Hope you picked them up for a good deal...

Bad Stuff
  • Too many dropouts to justify high price
  • Annoying bug shifts music balance to left earbud
  • Case uses MicroUSB
  • Average battery life
  • Frustrating / annoying firmware update system

Dropouts due to what?
I had another set I had to shelve because our WiFi based cordless phone system caused MASSIVE dropouts. You'd think someone was slapping singer on the back or they had the hiccups.

I've got $1000 a month in Child Support.
Don't regret a dime.
Man, this is loaded.

My brother has that and then some and says it's a bargain price for not having to put up with their mother. Guys make jokes about BSC exes, but bro has walked the walk.

Recent update solved all but average battery life (4 is enough for me at any time)
Micro USB, so does my Sennhiesers, my PS4 controller. Not being argumentative, but don't see that as a particular con.

As for updating, just took a bit. No frustration that I saw. Click ok, then wait?

I've forgiven my ex, so I'll let it lie. Took 12 years to get to that point. I now just remember that it's almost done, and I've always had access to the boys.

Steam Crave is supposed to be coming out with a new tank called a GLAZ

Oh that’s exciting! I have 2 Supremes V2, the Aromamizer v1&2 and the RDA which I just got. I love the quality of their gear.

There was a bug that caused audio to shift, although I struggled to reproduce reliably in the unit I tested last week. It would also occasionally drop, although not as often as you'd think, but still aggravating. I may have even seen the source of Trolls post, read a lot of reviews. Lately.

In the end work gives 90 days to return, and since I work at the return center not like I gotta go out of my way. The Bose Soundsport and JBL (forgot it's name) did nearly as well or better at a lower cost. Jaybirds also did well. I just liked the sound from these.

The update fixes the issues as far as I've seen.

I got child support when I got full custody and even after the parental severance. LOL. Sadly it was almost ALL freaking spent ON repairing the ex's child rearing TRAUMA. So it was kind of a wash. Although, after the severance I didn't feel at ALL guilty. I was like, "This is blood money for THREATENING the kid over summer visits he'd send his illegal workers after me and my husband if the kid mentioned his relapse. LOL. I did not feel guilty after that.

Heh, I DID feel bad for letting the ex inadvertently KNOW that the kid requested a name change (first and LAST) because they were HIS family names. He called for an update and I was busy talking about "Wolffe" and my ex was like, "Who is Wolffe."

I wanted to say it was my son's new dog, but it didn't really FIT. The kid never told me he didn't mention it but I FELT AWFUL.

I was like, "Um next time I'm just going to tell the ex that I will mention he wants to know.

Still, glad to have it for all that therapy legal fees, etc. LOL.
It was the ONE good thing I could say to the kid his dad did. Etc. I do say it, but MAN I don't want to get anywhere near the dude, I don't blame the kid even slightly.

You can be a dad or a sperm donor, but trying to do both not so easy. I ALWAYS had my fingers crossed but it just wasn't happening.

Good man. Took some pretty traumatic things, alcohol, and age for me to come to grips with a lot of things.
You're WAY ahead of me.
I spend most of my time just saying.....

Well maybe I should be grateful that Health Cabin never delivered the two I ordered :mad: !

They work with them just fine. I've been messing with mine since I got it this afternoon.....no problems.
Tiny little thing, feels like a toy; lol.
I never had the original Pico, I jumped for the Pico Mega instead.
This thing seems TINY!

My one year vapeversary, the day after my birthday. No, I didn't plan it and I don't even REMEMBER last year's birthday I was so fried from 18 months of pneumonia kind of made everything hazy.

I have not bought anything yet, but the day is young, LOL. I have a tempting offer from a member and today I will probably do that. It's got to be better than buying you know a Yihi chip mod. Etc. LOL.

Anna

I love the Yihi. It’s a lot less finicky than these bleeping 3 DNAs I have. :grr:Sometimes the 2 Therions wont fire ss216L coils in tc mode but will in Watts/Replay mode. The other one will recognize the same RDA coil setup in tc mode but Replay won’t work. The Paranormal usually will fire it in both modes. Pita honestly. The Yihi and every other mod I own will fire the same coil setup in both modes too. Yeah yeah the chips are sensitive blah blah lol! I just want an enjoyable vape experience in whichever mode I choose :w00t:

Ok “rant” over. I went off topic somehow lol :D !! Anyways if you’re going to spend the money buy a Yihi!!

I just can't do Bose........
Too much history.

Time, prayer, time, more time.
Handled it poorly at first but once I managed to get to my knees, standing on my own eventually came.

I had help, some good friends, patient friends. Met a great woman who instilled the worth and self value I lost.

In the first years I lost my mind & self. Self pity, loathing, hate, and anger consumed me. I became a man that felt all and nothing and was willing to visit my irritations on all that crossed me. .... way to live, glad it's over.

I’ve never had a Pico either. I ended up buying a Vaporesso Swag which I think is about the same size as the Pico 25. It’s so small I don’t have an atty that fits it yet lol.

Being able to turn off my emotions is part of my daily routine in my profession.
It really effed up my personal life, had to relearn how to interact with people on a daily basis.

Glad you found your path.

Eightvape has the Pico 21700 kit w/ tank for $29.99.
Just don't tell them I sent you or they might lose your order for a week or two. :)

I think it's a little smaller than the Swag and takes up to 21700 batts.
