I need to upgrade my photo gear, I am still on the Nikon D3S, really though. I found while the buy in is high with photography, gear remains usable for a long time, there is less of a constant turn over of product life cycle. A $6k investment will last you 10 years on a camera body. While my glass is still going strong and is still the gold standard 6 years after purchase. Also, you can make this hobby pay for it’s self.
I'm sick of travelling with Nikon gear. I went mirrorless and I couldn't be happier. The Sony A5100 with a 20mm 1.8 fits inside my smallest purse with room to spare. I'll be caught dead first with another Nikon body.

Naaaaahhhhhh!!! but you haven’t seen this gold loop only the blue loop lol! It does have a recess. Not sure why though. I’ll ask my friend at Asmodus. This RDA is 24mm but a 25 mm is the largest it’ll take.

I was told by my Asmodus buddy that the 510 area is recessed “so smaller atties would look better with the beauty ring”. Huh? I dunno. I haven’t used the beauty ring yet.

Well, the postal backlog is clearing much faster than they originally announced (largely due to a much lower current volume of mail/packages than expected). I got my Etna RDA on Friday, and today I actually got what I was really waiting for:

The SQ mod from Signature Tips. No packaging to speak of, just the mod, hex key (to adjust the 510), inside the velvet pouch (and wrapped in bubble wrap). On the one hand, you expect a high priced mod to be in a fancy package, on the other hand, it was well and safely wrapped and I don't have yet another box to recycle.

The mod is very small and light, is comfortable in the hand, and is a pleasure to vape :)

Here it is beside a dotsquonk for size comparison:

And since @NolaMel has been considering a mech squonker -- this should go on your shortlist :)

At any rate, although there still a couple outstanding packages coming, my postal anxiety is resolved :cool:.

You know, remind me next year that no one wants to wait til January to get rid of gear..

So far, a brand new Dragon has been sold and I couldn't afford it at the time a few days ago, and a lightly used white provari that again, I didn't have the money for..

I've wanted both of these and never found any for sale when I had the money, the one time I found a Dragon for sale and bought it they told me they made a mistake on quantity they had left in stock and gave me my money back... :(

So all these items are being sold, more provaris now I am refusing to look at, even a RIG.. :( and I'm so broke..

Sigh. Next December I'm gonna be ready I swear. I didn't remember this last year..

They’re lovely!!! I’ve had a gander at them, but they’re a bit pricey. Maybe in the Spring... the Dicodes is still in line up front ;)

How do the finger grooves feel for you? And it may sound silly but are you right or left handed (as a lefty finger contours and button and squonk positions take on extra consideration).
It does look like a right hander :(

    Waiting for the posties to get their s**t together and get today's parcels sorted, I have a Pindad & B2K waiting to be picked up and built (slow day at the shop ). :thumbs:

    Vaping some year old Yaeliq Cuba Cigar (very nicely steeped) in the Supreme V2 on a well loved and well worn VT133. :D

    View attachment 786489

    I really need to order a 500ml bottle of his Turkish Tobbaco, my 100ml has been empty for far too long. :vapor:
    I have never tried Yaeliq's juice before but have heard good reviews for their tobacco flavors, have you tried any of their other flavors? I see they have a snickers juice and after looking at the other flavors I think a big order from me is possible.

    I gave up on laser pointers....I could never catch the damn thing!!


    It's cool to see how much all animals have in common.

    Dog = Love.
    17 years old @ 23 March 2016 for me. He was such an ........ But he was my ........ Used to cry at 6PM until I put him in my bed and petted him until he fell asleep, every single night. He would also constantly beg for lucky charms, but only eat the marshmellows. I had never seen him go up a flight of stairs, jump on the couch, or on the bed. Had to always carry him in my arms. But if I left the house and looked through the window, he had no problems jumping. The dog was loved and he absolutely knew it. Getting him euthanized was the easiest decision I ever made, he was suffering so badly. But it took the longest to accept. He was too weak to stand up on his own limbs so I had to hold him in my arms when they injected him. I'll never forget the feeling of the moment he died in my arms.

    Finger grooves feel fine to me in either right or left hand ... I'm right handed, but hold my mod with the left usually (that way it feels like someone else ... oh wait, that's something else entirely).

    Israel Captain and Land of The Honey and Milk are also two of my favorites, I have not tried any others though. If you add a Flavor Booster ($3) to the selection you get a 10ml bottle of the flavorings used to make the juice so you can adjust it to taste, I assume the $9 booster is 30ml of the flavorings.

    I wouldn't order the Cuba Cigar again, I still have 50ml left and I find it a bit strong (never added the booster) but it's good for a tank or two at a time. The Israel Captain and Turkish Tobbaco could easily be an ADV for me.

    Hmmm, sounds nice. Shipping costs are a bit steep, but the prices for the juice seem to be really great.
    Orders are $13USD for me in Canada, which is less than having something brought in from the US.

    I had a $100 order from him seized by Canada customs quite a while back. I let him know this might be the case when the tracking didn't move off of Canada Revenue Inspection for 2 weeks. He replied with a new tracking number and duplicated my order no charge marking all the bottles 0mg. The second shipment arrived well before the letter from Customs informing me that the previous package had been seized, a Top Shelf retailer in my books. :thumbs:

    Unlike Eciggity, where I finally had to open a thread here to get them to replace a shipment that never even left the docks in Hawaii. :glare:
