I forgot who asked about the AVS Hexcore SS316 wire but I love it.

I've only done one build with it, but i'm really impressed. It's super wide so it's got great surface area. Usually when I get super wide coils like these I have to put in a ton of wattage to get them to warm. Because the cores are 32g though, no issues with that. Also not great on my mechs because the resistance gets so low. At 5 wraps it's a nice 0.27 @ 3mm ID. I've got it going at 420F and it's only taking ~40W to heat it up.

I want to see how it handles in a smaller chamber, something like the Gata rta. We'll know soon I guess.

Also loving having a 3A charger. It was taking me ~ 7-8 hours to charge a 21700. That's down to an hour or two I think. I've only charged one.

a vindicator is the only mech remaining on my vape radar. stainless version (not fussed about the cc button). probably won't manage it before they're gone.

I bought a vindicator clone from fasttech. I’ll let you know what I think about it when I get it. I can only find an authentic through the Kennedy site, but I suppose there are other places.

There's some here, they come with the constant contact switch. They have black cerakoted.

THE VINDICATOR 21700 BY KENNEDY VAPOR W/ CONSTANT CONTACT SWITCH

Prices are in CAD. Works out to $10-20 more I think but comes with the upgraded switch (which I think is $30).

EDIT: I was wrong about pricing. That's for the cerakoted. The regular version are $5-10USD cheaper (I think) but also come with that $30USD upgrade.

That was me. Thanks, Dom!

That black is fabulous.

Here’s the clone I bought...

please do. I've nearly bought the clone numerous times but have always backed off. can buy authentics over here but too many £s for me for the foreseeable

I have a friend who has been trading his mech mods constantly. The one he ended settling on was the 21700 vindicator and tried to get me to buy one. This was after going through other Kennedy mods and pretty much everything Purge has to offer.

If I were to get one, that'd be it.

Unfortunately tonight everything is getting put away. I'm going to be boxing up 30 odd mods. Putting away my extra RTAs and RDAs too. Only mechs i'm keeping are my plugs.

I'm not really into selling my stuff, but I might need to find a nice trade for this one:

    I have a friend who lost the battery door on her uwell crown 4 mod. Been searching for one and can’t find it anywhere. Any ideas from the pro searchers here? Thanks! :)

    PS....It’s the purple one.
    You'll have to check with local vape shops and vape groups on FB to see if anyone has a defective one. You might not get a purple door but it would still be a door. We have a green one here on the shelf that a user broke the USB plug off on.

    Other than that contact Uwell to see if they will sell one.

    Shouldn't be too much of a problem since he's always making new batches. The guy's a legit machinist and it's an outstanding mech for the money.

    Waiting for stuff to arrive in the mail is probably my least favorite thing about vaping. It's right up there with dry hits and gunked cotton. I've got some serious ants in the pants waiting for my RCM Infinity Mordor and there's still at least a couple of weeks to go. I still haven't found anything mechanical to help me pass the time but since I really, really love that SHRTGN I bought last month, I'm thinking maybe I need a white one to go with it.

    Then there's this one, the Infinity Twist...

    Whatchu guys think?

    Oh, and if Mterk ever does a batch of these Terk V2 caps...

    I'd be all over that like white on rice :D

    Good evening shinies :)

    They're still giving me haemoglobin as I'm still anaemic and now I've got a chest infection hence the radio silence. Aah well I'm in good hands.

    On the shiny front bought some friendly flipper gear this morning FF mothers milk panels for the BB's and a bridge or too along with a titanium flush fit tip and button set. I'm a bit excited actually :evil:

    wooooooooo just got a deal

    Just realized my package was missing my magnetic cables. Vendor is reshipping asked if I wanted to add anything. Said I was broke but got a C2MNT for $15 off and didn't need to pay shipping or taxes.

    COME TO ME
