Hi there everybody!

@Debadoo
That so reminds me of this video. Your friend may get a chuckle out of it. 4 Stages of vaping...



Have been busy with DIY. Made up some cinnamon danish (Capella), tiramisu (FA), key lime (TPA), pear (TPA) and lemon merangue pie (Capella). They're all tasty enough to keep vaping. Do ya think maybe the fact that they cost $2 an oz instead of $15 or $20 is what makes them even more satisfying to me?!?

Happy to see that you're all being your typical kind, wonderful selves. Carry on!

Sweet dreams. :)


It's been ages since I watched that video. It is so true!!

Good morning all! :)

Here's another one. I'm pretty sure that you can use it while it's charging, as long as the battery isn't completely drained.

KGO V.V. 650mAh

I really liked the regular 1100mAH KGOs that I had. I think I would consider one of these as a backup to my Twists. At least I know that Brent at Hoosier stands behind what he sells. I think there is a 30 day warranty, but would have to double check with him.

It would be amazing to get a 1 year warranty on anything like a Twist. Not sure how somebody would stay in biz doing that. :blink:

The Kgo version is the one I will probably get being as I know SLB makes good batteries. I don't know who makes Apollo's but it may be SLB as well.

Whoot! Whoot! I got shipping notice from Provape - my mini's on its way home. I must say turn-around time on the repair is superb. I mailed it from PA on Friday afternoon to WA and this afternoon it was shipped back to me.

Say - anyone know where the good prices are currently, for a black VV Gripper?

I second that Iffy. The Gripper is my favorite right now and the one I grab when I go out the door. I'm jealous I only have two. I should have bought another when they were in sale for 35.00. The only negative thing about them is they break fairly easy when dropped on to a hard surface and why I wanted more than one.:)

I got 2 Gripper. His and hers. LOL They work really well. Just as good as my big vv's.

Iffy - S&S Mods is Chopper here on ECF. He's a one man shop making a pretty good genisis style atty. I just might pull the trigger and get a Gripper from him. Price a couple $ less than other places and has free shipping.

Does the gripper use flat top or button top 18650's.

Both types work but the length is critical. 18650 Aw IMR or standard Panasonics work perfect.

I have some flat tops 18650's for my LT (v1) - any idea if they are the right length? Or maybe I'll just get some AW IMR button tops, then I can use them in the Provari's and the Gripper.

I'm sure they should work. The only ones that haven't worked are the modified Panny batteries and protected Li-on.

Well - I've joined the gripper club. Pulled the trigger at Madvapes (got 10% off w/ coupon, and I didn't realize I had award points credit of a few more bucks toward it, that was a nice surprise). :toast:

Thanks Tex for the feedback on the batts. I'll probably get some IMR AW 18650's. I don't have any big batts for the Provari's so these would work for them and the gripper. With only 2 18650's now, I could use some more. I've got a slew of 18490's & 18350's as that's what I use the most.
