If you could only buy 2, and only 2, one for 14500 battery, and one for 18650 battery, which 2 would you buy?

I guess for flood and throw the Sipik's, as I said jack of all trades, masters of none

The Convoy series is also some of the best "budget" lights, but they don't zoom, I have one of these inbound as well
$18.03 Convoy S5 Cree XM-L T6-4C 723-Lumen 4300-4500K 2-Group 3/5-Mode LED Flashlight - 1*18650 / AMC7135*6 / carrying strap at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I carry a SK68 1 mode (off/on) with a 14500 in my pocket everywhere I go (I will probably go back to AA or NiMH rechargeables, bright enough and run about 1.5hrs, with Li Ion only about 40-50min but are extra bright)

Here is a real world view of the output of the SK98 (flood mode big round light, throw mode can throw a few hundred yards)

Getting my first FT order ready. Picking up the Omega dripper mentioned earlier and a Kracken. I also want to grab an inexpensive Kayfun clone, just to see what's the fuss. Any recommendations? Every time I start reading reviews or discussions I talk myself out of them.

Join the club ... I want a Kayfun 3.1 so bad I can taste it, but every time I am ready to pull the trigger, I see another mixed review. Some people got a great Kayfun, and many others received one with issues. The wait is too long to get one, only to then have a problem. When I start seeing across the board consistent reviews, then I will buy it. But I really really want a 3.1.

I'm not 100% on this, but I had a packages sent Singapore post ln late Nov. and another sent a week or so later. they both left china at the same time a few days later. When it gets to Singapore it will be picked up inthe postal system and track in USPS. I am pretty sure that it remains in China or Hong Kong untill they get a pallet to ship to Singapore. Have you tried tracking with Quantum?

the 22mm patriot DC dripper for $6 looks great, however without a drill press the one hole is kinda worthless.
The metal isn't very thick, but you may have a hard time making the second hole, depending on the quality of your drill and bits.

any suggestions on a good 22mm RDA or RTA?

I have R91, and a KF 3.1, and a Kraken.

Ill prob get the 22mm patriot.
Take a look at the Omega. The holes are kind of low/ close to the deck, and some say the holes aren't in the "right place", but at least there are two of them. It's worth looking at, cheap, and 22mm. :2c:
If you know anyone that can drill out a hole for you, the Patriot would be great. It's a huge, tall chamber though, if you're used to an IGO-L or W the difference is noticeable.

Get a taifun gt
That's an excellent tank, but it's not 22mm. It's almost 23mm.

Add $1 you can get the "Authentic Evod.." they have the stainless in stock.
haha! Basic and DOS for me IN THE EARLY 80s as well! I switched majors in the middle of Fortran, or maybe I took a P/F, I forget now :p I believe, Maggie, my love, that you and I are of an age :p

As far as this little Raspberry Pi - it is a magnificent concept and should get many nerds/geeks... and I forgot the other word I was told to use instead of these outdated ones LOL My kids try to keep me 'in the know' so my terminology is up to par, but... sheesh, I forget some of the words :p And yes, PCU the size of a cell phone was an over the top description :p I was thinking LARGE! Ha!



Uhhhhhh, I have bought these for years to use with my eGos at work, the last batch was pretty bad from FastTech. They were just a quick clearo to grab and fill when I wasn't home. I will tell you that they are a hit and miss, some are missing a notch at the bottom, so I've had to file them down to get some air through them, some juices, whether classified as tank-crackers or not, wear them out pretty quick, and many come with hairline cracks already, so if it disintegrates in your hand, you found a cracked one. The vape flavor quality may last a day with heavy vaping before it's gunked up, and then you trash them because they are not rebuildable.

