Good afternoon folks. Hope you're all having a shiny Wednesday! :)

Got my Russian 91% this morning and I'm very happy with it.

View attachment 820811

Also in other news my wayward FT parcel from early May has now been refunded, so that's at least something. I have support tickets posted for the other two parcels now but I'm not letting that thought affect my day.
That RBA looks classy :)

I've had good news and bad news....the one I really was looking forward to is on its way back to FT but my other one which has been static since the 29th is finally about to get on a plane. This was after intervention from FT...they're good guys and it's not their fault :)

Another one came today and i'm going to hit the switch on another large order which includes the Bantam box....

Today's offerings were a new BB, 7 sets of doors for my VT inbox, some AWT batteries to try and two shiny drip tips in resin....oh almost forgot 5 replacement squonk pins which i'm hoping will do for different rda's :)

Nice! I love the Russian's for flavor.

It's actually very interesting for me vaping it because I also wicked up my Kayfun Lite V2 Plus last night. I honestly think the Russian has a smoother draw and stronger throat hit. I'm going to have to experiment more but the flavour is great and I'm a happy Muppet! :D

It is rather classy thanks Charlie but like all polished steel it's also a finger print magnet. :D

Sounds like things are progressing for you and FT are being helpful. Plus you got some stuff too which is always good. :) Yesterday my Spica Pro order sadly got flagged as a security return for the second time in 10 days. And the Flash-e-vapour is bouncing around Beijing like a ping pong ball so had to open tickets for both. Hopefully FT can sort this but until they do I'm not chancing further orders. Might have to reorder everything as one single parcel in the end if nothing turns up.

Sorry that you're still having hassle...with mine it seems that some things are ok but just badly held up and some are being rejected as in RTS. I don't think you need to stop ordering completely if you don't want to...just make sure you choose the NL post option....it's been fine for me everytime :)

Enjoy that russian.....now you need a dicodes or a stab to put it on :D

Thanks I think it's just Beijing being a problem at present. Really should have routed it via Shanghai or something. I'll wait for a reply from my open tickets before doing anything else. But NL is an option I will choose when I do order again.

As for the Russian I am certainly not buying a diocedes, too expensive for my tastes and I don't like stab wood either. I'll probably put it on a mech tomorrow. :D

Oh @Fidola13 ... hey 13, I can seriously help you out with the perfect gorgeous pink DT's for your pink atty, if you ever got one that is! I will leave you hangin' for now...

    I have both as well. My Kayfun V2, a clone, has a tighter draw. I have a couple of Kayfun 4's I still put through the paces. They are such a chore to clean though...

    They are nice aren't they? I see you have v2. Did you get yours from EVcigarettes? I don't think their price can be beat...well that and to my knowledge they are the only ones who still have them.
    I think the AF is nicer than the KFL or +. And love the small bore DT too, perfect IMO.
    I have a few in stash. They and cousins KFL+, were placed there when that sweet Prime lady came walking this way. ;)

    Guessing you do have spare insulators, mid sections, and the like, knowing some of the RTA's you have posted from your collection.

    If not I can help with the mid sections. My wife used to break one per month. I have more than I will ever use in my life. Let me know and I'll send you some, if you want.

    I honestly think the Russian has a smoother draw and stronger throat hit. I'm going to have to experiment more but the flavour is great and I'm a happy Muppet! :D
    Totally agree with the flavor, smooth draw + stronger TH.

    I have the polished steel ones too. I could care a less if it's fingerprint magnet as the vape is HQ all the way. Yes, on a mech = niiiiice!

    I do like both but will have to see how the Russian does with fruity e-liquid to really compare. But what I really do love is the AFC screw on the side rather than the bottom. I tend to prefer it more airy when I run 70VG juice in it. As for the Kayfun 4, always liked the looks and I even picked up some of the swanky clone drip tips from Gearbest but the sheer number of parts always put me off. Something like 53 or 58 I think, no wonder they're a chore to clean.

    Yes EVCigarettes for that bargain price. Even with $18 shipping on top and a small duty payment it's still cheap for a tank of this quality. There seems to be a good number of spares in the box and I may switch the PMAA window out for the Stainless before long because I like the heat from all metal. I did pick up some Orchid PMAA tanks from Fasttech as spares a while back which should fit. But if I run into problems I really appreciate the offer. :)

    As a rule with my KFL V2 Plus I seldom unscrew the window, just so I don't mess up the threads, plastic into metal is often a problem. And I was joking about the fingerprint magnet, my Tilemahos V2 Plus is just the same and polished steel vapes better imho due to being extra shiny! :D

    I so wish I could get into another type animal. So dang busy with stray homeless and feral cats. Number 1 and 2, Clementine, the mastitis girl, making herself at home all over my home and STILL all the boobage has not gone down making her not quite adoptable yet. Why or why GOD do I always get stuck with the fosters that never leave?

    Pictures 3 and 4, a wonderful soul I originally named Georgina and parked at my daughters for fostering. Found at a storage unit with another sibling that promptly died. Both malnourished and covered in fleas, ticks and ear mites. Georgina went for a spay and we then realized we were dealing with George not Georgina. He went to Petsmart for adoption last Saturday and was adopted by the end of the day. (this is how it is supposed to go)

    Last Friday I took home, from the shelter, a black cat and two tiger kittens, five weeks. Parked all these at my daughters. My daughter lives 1/2 mile away and has a spare bedroom and has her retired dad there to clean up and feed so I use this as a foster place. I go over at least once a day and supply all food and litter. Also my granddaughter, who falls in love with each one, then gets to see and learn about saving lives and caring for animals. I took the crew home because the black mama was being used as a surrogate to nurse and wean litter after litter and this is her fourth litter. She needs to be able to move on in life and I knew the shelter would do this for all of kitten season if I did not get her out of there. Pics to come.

    Makes me wonder how many male cats have been spayed. He was so close to getting a reprieve...

    Before the morning cup of coffee it seems more like 1,753 parts. I just recently got back into mtl vaping. When I pulled out the Kayfun 4's and wiped the cob webs off the box I was horrified to see all 3 just thrown in the box in pieces. I could sense I must have been them away years ago in pure frustration..... I've matured a lot since then. It did take me an hour to decipher between the clone parts from the authentics, luckily the decks are not that interchangeable. Being mainly a DL vaper all these years I still like to run the K4's wide open even with a 30 gauge build.

    I forgot all about the Orchid. You know I never could get it to work properly, of course I was rather new then. It was probably due to poor wicking. I'm going to have to see if I can find them now.

    She is looking for home NolaMel. I will find a way to get her transported to you ;)
    I have a very large, cranky old maine .... who hates cats (and small dogs) :(. If I thought I could convince her otherwise, I’d meet you in east Alabama. Those eyes just beg, take me home!!!

    Same thing happened to. I never even thought twice about the drip tip other than I preferred 810s to 510s. Then someone had to start a thread on drip tips. It’s been all downhill since.
