You people are enablers. :D I just bought a Solo at the great price with free shipping from the link that @rosesense posted. I got the red/blue because it looks more pink/purple than red/blue in the photos. I don't know if I will love it but the price is right and it will be great with my rainbow RTAs.

PS - I HATED the original Zeus but I really like the Zeus X. Once I figured out the wicking, the flavor is excellent!
I LOVE my solos! What did you not like about the original Zeus that the X made better? I can’t keep up with what af everyone likes, so if you could include that it would help

The original Zeus and I just didn't get along. It was probably me but I couldn't ever really get it right. I am sorry I can't be more specific because I bought two when they first came out and ended up giving both away a LONG time ago. The X is really nice and has great flavor for top AF rta. I haven't tried it with a single coil and no doubt, a single coil rta would be better with a single battery mod, so I will have to look around. I rather like the Intake though it is tricky to get the wicking right on that one. It took quite a bit of practice to nail it but I finally did.

I’ve had on/off successes with the Intake. Glad to know it’s not just me. I put it in the “use if every other tank breaks” box lol. I only do single coil, but I’m always interested in a new tank.

It is a tricky one to learn to place the coil and to wick. I seriously practiced for two full days, trying different coils, heights, and wicking. It shouldn't take that long to learn to coil and wick an RTA if you have experience but this one is definitely not the easiest RTA to get right I finally got a build that is perfect for me so you should take it out of the "use if every other tank breaks" box. :D It is worth the trouble, IMHO. The Intake is the only tank I use on my stabwood Thor mods.

If you have one in Rainbow, I would cheerfully take it off your hands. :)

I think mine is either silver or gunmetal. If I can find it, you can have it. :) I have dozens of rtas... but the two that perplexed me the most are the Intake and the true... two people said were easy peasy. I had immediate success with others, but not those! Nice that we have plenty of choices, and people to share our oops with ;)

    It’s nice, but just not enough air, even with the lower ohm coils. I really wanted to like it, because it’s so small. Perfect for going out. Honestly, if I kept one it would be the Flint. But mainly because I can put a different tank on it. Maybe I’ve just gotten too picky in my old age. The zBiip is great, uses the zenith coils I like, but it’s as heavy as a larger mod. It might work for you, men’s pants are a little more mod friendly than ours.
    I just took a look at a frenzy. Don’t care much for the look.I’ve gotten picky in my old age too:lol:

    Sorry, that was off topic... but stupid people (vape shop owners) just get to me sometimes.

    Back on topic!!! Has anyone used molinberry Pink Lady?
    You forget there is no off topic here.

    I thought I had the Pink Lady but maybe not.Will have to check most recent orders.

    I do, too! I love them even more since I've filled 3 of them with 3 different eliquids and just put the little silicone covers back on them. I swap them out really easily & quickly. Taking 1 Minifit and them with me...sure makes my purse lighter, too, on quick trips into town. :)



    Besides Shinyitis, buying multiples of favorite mods, kits, tanks, RBAs, etc. is another very contagious thing on ECF. I've got a bad case of it myself. Not fessing up to anyone any more, about how many Berserkers, Zeniths, boxes & bricks of coils, nor mods and kits that I've got. I've already told a few people about the mods and kits though, and they better keep Mum about it. Although, even that number has changed in the last 24 hours. :D

    ETA: I'm not just buying for myself though. I've got some put back for a relative, a couple local friends, etc. who know I'll always have a variety of vaping gear if/when they need it.
    That’s a good idea on the pods

    Good morning random folks :) Have you any plans today?

    I had my new cheesecake in a Zenith and had an empty tank. I want to save to rest of the mix for vacation so I filled it with White Raspberry Cheesecake.Not quite fully steeped but still yummy. Glad I went with a 30ml mix.I really should mix a 30ml of my new Strawberry Cheesecake also.:)

    My coworkers are fishing with a rod and reel for fun on the river and I'm headed home to maybe go sleep a bit more, but hard to do that when I've already drank like 4 cups of coffee and was already amped to work.

    Good morning, rose :) Anything on your radar today?

    I have to do a bunch of cleaning and putting away all this gear I dragged out to organize/label. I have a notary coming on Monday to sign papers to fix the deed on the place in KY that the title co messed up. I really have to sell that place asap.

    I do plan to add flavor to my cheesecake mixes and mix up a clone of DL Lemon Tart.
