    Wow. If there's one thing about this group I have learned, you people do not take sarcasm/humor well...at all. Did you not read my post after that about a guy who douses our house twice a year for insects? Not to mention all my posts about eradicating North America's squirrel population? :confused:

    Guess I'll be the one who refrains from posting anything other then the daze, "Most Valuable Metal." I can't say anything about killing nuisance rodents and I can't say anything about saving them. I. Just. Can't. Win. :unsure:

    EDIT: @rosesense I would like to add that I am genuinely sorry you took me wrong. :blush:

    No problem, I enjoy your music vids and other stuff. I hate to kill anything (even fire ants, sigh) so I am a bit sensitive about that subject. Carry on....

    Second Wives TOO

    What about first wives? And third?

    I enjoy both tubes and boxes. Don't think I could ever settle on strictly one or the other. I semi-tried and just go back and forth. MAYBE tubes because well, the analogs I gave up for the tubes were round in the hand ... and boxes because well, they're more stable when just weirding around and out and about like at a bar or something.

    Someone tried to rob my wife of her Radius when she sat it down while eating in public. Rather brazen, but my wife went all ninja. I am proud of her.


    Actually, she knows that I would have shot her if she let something like that happen.

    Still proud that she got physical with the perp.

    I still like my tubes and use them at home, but for carrying to work not so much. The mini would fit in a shirt pocket, but kept slipping out, then the batteries would not last. With a 18650 it looked like I had a sex toy in my pocket, so the Radius really fit the bill. Today I carry the Dicodes Dani mini, mainly because I don't want to risk loosing, damaging, or wearing out my Radius's. Plus the Dicodes is still on the market, and they sell replacement boards and screens for them. :|

    Does the Dicodes need to sell spare boards and screens?

    I know that they sell them separately, but need? I think they mainly sell them to people who are Mod makers, but I can also order one if I wish to. I have never heard of anyone needing to replace them, but nice to know I can if I need to down the road. The Dicodes come with a 2 year warranty, and I have had mine for 8 months, (I think) with no issues. I have been thinking about ordering a few just in case they need replacement, after the warranty is up. :|

    I keep looking at a Dani Mini and Dani Extreme V3 to cover both box and tube ... and keep talking myself out of spending $600 when I vape just fine on the dozen or two mods I already have and only EVER use power mode. Maybe some day ... 2037 sounds about right.

    Most people who kill animals for use don't enjoy it. My son only ever killed one rabbit (he was about7 with his BB gun) and said it tasted "sad." He hasn't killed a beast since, and like, I hope it wasn't my COOKING.

    But yea, the only animals you can feel the Smallest Bit of pleasure in are vermin.

    I mean once the pack rat was dead, I was a bit sad even. Although the Jolly Rancher Anna/Packrat situation couldn't CONTINUE I sort of admired his cunning.

    Vermin (I include squirrels, but only if in my room with no way out) there's no need to feel sad.

    I will say, snakes, scorpions and squirrels. They're my holy trinity. Maybe roaches.

    After all these Provari mods, I was thinking of a Dicodes No. 6. Somewhere vicinity the year 2037.

    Had me nervous there for a minute. (Whew!)

    Don't get me wrong I still, love my Provari's. I just want to still have them in working condition for a long time. I looked at the Number 6 after you mentioned it a while back, and it has the BF60 board, which is their older board. They still have them at CDV, I kind of think they are phasing out the BF60, I have not seen a number 6 with the BF80 in it. :|

    Yes, I don't prefer a "wand". Although I do have a 3.0, I still like the Radius. Just not as tall, I suppose.

    Happy vaping to all, whatever is used.
    I had 4 Radius's, sold them. I got more drinks with a tube in my pocket.:nun:

    I'm a lefty and the No. 6 looks like it was made for righties ... so that was straight off a deal breaker for me. Why their design and marketing crew chose to made a mod that way, and exclude 10% of market share, I'll never understand.

    I'm left handed also but for some reason vape with my right hand. As long as I've had my No 6 I never thought about the shape.

    So I just tried using it in my left hand. Still works great, that rounded back is tremendous as the curve fits perfectly between my thumb and hand; the buttons are still right where you'd want them to be. The big difference is that it isn't 100% form fitting like the right hand grip, where every mm of the surface is effortlessly contacting your hand. Left hand usage has the area between the crotch of your thumb and the front of the mod being slightly away from your hand in spots. Not a big amount, but not the total fit either.

    So, yes, there's a difference. But even using it left handed it's still more comfortable than almost every other mod I own - and light years ahead of the standard rectangular box mod.

    I swear I'm not in a buying mood, but now that they seem to be the least expensive of any Dicodes it tempts me a lot.
