NoiceI'm enjoying my new Merlin. Nice tank and dead simple to build and wick (which is a good thing given how little I know).

14 watts on a triple 18650 DNA200 mod; battery life for days

Another obvious advantage with MTL is less e-liquid consumption. And a greater advantage still with TC.Yup, I got in Monday and am still over half full on the battery meter. The advantages of a MTL tootler. Might only need to charge this thing once a week.
Then again, I have SS wire arriving today for TC, so we'll see how that battery life holds out with a bit more of a challenge.

I'm in real trouble then.. heheWhich is a good thing, because I haven't started DIYing my own juice yet. I do, however, already have a bunch of nic in my freezer as part of my survival plan for the vapocalypse.
You and I both know "well, maybe one more tank" will not be enoughThat's just about the place I'm at now. No more hardware (well, maybe one more tank), just lots of liquid stuff.
LOLEarlier this week I had several packages all delivered by USPS. They didn't fit in the mailbox, and I guess there were too many, so the mailman left them in one of those official milk carton containers on the front porch.
Oh, and another expected today, along with 2 UPS delivery's. But really, I'm trying to cut back. Honest
You dont like the Tugboat? That was my favorite dripper for a couple years I still have it and use it sometimes. I do not drip very often anymore maybe twice a month if that.

Egrip II - New addition to my vape gear.
No, for one, it has no way to lock it. Second, the magnetic insert will flip when you have no battery in... so, you have to essentially take it all apart when you have a new battery. third, the button is "ok".. but not great.
In practical day to day use, the no locking ring can be a serious setback. if you have it in your car, it's safer to lay it on it's side than to stand it upright. one bump when it's upright, and it could fire. if you try to put it in your pocket, you better make sure you have no keys or anything else in there, that will cause it to fire as well.
The Caravella is shorter overall, and has a locking ring. I can put whatever dripper I want on top. The button on the Caravella is much smoother and cleaner. I can push it at an angle and it will still fire, which you have to push around the walls on the tugboat.. the caravella/derringe combo is overall smaller than the tugboat setup, and it has the heat fins between the derringer so it stays cooler.... it's simply a better mod IMO.
Nice kato !!
I have the Merlin too, good vape.. I might have to pick up a Kato if I can find one, I do have one of the only polished Alum El diablo Anubis mods coming but I really like that kato, shinyThanks, I think I'm the only one on this side of the pond who sprang for one....and had to go to Wembley Park to get it, LoL
That's the new 23 mm Merlin rta attached. Nicely surprised at the match!
