varieties, such as a mule (a hybrid of a donkey and a horse).
"a hybrid of wheat and rye"
synonyms: cross, cross-breed, mixed breed, half-breed, half-blood; More
2.
a thing made by combining two different elements; a mixture.
a word formed from elements taken from different languages, for example television ( tele- from Greek, vision from Latin).
a car with a gasoline engine and an electric motor, each of which can propel it.

I keep seeing this to describe types of devices. What I see is that they are mostly a genesis atomizer made to specifically match or have a streamlined look of being one piece rather than an atomizer attached to a battery device.
Again, these are usually an atomizer with a 510 threading or a specific thread that limits it to just that PV.

So what makes this a Hybrid? I dont see the combination of any different systems or threading or engineering? To me a hybrid would be taking lets say, a genesis and a silica system and combining them to make a 3rd or different system.

Or taking the device and combining the 2 standard threading and being able to use it on either a 510 or other type of connection.

Am I being silly or OCD? Its like being PC or Mac, a hybrid program is those that work on either operating system. A hybrid car uses gas or electricity.

Should I just shut up and get over myself, like those that post about steeping vs ageing or Personal vaporizer or e-cig or MOD vs etc....
Okay so I just joined that rank, So just tell me to shut up.LOL

 

[anavidfan]

Now back to your usual programming, sorry for interrupting the Amazing Strata Thread, oooops

 

[aziffel]

A hybrid don't have a 510 connection,the atty screws directly to the battery tube

 

[Nach]

What aziffel said, plus removing the 510 threads, eliminates an electrical junction as well.

I admit I'm tempted to pick up a P+ again to use with the strata. ARGH! Somebody stop me.

Call it what you will..

I just call it pure sexy'ness

Terminology in vaping is used very loosely, but I think that your second definition is what applies the best. A hybrid is a combination of two elements: the mod and the RBA. Typically, they are two separate units with universal 510 threads, which allow each to be used with a variety of different counterparts. The hybrid combines the two pieces into one unit, each of which are not functional without the other. Granted, there are some makers that use the same threading (e.g. 20x1) that allows certain hybrid tops to be used with mods having the same tube threading...but the concept is still applicable.

One thing that I have observed in the evolution of vaping is that you cannot let the misapplication of terminology get the best of you. For example, the term "sub-ohm" never made sense to me (and it still doesn't). I know what people mean when they say it, but it's a misuse of prefixes and suffixes (and English in general) that is all too common in the vaping community. Don't let your OCD get the best of you (I'm extremely OCD too)...just sit back and enjoy vaping!

Yeah, really. When I think of electronic, I think of something with a CPU and programming and a green bread board and capacitors, resistors, and other such soldered components. The name e-cigarette should really only be applied to a small fraction of the personal vaporizers we use.

And I'm pretty sure my pv is analog. Or if you consider digital to mean a device operating in binary (ones and zeroes), and if you apply 1 to a firing state and 0 to not firing, by a stretch of the imagination a cigarette is just as digital as a pv.

I admit, I don't understand what's wrong with sub-ohm though. Is that not an appropriate label for less than 1 ohm? Below an ohm. Sub ohm. *shrug* Are you reckoning it should mean negative ohm?

This seems like it'd be a good time for a Heisenberg joke, but I'm not sure where I'd find one. (Or if you prefer, I'm sure I'll be able to find a Heisenberg joke, but I'm not sure when.)

yes, I understand all the details, lack of drop, one piece etc...... But how does that make it a HYbrid? Dont get me wrong, I "Get" the idea, but why use that term? Instead of just saying here is our atty and our PV, great because it connects directly without loosing whatever.

I just see people throwing out terms that have nothing to do with what something really is. Now, I will not mention it again...................... , maybe?

I was just curious to see if I was missing something.

I cant wait for the Strata it will be a wonderful system for a nice smooth uni-body" look. Matching, all the way.

Because its just easier to say, "hybrid"

A more accurate term would probably be integrated, or maybe even proprietary. But I guess "hybrid" comes from the combination of battery holder and juice burner as a single cohesive device without the need for industry standard 510 / 901 / etc connector. Atty and battery mod are spliced together to form a single device greater than the sum of its parts.

Didn't anyone get my Heisenberg joke? Eh, maybe you'll get it later when it's no longer relevant.

Man! I can do this all night!

THANK YOU, Nach. THat is actually the most logical and honest reason Ive heard.

THANK you Rojo, thats what Im talking about. Integrated, proprietary etc.

It just always seemed like a selling point that make them seem more advanced etc. I guess sometimes my simple mind just wants the actual truth or facts.

Thanks everyone, I guess I was just in a "mood" this afternoon. Not a bad mood , just in a "resistant" mood?

 

[Rob S.]

"Hybrid" sounds cool.

"House of Hybrids".

"House of Atomizers & Battery Mods as One" - nah.

Less than one ohm would be "sub one ohm," so grammatically "sub ohm" would still not make any sense. I don't think that it means anything if you read into it literally, but that was my point to begin with. There's no real rhyme or reason as to why people come up with these terms. From where I stand, it all comes from the fact that vaping is still a relatively new thing, and there is no real basis from which to derive terminology. As long as what we understand what people are trying to say, then it's not really a big deal.

raq's way of telling us to get back on track? LOL

No sir.. LOL

1st thing I thought of was a train wreck so my little brain searched and found photo..

This is a SuperT thread... There will be a 1000 pages of all sorts of interesting banter related and not related to the topic.

So far, one of our family has been educated on "hybrids" and we have seen a wonderful graphical representation of the thread. It just gets better from here dear friends.
