Battery life is great and the mod is tough as nails , probably stronger than the Aegis line but at a price of weight. For indoors it's great but on the go I grab my Aegis Solo instead.
Pooh :(. I have enough “at home only” mods. At this point, Heavy is a deal breaker. TY for letting me know. It doesn’t sound like an improvement over my 100w’s. Oh well, searching is half the fun!

OK this might be a total wildcard but I also wanted a device that could take an 18650 or 21700 battery. So I ordered one of these which is due Monday. Not worried if the TC mode turns out to be useless on it because I only vape in Wattage mode. At the price I thought it was worth the chance. Maybe it might suit you too.

It does look like a very nice grab n go mod. Therefore ... it is now bookmarked in my "Shiny to buy" folder. :w00t:

Man, my squid and Minikin 3 came just now. So I had to try them. First impressions, they both vape fine. Th Squid is a nice vape, may have to try a couple other tanks on it.

HOWEVER, it just has one of those battery doors where you are like, "Jesus Holy Ghost! Why must you make something all janky and terrible and rickety and I just know it's gonna break!!!! The mod I'm taking out of rotation is an ASPIRE PEGASUS and believe me when I say it is ELDERLY in design!!! I bought I to sale, and yeah it chews through batteries like a herd of elephants... thorough elephant food I guess! But that battery door is a BAZILLION times better and less rickety! Jeez.

I might not want to retire my Pegasus honestly l I rather like the vape. Nice handfeel. IDK probably I will but that battery door made me go, ,"Uhgh."

The Minikin V3 is INDEED a weird shape. It's sort of like, you could vape it a few ways, like with your thumb and with your index finger (my major preference) and it sort of works both ways.

The freaking USB CABLE was all tucked INSIDE the battery compartment. It took me a little while to like, fish it out. I was annoyed. Then I shoved some batteries in and sort of arrogantly decided to ask me, "Batteries married and in good condition?" or something like that. By then I was like "OOOOOhhhhh, dis MOD." I hit no, to see what would happen. It turned itself off until I took the batteries out and then put some LGs in cuz really. So I hit yes.

So I kind of like how you can flick through the modes easily by swiping them and whatnot, but goodness and mercy IDK. It vapes nicely, It kind of has this odd, never felt before hand feel that feels like it could ruin you for other mods. IDK. Probably I will get used to it. I like the black finish.

It's still a bit uppity with itself if you ask me.

Not to be mean or anything but the squid.... IT Totally looks like a vet who um, had PTSD when he was designing it and did stuff like run away and curse when his friends were like, "Dood, you GOTTA do something about the battery door" and then he got super drunk so they were like "Okay, we will just send it to China."

Maybe my impressions will become more favorable I have spoken to the mailman who is a woman and who says my package is back at the station. I am going to get it from there Monday, hopefully. Ka bit more vapign then it's yoga time.

Husband is now sick. Sigh.

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 think there’s a thread maybe in the mods section.

Okay I have come to reluctantly love the Squid. I put a better tank on it. It
is a NOICE vape. It has to be isolated from the rest of my mods, though.

That thing is HEAVY.. AND dense. It could cause the mod cascade to end all mod cascades resulting in breakage.... of all my other mods AND the coffee table. So I'm good with it.

AND I did yoga. AND I forced me to freaking.... Do all my notes. I am SO glad I did.

The Mimikin 2 beats the Minikin 3 in most ways except the vape is also super nice.

NOW the weekend is MINE OWN. I took suggestion (on here I think) and tried to "schedule" with my doc's boss. She has not responded.

I am thinking the WHOLE thing is a bad idea. It's fine for my SUPERVISOR to want to go after this guy but I have to WORK with him.

I hate people and all their freaking demands. I DID NOT WANT this "meeting" I did not "ask" for this meeting. I do not WANT to say the things my boss wants me to say it's like the work equivalent of like, swimming in shark infested waters with NO LEGS.

Can I just refuse the meeting? Say that I feel it will not be in my best interests.

I feel like the sacrificial lamb in ALL ways. NO one has to deal with the fallout of this but ME, if they chose not to. No one.

I really... this sucks. I'm looking for a graceful way out like, "Dr. Darlene, ANY further discussion of this an ANYONE's help... Would not be helpful."

I DON"T WANT THE ACCURSED MEETING.. GOD.

Meddlers and their meddling..... If the head clinic lady who is now being mean because she did not get HER way.

JESUS.

I have one. I like it fine, but it's rather irritating that the battery door is not sunk. So, when you set it on the table, you are setting it on the protruding metal battery door. It could easily scratch wood. I don't know what they were thinking.

I think I’ll maybe get the hotcig g100 and another Solo.

Efun has both. I haven’t ordered from them in ages.. are they still reliable, Shinies?

The Aspire Pegasus is excellent, I even have the charger base for convenience. It was my first box mod ever, going from my Siegeli Zmax tube mod. Mine just sits in its box as a backup but I’m very fond of it being my first in all. The first one always holds a special place in the heart.
Sorry I don’t really have anything to add I just got excited when I seen the beautiful Aspire Pegasus being mentioned. That is all, carry on my Shiny brethren and sistren.
