Good on them. And especially for just making it an addition, not a new mod/cash grab :thumbs:
Great point. Most companies would have released the 21700 version.
Hey I've been thinking the only way this will work is if the walls of the 21700 battery tube are a little thinner. The way it is with the 18650 or 18350 tubes there seems to be no room for a larger outside diameter tube. What do you think?

And yes blandness cured!!

    Yep, the first thing I did was strip my Mixx and tried to figure it out :lol:

    That was the only way I could see it. And if that's the case, then it's even better news because it keeps the Mixx having such a small width.

    Howdy, Shinies! Any thoughts/comments/suggestions on Charlie's singed (?) wick?

    Tiptoeing carefully around the paramour altercation... ;)
    So far, he's only had my advice - poor bugger :lol:

    Keep in mind that you know WAY more than I do :wub:
    If it was my coil, I'd check I have both wick shoulders/tails with the same density. Which is harder to do in an Exocet wick, but as you twist yours like I do - if the twists aren't even, pull it out and take off a few strands off one side.

    That would be my guess. I'd also try wicking with less cotton than you would normally use, just in case it's something as simple as overstuffing the muffin (technical term)

    Thanks Ange.....I don't know more than anyone else really :)

    My usual technique has been to pull the wick through until it evens out on both sides but I agree I'm probably getting an imbalance. I watched Robs Exocet wicking vid again and now I'm setting the coil higher and paying more attention to the straitness of the cotton I'm getting better results....I think as it was only today.

    I agree I'm probably stuffin the muffin too....can't stand a crackly coil. I also cut my ends much shorter so I hope it improves my vape.

    Thanks for responding.... you're a sweetie :wub:

    Ahem cough cough, :D, only one person here got all upset about it. Took their toys, went home and hasn't been seen since. Isn't the first time they've done this either. But, oh well. Life in the land of Shiny goes on, and very happily too, I might add.

    The rest of us were enjoying ourselves conversing about Betsy Paramour and her illicit ways. ;)

    It wasn't a battle at all, not even close. One person here made a really stooopid comment. One that should never have been made. Nervy, very nervy. Obviously didn't like the replies they got from myself and another. But as in real life stooopid comments do, and will, get challenged.

    Gotcha. Well I hope there are no hard feelings. It's just vaping stuff, not the end of the world.

    Unless someone makes fun of my Dvarws. Then I'm gonna throw down.

    If you turn the screen away from you the buttons will be properly orientated. You just have to get the updated display MrJustRight put out the other day. It's in Braille..

    He also suggested a fix for the loose 510 connection. He said to hold the mod upside down while vaping.

    That Paramour mod just came out right? So maybe the first batch of production had some quality issues?

    I vape hanging upside down anyways. Maybe I should get one.

    Does that mean the blandness drought finally got broken? I'm bloody glad to see that :wub:

    I used your calligraphy style handwritten notes of that recipe to stick it in ELR format, if anyone else here wants it:

    Isn't NY Cheesecake made by CAP?

    I didn’t understand what the problem was. I guess just wafting along in my cloud of obliviousness

    Yeah, I still don't get quite understand what they are talking about. I went back and read a few pages and I didn't notice anything. But oh well.

    SMT, Charlie, myself, Mel, Nailz and Zazie had a rolling energetic discussion about the different versions of the Paramour and the screen orientation/resulting up down button placement.

    All sorts of youtube links, photos, hand and/or computer drawn arrows were used to try and explain.
    We kind of got there in the end. Seems like we've found at least 3 different versions of the Paramour with slight variations.
    Anyway it was good natured, sometimes a bit silly and no blood was spilled.

    Somebody else seemed to have misunderstood the rowdiness for ill feeling but that was never clarified.
    I'm sure we're all friends

    My takeaway? Disturbing lack of QC to have ANY variation between mods, plus pretty darn cruddy construction. I’ll only put a battery in mine if I go to use it. The discussion makes me feel like it can’t be trusted.
