Don't have a lot to spend, but I am really tempted by that Kicked 50 cal. For now though I'm gonna have to settle on picking up a few spare batteries (particularly 18350s and 16340s) and maybe an I06 -- curious how it fares against an ordinary ol' 306. Maybe I'll do a comparison vid or something.

Thankfully I do have some extra money that i no longer have to spend on fixing my computer now that I discovered its problems were caused by me being a dumba$$ so I'll be stalking the site shortly. :D

Be sure to check out Scott's video review of the 50 cal, so sexy (the mod of course) and at an unbelievable price!
Yup! Scot did a good review, as expected from Scott.

He mentioned one point that has gotten me concerned and that is wrt the gunk on the DTs. I have no explanation for that with the exception that both Isaac and I vape VG liquids whilst Scott is a PG vaper. We know that PG is a mild solvent so that may be the cause of the oxidation, as I have been vaping mine without issues (308, 7mm, 50) and neither has Isaac. His point has been taken under advisement and I may make the DTs delrin with a brass option or brass with a delrin option. Looking at the latter as it is easier and quicker to carve a delrin tip than it is a brass one, cheaper too :)

BTW the 50 cal will retail for $79.99 vice the original $89.99 as advertised by Scott.

Eric,

I'm expecting the batteries some time next week. As for the IO6, there is no comparison. Just think of it as a smooth 306 on steroids. It produces tons of vapour, full flavour and a decent TH. OTOH if you are looking for heat and a reckless TH a la Cisco, you may be disappointed, but I don't think you will ;)

ETA: I could not post in the main forum, but yes JRCT will be stocking the kick in the future :) same locked in retail price as everyone else $45. I don't make the rules, just play by them :)

I do like head and TH, but it also depends on the juice and the device it's sitting on. I haven't tried any 306 atties yet (have one on the way), but I have a number of different ones on the way to try out and compare and review and such, so I thought of picking one up to add to the mix.

Now that's what I'm talkin' about. :D Any ETA?

Ive tried different 306s,510s and 801s and nothing comes close to the io6.Best atty on the market imo.
What ^^ he said ^^ Eric

Wrt the kick I can't divulge business discussions I am sure you know why. For the time being I will have enough kicks for my projects. This is a special order that was granted by Evolv some time ago and Brandon will come good with it. At this time, I am not permitted to sell a kick by itself, but I will be carrying them in the future once the dust from the onrush has settled. In short Brandon is extending a courtesy to me as a moder and new vendor. So yes in the future I will be one of if not the only vendor for them in Canada. The price point for the kick is a flat $45 for everyone (level playing field), we can charge higher but not lower.

Keep an eye on my newsletters, this is where subscribers and customers will get advanced notice of acquired products prior to them being made public - usually 24hrs advance notice.
