Shinyitis Support Group

[jfcooley]

Ok, serious question time... This weekend, should I buy a PS4 or a new set up? I just joined a very, very, dangerous Facebook group called HEAT; I think this group will be the end of me...

PS, if I end up homeless next month, anybody got a couch I could crash on?

PS4, God of War.

I joined some audiophile nonsense for a day on FB. "Audiophiles on a budget" and "Home Theaters for everyone".

Neither were as advertised.

Morning all.

Ah.. the shinyitis thread... This is where I should have posted my question. Where should I spend my tax refund and on what should I spend it on. Getting back into vaping after a 3 year hiatus. I know nothing anymore. I already bought 2 mods, but I only have one tank. Crown U well III. I need another tank. Or rather, a third because I have the Smok TV 8 or whatever too, but it’s tiny and the wrong color to match the new mod I bought.

I have the capability to build, though I’m woefully out of practice. I suppose since I have two lazy change the coils tanks, can you guys recommend one I’d have an easy time building on? One that would look pretty on a Lost Vapor Paranormal?

You're in the right place.

Very versatile tank here.

CoilArt Azeroth RTA

Not the easiest--postless decks can be a challenge the first go-round.

Uwell Ironfist 200W Mod Only

Asmodus Minikin Boost 155W Mod

Narrowed it down to one of these. Kind of like the shape of the ironfist better, looks more comfortable to hold. Both seem to have decent reviews and would do the job ( which of course is important) but I’m not finding anything that’s perfect aesthetically.

Know what? I think I’ll stick to lazy change the coil sub ohm tanks because I need to be honest with myself. I have a cabinet full of RTA’s that are collecting dust including the erlkonigen which someone here told me is still one of the easiest to build on. Genuine $$$ one too, and I am not using it. May actually give it away in the PIF Treasure chest because it’s sad it’s just sitting there. So now I need to know what the best sub ohm tanks are. Right now, I’m running down the various Best Tank lists on various sites and am basically throwing anything that appears on two or more lists in my cart. I’m going to blow so much money...

I don’t know if my current picks are all that popular with others, but I have a Sense Herakles III, and Vaporesso Veco and NRG. I like big fat air, and these three deliver. The veco is the smaller of the bunch, so it does need to be refilled often, but the coils last and there are quite a few options. I prefer the ceramic, but the traditional ones are good too.

I am curious about ceramic coils... I have the Fireluke mesh, Horizon and Uwell valerian in my cart right now. I am current using the Crown Uwell III

The difference I notice is no cotton taste during the break in. The veco coils are relatively small though. Not sure if there would be more pros or cons with the larger ones. I have some on order though, so I’ll post when I have an opinion on them.

Just ordered the three in my cart. Didn’t get the vapresso as that one wasn’t available at the site I was on. Maybe next go around. Heard good things about the Cascade, but I don’t think that one comes with ceramic? Just noticed my that state refund dropped to join the federal, so now I’ve got even MORE money to burn. Everything seems so much cheaper then it was back when I vaped in 2014 ish... I think I’ll hit up the mall to buy a new purse for myself for mother’s day and spoil my brats as well.

Well the 2 I joined was a Bose bash fest and the other definitely meant everybody who has a 6-7 figure income.

I have nice stuff, but I'm no snob. Actually helping a co-worker build his system.

I think you’re right, I don’t think there are ceramic for the Cascade. It wouldn’t be a deal breaker for me though. And I agree, the better stuff is cheaper now than it once was. Although there is still plenty in the pricey shiny category.

Family day. Somehow I managed to get 2 teenagers to come along. They think I'm uncool and nerdy. I know otherwise...

What’s in then pricey shiny category these days? I see a lot of US based manufacturers closed doors? Provari is gone. They didn’t meet my power needs anymore, but it’s sad to see them gone. Give me the name of a very pretty mod. Already have a Lost Vape Paranormal on the way.

I’ve got one who will be a teen in August. I don’t think I’m totally uncool yet but it’s coming.

The pricy high end brands I have been looking out for on the trading boards have been: Limelight, Attysmith, Armor, Hussar, ESG and Dicodes. They range $80 to $150 for attys and $150 to $500 for mods.

Armor with a ESG Skyfall

Dicodes Dani Extreme 3 with ESG Skyline.

DotSquonk with AllianceTech Titanium 22mm le

elThunder with AlianceTech 24mm Tank

More interested in regulated mods then mech mods this go around. Ran across the viscious ant site, but that may be TOO much. Pretty stuff though. I like the wood stuff
