I got a pin in one of the two I bought and sent the other back for a wattanry replacement. We'll see if that one has the pin or not.
I'm on the gift registry at Health Cabin!So give me some ideas shinys! I need to spend some dollars!
Wow this is a rarity, I pre-ordered the Vaperfly Alberich with sourcemore, said expected ship date as May 25th, just got shipping noticetwo weeks early, hell yea
Got so good hopes for it, I ordered 2 straight out, hardly ever do that, but am expecting to really like this tank

Morning shinies![]()
I've just been informed that my vapemail haul from yesterday, is not just for me to try out - but to keep. @Fredman1 You are just awesome. Thank you![]()
That's a way to rain on someone's parade hitt lol.. But really it'll actually feel like Halloween even if it arrives sometime in early OctoberShould arrive by Halloween.
I’m getting that tank for review next time. I wanted the Lindwurm too but it’s not in stock yet.

The guitar is an old Godin Solidac I rescued. I had it gutted and redone with decent pickups, tone caps, better wiring and Schaller locking tuners. She is a player!
It's setup as an H-S-H with a LR Baggs X-Bridge piezo bridge (internal preamp). Two 1/4" outputs (electric + acoustic). I can blend in the piezo as needed (separate volume). The tremolo is blocked off, no need for it on this guitar.
I had some custom wiring done in order to select any pickup as a single or any other combination (near zero hum). The bridge humbucker is hot, so yes, it certainly is a rocker.
Next up, I'm having a wireless MIDI hexaphonic pickup system installed so I can control my rack synths (and play them) and also cntrl my sequencers.
And as you know very well, musical gear is a major rabbit hole.

I agree it’s ridiculous to not include the BF pin. I didn’t get a pin when I reviewed it and if I remember correctly Mike Vapes commented on it in his video review. I don’t have to worry about it any more. Geekvape has decided to break ties with myself and at least two other people who write reviews here on ECF. They haven’t told us that but refuse to respond to our messages and emails since late last year. They could have at least had the decency to contact us if they were making changes. I did see that someone fro Geekvape is still running their section of the forum but will not answer pm’s.

what was the issue that you sent it back? Just curious
Hey, @AvaOrchid, I'm backing away from that Alieno in the classies, in case you want to go for it.
Thank you for letting me know I'm going to pass as wellHey, @AvaOrchid, I'm backing away from that Alieno in the classies, in case you want to go for it.
That’s disappointing. I’ve bought A LOT of Geekvape hardware and it’s been a favorite of mine. But I don’t like to hear that besides my “issue” with them that others have had problems as well. Disappointing.
They never contacted you or the other reviewers to at least thank you and inform you that they are headed in a different direction? That’s just unprofessional imo.
It lacked the bottom af pin. But rather than just send me the pin, they had me send back the entire thing for a new one, which I'm waiting to receive. I was waiting for the new one for a month and finally called them, and got "BTW, You first have to send us the original at your expense and here's the address." It still came out a couple of dollars cheaper than buying the pin and having it shipped to me.
