Nice!
Just made a build on the new rsst from the cable smitighe sent me.
Cable,bakero and a little mesh.
.9ohms and blowing my mind.)
First attempt I didn't use mesh and smitighe got me scared so I redid. Didn't work out reusing the ribbon so I redid it quickly.
Without the mesh it was instant glow but .7 and with the mesh, it was a little more finicky but higher ohms like I wanted.

The inside is very similar to the AGAT, but it has 2 much larger nuts on the top of the positive post. Yes, I know how that sounds.

Schnarph, I think it looks better unpolished. It sorta has the cool patina like bronze gets when it's exposed to the elements (especially salt water) for a while. I think if your copper mod got that greenish patina that copper gets, it would be cool.

I just wanted to share this with the Heavenly Army folks. I just got my MVP and Protank in the mail. I can't believe the difference it has made for me. My juices are coming alive again, better than they were before. I'm vaping Dew right now and it's so clean and crisp. I love it. Once this runs out, I'll fill it up with some Legend. :vapor:

I didn't know vapor production and flavor could be this good! Happy vaping everybody!

I want to hear updates on the MVP. For some reason, I want one. Maybe it's the report of amazing battery life. Or using it to charge your phone in a pinch. I don't know, but I like it.

Yeah, sounds kinda painful with them on top of the post - more comfortable hangin' down along side. :D
That looks great buffed up, Schnarph!!! Congrats

Hey WE'VE GOT VAPE MAIL!!!
CouldN't wait for the CoOp gear to arrive so last week I ordered the needed bases and new heads for the T3, also threw in 4 Evods and heads for them. They just came in yesterday.

I like how the Evod looks on the eGo Twist - it also fits on the Vamo, but it's a tight fit, so I'm still gonna use the adaptor. They hold about half as much juice as their big brother the T3 and sometimes that's good if I want to change to a different flavor. The new bases and heads fit the old T3 tubes perfectly, so those are back in business. I was going to get a ProTank as well, but Health Cabin was out of stock. Guess we'll just have to be patient for that item.

Oops, time for class. Catch ya'll later. :toast:

I liked the worn look myself, but it got worse on a daily basis. I also got tired of my hands getting dirty after using my mod. Oxidation is no friend of electricity, and since the pipe connector piece and end caps are only press fit, clean and polished is a good thing. I'll take function over form anytime.

I love my MVP. I use it quite often. Battery life is fantastic. Haven't used it to charge the phone yet.

FYI, Slim, the RichMan's RBA uses the same pyrex/quartz tank tubes as the AGAT+/2, as well as most if not all the same gaskets. I have many spare tubes and gasket sets, which is a nice bonus.

I finished the polishing job with some new cloth wheels, and now the RBA is a little too shiny. :ohmy:

The tank is full of Sludge/Oompa mix, making this a HHV friendly picture. :)

I think it looks good polished! :) I might have to get a second one and do the same

Here's what I'm using until my richmanmod gets here

Ok so I just rebuilt my first protank head. Really easy. I used a drill bit to make a 4/5 wrap of 30g then threaded 3mm silica thru it. Was a little bit finicky to get the coil right where I wanted it position wise. But she's coming in at 1.5ohm and doing well. No flavor wicks.

Small paper-clip, large nail clippers, 3/4 inch of 3mm silica, 2 inches of 32 gauge AND 3 minutes of time is all it takes to put a coil together for a ProTank.

Really it's that easy! ;)
