Anybody been down the chip aisle lately? 1960's you had regular potato chips. They came in a box. Two brands. One or two brands of pretzels and Fritos. That was it No bbq, sour cream and onion, cheese, doritos, ruffles, bugles, wavies, kettle cooked, sour, salted, unsalted, tostitos, blah, blah, blah. Three feet of aisle space.

It's a microcosm of what Americans are like. We all think we are more special than what we really are. I'm guessing we could eliminate more than half of the current lineup of the various coffee blends/flavors/varieties and our lives would be no worse off. Bought some cottage cheese today. Large curd, small curd, fat free, 1% milkfat, 2% milkfat, whole milk, house brand, Breakstones brand, Daisy Brand, Friendship brand, 16oz, 8 oz. That's 48 combinations of cottage cheese. It took me 4 minutes to find the one I was looking for. And you know what? Had I grabbed any one of them my life would not have suffered one bit. In fact, it would be better because I would have 3 minutes and 45 seconds of my life back. Cottage freaking cheese!

First world problems, eh? Be grateful you have the choices you have. Just sayin! ;)

Duane...
If you're crafty enough to make those shims, perhaps you'd be interested in a resolution for the kayfun-fixed-pin problem, and be done using the shims?

Check this out:
How to close the gap under the Kayfun Lite
(This didn't involve grinding the pin. It was much easier than that!)

As of finishing the steps listed there, I can now use my KFLs on my non-flat cap v2.5's, without having to put a shim of blue painter's tape under my beauty rings.

I had always wondered if I'd get ALL my v2.5's converted, and I did. Except these two...because they have color matching slanty top caps. The black one is an authentic VaporForce Stealth Mini (from before they married into Provape), with matching custom Cerakote'd KFL+v2.
The green one is my original Bronze Mini, which I rescued from an abuser. The coating was in very bad shape. So I tore her down, custom coated her OD Green, matched a KFL+v2...and sent her home to the Mothership for a paid spa treatment (reassembly). While they scolded me for taking her apart (had to clip the wire between cap and board), they also marveled at how awesome she looked in this color combo. (All handled without phone support by the way... :banana: :pop: :but not banana popcorn cuz eww: )
I dubbed her the Soldier (cuz she's been through so much, and cuz she's Army green)...I think she makes a great compliment to a Stealth!

I absolutely LOVE the OD Green finish. Well done indeed!

I'm just glad gluten free is a popular fad diet, makes my life a lot easier with more and more products on the shelves lately.

I also wish every device I bought came with a spring loaded center pin- not all attys fit the same.
I also am disappointed to know the Radius doesn't come with a spring loaded center conductor.

I swore I would never buy another mod that didn't have a spring but this mod seems worth trying.

eBay is there if I'm not happy with it.

So after much soul searching and sleepless nights, I went full Stealth. :D Black buttons and dark display window. Looks over function I guess, but I think it looks cool.

I am heading to 'Merica this Thurs-Sun for a mini vacation, so I am hoping it will arrive next week when I'm back if I am lucky.

I picked up a second black Classic today (great deal on Craigslist) and have 3x 2.5's and a Mini Volt already waiting at my hotel. I am excited to see the Stealth, but I have enough new/newish Provaris to keep me busy.:)

Last night I had nothing better to do so decided to update my Radius to V20.
Is it me cause it seems the battery is lasting longer???
Hard to tell since I haven't been using it consistently today.

V20 did work some magic with the battery monitoring system, so it's not you.
