What button-tops do you usually buy? I need to find some button-tops to replace my old Provari button-tops.

I have purchased an assortment of batteries recommended by Mooch. Lately, I have mostly gotten Sony 25Rs.

They should fit perfect. Pretty sure almost all modern mods are made for flat tops

I don't know why I had it firmly in my mind that I needed button tops for my mods. I appreciate @Heartsdelight for clearing that up for me. She and I have some of the same mods, so if they work for her, they will work for me. :)

I evidently got something in my eye yesterday at work. It was bothering me last night and I flushed it out a few times. It still felt like something was in it this morning so I went to the doctor. He said I must have gotten whatever it was out but my eye had a corneal abrasion. I have to do eye drops three times a day with the prescription.

That’s too bad. I had a corneal abrasion before and it hurts terribly. Hope it heals quickly.

    Thanks. The antibiotic eye drops burn like crazy. Not as bad as the one he put in at the office thought.

    Did you buy the button top or flat top? I bought 4 LG HG2 flat top batteries. It will be the first time I have used flat tops but the fit on the button tops in my Asmodus Lustro and in my Therion 75c is tight, so I hope the flat tops will be better. I want to pick up a few more batteries but figured I would wait for these to arrive to see how they work for me.
    I use nothing but flat-tops these days (and for the past 5 years). I have/had mods made by eLeaf, Sigelei, Joytech, and H-Cigar, and they all use flat-tops. My very first device required a button-top (six years ago); but that was the only one. :)

    It's just not your week. But, hey, we can be eye drop buddies! I'm down to three times a day as of today and will be tapering down to none over the next couple of weeks. Steroid drops sting a bit but less so than antibiotic drops, though (I remember those being the most uncomfortable to administer when I had my cataracts taken care of a few years ago). I hope your eye heals up quickly so you don't have to put up with them for long.

    The prescription is for seven days but if it stops hurting then I’ll probably forget to use them.
    Naughty! That's exactly what you shouldn't do (as I'm sure you already know).

    It's way harder to remember three times a day than more frequent doses. A couple of years ago, I had to put a drop in every hour for a week, followed by a very long taper. As the gap between drops grew, so did the chances of my forgetting a dose. I resorted to a timer.

    Like these? They say that they're button-top. But they sure don't look like it to me!

    As far as I know, only the early Provari need button-top (through the 2.5s). It was designed to be a safety feature before there were other safety features came around.

    Provari, indestructible, but no good without batteries!

    I hadn't really taken the time to do an inventory of my third chefs order until late last week and discovered that I didn't get the 30ml bottle of FC juicy strawberry that I ordered but instead got two 10ml bottles. I have contacted them and they have shipped one 10ml bottle with tracking to make things right. It takes a long time for shipping to get to me but they seem like a pretty good outfit.

    That’s great! But FC Juicy Strawberry?
