$2?? OK, for that price, even if it turns out to be terrible, it's worth a shot. I wanted some mod guards anyway. Those were $1.95 compared to the tank. I guess I'll find if I was suckered into it, but that just can't be passed up.

Funny thing is, I've been thinking of late I wanted to try a SQuape anyway.

For months I've been missing my guava juice; just continuously forgot to pick up some. Checked out a new B&M in the hood and holyyyyy cowww they carry a TON of different juices...stuff I've read about in the threads.

They carry a guava which smelled heavenly so I bought a 30 ml bottle. Filled up a tank, got meself a cold drink and positioned myself on the patio for a nice, refreshing guava vape.

*COUGH* *SPUTTER* *COUGH* What the? For some reason the juice catches me in the back of the throat. Yikes, I can't stop coughing. I tried lowering the wattage...lower...lower...nope. Dang.

So disappointed. Oh well, at least I've discovered 2 things:
1. If I add half blue haze to it, it's fine...takes the edge off.
2. Never buy a 30 ml bottle of juice I've never tried before.

Lesson learned.

Have a good weekend all!

Hi Sweetness! Long time no see :(. Keeping well?

Got my last vapemail yesterday. Snagged a Reuleaux 75 (Tiffany Blue) Evic VTwo Mini in scorching Red, and a Vaporesso Target Mini.

ZOMG! Lurve lurve lurve!!!!

TBH, I cannot think of anything else I want to buy :shock:

I'm contemplating some new wire (cough cough JK....) but if I don't, I'm not even jonesing for it.....

I may have mentioned it on this forum, but Kidney Puncher has the EHPro Squape (R)eloaded on clearance for $2 each (Yes, that's two bucks). I put two in my cart while I was picking up some other small stuff and they are on the way.

They supposedly have no logo on them, but the reviewers below the item love it. For that price I had to jump. Who cares if it's a good clone with a plain exterior? So are my Kayfuns. I've picked up a double handful of sales on older RBA's lately for my FDA insurance stash.

Here's the KP site picture.

Enjoy yer new prizes! You can't think of anything else you want to buy? Jeez, I sure can!!! :)

Cheers!

I'm keeping well, thanks :)

Both my parents have passed - Mom had Parkinson's. Dad cared for her and died three years later. Both were young. Mom was 9 days shy of 71, and Dad was 72. That you're there for them rocks! (I giggled at "parental units" - a college roommate and I used that term as well as "'rents" :) )

Just mixed up bases to make over 600ml of juices. That just makes DIY so easy!!!! Just gotta do the maths :D

Even though I'd sworn off internal battery mods, I kinda want another Target Mini. That thing is just so day-um CUTE!!!!

Yeah... I already have a Squape R clone. I think mine might be Tobeco... works fine. At least I'll keep telling myself that as the Squapes were gone AND Kidney Puncher won't ship to me.

Sad face :-(

I did get a new semi-tootler, though... found a big Buddha mini. Why was this tank not a huge hit? It's pretty freakin' awesome!

Yeah, it has a screw bottom fill method, and yeah, the color's not quite right... but the deck is nice, the build is easy, the air is adjustable for anything from tootle to slow and restricted lung...

I did not know there was a little Buddah. I think thats a great color, sure is a good change from silver or black.

Whats with the extra air hole on the deck?

I built my coil so that it rests between the 2 holes on the deck. I get air to the bottom and sides of the coil. The flavor is intense... I'd have to say it's comparable to a Kayfun... maybe the 4 with the subohm upgrade... maybe the 3 mini...

I feel fortunate to have already sealed the deal on the two Squape Reloaded clones I ordered! You guys cleaned out Kidney Puncher in record time. I hope they all work well. I ordered mine based on the $2 price and the reviews at the site.

I'm confident they'll work fine. I have a stack of EHPro RBA's and all of them vape great.

I'm sorry your "rents" (I like that) were so young when they passed. I feel very fortunate mine are still around. I'm da baby of my siblings but the only retired one so I'm more available to see the folks.

I have peered at the Target mini meseff. Looks awfully cute! Also been eyeing the e-vic vtc mini. Took a peek at one in a new local B&M last week. $100 is a little steep for me (Canuck pricing). Heck, the AIO was bloody $40! Yeeeeah, no.

Out into our postage stamp garden I go (condo living = teeny garden space). Have a fahbulous Sunday!

Cheers!

I build mine the same way, one tasty vape! Definitely an underappreciated RTA.

Good to see some Buddha Mini love in this thread!

I really wish my trailer hadn't killed my disbosable income the last couple of months! Some of these deals going on are just WOW!

Heatvape Invader Mini - $9.99
It sucks being broke right now, but some of these finds are sure making me feel better about what might be coming.

When you do your first build, tease some wick about halfway down the vertical channels to prevent gurgling and leaking. Put just enough in there to fill the top half of the channel cut , wet it with juice to plaster it, and press it in lightly. Don't pack it too tight. Then, screw on the chimney. That will fix the gurgling and leaking problems people report.

Thanks! Always nice to have a head's up before a first build. Even though I know it might take a few builds to get a tank running smoothly, it's more gratifying to get close the first time. I got lucky with my Merlin that way. It wasn't until a later rewicking I realized what not paying attention can result in.

TBH, I'll still be a bit surprised if it really shows up in the mail at that price. I'm half expecting a "oops, we had a website glitch" email on that order.
