The Pico for me has become an un-replaceable purpose mod. It rounded out my collection as, when combined with a Doggystyle :)blink:), the smallest & lightest thing I ever require. It's basically my cigalike.

I was an admittedly late bloomer until my accountant (;)) helped me see the light.

Also, and somewhat key to it all, is that I max out at 22m tanks. I don't know what it is, but there's something about that number that I like. Go figure.

NEVER overhang. It's the only reason I never went for that one that Kat & KTM love (can't think of the name right now - too dark & early here). LOVE the mod, but the pin needs to move inward.

Now it's gonna bug me. :facepalm:

Gottagobye. BUSY day ahead! :|

That, and having to buy a new mod if you put the battery in backwards :)

GOOD point, Mr. Ock!

Thankfully that was never an issue for me, but I'm the guy who still slides batteries in very gently from the side. I'll forever cringe when I see (unnamed) reviewers dropping them into mods.

I don't like "BOOM". :blink:

Bingo. It's too short and my pinky has no place to go. ;)

I say make it full size, get rid of that battery cap, and make the 510 connection 25 mm in diameter--and I'll get another one. Maybe. :lol:

No, no, no, no... NO! Picos are absolutely perfect for me and I positively adore them (Psst, you don't want to know how many I have)! I always place my pinky under the battery cap side to support the mod, pointer finger goes on top of the battery cap, while I use my thumb to press the power button... That baby ain't goin' nowhere! My precious... :wub:

BTW, I have a few Pico 25s for my 25mm tanks, along with a couple of Tesla Nanos, Tesla Steampunks, and a Therion 166... All is good. ;)

I distinctly remember thinking that 9 mm was my limit. I thought eGos looked like gigantic sharpies and I could never get used to that size. :lol:

Seriously, I use mostly 22 mm tanks also, but I have 2 already that are larger. I want my new mod to have a wider 510 connection.

I'm still here on ECF... sort of. ;)

I think the battery cap is partly it. Not a fan of screw on caps anyway.

I've got the fix, gandy. Get yourself a red Nano (Hcigar) and put in a few batts repeatedly. Your Pico batt cap will soon be a glowing red heart whispering sweet nothings to you. ;)

It's the only reason I never went for that one that Kat & KTM love (can't think of the name right now - too dark & early here).

Wake up and smell the light of day!!!! :D

It's the Sbody Macro, and I agree. Had they made it along the lines of the Heatvape Defender, it would have been a THOUSAND percent better. ;)

Awww, Deb.. :wub:

No matter what I do, I just can't wrap my hand around it comfortably... It just doesn't fit. :facepalm:

Yeah, but then I'd have to change my name and what-not. ;)

Besides, I'm in "reduction" mode now (and I don't mean weight). I finally gave up. "Stuff" won. :lol::facepalm:

THAT'S IT! Thanks, Kat. :D

YES, by the way, on the center connector. I'd probably have a gaggle of them if they'd gone that route. Maybe it's best they didn't. :blush:

Hah! I had no idea! :D

Yeah. You and KD could probably open a vape store together. :)

Moi, I'm a very cautious kat. I never buy version 1 of anything, I always wait for v 2 or 3, and then I buy just one of each. Never multiples. I've been eying DNA mods for a very long time with nothing to show for it--yet. And yet, I too have too much stuff. It's time to thin the herd--again.

Whew. Not just my posts. The forum is having hiccups again? :lol:
Sure seems something was implemented a bit ahead of completion. :facepalm:
Code monkeys hard at work. :D

All automatically linking to vaping . com... Might drive some more sales there, but I wonder what would happen if we actually linked to something in particular? Would it still redirect to V.com and totally mess up our link? :blink:

Help! :(

Wow, what just happened to my post? Red live links to "buy" and "DNA mods"? What's up with that????
Heh. Here I was reading all that “replacement=[gobbledegook], first thinking “What are all these folks doing!?”, then “Has something gone whacko in my iPad?”. :w00t:
