You do know we will eventually have to squonk to hang in the "cool" thread?

I've been squonking for five years. Where's the cool thread now ?

I agree. I am intrigued and have thought about squonking. Just not interested enough to jump yet. I do know I will some day tho. Same with mechs, figure I'll do both at once with a coppervape.

Correction! The batteries I was thinking of were the HE2's.

I hope nobody went and ordered the HE4's looking for a slightly shorter battery. Although they might be. I don't know.

But, it's the HE2's that I got because the are just a smidge shorter and fit in smaller places.

I have some HE2's too, and they're fine cells.

Just to be clear, the HE2 has a bright red wrap while the HE4 has a bright yellow wrap.

@Mooch's testing shows the HE4 to be the better performer in higher drain applications. Since neither you nor I are likely to ever push these cells to their limit, the choice can come down to price (that's me), color (that's me too; Roll Tide!) or length (size matters!).

Do Batteries and chargers count ?

 

[stols001]

Nope, they do not. Any ongoing supplies are exempt from shinyitis, including nic purchase in bulk and flavors (and backups, if it is reasonable). If you have the mod in all 18 colors, that may not be so reasonable, but what do I know? LOL.

Damn PO.
Seriously. We passed him going out to Lowe's. I got over on our dirt Rd to let him by.

He didn't deliver my refill bottle and didn't take our outgoing mail. Everyone else got theirs.

Sonofa....

Necessities never count as shinyitis. So batteries and chargers are just consumables like juice.

That said. Many would argue that new mods are exempt because they are necessary items as well.

No, "new" mods are not necessities the same way juice is. You don't need to keep buying new pans to cook your food, but you do need to keep buying the food. Now if a mod breaks, replacements are necessary as is 1 backup if you don't already have one.

Yes, but we need backups, for our backups, for our backups, for our backups..............
