My VaporShark rDNA shipped today. Really looking forward to this lil guy. I have a chDNA30 tube mod, but this will be my first real EVOLV mod. Can't wait. LOL
Vapor Shark rDNA - Mechs / Mods - Advanced
Congrats! that mod is awesome, you'll have to let me know how it vapes after you get it. Decided to hold off on the hammer, and grabbed an hcigar Stingray clone, and a Tobeco Magma clone.

Many of us will justify our expenditures by quoting how much we are saving by not smoking cigarettes. Many will say that it took time and money to find the right mod, tank and e-juice to satisfy our individual needs. Many just like new shiny toys to play with, and it doesn't matter to them how much they spend. Many will be happy with that first $25 kit they got at the mini mart. But the real savings is in lives, and as they say "PRICELESS".

So very true IDonn0, I needed a new hobby, and I needed to quit smoking, so this is kinda a double whammy for me... expensive, yes.
But hell, it's also keeping me from buying much more expensive computer equipment! so hell, why not.

And I like life, had too many people die this past year from cancer, I owe it to my kids to do what I can so they dont have to bury me too before their ready.
that is (and I'll quote you again) "PRICELESS".

Congrats on the Russian. Don't they make an adapter for the VTR so you can attach any atty to it?

They do, but for some reason mine never worked, wont fire and the VTR cant see the ohms of the coil so it alarms out with "NON"
I should take it back, but honestly, I hate how attys look with the adapter, and never planned on using it anyway... so what the hell

EDIT: That got me curious, So I cleaned the contacts on the adapter, and it works! LOL :facepalm:
still hate the way it looks though :closedeyes:

I have been affected by this affliction. It is a disease that eats (your wallet) from the inside out... there is no known cure.

Hi i'm M3CH M0D M4DN355 and i'm a vaporholic...

On a serious note it is a great hobby to keep you occupied and off the smokes :vapor:

And a stash of shiney mods is a lot better than a pile of cigarette butts! :laugh:

Good luck to you and happy vaping!

Yeah the adapter kinda defeats the design of the VTR. Is the base where the 510 is, big enough for a 22mm atty?

Yeah, I'ts pretty backwards to use the extension... the 510 base is actually 22mm the only part that isn't big enough to fit a 22mm tank is the ring which is 19.5mm

Ok, VTR is broken [emoji24] long story short, take the battery out before you do modifications.

But the plus side is that I picked up a few toys to offset the VTRtastophy the dealer at the local B&M took pity on me and gave me his used king mod (it's piece of trash, but got me through a toigh spot)

Then ended up grabbing a Stingray clone, magma RDA and KFL+.... needless to say, im quite happy now.

Yep! 1 week in and I am accumulating my own little collection. Got my little cheap starter, picked up a itaste svd, a few Iclears, a few protanks, a d2 charger, 4 batteries, some spare parts, and about 10 juices. Man oh man.. i am really eye balling those stealth provaris! I will probably pick up a mvp on the way to work sunday. I work for 2 weeks out of town in the middle of nowhere and dont wanna be stuck without a working vape!!!

It's been a while, but here we are now. One month later, and there's a Magma clone, an Infinite CLT, I've stripped the paint from the Stingray and converted it to a hybrid, then ended up grabbing an IPV2. I'll post the copper Plume Veil clone when it comes in, should look sweet on the Stingray. Oh, I also cut the ring from my VTR to accept 22mm RBA's

New members of the family. I think I've found my home team.


Also pulled the plug on some 100mg nic, PG, VG, & TFA flavors from wizard labs.

And glass bottles for mixing and storage.

Plan to try some baby bottle Warmer forced steeping xP
