fingers crossed for a pleasant experience. another furyan? don't think so. while it feels great in the hand and was great while it worked i prefer the internal gubbins of a mech to be rather easier to access.
Only a Scot or a descendant therefrom would use that term in casual conversation or know what it means.

I have always been wary of buying expensive electronic stuff from fasttech, just because a return shipment has to go back overseas. That said, my Smoant Battlestar is the only mod I've bought from them in the last two years that cost more than $40 US.

I have never returned anything to FT, even if it didn't work properly or wasn't what I expected when I got it.

Morning shinies :)

On day 5 out of 14 of sitting around with my leg in the air :rolleyes:
Ankle isn't too sore - amazing really considering it had a high powered drill attack it ;)

Building another sjmy doggystyle RTA today, so I can go back to 'rotating' - instead of just using 1 atty/mod all day.

@NolaMel and @stols001 - a new doggy contender is at fasttech. The Fumytech mtl gotank v2. Apparently it's really really airy, good flavour, same size as the doggy AND topfill. I'm tossing up over that or an intake
The pictures show two different types of screws on the deck... hope it’s not the hex screw one.

they have a place in Florida to send returns. Been there, done that. I think it was a Vamo. Years ago

    I'm allergic to hex screws ;) There's a couple of guinea pigs from the doggy thread who've ordered it - waiting on their feedback.

    How's your family doing?

    Ugh, I just spent an hour working on both my Ares! SO futile, the only thing I accomplished was like, stabbing myself repeatedly with a screwdriver, that and under one of my nail beds. That one BLED dude.

    It's so annoying, they both... Like one, the entire post and insulator has lifted off the deck. The other one it's just the metal part, like, the insulator is still stuck to the mod. It's just annoying, it seems like something that would just "click" in there and it does, for a moment, but then you coil it and well I got one wavering resistance of like 0.3--1.3 I think I'm done with these.

    After yoga, I'm going to dig out my receipts, (if I can, I had this paranoid spate of like, deleting emails frantically one evening when halfway through the jail process, and well, those receipts may be gone. Don't ask, I think I was semi psychotic, but like, I'm emailing Innoken, anyway.

    I feel like there should just be one nifty trick and then it should be over, but I think they're just broken. HOW I could BREAK something just by touching it, very lightly remains mysterious.

    Even the Ego one tanks weren't this mysterious.

    I'd like to offer my condolences for your finger injury in the form of this chinchilla wearing a tiny sweater.

    I hope this will suffice.

    It was pretty good. My finger still hurts. Of course, all of me still hurts, and I am going to deliberately reinjure myself again by Yoga Day 4. I had a really good 9 year streak going, I have no idea why I stopped. General aimlessness I guess....

    Yeah, well, I'm paying for it now. Actually my stabbed finger hurts quite a bit less than the rest of me.

    LOL, silver linings.

    I believe The Divinyls wrote a song about mech mod maintenance, too.
    How about one on vaping. ......... Vape and vape all day have to mix,mix mix. Build,build,build vape,build,mix check out the hook while troll revolves it. ,....... I did watch the vanilla ice project last night. I better keep my day job.

    The Freemax mesh landed. Started out with the dual mesh coil. Prime and a short break in with a juice I already know from an Engine 2, Johnny Applevapes Frenchman Delight and WOW.

    I'm at 57W, below the 60-90W rating ( big surprise, it's always like that with drop in coils for me) and damn if that's not great flavor. A large amount of air, and a ton of flavor on a fresh coil. This can compete with an RTA. Now we'll see how long a coil can last giving that kind of flavor. But this is still really impressive. I have a feeling the triple will be overkill for me on air. It'll be interesting to see how the SS does in TC. That's a single mesh so the airflow should be lower. Maybe. But this is good.

    The Vaporesso Luxe will be released soon. It has a 2” touch screen using the highly regarded Omni 4.0 chip and really fast firing. Not sure I’m crazy about the color options. And I definitely don’t want another drop in coil tank to gather dust so if I get it I’ll wait until the mod only is available and checking out reviews.

    An edge to edge touch screen? I thought these were new mods, not new cellphones.

    I had to stop vaping that mesh pro. Either it's hyperventolation from allthat air or too much nic or both, but man did it make me lightheaded.

    Interesting comparing the same juice side by side, it's way sweeter on the mesh pro than the Engine. Almost too much flavor. The flavor is more refined on the Engine 2 but the mesh is probably the best drop in I've ever tried and it's not just a cloud chucker, although it's enough to fog out a medium sized room with some chain vaping.

    Man my finger doesn't hurt anymore. I emailed Innoken we shall see.

    That's because I just did yoga day 4, which I forgot what it was like (I always do). It's like.... it's like your body has given up on the whole endorphin thing because it's like, "I was trying to help you because I thought you were running from a wild BEAR! But, what I was doing clearly wasn't helping, because I'm sure the bear is tired by now, so I'm going to prevent you from feeling good because I've figured out what this is, and I'm not REWARDING you for it, dude, you are clearly nuts." There's kind of a side order of weird trippy stuff too, like the air wavers and whatnot and it all takes forever and it's just not good at all."

    I'm GLAD I forget it every time because my yoga practice would have ended on day 3 of my first class, and that was decades ago.

    Great! My daughter is finally on the mend (knock on wood). I love snuggling my granddaughter, but it’s great to be back home.
    Please update us with their thoughts on it. I’m leaving the tab open until I find out one way or the other. I could use another 22mm tank ( that’s my excuse, leave me to my delusions of “need” ;))

    I had to drop my nic down to drip mg. Between more air and nic my head was swimming in 3 hits. I'm pretty sure I could use 0nic and not miss the nic with these coils.

    I might have to. These have an amazing kick. I think the future of drop in coils for DL will be these mesh/strip style coils. I have a feeling the "strip" with a bit more metal and larger "holes" will be better as less likely to gunk than a fine piece of mesh. But we'll see how it holds up.
