There isn't a more appropriate use for the word hideous.
No, that would be this one...

i nearly bought a smok mag grip the other day but only because it looks like a phaser...
i actually have smok to thank for me sticking to vaping. first mod was an alien. didn't miss a beat PIF 6 months ago.
The 510 is press fit on the Mag just so you know. The little washer with the ground wire eventually becomes loose and it stops reading resistance.

Doesn't sound good at all. Sorry to hear that. I'd consider sending it in (they do have lifetime warranty) and they should do the switch upgrade for free as well (no more 'wire' connector). However, I'll note that mine went from a fairly firm button (my preference) to a pretty soft button press.

I will say the original switch design was unfortunate (and the upgrade is still needlessly complex) and the 510 is a pain for cleaning (I feel similarly about cleaning my Furyan). I still do like my dotsquonks though -- mine perform well, no issues with doors or magnets after six months, no leaking, a 12ml bottle, and they feel good in my hand (it's surprising how such a small curvature across the doors and front/back takes away any boxy feel).

The problem I have isn't that it doesn't work - it does. It's that I paid $130 CAD for the mod plus $60*2 CAD, plus 13% in tax (130+30+30)*1.13 = 214.70 CAD.

For 215 CAD I could buy any regulated mod coming from China (including a lost vape drone 2.0), or a lower high end mech (like a plug or bolt), or a used high end. Add to that the fact that you can buy a $20 hugo squeezer. Or for the same price as the mod itself I can get something like a Purge Redeemer. All of these options perform just as well with the majority being even better.

When I look at my desk I have a dozen squonkers sitting with it. I rarely pick it up because literally everything on that desk vapes better.

Typical Smok garbage, we've replaced 3 of them so far...


But it talks and you can talk to it... "Hey I-Priv, stream the latest Busardo video"
No thanks. People already think I'm crazy. Don't need them to see me talking to my mod...

Dear lord, I would be hitting that thing with a broom trying to send it back to the pits of hell it came from...
Monk Fish... Nasty little devils.
I have a buddy whose father owned a National Sea fishing boat back in the day. The Monk fish used to lay in the shallow water on deck with it's eyes just above the water line waiting to shred the first rubber boot that came close.

Saltwater catfish can bite a boom handle in half. They use to grab one, apply a few slaps to the side of it's head then point it at the stainless wash sink. It would grab onto the edge of the sink and hang there for quite a while. Nasty but oh so tasty, they make the best fish and chips because all they eat is shell fish. :)

Gurgle, gurgle, vape, slurp, vape, gurgle... Oh how I don't miss the eVod.
Me neither. I never had any luck with Kanger coils back in the days. The evod worked better for me than the PT2 for some reason. I like that setup. It reminds me how good we have it now.
