i think we broke him, so that means we need to work him twice as hard now. lololol poor poor daniel.

No no no......breaking Daniels means 70 years bad luck!! I don't think I've ever told y'all this.......but my son's name is Daniel, so everytime I get a ship email it just says daniel, and for a second I wonder why my son is emailing me about got vapes stuff.

His best friend's name is Chris, and he lived with us for awhile and always called me mama too. So I basically got two boys name Chris and Daniel. Chris of course, is the trouble maker....not that there's any correlation here :D

Bonny.......I'm so sorry honey!!!

I am sorry for your Loss Bonny!

I have a lot to put up for Review but I will make this quick.

USB Pass Though:
I love this little thing. I love it so much I bought 2 of those CAR USB adapters so I can always have it there. The ability to change the voltage is easy to do and works great. However, I think it could use a little more length to it. In my hands it is so tiny I "feel like I am gonna break this damn thing" (MiB Quote) Other then that no complaints, works great and I like it alot.

VV Rocket:
Well, I like it mostly, but find myself going back to my provari. It just feels "too light" for my preference. I want something that if I need to use it as a weapon in a fight I can... JK! Seriously though it is un-balanced and with a little mama tank on it its super top heavy. The recessed 510 connector seems to make everything I put on it a tighter draw then any of my other mods. This IS a plus for me which I like, I just wish I could like it more. Also cosmetically I got a silver one and the paint was not done well as black is showing though on some of the parts. As far as taking a hit.... my cat decided to knock it off my 2nd story balcony and it fell about 25 ft to the (carpeted) stairs below. No Marks, Still works BUT the cap is cracked. Not an issue YET but I am sure it will be as it is used. Will probably super glue it before it stress breaks. I know to keep costs down it is made of plastic but if it could be made of metal at all I would love it so much more. The Voltage adjustment I do like a lot more then my ProVari as it is super fast and doesn't have to fire the device to make the change.

Scorpion Tank:

Got 2 of these.... Not working well for me. Lots of Dry Burn going to try the suggestions listed earlier. Maybe it will save it but not sure. I have NEVER had good luck with any kind of clearomizer setup. With the exception of the Vivi.

Vivi Nova Mini:
NOT ALPHA - OBVIOUSLY BUT I gotta say compared to it's big brother it is just a weeee bit better tasting and vapor production. The draw is tighter like I mentioned earlier is good for me. The size is awesome and should be perfect for my new telescoping mod that will be coming later this month.

I love mine, too. Haven't touched my Twist or my iPro since I got it. Right now, I have a sleeved Phoenix 3ML on it - looks kinda like a python swallowing a mouse, but it works great!

Yeah I want to get another but being in ALPHA the Mods are starting to stack up already. I have been in ALPHA a week now haha. But it's great to have a new hobby. Before you ask... I did NOT replace smoking with Vaping as I never smoked. Picked it up to help my Fiancee' help quit and she is doing great with it. So I am testing this stuff and she gets to use it too. But right now she is happy with a 6V on a DCT at 1.5 OHM.... Which I think is like 14 Watts.... :ohmy: but she loves it. I on the other hand use it as an e-hooka and love to do it while gaming and the FLAVORS they are EVERYWHERE! Currently on a sugarcookie and pixie stick. I love the candies they are nice!

Just out of curiosity, what's wrong with 650? Isn't that the number that shows how long the charge lasts?

If I'm on the road, I'll get maybe a couple of hours off a 650 mah. But the other thing is that no matter what size it is, they seem to have about the same number of charges before failure, larger batteries mean fewer charges.

This is my vape case. I take it with me most places if I am going to be away from home more then a few hours. The boys at work love me. If they break something, I can get them back into the vapor in no time!

Heres mine:

Hi guys! Just got home from business trip to vapemail! Yay!

Elipse...good flavor and vapor without breaking in. Surprisingly small and light. This is going to be my preferred purse-sized vape I think. I can't imagine much battery life in something this light??? We'll see.

Also trying my mini-Vivi. I like the size and I seem to be getting better vapor than my full-size Vivi (maybe I need new heads...) Flavor I can't tell yet...not great, but it may need to break in. I am also trying a brand-new flavor in this one so maybe this flavor is just not my favorite. I think I will switch on one of my favorites and see if that is it.

Pink twists are the prettiest batteries I own! I also bought one for a friend's birthday...she is going to LOVE it!

well it depends, when we drop the lavatooth 2.0 we will see if we make it bunny tooth tipped or not, plus the it all depends how much coil we use to get the proper resistance, we could essentialy replace his teeth with coil and wick to make them white, attach a battery to his neck and hes good to go, we wrap a little curly driptip that loops around his ear and your set for full on vaping.

then once we have his teeth removed we can coil each one then add a 510 connection and somehow install a tank on them.lol

The Lavatooth :) I love it.

this gives me some ideas as the wife wants me to clean up the wetbar area. I just hope you don't take that case on the road with you. If a cop saw that, you'd end up in jail.

This little case is nice, I got it for like 9 bucks at sears. What I like is that it doesn't have the hinged top drawer (those are often kind of hinky dinky), instead when you open it, you put the handle out and it functions like a leg and you can put the top thingy nestled into the lid.

And of course I travel with this :confused: there isn't a thing in there that is illegal, all needles are blunted, all bottles are labeled. Plus I'm my car has lots of tools in it, so one more craftsman case more or less isn't even noticeable.

Just got a Silver VV Rocket..
I think it's DOA. I have to shake it for it to sorta light up, but it won't stay on.
Bad wiring?
Any recommendations or hacks to get it working?

Just in case you didn't already know... the batteries typically don't come fully charged... so charge them first.

These also have protection firmware that won't let them work if the carto is shorted out... so try a different one just in case.

Hopefully it will just be one of the above...

Also, you might need to stretch the bottom spring just a bit. Good luck!
