Does anyone really dangle their device around their neck from a lanyard?

Egads, I'd have to change my name to Flavor Flav :shock:
When a Madvapes first opened here, every Employee had a smok VV 1300mAh Ego with a Plastic Clearo on a Lanyard. That was what they pushed onto starters. I tried it with an Aerotank/Protank and it hung Sideways/Almost Upside Down!, so no-go for me lol
A little 900mAh Ego with an EBC tank are just fine on a Lanyard though! :D
I just took dinner out of the oven (yes, I'm a man and I cook), and I have a question...........
What is it about an oven mitt that can turn a man in his 40's into a child with a hand puppet???
All the best Chef's are men!! :p:cool:
 
I'm starting to miss my iStick 30. Kittens pulled it down while it was charging and damaged the USB connection. The last time I damaged a USB connection it was on my computer. Didn't know it until I plugged something in and fried my motherboard. Needles to say, the I Stick has been retired. :oops:

On the positive side it gave me an excuse to get that Provari.

One of the biggest reasons I hate USB, especially Micro USB.. Can be very Flimsy, and some boards do not have them soldered in heavy enough... Sorry to hear your iStick broke! :(

I do when I go fishing. I learnt the hard way how easy it was to drop a PV when there is water around.

That's the same reason why I went with the Provari instead of getting another iStick (the blem wasn't much more). Still, I miss its size. Is it just me or is it getting harder to find tiny mods?

Check out the new COV Volt. Talk about tiny.
But with tiny mods comes.........................
Tiny batteries.
It'll still do 40 watts and can't remember if it does TC or not though.

I find it can be quite challenging to find small mods. Took me a while to find the istick 30 online (Canada). Almost each time I found one it would say "in stock". When I tried to place an order it read "out of stock". Frustrating.

I don't feel like everyone wants a big ol' box mod. Am I wrong?

I have been looking at that for a bit now. It is actually too small. I still need some weight and size to hold. Even the original 30w Isticks took me some grip effort to stop it floating in my hand.

That thing looks smaller than some of the tanks I have.

It's gotten great reviews. I looked at one in a local B&M. I definitely plan to pick one up and pair it with a Goblin Mini V2 for a nice stealth vape for work and such.

Yep, that's yer story and yer stickin to it...

More seriously, that's why I never charge anything off my computer. Wall warts are cheaper.

Well, I don't :) Single 18650 is fine by me!

I was looking at the Sigelei Mini Book, but I've heard mixed reviews about its durability. I'm the one who would most likely drop it.

I still think the VTC Mini is a great single 18650 mod. Light, built well, TC ( in SS as well, and user TCR's), and upgradeable firmware.

BTW, ProVape is selling 2.5's right now for $26. And to think I paid $179 not that long ago, lol. Still don't regret it though. Great mod.

I never charge a mod from a PC USB, nor do I vape them while charging, regardless of whether or not the manufacturer says it can be done. IMO accident waiting to happen.

Thanks for the heads up! Was hoping for a Glovari but for that price I can live with a pink one.

I don't either. It was my keyboard I was plugging in. Some how it created a short.
