Here is the shiny I got myself for my b'day last week. Quite the drip tip, eh?

    Morning shinies ;)

    The V2 is a dual coil so I haven't tried it but I can say I
    am happy with all my QP rtas (all are single coil).

    Seconded, go for it. I don't know if it's the same with the dual coil @Z-Lee but really short 4mm legs brings out the best in the MR.

    anyone else have a guard creature?

    Yes. My very highly trained protection German Shepherd, Carli, would very efficiently dispatch any would be thief in less than a second.

    One command in German, Fass!, and she will attack and bite. :greengrin:

    Then after a little bit more research, ended up getting a Miboxer C4-12 for myself. Not that I needed a 4th, but you know...

    Anyway, this is my first Miboxer product - anyone wanna share any experiences with this brand/product?

    It's an excellent charger. I've had zero issues with mine. Bought it in 2019. I would absolutely buy another one.

    A solder sucker is great to have and saves on solder wick, though a touch up with the wick is sometimes needed.

    Still have my Ungar desoldering pump from the 80s. Used it quite a bit when replacing IC chips and other components when I was in field service.

    Noted, thank you!

    I bought 2 of them. Gotta take full advantage of a deal like this. :w00t:

    Good to hear. It's the only 4-bay charger I could find that charges up to 3A with all bays occupied. Not that I'll be charging batteries at 3A, but I certainly don't want to be waiting for 4x 21700 at 0.5A, lol.

    Unless you only have 4 21700s the wait doesn't really matter...

    I'm declaring when Sunday bites it's okay to bite back with tequila!

    Don't forget to eat the gusano de maguey!!!

    Mezcal-with-worm.jpg


    It's the larvae of a moth. It's called a gusano de maguey, named for the maguey plant it feeds off of and which tequila and Mezcal are both made from. Totally edible and safe. :greengrin:

    Impatient me used to always charge at 2A, regardless of how many I had in rotation. Partly so I wasn't charging them unattended. Mainly because I'm a really inpatient person.

    I've dropped it down to 1A X 4 (attended with front row seats, eating popcorn) to improve how long my 21700s stay optimal. But if time is short, it's good to have the faster option
