    My tastes have changed big time since the first years. I regularly vaped 2 cheesecakes that were very tart. In more result years I removed the tartness. Even with that I had to retire one. The other will still squeak though for now. Also custards,cookies,all the bakery stuff was not anywhere on my menu years ago. When I say I don’t like sweet, I’m actually vaping a lot more of it now.

    I only have one EQ and the idea is to use it til it dies and dispose of whatever Pods I have left. That’s a great plan but this skinny little pv refuses to die. LOL

    And I was just thinking I should dig mine out and send it to you.

    Thanks but I’ll pass it up. It does vape good for the skinny little thing it is.

    Some time ago I got on a pod kick and bought that and pods as well as the DV pod and spare pods. I doubt anyone would even want them any more with as good as some of the new pod devices work.

    Is everyone sure the Boxx is protected? I took my Boxx out of service. It has a problem. When taking a draw it cuts out in a couple seconds and the display says low battery. After a couple seconds the display works right again and shows a charged battery. Then when taking another draw it’s a repeat. Impossible to vape like that so I took it apart and letting it sit awhile. It’s no fault of the battery, already tried that.

    Maybe you can offer them free except shipping cost.

    I rinsed out the Boxx tank and got a little baggie for parts so I don’t lose anything. Seems like I’m not having great luck with some of these newer pv’s. Good thing my older ones run great. I have the Boxx sitting upside down and I’m not trying it again til after several days or more. Mark me down to 12 pv’s.

    Hey Kool, I thought about you this morning. The morning news had a doctor on answering questions about people dealing with the after effects of Covid. He mentioned smell therapy and it's success at helping people gets their taste and smell back.
    I agree. I have been doing it since last year. I can smell gasoline and urine now. :) Yeah, my luck right? Taste is barely there but seems a little better!

    I left both of mine sitting for quite a long time with liquid in the tanks and had no leaking or issues with the mods except my black one that hit perfectly on the concrete to ding up the top where the door slides in. I had to take a file to it and smooth it back out.

    I know nothing about the Boxx specifically, but wanted to say; protected mods are only as good as the chip. If the chip is not working properly, you don’t know what you have in your hand. It’s not worth taking a chance. Time to recycle that thing. jmo.

    I have no idea if a leak got in it but if protected it didn’t. Had a little condensation under the tank but I wouldn’t say a leak. The display wasen’t wonky or anything except for telling me the battery was low. I suppose it could be the chip. I have no idea.

    So, you've put that battery in another mod, with the same topper, and it works?

    Or, you've put a known fully charged battery in the Boxx and have the same problem??

    Not at all familiar with that one, but it's common for regulated mods to shut down - temporarily - when the device thinks the battery is too low for the particular resistance on top. And the battery charge indicator bouncing back as the battery recovers is also pretty typical. And, sufficiently low battery could also make the display go nuts. Until the battery recovers.

    Maybe?

    I put the battery in another mod. I should have tried a different one in the Boxx. I’m going to let it sit a few days now that I have it apart. At least there’s some chance it will work with a different battery.

    The Boxx has a Boro tank. You can’t put it on another mod.

    Oh my... this may be the first time I am at a loss for words.


    Half of my Sourcemore order arrived today. They didn't include the two Lost Vape Centaurus squonks in this package. I do have tracking for them though. They're in NY customs.

    Today's package included the Dovpo Riva 200 and 2 Wotofo Recurve v2s. @hittman I am liking the non DNA version a lot. The chip performs very well.

    I wonder why they split the order up. The package that arrived today is the fastest I have ever gotten an order from Sourcemore-- 16 days.

    Actually, it would fit in the pulse I have or another boro device.

    I'm glad you like it. I'm waiting on another Centaurus and a blue thelema solo.

    @FranC I'd contact customer support and get a replacement.....dodgy chip or soldering sounds likely. It's new enough isn't it??

    I'm off to bed....enjoy your day. :wub:
    Not newish, Charlie. Good night.:wub:

    I thought of something else but I don't know why it would matter. The first 2s coil I've used.
