If a swat team shows up at your door, just tell them the Obelisk 120 was for your 510 flashlight and 510 soldering tip.
A couple reasons. First off is the record keeping others mentioned. Besides that the same thing is usually cheaper from overseas and you don’t have to pay the extra shipping charges for signature required.
You probably already know this but the PACT Act isn’t new. It was passed several years ago on cigarettes and smokeless tobacco. I used to be able to place an order for Swedish snus and have it ship for about $5. Now the cheapest you’re going to get it shipped is around $35 with adult signature and it goes up from there as the weight increases.
Yeah I should've caught up with the laws before I ordered.
Technically I cant see why when ordering just the box mod without a tank, juice or atty of any kind it can be considered a nicotine delivery device. At that point it could be used for anything really. Amazing what they will do when you take away their tobacco tax slush funding...but they weren't even satisfied once the ecigs started to be taxed.
I really don't remember how long I've had it. Maybe 1-2 years but it was never an all day, every day driver. I always have 12-15 setups going depending on what I have for reviews at the time. I did use it pretty regularly for a while in rotation and never paid any attention to leaving it charging overnight because if you use the fast charger then it charges pretty quickly. I did not have any issues during my time using it.Well...after all the hubbub I received "the package" yesterday and all is well. Was shipped all the way by the PS by the way...I thought...never mind.
It came charged to 60% so after verifying it worked I plugged it in to the fast charger and within a few minutes it was fully charged. I charged it last night before I went to bed and it just now dropped one bar of charge. I vape a .55Ω dual coil @35 watts. It's only slightly bigger in all directions than my old eGrip II...so I stretched the silicone sleeve I had on that over the Obelisk and cut and altered new holes for the functions. It works-ish...but I hope I can find a sleeve that fits correctly. Anyone know of one??
One thing I wish they would change is the charge screen. When you first plug it in it shows the percentage numerically...but then after a second or two it goes to a bar type meter. I wish you could make it keep the numerical meter up the whole time...or at least a way to bring it up at anytime. Another thing is the warnings tell you to unplug it within two hours after it is fully charged to save the battery. WTH...I thought it was smart enough to turn the charge off when it was full. This sucks as I am used to plugging my eGrip in when I go to bed so it was charged for the next day.
So we'll see how long the battery last..both daily and hopefully long term.
@hittman ... how long have you had yours...and was it a daily driver? Any kind of issues?
OK..good to know..thanks
I feel like it’s common place for manufacturers to over rate battery capacity or I should say how long a battery lasts. A lot of pods claim all day use with an 800-1000mah battery. It all depends on how much you vape and what wattage.OK..good to know..thanks
First full day of use...18 hours of use..177 puffs...about 35% battery at the end of that. Not bad...but I dont see getting 2 days as they advertise...but we all know how that goes.
I did find a silicone case for it on Amazon UK and ordered one.
Thanks again for all the help everyone.
I don’t know if I have any batteries still wandering around but have a charger and some attiesYeah It would be hard to pin down a time a mod will last due to vaping settings and styles are infinite even on a single setup.
To think I used to have these lined up on chargers just to make it through the day. I have boxes of this stuff..a lot NIB still. I was surprised that some of these still have a charge after 12 years or so when I started making my own. Wonder they will ever be a museum piece?
