I'm deciding between an a) Aspire Mixx in smoke frosted, or b) Stratum Balance 60w clone (uses the Ambition mods Easy Side chip) in transparent silver

a)

b)

$48.17 Stratum Balance Styled 60W TC VW APV Box Mod - 1-60W / 100-315'C(200-600'F) / 1*18350/18650 / PC + stainless steel at FastTech - Free Shipping

Or the PEI version

Buy Stratum Balance Style 60W TC VW Vape Box Mod Brown PEI + SS

I agree with everyone else. Mixx. You already know the high quality mod you're getting in the Mixx. And I like the frosted smoke too.

Two of each is the answer. You know you need two more Mixxes (that'll only be six - barely enough) and you obviously need both versions of the Stratum in case one gets lonely

Morning shinies

The quality of the Mixx is leaning me in that direction too. My only concern is my current fixation with pairs of mods

@lupinehorror and @Opinionated It's always awesome to see you here

Good Morning Shiny People

Merry Christmas to my Shiny Friends. May your days be merry and bright!

Spoken like a true enabler. You just earned a shiny patch.

Decision made. The winner?

I got it from VapourEyes Oz:
Aspire Sunbox Mixx Mod - Frosted Colours
Code DIRTYSOCKS took off 5% more, and I got free shipping to NZ (bought some diy flavours too)
The Mixx ended up costing $75 AUD or $56.50 USD. A frickin BARGAIN

So I can carry on legitimately wearing my 7 Dwarfs and Snow White boxer shorts, I also ordered Dvarw DL no. 7 this morning

I wanted it in black. So I went with the same Aliexpress store as my last 2 Dvarw DLs:

All three look cool! I don’t have anything with this form factor. Does it give you a different vaping experience?

Side by sides' main advantage for me, is you can use a taller atty and still have a low profile setup. Because I'm so used to squonk mods, SBS provide a similar setup.

The main differences is how you fire them. I use my middle finger for the Mixx.

Disadvantages:
You're limited in what diameter atty will fit. The newer SBS mods allow a 24mm atty, and some will fit a 25mm.

Depending on where the airflow inlet is on your atty, it can get blocked by your finger or battery tube. Mods guards or 22/24mm heat gaskets can fix that problem

Merry Christmas everyone! Did anyone get vape related gear for Christmas presents? I didn’t so I need to live vicariously through your presents!

And three more Dvarw's then.

Merry Christmas..

In general I'm doing fine, recovery was going well until about 3 weeks ago... since then my pain levels are through the roof, comparable to what they were immediately after surgery. I've been worried of a failure to fuse... but we won't know anything without imaging.

I had an appointment with the surgeon that I had to reschedule due to bad weather, now it's on for this Monday and hopefully the weather will be good enough to make the trip this go around.

Right now we have about 6 inches of snow on top of ice, with today's high being 18 degrees but it's supposed to clear up and warm up over the weekend.

Fingers crossed.

But in general I'm doing well... my husband's mother and her husband have the coronavirus but other than just being sick (like a bad flu) they are doing well so far. Apparently the senior citizens center is a hot bed, and they just couldn't stay home.. lol..

Sometimes I think our parents are regressed into teenagers, and certainly can't be told what to do. Can't ground them for love nor money.. haha

According to my son my mothers been just as bad, and he stopped trying to keep her home at one point. Now that he's not there I'm sure she's running around like a teenager too...

But now that my in laws are sick, they are staying home (I guess that's one way to do it.) My sister in law is dropping necessities off for them when they need on their porch...

They are the only ones sick though.

I guess this winter's coronavirus has a shorter incubation period than the strain in the spring... either that or their age made them develop symptoms fast. We know they were exposed on a Wednesday, and by the Monday following QB was running a fever, before he even found out definitively that the sick man who coughed all over him was COVID positive. My mother in law was symptomatic two days later and they both tested positive for COVID before she showed symptoms. (They both went and got tested that Tuesday).

They are both still sick though so do keep them in your prayers please

I hope your having a good Christmas... all my love.

(Sorry if that seemed too depressing for Christmas day... )

@Letitia is right, I do periodically take a hiatus and I was taking it to concentrate more on PT but then I got bad again and didn't know if I could do "cheery" as well, so just was staying away until I knew more about if the surgery failed or if I just massively overdid it and needed to stay down for a while.

Doing good though... been binge watching stuff on Netflix... lol

So sorry to hear your in pain. I hope that your doctor will offer you something to help with it.

I also take a time out when I’m not feeling well either mentally or physically. Actually one is often accompanied by the other.

For me it’s the last thing I should do since my online friends are a huge support system to me.

I really hope things will look up in this coming year.

Glad you are ok boots.
Will keep the fam in our prayers as well as for your pain and tests.

Good afternoon shiny ones and Merry Christmas to you all.

I wonder if this friend has a user name that starts with "A" and ends with "z".

Just buy it already.

The moment you (me) realise this could be me or Ange Epic

I received fanfrickingtastic mystery vapemail this morning. It turns out Santa has an Aussie accent, and a fixation with tall armoured female German warriors

Pictures don't do this stunning Pumper 18 justice. It's absolutely stunning. I love how it has the same florescent green in it, that my other green Pumper does.

Santa included the .blank RDA, and a perfectly fitting 510 DT adapter. The .blank RDA is already surprising me. I love the airflow wide open, huge well and amazing flavour. It gives even an Axial RDA a run for its money

I am beyond words at this incredible generosity and thoughtfulness of Santa @Daniel Forsyth - thank you so much

The whole set up is absolutely gorgeous. Knowing Daniel we should have known he would have thought of all the little details, like including an RDA (an non the less the one I have read about but I wasnt sure if it was good the ".blank") and matching drip tip

 

[Katya]

Did anyone get vape related gear for Christmas presents?

I got a Kindle Oasis e-reader and an Instant Pot.

Night, Shinies. 2020 is almost over! Rejoice!

Prayers that your fusion is just momentarily cranky. And, I’m glad to see you here, cheery or not. Merry Christmas, dear lady!

Merry Christmas to everyone!!

Sorry i haven't posted much these past 2 days.
Pops got it in his mind to quit dialysis...had to then get hard on him and go thru all the motions.
Went to see the psychologist at social services,she had to come home and we both confronted him.
If he didn't back out from his decision we would have to declare him legally ''not in his right mind''

Basically saying he couldn't make decisions by himself regarding,well you know himself and i would be appointed,hmm didn't know how it's said in english so i had to google it,thinks it's '' Substituted Consent'' for medical purposes.

Then it would be a hassle,he would refuse to go to dialysis,police would come and help me ''force'' him into the the ambulance yadda yadda...

2 days of this BS has left me mentally broken,finally got him to back down from his choice and he is going back ''voluntarily'' to dialysis on Sunday.

Sorry for bumming out the thread guys,Christmas so far sucked but it is what it is.

Anyway merry Christmas to everyone,hope all of you are healthy and keeping safe and i truly hope that 2021 is a better year for y'all.
