Merry Christmas! Long time no see!

My Radius came from ProVape and there was no plug in the box. I looked very carefully. I haven't missed it; I don't have a plug for my phone either.

Hi, Ocelot! Happy New Year!

My VaporShark has no plug either and has been working just fine without one, but the Radius's "form, fit and finish" is "classier" in all ways. The plug just seems to complete the look of it to me. However, I'm finding out that those plugs are only black for ALL colors of Radiuses......Radius's......Radii.....*sigh* So, if ProVape is going to cover/fill in/disguise the hole, it should be done with......Warning! Warning! Incoming OCD!..... a matching color. Ha! ..........I do not iron my jeans! :)

Always enjoyed LongRange. A saying, in my Country that is taken from the old Bell Telephone commercials, " LONG RANGE, THE NEXT BEST THING TO BEING THERE". ;)
I always made up any missed points on the range (I'd usually drop a few on the 100yd off hand) @ the 500yd....those were easy money for me.

Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

Would "thingy" be the technical term? [emoji14]

You're right, I was using that as a catchall term. If you want to get technical, it would be a rubber thingy.

One could always spray the USB port with this stuff. It does NOT contain mineral spirits and dries pretty fast. It has saved my life with my stereo more times than I can count concerning buttons, dials and cable contacts. Just spray the port and connect/unconnect the cable a few times to get both ends clean. Myself, I wouldn't use anything else.

Got to agree with this :thumb: I got the little translucent covers from FT - but I am actually contemplating getting white to see if they look better :rolleyes:

Kates, have heard from another member that the white doesn't match very well......or to her liking. Would be pretty tough to match that ghostly white I think. She said she preferred the translucent, but you might like it better. :)

Thank you, Coldgin, for the helpful info. So many things can do double duty. :)

That means you'll have it Wednesday! From Washington, to Tampa from Provape is always just two days for me.
Ohhhhhhh believe me when I tell ya ... I've already cleared the calendar for that day. Ohhhhhhh yes I have [emoji844]
ProVape has never let me down with their 2 day. Ohhhhhhh no they haven't. [emoji106]
Now that damn USPS- If it weren't for them I'd have my Radius this past Sat. [emoji35]

I use contact cleaner all the time for electronic devices. When it has no impact any longer then I know the electronic device is beyond hope.

And I fell in the one half of one percent. No surprise. I share the same luck as Charlie Brown.

Don't you see? This makes you special. Really. It does. For without the one half of one percent, those two fellows wouldn't have a job. See, you're very special by giving them sumpin to do. Yes, special indeed!

It's still one out of every two hundred, not bad, but not all that rare either ;)

It's actually far higher than industry standards for electronics. Apple for example is rumored (they will never publicly publish the number) a 10 - 20% defect rate for iPhone.
