I agree with both of you. I've been very happy with my Brunhilde SbS. No issues whatsoever. I do understand there can always be a dud in the bunch.

But...

I do have a question though. If 4 people here bought the same mod, and 2 were complete duds, while 2 were not, would you call that an iffy product?

2 failures / 2 ok, that's a total fail in my book. A 50/50 kind of mod. What mod you might ask? The Paramour SbS ( ).

It seems like it’s been out long enough that if there were a lot of people having trouble with it we’d have heard about it.

I agree. The people on the forum seem to love it. Not like the Arez 120 where there was a common problem with many but the customer service was good and they replaced them.

Yeah, 50/50 would be a dud most likely. Especially if they were bought from different places coming out of different batches.

Kind of a small test group to claim scientific accuracy. But too much of a coincidence in such a small community and I don’t believe in coincidences.

There's also another Dvarw/Mixx and 2 Zenith IIs/KromaZs free roaming.

Are they free roaming in the kale field?

 

[ShowMeTwice]

I don’t mind a no click, and there are good clicks and bad clicks. Some of ‘em sound like I’m training my dog and they are definitely bad clicks.

Ooooh, I never thought of using a mod as a clicker training device.

This may be kind of a dumb question and probably not for the shiny thread but awhile ago there was a lot of talk about scissors. Precision type scissors.

The scissors I’ve been using are just not cutting it anymore !!!

Soooo instead of taking several hours of searching can anyone give me a quick recommendation for scissors to use for cutting rayon? Thanks all

EDIT: nvm I found the thread where everyone was talking scissors. Thanks anyways.

Best scissors for cutting wicks?

 

[chanelvaps]

Weve come a long way lol!!!

I remember too! 2016 maybe?

Which container?

 

[NolaMel]

Which container?

Geez, Katya, you can’t just looooook??? Fine! Second block, second section, third green one in the sixth row ( count left to right…. Right to left is full of fidget spinners and recipe boxes, you don’t want that one). Oops, forgot! Key is in the bridge, neon green floatie with an alien face stamped on it. Thanks for picking it up for me!! You’re a peach

I love you, Mel. You made me laugh--out loud. And I needed a laugh...

Which container?

I recently read that over 90 huge container ships are anchored right outside Los Angeles. And surprisingly the main reason is the lack of truck drivers. It appears that many of those jobs were filled by foreigners who aren’t able to get back into the US due to lack of manpower on the clerical side.

I did hear and read this from “reputable” news agencies and it seems to be reported by most of the media.

it’s really a global mess.

 

[Katya]

it’s really a global mess.

You can say that again. Whatever the cause, it's a friggin' mess everywhere you look.

Yep. EVERYWHERE. it’s amazing how one outbreak in a somewhat “isolated” or restricted country can end up killing millions of people and tank the global economy without repercussions.

Ive actually been surprised at how quickly the shipping was as compared to what was estimated. I’m on the east coast, Boston area,so I don’t understand if supplies from Asia go to our west coast then driven/flown to the east coast.

I use a pair of electricians scissors made by Klein. They work really well.

 

[Fidola13]

Sounds like you got a defective one. I'd request a replacement.

ive only ha one mod , my 1st “mod” (a pen type mod) auto fire on me. Well actually it was on the coffee table and I hadn’t even used it since the night before. I had just sat down when it started firing and did not automatically shut down as it was supposed to. By that time it was beginning to go into thermal overload. Somehow I grabbed it with a cloth and ran onto the deck and chucked across the lawn.

Scared the CRAP out of me. It could’ve exploded and burned down the house!!

Honestly my hands are shaking just remembering the incident. After that I started loosening the atomizer so the mod couldnt detect it and auto fire again. This was suggested to me by a more experienced person here.

I’ve gotten out of that practice again though. Bad me.

I think anyone who’s had that experience is probably a bit gun shy about it happening again.

Thanks! I saw a few electrician scissors on Amazon. They looked perfect for trimming the rayon.

Morning shinies

Buttons straw poll!
Since we all like different things, I'm curious. I love quieter buttons over loud clicky-clacky ones.

I think it's in part due to me working with 1500 noisy clicky-clucky-clacky chickens

I like them on the quieter side of things but to be honest I never even heard of a click being too loud.

Im a bit ocd so now I’ll be rifling all my mods to see which type is it. Lol!
