yeah me either, I tend to like dual coils that net 1.3 ohms. But they're cheaper than the aw imr's and everyone seems to like em for the woodvils, so figgered I'd try em
Heck a 1.3 ohm coil only draws about 3.3 amps or so.

ok so it is the HG2 not the HE2 good deal. Thought I would give them a shot since you all like them instead of my Samsung 25Rs
They are the HG2's and they are almost non existent probably for another 3 weeks or so. Like I was saying Illumn.com has the VTC5's on sale for $6.50 heard they are dated April 2015 should be good for quite awhile if he still has some..

So, it was on sale for $29.95... :D
I wish.
He was vapin on a dicodes mod that sells for round a 250 pounds (currency not weight) mod and about the same for the EVL Reaper atty.

edit: just did some maths.
It will take me at least 2 years to spend as much on vaping as that rig costs.

Come on now ... you could do it in less than 2 minutes ... just need to make the commitment and 'do it'. :laugh:

Mike, maybe he needs a demonstration - go for it and let us know how it turns out - hurry before Janet reads this... :p

yeah, don't need that much power, that's why my 3.5 yr old 10 amp pannies work just fine, but may as well get a couple since they're cheaper than the aw imr's I want for the grand.

Lets see now do I buy expensive vape stuff or do I stay warm and eat for the next month? AND buy some cheap but perfectly functional vape stuff?
Hmmm...
Even If I was well heeled I have no interest in the pricey stuff just for status. Never did.
My first new car was a Toyota. I could have afforded a Corvette (was still single and a great job).
But I am just a blue jeans and Kbox mini kind of guy. Well I mostly wear Dickies Kahki slacks now. Just pulled out the flannel lined ones for the winter.
I am for function and comfort. I do get a kick out of the ones who must compete in the pricey area though.
Let them spend 3,000 for the latest and greatest TV. Me I wait a year and get a better one for less than 1/2 what they paid.

Yep buy good batteries they usually cost no more then the mediocre ones if you look around. Then when you buy that $400 Dicodes Mod you will have good batteries for it.

Yeah I need a porchers report on the Dicode and EVL titanium RTA. Which is bottom fill and adjust airflow with a screw btw.

Besides there is a big waiting list for people to part with their money for those devices. Exclusivity is part of the allure I suppose.

will never happen, I'm like you function and comfort. I'll spend more for quality over junk, but I have no interest in status symbols and never have.
sides which, I'm so happy with my REOs and derringer clone that I can't even think straight. All the issues with tanks and this mod and that mod that everyone's been having.....so glad I'm not going through all that. Every 4 days or so, slide cotton out, dryburn, slide some cotton back in.......squonk & vape. Jup, I'm a happy vape camper!!

Same with me on my Subtank Minis. Simple quality tanks that just work well.

Update on the "amazing sale" shipment...

Postal Product[emoji14]riority Mail 3-Day™ Features:USPS Tracking™ Up to $50 insurance included

DATE & TIME STATUS OF ITEM LOCATION
January 4, 2016 , 5:30 pm
Shipment Picked Up
EVANSVILLE, IN 47715

So... nuttin's happenin.
I had to call USPS to open an investigation into where one of my packages is. The last tracking update I got says it left N. Houston depot at 10am on the 6th, which means it should have hit my PO about noon & been in my box by late afternoon or the next morning. No word since it left N. Houston. It's the one juice I still buy, & I only have to get it every 3 months or so. Still have more packages in route.

I'm laughing now because he's even debating it. Legs, DOOOOO IIIIT!
I think he said he did with his credit they gave him, but I might be wrong, cuz I've gotten lost with all the names of different things. Forget what he wanted to begin with :lol:

Yeah when I went to order the HG2s they said out of stock so I grabbed another pair of Samsung 25Rs. Will do the HG2s next time around.

I think I found my Kayfun problem!!! I decided to build the other I received. While installing the coil, I noticed the hole in the deck. Pulled the coil off the other - no air flow hole!!!!!!!!!! I have submitted a ticket to Vapor Bank, hopefully they will replace it. If not, I will be hitting one of you guys up to send it to you so you could maybe drill it out..... The other V4 works just fine!

Yeah Kenna I feel your pain. I've been waiting on a Cloupor Mini Plus 50W TC that I ordered from FT on 12/12. The last sighting was on 12/27. Guess if it hasn't shown any status update by Monday I'll be firing up usps for clues on what's up.
But like the song says 'the waiting is the hardest part'.
Good Luck
