i avoid the vast majority of threads for various reasons. sometimes feel bad about not sharing the limited knowledge I've gained but...
seen too many develop into spiteful, nonsensical nastiness due to the quality of the personalities that are involved. i see that every single day around me. don't need to fuel it here. it's apparently the nature of most things now.
my 2 pennies etc. flame on.
in the last month i think I've posted in 3 threads. most of which also involve you fine folk. I'm ok with that.

Enjoy it! It's a nice mod. Those GoMax are their new disposable refillable tanks. Sort of a pod with a 510. It supposedly has a Plexus3D sorta coil which appears is meant for DL. Please let us know what you think of them once they arrive!

Will do !

Ok...so I got this stuff.
They sent me a white mod with rainbow trim and 3 tanks - a pink, a blue and a black.
Has been quite the up and down (watts) trying to get it to where I can vape it without coughing my head off. I ended up putting in non flavored with just a few drops of Butter Mint I had mixed up, but still a lot of coughing going on.
I am a tootle puffer type vaper...low watts (7 - 9ish depending on the coil I built) , but I do like to see some decent visible results from a draw...
15 watts with this tank is a pathetic feeling vape...20 is a bit hefty for me, right now I have it set at 18.5
The tank coil thing makes a lot of vapor (to me anyway). The slide top refill thing is pretty handy and easy to use. I wish the mouthpiece was smaller...
The joystick thing not too bad to use either once you catch on to it.

Interesting items.

Between that ..... and the i never smoked idiot I have to wonder wth is going on. I wonder if it’s that same idiot who went off the rails last week and got banned.

I only read a bit of the “never smoked” thread so I *probably maybe* missed something ... my guess is she works for a dual use store. I’ve seen a lot of online shops adding that 3 letter, non psychotropic vape juice to their inventory... probably an attempt to save the business once the FDA hammer comes down. Mtl pod systems apparently work for both, so I could see people looking to quit shopping there if it’s the only local option. If she’s truly looking for information to help her better serve those customers, good for her for actually wanting to be informed. Far better than “Mr. I can’t mix juice, but I’m still smarter than you”.

If she had presented herself as working in a shop, with people asking her questions and looking for help, I’d have been all for that.

And I still feel like she only changed her time after she was called out as interfering, only then did she kind of agree that that was maybe the case.

Still though, juice guy for the win lol.

I'm still more inclined to think she works/volunteers for a smoking cessation hotline/clinic.

Black bunker came today, and this random wallet (hideous lol) from Amazon that I did not order. Someone told me the theory on the weird stuff from Amazon is due to some sort of hack. Personally i can’t see what’s to gain from sending oddball free stuff to other people. My theory is either a glitch or disgruntled worker.

No it's a hack...the vendor does it so that he can then post a review saying how wonderful his products are. And let's face it we wouldn't buy anything from Amazon if there were no reviews for a certain product..

To be fair it must be really hard to be a new kid on the Amazon block...

IDK how amazon works but I keep getting random amazon texts about how I can get money and it weirds me out. Amazon is highly useful for some things yet also weird.

That reminds me I need my supplements.

So what happens if you beat them to the punch and get your own "review" in before they get theirs ?

I found that item and all the reviews were 5 star. Lots of !!!!!! And bad spelling. I was able to leave a somewhat less flattering review of my own though.

My Ehpro cold steel is still “processing” at Efun. Amazing how impatient saving $22 can be lol. Perhaps they’ll ship on Monday. Haven’t had a “China packet” to track in a while, hopefully this goes smoothly

I just got a package from FT. It took 3 days to get out of China. Then it got stuck on originating post is preparing shipment, nothing happened for 8 days until it reappeared as processed through ISC in NY. Then nothing happened again for 4 days. Finally it showed up on USPS as out for delivery a couple of hours before it arrived.

Pretty good in terms of overall delivery time but the tracking was kind of frustrating.

Good afternoon Shiny's.

I hope you are all having a super Saturday!

I received a couple clone RDA's yesterday, an Ulton Salix and a YFTK Flave. I popped ss316L claptons in both and tried the Salix first. I really like the flavor it delivers and the options it has with the included AF discs. You can go from a very super tight MTL to a wide open DL.

Next I tried the Flave and I have to say it beats out the Salix flavor wise. No contest. That surprised me. If I had to pick between the two the Flave wins out over the Salix. With the Flave you can also get a really good MTL, RDL or DL. Flavor with the Flave is totally on par with the Hussar v1 RDA IMO.

got a mac mini 2014 8GB 1TB running linux. it's been struggling recently (encrypted FS may be to blame). think an SSD is called for though the apple folk don't make the swap easy. not shiny but it might put a hold on shiny until it is done.

My V4 Xvape atomizer arrived I am building it today if it is the last thing I do and it may well be if I don't switch computers and modes of communication soon. Sigh.

Also I LOVE Buybest they are so fast. IDK how they do it.

The anticipation began yesterday. I ordered a Hammer of God mod and 2 Purge Money Shot RDAs.

You have one of the very few jobs where when it's slow - it's a blessing

IFIXIT has a guide on replacing the hard drive on a late 2014 mac mini. Only 35 steps (to get to it) and 35 to put it back together, and hope it works!
Ill take my dell 2 step (remove 2 screws-slid out hard drive) any day . Have fun.
