    Shiny Brass mods are my favourite. I was a little worried about my Kennedy because it was showing what I thought were scratches all over suddenly. But some polish cleaned it back up again. Of course my boy is sitting here happy I’m home with him and giving me kisses.

    Just ordered a bonza v1.5 in black for a good price on a Canadian site . That will look good on my mage mech mod coming hopefully soon!

    Still no glass from wotofo for my profile and it’s been well over a month

    Did you get an order in with fasttech for your glass as well?
    How's that coming along?:)

    I finally got an SJMY Doggy 2K16 and it is a very lovely vape indeed. Running it with a simple 26g 316L coil at 0.45Ω. Very nice in plain wattage mode or TC/TCR on the Colossal.

    Does it still just come with a plastic tank?

    I wasn't interested in the mosaic models until I saw the pics from @DeloresRose when she got hers --- looked much nicer than pics from the Asmodus site. So I got a black mosaic as well (and did a small amount of shaping, polishing):

    I'm happy with how it turned out.
    Really nice job Andrew..... Love it :)

    got a lot to answer for.
    apologies.
    Hey me too.... It's amazing how you suddenly remember something that you'd already done a few days ago :lol:

    And nobody listened :D

    I did put an order in with them as well. That was a couple weeks ago now I think . Right after you sent the link. Not sure haven’t received updates .

    If you like you can pop onto Fasttech and at the top of the page it says 'Your Orders', click on that and it will bring up all of your orders with there tracking numbers.
    You'll be able to check if there close;)

    Ugh, I really need to order a new charger this week. I’ve been reading reviews and it’s all confusing. I just want it to charge a freaking battery. I don’t need to hook it up to my PC to program with charging curves, ones that do internal resistance are apparently pretty inaccurate, and I don’t want something with another wall wart to deal with. 1A charging is fine for me, 2A might be a treat but really unnecessary as I have a ton of batteries so I’m never really in a rush, and I only need 4 bays.

    I would just get another D4, but it’s a 750 mAh at most for two slots, which has been fine but a little faster wouldn’t be so terrible. Especially when it falls down to 375 for 3 or 4 slots. I also want to see the actual voltage, not a percent full. Otherwise I’m not all that demanding, but the market has gotten nutty with these things.

    Except I want to see S2 of that Stephen King thing I can’t recall the name of.... oh, Castle Rock.
    Castle Rock any good? I tend to steer away from King adaptations as most are horrible (Under the Dome) and only remotely follow the story line of the book.

    @Eskie, can seriously recommend the SkyRC MC3000 for a charger.

    Not cheap by any means, does everything you need and then some and the build quality is excellent.
    Looks like quite the charger, a little too much for a pop cells in and go maybe. Do you have to set up a program for Li-Ion or is there a default one out of the box?

    Yes. I would say that is the one and only drawback with the atty. IMO they should have designed the tank section with embedded stainless steel threads. The one I have, SJMY Doggy 2K16, comes with an opaque plastic tank section. I grabbed a bunch of the clear tank sections (one is on mine) because I do foresee the day the plastic threads will strip. And I like the clear ones because I think that paw print should be seen lol. With the 2.5mm AF it is a rather nice airy vape but it can be closed down for a tighter MTL.

    Betting your dog sure is going to be happy to see you and you him. Safe travels.
    Just got home a while ago. Chrissy and Atty (el doggo) were waiting for me at the airport. He ran laps around me, pausing only to lick my face :lol:

    It's good to be home with them. I do wish "home" was out west, but one day that may be. In the meantime the desert is where a sloth recharges its batteries, and the Boreal Forest is my home :)

    I still have a D4 in stash. It is/was a nice charger.

    Perhaps have a look at the Nitecore SC4 (4 bay). It came out in 2017. I bought one when they were released and it's still running great. Although I retired it once I started using 2x700 batteries.

    I replaced the SC4 with the Miboxer C4-12 4 bay (updated vsn) which is another fine charger.

    Both are a breeze to setup and use. Those also show you a battery's IR too.

    Most of the newer chargers are going to default to 2A charging for the batteries we use the most (or higher depending on battery) but you can set them up to charge at 1A for example (or lower).

    I have some Xtar's floating around here too and an Efest I got for free.

    Hope that helps. :D

    ETA: Both the SC4 and Miboxer C4-12 display voltage (no %'s).

    I thought the first season of Castle Rock was pretty dull, @TrollDragon. I watched the whole thing, even so, partly because I liked where it was filmed and partly because I am generally doomed to finish anything I start. There is one great episode that focuses on Sissy Spacek's character, though.

    It's a big, not very difficult Easter egg hunt, full of references to Stephen King's books, almost to the point of being annoying, but isn't based on any one of them, so at least you wouldn't have to be irked by its infidelity to an original if you watched it.

    I am looking for a 4 bay as my first nitcore 2 bay gave up the ghost.

    I am not good at programming ANYTHING I want something super simple. Nitecore seems to do the trick. IDK.

    I'm looking. Cheap is also good ATM. I won a 2 bay Xtar and it has like dials on it that are more complicated than my car dashboard but it charges too fast. With only 2 slots there is no way to go below 2 amps. I don't need super speedy I just want Super Simple and Reliable.

    I think I might have stepped on the 2 bay nitecore I have. I'll admit it. I think it was that thing called "user error" but I was tripping and falling over SOMETHING ELSE, and I did not want to come to harm. Like, it was the only place to put my foot.

    I'm not KIDDING about the dang room of "A Beautiful Mind."

    I'm quite happy with my Gyrfalcon All-44, @Eskie, though I'm planning on buying a SkyRC MC3000 because I want to set my final voltage and like the idea of having an alarm to remind me to pull the batteries (I'm always forgetting and leaving them in an hour or three after they're done).
