Morning shinies! You perky morning people scare me :lol:.
Whoever gets crowned pilot/ crab king will be on the other side of 115 pounds of dog and 18 pounds of grumpy cat (the Queen’s favorite attendants ;)). Sharpen your pencils... I’m planning on a computer chip driven drone for package retrieval from the mainland. Need that one designed and in production asap, please. Otherwise, we’ll just have to take the trawler.

Im in an email kerfluffle with vapesourcing over an rba head missing from a tank box. Getting them to understand weighing the package isn’t going to prove anything is getting irritating. An extra piece of packing tape weighs the same. I was going to pif the tank anyway, and it’s only $9. But, I wanted the rba head to use with a different tank. It’s the principle!

Getting little aggravated with our boy Alex. According to him was gonna be shipped 2 days ago, then yesterday. No word since.

Better be getting stuff done and sent. Don't make promises if you can't keep them.

    Morning shinies ;)

    My bunker from FT has shipped, and I'm hoping my old Dragon turns up today :D

    goodbye

    How are you liking your Revenant? After a couple weeks, I'm still loving it. I think it was a good entry device to get me in to squonking. Really dig the sqounk button, 21700, and so easy to fill. I also got it at my local shop new for $20 with a 40T included.

    Alex has today told me that my package will be shipped tomorrow....

    My guess is that it's cultural. The French are similar. They don't like giving you bad news so they either lie or don't respond at all. It's frustrating but it'll be ok in the end.

    Obviously he's going to wait until he's got a few to post before he goes to the post offices. I've asked him to tell me when it's done.

    Good luck :)

    a thrilling 2 hour meeting about the implementation and roll out of a new EPOS system to finish the working week. ye gads. started at my current place of employment filling vending machines. simpler days with paid overtime.
    not a single, shiny, purchase this week. I'm afraid you fine folks will have to escalate your lustre game to keep me occupied.
    if anyone sees a USPS trawler with a 'flashlight' on board please vacate its path as it is way behind accepted schedules.
    evening all.

    As a squonker the pump works perfectly and I love the fill valve in the bottom. The squonk button is a little sharp on the edges though. I really wish they would release a firmware update to implement all the features of the Omni chip, but that will never happen. I'm a lazy squonker/dripper and use TC on 90% of my RDAs rigs so that would be a nice feature to have, depending on how well the Omni chip does TC.

    I've sent numerous emails to Revenant and Vaporesso inquiring about a possible firmware upgrade but they were all ignored. Given the lack of sales with the device and the low cost you picked it up for, I imagine it's on the forget list at Vaporesso. :lol:

    As soon as I saw the included RDA (failed attempt at a mesh deck), I knew this was a horrible design they were getting rid of and trying to recoup some of their R&D money on. Really too bad too, they could have put a fully implemented Omni 4 firmware on it, released spare juice cups to the Chinese majors and saw decent sales as a squonk mod only.

    PM incoming.
    Would like that recipe too if possible Wolfman. Had a meeting yesterday and after 15 mins in a small room one of the 2 other guys laughed while telling us he'd spent the previous 4 days working closely with a guy that had just been confirmed positive for covid19.

    I was outta there pronto and straight to the bathroom to wash hands. I'm one of the primary carers for my wheelchair-bound 87 yo dad and 80 yo mum. They can NOT get this thing.

    Hope he was just saying that to get a reaction out of you.

    I don't know bout that stuff, but I'd rather be upfront. Leaving a bad taste. Doubt will use him again.

    You stay safe, for your familiys sake :wub:
    Thanks Ange. I'm not alarmist but I'm weighing up my options now and getting as much detailed info from the guy as possible. I'm also the sole carer of my 14 yo son so there's a bit to be concerned about.

    On the vape front I did get my second Axial and the love affair continues. So much to like - including that they just never seem to get hot (single coil). Even after dry burning a coil the deck seems barely warm.

    Nope. The case he was talking about was a well known conductor. In the media here.

    Keeping my fingers crossed for you. Hopefully he wasn’t contagious, at least yet.

    No reported cases in my area yet, but people seem to be one extreme or the other. Either the world is ending or it’s a hoax because it’s not new, because the Lysol label says it kills Coronavirus. (Don’t know how to insert an eye roll)

    From what I understand, Covid-19 has a somewhat higher mortality rate than the average flu so far. Imho the reason it seems so contagious is that nobody has any immunity because it’s new.

    Now is definitely the time to take this seriously and do the hand washing and also consider where your going out to.

    This is no time for saying it's all hype....it's not it's real imho. It's all of us that will protect the elderly and high risk. Obviously I am more concerned because I have underlying conditions which wouldn't end well if I got it.
