DM, Ebelin 100 watteballchen, 100% Viskose, balls are large.. and excellent quality.
So I am one of the people who hold their pinky up :lol:.

The bag is still going strong. Never worrying about wick. I think it might still be enough for like 3 or 4 years. Maybe I should buy another one or 2 or 10 :D

They probably hold their pinky finger out when they vape, like hoity toity types drinking tea :)

All better, now. "Cellucotton - rayon for the masses!"

Heartsdelight is abandoning us common folk, moving to upper class rayon. Pretentious :)

Rewicked the Aromamizer 24. Original wick was still fine, but doing a second no leak wick helps lock in the right build for it. A nice tank :)

:lol: Nah not abandoning you guys just experimenting ^_~
 
Well, thanks to JeremyR and PaulBHC, I've managed to improve my wicks pretty consistently. However, my Subox electronics just fried, for reasons unknown, so I'll be in the market for something new. Hopefully something better, as well; between issues with the 510 pin getting pushed down all the time, and the fact that it fried after only 6 months of use, I'm displeased with this mod. I took it apart to try and diagnose the problem, and was reminded of just how cheaply put together it was. I had my eye on a Kanger Dripbox for awhile, and I love the idea of a squonker, but this experience may have put me off of Kangertech for good...
 
I take it 101vapes is a good company with which to do business? I've heard so many horror stories about ordering vape supplies online, so I'm cautious.

EDIT: The screen on my KBox was dead (a few lighted pixels in the corner), and it fired, but apparently with no control, as it instantly torched the wick. I really just kind of need something to get me through the next month or so until I can buy a newer, bigger mod with more wattage and a bigger RBA deck to play with; I'm starting a new job, so I'm having to budget conservatively. To which end I've heard good things about the eleaf iStick, and the 100W model is on 101vapes for the same price as the KBox; drawback is I would have to buy two new batteries, instead of being able to use the one I already have...

2nd EDIT: Apparently 101vape no longer has any of the Platinums in stock. See if I can find another reliable seller.

My last experience was not good with them and I no longer use them. In the past I've bought a fair amount of gear from them, but you can only judge a vendor when you have a problem and how they handle it.

One item in a large order, the Ego AIO, has the well documented issue of its fire button sticking. This is a cheap $15 device. They wanted me to pay for return shipping. All the other companies I've dealt with have provided either a prepaid envelope, or a printable return shipping label, which makes the process even quicker. So this was more a matter of principle to me, as I wrote them explaining my displeasure with their policy on a defective device, and never heard back.

So into the junk pile, and their loss of my business which has been a heck of a lot more then a lousy $15. That's my opinion, you asked! Good luck.

I generally buy from Vapor Beast, 101vapes, Kidney Puncher and Desert Vapes. All of them usually ship within the same day or next day and it gets here within a few days at most.

I wouldn't buy a dual battery mod unless you know you need more watts. Keeping two batteries married and rotating their position is more that I want to work at.

Innokin are usually good quality and the new Coolfire IV TC 18650 takes a battery instead of a built in lipo.

To be fair, that policy is stated on their shipping page. Always a good idea to check out that stuff before using a vendor.
 
Not to hijack the thread from rayon, but I almost bought a Platinum KBox before a good friend offered me the choice between a TNT 80 with two batteries, or a Jellyfish, either for $40. I only ask in here because y'all have been giving me such good, and quick, input. Thoughts?

May well be, but good business people break policies all the time to keep good customers. It never hurts to negotiate. As you know, in the Vape business the consumer has plenty of other options.
