    Morning shinies ;)

    I'd want to get rid of them, too, but reading your story still made me grieve for the poor babies. I was reminded of an episode of a Jacques Cousteau show that we watched in the sixth grade (the teacher was lazy that day, I guess), during which dozens and dozens of adorable baby sea turtles making their way to the ocean after hatching were picked off one by one by seagulls before they reached the water. I believe I cried.

    My reaction was to vacuum every single inch of my house, just in case.

    Good evening everyone! I hope you all had great weekends.

    I found a site called squonkmods that supposedly has them available. I’ve never heard of this place and was wondering if anyone else has either heard of or purchased from them.


    And in a late night window shopping trip which we all know is dangerous for me-I ordered a Rebel Squonker DNAc 75 from the UK. I ordered a blue one. I may have ordered it with different color buttons but I can’t remember. I’m pretty psyched about. Not to sure of the position of the squonk bottle but the reviews I’ve read were good.

    I need help reminding myself that I’m supposed to be REDUCING the amount of vape gear is my goal NOT adding to it.

    Here’s a pick of the blue I ordered. Kinda wish I had ordered purple though now. Too many choices!!

    That’s really sharp. I really like the blue. Are they pricey? I’ve never looked at them.

    That blue one was 189 pounds. It’s easier to push Buy than if it was in dollars lol! It’s made by 3D printing. I’ve always thought they were much more but considering their DNA 75C … they also have other DNA 100 pr DNA 250. Those mods were bigger though shaped like a dual topside or minikin. I never really liked that hand feel and that’s why I sold most r my dual topsides. Also, With the way I’ve been vaping the last several years I don’t need that much power. I vape between 30 and 40 watts mostly depending on the chip/ mod.

    I was sitting in the kitchen this morning drinking my tea and checking out a Provari in the sunlight. Plain unpainted SS. It's just such a cool mod, Perfect design and the engraving is so cleanly done. Makes me glad I was around during the Provari era. I also have one Goldie and half a dozen painted. Not altogether practical. I use them with KFL's at 3.8V. The batteries don't last long in them, they give up when they get down to around 3.6V.

    The paint wasn't so good. A couple that I used regularly are all chipped and grungy looking. The stainless and the Goldie don't have scratch on them after years of use. I sometimes think about stripping the painted ones but I don't know how to do that.
    I have several Provaris that will end up on the classifieds unfortunately. They just don’t have enough power for my vaping. I just don’t enjoy MTL vaping. I dread selling them though because they are so incredibly beautiful especially the ones with etchings on the tube. The P3 I have goes up to 30 watts and it’s such a great looking mod it makes me sad. Unfortunately none of them had had the software upgrade that increased wattage or something of the sort.

    I got a bunch of them several years ago when eBay was open to vape gear. I think many of us purchased quite a few from a woman selling new ones right after or when Provari was closing down. I also have all kinds of end caps and accessories for them but I honestly know absolutely nothing about them.

    Here are a couple of them

    I did a little shopping today, no Good Wood just yet though! I got myself a new mobile phone!! I settled on an iPhone number 13 this this time for an upgrade and I must say that it's very sleek and sexy:thumb: now comes the fun part, setting it up:rolleyes:

    I have the 13 and like it. If your previous phone was Apple then you can just sit the phones beside each other and they will transfer everything. If you have an Apple Watch then you have to disconnect the watch from the old phone first before doing the transfer.

    I just (Black Friday) upgraded from a 10Xr to a 16 and transferred that way. It was dead easy and painless. IIRC I had to re pair all my bluetooth devices. The only difference really is the faster speed everything happens.

    There are 2 YT videos I followed on what to turn off and on by user '
    Payette Forward' for iOS 18.2.

    Speaking of Provaris...my great friend @chanelvaps piffed me a couple of Provari Minis after I posted something last year about wishing I'd been vaping when they were still available.
    It was a great surprise and so generous.
    They were shipped from the USA in November, arrived in Australia on 22 December and haven't moved past a "facility" in Sydney.
    I've never had any parcel sit in Sydney for that long . Normally once it hits our shores, a parcel gets transferred into the local mail network within a day, maybe two.
    I fear they've been stopped by our customs anti-vape nazis. Hope I'm wrong.

    We are having the best summer, though lots of ppl probably disagree with me. Much much cooler temperatures than usual, max of 20ish C (70F) instead of the usual 30ish C (85F).
    70s is the perfect temp imo! Enjoy!
