Thankful Mr. Google was awake....

Hybrids don't have 510 THREADS. They have dedicated atomizers that do not have 510 connections.
The atomizer connects to the body of the tube.

Some people incorrectly call direct to battery mods hybrids.

The direct to battery 510 connection was first introduced as a "Hybrid Look" adapter.
Uninformed vapers dropped the word "look" and incorrectly called them hybrids. This confuses new vapers.

We call them direct-to-batery mods.

Good morning shiny folk. No packages for over a week. I'm feeling I have little to contribute this morning. I'm not jonesing-- exactly. But, I am considering building the doggy style if I find time, and my weary muscles allow. Srsly even my neck hurts (stupid headstands) so if I get antsy, I will pull that sucker out and attempt to build it, a nice distraction until I put myself through the yoga wringer again.

This never used to be so hard, getting older sucks. Happy shiny Friday everyone and I hope all vapemail arrives in a timely fashion.

Begnets, man, everywhere the French colonized, the food is epic LOL. There is little better than Vietnamese iced coffee, for example.

I am demonstrating amazing degrees of patience and discipline right now.

I want a reasonably priced regulated squonker that does TC right. The GBox and the Aegis share the same chip, which means the GBox's TC model is as bad as the Aegis'. Which are collectively almost as bad as Smok. Which means I would be frustrated by the GBox and be right back out there in a few weeks.
I find the Aegis with the latest firmware V1.24 (lockable resistance) has a very decent TC, similar to the TC on the Minikin V2. Have you installed that firmware on yours?

Nothing can touch DNA or YiHi (TOTL models) for TC performance, with other devices one has to lower the bar a little. ;)

Smok & iJoy have absolutely no idea what TC is, or how it is supposed to function.

Big Vapemail day today...As long as the mailman does his part o_O

Dreamer mod coming in to pair with the Lucid RDA.. First true Hybrid mod.. Cartel was a Mech..If i don't have the two mixed up:confused:... atty direct to battery in the Dreamer
The VA Phenom/Prodigy you were asking about is a true hybrid. The Rig/Roughneck is also, so is the Nemi/Dome. All of those are great because they can be converted back to 510 if you want to change the atty. You can check if they make a hybrid atty for that one though. a true hybrid has no 510. I.believe you got a faux hybrid. A very nice one I might add.

Hybrid attys are dedicated to the mod they are paired with and can't be used on other devices. I was searching for old Genesis hybrids. I wanted a collector piece. They were too expensive for something that will sit on display and look pretty. You are IMO better off with the setup you have. Just be mindful of the center pin.

I like that you have an option of vertical or horizontal coils on that one.

Dont have an Aegis. Thought about it... had it on a list but chose something else every time.

very manly mod you have there.:)

Do ya think? I think it’s kinda classy looking. It also came with black carbon fiber panels which could make it more “manly” I guess.

Honestly it’s just like Therion 75C except for the Replay feature which I haven’t even tried yet.
