I have the best vaping friend here locally who likes to buy stuff just to try, sometimes in multiples, and then either discards the ones he doesn't like, or relegates them to vape purgatory. Thankfully I am on the receiving end of the discard/purgatory items now. So far, I have gotten a Dead Rabbit RDA, a Glas Mech Mod clone, a Fat Rabbit sub ohm tank, and a Profile Unity RTA. Also have some good friends here at ECF and discovered you guys like to do some trading also. Just recently traded a couple Zenith tanks for a Serpent Elevate RTA with @NolaMel. Thank you so much Mel! I have been a member of several communities over the years, but the vaping community has been the best of them. So glad I quit smoking.

Surprise delivery! Man, this is one heavy mod! I had to adjust the switch as it wouldn’t fire out of the box, but now it hits like a freight train. Everything about this is really well done.

 

[DeloresRose]

Went shopping this morning out into the most abysmal weather you could imagine.... Heavy rain is an understatement and we are having what its known as an "episode cevenol" which is where a depression meets warm humid Mediterranean air mass and then creates very powerful and sustained rain which is usually centred over the cervennes, north west of here.

Suffice it to say that thousands of poor people have been evacuated due to flooding in the Argens river basin a few kilometres from me and elsewhere around the region with more rain forecast still for the Alpes Maritimes. The Var (my prefecture) is still on red alert for rain and floods.... All exciting stuff but terrible for the people affected.

I hope the worst of it leaves you be. Please be safe.

Good morning everyone. I have a Topside and a package from FT which includes a Profile RDA on the way today, which I plan on putting into my rotation today. I’m excited to start squonking on the regular again.

 

[DeloresRose]

Oh, I got my Florida Vape package yesterday. A nice black with blue door Armageddon that I'm trying to decide whether to place into rotation or stash it. I'm leaning towards stashing as I now have 7 attys/mods running, and I can't keep track of what juice goes in what squonk bottle without a crib sheet.

I have the Cloud Chemist juices and do want to take them for a spin. Also some Custard Shoppe Blackberry. Given all my recent purchases (oh, I checked and it's a NarCa waiting on a flight to somewhere in the US from FT) I'm holding off on anything more this weekend. Despite the onslaught of email sales I know the Black Friday sales will improve the closer we get to the end of next week. I want to have my cc all fresh and shiny for that.

Besides, I'll have earned myself some rewards after promising to make the Thanksgiving turkey for my daughter and her boyfriend's family who are flying in from Nashville for the long weekend. It'll be the first time I'm meeting them so I'd like to have the turkey turn out well. I sent my daughter a list of what I need to do a nice honey maple brine I'll set up on Wednesday to soak overnight. That's always been a winner. Fortunately with only 5 people I don't need a big bird. The last time I did a turkey was before I got ill, and it must be 3 years ago. That was a 28 pound bird for about 35 people, along with a large ham. I'm grateful I'll never have to do one that big for the foreseeable future. Those big birds are a real chore to handle.

I keep thinking o ought to box up some of these many SS, I have too many out. I use probably 4-5 a Day lately. I did put a few away, but most of them I just can’t bear to.

 

[lupinehorror]

just as well i'm not terribly fond of squonking. my drone 250C came with zero squonk bottleage. should have been 2. there weren't any. package was all sealed and lovely. emailed ecigone. no bottle with a squonk mod? not their fault but they'll hopefully sort it out. great feeling mod though. updated via escribe (linux for the win) and sporting a sub-ohm tank.
green dreamer? oh. yeah.

Jeez sorry to hear. I’d be terribly worried about my rabbits if that was happening here. We get lots of rain but lucky never had major flooding. Just one big blizzard I hardly remember in 96

Morning shinies

The 22mm conversion top cap for the Recurve is great if you can get hold of one. You probably noticed how thick the standard 24mm "curvy" top cap is - the deck is 20mm and it only becomes a 24mm atty because of the thickness of the standard top. Airflow adjustment is a bit easier on the 22mm. When I got my Reo P67 I searched everywhere for the 22mm conversion cap and they were all sold out in Aus and China so I went the extra mile and paid the big postage from eciggity. I didn't search NZ retailers though.
In these shots -22mm conversion cap on the top, standard on the bottom. Apologies for juice smudges !

Vape Mail: I forgot I ordered the Thunderhead Tauren One RTA but was expecting the the Kelpie. I have no idea when I’ll get around to building them though. I look the look of the Tauren. Hope it’s easy to build and wick altho I don’t seem to struggle much with that. Lol! Now watch the darn thing will leak for days!! Lol!!!

Tauren One RTA and Kelpie. And building suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

 

[Don29palms]

Armageddon squonk and Redemption RDA. Yes I am weak and had to get one. It really is a nice built mod and the RDA is exactly what is expected from Armageddon.

I find the Kelpie very easy going. Not fussy about build at all. I have a 3.5 ID in mine, legs under, lift just a tinch. Keep the wicking light and fluffy. The hardest thing is remembering that it’s a slide fill

Have had a profile on my original topside basically since the beginning. Great setup, just get the wick tight and start at lower wattage. Mine is at around 40 watts with nexmesh.

Sounds right in my wheelhouse. My batteries thank me for it.

Theses Ephro cold steel 100s are heave buggers. The 250s must be super heavy. Glad I stuck with the smaller ones.

Thant’s is use the same setup since it seems to working well for you.

anyone have a Thunderhead Tauren One. I have the Solo but I still haven’t built that either. My hip surgery has really gotten in the way of me building my shinys!!!!!

Good afternoon Shiny's!!!

I slept almost until noon today, lazy bum. Dog woke me. She was doing the "I gotta GO now" whine.

Today I received panels for my Armageddon's. It was very easy, and quick, to sand them to fit. I think they turned out nicely.

They look great! How are you liking the Apex? I have one sitting all alone in a cart, and want to know if I should break my rule and just order it so it's not lonely all weekend.
