Good morning shiners!



@Ricky Vapes I will add to as another satisfied customer with the topside. A very nice regulated squonk. One tip on it, when you fill it from the top, don't fill to the very top of the bottle. You need to leave a little bit of room to screw the top plug cap on. If you overfill and then insert the plug, you'll push too much pressure into the bottle and potentially cause a leak. Other than that, it's as easy as you can get.

@Don29palms helped point out to me while I was sitting waiting on a reply to my emailed question.that Signature has sold out of the SQ Topside. Now I'm bummed. Hopefully they'll restock soon, and hopefully they wont be the only vendor for it.
Hit that juice has some coming, keep an eye on Mikes site. I bet they will go quick.
TVC said others are getting them stateside but hasnt said who else yet.

I have 4 and a carbon lol.
The fill method has stopped me from grabbing any of my standard squonkers. So much so im starting to consider offloading some. Maybe even my spade 21700.
Oh and i have a SQ TOPSIDE enroute.
Wait. WHAT? You're getting rid of your Spade? We need to talk. I want an SQ Topside but Signature says SOLD OUT.

The pics you post are lovely, you are already skilled at photography, won't be any different with gear reviews.
@DeloresRose hey I can see where this is going... Weird. I've been doing hobbyist photography for around 10 years now and I don't consider myself proficient especially with flash and lighting... Just giving friendly advice which I'm sure everyone realises. Definitely better to wait for a better day as Delores already new.

My review photography is just ratted out on my mobile so I don't even do it properly but hey it would be a lot better on my DSLR... I don't get paid enough for that.

And Delores I think your DSLR photography is lovely too.... :wub:

Ahh that looks cool. Eciggitty eh? American site I’m guessing?
I have two. @Skunk! got me started on them. They’re pretty indestructible. I either use it or an Aegis if I’m at a build site. Stuff tends to get knocked off ladders, cross members, saw stand... so far it’s survived any mishaps.

Yeah i figured why not, its a darker blue so black rda should look good on it. From the pics anyway.
Recently saw there is an off switch internal of the sq too, just a plastic twist that keeps the bar from contacting the 510.

Oh and i do have a blue topside single lol.


Or did you mean a blue spade?

I was just trying to decide if I should admit that all the pictures I have posted so far are from my cell, lol!

I will get the hang of that Nikon one day, I just haven’t had a chance to fire it up much this year, with my mom and all. I took it out of the case three times.

I’ll try both though. The light gets nice and soft outside just before sunset

Good afternoon Shiny's!!! :D

Fresh builds are lovely morning treat.
Oh yeah, absolutely lovely!!! Especially with some excellent juice. :)

It’s the simple things, yes?

I got most of my chores done yesterday, took myself out to lunch, and finished my socks.

Today I’m going to start on those reviews- not sure the sun will cooperate for pictures, but at least I can get them written up. And my daughter is coming for a visit later on. I need to go get some snacks for her.
The simple things rock my world the most. Your homemade socks are awesome. Are they for sale? If they are I would like to buy a pair. Please let me know. :D
I'm wondering when the Sun will show itself around here. It's been cloudy for days. :(
Looking forward to your reviews.

Actually, sun is the photographer's enemy and it's generally far better to avoid it. For example a cloudy day gives lovely soft diffused light with soft shadows whereas on a sunny day the light is very harsh with horrible hard shadows.
I like the light of the Sun best in early mornings and dusk. A photography book I have says those are the best times for getting shots outdoors anyhow.

Yep.... But hey the heart's the best one. Thank you for your kind words you guys have helped more than you know.... Just goes to show its always better to talk.... Although I'm that kind of of person anyway... I worry for those that aren't.
And what flows from the heart, Love. :wub: It's great to see you in excellent spirits Charlie!!! :w00t:

@Sloth Tonight @Eskie I can handle the colder weather just fine but those days where it's in the single digits, or below zero fahrenheit, with high winds yuck. The wind chill cuts like a knife. Nasty.

I love photography. I don't have a spectacular camera but I don't think one is needed. Photography can be a very deep rabbit hole and expensive too. You can get excellent shots with a crappy camera. With indoor shots it's all about getting the lighting right IMO.

All the photo's I've seen of yours @DeloresRose have been excellent. You'll do great!!! :thumb:

I have a pretty good camera and several lenses and while I prefer to use them, I use my phone a lot as well. Photography's more about getting the right shot (good angle, good lighting, right place at right time) and the editing than it is the gear used, IMO. The main reason I prefer a camera is because of more control, but a lot of phones have a lot of control these days - they're just harder to access and manipulate.

Your pictures rock :thumb:
