Aha, excellent idea!!

I really prefer the angled adapters; with those I can use my highly-preferred acrylic small Ming driptips. I've found the angled adapters at both madvapes and ECBlendFlavors. But I got that red knucklehead a while back and had to put it in the drawer, as it's more tomato red, and my red CF4 is more cherry/strawberry red... now with my kbox mini, that tomato red looks good! But sometimes the knuckleheads will wiggle around when you try to take a hit, which is infuriating; the angled adapters stay put.

No, hejira's endura
Ahh could be but mine does tend to flood a bit and put juice in my mouth is I suck too hard.
I had gotten used to Subtank Mini's. I won this T18 and am going to pass it on to my brother but needed to see how it would work for him, so I tried it out and it is still under review testing. Decent rig, a bit hot if you suck too slow but nice if you suck moderate. No leaks at all so far. Will likely send it out this weekend if I can talk him into trying it.. fingers crossed. He has been programmed by the "YOU ARE VAPING ANTIFREEZE" crowd.

Quick question - I'm vaping on my Innokin Endura T18 w/ prism tank - and all of a sudden it feels like little drops of eliquid are spraying into my mouth?

Is that really happening? Or is it just a sensation? If it is happening, what's up with that?

And perhaps a bit of condensation?

My thoughts as well. Condensation into / through the drip tip isn't uncommon at all. Pull and clean it, and swab out the well it sits in.

Uh huh. We picked up a ....... a ...... few. ;)
(not that I have a klue what to do with them, but I've got some!)

It was Miss Scarlett in the Conservatory with the rope. She thought it would work as wick...

Hopefully the Vape Deities will strike down the FDA, but otherwise, when the time comes you'll have lots of help. (Just glad I increased my stash of KFs before you got there!

Amazing to see / hear / experience all the little nuances - makes my head spin a bit!

Yep this is such a customizable thing; it's kinda like trying to figure out all the different apps that are available for a smart phone -- first you need to know why you need that app! :lol:

If you like the idea of the knuckleheads, ECBlendFlavors has a really nice stainless knucklehead that never wiggles around; I like it a lot, but since the weather's gotten cold, I avoid metal driptips like the plague; it's like sucking on an icecube! :lol:

There is no try. Do. ;)

Uh, counting the 4 V4s I just got at a ridiculously low price, it's now at, er, 26? Of course, that's really only 1.6 spares per in service unit...

I got my new black Magma as a nod to the Vapocalypse, but I still prefer my Achilles; I can *tolerate* the Magma's looser draw, but it's not my preference. I've got the new magma/kbox sitting here in front of me, along with one of my CF4/Achilles, and I have to keep making myself take hits from the magma, to get the new coil and wick broken in. But for vaping pleasure... Achilles all the way.

Wish to hell Yeahsmo would get the lead out and get the Achilles v2 cloned.

So...I picked out 2 very PRETTY kayfun clones - not the cheapest, mind you, But a nice balance of form / function/ price.

Someone's recommending I go with EH Pro clones - they're just not so pretty, but a good deal.

Is it just how much you're willing to gamble on fasttech?

I think we need more interesting colors - aesthetics are really lacking in RTAs. Especially in o-rings and such!

I'm realizing though that aesthetics probably shouldn't be such a priority since it's all about the vape itself.

Hmmm- has this conversation been had here?

I STRONGLY recommend AGAINST EHpro kayfuns; they can't deliver half the flavor of Tobecos (or authentics, but I'm guessing you didn't win the powerball lotto). But Tobeco kayfun clones are an order of magnitude better than EHpro kayfun clones.

As for Slowtech... depends on how long you're willing to wait. If you don't order RIGHT NOW, you're going to be running into chinese new year, which means waiting TWICE as long as you ordinarily would, which is already way too long.

Roger that.

I appreciate the feedback. I'm willing to spend more for quality here.

Me too! I'll only order from FT if the thing I want can't be found ANYWHERE else at any price.

You have all 3 to compare, Andria?
