Therion is still the most dependable and (my opinion) best I own especially with the Pulse bottle in it, followed closely by my dot.
Some have had issues with the dot and it's button, I've not had any issues. The dot hands down has the best bottle. Maybe fits a bit better in my hand.

I dunno, maybe I like the dot a little more than the Therion.

I've wanted to try out a squonk , see if I like it.. not sure if squeezing a bottle while trying to click a fire button would be at all convenient or comfortable.

But - if I get it I may as well get the best, and was thinking upon your recommendation of getting the tiffany dot squonk. .

Problems with that is you have to buy everything at the same time so all matches..and that raises the price tag fairly high.. so I'll have to save for about three months to get it... not sure if it'll still be in stock by then, but I'm thinking if it's the best out there it would hold it's resale value if I don't happen to enjoy it... especially being a limited edition.

BTw, you don't have to squeeze and fire.
Squeeze, then fire. You squeeze when you need to, not everytime. It's like dripping, cept easier at stoplights....
i am sold on squonking, all the non squonk gear is going in storage or getting sold. I will probably keep at least one non squonk rda on hand always, but otherwise it's full on squonking for me. 2018 should be an expensive year for me and my 'vape supplies' category on mint.com.

It's not related to disks in my back or sciatica... the pain shoots into my groin from my hip, and shoots into my femur but stops there somewhere upper femur, with the exception that if I push it too hard physically, then I'm getting numbness in my foot.

What's most miserable I think is the fact it's shooting pain into my groin.

I broke my back years ago,(its held together with a rod and screws, thank God for titanium) and have severe nerve damage in my legs as a result, severe pain (which is constant) in my legs as a result of the nerve damage, as well as constant back pain. (I have CRPS type two if you want to learn about it, as a result of the spinal injury)

With all the pain which is with me to my dying day, the one point of joy was the fact some things (think marital) still felt good... Now, even that hurts...

There is no doubt though that this is related to the hip, most likely onset by using that leg for the last 15 years to support more of my body weight when walking since my left leg has more nerve damage than my right...

OMG - you have been through it. I am so sorry. Had I known, I wouldn't have brought up the sciatic nerve - obviously, you know what nerve pain feels like. I had no idea when that happened to me. I had surgery to remove the herniated part of the disc and woke up pain-free. A much happier ending than your story. I do hope that whatever is wrong with your hip is treatable and that you won't have something else to deal with constantly.

Jeez I looked it up. That is the most severe form of chronic pain that there is. You have a lot of guts kid. I pray that it subsides some.

Nothing to be sorry for.. tis life and I've gotten very good at dealing with pain for the most part. You have to REALLY know me to know im in pain.. only my kids, my husband and my doctors can tell usually - and that because they say they can see it in my eyes.

I do hope with you though, that the hip is fixable without any difficulty... it may sound strange, but I think I'm hoping it's a fracture. .. that will heal with bed rest, and that's doable and has an ending! Hahaha ..

Speaking of which,,, I checked with my friend and he's not into squonkers. All tubes all the time. Sorry
It's very ok. Want an Authentic Entheon. May try to trade or whatnot elsewhere. Not much interest in Purges here, not the squonk anyway.

Titan up and running yet?
Working on it, I'm having a hard time finding something in the 0.28Ω range so I can use the tank on the PWM box.

The default deck is huge, putting anything less than a 4mm coil on it wouldn't do it and justice. I don't have any coils low enough to go with the series posts, so I popped in the Velocity posts and went with a pair of 4.4mm 8 wrap 22ga KA1 @ 0.28Ω

I should be able to find some decent sized 0.15Ω Clapton coils that I can use with the series post.

There is a lot more metal to that deck than I realized and it will retain some heat. ;)

Here is the deck in Postless, Velocity and Series. (Not my pic.)

That is a mean condition you have. Chronic nerve pain is the worst. It must drive you almost crazy some days.
