one of the slow boats docked. shiny things ahoy.
arrived today we have a smoant charon TC 218, a teslacigs biturbo mech and a hellvape dead rabbit...oh and some sony VT6s (they'll be in the smoant i think).
the thing i'm probably most excited about...a wismec reuleaux RX machina mech mod + guillotine rda is still adrift somewhere but hopefully will toot toot in this week.

I'd say have fun, Lupinehorror, but you seem to be having tons of fun already :lol::lol:. Good luck with your new shiny things.... :)

many more ups than downs :) shinyitis will settle eventually...maybe. will wick the rabbit tomorrow morning (sounds a bit dodgy!). vape gear is certainly cheaper than the guitars i used to collect :headbang:

Nice score! I'm convinced for some of us, shinyitis is part of the addiction breaking process. It certainly was for me!
i think you're spot on.
started with picos now onto mods that are slightly more exotic (nothing at all wrong with the pico i hasten to add) and mechs and squonkers...then winding coils and mixing liquids. knowing that i'll never smoke again is a great feeling. really great.

I have to admit, I felt the same way. Now that I have (too many probably) a bunch of things I like, and I know I can do most stuff that I want to do (DIY, rebuild, not rebuild) I'm pretty happy and not anticipating needing much.

My husband would be thrilled to be reading this, LOL, but I can't really imagine vaping getting much better for me unless I could afford full-time Aroma e-juice, which I really can't. I don't need vape stuff for Christmas and I'm hoping that moving forward for a bit I just get stuff I need (flavors from time to time, coils etc.)

I wanted some measuring cylinders for those smaller amounts where weighing is a bit tough, went to Walmart and they gave me a bunch for free, that was nice. :)

But honestly, I can't see where I'd be improving on my vape, but I have some provari and kabuki stuff as well as some RTAs I love, and some bigger mods, I honestly can't imagine something is going to come along soon that's going to improve my vape any. Unless someone wants to send me a liter of WTA :lol::lol:, which isn't even really necessary at this point.

I have to say about all I need at this point is juice. I bought some 3mg thinking I was going to step down and I'm not ready. So now I've been skating on a little 6 here and there. Need to order some Wed.

I've got a $5 coupon for Cloudy but his juice is a bit much. I'm cheap. May buy a SS Drop and I'll be set for a bit.

Try Broke Dick. Pay Day (bourbon coconut banana orange, trust me) and 15th (banana cream are OMG good). E Liquid Depot has a fine vanilla custard and a really nice strawberry cheesecake.

I DIY all of my other daily faves, but these two vendors offer some fine juice and about $25 shipped gets you 240ml.

Will do.
I tried a lot of "premium" juice when I started and found it to be a label that's used liberally.

The Sauce LA usually has $5 60ml, burn through those.

the new additions (minus the biturbo...didn't want comedy at this time of the morning). was going to get the rabbit setup but have been thwarted by screws. the flathead i have in my toolkit is too wide for them so can't get them loosened. tomorrow we'll grapple again.

i've reached the point where i'm setup and don't need anything new but...always searching for the perfect rig. the nirvana vape :rolleyes:

i'm focusing on liquids rather a lot. a large batch of my strawberry cheesecake will be getting blended this weekend...well 500ml large (though i'll try weighing it...must get a plastic jug).
I miss ordering all the new shiny stuff as soon as it came out. Now I know what I love and have to wait for something to attract me. Like the Zeus I ordered today from Eciggity! :D
i will get a zeus...in the new year likely. cancelled the drop i had on order but the bonza should be tootling this way soon.

a fine price for that amount of liquid. nothing decent for that kind of money here (at least that i've found).
Will do.

crikey...that's also an excellent deal.

small update.
liking the smoant charon rather a lot. TC is excellent and it reads coil resistance precisely. battery life seems better than my steampunks but it's early days. the battery cover was a wee bit rattly bit squeezing the sides of the 'D' closer together stopped that. the fire button is also a bit rattly but i can live with that (the up and down buttons are fine). haven't upgraded the firmware yet. maybe later in the week.

another small update.
the rabbit has been built and wicked (i didn't wind these by the way though i might try creating a similar wire soon). wicked but not juiced as the squonker i'm going to use it on won't be here for another couple of days. do like the build deck...nice post design...though i will switch out the flat-head screws next time. these, together, come in at 0.15ohms.