If you want some suggestions, I would say to get :

#1 https://www.fasttech.com/p/1536500 RG400 Bottom Coil Glass Clearomizer (4.0mL) 1.8+2.2ohm GLASS & SS / RECOILABLE
#2 https://www.fasttech.com/p/1528500 RG200 Bottom Coil Clearomizer (2.0mL) 1.8+2.2ohm GLASS & SS / RECOILABLE

Replacement coils if you do not recoil your own:
$4.80 Authentic Protank Clearomizer Coil Heads (5-Pack) - 1.5ohm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$4.88 Authentic Protank Clearomizer Coil Heads (5-Pack) 5-pack - 2.5

I have these and many more since I use eGos at work & also on walks for stealth vaping. They are not bad, the coils can be replaced, but the glass ones above are my favorites because only dropping them on concrete has destroyed mine =]
https://www.fasttech.com/p/1579400 Calabash Style Bottom Coil Clearomizer (2.8mL) 2.4ohm <- LOVE IT!!!!
https://www.fasttech.com/p/1567100 V5 Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer foggy version / 1*airhole <- LOVE IT!!!!
https://www.fasttech.com/p/1490700 Vivi Tank BCC Bottom Coil Clearomizer (3.5mL) 2.4ohm <- LOVE IT!!!!
https://www.fasttech.com/p/1536403 eVod-C BBC Bottom Coil Clearomizer (2.0mL) [Polycarbonate] 2.4ohm
https://www.fasttech.com/p/1456403 GS-H5 Bottom Coil Clearomizer (3.0mL) [Polycarbonate] 2.4ohm

Adding:

$23.36 T4 Electronic Cigarettes Round Mouth Atomizer (6-Pack / 2.4mL) 6-pack - ships with one of each color / metal drip tip at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping - TIP DISINTEGRATES and the vape is not that great... looks gorgeous on an eGo, but eh...

Ordered 2 T2 branded liquids from Fasttech. The reason I ordered this brand is these are the only ones in Fastech which have high VG content.

https://www.fasttech.com/p/1464604
The Apple flavour is very very mild - almost not there. And it seems to choke my coil quite frequently - i.e - nothing happens when I press my battery button.

https://www.fasttech.com/p/1464607
The Coffee flavour is pretty decent - but the choking is there though much lesser than the apple flavour.

Both the bottles have the liquid dropper (the ink filler kind).

Never going to order T2 again.

Placed an order for Hangsen Ruyan 4 & Liqua Berry Mix & Apple.

Let's see how they turn out.

Think my next purchase will be (in my newest hobby)

$16.54 Convoy C8 Cree XM-L T6-3C 2-Group 3/5-Mode LED Flashlight - 1*18650 / AMC7135*8 / smooth reflector at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Quite good reviews from the "budget flashlight" guys on this one...utilitarian light, but the guys at fasttech maxed it out, XM-L2 and 2800mA driver with 2 sets of modes (can hide the stupid SOS and strobes...I hate those!) It does have the firmware flashable micro controller though :D

Apparently they sell the C8 host body by itself too! SMO reflector too

Sooooo many toys!

that is EXACTLY where i am with a kayfun. though, the ehpro and hcigar clones both seem to get solid reviews on here. at least in the posts i have seen.

thanks for the suggestions!
i may just try both the omega and the patriot. Gotta get the cart up to $20 for the free tracking! (is the excuse i tell myself as i continue to shop...)

They have an omega clone with two holes and adjustable air flow. I'm waiting for delivery on that one for myself. Ordered that already.

$6.66 Omega Style Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

If it's any good, may pick up another. Even comes with a wide bore tip.

That's an excellent tank, but it's not 22mm. It's almost 23mm.

I gotta make nice with one of the vape shops, im under the impression that there are a couple ones locally that will drill holes.
And thanks S, you are exactly right, 23mm for the TF is why i didnt order.
My next mech will be a 21mm or a 23mm so that i can play with more RBAs.



Meanwhile ive been waiting over a month for a 3.1 to ship!!!

In my last order i rolled the dice and decided to try some juice. The only one that stands out and is really enjoyable is the Hangsens Lemon. It is a strong and sweet lemon flavor that i have not been able to find in the states. I have had a couple decent lemonades from US vendors. but i gotta say this basic lemon is quite good.
all the other juice was garbage, the Liqua American is an exception and was decent. Thanks to whomever recommended that one :)

With another FT order in my very near future, i'd like to add some gear/accessories. Maybe some ready wires, and?? What would be some good toys to add?
