LOL I went to buy one from them too but left it in my cart because I'm waiting on their reply to an email I sent asking which spare tube color matches the lite, if any...

it comes with the SS 18490 tube, i like that color so it matches any SS RDA / RTA I'm going to put on top (good luck finding any that matches the body)

I also have a 18650 Z2 tubes from mods i bought back in the day, one is copper and one navy blue i think. Too back they are back in my home country :/

the one from house of hybrids comes unpainted and dont feel like diy's just to cram a DNA40 (which are hard to find these days)

I bought a Solara DNA 40 here a few days ago and super happy with it at 15 watts using an Ares mtl tank (had two solaras before, one failed and the other i gave away before coming to usa, but nice device in the hand)

Yes, this would be my second ZNA lite - about 3 years or so ago I left it on my desk at work over an extended weekend, like memorial day or similar, and was not there upon my return. This was when I was programming for an insurance broker in a swanky building, so you could generally expect things to be where you left them... but... must have been the KF4 which was on it, bringing the total up to around $400 those bastards got from me. I hope the cleaning crew person found the atty to be as painfully tedious as everyone else seemed to (not me, replaced that kf4 long ago).

Hey, how do I get the 15%?

Thanks so much, my good sir... yea too bad you don't have those tubes, never seen a navy one. I have a couple extra top and bottom caps still, ss, rose gold, and gunmetal I think, and a rose gold tube... say how ridiculous is it with the 650 tube? Although, occasionally I come across a shop that still has some AW 490's still in inventory, bought a bunch when I found 'em too..

Also, I have the 813 module, if you are ever looking for one... Think there's picks on my for sale post in here somewhere ;)

Sure thing,

Tubes are at home back in Venezuela, will have parents bring it when they visit

This is the blue one (without the lettering), he calls it aluminum graphite but it's bluish to me:

This is the DXC 650 copper:

I have both the full mech not just the tube

So have things stabilized there? Last I heard, it seemed things were still rapidly deteriorating, but with our apparent desire to flush our economy down the shitter, maybe we will all start heading down there!

I was actually talking about the AW batteries, I used to think it was all hype but a few years ago I realized they really were some of the best/safest around. It's a shame they are apparently defunct. I heard the factory was flooded but they were going to re-open but that a couple years ago now...

Yea, I do like that alum graphite color...

I was actually talking about the AW batteries -> AW Batteries were always re-wraps, AW standing for Andrew Wang, he just picked high quality suppliers and had good QC control. you can count with your fingers the number of companies making IMR batteries (outside of china)

I do like that alum graphite color --> yeas it is a very pretty mod, but the Zen Switch is pretty bad for sub-ohms below 0.7, the springs collapsed often, so stopped using it. Still, tube is good for the ZNA althought i think i'll keep it on 18490

Here it is along a few older gear I’ve been playing with again since lockdown

Need to get me a KFL’19 in 22mm for it, mine is 24 :/

Nice! Wait, is that the lite or DIY kit one?

Here's the old zna clone (that has the typical 20:1 threadings not the HoH threadings unfortunately) that I still use all the time. Looks great with the little dvarw:

I see you got the old gg back there too (let me know if you ever go to sell)! I had the kts clone, was as close to a real GG I could find for a long time and recently I picked up the 10 year anniversary GG:

It's the ZNA Lite from thezfo.com

I had an A-Mod ZNA 18650 years ago, Z2 threaded but went to sleep every 30-secs, that type of mod kills me every time

Nice you got the GGTX, I had a 18350 GG Stealth / 18650 & Telescopic + JustGG in SS & brass (just a bunch of tubes in different sizes). Sold it in ECF some time ago. Also had an Esterigon, hated it! (terrible V-drop, awkward 21mm). Wish i had a GG4S though and a Ithaka w/updated piece for sure.

It's not a KTS clone, it's an original (and almost as old as the GGTS) Electric Angel Mod V2 (finnish if i rememberr)

this one here: https://vapemechanical.wordpress.com/2016/09/26/the-ea-mod-by-electric-angel/

Funny, I recently picked a new Esterigon because it was only $50. I actually have a couple 21mm's, the MBugs Gem mini and II and something else too.. The ggtx is my newest, and it hits like a beast. Need some brasso now....

Ok, yea I totally remember that angel now. Very nice. I'm actually on the fence though with grabbing the updated penelope/proteus combo. I know a place that still has some. Any experience with the proteus?

say, care to share where one can find the penelope?

Oh right I forgot it's TC only - never a huge fan either. As for the most recent penelope, as far as I know, it was only ever available with the proteus as a package deal. It's on one of the italian sites. Lemme look. I would almost buy the kit just to get the penelope, looks sweet.
