    Did you find a Pico yet ? ? ?
    Or 2 or 6 :p
    Weel, my plans are kind of hold right now. As lame as that sounds, there's kind of a long scramble going on here this weekend right now. :lol:. Jk.

    I was really hoping to put an order for some flavors at BCF, but I haven't received an email yet for a discount email about Labor Day.

    I see putting up shutters in my future :(.

    VapeNW was great ,then they had a fire, had to close, and was bought by a larger distributor. No idea what they're like now, but I used them for several large purchases before the change in ownership.

    I have an Athena, nice little squonk and a good value for that price. I paid $8 on a 3avape (? one of those not FT) plus shipping so close enough for a clearance price. It has a nice locking mechanism for the fire button making it a decent pocket carry for a mech squonk.

    Edit: I just clicked the link. The price is for the whole kit with rda, I got the mod alone for $8, so their clearance is a better deal, although I have no idea what the rda is like.

    I too bought gear from VapeNW years ago, and they were a reliable stand up company but their prices were often higher than some competitors. Mattered not to me, they had them in stock and the others didn't. No idea about them under new ownership though

    In the fast moving world of vaping one can't give up after only 2 years... Sheesh :shock:

    You sound like a couple of old Greek guys sitting on a bench in the village square reminiscing... :p

    There is excitement left in life guys... Honestly there is....its too early for curly drip tips and slippers :D

    Charlie... always the enabler. :rolleyes:;)
    Some folks can. I gave up after 6 years of rampart buying, have not looked back since and don't plan to ever again. Reminiscing my life is something that I do do though. It's what's left now, and for me it's enough.

    Got the nexMesh. Looks cute, like a sbohm tank. Oh wait, it is.

    Taking a UC bath right now. then I need to figure out what to do with it. Guess I'll have to break a regular mod out to give it a spin. I hope the mod isn't intimidated by all those squonks that'll surround it.
    Must have missed it above somewhere... this thread moves way faster than I do now days so I have to skip ahead.

    Assume you are talking about a Profile Unity Mesh RTA. If so I have 6 of them and they are the first RTA's I have ever liked and continued to use. Picture is of 5 of them, but I also have a second gold one on a black Fuchai.

    OK, so I eventually saw what you were talking about on the next page. :blush:

    Thanks all for the prayers and well wishes. I am going to be dropping my nic level to 3 and then shortly aftet that to 1. I was told my arteries are in bad shape and they consider nicotine bad for blood vessels. Not coming this far and then doing myself in with nic. Things like these are life changing anf I will make sure it is. No more butter and mayo which I knew was not great but nobody ever told me to cut it out so I was happily going along with it. Scary thing is my cholesterol numbers are great and that is what my Cardio DR was monitoring. One never knows about their arteries until something like this. The brain scans and MRI's tell all but they are not routinely checked and I wonder why?
    I am thankful I am doing asawell as i am save for the left hand. I start physical therapy next week right around the time my new house is closing. Thankfully my ex husband is at my beck and call and very helpful. He has my dog and my dog loves him as much as me and I wanted her well taken care of. Hell of a thing to turn 60 on August 16th and then have a stroke on the 23rd.
    I am so sorry this has happened to you, though glad the damage is limited mostly to one hand (the nondominate one, I hope). Worst belated birthday present ever.

    Ï think we all understand that Spydro and Ï know that "thé guys" will accept the joke and the spirit of my comments with a smile... Above all the shinyitus thread is about fun :)

    For me your presence is very welcome and you are often the source of info from years past that otherwise would be difficult to find....

    Mind you I still think you should try a BB or new innovation once in a while :p

    Have a good day :D

    Good morning shiners! My hopes and prayers for everyone in FL looking at that hurricane barreling in. I saw the news it intensified this morning, so it sounds like it'll be one nasty strike.

    After a tank of juice on the nexMesh, the flavor settled down. Guess I'm not used to drop in coils needing time for the cottony thing to go away. It's fine, but no better, and not really as good (going by memory) as my Freemax mesh pro mesh coils. There is something to be said for the convenience of a tank, but I doubt I'll be buying extra coils for it. Haven't give the Kanthal coil again, so I guess I'll be fair and try it out. I watched a review by Haze on it, and while he got hysterical that his leaked (mine hasn't) the glass part is apparently some specialized plastic (nope, didn't read the instruction manual once again) that is almost indestructible, and wouldn't break until a bunch of very hard hits with a hammer. The rest of the mod was busted before the "glass" was. So if you're looking for a tank to stand up to punishment like an Aegis, I guess you now have a winner.

    Which raised an interesting experience. I haven't bothered with YT reviews in a long time as I just found them unhelpful. I checked out a few Bohr reviews from RIP, Fagen, and Kimmie to see what they thought and it was all over the place as to flavor, but that's subjective and can't dispute one way or another (also the reviews were like 2 months old, and I didn't realize it was out that long). But I was bummed to find the description of "sleek" given by two of them, as I really thought I'd come up with something original for the review. Back to the drawing board.

    I'm still glad I wrote it before watching any so as not to sway my opinion, but how could they possibly steal my wording 2 months before I wrote it? Witchcraft I say.

    I think I’m caught up here, lol. Once you get behind it’s s struggle.

    @charlie1465 i don’t think they’re going to restock those single coils. They’re showing discontinued on FT, where I had a couple in the cart, and OOS pretty much everywhere else.

    I just said the heck with it, send me the duals.

    The singles that are still in stock are the gold and rainbow, so I bought those from eciggity.
    I got a couple other RDAs too, a dead rabbit sq and a drop dead. bought more Bunkers from fasttech because they use Map, which I know will make them cheaper than the LD sale price. I have a few .Blanks in the FT cart I can use the sale code on, not sure if there’s anything else I want to add before I buy. I was thinking of an Aegis solo - $32 with the code. Or the legend, $45.

    Mostly I just want to stock up on my favorite RDAs while I still can. And a few RTAs. I’m going to look for Wasp nano rtas. I started using those again and decided I kinda like them.

    If you're interested in the solo I'd go for it. Great little mod which produces a very smooth vape. I really like mine. I haven't tried the legend but I know it's a heavy and chunky affair. I guess it will come down to the way you build as to whether a dual or single battery is better.

    I've been thinking about trying the Nano it is certainly popular.

    Hope your Mum is still doing better and that the family has relaxed a bit and come back from that inevitable abyss. Love and hugs :wub:

    Mom was doing ok yesterday, lucid but sleepy. It’s going to be hard for her to fight off the pneumonia but they’re doing a couple more days of IV so that should help.

    I think, after a quick tally of recent purchases, I’ll hold off on any more mods. I did send the FT legend link to my nephew who uses those. I know he’s paying double at the local shop.

    I think I have 8 mods and over 25 RBAs on the way. And some wire from AVS. That’ll go right into the stash box and I feel comfortable that that’s all I’ll need if I live to be 110.
