Well I have dealt with Hibi before and had some trust built up with her and that's another reason I tried my first co-op with her, so the money was sent as a gift....which is my mistake but like I said I have dealt with her before just with pms and paypal and things went smooth and she seemed like a cool person in our vaping community..but I am still not going to blame myself because I can not control her actions.....


That's my story and I am vaping to it!!!:vapor:

A little break from the kanger blues. I posted this in another thread about my big purchase of an Ihybrid Pure. It is kind of a first impressions of my first hybrid.

Here goes:

I'd like to jump in here cause I just got my Ihybrid Pure and Love it. I purchased it from Elevated vaping.
1x iHybrid Pure 18490 for $105.00 each
Subtotal : $105.00 USD
State Tax : $7.88 USD
Shipping : $0.00 USD
Total : $112.88 USD
They said they usually have free shipping but they had to up the price to keep the price in line with what faceless wanted. OK, I kinda understand. I was a little surprised at the tax, but, it just might be a California thing.
They announced on their facebook page that they would be up for sale at 9pm pacific time. It was so exciting, I have never been in a f5 war. When 9pm struck, I refreshed, pressed buy, checked out and got it. I had registered with them before hand and was logged in, so my info was there. I also had my visa number copied, so, I just had to right click and paste it. But then, oh no, they want the 3 digit number from the back of the card, I quickly input the 3 numbers. Man, what a rush. Order success on 7/31, received on 8/3.

It arrived in a regular flat rate box. It was tucked into a piece of foam pipe insulation. When I first saw it I thought it looked so nice, smaller than I thought it would be. The finish is very well done and it feels like tiny lines around the tube.
The bottom switch has perfect threads. The flat end has the ihybrid symbol engraved. The indents part of the switch look nice, but, to me they feel rather sharp. After using it for a while I really try to avoid that part. Maybe a light sanding in the near future.
The cut out of the power symbol is also very sharp. The center of the power symbol is kind of like a little tab. I am afraid that any bending there would kink it easily.
The drip tip hole fits most, but not my fancy siam mods ss drip tips that I won in one of Todd's Reviews contests. The hole was too small. Also, with the anodizing in that area I am afraid It will get scratched using different drip tips.
Now, What does the deck look like? After 20 minutes of stress and strain and one of those rubbery jar openers, I was able to get the top off. Even now, after applying juice to the orings, it is a bear to remove. I wanted to take the glass off to clean it, but, after the fight with the top cap, I decided it looked clean enough to me. I won't attempt it until I have a spare in hand. I will also wear leather gloves. (I'm a safety freak).
The deck is simple. Center positve pin with phillips head screw. Two negative phillips screws with their wick holes. No extra fill hole if you run dual wick and coil. The negative phillips screws are in there pretty tight. I came close to stripping one even though I had the correct size phillips tip screwdriver. I set up 400 mesh and 34 gauge kanthal at 1.5 ohms. Took a while to pulse it in, but I am still a rookie. Filled the tank with my DIY Peachaloupe and it vapes beautiful clouds. Vapor Great, Flavor Great and Throat hit Great. It can only get better with experience.
I am still getting used to my first hybrid, bottom button mod. I am still trying to get used to the bottom button and how to hold it comfortably. I think I am catching on.
All in all, I am happy with my Pure.

I bought a new phone today.

Why I resisted a smartphone for so long escapes me.

This thing is seriously cool.

What phone did you get?

I'm waiting for a RichmanMod Hybrid preorder to ship, kinda wishing I would have just gotten a Pure

Got enough mods, still waiting on my Odyssey 22K Gold to come back from repair. Which reminds me I have to send off a note to remind them I'm still waiting. Been over 4 months now! Kind of sounds like this CoOp. ;) I bought it from their US store but they have to get replacements from the UK store. Problem was that the positive pin was recessed too low inside the mod and didn't always make connection with pins on many tanks. They (Totally Wicked) replaced the upper pin assembly which has corrected the firing issue.

There was also some gold plate finish blemishes on the tank and that's what we're waiting for a replacement tank.

Hi Everyone,
I have been ghosting as I have been told by someone that I irritate everyone :(

Nothing happened to Shekinahsgroom. :mad:
He is running a co op right now.:facepalm:

Really? And you know this how?

That's ridiculous and lowers my faith in ECF :(

You are making alot of assumptions here. You would have to know the whole story to lower your faith or are you just lowering it on your assumptions?

First of all, no one was banned from this CO-OP by anyone, per my instructions. The reason the thread was closed was because of all this talk of banning members. Soon after I instructed both hibi and shek that no one would be banned and to fulfill the orders as promised.

As far as shek entering the picture, that was hibi's doing and she should have notified me if she was bringing someone in to help handle the turmoil she created but she didn't. As far as shek goes, we do not discuss actions against members and I won't start now. A CO-OP host has every right to refuse a member for whatever reason they choose, just like anyone has the right to refuse someone in the Classifieds, it's really no different. It's their reputation at stake, as well as could be their loss of money too. So it's always been this way and won't change. The anxiety of this entire CO-OP was creating chaos and that's why it was closed to discussion. This chaos was not so much the members, it was hibi, so I'm not blaming the members. So please don't misunderstand.

As soon as I have time, as promised, I will be posting in the CO-OP thread a full explanation of this whole ordeal. This should happen sometime today. The link to the CO-OP is below and is still locked but if you are subscribed you'll be notified when I post.

Hi Everyone,

Nothing happened to Shekinahsgroom. :mad:
He is running a co op right now.:facepalm:

The only thing I could do was assume nothing was done to him if he is currently running a co-op. now that I've heard otherwise my opinion has changed

Thanks for the update Joker

One thing I will tell you is, shek was pulled into this position by hibi and thought what he was doing would calm down the situation. shek is a really good CO-OP host and should not be prevented from running CO-OPs because of hibi. Yeah, I disagreed with how he chose to handle the chaos, hence the closing of the thread. We just have to keep in mind that hibi is the one that started all this mess and now we can move forward.

I appreciate your understanding!
