Hiya folks :)

Hope y'all had a good weekend,I've been kinda busy with my pops and this heat wave we got going on does really take the spark out and leaves you in no mood to do anything at all.

Still had one more review to get done so i just finished it:

https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/threads/freemax-maxpod-3-review-by-javichu.975142/#post-23532390

Now the rest of Sunday is for me alone...well not really,taking care of my pops is a 24/7 type of job but now at least i can enjoy some leisure time.

Using my smok RPM 5 for now,still have like 3 coils left but by the end of the month I'm getting the itank and a whole bunch of coils so will see how that goes.

I know its hard to believe but i still don't have my new desktop pc yet,economically humble and modest people like yours truly has to be on the look out for good offers.
So far just got the motherboard and an awesome Intel Core i7-12700F 4.9 GHz,GPU's are so expensive at the moment it is taking a while to get a hold on one at a decent price.
Maybe if the Nerd gods smile upon me i will get it all resolved by next week,lets hope hehe

Off to watch a couple of episodes of the Newsroom,yeah this must be like a 12th time i started binge watching it again....just love it.

Talk to you later fellow vaperinos :)

    what do you like about it? I don’t know much about it. Is it semi regulated?

    I’ve never had a semi mechanical squonk mod. I like how it fires and like pressing the button to pump instead of squeezing a bottle. It’s not much bigger than the Abyss which I love and the fire button position is good for me. I do wonder how long the pump will last.

    Think I'm going to order a couple vaporesso itanks & coils.

    You won’t be disappointed. Such a great tank. First one I’ve tested and bought extra coils for in a long time.

    do you have the Revenant squonker? It also uses a pump to bring the liquid to the atty. it took me awhile to find the sweet spot from getting the wicks saturated to over pumping it but once I figured that out I liked it. I ended up buying two. Well of course I did lol!

    I will say though that if I had to choose I’d choose the squeeze bottle siphon way. Someone else mentioned how it sucks back excess liquids and that is a pro to me over the pump. Maybe I’m just use to using the squeeze and am more comfortable with it.

    Yihi came out with a mechanized pump version squonker. I can’t remember why I never bought it since I like Yihi products. Maybe it was a mech.

    I don’t feel comfortable enough with myself to use a mech. I have too many lapses and I like having some backup safety ground. I have several semi regulated mods in my stash.

    I don’t enjoy the fact that with each draw as the battery is weakened the vape gets weaker and weaker. Bahhumbug! That would drive me nuts swapping out batteries all day lol!

    The Luna is a popular semi regulated. I have a couple but don’t use them. But others swear by them. Do you own one?

    I promised myself I wouldn’t buy any more Vaporesso GT coils after my last FT shopping spree. Honestly I can’t imagine using up all the ones I have then I see this and wonder if a couple more wouldn’t be a good idea lol!

    I’m not purchasing any other sub ohm attys that don’t fit the GT coils. I think they are a fantastic coil that even with sweet juice and chain vaping lasts without needing to be replaced. Plus the available options from mesh, ceramic, SS316 and as well a coils that range from .15 to .5 ohms. Really can’t go wrong. Oh and price is reasonable too especially when on sale.

    I may have asked this before so sorry if I’m repeating myself but does anyone have any experience with the DNA 100 chip that’s in the LV Hyperion? I’ve only ever used to 75C and 250C.

    if so what re your thoughts? Is it a refurbished older chip or new to the game?

    I'm a man incapable of hating...but pre orders comes damn close.
    Don't even know why I did it on the Hussar BXR...but I did :(
    My money has been drawing interest for FT for exactly a month now. That's ok I guess...as I am kind of a social share holder there ;)
    Now they're getting stock in, but not the colour I want. I wanted the black/silver, but the first to arrive (today) will be the white/silver.
    So i've been in deep contemplation for 3 days now...and i've decided to take it.
    My army of black mods will be in total shock when a dainty white lady hangs out with them :D
    Ah well the world is changing...and that can only be a good thing.
    Can't help but wonder how many guys are walking around with white mods though...? :p

    Sharpist is red. But I'd go for the silver for me

    I love the red but I’m not crazy about that fade from black look paint job that a lot of mods are going with lately. I wish it was all red. It’s not thaaat noticeable but it’s glaring to me if you know what I mean.

    I agree with you that the “sharpest” looking is the silver. I like the gunmetal but it may prove difficult to find a matching atomizer color. All gunmetals are not alike lol!

    if there aren’t many then there should be and you should lead the charge! Snowflakes lol!

    do you have a pic of it to see?

    I don’t have any of the ones you mentioned. It did take a little getting used to timing the pump. When flavor drops then I push the button and count to 5-6. I’ve been running a recurve v2 on it with a single 3mm .35 ohm coil. The 21700 lasts a long time before I notice a drop off.

    I just started using squonk mods regularly since I got the Centaurus BF. I never really took an interest in them before.
