Like $32. But "if" they see it's bad via video (dead. just won't charge) they want me to return it so they can see it, then they'll ship a replacement. So shipping to china is... how much? And probably a month each way. And who knows how long for them to check it in the first place... meh. Pretty much the end of actual "working" products for me. They reduced themselves to a (last resort) parts place for me.

Any returns I have had to ship back go to their Miami office.

Looks like I am going to be in the market for a new charger. I currently have two X-tar chargers and on one of them the right bay seems to charge when it wants to - need to replace it.

Any good suggestions on chargers?

I will probably buy it from RTD...

ecig.com has the 2016 version of the Nitecore I2 on sale for $7.75. I ordered one yesterday, $4. 37 shipping. Shipped yesterday. I already have an I2 and an I4, both several years old and working fine. I like the 2 bay for travel.

Diff rated batts would charge at a different rate. However, read the instructions yeerz ago (Yeah I know. Mind boggling) and if memory serves (usually doesn't) Bay 1 & 3 are on the same circuit. Bays 2 & 4 on anudder circuit.
Mine's a 2 bay. And it does it no matter which batteries I put in it. Married or not. I think power goes to one bay first & then on to 2nd bay.

Church & work were both here so living here made sense because Mom was so active in the church.

Howdy folks! I have had a few medical issues over the past 8 months, I'm back!

Wife and I would like to get some new vape gear.

~Mods~
Looking for bang for buck as well as, temp control that works, replaceable battery('s) if possible, Wife has small hands and prefers the color pink, red, or that girly purple color.
40-50 watts is plenty for these daily drivers...

~Tanks ~ (flavor is more important to us than cloud volume)

I would like an RTA that is capable of lung hits, three post deck and easily configured airflow if possible.

Wife loves my old Kanger sub tank mini (rta), and her Kayfun (Ephro) clone you folks helped me pick out. Top fill or easy filling would be nice. This tank also needs to be RTA if possible.

If you know of a great device that does not fit my parameters, speak up, I am more than willing to learn a few new tricks! :)

I missed you folks, its nice to be back! I'm going to enjoy catching up with this thread. Thanks...

Welcome home! Hope that everyone's on the mend.

Not being much into TC, I won't offer suggestions on mods. I'm sure someone will be along. Lots of good devices around, but I don't know how well they do TC.

And I'm pretty much settled on my KFs, all single coil, so no help there either :facepalm:

If she's happy with the KSTs and KFs, why not just get some more of those for her?

Kayfun v5 for Wifey for sure. I have 3 of the Tobecco's. Legs has more + an authentic, & says the clones are better. 4 air settings, from 1 that is similar to the +v2's, to 4 that is very airy. You might like that setting for yourself. Mods, I have no idea what to recommend. I don't do temp. But I do use SS316L in my kf's now.

Hey if you want TC that works get a DNA. Man I am loving them. Like one guy said he has no idea how they did it but they have got TC working so good with any metal including SS the rest of the vapor world is going crazy. How did they do it. With the new Escribe and the service pack that does something to your device it is just awesome. You run the Device Monitor and the temp is almost a perfect straight line. I have become a convert since you been gone. Bad medical issues? You should've called me I'd of come and visited you in the hospital. No kidding though if you want TC that works DNA is the way to go th 75, 133 or the 200. I have 2 75's and one 200 and love all 3. I switched to SS because I thought it might be better on my lungs but just wasn't real happy the way that YiHi vaped with it. So I got a DNA and what a difference. I think my next one will be a 133 cause it uses the 200 board which is probably the best one but the 75 while not being quite as efficient works every bit as well for me. Well Hey Dude it's been a long time got a lot of catching up to do probably 2000 pages. Hope you are better now. How's the weather on that side of town anyway?

Yeah we aren't worried about having tc, just figure if it has it then it would be nice if it works, lol. We love these KF's we both have a few other good tanks but the KF's definitely gets used the most. I use single coils mostly, just want the option to there mainly to entertain myself, lol. I will take a look at the newer Kanger stuff, and KF for sure. Good to see ya!

Kayfun v5 for Wifey for sure. I have 3 of the Tobecco's. Legs has more + an authentic, & says the clones are better. 4 air settings, from 1 that is similar to the +v2's, to 4 that is very airy.

Right on, I knew you would have some good ideas for me. I will look at them Tobecco KF's.
Might have found a Mod for myself just now in the classified forum, if he accepts google wallet then I just have to find a nice little mod for the wife.
Thanks Kenna its great seeing ya!

Oh and definately go with the Kayfun V5 from eciggity made by Tobecco. Like Kenna said pretty hard to beat. I do lung hits also and it's a slightly restricted lung hit but very slightly. Super easy to build single coil only work great with TC which is all I do most of the time. You'd really like them.

Sorry for the three posts, I had something that needed my attention so cut my reply short to you Legs.

I actually bought that renegade kit with the yihi sx350? 330? (whatever). Gave that mod to a close friend of mine and got him off the coffin nails.
Never really used the TC much, but I have a lot of time on my hands now so why not, lol.
I remember a thread this spring where everyone was having a lot of trouble with one of the dna chips, sounded firmware related, so I guess they got it fixed huh.
Asus is known for the same problems, great hardware, but sometimes you have to wait for good firmware. In most cases it is well worth the wait!

I wasn't in the hospital more than about a week, and it looks like I may not have to do chemo, so life is good! I know you would have been there, and I really appreciate having friends like you! The first night in the hospital was like a family reunion, lol. Just have been unable to do much for the past 6-7 months (long story).

Right on legs, I'm going to take a look at the KF's let ya all know what I come up with.

Well I don't think I would get a DNA40. Get a 75 or higher. The price isn't that bad on them. I just got a Therion for $100 a Lavabox 75 for $75 and I know where you can get those for $80 right now. They have one major drawback and that is the screen cover. The VT133 by Hcigar a lot of people think is the best one around you can find those in the states for $98. Why would you want a DNA40 just curious so I can make suggestions. Believe me the DNA200 is fantastic and not because of the power which I don't use I vape at 25w 410F SS316L and TC that you can set up perfectly through Escribe. Escribe is not that difficult to get a handle on either. I love all the adjustments you can make and you have a tutor right here. I don't even think you can use Escribe with a 40
