I had it completely wrong I need to go find that comment and edit it I was mixing sourcemore up with Vapor sourcing
I actually looked at that one a couple times on various sites I like it it might be in my future list. Thanks!
Thanks for the links on the Colossal deal, @fgarvin , @AvaOrchid , and @Susaz. Odd you have to go to combos to find it, rather than just an option listed under the Colossals.
But now that I've looked at it, I have to do my smart/stupid thing: I have to think about it a while, and decide if I really want a stark white mod (I know I don't want the green) to save $. So I'll end up either winning by not making a purchase I regret, or losing by regretting not making a purchase in time. I kinda like the white for something different, but kinda don't.
In general, I'm pretty boring- I like SS/black combos mostly. And definitely not bright colors when it comes to mods. Or, as my daughter in law once put it, "I'm just not a bright person." When she says stuff like that, my son - smart kid that he is - usually just says "you're SO pretty."

Yeah that's how I felt about that green...its nice they have it but I'll spend more to get a neutral color. I think I'll like white
Looking around at FastTech and someone had asked in the Forum over there when the Christmas code was going up and one of the mods said it should be this week! *erg I think it was a mod anyway it was a quote. I'm sure they'll do something for Christmas.
Last years screenshots were put up and apparently it was 15%.. so I think I will be getting the pico there. I'm always happier with a place that I've done business with when it comes to Chinese vendors my stomach was in knots when I made my first FastTech order but uniformly throughout every Forum people spoke of FastTech very highly it's only caveat being that you have to wait which is fine by me.

phone app: 'you woke at 2.39am which is a little early'. really?
little constructive last night except for a charging marathon with the miboxer c4-12. 10 batteries full to the brim so the tac21 is ticking over nicely
looked at FT mega end of year sale. fancy not tickled.
gifting a pile of stuff to a guy who I've been supporting getting back into vaping at work including an MVV and a queen ant 6 bay charger. oh and some rayon.
currently waiting for the first bus of the day.

Well, I find the green very attractive and him not at all, so, no.
i have a feeling i bought a cthulhu hastur mtl rta before but if i did i have no idea what happened to it. it may have got binned in a fit of huge fumbley finger rage.
if i did then just bought another as ecig one are selling them for £8.99 today.
they also have a site-wide sale on for those who are interested.

Oh yes I can relate...SA group here we come....
"My name is Charlie and I have a shinyitus problem"
Oh by the way we're on your side and we promise to make you much worse
I've decided to follow in the Slothman's steps. I won't be frequenting this thread much anymore. I have scaled down my buying radically, as I have everything I need for my style of vaping. To each and everyone here, I thank you dearly for all the love, support and most of all, the mountain of information I gathered from you. I love you all and wish you the Merriest of Christmasses, and a very Prosperous 2020

I want to apologise for being rude to you earlier. It all basically turned sour and I didn't get to say what I actually wanted. I want to add a few things that I hope can be of interest to you. I don't in any way intend to try and sway or influence you. Firstly though, I want to mention again (as I have before).... plz forgive my linguistical skills as i'm not good at expressing myself in English. You have to read between the lines some). All I want to do is tell you what happened to us and how I see things. Hopefully it can be of some benefit to you. If not...its all good.
My daughter was also diagnosed with bipolar..as well as a list of other disorders. She was heavily psychotic and in and out of two different psychiatric hospitals. The psychiatrists had her on this, that and the other (lithium being one) for about a year. I couldn't believe when this woman Naturopath said to the wife to bring her in...she gets very good results with mental illnesses she said. I remember, at the time I said to the wife...how the hell can she even pretend that she can help her. I mean its a mental illness, and she was properly out of it. She was stark crazy at certain stages, milder at others. During that period she was never at the same reality we were. The ambulance came to fetch her one time, she started undressing as she thought they wanted to have sex with her. Ah there was soooo many other frightening episodes....She was literally out of it... she was kept in isolation under guard on multiple occasions. The wife spent soooo many nights sleeping with her (for weeks on end) as that can be a dangerous place. They used to get her to a manageable (almost zombie) state and then release her. Not long and she's back in again....and so it carried on and on.
She (the daughter) also was on a good diet...or so she thought (she after all has degrees in Nutrition and Psychology and led a very healthy life).
Anyway... This woman analized her body with many tests, and found what her body/mind was sensitive/allergic to. What was lacking and what was in over supply.... There was actually more to it...I just lay it out in layman's terms as I understood it.
Point is, over a period of about 6mnths, she brought her back to a normal state....only by special diet (she was only allowed to eat certain things, and non of others for 3 months) and the correct supplements to correct her vitamin/mineral levels to stabilize her brain chemical make up and rid her brain of the inflammation.
We instinctively always think medicine first, but that's the last thing she needed. What she needed was something to correct the wrong...not something to confuse the symptoms. As you probably know, some brains are much more sensitive to environmental toxins than others...Again, layman's terms...
She has a normal life now without any chemical medications. She has taken time out now to work on her self esteem and confidence as that took a huge knock. As for medicines...nothing chemical... only an array of supplements to keep her mind/body in optimal function.
If we did not persue this new avenue, she would still have been in and out of those places....and definitely would've deteriorated going forward as the brain is damaged every time it has an episode....and she had many. That's why she went back to vollenteer in the wards she was in...to show and spread the word that there is a cure for most mental illnesses. What she/us learnt is mental illness isn't something that "happens" to some people. There's a reason the brain is under stress and that can be corrected. The psychiatrists don't get that and still are gobsmacked, as its radically the opposite way they were trained....medical doctors to...!!! All they know is for a certain condition there is an array of medicine...and so they alternate between only that.
Only one psychiatrist was hugely interested and she spent hours "educating/sharing" with him.
I'm not saying this woman and what she does, is the Alfa and the Omega. Some things she can't help with. All i'm saying is there is other options that can have good/better results. She works alongside doctors (and vets) but they don't like that much, as they are looked at as "alternative". What i've found is our Western way of medicine is actually the alternative way....!
She studied in the US, so she might even put you on to someone similar near you. There's many of them lately as this way of medicine is taking off (Naturopathy that specializes in Functional medicines).
Like I said previously they don't treat symptoms, they seek the root cause of the problem and address that. I remember in one of my consultations with her, she said she rids a child from ADHD in about a week. She also said there's many many "illnesses" that is brought on by the body not being in nutritional balance and no medication is actually needed....arthritis and auto immune I remember, but she named a long list...
Anyway that's about that from me. Make of it what you will, I just had to get it out of me, as this was something radically different for us to and I try and tell as many people I can. We're in our 60s and always led the typical Western way of medicine life we all are used to....I mean that's what we always had and are used to. I'm not bashing it. There is definitely a place for it, but sometimes there's other options that works better. The wife being an ex pharmacist worked alongside doctors for almost 40years, so it was even more daunting for her stepping off the "traditional" path and try something "unconventional" like this. Come to think of it, it was out of shear desperation as all our individual ailments and illnesses weren't being fixed by our doctors...they merely managed our symptoms.
We all have since changed from our long time GPs and went with other ones that practice medicine hollisticly. That in itself was a mission as there are VERY few of them.
Same for the wife. She was riddled with arthritis. Couldn't get us a flight of stairs. This woman got her back to a state now that she has absolutely no inflammation, no pains in the joints and complete mobility. No sign of arthritis anymore. NO medications used. She also just maintains her body through diet and supplements.
Well that's me. Also... My apologies to all the people here for derailing this thread again.
Happy holidays everyone. I'm off on my break tomorrow.

