That is taking forever! Seems like shipping from the states is giving China’s slow boat a run for its money.

I've got a USPS Priority International parcel on the way from the US. The cheapest fully trackable shipping option from the US to Aus was USPS Priority International for USD $38.50. Took about 8 days to get from Pennsylvania to NYC for a flight out. Last seen having "departed from an Intermediate transfer airport" in Hong Kong 6 days ago. Must be going the scenic route if it hasn't landed in Aus after 6 days from HK. I guess it's a case of lots of parcel volume and very few aircraft. Patience grasshopper, patience.

Yeah I agree - and I've nearly talked myself out of shelving the poor lil Kroma. If I got a new mod, I'd end up wanting to save it for Justin Case. Plus I love the 3 clicks on/off that innokin mods have, when building/wicking. It's also reliable resistance wise for checking my RDAs b4 they go back on an unregulated/mech squonker

What wire is that Ange? Looks like 2 or 3 core fused clapton (?) at just the right gauge for bb rbas

Fortunately I’m not prone to peer pressure. Well, except for here of course.

yeah know.. i was fine until i met you know whom

Morning shinies

Only additive I've used is cap SS. But until I started adding a lil bit of sweetener to my mixes, everything tasted blah. I do have a sweet tooth though, and I think that is the only reason why they tasted blah - I'm used to sweets. To a normal person, they would've tasted fine

I need to do another flavours order, but I keep buying mods instead

i mean after a while i could see some adjustment, but it was still much weaker than the sigleshods_ it's like the flavours are shrouded with, well, vapour, wherears the store stuff are crystaline. steeping made a ton of difference though, despite ya'll saying fruits don't need much. sadly we;re talking serious, over-a-month, forgot-i-mixed-you steeping.. hoping the sour and sweetness will make a diff.

this is of course in addition to the consensus among the germans, who know the singleshot i want to mimic_ the consensus that it is rather heavy on coolness and sour. i ordered more citrusy stuff this time around too, having realized it's actually imp in all the premixes i like, with the exception of the couple that are meant as citrus, which buyn except if i mtl.

So I've decided to try out a new atty. The choice came down to the Precisio or the Tripod, and I've landed on the former because my brain and fingers can't face the prospect of installing inserts and lining up tabs.

I was going to be daring and pair the Precisio with an as-yet-untried mod but in the end decided to return to the Radius because it's been sitting on the table sulking at me since I retired it for some reason a while back. I tell you, I fall into ruts better than anyone I know.

I haven't as I stick to my Braun. Only Braun or Philips actually seem to give a close shave but I must admit I haven't tried many other makes.

I've wondered the same about FT too. It certainly doesn't seem to be the case anymore that anything from China is of dubious quality

my impression of the euro stuff is that they on the delicate side. i've mostly used chinese stuff. but i got interested in those multiple-head-types.. aside from the beard and head i'm learning what it me-ainz ta bee ya man o woo hoo hoohoo beee ya man! yeah!
errm..
how to tastefully say...
how abt: my voice is nasalizing up to F-scharf, upsetting Mistress, and i've confused a Mahler with Z nového světa, for which Maestro would've called me dumbkey_
clarssy 'nuff pharr yar?!

I use my big old Aegis 100W for a build stand. It's hard to tip over and you can dry burn/rinse the coil on the mod

And I'm back to wanting an Aegis The coil I posted was a 2*30/40 316l wire - ramps fast around 20watts. I ordered more in ni80 in my last FT order, but I'm not sure if it's now OOS:

What are those little clear plastic discs that you can put between your atomizer and your mod called and does anyone sell them other than China also do you think you can make one on your own LOL I don't want to mess up my plastic I'm really protective about this ultem colored plastic. I was thinking about just putting a little bit of cardstock with a hole in it or something similar

I quit worrying about it but dont have an ultem mod so....

Ive made some discs in the past from a clear soda bottle. Like a 2 liter pepsi. Make or drill a hole for the 510 and then trace/trim to size of your atomizer. Doesnt have to be perfect, unless you want to spend the time.

Great set-up. How do you like the tank?

We'll I'm new to steam crave products purchased the V2 plus with 0.37ohm mesh installed fantastic vape, Haven't tried mesh in Ragnar yet with a couple of alians installed good flavour with plenty clouds, To sum it up every RTA and RDA is boxed away probably never see the light of day again.

yeah Steam Crave is my fav when it comes to RTA's. I have the Plus and the V2's. I think I want a lite so I can try single coil

Some ruts are just worth falling back into

 

[SCOTT-3]

You got me looking a the lite now, I might as well go for the set.
