So I think I have figured out what is SUPPOSED to be here today.... The grand and terrible Squid Double Barrell V3. I have been trying to purchase that mod forever Also a tank named, oh, "I forget" the mailman left this delivery notice about it, only didn't look.

He's kind of a jerk, I have taped my sign to the mailbox and also an "I am HERE please KNOCK" notice. So he can't miss it. Also a Miniken V3 which was not really my first choice but I was driving when I talked to the dude and I couldn't like, think straight (my order got messed up once again, I have learned a LOT about precision and email accounts) anyway. That.

Possibly the colossal I'm not sure. Maybe some shoes? Perhaps? Etc. I'm just glad I didn't buy anything ELSE. Holy goodness. Also FT order and also 8 invokes but I should probably check on those but they're coming from China.

I gotta say, and I never thought I would say this. I mis misinformed delivery. They should SO have it in our area, also not jerk postmen who are lazy. Etc.

OK I blame all this talk of Russians on @TrollDragon and @ShowMeTwice but also on my shiny addiction. Yet once I saw the price of this I simply had to have one. I could never get one in the past apart from clones which I didn't fancy and bought my KFL+ V2 instead.

The Russian 91% v2 RBA by Kebo

And yes polished steel is a fingerprint magnet but I don't care. Even with shipping and potential import charges once it gets here the cost will still be lower than what I would pay if any shop in the UK had it.

    Morning shinies :)

    BUT I now have power and a perfect flat white :wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub:

    @Fidola13 after our blissful zen moments of last evening I thought the wise path of the day to be old school with a twist of the new. The Creek. There everything is already perfect.

    Only minutes in I have reached mushin no shin and it is truly a heavenly state. I found my fudoshin.

    I now see more clearly the space between things. As slow and deliberate was the proper course.

    And I wholly appreciate master @Zazie offering the proper correction last night. :nun: Ohmmm
    How are you liking the af on the Creek?

    Russian = Winner!!!! :D Get that bad boy going. ;)

    I don't have the Fusion but I do have a couple Russian 91% v2's in my stash. Your post got me thinking of pulling one out and setting it up...been a long time. However I always have a KFL+ in rotation...my first true lovely vape. :thumb:
    She will never be retired.
    Cheers...
    The coil guy who used to work here at the shop left wire all over the place, so I found a half dozen foot long strands on top of a shelf. It looks to be 26ga and 24ga strands of N80 so I spun up a 2.8mm ID 7/6 wrap of the 26ga and it measures correctly at 0.65Ω.

    Wicked with Rayon, sorry for the webcam pics.

    Partially filled with Salted Caramel nic salts and vaping quite nicely at 20W. The AFC ring has no o-rings and it can leak some air in around it when you dial it down to the smallest hole, but wide open it's a very nice RDL. For frogs .... tight MTL, you'd be better off with the Berserker V1.5.

    Please ignore the junk PoS shop test mod... ;)

    How are you liking the af on the Creek?
    I have the smaller insert that it came installed with going and using the smaller of the two AF. I like it a LOT but I am thinking I would like the tighter MTL kit even better for my style of vape.

    Even so, it IS fantastic - so very flavorful - heavenly vape ---- exactly as you described.

    I would have no qualms recommending the Creek to anyone looking for a great RDA (IMO + I think I might be able to say - yours too). It does stand head and shoulders above many/most/perhaps all other RDA's I have. And I believe that has everything to do with the design.

    Did you ever watch the @qorax video on it? His YT video is floating around ECF somewhere, I think. It's worth a look see for anyone who may be interested. He loves it too.

    It's seen the most use here since I received it.

    Again - - - THANK YOU! :wub:

    Should I PM you, or you me, on the MTL kit so we can work something out?

    Yes, or I’ll forget. I’ll have to dig it out of the vape closet. Should have time Monday once himself goes back to work and not home playing Contractor

    Vape mail delivery brought me a few pretty drip tips to matchy match attys to mods!!

    I’ve only recently jumped on board with drip tips. Someone started a thread on them and I realized my stock drip tips were lacking.

    There are so many different types I’d never even seen before like the vase & mushroom shaped ones. Several atties esp the Asmodus and Geekvapes have come with some pretty drip tips already but for the most part I’d only been using black Delrin or Ultem. So boring now lol!!

    Does anyone have the Jackaroo? I haven’t paid it any attention, until I saw it took batteries up to 21700. POS or worth looking for reviews???

    I've watched a few reviews on it. Was tempted for while but it's actually priced more expensive here than the Aegis Legend. I do like the design especially with the American Eagle G10 panels. But it's apparently very heavy. The "V" shape prongs on the battery compartment cap that flip out don't look that great and you could stab yourself with them. But what troubled me the most was putting venting holes on top of the device. I think they have sealed the inside with a thin silicone just like the Aegis so probably leak resistant. But should the battery ever need to vent although unlikely it's going to come awfully close to the face.

    That last photo was a couple years old I figured I'd update it. LOL all that hair is grey, not blonde. I must say, I LOVE my grey hair. LOL . I can't wait for all of it to go. I am close!

    I think I look better as I get older, but it's probably just, like I'm probably not so hard on myself. I did that mirror exercise of staring deeply into it and saying "I love you Anna you are beautiful" until I stopped puking over it. LOL that was step 1 I hate my therapist sometimes.

    By the end, it got a little weird it was like I was just seeing my ESSENCE in there, the whole thing. So I asked my therapist if like, I need to talk to my doc about upping my meds. She was like, "Nope. Now you are doing it right."

    Love/hate that lady. :)

    Lovely :wub:!! I wish my Gulf coast box turtles were that colorful. My male doesn’t breed any more, but he’s at least 60 (we’ve had him for 26 years).

    Tell your Gulf Coaster, I sympathize and understand; it comes to us all.

    My uncle bought that mod before consulting with me. He only gets 3-4 hours at 11w.

    I have one and have had 0 problems, but it's heavy.