Good morning shinier people
Yet another DHL delivery today. The driver just phoned me to check whether I was in. We're on first name terms now ....he phones me so much I'm not sure what it is though.
I'm tempted by the Minikin and nearly all the other tips I've just read about here I can feel that feeling again.....shiny, shiny, shiny....I'd better call the doctor right now
My Dell is scheduled for delivery on Friday but I'm worried now because I've got a lunch party with work colleagues. My wife Veronica will be here but I'm still worried.....can't afford to miss delivery because the weekends in the way.....phew..... delivery anxiety again
Have a great day guys

Well I for one shall miss you being around. When I go through a phase of no purchasing I still hang around the thread but nothing about it makes me buy anything when I don't want to....well hey, this is me trying to pursuade you to hang aroundI've decided to follow in the Slothman's steps. I won't be frequenting this thread much anymore. I have scaled down my buying radically, as I have everything I need for my style of vaping.

So I'll stop if you have made your mind up then so be it but you will be always welcome here if you fancy a chat With regard to your daughter.....her story is nothing short of amazing. It is frightening how resistant some people are in taking on board other ways of thinking and doing. With regard to diet being the explanation for most of our ailments I hear this all the time from my family so it's normal for me to try and have a good diet to keep myself well and give my body a fighting chance. When you think about it it all makes a lot of sense. After all everything that happens in your body is chemically based and why wouldn't the action of those chemicals be affected by changes in what you eat as they are the building blocks for the chemicals.
In the 1890s both homeopathy and conventional medicine had an equal status and indeed there were homeopathic hospitals alongside conventional ones. Somehow advances in the conventional medications and results overtook the other and here we are today. The first homeopathic hospital was built in Edinburgh and was very successful.
What is needed today is a synergy again between the conventional and holistic fields.....then we may have the tools to reduce suffering even further.
It's scary just how much resistance there is in people to take on a new set of ideas and it's talking about our experiences that will help to change those ideas. I applaud you for sharing your story about your daughter and hope that @stols001 takes some of it on board. One never knows where our cures might come from

after some calculations which involved a max 15% xmas FT discount code, transfer from $ to £ and a $1.47 gift certificate i went ahead and ordered my uwell evdilo dual 21700 in purple.
from sourcemore.
$39.75 shipped.
from sourcemore.
$39.75 shipped.
Figures.....
Woke this morning to alerts from my bank...
Went and looked, yep my money is gone.
Seems alot of online shopping was done while i slept.
Most failed except a few from a place called figs? Looks to be a furniture store in Europe.
Really?? They block all the purchases except the ones from another country!!!
Thankfully Christmas shopping is basically done, if not it is now.
Partly my fault as i got lazy and started using my debit instead of credit card. It was easier but guess ill go back to buying on my cc and paying the cc with my bank.
The fraud department doesnt open for about another hour, and last time it took like 2 weeks to return the money. Next check is after Christmas so keep your fingers crossed for me.
So...... enjoy your shiny purchases. Im gonna go to work and cuss some fraud people. Oh and block my card and order a replacement.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
Good morning shiners!
@Hightech Redneck sorry to hear about it. I'm surprised your bank's fraud department doesn't run 24/7. Regardless, I hope you get your account squared away quickly. That's an incredibly annoying situation to be in.

@Hightech Redneck sorry to hear about that, and right before Christmas too. I know how much that sucks. They got me about a year and a half ago. Hope the bank gets it sorted quickly for you
