Good morning folks.



I have a few high end mods, dna etc. They vape... DNAs are nice, but I don't use them how they are mainly intended. The boost functions are nice to have but I don't really use that either because I prefer them without. Nichrome coils really don't need it anyways.

I do notice a difference in chipsets though. And my favorite chipset is in a very affordable mod, the vaporesso Gen with the axon chip. I think it gives a superior, quick firing rate to some of my other mods. The Tesla's chip are pretty nice too.
I think my Swag 2's have the Axon Chip too, since they are basically mini versions of the Gen. I like the mod fine, I just don't notice a difference in vaping with it over another one.

Do you have the Swag set to pulse mode or wattage mode?

I bought 3 swags 2. Gave away 2 of them as gifts. The one for me is sitting.
Good afternoon in here. Another day of covid in the nursing home.

I'm thinking Anna may have had a crisis situation. From reading her posts (I'm not trying to assume) she was in need of assistance with maybe mental health. Hopefully, she is obtaining the help that is needed.

Yeah the swag uses also axon chip....I don't know tho how much different...the axon chip compared to Omni chip the previous of vaporesso is...I mean could be just the same :p
And as I see even dna boards don't seem to be Soo superior....seems it's more about the software than hardware that makes them superior...
Myself as I newbie I just want my firing times to be fast like 0.4second fire time is a bit annoying that my first vape mod had....and even now vaporesso gen it's not instant but feels like it is so I am fine with that...
This guy djls Vapes on YouTube makes nice reviews checking the voltages and signals...
For example the pulse mode in vaporesso seemed wierd to me..and I saw his video and he shows that the signal it outputs it's the same as eco mode lol
Sooooo anyways some stuff like chip names and stuff are just marketing...
I can't judge cause I don't own many mods I am niewbie but the Gen seems ok for me :D
And considering the technology we have nowdays like in smartphones and everything...vape mods seem they must be simple devices in terms of hardware

I think it was originally set in the pulse or boost mode. Then I changed it to regular wattage mode. I didn't notice a difference. I really haven't used my Swags in a while.

Pulse felt to me underpowered and I use normal mode wattage and after I saw this video explaining how it works I realised it wasn't in my head...it's just a gimmick I guess but ok

    Could very well be. Just hoping she'll be ok.

    These are the legs of my desk, and with 8 total.. maybe it's overkill as they're 2x4s, but I think it'll look nice. 5 more to go, it's a slow process as I only have so many clamps and I need all 8 of them to get the mitered corner as nice as possible while the glue sets.

    I could also use this desk, when completed, as a mixing and rebuilding area. The wife does not like me doing those tasks on the dining room table.

    Some skills there! I never could get into woodworking but I did use those same clamps on my knives when I epoxied the handle scales on.

    My Vandy Vape Requiem RDAs were delivered today. It's supposed to be a Christmas present, but the wife is out of town on business:
    125870814_1296432137416513_253834587255828966_n.jpg


    It's a single coil RDA, really small 22mm, and comes with 3 top caps to choose between DL, DTL, or MTL. I'm trying the DL cap right now and I am impressed at the flavor it gives. I'll try the other caps and see how they are.

    Me too! :D and thanks. But it's fun for me to do this myself, even if right now because of other projects it's slow going. Sure I could go and buy a desk already made, but where's the fun in that? Sure we could go out and buy some premixed juice.. but where's the fun in that? :thumbs:

    Exactly! I wish I was good at wood work, I'd be doing my own. If I posted pictures of the wooden nesting box stands I made last year for the terrapins you all would laugh me right out of the thread. They function but look hideous. Thank God they're in my garage... I am almost embarrassed to open the garage door.

    Uh, yeah that's it!

    When I opened the package today it took me way back to my childhood years. When I use to carefully open all my gifts while my parents were at work, play with them, and then put them back under the tree before they came home.

    I mean that's why the public school system gives you Christmas break, AmIrite?
