@Eskie, can seriously recommend without hesitation SkyRC MC3000 for a replacement charger.

It's a bit complicated at first glance and expensive, but it's a really good charger. And the ability to create 30 different charging profiles which includes parameters such as voltage, charge rate and cut-off in mA puts it in a totally different class.

Well... I just learned you never look at a man and say "can you help me? I need my little doohicky..."

Apparently "little doohicky" can mean a wide variety of things..

haha

She never appreciates it until she goes outside when it’s cold. And she wore it out just now and came back without it. I found it stuck under the arborvitae.

She's a brat - was that where last years ended up? BTW we do the same thing for pet lambs on their first few days. They just pee on them to show their appreciation

I got vapemail today, and even better it's from an awesome Shiny

I'm now the proud owner of kanthal 0.67mm*0.27mm flat wire and ss316l 0.67mm*0.27mm flat wire. And I can't wait to try it in the morning - thank you so much @Fredman1

Yes, same branch and everything!

Speaking of pee... the yellow jackets are getting testy, as they do in fall. Was on the porch with Rudy today and one kept getting in his face. He can’t see well enough to avoid it. It tried to land on his nose and i shooed it off and killed it with a fly swatter. He sniffed around until he found it and peed on it. Good for you, Rudy!

I finally got around to restocking my steep box today. I made 8 30 mls and 4 10 ml tests. One was white chocolate. I’m thinking it’ll be more of a background flavor, but who knows. Also did TFA sugar cookie. Me and my sweet tooth.

I'm going to be okay, everyone. I just bought another Amighty (thanks, @bigbob2322!).

I got the membership price just by logging in to my account, by the way. And a Honey code knocked another five bucks off.

ETA: I did not get the membership price. Apologies for misleading you all.

Just showing their ownership and protection.

Obviously, it's the branch's fault, not Georgia's. She's the victim here.

Just a heads up but I don't get the membership price after logging into my account. (I checked to be sure)

You might want to check and see whether you purchased membership at some point..

it's either that or they've given it to you for being a good customer - which I'm apparently not.. lol

Just checked, and I was wrong: I didn't get the membership price, after all. Just $5 of the $39.95.

I have an alternate version of this (c4 v3) and it works great --- only does up to 1.5a charging (that's plenty for me) but it does do LiFePO4 (which I needed).

Nice charger, nice price. 6 bay for $17.99, this makes me want to buy it with more batteries.

Well i had a different experience today.
On the way in from work my topside was acting weird. I fire with my thumb and that part of my palm will fall on the up and down buttons. Well those buttons were getting hot. I was driving so could only see if it repeated, it did.
All i could think is the mod has had a good run......
Got to the house and tinkered.
Realized its set at 42w but only did around 28w and 2v when fired.
Long story short, my 30t decided it had had enough. It never got hot but was badly under powered. Oddly the mods battery bar was full. Changed the battery and good to go.
Was odd, never had a batt just suddenly get weak.
Anyway, dug out my brand new back up set and have them charging.
That was my excitement today lol.

Glad the mod seems ok too, but i have backups just in case.

 

[Mordacai]

@Blitzdonlife, at that price it sounds way too good to be true. They must have skimped on it somewhere.

And @Zazie, when finally get hold of your SkyRC MC3000 and have had a little play with your nice new toy. If you get stuck, by all means PM if you need to.

All I'll need to know is what cells you're trying to create a program for.
