Are you on FB? There’s a Squid Industries page. May find a different vendor there.

i am not and never will be

Wow, a busy day in SquidVille here. I'm just now catching up a bit.





Umm... that'd be a YES, Mel. (Thanks, DPL)





Hi there, L&S! Welp all I can tell you is that the Squiddie rarely leaves my hand these days. It's a uniquely exquisite and simplistic device, with no frills (read: TC). I will say that I absto love using this mod and it's up there with some of the finest I've ever used.

I never even thought once or considered the warranty. Call me green, but somehow, it just felt like this was one I wouldn't worry about. My thoughts, reality now. (LOVE it!)



For the 99% most part, 22s are all we use, and I think they look fab!

All opinion tho........ as we know.


As for batts, I prefer the pinkies to the brownies. The pinks have a slightly better fit for me.


Keep us postata on your Squidly adventure, sweetie!

Thanks Kat! When one comes back in stock, hopefully I can snag one!

Another question.... my tank is 22 does anyone have a tank that size on theirs and does it look ok?

Current with a 22m 'Buki. Me like.

I have 8 provari’s and I couldn’t get batteries when I went to order at RDT so it got me to thinking I might need to buy something updated for a back up that’s easy to use. I have a Pico and I’ve never used tc since I use kanthal.

I just picked up a bunch from Orbtronics, which are the buttons I've been using since early 2012. My faves (3000 mAh).

I too prefer the pink Sammies in the DB, but the LGs are just fine too (IMO).

Nice to see ya!!!

Gotcha. I'm not sure about that as I've never used any. From day one, I've opted for "extra-inch/double-life" option. I hear the 490s are tough to get now, but I lack the experience to know for sure. I hope you find some!

I did buy 2 of the new v2 of the efest from Liion wholesale just to try them.

i am not and never will be

excellent...thanks.

If you have no luck with that one, I’ll ask on the Squid page. Out of the 3500 or so members, some of them should be from your side of the border.

I got a DB in the mail yesterday. I like it and can see why there is such enthusiasm. Very sturdy, smooth vape, it is good, very nice with a KF Prime. One question: Is there a trick or something to deal with that battery cover on the bottom? I am using two Sony's and that cap was a challenge to get on. I can't imagine that the cap - as I am using it - would last long.

 

[NolaMel]

My trick... put the front end in with lipped end slightly raised. Lower to level. Left thumb on middle pressing down, push forward to lock with right thumb. Now mine just pops in. First couple of times it’s a little stiff (at least one of mine was), but after that you can do it in the dark. I read on another thread some people pressed their batteries down the first few times before putting on the cover, but I didn’t have to so can’t vouch for that method

 

[suprtrkr]

It has been my experience the cap loosens up with use. Or perhaps my fingers figured out how. And I am pretty arthritic. I have no real problems with it.

Kongrats, CMD! Awesome news and I'm very happy for you to be a part of the krazy klub. What color did you get and would you like a wristband in honor of your latest purchase?

As for the cap, you CAN push down on the batteries a few times to loosen up the contacts. I've done that with some of my batteries. Eventually, the contacts will definitely loosen up and getting the door on should not pose a problem.

Also, I believe SV carries replacement battery doors. We got a couple not all that long ago.

Great, thank you. When these batteries finally need a charge, perhaps I'll get more used to it.

OMG, a wrist band, yes, blingy are they?
I'll push the batteries before a few times before trying the door. (When ever these things run out. 0.6 Ohms at a wapping 9 Watts.)

 

[Katdarling]

Blingy? Nah, these are more Squidly than blingy. So which color, dear one?

Black, I could not wait. I got the kit, to Hades with the atomizer, I like the Prime. Bronze got me on them and they are great.

A Squidly wrist band, I would be honored.

[Do these batteries ever run out, perhaps kind of kind of like "cold fusion" power for ever.]

Rarely ... I’m vaping at 12 watts, chain style like I smoked , and I usually swap them out at around three days, but I don’t like to let my batteries get too low before I charge
