Oh gee is US Customs blocking vape gear or because it’s from China?

China customs, not US.

View attachment 821571 Got my tiny O rings and put one in the Drone. (Goes on the 510, supposed to stop the leaking) There’s already one on there, but a second fit with no problem. Seems to be working so far, fingers crossed. I do love this mod. A little awkward to squonk I think, but maybe not if you’re a south paw.

Great...glad you've sorted the problem...

I love mine it just gives such a nice relaxing smooth vape. Mine's quite tight to squonk with but I actually like that it's nice that it feels solid and helps me to not oversquonk

I have a question ?

I'm just trying to stock my 18350's and 26650's up from the @Mooch recommended NKON.NL website. All the best vaping batteries seem to be sold out except low discharge ones so my question is ....is there any problem using a '(Protected)' battery...

It's a bit like it has a mosfet built in.

I don't believe so. Not 100% certain. Only thing I can think of would be the fit in a mod. Right???

Well I guess thats a relief.

That’s something I’ve been wondering about too.

I think the weather has been strange worldwide.

It's been a much cooler and at times colder spring here. Only in the last week or so has it gotten anywhere near normal.

I didn't think about that...good point This is the battery..

NKON | EagleTac 18350 1300mAh (protected) - 10A - 14500, 16340, 18350, 18490, 18500 size - Rechargeable batteries

It's 38.5mm in length.

EDIT. Sorry, i've just realised it's a button top anyway. The NKON website isn't much good tbh I first looked about 3 weeks ago for the vapecell 18350 and it's still not back in stock...it seems that all the well know vape brands are sold out...jeez...and they've actually got a brilliant selection.

What is that? Is it really called "foxy lady" I doubt it but it is BEAUTIFUL.

One for the record books, I dropped my target mini (Vapresso) in my coffee AGAIN. This is the THIRD time. I pulled it out (the display was still working) and it took a lot longer to do because I had to walk further in my new house to pour out the coffee and also I am not walking FAST. I rinsed it under water and turned it off. Now, it's in front of my fan.

If it dies I am going to get the upgrade the slightly larger version because it is CUTE. I may just get it ANYWAY even if it works, because that is how impressed I am with Vapresso at the moment. If it works still, I may email Vapresso and tell them they need to advertise it as water proof. LOL

I will report back.

Yeh, I took some more Valium and it's making me clumsier. I hope I don't have to take too much of it for very long. it really is JUST like alcohol in pill. Not that I'm complaining mind you but it is the only benzo I've gotten where all this stuff about "tapering off gently" and "not getting addicted" is like STAPLED to the outside of a med. I mean, I do read the fact sheets of meds because I'm not stupid and I don't EXPECT anyone to tell me what I need to know, but this is like the only benzo I have ever taken where the warnings were like, that ferocious.

augvape druga foxy. it is most excellent. VV mode for me but VW available if required.

A friend from Ohio posted on fb about the storms back there. Crazy! The weather has been wild this year.

My opinion, the weather here is crazy every year, you just never know what kind of crazy you’re gonna get. 70 in February one minute, lake effect snow the next. Some years floods, others drought.

I think the thing that surprises my out of town family the most is the freaking wind. We can have days and days of 50-60 mph wind. Sometimes in the spring, but always in autumn. I used to think November Witch was a myth, but it’s real alright.

We’re so used to never two days alike though, and that’s likely why when we get a stretch of anything - cold, rain, heat or whatever- it just drives me round the bend. Even too much nice weather I just can’t compute.

Thanks for the info. And I do like it. Same as the Squid DB in functionalty.

The bottle is soft, but the hole is rather small. I can see that being an issue for people with bigger fingers. My issue is the placement. If I lefty it, I can fire with my thumb and squonk with my pinkie. But I haven’t found any way to work it with my right hand that doesn’t involve rotating the mod. If my hands were just a bit bigger I could C chord it lol.

After a REALLY HARD rain yesterday afternoon - we had a parking lot full of catfish that were about 5" long !!!

To be honest i've never squonked and held in vape position I just adjust the mod in my hand and squonk away....for me vaping and squonking are two different things...like dripping was or filling your tank. It's still a great innovation...and i'm the same with all my squonkers.

YMMV

My new shiny is an ultem kit for the Creek.
View attachment 821575
Also new and shiny is the Creek MTL kit I got from @NolaMel . I love it!!!

I installed the 1.5mm AF insert along with the chamber reducer and WOWZA serious flavor heaven. Next I need to try the 1.2mm AF insert.

NolaMel, you cannot have it back --- it is being securely protected by my dog. If you make it past her you'll have to deal with the claws of my cat. Though with my luck she'll just purr and let you have it.

Beware, I’ll come armed with kitty treats . I’m glad you love it. It deserved a good home! No shiny for me this week.... took Princess 1 and the grandbaby to Costco. Never a cheap adventure, as I have less willpower to say no to baby goodies than I do to a hot shiny sale!

I'm using Keeppower and Exocell 18350 cells:

Illumn.com has the keeppower 18350s, which were Mooch rated at 9amps:
18350 Keeppower IMR18350 1200mAh High Discharge Flat Top

And Fogstar.co.uk (or vapeclub.co.uk) have the Exo18350S:
EXO18350S

The Exocell aren't Mooch rated, but they are batch tested in the UK: for example, here's exocell's site report on cells tested from the batch mine are from:
EXO – 5174 – EXO18350S | Exocell

I didn’t realize y’all got high winds there too ( well, outside tornadoes). There’s a storm kicking up off the gulf. The boys are trying to finish the framing for the screen porch. I had to come in, it was blowing my vape back in my face (rude storm )

If my hands were just a bit bigger I could C chord it lol.

Did I just hear you reference a C chord?
With what you wrote you'd be adding the G with your pinky on the 3rd fret high E string!
