As most of us know there are some items of vaping hardware that are just about impossible to get. I think the most ungettable of them right now is this:



I'm on the waiting list of every website that sells it, and it's out of stock on every one of them. I got a notice from one of them in email, and was right on top of it from the *ding* sound, but when I got to the site it was out of stock, I could not access my account on there, and apparently during the time it took for their email to reach me it sold out again.

I called madvapes just now and asked about it, and Johnny there told me they only make a couple hundred of them at a time as it's only part of their operation, and when it goes up online it's always sold out in less than 30 minutes. Yeow!

One could start a successful business just making and selling this thing! I've been trying to get one for 2 months now!

If anyone knows a more ungettable thing please let me know, but I think this is the most ungettable.

Yeah, that was a good one, and I was very lucky to get one! The instant my email dinged I was on their page ordering that puppy as fast as I could type. It's a very nice thing to have. If you are using a mech the voltage indicator is also very nice to have, but impossible to get. vape King near me has one, but they keep close watch over it and they tell me they can't get another one.

What is it?

I've heard pluid is hard to come by..

And mint vintage swatch watches.

It's the thingy you screw into the end of your mech or other mod to see what happens when you push the button, how many volts is coming out of it. It's nice to have if you are having firing button issues, or want to see how fast you are vaping your batteries down.

Did they make a swatch watch you could vape on?

I managed to snag one by hitting the website at just the right time.

The reason they go so fast is that they are bought up in bulk by people that sell them on e-bay. Go to e-Bay and you'll find plenty...at rather inflated pricing.

Uhhh, yeah.... NO, I never buy anything on Ebay, and I'm not going to enrich anyone doing that. Yeah, I know that's capitalism in the fine American tradition, but I'm not going to pay their inflated prices. People vote with their money and their feet, and I'm not going to give my business to anyone creating an artificial shortage so as to profit from it.

I can't get the page to load all the way, but it's a nice looking unit... and out of stock on their page, just like the same thing is here.

They want 20 euros for it , and I'm not sure what that comes out to in US dollars. With shipping on top of it from Greece it might come out to $30 US or more. Madvapes sell theirs for half that. There is also the Tankometer, sold in the UK, and they want 22 pounds for that. Nice looking device, but I'd rather not pay that much and wait that long. Madvapes is in North Carolina, and I'm in Florida, so I'd save a lot and get it a lot quicker.

I want one of these.
It's a coil-making-thingy.
Can't get it, cause it's not an actual product. Yet.

Are you planning to?

View attachment 249772[/I would totaly buy one of those if that was the name "coil-making-thingy" :laugh:

What size pins would work best for most, or just make a 5/16" hole and let them use a drill bit?

Hmm.. I've never seen one of those. What I do when I make coils for my AGA-T2 is cut off the ends of a Q-tip, and use the stick to wind the coil on. It just fits in the wick hole and lets me get all the loops lined up nice and pretty before I pulse it and slip the wick down through it, which fits quite nicely being the same size as the Q-tip stick.

I may try to build myself something - I saw this on a different thread.
My idea is to just have a screw/washer in a block of wood to hold one "leg" of the wire, and then a couple different gauge drill bits I can wrap on. We'll see - if it works, and it's handy, I'll post a pic or drawing or something.
