Initial impression is, where have you been all my life lol.
Filling the bottle is needless to say, easy.
Gonna be a switch not carrying refill bottles for this one.
The squonk action is dang near effortless, compared to others that is. For example the recurve mod takes effort and holding for a short time to fill the well. Not this one, if I used the same technique on the topside it would come out the dt.

Resistance seems to match other mods as does power.
Buttons are very clicky and easy to feel and find.
It is a bit lighter than the recurve at 305 versus 352g. Loaded with batt btw.

Running a 40t in it so I can compare battery life to others.

I see a blue one in my future.

mods, can we have a "Jealous" button please? A :drool: emoji just isn't quite enough ...
[Only joking, @Hightech Redneck. You guys have guns ;)]

Well a 30 second DR RTA review. It has a few inherent flaws, the biggest being getting the deck screwed back onto the tank. Even with the bottom deck off the mod (a requirement) it can be tough to catch properly. The decks itself locks on to keep lined up with the air slots. More than once I thought I had it properly engaged but nope. At least I caught it before filling.

Thanks for that @Eskie. The DR is on my wish list, but is only available pre-order this side of the pond. And I'm always impatient for shiny :hubba:

I was just guessing. It was the only explanation I could think of. :)


I'm waiting for you guys to fulfill the crash test dummy part first.
Duh. :D
I was going to hold off too but then Mike Vapes had a couple of extras and I thought "what the hell"

Dear credit card company: In follow up to the 8 phone calls and 7 emails you sent me pertaining to the fraudulent charge which posted to my credit card today.... No worries, I was just being a tard and ordering stuff from FastTech ha ha.
I am not kidding, within a millisecond of hitting PLACE ORDER my phone blew up from 800 numbers and emails. I was like what the hell and didn't answer cause 800 numbers are never a good thing.
But thanks Credit Card people for having my back!
Never had that happen before and I order stuff from all over the world regularly, perhaps it's the ole big one in sky telling me to beware....... DOH!
I kinda feel special now YAY

Good thing that happened as I almost ordered 15lbs of juice from Vapewild today. Kinda glad I got sidetracked reading emails. I don't know what the heck I would have done with 15lbs of random juice :toast:

I love it when one of the vape shop scenster kids looks at my vape and goes fanboy on my mod; then he discovers it was the mod one of the other kids wanted. :lol::lol::lol:

The owner of the shop let me know that he is looking at making a stabilized yakisugi burnt wood 21700 squonker and I am on the short list of people who are going to be beta testers because I would appreciate ultra high end custom mods and I have a frame of reference because my other stuff.

I came across a banner on a website that said tommorow - Oct 7th is Chinese new year. Which essentially means the whole country shuts down if Im not mistaken. So ordering from 3fvape and paying for quicker shipping would be pointless I imagine? Anyone have experience or knowledge of how this affects shipping/purchases?

Hopfully that mwans they just push my fasttech package through that shipped thursday /:

Pretentious vape shop scenester kids were the BIGGEST contributing factor keeping me from vaping. I feared people would rope me in with "that" group because I vaped as well.

This shop is great, the owner literally talked me out of buying the Paranormal. He said they blew it powering it with 18650s rather than 20/21700’s and pointed out all of the clashing materials, using high end materials for the sake of using high end materials. He knows I would have been a sure sale, but would rather sell me a better device... he totally sold me on a black asmodus pumper with a black csmnt layer cake rda with a gold ring and OneTip.

If you are over 22, you are safe
Im 28, but most friends say I look 20. Also own a Paranormal but gawdemmit I love it! My thinking with buying it is A. I wont have to buy a new device for years and B. Better build quality and good chip would make it safer/more likely to prevent venting or worse... at least thats what i told myself.. hah

You woulda cried if you heard him break down the flaws, it was quite brutal and true... it was like when I tried buying a Rig mod and he sold me on SOI...

Iam dissapointed that they didnt use bigger cells but I get it. When they started designing it 2 years or so ago the biggest cell that we were using and available was the 18650s. They wouldve had to push back the release and start over. I respectfully decline their are any other issues with it! :lol::lol:Mines been a dream and lasts me all day or longer so Im at least content. I like the build quality a lot more then other mods in the 140$ price range. Its no ferarri but I like it [:

p.s. Im sure their are plwnty of other things with it, but I block all that out! lol
